Donald Trump often claims to be a Christian, yet his actions don’t align with the call Jesus places on us. In John 10:11 (NIV), Jesus says, “I am the good shepherd. The good shepherd lays down his life for the sheep.” A genuine believer stands ready to serve and sacrifice for others. This contrasts sharply with Trump’s approach to power, where might is right seems to be his guiding principle. It’s painful to see him halting support for those in dire need and siding with corrupt leaders like Putin. That stance runs counter to the compassionate and selfless nature Christ demonstrated.
Psalm 82:2-4 (NIV) warns, “How long will you defend the unjust and show partiality to the wicked? Defend the weak and the fatherless; uphold the cause of the poor and the oppressed. Rescue the weak and the needy; deliver them from the hand of the wicked.” This passage underscores that true leadership protects and serves those who are vulnerable, rather than empowering the wicked. Trump’s willingness to stand with oppressive leaders shows that he is unwilling to defend the weak. He would rather satisfy those in power than stand with people under attack. This is not the heart of a Christian whose decisions should echo Christ’s compassion and justice.
Christians are called to reflect Jesus in every aspect of life. That means helping the oppressed, offering mercy, and modeling integrity. When leaders dismiss suffering and uphold injustice, they step away from Christlike behavior. Our faith compels us to stand up for righteousness, even if it’s inconvenient or unpopular. We should be a voice for the voiceless, not a comfortable ally for the powerful who do harm.
