“We voted for Trump not because we are racist, sexist, homophobic, anti-Muslim haters but because we believed him when he declared that only he could guarantee a conservative Supreme Court and stop the government from requiring us to violate some of our deeply held Christian convictions and values.”
“Regardless of your primary concerns for the Supreme Court and the
separation of church and state, you still knowingly
elected an unfit, unstable person who’s
already started surrounding himself with
people who share his vision of how to make
America great again. We’re angry and nervous
because America hasn’t always been great for
everyone in the past and it looks like the next four years won’t be great for
everyone either.”

WHAT FOLLOWING CHRIST LOOKS LIKE
Philippians 2:1 If then there is any encouragement in Christ, any consolation from love, any sharing in the Spirit, any compassion and sympathy, 2 make my joy complete: be of the same mind, having the same love, being in full accord and of one mind. 3 Do nothing from selfish ambition or conceit, but in humility regard others as better than yourselves. 4 Let each of you look not to your own interests, but to the interests of others.

THINK LIKE JESUS!5 Let the same mind be in you that was in Christ Jesus, 6 who, though he was in the form of God, did not regard equality with God as something to be exploited, 7 but emptied himself, taking the form of a slave, being born in human likeness.
And being found in human form, 8 he humbled himself and became obedient to the point of death—even death on a cross.

“Jesus ultimately overturned all conventional understandings of supremacy, lordship, sovereignty, and
power by purging them of violence—to the point where he himself chose to be killed rather than kill.”

mind of Christ
What would it look and sound like if every follower of Christ
emptied ourselves of our convictions and concerns and
allowed God’s Holy Spirit to fill us with convictions and
concerns about the well-being of others, even those whom
we have reason to fear, mistrust, dismiss, or dislike?
