Nobody is saying that God endorses Republican policies exclusively, every Republican candidate, or "every word that proceedeth forth from the tweet of Trump," but He has commanded us to "Choose Life, that you and your children may live." (Deut 30.19)

Do you also believe that God had no interest in Trump's decision to move our Embassy to Jerusalem? No interest in unwavering Republican support for Israel going back decades?
Ya know what? I'm going to assume that your concern for the unborn originates from your sense of compassion and give you an "amen."

But, now you're going to use that as basis for justifying genocide? Really bro? You and the almighty omniscient God, the very Creator of the Canaanites can't come up with a better Corrective Action Plan than that?

And you even go extra-biblical and exonerate your Catholic brother Cortez the Killer! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m-b76yiqO1E That was gratuitously partisan even for a Fundamentalist.

Good that you choose life for yourself and your children. But, to judge everyone else? ...wise to leave that to God the judge of the living and the dead. Judge not lest ye be judged said Jesus. Isn't he supposedly your "Lord"?
