For example. when brothers discovered I subscribed to Newsweek, Time, and U.S. News & World Report, I was advised to only read U.S. News & World Report (a conservative news mag). And then, my open minded reading was such a concern that news of it was spread around to other brothers, who also talked -- I mean 'fellowshipped' -- to, "with," me about my selection of reading of "worldly" material.

I admit that, if you are a Christian it can be confusing. Afterall, God is a conservative, and Jesus is a liberal. Shouldn't Christians of the New Covenant therefore be liberal?

That's why I'm confused by evangelicals going for Trump ... not to mention that his whole life has been devoted to mammon.

Mat_6:24 "No man can serve two masters: for either he will hate the one, and love the other; or else he will hold to the one, and despise the other. Ye cannot serve God and mammon." - Jesus
