  1. "not idolize Trump" I've been following Jesus since before you were born, son. I don't idolize Trump, nor does anybody on the Daily Wire. DW gets grief all the time for being frank about Trump's flaws. Taking action in the world when possible isn't spiritually inappropriate, it's what disciples of Jesus DO (by their fruits ye shall know them). "or try to make him president" I'm reminded of what Abraham Lincoln said when Stephen Douglas accused opponents of slavery as promoting marriage between blacks and whites. "just because I do not want a colored woman for a slave, I do not necessarily want her for a wife. I do not need to have her for either. I can just leave her alone." In a similar manner, I find I can easily support Trump for president without idolizing him. "If you actually put the kingdom of heaven first, you would be at peace in this chaotic period." If you can allow the country to go to hell without doing what you can to stop it, you're not putting the kingdom of God first, you won't be at peace in your heart, or in your neighborhood. And you shouldn't. "Even if Kamala Harris is elected, so what... What is the significance of her election?" More abortions. More crime. More poverty. More misery. More poisoning and mutilation and moral and spiritual corruption of children. More censorship and persecution and less scope for charitable deeds, truth, and the gospel, less freedom. More of a bunch of bad things that no person of goodwill would welcome, and Jesus DOES call us to be persons of goodwill. There is no such thing as being too pious to do good in the world. "To do good is noble, but to teach others to do good is nobler, and it's far less trouble." - Mark Twain. "the last days" You mention the last days, but I wonder if they are real to you at all. Jesus will not only set the world right, he will separate the sheep from the goats. You won't be rewarded for sitting on your self-righteous thumbs. Repent! Matt 25:14 - "¶For the kingdom of heaven is as a man travelling into a far country, who called his own servants, and delivered unto them his goods." "And unto one he gave five talents, to another two, and to another one; to every man according to his several ability; and straightway took his journey." "Then he that had received the five talents went and traded with the same, and made them other five talents." "And likewise he that had received two, he also gained other two." "But he that had received one went and digged in the earth, and hid his lord’s money." "After a long time the lord of those servants cometh, and reckoneth with them." "And so he that had received five talents came and brought other five talents, saying, Lord, thou deliveredst unto me five talents: behold, I have gained beside them five talents more." "His lord said unto him, Well done, thou good and faithful servant: thou hast been faithful over a few things, I will make thee ruler over many things: enter thou into the joy of thy lord." "He also that had received two talents came and said, Lord, thou deliveredst unto me two talents: behold, I have gained two other talents beside them." "His lord said unto him, Well done, good and faithful servant; thou hast been faithful over a few things, I will make thee ruler over many things: enter thou into the joy of thy lord." "Then he which had received the one talent came and said, Lord, I knew thee that thou art an hard man, reaping where thou hast not sown, and gathering where thou hast not strawed:" "And I was afraid, and went and hid thy talent in the earth: lo, there thou hast that is thine." "His lord answered and said unto him, Thou wicked and slothful servant, thou knewest that I reap where I sowed not, and gather where I have not strawed:" "Thou oughtest therefore to have put my money to the exchangers, and then at my coming I should have received mine own with usury." "Take therefore the talent from him, and give it unto him which hath ten talents." "For unto every one that hath shall be given, and he shall have abundance: but from him that hath not shall be taken away even that which he hath." "And cast ye the unprofitable servant into outer darkness: there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth." "¶When the Son of man shall come in his glory, and all the holy angels with him, then shall he sit upon the throne of his glory:" "And before him shall be gathered all nations: and he shall separate them one from another, as a shepherd divideth his sheep from the goats:" "And he shall set the sheep on his right hand, but the goats on the left." "Then shall the King say unto them on his right hand, Come, ye blessed of my Father, inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world:" "For I was an hungred, and ye gave me meat: I was thirsty, and ye gave me drink: I was a stranger, and ye took me in:" "Naked, and ye clothed me: I was sick, and ye visited me: I was in prison, and ye came unto me." "Then shall the righteous answer him, saying, Lord, when saw we thee an hungred, and fed thee? or thirsty, and gave thee drink?" "When saw we thee a stranger, and took thee in? or naked, and clothed thee?" "Or when saw we thee sick, or in prison, and came unto thee?" "And the King shall answer and say unto them, Verily I say unto you, Inasmuch as ye have done it unto one of the least of these my brethren, ye have done it unto me." "Then shall he say also unto them on the left hand, Depart from me, ye cursed, into everlasting fire, prepared for the devil and his angels:" "For I was an hungred, and ye gave me no meat: I was thirsty, and ye gave me no drink:" "I was a stranger, and ye took me not in: naked, and ye clothed me not: sick, and in prison, and ye visited me not." "Then shall they also answer him, saying, Lord, when saw we thee an hungred, or athirst, or a stranger, or naked, or sick, or in prison, and did not minister unto thee?" "Then shall he answer them, saying, Verily I say unto you, Inasmuch as ye did it not to one of the least of these, ye did it not to me." "And these shall go away into everlasting punishment: but the righteous into life eternal."

