Donald Trump’s Anti-Christian Campaign
TIME ^ | Dec. 9, 2015 | Christopher Hale

Posted on 12/12/2015 12:32:29 PM PST by yongin

According to a recent CNN/ORC poll, many white evangelical Christians in the early primary states support Donald Trump. That’s surprising. Trump’s call Monday to bar all Muslims from entering the U.S. is perhaps the biggest act of religious bigotry in modern presidential politics.

Such a proposal is a total affront to the gospel of Jesus Christ. It’s stunning that Trump would ask the American people to punish Muslim refugee families for the sins of ISIS. It’s even more stunning that such positions have traction with the American electorate.

As we come upon Christmas, the business mogul turned presidential candidate has become the modern-day Bethlehem hotel owner saying there is “no room at the inn.” That’s not right, and Christians should no longer support him. We are called by our faith to stand up and say that Trump’s proposal is bigoted. This isn’t who we are. And this isn’t what we stand for.

We must counter Trump’s statements about Muslims and immigrants that sow division and hatred in our nation with the truth revealed to us by the life, death and resurrection of Jesus Christ: that every human being is made in the image and likeness of God. Every person has the right to a dignified life, a home and a future.

ACTUALLY, Islam is a total affront to Christianity in that it denies Jesus Christ as Son of God, denies Jesus Christ was crucified for the sins of man, and denies Jesus Christ was resurrected.

Islam teaches that Jesus Christ was just a prophet, comparable but less important than Mohammad the perverted war monger who founded the death cult known as Islam.

He has to enforce it. How will Trump do that?

Well, if he is elected President, then he will do it the way any other president would, by ordering the employees of USCIS and the State Department to implement the order.

If visas are not being granted to a group of people, then they aren't going to be able to arrive in the US by airplane or ship. Have you ever tried to board an airplane without a suitable visa for the destination country? It's not going to happen. If it does then the arriving passenger won't be able to get through immigration, and they'll be stuck in the international area of the airport.

For people arriving by car, bus, or train, the border patrol agents aren't about to let someone enter the country without a suitable visa.

Of course some people may sneak across the border from Mexico or Canada, but I think Mr. Trump intends to make that a lot harder to do than it is now.

Damn retards.

If 50 people die from Cyanide laced Tylenol, guess which brand will get scrutiny? Guess which brand will get pulled from the shelves? Guess which brand will develop new packaging and self-scrutinize.

There is no self-scrutinization from Islam, just capitulation and whining about being singled out. But that is exactly what is necessary. Perhaps they will decide to weed out their own bad apples *after* they have been marginalized and ridiculed in the open. That is the price of their inaction. Ridicule and "bigotry" is a trivial price to pay for the carnage others have suffered.

Trump should say: Yeah, you guys are the religious bigots, angry that Jews and Christians aren't being barred.


One of these jelly beans is unlike the others. It contains enough Cyanide to kill a dozen adult men or 50 children. Dear liberal swine, demonstrate your lack of discrimination and dive right in. Share them with your children if you dare.

“Islam knows no other way than eradication of the infidel.
I am sure that if it boiled down to the last handful of Christians and he was one of them, he too would have stood up for preservation and hope for mankind.”

You missed the point of what I wrote. I was not discussing an undisputed fact that true Islamists will kill those that don’t believe as they do. Nor was I remotely making a case for being passive in the face of Islamic aggression.

What I was discussing was that Christ loves all men everywhere and died to save all men everywhere IF they will believe in Him as he commanded. His love is not conditional on their belief, only their foregiveness is.

The FR poster I was responding too appeared to be sarcastic in saying Christ “loves” Muslims. I was being clear that Christ loves ALL sinners and unbelievers be they Muslim or a rich businessman that only nominally associates himself with true Christianity.

The Apostle Paul in the New Testament actively hunted down and put Christians to death until God intervened and brought Paul to faith in Jesus Christ. He went from being a killer to one of the most influential persons of the Apostles and wrote most of the books (letters) of the New Testament. If Paul can be saved, then so can a Muslim. Of course they will no longer be Muslim! They will be a genuine Christian.

The point is that God through Jesus Christ loves all...even the wicked and violent...and desires their conversion.

That image is super-freaky. I just told a young guy about that image in the store just this evening. I had not seen it until I saw it in one of your posts.

Really??? You got some scripture that says we're not supposted to be religious bigots??? Of course you don't because you don't know what you are talking about...I can post scriptures that tells us we ARE supposed to be religious bigots...

Every person has the right to a dignified life, a home and a future.

You want to show us the scripture reference for that one as well??? Don't bother looking, you won't find it...

Christians must work against Trump and ensure Muslims are welcomed in the U.S., because as Pope Francis recently reminded us, they are our brothers and sisters.

No doubt the muzlims are Catholic's brothers and sister but they are not Christian's brothers and sisters...

This is also not far off from including Obama and his killer foreign policy. What happened to Christians and Muslim families who were not ISIS, is on Obama’s head.

There is so much blood on Obama’s hands. “Steal, kill, and destroy” are the only things Obama has done well.

Somebody just sent me this link: http://www.americanthinker.com/blog/2015/12/disgraceful_white_house_hanukkah_celebration.html The same guy who desecrated Christmas with Mao Tse-Tung ornaments has desecrated Hanakkuh with a leftist shouting Muslim chants and boasting of the murderous Ferguson “protests”. None of this is accidental, and none would be done by a Christian. It WOULD be done by the same Islamist whose DOD had a Muslim imam curse the bodies of the Extortion 17 victims (who may well have been set up by this murderous regime as an apology to Obama’s Islamist buddies for letting the world know that Bin Laden is dead)...

Obama is a liar, trained by Molech-worshipping followers of the Father of Lies. By their fruits we will know them, and Obama’s fruit is ugly as sin.

Every spirit that acknowledges that Jesus Christ has come in the flesh is from God.

But the Muslims DO acknowledge that Christ came in the flesh.

They assert that He is NOT the 'son' of GOD.


Two different things.

If the Antichrist is, as certain Protestants believe, a single man or entity then it is Mohammed and the society of Orcs he spawned.

These are the ONLY verses where the word ANTICHRIST is used...


 
      
 

These are the only places that antichrist is mentioned.
 
 
 
1 John 2:18
  Dear children, this is the last hour; and as you have heard that the antichrist is coming, even now many antichrists have come. This is how we know it is the last hour.
 
1 John 2:22
Who is the liar? It is whoever denies that Jesus is the Christ. Such a person is the antichrist -- denying the Father and the Son.
 
1 John 4:3
but every spirit that does not acknowledge Jesus is not from God. This is the spirit of the antichrist, which you have heard is coming and even now is already in the world.
 
2 John 1:7
I say this because many deceivers, who do not acknowledge Jesus Christ as coming in the flesh, have gone out into the world. Any such person is the deceiver and the antichrist.
