Christians don't define Christianity... Because they are unable too.One thing is for sure the White House puts out a lot of hatred towards christen conservatives... And the main stream drinks the koolaid up like they are dying of thirst.
Christian conservative is an oxymoron. You cannot truly be Christian and hold the view that the poor are lazy and deserving of their fate, or that Muslim refugees should be turned away, nor should you sit in judgement of sinners, unless you are without sin.
Jesus said "Blessed are the poor, for theirs is the Kingdom of Heaven". He told his followers to sell their possessions, give the money to the poor, and follow him.
All of his teachings are about love, sacrifice and service to others. Followers are urged to tithe, and he didn't suggest that the rich give a lesser percentage of their income either.
It is easier for a camel to pass through the eye of a needle than it is for a rich man to enter the Kingdom of God. Or "The love of money is the root of all evil". "Do not seek your treasure here on earth, where moth and rust destroy and thieves break in and steal"
How anyone can interpret those passages as anything but an admonishment against seeking material wealth, I will never know.
They always have an excuse why the way they WANT to live is so much better than how Jesus told his followers to live.
They aren't Christians. They just pretend to be.
