Subject: Evangelical leader Beth Moore calls Trumpism ‘seductive and dangerous'

And it keeps on coming...as it will continue to...even
where I expect it least... ;)

"I have never seen anything in these United States of
America I found more astonishingly seductive &
dangerous to the saints of God than Trumpism," the
founder of Living Proof Ministries said in her tweet."

"(RNS) — As supporters of President Trump’s
allegations of voter fraud have persisted in
questioning the results of the election five weeks
since it was called for Joe Biden, some evangelical
leaders have had enough.

Karen Swallow Prior, an evangelical author and
professor, tweeted Friday (Dec. 11) that she was
ashamed to have voted for local and state GOP
candidates. Many of whom backed lawsuits challenging
the election.

'What a bunch of money-grubbing, power hungry,
partisan cowards who care nothing about conservatism,'
Swallow Prior, a self-described life-long
conservative, said in her tweet.

Author and columnist David French published a column
Sunday on The Dispatch titled, 'The Dangerous Idolatry
of Christian Trumpism,' maintaining that 'the frenzy
and the fury of the post-election period has laid bare
the sheer idolatry and fanaticism of Christian
Trumpism.'

Perhaps most notably, Beth Moore, a popular Southern
Baptist author and speaker, took to Twitter Sunday to
voice her frustration and seeming bewilderment at the
Christian zeal for Trump, saying that in her more than
63 years, she has 'never seen anything in these United
States of America I found more astonishingly seductive
& dangerous to the saints of God than Trumpism.'

With a warning to her nearly one million followers
that she would be blunt, the founder of Living Proof
Ministries posted a thread in which she called on
Christians to 'move back' from Trumpism and insisted
'Christian nationalism is not of God.'

Moore had particularly strong words for her 'fellow'
Christian leaders, who she said have a responsibility
for protecting their congregants.

'We will be held responsible for remaining passive in
this day of seduction to save our own skin while the
saints we’ve been entrusted to serve are being
seduced, manipulated, USED and stirred up into a
lather of zeal devoid of the Holy Spirit for political
gain,' she tweeted."
