No two masters

If you are a minister or priest (or anyone else) at a Christian church, you should stand in the pulpit this next Sunday (or Saturday) delcaring whether you follow Jesus Christ or Trump.

Jesus said, “No man can serve two masters.” Since Trump and his administration are the antithesis of Christ and His teachings, you and your congregations can no longer delude yourselves. You can no longer give your okay to all the un-American and un-Christian happenings the Trump administration is doing and still call yourself a Christian.

If you are a Republican in Congress spouting “family values” yet support this administration as it tear babies and small children from parents (who have applied legally for asylum), then you are condoning kidnapping. There aren’t enough negative adjectives that can be used to describe this kind of ungodly behavior.

Perhaps the most powerful example is, again, when Jesus stated how abhorrent it is to mistreat children. Members of Congress: Pass a law prohibiting this or resign from Congress. If you claim to be Christian, denounce all un-Christian behavior taking place in the Trump administration. If you cannot, you have made your choice of masters. Trump or Jesus Christ. You can’t serve both.
