“The View” co-host Joy Behar is taking issue with former President Donald Trump claiming God was on his side.
During his speech accepting the Republican presidential nomination, Trump stated it was because of God he was able to stand on the stage after a gunman tried to kill him at a rally.
(snip)
“What about Corey… what’s his name? Uh… Comperatore. The fireman who also died [at the rally],” Behar continued. “Oh God was watching me and not them? There’s something very disturbing about that.”

WOW, so the joyless hag is upset.
Hey Joy pick up the RED phone, Satan’s calling!!!
It’s not unusual for a person who escaped a near death experience to credit God. Pagan communist Joy often explains how her gods of communism, weather and abortion effect her life.
It was short notice so satan couldn’t think of anything else for this moron to say.
In Romans 9 Paul clarifies that the true Israel is comprised of those who put their faith in God justifying them. The physical Israel is not necessarily the same as the spiritual Israel. Many in the physical Israel rejected God.
But it is true that God has never said that a physical people is His own except for the descendants of Abraham through Isaac. Yet even those were able to reject their place as God’s chosen people, and God has also grafted into the vine those who have become His through faith in Christ.
Ultimately God wants us to all be His through Christ. Both Jews and Gentiles. Both Jews and Gentiles can reject that.
I do believe that God has greatly blessed us in America and that if we who bear His name repent, humble ourselves, seek His face, and pray, He will forgive us and heal the land in which we live.
So NOTHING was going to satisfy these douche bags, regardless of what Trump said they will find something to trash him on..and what do you expect from soulless pricks who hate God
Trump did say that he was only going to be talking about this ONCE because its too painful to talk about..He has survivors guilt, its very common to happen..you can see it in his eyes, he looked like he was going to cry.
“If God is for us, who can be against us?” it says in Scripture. God is FOR us. He showed us that by offering His only Son, and if He would do that there is nothing He would withhold from us for our benefit. Trump was able to feel in a very real way that God is FOR him, at that moment. God IS on his side. God is on the side of anyone who is in Christ.
I second those amens.
I think you’re right.
It makes sense.

Joyless knows as much about God as a pig knows about catechism.
WOW, WOW, WOW!!! Asking if I’m a fool? It was supposed to be FUNNY. Forgive me for thinking you had a sense of humor. I take full responsibility for that mistake.
My synopsis on your reply should be satisfactory. But I simply don’t want to use the term “2nd chosen”. Likely I didn’t understand your use of the phrase.
AGREED: In Romans 9 Paul clarifies that the true Israel is comprised of those who put their faith in God justifying them. The physical Israel is not necessarily the same as the spiritual Israel. Many in the physical Israel rejected God.
Also AGREED: But it is true that God has never said that a physical people is His own except for the descendants of Abraham through Isaac. Yet even those were able to reject their place as God’s chosen people, and God has also grafted into the vine those who have become His through faith in Christ.
Still AGREE: Ultimately God wants us to all be His through Christ. Both Jews and Gentiles. Both Jews and Gentiles can reject that.
In the end...AGREE: I do believe that God has greatly blessed us in America and that if we who bear His name repent, humble ourselves, seek His face, and pray, He will forgive us and heal the land in which we live.
It seems we’re in agreement then. =)
It was somebody else who posted the “2nd chosen” comment.
I do think that the world understands that the USA was built on the Judeo-Christian worldview, and the freedoms and successes we’ve had are the fruit of that - at least in the past before the society fell apart. As with the nation of Israel, I think God shows the world His Law and Gospel by the way He deals with those who either obey Him or fall away. His redemption is a beautiful thing to behold, and I hope and pray that it will be seen clearly through all of us. Including Trump.
It is interesting to me that Richard Dawkins (if I’m remembering this correctly) is an atheist but he says he thinks that Christianity makes the world a better place. If it’s not too late (I don’t remember hearing that he’s died yet), I hope he considers why that is - that such fallen creatures as us would somehow have strength and love that is beyond what we as just normal human beings would otherwise have.
I am really, really enjoying Tucker Carlson. The newness of his faith is so infectious. I see so many reasons to believe that God is working in individual lives and that He can conduct all these little handbells (us) to make a beautiful symphony that brings joy, beauty, and love to everyone who sees or hears it - including His original people, the people of Israel.
Naw, I think that they will eventually eat each other like the cannibals they are.
You missed my point.
“In a certain way, I felt very safe, because I had God on my side. I really felt that,” Trump said.
I stand corrected. He may have said it in the course of being protected from a deadly weapon, but he said it.
He is missing fundamental understanding of certain things, unfortunately.
What would Joy Behar know about Christianity?
Here’s a hint Joy: killing your unborn children is Un-Christian.
