Hillary Clinton weighed in Monday morning on the ongoing controversy regarding the Trump administration’s "no-tolerance” border policy, suggesting that Jesus would not condone the actions of the American border authorities.
At an awards lunch for the Women’s Forum of New York, the 2016 Democratic presidential nominee called out “those who selectively use the Bible” to give grounds for the separations, which were reported by the Department of Justice on Friday.
“I went to a lot of years of Sunday school — even taught it from time to time. I’ve studied both the Old and New Testament, and what is being done using the name of religion is contrary to everything I was ever taught," Clinton said. "Jesus said, ‘Suffer the little children unto me.’ He did not say, ‘Let the children suffer.’”
Clinton’s comments appear to be in response to Attorney General Jeff Sessions’ invoking scripture last Thursday in response to criticisms from various Christian groups, as well as well-known evangelical leader Rev. Franklin Graham.
“Persons who violate the law of our nation are subject to prosecution,” Sessions said. “I would cite you to the Apostle Paul and his clear and wise command in Romans 13 to obey the laws of the government because God has ordained the government for his purposes.”
White House press secretary Sarah Sanders backed up Sessions’ remarks during a later press briefing, in which she told CNN’s Jim Acosta that it is “very biblical to enforce the law.”

Survival of the fittest.
I LIKE IT!
“”Where is their outrage when babies sufer being ripper out of the womb?””
When is someone going to ask her about that? I guess whenever she puts herself in the position where it can be asked but she’ll avoid that place.. Remember - ABORTION - IT’S FOR THE CHILDREN!
Does anyone remember years ago when she was asked what her favorite Bible verse was and she said, “The Golden Rule”? That was hardly NAMING chapter and verse, Hillary but then no one wanted to hold your feet to the fire - not then NOR SINCE!
She’s studied the Bible - BOY! How about that 9th Commandment, Hillary? I don’t think you’re supposed to BEAR FALSE WITNESS about ANYTHING but I guess she thinks it doesn’t pertain to her. Has she EVER told the truth about ANYTHING?
“”MY LORD, THIS WOMAN HAS NO SHAME!!!!””
Why can’t someone tie her to a bed and lock the door? Slide a tray of food under the door occasionally but whatever you do - DO NOT LET HER OUT! AND no PHONES!
How would she have any clue what Jesus said about the children... talk about clueless.
She wants to snag a few kids to feed the Podesta pizza gang.
Dollars to donuts that's another lie.
Her teaching Sunday school! I laughed when I heard her say that. It’s about as true as her dodging bullets.
The Devil loved to use scripture to try to entrap Jesus.
Get ye behind me Hillary!
Lucifer tried that crap on Jesus.
I doubt that the Whore of Babylon knows what Jesus said.
Thank you for that reminder!
This chronic liar, smelly, criminal hag should be in prison. Who cares what this loser and has-been has to say about anything? I’d love to hear her speak her “last words”though...
LOL!
don’t forget the exorcism
Jesus just left Chicago.
Jesus never said that. Here is what he actually said.
Luke 18:16 (KJV) But Jesus called them unto him, and said, Suffer little children to come unto me, and forbid them not: for of such is the kingdom of God. (Like 18:16 KJV)
In 17th century English this usage of “suffer” means “”permit” or “allow”. It has nothing to do with abusive or violent behavior.
On the other hand in many forms of abortion, which Hillary champions, unborn children are subjected to horrid, torturous treatment as they are chemically burned or dismembered alive. Truly monsterous.
I don’t take scripture lessons from her sort....
