Of course, the Huckster is no atheist. But does he have the mark of a man who fears God? Is he humble, studious, and prudent? Do we have anything to fear from him? It cannot be said with confidence that the answers to these questions are known.
On the other hand, there is at least one man in the presidential race who does indeed fear God. A man of great humility and prudence. In fact, this man is a dedicated Christian: Dr. Ron Paul. Surprise!!! You probably have not heard much about the good Dr’s faith. Perhaps word of Ron Paul’s faith has not reached many because of the media’s campaign to blacklist him (the New Hampshire Fox News presidential debate comes to mind). The primary reason, however, you have not heard about Ron Paul’s faith is because, unlike the Huckster, Dr. Paul approaches his relationship with Christ from a humble posture.
The Huckster brags about his spirituality. As a result, he is heralded and hoisted up by the evangelical mainstream as a man worthy of praise. Whereas, Ron Paul keeps his faith close to his chest–in his heart, in fact. And what does he get in return: mocked at the debates (if not banned altogether), rejected by the greater Christian community, abused by the establishment of his own party. Yet, somehow, his message shines through to a small and dedicated minority. Does Ron Paul’s plight sound familiar to anyone? Think about it.
So I ask: who is the real Christian candidate?
