Pastor Robert Jeffries on Trump (L)

Just one man's opinion.

One man's biased opinion, since the article states he's been a Trump supporter from the beginning.

Doesn't matter what Jeffress' biased opinion is. My vote is my business. If you and Jeffress want to compromise your Christian principles and vote for a man who cares little of the Bible or God, so be it.

There is little difference between Trump and HRC. He is an ungodly man who has declared he doesn't need to ask forgiveness from God.

The fools are the Christians who believe Trump would protect religious liberties.

Remember, Trump was against Kim Davis and didn't defend her religious liberties then.

I'm very surprised by Jeffers on this. I tend to agree with Max Lucado:


It would be none of my business, I would have absolutely no right to speak up except that he repeatedly brandishes the Bible and calls himself a Christian," the San Antonio pastor said in an interview with Christianity Today magazine.

"If he's going to call himself a Christian one day and call someone a bimbo the next or make fun of somebody's menstrual cycle, it's just beyond reason to me."

There was a time in Iowa when he said 'I'm a Christian,' and somebody asked about forgiveness and he said 'I've never asked God for forgiveness.' I can't imagine that. I'm just shaking my head going 'How does that work?'" Lucado said.

"Does a swimmer say 'I've never gotten wet?' Does a musician say 'I've never sung a song?' How does a person claim to be a Christian and never need to ask for forgiveness?"

Simple answer: he's not a Christian. He's a fake. A fraud. A liar. You cannot be a Christian and not ask forgiveness of sins.

Re: Pastor Robert Jeffries on Trump (L)

Even by non-apostolic, Evangelical standards, do you really believe Romney, McCain, Dole, and the Bushes are Christians? Trump is more honest than all of them combined and, as Jefferies stated in the article, will be a true friend to Christians.

Oh really? Remind me what Trump, the friend of Christians, said about Kim Davis...

Right, that she needed to compromise her Biblical beliefs and give homos marriage licenses.

With friends like him, who needs liberal activists.

He's like the "friends" who put the prophets in the cave to "save them" from Jezebel. Hard to be a prophet of God when you're shut up in a cave.

And the line about being honest is just hilarious! Hahahaha. The dude has been caught in several lies already. Every time he speaks, he lies.

Re: Pastor Robert Jeffries on Trump (L)

So Christians should vote for trump why? Is it because the 11th commandment is thou shalt vote GOP?

No Christians should vote for pro-gay, pro-abortion, pro-socialism candidates.

Really?

For even when we were with you, this we commanded you, that if any would not work, neither should he eat.

Pure religion and undefiled before God and the Father is this, To visit the fatherless and widows in their affliction, and to keep himself unspotted from the world.

But if any provide not for his own, and specially for those of his own house, he hath denied the faith, and is worse than an infidel.

And in those days, when the number of the disciples was multiplied, there arose a murmuring of the Grecians against the Hebrews, because their widows were neglected in the daily ministration.
Then the twelve called the multitude of the disciples unto them, and said, It is not reason that we should leave the word of God, and serve tables.
Wherefore, brethren, look ye out among you seven men of honest report, full of the Holy Ghost and wisdom, whom we may appoint over this business.
