I'll try and be brief. My spouse, who I love, was "thinking about (and may have)" voting for KommieLa as a reformrenda against the Republicans and because he doesn't believe T is a real Christian because he said in an interview he doesnt believe in confession and can't describe his faith. One of the reasons my spouse disagrees with the re'pubs is their policy on the boarder and their acception of a man/T with bad character: -he cheated on Malania -he paid Stormy (dont get me started on this one) -he plans on using lots of tariffs
Ok- i think the reasons are b.s. BUT I think the root is that my spouse believes Trump is a fake Christian (the irony is not lost on me....so Trump is a milk toast Christian...at least he doesnt kill babies and celebrate sexual dabachery)...
Ok, so the ask: does anyone know any pre-political career statements Trump has made about his faith? Videos would be great. I think anything after his presidential run would be dismissed as pandering to Christians...i mean i'd still take if it is a strong statement ...i am trying to build a case that T may be a flawed Christian but still a real one.
Any help/guidance/tips would be well appreciated!!
Thank you!!
We are ALL flawed Christians. None is without sin. Your sin is no worse than my sin. Jesus will take care of liars and cheats that do NOT repent. Tell him to get off his "high holier than thou" horse and pray for his own forgiveness. He is using 'man-made' rules to judge someone when he doesn't know THAT persons soul or that persons relationship with the Lord. Also, tell your spouse...That GOD has used MANY MANY 'non believers' to do His bidding. Cyrus, Nebuchadnezzar, Paul (Saul) to name a FEW! What Trump SAYS really doesn't matter, actually what he believes doesn't either, just that the Lord IS using him. God Bless
Absolutely. OP, I know you love your husband and you want him to see the truth. I have learned the hard way that we cannot walk anyone else's faith walk for them. How many of us have had to defend ourselves against the "Trump is your god/savior" accusation? Maybe that's the idea your husband is resisting falling prey to, which is a good thing. But he has to realize that every person's relationship with God is theirs alone, and that includes him! How would he like it if other people tried to judge his heart? The best thing you can do is model that for him by not engaging his ideas about Trump's spiritual status, which is only God's to judge. Stop trying to convince him. Pray that the Holy Spirit will speak truth into his heart and believe God will work according to His good will. Then let Him do what only He can. That will be more effective than anything you could possibly do.
