Never Trump. This time Harris. Always Jesus.” These were the words not of Taylor Swift or Pete Buttigieg but of Ray Ortlund, a card-carrying member of “Big Eva,” in a recent Threads post.
In his opinion, following Jesus means rejecting Donald Trump and embracing Kamala Harris this election.
Ortlund is the founder of and pastor at Immanuel Church in Nashville, where Christianity Today editor-in-chief and outspoken ex-Southern Baptist Russell Moore is coincidentally the minister in residence. Ortlund recently joined a webinar from the left-wing Bible resource organization The After Party, a project of Moore, Curtis Chang, and their Never Trump buddy David French. So it was no surprise when French popped into Ortlund’s comments to say, “This is the way.”
When the post didn’t go over well, Ortlund deleted it but didn’t apologize. Instead of Sorry, I regret what I said, Ortlund opted for My critics “misinterpreted” me and I should have known they would. In fact, he even responded with a hearty “you are most welcome” to a commenter who thanked him for his original message.
Ortlund isn’t the first of his ilk to endorse Harris. French wrote an entire article from his perch at The New York Times titled “To Save Conservatism From Itself, I Am Voting for Harris,” in which he twisted in knots both the truth and himself to explain his impending vote for Kamala. Of course, every attack he hurls against Trump — lying, violence, cruelty, sexual sin, support for abortion, and suboptimal foreign policy — is either false or far worse under Democrats, specifically the current administration in which Kamala Harris is second-in-command.
Thus the so-called Christian Trump denouncements and Kamala endorsements aren’t new. But attaching them to a love for Jesus — as if the answer to “WWJD?” is “elect Kamala Harris” — is particularly egregious. After all, it doesn’t take a seminary degree to understand that when Jesus implored the little children to come to Him, it wasn’t an invitation to abort them. Yet while the Biden-Harris administration was busy last week imprisoning pro-lifers who pray at abortion mills and peacefully protest the killing of unborn human lives, Ray Ortlund thinks the best way to love those neighbors is by cheering their inquisitors.

It's becoming obvious that MOST priests, pastors, clergy, officers of the various churches....ARE FRAUDS.
Help me out here. What is the Proverbs passage of what happens when you make a slave into a master, or a fool into your teacher?
What happens when you put a whore into a position requiring honor and integrity?

There is a passage of scripture where Jesus is speaking. He says that "many" will come in His name saying they/He is Christ. There is a double meaning to that phrase. Clearly we see that there are "Churches" that preach Christ and there are many which preach heresy and just call themselves "Churches" for the tax breaks.
Whenever a "Church" deviates from the scriptures or ignores certain parts of it, you know that they are preaching heresy. God gave us His word so we would know the difference.
