An Open Letter to Evangelicals

Trump evangelicals

Republicans (a synonym for evangelical),

There’s a story about a faithful man who, upon hearing of a major flood coming to his city, ignored calls to evacuate.  After turning away two attempts to save him when the waters rose, he drowns and goes to Heaven.  Upon arriving, he asks God why he was not spared.  After all, he was faithful and praised Him constantly.  The Lord responding by saying that He had provided a warning and two attempts to save him.  What more did he need?

I feel the same way about evangelicals.  After the disastrous results of George Bush and Donald Trump, how can anyone believe that they were anointed by God to lead this country?  Wouldn’t they have been more successful had God REALLY anointed them?  How do you explain September 11th, Katrina, Iraq and the economic meltdown, in addition to the dumpster fire of the Trump presidency?  They are giving God and evangelicalism a bad reputation.

Evangelicals, how many more signs do you need to come to the conclusion that God is not too pleased with the way your professed fellow evangelicals represent, I say pervert, Christianity and faith, in general?  Did George Bush follow God’s will?  Are Trump, Franklin Graham, Jerry Falwell, Jr., et. al. really listening to God?  Or are they just using God for their own personal gain, power and ego?.

Wake up!
