I would like to respond to Linda Larsen’s letter of Dec. 10 in which she asks, “Why do evangelicals support Donald Trump?” She suggests that perhaps they know not what they do.
On Donald Trump’s way to the White House, he met with evangelical leaders and shared with them that he was for the same things they were, such as life, religious freedom and Israel. He asked that they would be with him. They said in that case they would. He also partnered with a born-again believer, Mike Pence.
In his letter of Dec. 2, Ron Brandon referenced the ancient king, Jehu, whom God anointed to exterminate the house of Ahab and Jezebel. So the question is, “Can God raise people for His purposes?” The answer is yes. He is God. Perhaps evangelicals do know what they do.
