Jesse Jackson: Jesus Would Not Let Trump Into Heaven

The Rev. Jesse Jackson told fellow clergy this week that President Donald Trump “would not qualify to get into Jesus’ kingdom.”

Jackson spoke Monday at the National Action Network’s “Ministers March for Justice.” During his speech, he equated the Electoral College with vestiges of racism and demanded an end to the system.

In his speech to the ministers, Jackson, who also attacked Trump’s comments following last month’s violence in Charlottesville, Virginia, castigated Trump’s immigration policy.

“Trump says you must be able to speak the language English, qualified and have a job skill. Jesus would not qualify to come in Trump’s country. He would not qualify to get into Jesus’ kingdom,” Jackson said.

Jackson then referenced the New Testament book of Matthew.

“I was hungry you fed me, naked you clothed me, captive and you set me free,” Jackson said.

Many on Twitter were inflamed by Jackson’s remarks.

Jackson also spoke about the fight against Confederate statues and racism.

“We stand against the relics of a war long since the Klan ended. The Confederate flag represents some evil, represents secession and slavery and sedition and segregation. The Confederate flag must come down. The statues must come down. Electoral College must come down. We want a one person, one vote democracy,” he said.

Don’t you just love self annointed, self righteous liberals?

[stevio]

All I can say is “WOW!”. Judgment is The Lord’s, but that takes some chutzpah.

[wardamneagle]

Because Jesse sees Jesus as black.

[CodeToad]

Black racist extortionists only go to Hell.

[Popman]

I wonder if Jesse Jackson even knows Jesus...

Let alone he knows the Lords mind?

[wardamneagle]

Because Jesse sees Jesus as black.

[Lexington Green]

Jesse speaks for God?

[Kickass Conservative]

I bet he thinks Jesus would spit in the Food he was serving White People, just like Jesse did.

[TLI]

`Ol marble mouth must be needing some donations (cash please) after consulting with Jesus.

The cab fare to Heaven is steep these days...

Interesting FReeper name you have there!
I agree! These ignorant “revrunds” probably believe entry through the Pearly Gates requires good deeds and their moral standards.
We know of several murderers that are currently residing in Heaven.

By Jackson’s standards, Gandhi would be in Heaven.

Shows how much the Reverand knows about the Bible. Guess he forgot what Jesus promised but then again, I doubt he’s ever cracked open the Good Book,

[AppyPappy]

When Jesse got busted for knocking up his Chief of Staff, he response was “Judge not lest ye be judged”
I guess he is back to judging.

[Vaquero]

Presumptuous POS ain’t he.

[nevermorelenore]

Judge not ...
This is Exactly what that verse is about, “Rev” Jackson !

[SkyDancer]

So like now JJ is the final word on who gets in or not?

[jonrick46]

Jessie Jackson will say anything that suits his cause:

[BigEdLB]

How does Jesse know? His relationship with Jesus is rather tenuous based on his behavior

[Tucker39]

Jesse obviously knows NOTHING about God’s Plan of Salvation if he thinks ANYONE gets into Heaven because they’re GOOD ENOUGH.

[sargon]

Only God is the Judge of who gets into Heaven, Jesse.

For any man to put himself in place of God's judgement of another is the antithesis of Christianity...

So sayeth the "reverend' dumbass Jackson. Puhleez! The race-baiting, adulterous hater, who has caused rioting and division in his own congregation (loosely defined as black 'victims' of white privilege) for a generation! He has the audacity to suggest that He would not qualify to get into Jesus’ kingdom,” Jackson said. Yo, Jesse, you will one day be barred by Saint Peter at the Golden Gate (it IS a gated community!) You will not be admitted, NOT because you are a colored person - rather, because of the 'content of your character' (or lack thereof.)
