It's very simple. If a man has no moral center, if he has ambition but no faith, if he does not demonstrate humility or integrity, I will never vote for him for president. I don't care who he is, what he's done, what he says, or what positions he holds. None of that will matter when we are living under his tyranny, and tyranny is sure to follow when you give unspeakable power to a man who believes he is God.
I'll put this another way: if you vote for a man who worships himself over God, you deserve the tyranny that happens next.
You deserve it because you chose it, just as the souls in Hell deserve Hell because they chose it. If you go to the ballot box and say, "I am going to do my part to put this self-absorbed pagan in charge of my nation" you are directly consenting to the inevitable result. You are embracing it. You are literally asking for it.

In every case where a Christian has tried to defend his/her support of Trump, the reply (again, with all due respect) seems to boil down to one of two replies:
1) "If [insert pet topic here, such as immigration, economy, etc.] isn't fixed, none of those social/moral issues will matter!"
2) "Trump has changed, because he says so!"
Not buying either one... sorry. If we agree to evil in order to "save the economy, secure the borders, etc." (also known as "selling our birthright for a mess-o'-pottage"), then we've lost the only battle that matters. God won't ask us how well we secured the borders (as important as that is), nor will he ask us how well we fixed the economy (as important as that is); he'll ask us about our moral choices which formed our souls.
Riiiight.
Romney. McCain. Dole.
Another, “I will only vote for Jesus himself” voter?
Matthew 6:24:
“No one can serve two masters. Either you will hate the one and love the other, or you will be devoted to the one and despise the other. You cannot serve both God and money”.
Take your sanctimonious hyperbole and....you know.
Think Jimmy Carter -- enthusiastic Bible thumper; but as President, only one has done worse in our entire history.
We have tyranny now. The only ordained Christian in the race is Mike Huckabee. So that is who you are suggesting we support?
How about a Dominunist? Do I have to vote for that?
We already have tyranny, so cut the BS.

I’m beginning to think that liberals aren’t the only group with a mental disorder. This is sheer desperation. I remember in 1976 we elected a devout Christian and put him in the White House. How did that work out??
They vote for the “anoinTED”. His Daddy says so.
Who would you sell your birthright to?

With all due respect, I listen to a lot of people on YouTube that articulate conservatism better than most anyone else, And most of them are outspoken atheists:

So I think this whole if you aint Christian, then you are a closet communist line of nonsense needs to stop, because it seems like there are plenty of people that are “Christians” that have been real good at screwing over us real well.
>he’ll ask us about our moral choices which formed our souls.
Get back to us when he wipes out the islam scum that is raping and killing innocents. islam has no purpose on Earth except to spread evil. It should not be here. When it goes poof, we’ll deal with the personal stuff.
This is probably the dumbest argument that’s made in elections.
Do you have some sort of Faith-O-Meter that can read minds and hearts?
