text: True, our president is not preaching the gospel, nor should he in his current role as Commander in Chief. Rather than respond to our elected leader like one of the men that went up to the temple to pray (not the tax collector), why not all of us come down from our own pulpits and respond like how the apostle Paul exhorted Timothy?  Pray for all who are in high positions....this is good and pleasing in the sight of God our Savior.  As for preaching the Gospel of Jesus, that's for all professing Christians who have actually placed their trust in his atoning sacrifice for sins. In doing so, we are (like Paul) to preach Christ crucified - that is to say what he has done for us not how we should try our very very best to live like him. That's the good news and is the message, when heard in the Spirit, that transforms his people.
