‘It’s the Living Word’: Hillary Clinton Randomly Approached a Pastor Who Was Silently Reading

And, according to one South Carolina pastor, she also possesses an “impressive” handle on the scriptures.

The Rev. Frederick Donnie Hunt, pastor of First Calvary Baptist Church, met Clinton at the Main Street Bakery in Columbia, South Carolina, on Wednesday, when she came in with campaign staff and reporters to purchase some baked goods, CNN reported.

Hunt, who was quietly studying his Bible at the time, said that the presidential candidate approached him and asked what he was reading. When he told her that he was studying Corinthians 13, Clinton responded, ”Oh I know it well,” and commended him for exploring scripture.

“You’re doing what is the most important thing to do, it’s continuing to study and learn what the scripture says and what it means,” Clinton said. “I have a preacher friend who sends me scripture and devotionals, sometimes mini-sermons every day.”

Clinton went on to call the Bible “alive.”

“It’s the living word,” she told Hunt, who later said that he was “impressed” by the former first lady’s biblical knowledge.

The pastor, who said that he believes it is essential for a presidential candidate to know the Bible well, now supports Clinton after previously choosing President Barack Obama over her as his candidate of choice in 2008, CNN reported.

“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!”

Satan can read too.

The pastor... now supports Clinton after previously choosing President Barack Obama over her as his candidate of choice in 2008, CNN reported.

In other words... a dumbass.

Does anybody really believe that this was some random chance encounter with a potential voter? Or do your u believe the whole thing was staged? How many of you believe that Hillary has great knowledge of scripture????

So her friend sends her Bible passages almost daily? That explains the thousands of emails she deleted.

Color me suspicious. The Clintons don’t do anything unscripted. And this guy is a Democrat.

Hillary thinks the Bible is the “living word” in the same way that she thinks that the constitution is a “living document” which can be reinterpreted without bothering with amendments. So two faggots adopting children is great Biblically as long as you use the new interpretation of the “living” and evolving document.

It would be difficult to imagine a more staged scenario than this.

With the Clintons we all whenever they are involved; it is a set-up =)

Like Bubba casually walking on the beach and poof there were some rocks placed in a shape of a cross - yeah.

I thought the same thing. She probably couldn’t even open the Bible to Corinthians.

How convenient for Hill. She won’t take questions from the media but puts her best face on (poor choice of words) through a Pastor. Snake oil saleslady?

Exactly. He stated what she wanted him to state. He wanted to be manipulated. She wanted to manipulate him.
