“Have Evangelicals Who Support Trump Lost Their Values?”
New York Times
Donald J. Trump stands astride the polls in the Republican presidential race, beating all comers in virtually every demographic of the primary electorate. Most illogical is his support from evangelicals and other social conservatives. To back Mr. Trump, these voters must repudiate everything they believe.
Jesus taught his disciples to “count the cost” of following him. We should know, he said, where we’re going and what we’re leaving behind. We should also count the cost of following Donald Trump. To do so would mean that we’ve decided to join the other side of the culture war, that image and celebrity and money and power and social Darwinist “winning” trump the conservation of moral principles and a just society. We ought to listen, to get past the boisterous confidence and the television lights and the waving arms and hear just whose speech we’re applauding.

“Donald Trump and the Rise of the Moral Minority”
The New York Times
“Mr. Trump’s popularity among the evangelical rank and file suggests that even if his Christian critics can offer appealing models for a new ‘moral minority,’ they may have hit a political dead end. On the campaign trail, anger and xenophobia play better than repentance and grace.”

America, America 10-a7–15 The spirit of God says, “America, America, oh how I love thee America, America, oh how I have chosen thee! For as England was to the D-Day invasion, so shall America be for my end time harvest. For England was the Headquarters, the hub from which the D-Day assault was launched, so shall it be for my America for the end time harvest. For as England had men, women, equipment, food, money, weapons, and supplies of all kinds which poured in from all over the world, so shall all these things pour into my chosen America.
America I have chosen you as the launching platform for the world-wide assault on the spiritually oppressed peoples of the earth. People will say how are we chosen? It’s as if America is frozen. Am I not the God of the universe and all of creation? I have heard the cries of my people that have sought my face, and I WILL HEAL THEIR NATION! People will ask how will I do this. I shall do this in two parts.”
First- The Spirit of God says, “Army of God, out of the darkness! I COMMAND YOU TO ARISE AND TAKE YOUR PLACE! For I have given you extra time, mercy and grace. Go, Go, Go, do not slow down. Begin to take and hold your ground, for there is no more time to waste. America will once again be the great light. The enemy will say, “Oh the Light, the Light it shines so bright, there is nothing else left to do but take flight.” And indeed they will. The sign will be, a mass exodus in the natural as the spiritual flee.”
Second- The Spirit of God says, “The gate keeper, the gate keeper, the President of the United States is the spiritual gate keeper. I have chosen this man Donald Trump and anointed him as President for such a time as this. Can you not see this? For even in his name, Donald- meaning world leader, (spiritual connotation faithful). Trump- meaning to get the better of, or to outrank or defeat someone or something often in a highly public way.
This man I have chosen, will be a faithful world leader, and together with my army, will defeat all of America’s enemies in the spiritual and in the natural. You will see it manifest before your eyes. I will use this man to shut gates, doors, and portals that this past president has opened. He will open gates, doors, and portals this past president has shut. My army shall not be silenced; they will begin to see he is the one I have chosen. They will begin to rally around him and keep him covered in spiritual support, and as you gain ground they will say America is not frozen.
The seeds, the seeds, why is no one asking about the seeds? What about all the seeds America has sown since her birth? America has never received her harvest. For I will use President Trump and my army to bring back to America all that she has sown. This will be used for my harvest. America will prosper like never before in her history as a nation. All of the financial seeds you have sown around the world, food, clothing, 90 percent of my gospel that has gone through out the earth, has come from my chosen America. Her blood has been spilled on foreign soil to free the oppressed so that my gospel could go forward. America your harvest is here! lt shall parallel with your spiritual harvest in the natural, so do not fear.”
The Spirit of God says, “The border, the border, is a 2000 mile gate, that’s flowing across with demonic hate. I will use my President to shut this gate and seal it shut. lt must be shut. Then I will use him and my army to root out evil structures that are still there, to the point that the government will begin to call on my army. They will
