Dear God: Help!

Robert Jeffress, Pastor of the Dallas First Baptist Church and one of the 'key evangelical' leaders supporting President Donald Trump recently said, "God gives President Trump the authority to 'take out' North Korean leader, Kim Jong-Un." I'm not sure, which God Jeffress is referencing but I'm confident it is NOT the God who sent his Son, Jesus Christ to die for the sins of man.

Jeffress is the type of 'pontificating' false profit who does more harm than good when it comes to nudging 'fence sitters' towards eternal salvation. Jeffress would have you believe that America and its people are favored over other nations' peoples. Jeffress visual perspective of Christ is certainly not that of a dark skin nappy-haired man. Jeffress is narrow-minded.
 
We have heard this kind of blasphemy from spiritual and political leaders before as 'so-called' Evangelicals invoke God's name in an attempt to justify their actions. Rev. Pat Robertson said Hurricane Katrina was God's wrath upon the sin city. He also said the Hati earthquake was God's  retribution for a 'deal' made by its leader and Satan in past history.

Rev. Franklin Graham maintains that Donald Trump is a modern John The Baptist who paved the way for the coming of Christ...Trump, Graham claims is paving the way for Mike Pence, a true man of God. This kind of rhetoric is harmful and lacking in truthful evidence; in other words, its crap!

We all recall that time when President George W. Bush was asked by a reporter, "Before making the decision to bomb Iraq, did you speak with your father (meaning Former President Bush)?"  President G. W. said, "I spoke to my Father in heaven." Really? God signed off on a war of destruction, which our omnipotent creator knew was based on faulty reasoning? Horrendous Blasphemy! Shameful!
If leaders have a charge the they should own their choices and decisions. Please don't 'lay-it-off' on Christ...He already took enough of our mess.
Oh my God! Help us know YOUR truth.
