Wayne Grudem, a prominent theologian, writes in a column for Townhall.com that Donald Trump is the “morally good choice” for president.
“I do not think that voting for Donald Trump is a morally evil choice
because there is nothing morally wrong with voting for a flawed
candidate if you think he will do more good for the nation than his
opponent,” Grudem said. “In fact, it is the morally right thing to do.”
Grudem writes that Christians should vote for Trump instead of writing
in a candidate or not voting at all because the election will be close.
“Some may feel it is easier just to stay away from this messy
Trump-Clinton election, and perhaps not even vote,” he said. “But the
teachings of Scripture do not allow us to escape moral responsibility by
saying that we decided to do nothing.”
If Clinton is elected, she would replace Justice Scalia on the Supreme
Court with a liberal, Grudem said. That court could overturn the ban on
partial-birth abortion or change the rules on religious liberties.
Meanwhile, Grudem says, Trump has promised to uphold conservative values.
“The most likely result of voting for Trump is that he will govern the way he promises to do, bringing much good to the nation.
“But the most likely result of not voting for Trump is that you will be
abandoning thousands of unborn babies who will be put to death under
Hillary Clinton’s Supreme Court … And you will be contributing to a
permanent loss of the American system of government due to a final
victory of unaccountable judicial tyranny,” he said.
