I think everyone is learning their lesson of what happens if you sit on your moral high horse, and decide to sit elections out. Haven’t the last eight years, especially the last four, proven that.

No one is buying the media this time around.

Good!

The Soviet Union abruptly withered and died when enough people decided they didn’t believe in it anymore.

Thank God Mike Pence is on the ticket... so Trump has shown some very good judgment there. Knowing Pence is VP gives me comfort that he can do great help for the country and influence Trump for the better. To keep our liberties, especially our freedom to worship (which Trump has promised), we have no other choice. Hillary has already informed us that we can no longer hold to unPeeCee Christian views on marriage, life and faith... ALL must worship at the alter of BAAL (the “holy” state). As she, Obama and the D.C. cartel have a 180 opposite view of the meaning of Exodus 20:3.

"...My personal support for Donald Trump has never been based upon shared values, it is based upon shared concerns about issues..."

Fortunately, this is the part that the MSM in particular, and the Left in general just doesn't understand.

Also, though less talked about, Donald is coming around on social conservatism issues as well.

The marriage issue is thorny with disagreements between segments of Christendom. According to something that in evangelical theology is called a “loose biblical view” Donald makes the most of his situation with his current wife by staying with her and thereby ceasing to swing. This does not mean his playboy days are excused, and they are causing difficulties for Donald now which he must surmount with the help of the Lord, but it would be a forgiveness like that extended to King David for Bathsheba whom he acquired in considerably more notorious circumstances. This at least is what I learned from a pastor from the Dallas Theological Seminary.

Roman Catholic and Orthodox traditions are much tighter about this kind of thing, as are even some evangelical readings of the bible. But Donald doesn’t come from any of those.

Donald isn’t every single thing we might wish for America all tied up in a neat package with a bow. However he seems to have the thing that “covers a multitude of sins” i.e. love. He loves America and very demonstratively wishes its good, even the point of boasting about what could be done.

Note to Paul Ryan and Rep. Chaffetz. This is what a man with balls and a spine is like.

Well stated. But people who are still stuck on what the MSM thinks and throws out there about Trump have become as vapid as hardcore Democrats. The MSM have completely ignored the latest wiki leaks which are a huge indictment of the hypocrite Hillary and her two-faced Wall Street/middle-class treatment. I’m not moved a single iota whenever the MSM makes something THEIR priority about reporting - for obvious reasons. Go TRUMP!

Isn’t it strange that Liberals, all of a sudden, sound like the most moralistic,Bible thumping evangelical you have ever heard? Please spare us your faux moral indignation and go back to worshiping St. Hillary of Little Rock.

Trump is a man! Liberals want neutered, ball-less, effeminate, homosexuals for “men”.

Don’t let the lesbians of the world run it; they are just homosexuals that can’t get laid!

President Jimmy Carter - in his own words - told by Robert Scheer of the LA Times:

Jimmy Carter called me the other day to clear up the confusion in his mind about the lust in his heart. Actually he was returning my call, since I had taken umbrage over the treatment in his current book “Living Faith,” of the Playboy interview I did with him during his 1976 presidential campaign.

Although he refers in his book to the hullabaloo over the interview as “one of the best-known events in U.S. political history,” the story behind the interview that nearly cost Carter the election has never been fully told.

During the campaign, Carter had made a big deal about being a devout born-again Baptist. In the interview, which was conducted over some weeks on airplanes and finally at his home in Plains, Ga., he was pressed on the policy implications of his religious views. The evening before our final session, then-Playboy editor Barry Golson and I had dinner with Carter’s press secretary, Jody Powell, and we told him the candidate still came across as uptight. Powell said he would get Carter to loosen up.

The next day, as the interview was concluding, Carter was asked, one last time, if his strong religious beliefs would cause him to be “a rigid unbending president.” His reply, in the form of a long, uninterrupted monologue that I assumed reflected Powell’s prepping, stressed that he did not feel superior to others but rather shared their temptations:

“I’ve looked on a lot of women with lust. I’ve committed adultery in my heart many times. This is something that God recognizes that I will do—and I have done it—and God forgives me for it. But that doesn’t mean that I condemn someone who not only looks on a woman with lust but who leaves his wife and shacks up with somebody out of wedlock. Christ says, don’t consider yourself better than someone else because one guy screws a whole bunch of women while the other guy is loyal to his wife.”

He concluded: “I don’t think I would ever take on the same frame of mind that Nixon or Johnson did—lying, cheating and distorting the truth. . . I think that my religious beliefs alone would prevent that from happening to me.”

I thought at the time that this attack on the late Lyndon Johnson contained the real news. But it was largely ignored by the media until candidate Carter visited Texas and Lady Bird Johnson refused to greet him at the airport. Reporters, led by the ubiquitous Sam Donaldson, confronted Carter as to the accuracy of the Johnson quote. At first, he said it was taken out of context, until I rushed back to the press plane for the taped interview, which I played for Donaldson and others. Carter recanted and made a formal apology to the late president’s widow. That part of the story dropped out of sight and lust dominated the news for weeks.

What Trump said 11 years ago was disturbing and inappropriate. However, If Dr Dobson is correct and Donald Trump accepted Christ as his savior in June and asked for forgiveness; he is now a changed man. Until I know otherwise I will also accept him as having been forgiven.

The Dems and MSM saved this October Surprise specifically to derail Evangelical support for Trump. The aim is to dissuade Conservative Christians to stay home on election day, or vote for a third party candidate, not turn them to vote for Clinton. They know the Conservative resolve to stop Hillary, but they believe they can dissuade Conservative Christians to stay home.

The Dems and MSM have spent so much time excusing and covering up for Obamas and Clintons that they shouldn’t have any standing when making accusations.

That being said, any Christian who takes this bait and stays home on election day, or turns to a third party candidate, is begging for our nation to be destroyed on the alter of socialism, liberalism, and hedonism.

Trump recently accepted Christ as Lord. I believe that he has been forgiven for past sins. So should we not also forgive. Satan is the one who constantly brings up past sins to discredit our salvation. He, Satan, loves to declare us as hypocrites for past stands and actions that contradict our current good life.

Other than Hillary and Bill carrying a Bible, have we ever seen any moral or righteous stand by either of them? Have we ever seen any action or verbal expression by either them, or the current occupant of the White House, condemning Islam as Anti-Christ. The fundamental document of Islam declares itself to be Anti-Christ by stating that God cannot have a son.

All Christian of good conscience should look at the actions of the Clintons (actions not words), and the past actions of the liberal, progressive left (actions not words), and recognize how they have been conducting a cultural war on Christianity and Judaism over the last half century.

Our nation cannot be restored until the lawless actions (actions not words), and inaction (failure to enforce laws they disagree with) of the left are reversed, and our American Republic restored.

We are in a political war where the socialist, progressives, atheist, anarchist, and the forces of the Anti-Christ are on one side, and those who support our American Republic and the Judeo-Christian values and beliefs are on the other.

If the enemy wins this battle, our nation will, without revival, fall to a godless coalition that will fight over the remains after destroying ouy Republic.

Yes, we need a revival, but more importantly we need to preserve our nation as that “City On A Hill”, a nation dedicated to those freedoms and rights guaranteed under our Constitution. A government that can only exist when a moral people take a stand, and not abandon that dream exposed by our Founding Fathers. Christians and Jews who believe and accept God’s Word need to stand with our nation and not abandon the one chance to restore our Republic.

The forces that are aligned against us are strong, but we cannot abandon the fight based upon Trump’s past words, spoken during a moment of pride and bravado in private conversation.

We need to recognize that those who make the charges do not have the good of our country in mind, or the preservation of our Republic.
