51 I dare you ...

As a practicing Christian, I know it is not any of my business what the reasons are a person goes to God with prayer. I saw the video where he was full of hubris saying that he didn't pray for forgiveness. The last person on this orb who didn't need forgiveness was crucified on a tree nearly 2000 years ago. His display of a lack of humility is troubling. You jumped the shark in judging me for commenting on Trump's public comments.

I don't know what his acts of charity are. He claims he has made many. I presume he has had many charitable donations. I happen to think that many wealthy people give freely to worthy causes in secret.

Matthew 6:1-4 1 Be careful not to practice your righteousness in front of others to be seen by them. If you do, you will have no reward from your Father in heaven. 2 So when you give to the needy, do not announce it with trumpets, as the hypocrites do in the synagogues and on the streets, to be honored by others. Truly I tell you, they have received their reward in full. 3 But when you give to the needy, do not let your left hand know what your right hand is doing, 4 so that your giving may be in secret. Then your Father, who sees what is done in secret, will reward you.

First of all, any time someone uses the word wealthy or rich to describe Trump, I know that it goes to the point that the person is jealous of his success. Secondly, I’m sure he does give to many charities, but those aren’t what I’m referring to. Just simple acts of kindness toward the average Joe that he has done over the years, which he never talks about, but others have.
