10/15/2018 Who Do You Think You Are To Talk About Trump? Abraham Inetianbor Life - Christianity - Politics - Discrimination Translate Who Do You Think You Are To Talk About Trump? Select Language ▼ By Abraham Inetianbor Posted On September 23, 2018 This question in the title is often asked of me with profanity especially from Trump loving evangelicals but I have the clean version on this post's title as you can see. As long as I live, I will continue to speak against bullies, divisiveness, discrimination, spread of hate and racism. I'm not telling you who to vote for because politics is corrupt left and right. But don't go out of your way to defend the evil actions of those you voted for when you know better; and I do not have the godly right to do the same either. Book, chapter and verse may be at stake in our churches these days but basic human decency is what is at stake in our society today. This is one of the reasons we can't seem to be able to communicate book, chapter and verse to people anymore because they don't want to hear it from us after we go out of our ways to defend the evil deeds of our favorite political figures. https://www.abrahaminetianbor.com/2018/09/who-do-you-think-you-are-to-talk-about.html 1/7
10/15/2018 Who Do You Think You Are To Talk About Trump? I'm by no means perfect but thankfully I do not seek compadres whenever I see the need to take a stand for a cause I believe in even if it's just me standing. I'm not seeking one now. Those who know me know I'm definitely not someone looking to please people by following "the crowd" for a ride along because my loyalty is not to any human. I respect and love people. The love and respect remains even when I disagree with someone. I'm that "popular kid" in high school that other popular kids hated because I refused to take their side when they bully others. I am that kid with all the recipe for popularity but refuses to cook it up because popularity contest in not and never was part of my DNA. Not every decisions I've made in life have been right and not every decision I make going forward will be right but my everyday prayer is for God to stir me away from any decision that would cause me to deny His existence completely or take His grace for granted. Like I always say, I'm not perfect and never will be. But someone consciously waking up daily to make the lives of other people miserable simply because of the color of their skin is definitely something I will not stand for. I prefer to be called "Mr. Misunderstood" over being someone who wants to fit https://www.abrahaminetianbor.com/2018/09/who-do-you-think-you-are-to-talk-about.html 2/7
10/15/2018 Who Do You Think You Are To Talk About Trump? in to any circumstance that involves pleasing the crowd or following the crowd with no purpose. Hate mail use to be from the white nationalist but now, the ones I get from the so called evangelicals make the KKKs look like saints from heaven. I'm yet to understand why a "love preaching" people would hate someone so much that they use phrases like "want your head on a stick." If your plan is to behead those who disagree with your political belief, what makes you different from the Islamic extremists? It's sickening to know how far some bible preaching people are willing to go for someone like Trump who I nicknamed bar-jesus for his actions. Just know that your threats will not stop me from speaking the truth. I think it's time to start asking ourselves if our political affiliation is bigger than the cross.Far be it for me to say I "hate" Trump. I cannot condone his despicable actions and look at my kid in the eyes with a straight face. Wrong is wrong regardless if my name is Abe or Trump. Yes, I recently wrote a book titled "The Christian Way - Christianity is not a title - It's a way of life." I wrote the book almost the same way I write my blog posts, which is to "pen down" my thoughts about a particular topic or issue and make it available to those who will listen; then I move on. I've also been critical of Trump's leadership because I'm sick and tired of some Christians who are willing to crown him "King David" and call his leadership style "biblical leadership" that "promotes Christianity" simply because he said "Two Corinthians" and "Merry Christmas" to the same people he just finished demonizing with insensitive and profanity-laced insults? The devil can do better than that because the devil actually believes in God (James 2:19-20) unlike an unbeliever who is using the name of God in vain to get votes. Yes, I use to call the actions of Trump "bar-jesus" way before his political life and now I'm lost for words. This was way back in the day before the rest of the country knew the "political Trump." Bar-jesus" as you may know is the Jewish sorcerer in Acts chapter 13, whom Paul the apostle described as an enemy of everything that is right or good. "Full of deceit and Trickery" as stated in verse number 10. The Trump I know truly believe that any one that is non "white" is a threat to the American agenda to be a "great country." No, I don't hate him because hate is a very strong word, I believe I know him enough and know that he's been the true definition of deceit and division for years. Forget about what you've seen him do or heard him say politically. https://www.abrahaminetianbor.com/2018/09/who-do-you-think-you-are-to-talk-about.html 3/7
10/15/2018 Who Do You Think You Are To Talk About Trump? I'm speaking from a real life point of view, which I have the right to do. Let's not even get into the bullying part. Steve Bannon in the white house was no accident. All the racists coming out of the woods to support one of their most popular defenders, did not do so when Bush was in office. President Bush is a white man but you don't hear the white nationalist describing him as their "savior" or "leader" nor did he ever find a way to condone their actions. Now the 2018 republican candidate for governor in Florida who was endorsed by Trump, calls himself a "mini Trump" and "Trump replica." One of his campaign ad is him reading a book of Trump to his toddler while encouraging the toddler to build a wall with something that looks like a set of lego bricks because he wants to be Trump in every way possible. This same Florida candidate is the same person who spoke in support, not once, not twice, at least 4 times at events organized by white nationalist and the likes to promote racism and discrimination. If you are still mad because I speak against racism, you are just wasting your precious time and I'll keep praying for you. Speaking the truth about someone's action is not character assassination. Wrong is wrong no matter who the person is. When I'm wrong, it's my duty to apologize and move on; it's not the time to give excuses or attack back. https://www.abrahaminetianbor.com/2018/09/who-do-you-think-you-are-to-talk-about.html 4/7
10/15/2018 Who Do You Think You Are To Talk About Trump? If I spend time worrying about everyone's opinion of me, then I'll worry myself until I go six feet under, and still not have the answers as to why people believe or think what they think. So, when I say I don't care about what people say as long as I do my very best, I literally mean I know and hear inaccurate things that are extremely far from the truth like night and day but I don't loose sleep over any of it. Does it bother me at first when people assassinate my character? Yes it does. Last time I checked I'm human but the disappointment disappears just as fast. Life is too short to be loosing sleep over things that you do not have control over. I've learned to be "wise as a serpent and harmless like a dove" when dealing with people in general. What matters more should be the things that God does, to put your adversaries to shame and make a fool of those who wish failure on you. Imagine if men were gods, thankfully they're not. I tell my daughter almost on a daily basis I prefer she treat people with respect and dignity than come home with straight 'A'. Having both will be a blessing but you get the point. So the next time we choose to defend evil actions simply because we prefer money over morals; money over manners; or party over humanity, just remember the words of Gary Vay that said: “Legacy is greater than currency.” - Gary Vaynerchuk Abraham Inetianbor https://www.abrahaminetianbor.com/2018/09/who-do-you-think-you-are-to-talk-about.html 5/7
