Just so you know:

When I said “you must be kidding”, I meant the Evangelicals, amd not you personally.

I would hope that these evangelical leaders come to the realization that we don't necessarily need a President that thumps the Bible and inserts scripture into daily press releases.

What we DO need is a POTUS that is respectful toward all religions...we can do the evangelizing.

"...to Test his Faith" is rather a deceptive headline, as I don't see that verbage in the text of the article. This is their goal:

"Our goal is to be able to have a conversation that could lead to a better understanding of what Donald Trump has to offer to the country," said Family Research Council President Tony Perkins, according to Fox News, which says Trump has agreed to meet with the evangelical and social conservative leaders.

“Test His Faith” ?

Faith is a personal trait. How on Earth can it be tested? Do the testers just dictate “You either believe as we do or you fail”?

The only person that can test their own faith is themselves.

Well said.

I think this meeting has a lot more to do with 500 religious leaders than it does about Donald Trump. I guess if it helps unify the party then it is good enough.

Trump has already won over the majority of evangelicals, so this event will serve as more of a rally than a conversion.

There will be some idiot who tries to grandstand against Trump, of course, and he’ll end up getting all the media attention. Said idiot should realize that he will be rejected by the LORD for grandstanding against His servant.

Trump wants the churches to have the strength of lobbyists, as Prez Johnson took away their teeth in the 1960’s. Trump wants to restore their teeth so that Christian values can be fought by evangelical leaders themselves and taken out of the hands of the politicians. Maybe some of their zeal to test Trump should be re-directed to themselves and what they could have been doing all these decades as they simply watched our country lose its Godly values.

Look at that thick OT III file they were keeping on him... and that’s just ONE of the many auditing files they have stored away with all his secrets.

Are we Electing a Pope or a President?

The difference is the Smoke. When Electing a President, especially a DemoncRat, they blow the Smoke up your A$$.

Truly, they have no choice. The contrast between liberty and tyranny is too obvious for words.

It almost makes their side of the meeting comical.

The religion industry now loves carrots.

What TRUMP is doing is raising their status among their various flocks and they are enjoying the self importance the moment offers.

TRUMP may be a secular man, but he is not a ghoul and is the only choice, if they wish to survive at all in the USA constitutionally, freely, judicially, federally, and institutionally.

It is almost comical if not tragic, that the religion industry has behaved as they have toward TRUMP, who is an answer to there every prayer but one, and Hillary who is prayed against fervently and in every way.

If they were praying all this time for a pastor to prez, then TRUMP

OOPS.. My sleeve interfered.

Just who are these “leaders” to judge anyone else’s faith? I don’t care about Trump’s faith! I care about how he would govern this country. Let them get back to bringing Christ to their flocks.

To test his faith? He’s already stated that he is not a Christian.

Well, the majority of the southern evangelicals did NOT accept that Cruz after Iowa was the ‘face of God’... Lesson is do NOT mess with God... nobody cons God.
