I'm not a liberal whatsoever but I've seen many Christians support many liberal ideas and it's confusing to me

A true Christian IS a Liberal.

That depends. Liberal is a vague word. You cannot be a Christian and deliberately practice or condone anything the Bible calls sin. You cannot be a Christian and reject the Biblical account of creation either. Jesus himself describes the events found in Genesis (Matthew 19:4) By trying to meld Christianity with evolutionary process, you call God a liar and Christianity a lie.

I don't think so because Liberals are pro Communism and anti Christianity

Not by today's meaning of liberal. Today's liberal orthodoxy includes treating prenatal homicide as a sacrament, homosexual relationships as sacrosanct, and religious freedom as something to be infringed or eliminated. Since Christians believe we should not murder, that sex is only reserved for husbands and wives, and that God makes us free and endows us with the right to political freedom, Christians cannot be liberals.

Yes, I'm an example of that. As a follower of Jesus Christ and his teachings, my beliefs fall under the side of the left. I tell people, I'm a liberal because I'm a Christian.

The term "liberal" got hijacked. "Liberals" today believe in all kinds of filth that even a generation ago would have been unthinkable to other liberals. We should be liberals.



Christ-followers have been abandoned by democrats, and seduced by republicans / tea-partiers / trumpists. We need our own party.

Yes, in fact Liberal Christians are good people too.

You may not agree with their politics but you must see eye to eye with them on Jesus
