    Now Hank. A person who rejects Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior by default deny the Trinitarian relationship of the Father, Son and Holy Ghost. You can't affirm what you reject at the same time.

    By rejecting Jesus Christ, you're rejecting His deity.

    He is by definition, an anti-Christ.
    If I walk into a bathroom and see a man having sex with another man, by deed alone it is righteous to judge that person to be in sin.

    If a person rejects Jesus Christ, by deed alone, he is by definition, an anti-Christ.

    I'm not seeing it. He's a wicked, wicked man and it shines through like the sun coming up on Easter morning. Everything he does confirms who he is and what he is not.

    OK for you however I personally cannot come to the conclusion that he is an anti-christ by his deeds alone.

    Zaac's definition of "antichrist" focuses around opposition to Christ; thus, deeds that are in opposition to Christ's teachings are "antichrist." Trump's (and Hillary's, for that matter) actions indicate he and she are in opposition to Christ's teachings.

    Hank's definition focuses around the biblical concept of false teachers; thus, teachings contrary to the bible, which lead others astray, are "antichrist." Trump is not attempting to lead anyone to a religion or religious believe other than Christianity.

    I guess it depends on which definition you ascribe to.

    Obviously you are describing yourself, considering the number of posts you make about it. However, preferring one candidate over another is not the definition of idolatry.

    Really, Hillary got the Margaret Sanger award so there is no difference there. Also, Evolution supports eugenics--survival of the fittest.

    1. Zaac, it would be embarrassing to the Democrats to have the Evangelical vote.

    2. Evangelicals ain't what they used to be; the older generation is gone with the wind and the younger ones are more liberal and less likely to believe that Scripture is perfect.

    3. Hillary says half of the GOP are deplorables, and she probably says that all whites are racists.
