Donald Trump, speaking to a religious crowd at Virginia's Liberty University on Monday, turned to scripture.
"We're going to protect Christianity. I can say that. I don't have to be politically correct," he said. "Two Corinthians, 3:17, that's the whole ballgame ... is that the one you like?"

Ain’t that the truth.
Ha!!!
I don’t like snobs, including about the only correct way to cite Scripture.
Well, gee, thanks.
I’ve not been called Perfect in a long time.
Back when I was working, I was referred to, sometimes in my presence, as Miss Perfect.
But it’s been a while.
An interesting four years would be Ted Cruz as President and release The Donald as Veep to bluster out around the world for the US of A.
Also, do we not forget that Nancy Reagan dabbled in the Occult?
“We’re going to protect Christianity. “
So wait, let me get this straight.
The PURE Christians casting stones here, the holier-than-thou types, the pious ones, the PERFECTs...
skip over Trump’s intention of PROTECTING Christianity because they in their elitist holiness have determined he referenced the Bible in a way the do not approve of...?
Do I have that right? I’m too busy gagging on the arrogance of those who think they are so faultless....
Queens-speak goes way beyond accent. Remember the use of the word "schlonged."
That said, I don't think Trump is the type of guy who goes to bed reading the Bible.
EFFYOou!
And I’m a Christian. I can’t quote scripture perfectly and btw,,Christ never REQUIRED that...but I still get the basic idea.
You must think you are so perfect as to fault others for falling short. Maybe you should let God know you are also a judge of men.
Seems to be the best in my book. God and Liberty are the whole ballgame. What better way of expressing that belief than 2 Cor 3:17? It was exactly what the entire Constitution is based on and the writings and words of the Founding Fathers confirm exactly that.
My bible was published in 1945. Older version? Possibly be the difference between using Roman numerals v. Arabic numeration. ;)
It’s the mistake you’d make if you never heard it before. (The Sioux mistake)
YOu suck seriously. You think God/Christ want you to refer to scripture only ONE way? And if it’s not the PURE way, it’s to be insulted?
Who the hell are you?!
Are you serious?
Oh No! I’ll definitely have to switch my vote away from Mr. Trump Now!
I suppose it’s not too late to vote for Mr. Walker.
I guess I’ll just have to stay home and not vote now. Pity.
LOL ... well said!
If you’re reading it off a teleprompter someone else prepared for you, you may. Like Obama did with “corpsman”.
No, more like “I don’t pretend I”m so effing perfect that I can tell other people how to be MORE Christian”
IN other words, like you.
Wait,,did you announce it to the media? That’s really the only think Trump has not done.
Oh,,but yes, you are so much a better Christian than the rest of us sinners,,aren’t you? Holding yourself up as an example...
