The guy that is president of the Southern Baptist Seminary (as well as being a Baptist minister), has been outspoken against Trump and has appeared on multiple TV programs with the same message. It seems that the words and actions of Trump do not align with the words of Jesus. And from my Southern Baptist upbringing, I agree with that assessment.
