“We are commanded to love,” she said. “Indeed, Jesus made it his greatest commandment. When I used to teach the occasional Sunday School class, I often taught on that lesson. That’s a hard commandment to obey. Some days it’s really hard for me.”
After delivering a litany of praise for pastors around the country and promising multiple government programs to improve the lives of Americans nationwide, Clinton began talking about her own faith.
She admitted that it “doesn’t always come naturally to a Midwestern Methodist” but said that she had a “deep and abiding Christian faith” as a result of her childhood.
“I still remember my late father – a gruff former Navy man – on his knees praying by his bed every night,” she said. “That made a big impression on me as a young girl, seeing him humble himself before God.”
She explained that she “embraced an activist social justice faith” citing St. Francis of Assisi’s advice to “Try to preach the gospel always, and if necessary use words.”
She also repeatedly cited Scripture, to emphasize the importance of doing good works for other people.
“The scripture tells us that faith without works is dead. The Epistle of James tells us we cannot just be hearers of the Word, we must be doers,” she said. “And I believe that with all my heart.”
She also reminded everyone in the congregation that nobody was perfect, even in politics.
“I have learned to be grateful not just for my blessings but also for my faults – and there are plenty!” she said. “I’ve made my share of mistakes. I don’t know anyone who hasn’t. Everyone here today has stumbled on their own stony paths. It’s grace that lifts us up, and grace that leads us home.”
Clinton has opened up about her faith before, particularly at a January town hall in Iowa as she was battling Sen. Bernie Sanders in the Democratic presidential primary.
After calling herself a Christian and citing Scripture, Clinton criticized religious conservatives for judging others.
She don’t feel no ways tard?
What soul?
Her speech writers didn’t read up on what Jesus said the most important commandment was....Hillary’s version is actually #2...
Matthew 22:37-40New International Version (NIV)
37 Jesus replied: “‘Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind.’[a] 38 This is the first and greatest commandment. 39 And the second is like it: ‘Love your neighbor as yourself.’[b] 40 All the Law and the Prophets hang on these two commandments.”
Blasphemy
For some reason I cannot get the image in my mind of Clinton teaching Sunday school.....
“Hillary Clinton Bares Her Soul And Vacancy Sign Was Observed”
Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton “staged” a personal speech about her faith, baring her “soul” to the congregation and talking personally about her commitment to her faith in Alinsky.
That murderous, treasonous ass bared her soul when she sat with her husband and the Gores while Mother Teresa denounced abortion. Everyone stood up and applauded. HRC can rot in hell.
Total Liar.
Everybody except Trump's deplorables.
Barren soul
HRC said that?!? ROFLMBO
In order for her to bare her soul she first needs to borrow it back from the demon to whom she sold it to.
Where’s the barf alert?
What soul?
ANTONIO
Mark you this, Bassanio,
The devil can cite Scripture for his purpose.
An evil soul producing holy witness
Is like a villain with a smiling cheek,
A goodly apple rotten at the heart:
O, what a goodly outside falsehood hath!
