People often describe how their faith influences their election decisions. Christians should compare the policy positions of our two major presidential candidates to the Gospels. Which candidate more closely aligns with what Jesus directs? Hint: it's not Trump.
The central message of the Gospel is to love God and love one another. This is made manifest through healing sick people, clothing and feeding hungry people, being kind to the strangers who dwell among you in your land, respecting women and children, and responding to conflict with non-violence.
A logical analysis suggests that what Trump represents is at odds with the core values of the dominant religious population in our nation. Christians who support Trump should ask themselves why they do, and carefully reconsider their motivations.
