A lot of people truly detest our president. A lot of people are thinking that he is a most unsavory character and a terrible choice as leader of the free world. Some people think that his election was illegitimate, some people think that he has committed heinous crimes.
I didn't think I wanted Donald Trump for president in 2016. I looked at the field of candidates and I hoped that anyone else would get in.
They didn't.
Trump became the candidate, and he was running against Hillary Clinton.
Trump claimed to be pro-life. Hillary is, was and probably always will be vehemently pro-abortion.
That simplified my choice, but I wasn't sure whether Trump was just playing to the Christian base or whether he really believed what he was saying. That was something that I had to wrestle with.
This election things are different.
Trump is still a blusterer. He is still obnoxious and he just can't keep his fingers off the Twitter keys, but as much as I find that distasteful, he has proven himself a champion of life.
He has stood behind the promises that he made and he has shown that he will do what he can to fight the culture of death.
Not one of the Democrats running has shown even the slightest inclination in that direction.
Yes, there are many issues that we need to think about.
Immigration, poverty, economic disparity, and such, but which one of those is more emergent than the need to end the culture of death?
The blood is flowing all day, every day. Children are being extracted, cut up, and disposed of.
How can anything be more important than that?
We are going to be up against some really tough conversations with family members, friends, and co-workers over the next nine or so months.
We want to be sure that all we say we say in charity, but we can't let this go.
There are going to be two choices.
One will be in favor of stemming the flow of blood, and turning the tide.
The other will be openly in favor of continuing the practice of child-murder and walking back the progress that has been made.
Life or Death. It's Biblical.
