So no matter how 'decent' and 'Christian' Mr Biden may try to present himself to an unsuspecting, readily credulous, even, dare I say it, gullible (American) public,
a true - as in biblically orthodox, and Christ-following - 'believer' doesn't wink at sin...and/or gloss over or otherwise dismiss well-founded and substantiated allegations, and certainly not those of a serious nature...
...which I at least consider those emanating from his former aide, Tara Reade, to most definitely be.
As my own Master and Lord Himself so aptly put it two millennia ago (admittedly in an altogether different context, yet it is not irrelevant to mention here):
Unless you (yes, presumptive Democratic Presidential nominee Joe Biden) repent, you too will [ultimately] perish.
For, just as the 'good folk' of your native land, the U S of A, never ever really 'owned' as in publicly confessed and *repented of their great sin in relation to their countrymen and women - not only black Americans but native Americans as well - from centuries of slavery through the following century of segregation and all the rest, onto the systemic police brutality and violence (of the following half century) upon which the torch of light and truth has only now at last been brought to bear and shine,
unless you too own and publicly confess to and repent of - let the political fallout come as it well may - your own 'crime and misdemeanour' thereabouts, apart from proving yourself (never mind President Trump's own well-known and arguably way more egregious acts both personal and 'presidential', whether pre- or post-inauguration) wholly unfit to assume the world's most powerful political post - alongside that of the Papacy/Vatican/Holy See of Rome - according to my Bible at least, and on associated good biblical authority, you not only are not in any way, shape or form a 'decent' person, much less 'Christian',
but, once again according to my reading of the word of God, will one day perish, and that for good!
*For true biblical repentance involves the sort of thing that my own nation of New Zealand and South Africa also has long since engaged in. Whether in the latter case the 'Commission for Truth and Reconciliation' or in the former the ongoing Treaty of Waitangi settlements throughout the length and breadth of Godzone/God's Own, repentance - to quote my blogpost title - is as repentance does...
...and involves a - substantial - measure of reconciliation and restitution...
...neither of which seem to have thus far occurred in the United States of America...
...and yet seem at long last - and not just from the political Left but from numerous standard-bearers of the evangelical 'Right' even - to be approaching full steam ahead...
