Jerusalem embassy to be opened by 'religious bigot,' Romney says (Pastor Jeffress)
MSN ^ | May 14, 2018 | F. Brinley Bruton and Vaughn Hillyard, NBC News

Former Republican presidential hopeful Mitt Romney lashed out at the decision to have a controversial evangelical leader give a blessing at the opening of the U.S. Embassy in Jerusalem Monday, calling him a "religious bigot."

The Senate candidate from Utah criticized the inclusion of the Rev. Robert Jeffress — the pastor of First Baptist Church in Dallas who is also an an adviser to President Donald Trump. The president recognized Jerusalem as Israel's capital last year.

"Robert Jeffress says, 'You can't be saved by being a Jew,' and 'Mormonism is a heresy from the pit of hell,'" Romney wrote in a tweet. "He's said the same about Islam. Such a religious bigot should not be giving the prayer that opens the United States Embassy in Jerusalem."

Romney is Mormon....

Attaboy Mittens

Garbage talk like that is one reason you LOST TO BARACK OBAMA

Think about that, Mitt . . you LOST TO A FRAUD

AND A BIGOT

But did you refer to Hussein as a “bigot”?

NO . you were far too cowardly to speak the truth

Typical FALSE MSN Headline:

“Jerusalem embassy to be opened by ‘religious bigot,’ Romney says (Pastor Jeffress)”

Jeffress does not “open” the Jerusalem embassy.

He is one of MANY speakers there.

Notice the juxtaposition of “Jerusalem embassy” opening and “bigot.”

Is Romney a religious bigot because he believes that non-Mormons won’t become gods in the same way that’s believes Mormons will?

Mormonism and Islam are a religious joke.

Joseph Smith invented his “religion” for the same reason Mohammed invented his: to get laid more and acquire wealth.

Don’t all Nazarenes believe anyone else is going to Hell?

And all Mormons believe all non-Mormons go to Hell?

And all Muslims believe all non-Muslims go to Hell?

Pretty much the only religion I know that believe that most people (excepting the most evil) has a place in the world-to-come is Judaism.

..................

With the exception of the two quotes on Israel, mostly longstanding Christian doctrine, though clearly at odds with the new Secular Progressive faith. I'm sure Mitt didn't like the comment on Mormanism, but lots of Jews don't like the belief they're on a train ride to hell if they don't abandon their faith. But it's a longstanding belief, and only an issue when it's expressed in a secular fashion. As in helping send them there. As is happening in Gaza today. Not an issue but a captivating headline

The Bible says this land belongs to the Jewish people — period God has pronounced judgment after judgment in the Old Testament to those who would 'divide the land,' end quote, and hand it over to non-Jews

The truth everyone headed to hell has rejected is that Jesus Christ is the only means by which a person may be saved Jesus could not have been more clear [when] he said, 'I am the way, the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father but through me

Is Islam just another way to worship God? Let me say this without any hesitation: Islam is a false religion that is based on a false book that was written by a false prophet

New Testament also prohibits homosexual marriage By upholding God's pattern for sexuality — a man and a woman in a marriage relationship — Jesus automatically condemned any deviation from that pattern

The rebirth of Israel as a nation was an unmistakable milestone on the prophetic timeline leading to the return of Christ
