昨天美国参议院“打倒Trump大会”开幕，开头有个“政治很正确，或者神学很正确”的“祷告”。可是，那些把“打倒Trump大会”开到了参议院的政治领导人们难道真的相信“耶稣基督”吗？

那些美国政治领导人明明地在说着做着与十诫和其它耶稣基督教训的戒律相悖的话语和事情，却又假惺惺地顶着上帝的名义，假冒为善。

许多有话语权的教会和媒体机构的领导人（包括某些华人教会和媒体机构）长期以来忽悠“基督徒和教会不讲政治”，那么那些现在开“打倒Trump大会”的人，为什么要顶着上帝的名义，作祷告呢？既然顶着上帝的名义作祷告，那是不是就一定是“基督徒”或者是教会之中的人呢？

现在，美国参议院或者众议院是有多位自称基督徒的人，甚至是还有作牧师的人呢。如果“基督徒和教会不讲政治”是“神学正确”的话，那么，请那些忽悠“基督徒和教会不讲政治”的人告诉我，那些自称“基督徒/牧师”的议员们还是“基督徒”吗？千万不要告诉我“那些议员不是基督徒”噢。

无论何种情况，某些教会和媒体机构的领导人（包括某些华人教会和媒体机构的领导人）都在虚伪，假冒为善。

有相当数量的教会都承认当前美国的教会已经日渐衰微，然而同时二党高层还有不少人自称是基督徒，虽然他们事实上已经站在了基督信仰的对立面，悖逆耶稣基督教训的戒律，损害上主的荣耀。其中相当数量的议员都还是律师出身，他们在日渐自由化日益非基督信仰的学府受过训练，深得“把黑的说成白的，白的说成黑的”的诉讼手段。

面对不公义的事情，教会（包括某些华人教会和媒体机构的领导人）掩面当作没有看见，也在“基督徒和教会不讲政治”的忽悠之下，掩口不语。那些人在香港掩面捂口，在台湾掩面捂口，在加国掩面捂口，在美国颜面捂口，面对中国的极端意识形态的政治，仍然掩面捂口，任由上主的荣耀和公义被人明目张胆地攻击。教会虚伪地掩面捂口，还能自吹自擂“作盐做光”吗？还能蒙上帝的祝福或者庇护吗？

许多基督徒目睹社会普遍堕落，高科技娱乐领域反基督势力的合流而自感无力；说是无力，其实就是教会（包括某些华人教会和媒体机构的领导人）无力；说“无力”都算是文过饰非避重就轻了，说是溃败也不为过。

有人说教会之所以溃败，极大可能是因为二个致命的神学问题：

1.教会普遍接受了“不讲政治”的片面教导，那是一种过度属灵化不符合《圣经》教导的神学错误；使教会丧失了在诸多（教育，医疗，及人之老幼，慈善，保家国防等等）领域“作盐做光”的社会影响力；并导致社会公义观价值观生命观等等观念的普遍扭曲，让上帝的智慧成为嗤笑的对象。

2.对《罗马书》13章“你们要顺服那掌权的”错误解读，进一步导致教会丧失了反抗力。如果政府掌权者已经普遍站立在反基督的立场，你一个教会凑上去表忠心，那还怎么传上帝的圣洁公义和律法呢？又如何解读“顺服上帝不顺服人是应当的”呢？罗马书13章被错误解读是个极为普遍而严重的问题。

在这两个错误神学教导下，教会就只能走上绥靖主义路线，成为希特勒时期的教会。在这个末世中反基督是常态，是再正常不过的事，但教会也跟着犯糊涂就实在太不应该。有人说每一个神学的发展，都是无数灾难的凝练；反过来，每一个错误神学，也会带来无数灾难。

我曾经去一个“free church”宗派的教会，恰逢他们因为神学观念的差异要辞退一位牧师，不同意见的会众发起了一次说明会。会议上许多信众情绪激动，满眶眼泪。起头要辞退牧师的那些人则极力反驳。我听着听着，忍不住了，说，“你们还是先跪下祷告忏悔吧，然后再看看是否需要继续辩论？是否要继续辞退那位牧师？”

现在目睹美国参议院，类似的情形再现了。Trump固然有错误，需要忏悔，需要悔改，但是那些议员们难道都是义人吗？

祈祷那些口称上帝手捧圣经的道貌岸然的议员们能在大会前，诚心诚意跪下向上帝祷告忏悔己过，再反思检讨一下是否需要“把Trump打倒在地，再踏上一只脚，叫他永世不得翻身”的毛式文革？

Impeachment of Bill Clinton

Clinton was impeached on December 19, 1998 by the House of Representatives. The House voted 228–206 to impeach him for perjury to a grand jury and voted 221–212 to impeach him for obstruction of justice.Clinton was only the second U.S. president (after Andrew Johnson) to be impeached. Impeachment proceedings were based on allegations that Clinton had illegally lied about and covered up his relationship with 22-year-old White House (and later Department of Defense) employee Monica Lewinsky. After the Starr Report was submitted to the House providing what it termed “substantial and credible information that President Clinton Committed Acts that May Constitute Grounds for an Impeachment”, the House began impeachment hearings against Clinton before the mid-term elections. To hold impeachment proceedings, the Republican leadership called a lame-duck session in December 1998.

While the House Judiciary Committee hearings ended in a straight party-line vote, there was lively debate on the House floor. The two charges passed in the House (largely with Republican support, but with a handful of Democratic votes as well) were for perjury and obstruction of justice. The perjury charge arose from Clinton's testimony before a grand jury that had been convened to investigate perjury he may have committed in his sworn deposition during Jones v. Clinton, Paula Jones's sexual harassment lawsuit. The obstruction charge was based on his actions to conceal his relationship with Lewinsky before and after that deposition.

The Senate later acquitted Clinton of both charges. The Senate refused to meet to hold an impeachment trial before the end of the old term, so the trial was held over until the next Congress. Clinton was represented by Washington law firm Williams & Connolly. The Senate finished a twenty-one-day trial on February 12, 1999, with the vote of 55 not guilty/45 guilty on the perjury charge and 50 not guilty/50 guilty on the obstruction of justice charge. Both votes fell short of the constitutional two-thirds majority requirement to convict and remove an officeholder. The final vote was generally along party lines, with no Democrats voting guilty, and only a handful of Republicans voting not guilty.

On January 19, 2001, Clinton's law license was suspended for five years after he acknowledged to an Arkansas circuit court that he had engaged in conduct prejudicial to the administration of justice in the Jones case.
