Apparently, many Christians allow party identity and biases to override their sense of morality when they vote for a candidate solely on party identity. They are playing with fire. Christian morality is fundamentally tied to the Ten Commandments. Any individual who knowingly and disdainfully breaks those commandments is considered of questionable character.
By word or deed, President Donald Trump has repeatedly violated the Ten Commandments and often boasted of his transgressions. He bragged that he could kill someone publicly in New York City and not lose a single vote. The documentation of Trump’s misdeeds is voluminous, yet many Christians voted for him and continue to support him.
Trump appears a magnet for corrupted individuals and an infecting plague for many who attempt to loyally serve the president. Sadly, Vice President Mike Pence, who seemed to be a decent man, has followed suit with a number of other GOP leaders and become a Trump toady. New York Times columnist David Brooks aptly pointed out that for a Christian to set aside morality and blindly support a political party is idolatry and idolatry is heresy.
Are some Christians flirting with heresy for political expediency or bias?
The end does not justify the means.
