Trump is just not an evangelical Christian. Baby or otherwise.

It gets silly trying to square that circle.

Trump has not been a born-again Christian, but that does not mean that he hasn’t become one recently.

The reaction of some here over this article, reminds me of the time Jesus could not do a miracle in a certain city due to their unbelief.

My family and I have been praying for Mr. Trump’s salvation and I know there are other believers here who are praying for his salvation. And believe you me, if you’re going to have a prayer life, you better add some faith to it if you expect to see an answer from God.

When it comes to biblical salvation, who is a Christian and who isn’t a Christian, is not always an easy thing to determine.

Over the years, I’ve seen many professing Christians live like the devil. And I’ve seen those who live moral and upright lives, disregard the saving grace that’s in the gospel of Jesus Christ.

Receiving Christ as your personal Savior is a simple and childlike act of faith. And people are saved in different ways at different times in their lives.

One person may receive the Lord Jesus out of fear of eternal punishment, while someone else receives Him like the French minister who said, “I was kissed awake.”

None of us knows whether or not Mr. Trump bowed his heart and received the gift of eternal life in Christ, but I do know that these meetings with evangelicals (and charismatics) are not his first encounter with the gospel.

A few years ago, my pastor would see Mr. Trump in the audience on several occasions at David Jeremiah’s church in California. The services are taped live for broadcast. So you see, God may have planted seed in him before these recent meetings. By the way, David Jeremiah is a sound, biblical pastor and a fine godly man as is Mr. Falwell Jr, Mr. Graham, Mr. Jeffress, Mr. Dobson, etc.

God squares chaotic amoebae, not just circles.
