Republicans say what many Christians want to hear. In addition, because they say they are Christians many believe them and faithfully but blindly support them. Eventually, they find out how immoral they are.
At this point their moral principles are tested. They either suppress their conscience (very easy to do) or they speak out (very hard to do). When they speak out, they lose their friends, but that is only the beginning. If they continue to speak out they put their life in danger.
Nonetheless, this is the path Connell chose to take. It is the very path Christ took.
Christians either need to deny Christ or take on the challenge presented by Him.
John 18:37 …“For this I have been born, and for this I have come into the world, to testify to the truth. Everyone who is of the truth hears My voice.”
If they would do what Connell did, the Republican Party would reform.
