A word to those outside the church observing (with dismay or glee) the tortured moral justifications of Christians who–for whatever reason–continue to side even now with the immoral Trump in this election: I’m so sorry. We’ve let you down.
How can you believe in the truth and holiness we offer when we don’t seem to want it ourselves? I don’t know if you’ll ever bother listening to us again. God knows, we don’t deserve for you to.
But trust me–the Savior we proclaim is real, no matter how far His people fall. Whatever our failures, there is salvation in no one else but in the Man who hung on a cross to pay for your sins and mine.
