The writer of the letter “Trump’s policies go against Jesus’ teachings” (May 23, TribLive) claims President Trump and his administration are performing works directly against the teaching of the Bible and that he may be “missing something,” but thinks the administration is doing the exact opposite of Gospel teachings.

I believe he is saying that “nationalism” to protect the sovereignty and people of the United States should be sacrificed to people entering the United States illegally who refuse to assimilate and desire to change western Christian culture while committing heinous crimes.

The United States feeds and clothes more people than any other nation on the planet, and the bulk of it is done by Christian organizations, not the corrupt charities of Bill Gates, the Clintons, the United Nations and other so called church charities. Individuals who fail to recognize these things are obviously “missing something.”

So, faith without works is dead? Well I guess the Abraham Accords and historic Middle East peace deals are dead, according to some writers.
