Trump Courts Christians at NRB Convention, Promises to Defend Faith and Religious Liberty

NASHVILLE – Former President Trump says he will defend Christianity and religious liberty if he wins the White House in November. On Thursday, he addressed the National Religious Broadcasters convention where his words were met with enthusiasm.

This year marks the 80th anniversary for NRB, which Trump noted in his speech.

"This great organization has helped spread the word of God, the love of Christ, the stories of the holy Bible, and the voices of famed evangelical people and evangelists like the late, great Pat Robertson, who was a great gentleman. I got to know him very well. Great evangelist. And, of course, the legendary Billy Graham. How good was Billy Graham, right?" said Trump.

Should be clear to anyone with an ounce of common sense that this guy has never read a single bible verse.

Religion and Politics both carry a deep "Us against Them" mentality.

Hey all, I promise this is not what Jesus is like at all. Don't let these goons (who aren't even truly Christians) make you think God is something He isn't.

No man can serve two masters: for either he shall hate the one, and love the other, or else he shall lean to the one, and despise the other. You cannot serve God and riches. ~Jesus Christ

They had to very selectively edit this. Ha ha ha

Well, for Trump, lying's just like breathing. It comes naturally.

Here is what confuses me. It’s starts at the very beginning. It starts with our very first lesson of Jesus. Next to the cross…the most symbolic. We set them up every Christmas. Jesus was born in a manger. Why? Because there was no room at the Inn. Because Joseph and Mary were poor. This sets the corner stone of our faith. Jesus will be the King of Kings because he was born in a manger not the Inn. But now we have Donald Trump….he is know for the opposite of the manger. Not only an Inn but super luxurious gold laden hotel rooms. Right? He is the anti-manger. So why would God send Jesus to be born in a manger and then the next person is literally….not just symbolically….but literally a luxury golden hotel? Why did God do a 180? Shall the rich inherit the Earth? Was the manger the wrong symbol?

I still have to get mine done. I will fit it in some where.

In no instance have Churches been the guardians of the liberties of the people--James Madison
God gave us free will, what right do we have not to extend it to others?

*Remember when the GOP had ethics, integrity, honor and respected the Rule of Law and our Constitution?*

Me neither.
