"Three Reasons Not To Sweat Trump's Picks"

While much of the world is having conniption fits over Trump's Cabinet picks, some of us have bigger fish to fry. For instance:

Ever wonder what life would be like if Christ had not come?

No Christ = No Christianity

No big deal some might say.

Aside from the fact that there would be (1) no salvation, (2) no heaven,  (3) no life after death, how has the worldwide spread of Christianity affected secular history?

"Although Greece gave western civilization much art, philosophy and literature, and Rome provided law and government," contends Barry J. Beitzel, Ph.D., contributing editor of The Nelson Study Bible," it was the Christian worldview that provided":

• the basis for modern science
• efforts to alleviate poverty
• universal education
• the ideals of equality and liberty

"The God of order and beauty provided for the view that nature was predictable and orderly. The Christian belief that all humanity is a creation of God gave a foundation to the self-evident truth of life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness," Beitzel insists.

"Since people are made in the image of God they are valuable apart from their station in life, amount of wealth, or utility to society. People are helped, educated and protected simply because they are made in God's image. Loss of these Christian ideals would undoubtedly be a tragic loss to the well-being of humanity," Beitzel concludes.

And he's right. Strip the world of Christianity and the world will strip humanity of its worth.

"At that time you were without Christ. Having no hope, and without God in the world" (EPHESIANS 2:12).

"I have come that they may have life, and that they may have it more abundantly" (JOHN 10:10).

Our advice? Give politics a rest during this holiday season and go back to being Fishers Of Men. 

A wise man once said: "Abundant life includes salvation, eternal life, God's life. It speaks not only of endlessness, but of quality of life. With Christ, life on earth can reach much higher quality, and then in heaven it will be complete and perfect." - Barry J. Beitzel, Ph.D.

"Trump 2.0...Make America Whole Again"

Now that the shock and awe has worn off, President-elect Donald J. Trump has a big-league job on his hands: spend the next 4 years making America great again.

Our job? Heal the Great Divide.

Let's face it, gang, this election cycle has been brutal. It has turned Americans against each other to a degree not seen in recent history. People are at each others throats--from the anger-filled Left, to the Trump Train gloaters--things have gotten down right ugly.

 A recent Reuters/IPSOS survey indicating the election has caused:

• 15% to stop speaking to a family member or close friend
• 14% to block a family member or close friend from social media

We call this the "Trump Effect"--you're either with him (meaning the conservative platform) or against him.

CBN News spoke with Anne Graham Lotz (Billy Graham's daughter) about what Christians can do to help heal the divide.

"I think the most critical thing that God's people can do is pray. Two is to repent of our sin and three is to keep our focus on God," she said. "God is the One who will bring healing. It's not a political party or one particular person. Our faith has to be in God."

Lotz went on to say, "Prayer made the difference in the election, particularly among white, born-again evangelicals, who voted 81% for Trump, not to mention the countless churches across the nation that committed to praying for the election."

"I see what happened in this election as being a tremendous movement of God in answer to prayer."

Her challenge to God's people? Don't stop praying, God's not finished with us yet.