  2. DN "I don't idolize Trump, nor does anybody on the Daily Wire." ​ @Jack-Alexander_J "The DW idolizes politics above Christ" because the " You changed your ground. You accused DW of idolizing TRUMP. When I deny this you call me a lair and assert something irrelevant to your charge of idolizing Trump. "DW does not emphasize holiness, rather it focuses on CRITICAL COMMENTARY." It is a political channel. That's not a crime. And it's pro-Christian, for that matter. "Voting is giving your approval and validation" It is not. It is a choice. Choose life. "" If you can allow the country to go to hell without doing what you can to stop it, you're not putting the kingdom of God first, you won't be at peace in your heart, or in your neighborhood. And you shouldn't." "You're wrong because the book of Revelations says that the last days, to the sinners, shall be days of sorrow and mourning." How does that make me wrong? God prophesies that evil will come, that is not an excuse for not fighting evil. When He says "Occupy until I come" that does not mean occupy space. "You need to evangelize (Matthew 24:14) and intercede for the lost.""Electing Trump as president will not take away the sins of those who sin." I do those things. I also do good in the world. God doesn't call us to do evangelize and pray OR do good. He calls us to do all three. You spuriously condemn those who obey, while refusing to obey yourself. "Electing Trump as president will not take away the sins of those who sin." Neither will brushing my teeth. That is not a reason not to brush my teeth. Electing Trump will result in fewer abortions. You either care about that or you don't. Apathy is nothing to brag about. " it's not possible to make this Earth perfectly just." It is possible to improve the world around you, and it is always sin to make the perfect the enemy of the good. "What matters is your relationship to Jesus Christ." My relation to Jesus Christ is "servant". This means doing what He says to do. "This is how Jesus thinks" It's not your job to read Jesus' mind. It is our job to OBEY HIS COMMANDS. None of this is an argument against doing good in the world. And insofar as you are arguing against that, you're arguing against God. "You're not the savior." No, but I follow Him. You should try it. "Why do you call me "self-righteous"? Am I self-righteous because I affirm God's standards of righteousness and it makes you uncomfortable?" No, you are self-righteous because you set up your disobedience as superior to obedience. I contradict you because you're wrong. I convict you of sin in word and deed. James 4:15 - "Therefore to him that knoweth to do good, and doeth it not, to him it is sin." My emotions aren't engaged. You needn't project your guilt on me. I have comprehensively proven your objections irrational and unbiblical. You insist on a false dichotomy between piety and good deeds whereas biblical piety includes good deeds. James 2:17-26: "Even so faith, if it hath not works, is dead, being alone. Yea, a man may say, Thou hast faith, and I have works: shew me thy faith without thy works, and I will shew thee my faith by my works. Thou believest that there is one God; thou doest well: the devils also believe, and tremble. But wilt thou know, O vain man, that faith without works is dead? Was not Abraham our father justified by works, when he had offered Isaac his son upon the altar? Seest thou how faith wrought with his works, and by works was faith made perfect? And the scripture was fulfilled which saith, Abraham believed God, and it was imputed unto him for righteousness: and he was called the Friend of God. Ye see then how that by works a man is justified, and not by faith only. Likewise also was not Rahab the harlot justified by works, when she had received the messengers, and had sent them out another way? For as the body without the spirit is dead, so faith without works is dead also."
