I think this speaks more to CT, than it does to our President.
Trump Should Be Removed from Office
It’s time to say what we said 20 years ago when a president’s character was revealed for what it was.
MARK GALLIDECEMBER 19, 2019
It's amazing that a Christian would seek to punish a man that's committed no crime, and that has been so responsive to Christian political ideas.
But CT is now supporting the sham impeachment and in my view, showing their true Character.
We want CT to be a place that welcomes Christians from across the political spectrum, and reminds everyone that politics is not the end and purpose of our being. We take pride in the fact, for instance, that politics does not dominate our homepage.
I think this says it all. They don't like Trump's stance on life. They want big tent Christianity. The want pro-choice liberals included. I think that's what this is about.
I heard this kind of non-sense from a pulpit a few years ago, and ended leaving the church. "Don't talk about politics to democrats. We want them to come to church with us." Red flag for me, ended up leaving, but this is exactly where CT is coming from.

God will do what God chooses to do. If God chooses to remove Donald Trump from the Presidency, he will be removed. If God chooses to keep him in leadership, he will remain President.
What I know is that we must pray for the peace of the city as we live in exile. -
I think he's referred to them as a left wing publication, but, Fox News poll showed a drop in evangelical support for Trump also.
Do a poll here on the BB and see if the trend holds true here. -

In reading the article there is no mention by the editor that people should vote for a democrat. All the article says is that Trump should be removed from office by impeachment and Senate vote.
The outcome of that would be to have a person who has shown his faith to be real, Mike Pence, become President. I am not against Pence becoming President as he has a much more virtuous personality than President Trump, in my opinion. -

As I have said, God will retain President Trump or remove him. God is judging the USA. We are getting the leaders our corrupt hearts deserve. -
Ukraine, our great ally, lost Crimea on Obamas watch. Maybe they should have impeached Obama for violating a defense treaty. -

The fact is that Christians should not be silent just because they support the platform of one political party over another. When someone in the camp acts immorally and contrary to God's moral law, should Christians be silent and look the other way? -

Trump has more integrity than any President I’ve ever voted for.
I voted for him the first time with great relipuctance.
BUT
He’s kept his promises.
He’s put conservatives on the courts.
He’s the strongest pro-life President we’ve ever seen.
He’s put Americans back to work and stood up against the nations that take advantage of us
He’s attempted to keep Americans safe from foreign illegal entrance.
And he’s stood up against the entrenched political bureaucracy plaguing this nation.
I don’t care for his personal life
I don’t care about his religious life
I don’t even like his tweets... (what ever they are)
but he’s earned my vote in the election.

Once, while at a "Men's Retreat" the fellow brought in to provide the music was something of a rustic. He had recently proclaimed his faith, and therefore had not "grown up in church." His off the cuff remarks contained profanities. He did not know very much about "bible doctrine" and made "mistakes." But he did his best to do his job, and many were blessed with the aid of his contribution.
Mr. Trump is trying to do what he thinks is best for our country, and I believe scripture teaches we should all be praying for him and his family. OTOH, we should rebuke those "holier than thou" hypocrites who know how to hide their flaws. -
I do not suffer from “Trump-ification” and I do consider he is under the control of God, just as Obama was.
There is much bluster and attitude that is offensive, but liberals have used offensiveness as a badge of honor my whole life. Some reaping is good for them.
The media outlets have failed in truth telling.
The “prince of the air” has done terrible things, and is yet to be stronger in deceitfulness.
Just glad to be going home.
Wouldn’t it be wonderful if we all spent Christmas at home? -

Hebrews 12:22-24
But you have come to Mount Zion and to the city of the living God, the heavenly Jerusalem, and to innumerable angels in festal gathering, and to the assembly of the firstborn who are enrolled in heaven, and to God, the judge of all, and to the spirits of the righteous made perfect, and to Jesus, the mediator of a new covenant, and to the sprinkled blood that speaks a better word than the blood of Abel. -
Since when do Christians condone bearing false witness? -
The best we can do as Christians is to support him, and applaud the good he does. -

The fact that other Presidents have done the same thing is a moot point. Those past Presidents are not presently in office. Second, a person who claims to be a Christian is held to a higher standard than a pagan. Thus President Trump is held to the standard of anyone who is a servant in the Kingdom of God.
