“Our primary job as Christians is not to act as unpaid support squadrons for one or the other of these politicians.”

Huh?

See Matthew 28: 19 & 20 !

19 Going therefore, teach ye all nations; baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost. 20 Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and behold I am with you all days, even to the consummation of the world.

I doubt Christ was referring to political talking points.

“See Matthew 28: 19 & 20 !”

I don’t see how secular politics is even remotely associated with evangelization and Baptism. But I’m glad you brought it up, because it highlights the underlying problem: this obsession with secular politics on the part of some Christian conservatives borders on idolatry.

While we’re reading Matthew, we should also take a hard look at Matthew 22: 15-22.
