Report: Hillary Clinton Considering Becoming a Methodist Preacher
Brietbart ^ | 8-8-17 | Adam Shaw8

Having failed to win the White House in November and with a new book on the way, Hillary Clinton is reportedly looking at turning to a more publicly religious role. Her pastor is saying she wants to get into preaching.

According to The Atlantic, Clinton told her longtime pastor Bill Shillady, at a recent photo shoot for his new book, that she wants to preach — something that the outlet says has always been a dream for her.

This comes on the back of a report that Clinton told an editor in 1994 that she thought “all the time” about becoming a minister. Per the Atlantic:

Last fall, the former Newsweek editor Kenneth Woodward revealed that Clinton told him in 1994 that she thought “all the time” about becoming an ordained Methodist minister. She asked him not to write about it, though: “It will make me seem much too pious.” The incident perfectly captures Clinton’s long campaign to modulate—and sometimes obscure—expressions of her faith.

The revelation comes ahead of two Clinton-related books coming out in 2017. Clinton herself has written What Happened — a 500+ page campaign post-mortem about how she lost in November. But Shillady himself has a new book of devotions: “Strong for a Moment Like This: The Daily Devotions of Hillary Rodham Clinton” which has a forward by Clinton herself.

I hadn't noticed this new trend. Looked into it, and they are putting these upside down crosses on panties, bras, stockings, shirts, skateboards, and more. https://desiringeden.wordpress.com/2013/02/08/upside-down-cross-trend-what-you-should-know/. Anyone claiming that the symbol as used is referring back to St. Peter is gas-lighting. That Chelsea Clinton is prominently wearing it is disgusting.

Implicit in Hillary's lifelong lust for power--perhaps her prime motive--has been her obvious craving to impose herself and her beliefs on everyone. She's been preaching her "gospel" for decades, so institutionalizing it this way, if not politically, is the natural endgame.

She won't actually do it, of course, because it would entail becoming at least ostensibly subordinate to a bishop-type and/or a congregation--but a girl can dream, can't she?

Yes they have
Just consecrated UMC Bishop Olivetti is not only a lesbian, but she is in a legal, lesbian marriage and has performed 50+ homosexual weddings.

The denomination study group preparing for a special general conference in 2019 is leaning toward a planned split of the denomination into 2 or 3 new, separate denominations.

Gee, I thought people were supposed to find Jesus in prison.

But the she is a witch so becoming a Methodist preach is more acceptable than leading a coven.

This is insane — the left is taking down another Christian Church.

It is a split church with half believing in scriptural Christianity and the other half believing in Jezebel who deceived the people with her adulteries.
