The Ten Commandments Re-examined

American Evangelicals have embraced President Donald Trump with open arms. They acknowledge he has some flaws, but claim he is doing great things for Christians in America. In the Gospels, Jesus said that His followers should abide by the Ten Commandments. This isn’t what makes us Christians, but it demonstrates our Christian faith in action. Let’s see how Trump measures up to this standard.

Following are the Ten Commandments, as stated in Exodus 20:2-17 and Deuteronomy 5:6-21, with some examples of how well Trump is doing with each one.

He gets a fail on all of them.

I moved this here to Free Byte so you @Spice can break out your own extended commentary on this and I have the opportunity to "Byte Back"

Thanks Outlaw. I wasn't sure where to put it.

On July 18, 2015, Trump was asked by moderator Frank Luntz if he had ever asked for God’s forgiveness. Trump replied, “I’m not sure I have. I just go on and try to do a better job from there. I don’t think so. If I do something wrong, I think I just try and make it right. I don’t bring God into that picture.” He has never retracted that comment. The Bible makes it clear that we are all sinners and that we need God’s forgiveness for our sins. By refusing to “bring God into that picture,” Trump is saying he doesn’t need God, thus putting himself above God.

Well good for him for wanting to do it right. The bible also says that good works won't get you into heaven. We all need God's forgiveness and if Trump thinks other wise, he is sorely mistaken.
