Those are Cannon or Church Law, as well as what is preached from the pulpit.

None of the GOP in Congress or the White House can be said to act in accordance with the teachings of Jesus Christ. They use religion to manipulate their base & to scare them into voting GOP. Are they Christian? Sure. There are tens of thousands of different Christian sects, often with differing or even mutually opposed beliefs. Do their actions match the words of Jesus or actively oppose the same, while they give lip service?

Christian is as Christian does, as they say.
