Jesus' ethics are so extreme and holy that they look ridiculous to the world. quoted, not mine

2 Corinthians 11:3-4 King James Version 3 But I fear, lest by any means, as the serpent beguiled Eve through his subtilty, so your minds should be corrupted from the simplicity that is in Christ.

Many people simply do not want to change their lifestyle.
 
As an Evangelical Christian, I would just like to apologize for what we as white Evangelicals have done. The support of Trump despite his many flaws is not right. It grieves me that my tribe is putting politics above their faith.

I voted for Trump, but my vote was a vote against Kamala, who is essentially a communist. But the way white Evangelicals are defending Trump makes me sick to my stomach. This is not what I signed up for. I signed up for being Biblical in all things, not being a Trump apologist, and excusing terrible behavior.

Also, on behalf of being a Christian from the US, I want to apologize to my fellow Christians in other countries. I can't imagine what they think of us. Not all of us are like this, though it is a huge problem for white evangelicals to defend the government so much when "their guy" is in power.

So much grief over politics today. The US has become a propaganda mill on both sides, admittedly, and we are a very sinful people who put expediency above principle.

Lord, forgive us...
