Christians should vote for Hillary Clinton

[Amanah]

The case against Hillary is obvious.

CT makes the case against Trump:

”Most Christians who support Trump have done so with reluctant strategic calculation, largely based on the president’s power to appoint members of the Supreme Court. Important issues are indeed at stake, including the right of Christians and adherents of other religions to uphold their vision of sexual integrity and marriage even if they are in the cultural minority.

But there is a point at which strategy becomes its own form of idolatry—an attempt to manipulate the levers of history in favor of the causes we support. Strategy becomes idolatry, for ancient Israel and for us today, when we make alliances with those who seem to offer strength—the chariots of Egypt, the vassal kings of Rome—at the expense of our dependence on God who judges all nations, and in defiance of God’s manifest concern for the stranger, the widow, the orphan, and the oppressed. Strategy becomes idolatry when we betray our deepest values in pursuit of earthly influence. And because such strategy requires capitulating to idols and princes and denying the true God, it ultimately always fails.

Enthusiasm for a candidate like Trump gives our neighbors ample reason to doubt that we believe Jesus is Lord. They see that some of us are so self-interested, and so self-protective, that we will ally ourselves with someone who violates all that is sacred to us—in hope, almost certainly a vain hope given his mendacity and record of betrayal, that his rule will save us.”

I think we are at a crossroad where we will have to concede that our only hope is in God.

I posted this quote somewhere else because I thought it was such a riveting statement. Unfortunately, I don't think enough Christians are awakened to our idolatry, our trusting in the political horses and chariots of the GOP.

Wouldn't it be more of an ACT OF GOD for an HRC Administration to somehow do away with legalized abortion?

There is no miracle in getting someone who thinks exactly like us to do what we want them to do.
