After President Bush, we had President Obama who showed us how far from Christian values our nation has drifted. Many younger voters have no church experience and get their values from the secular press. President Obama openly attacked the value of life by  promoting abortion, attacked the value of law by pushing to defund the police, and attacked the value of the family by pushing Gay privilege and gender confusion. He also attacked the church and tried to suppress Christians who sought to promote Christian values. They thought they had control of the elections and could remain in power, but were shocked at the response of the voters who elected Donald Trump to restore Christian values. He sought to remove programs that violated the value of life, the rule of law, and the family, but he was hampered because he remained within the law and would not make laws through executive order and did not have the support of Congress who could make the laws. However, he repealed many of President Obama’s executive orders that violated the law and undercut moral values. The voters apparently forgot how bad things were under President Obama and believed Joe Biden when he said he would restore America. However, he followed the same destructive path as President Obama. Americans have shown that they still have some support for moral values by reelecting President Trump. He now has a Republican dominated Senate and House but unlike Democrats who are united in tearing down moral values, Republicans are not united in supporting them. While Democratic party leaders pressure their representatives to support the party policies, regardless of what their voters want, Republicans still seem interested in listening to the voice of the people, so it is important for voters to be informed on the issues and let their representatives know how they want them to vote. While laws can prevent actions, like killing, stealing, and divorce, the church must teach values and lead people to Christ to help people really understand and believe the moral values, which can eliminate the hatred and greed that lead to the killing  and stealing. Presidents like President Bush and President Trump can open the door to allow the church to teach moral values, or Presidents like President Obama and President Biden can close the door and prevent the church from teaching them. That is why it is important who we elect. For a full understanding of Christian values, see my series of lectures on Christian values vs manmade values.
