I've never heard any believer refer to a second book of the Bible as "two". I've also never heard a believer refer to a verse as the whole ballgame.

I'll have to watch the video and see the context before making a conclusion.

Seriously? I've used the exact same reference "two Corinithians" many many times.

I guess that makes me a non-believer.....

This is big! Maybe Yuuge! Trump made his first mistake! He said ‘2’ instaed of ‘Second.’ Oh the horror!

Yeah, the “Two Corinthians” thing was funny.

Our President doesn’t need to be a Biblical scholar. He needs to be our President.

Go Trump!

I had been hoping I could stick with Trump all the way, but this convinces me he’s the devil incarnate.

How anyone could do this, it just shakes my faith in him.

I’ve never seen anything like it.

It truly causes me to rethink my connection to the Divine.

Does Trump have any idea how many souls will be lead astray by this?

Is there no depths so low, this man won’t sink to them just to enslave this nation to Satan?

Politico and the Bible in the same sentence is well insane. :-)

Pitiful. Obviously, there are no biblically literate Christians on his staff to tell him that John 3:16, is referred to as “the Gospel in a nutshell,” but no passage is “the whole ballgame.”

If it was quoted correctly he would’ve gotten lambasted as the religious right.

Before this is over I would not be surprised if Sanders or Clinton quote the Koran, but then the press would like that.

2 Corinthians 3:17 (NIV)

Now the Lord is the Spirit, and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is freedom.

If I thought Trump believed this, he'd be a much stronger second choice behind Ted Cruz. I'm certain Cruz believes this.

As for Obama, he'd be more likely to think: "Now Allah is the Spirit, and where the Spirit of Satan is, there is submission". Having been raised in a Muslim environment, and as a believer is government's absolute power, our communist leader prefers submission over freedom.

My husband DOES refer to the second/third books as SECOND and THIRD. I do not, but he does.

Money quote: "The Art of the Deal is second to the Bible," Trump said magnanimously. As for other books, "The Bible blows them away. There’s nothing like it, the Bible."

Let's all breathe easier. Trump says there is nothing like the Bible. That is, until there is.

This reminds me of the time Homer Simpson quoted scripture to Rev. Lovejoy.

Where do I find the verse which states, “We’re going to win so much, you’re going to beg me to stop. Please Mr. President, can’t we lose just once? And I’m not going to do it!”

LOL!

This poo flinging is pretty hilarious, and sad. I like how the die-hard anti-Trump faction claims ‘nae true conservative’ in nearly every post, and then jumps all over this leftist nothing of a story from Politico saying Trump “bungled” a reference when he clearly didn’t. I think anti-[Insert Candidate Here] delirium in the Trump/Cruz camps is really starting to take it’s toll on everyone. I think it’s time for me to tune out until my Florida primary so that I don’t get caught up in the madness. The only guy I was ever really against was the fraud Carson, and he’s tanked, so I’m happy. As long as Trump or Cruz wins, we’ll be in good shape to go up against Hillary, and I won’t feel the wretched pain of self-disappointment pulling the lever for a Republican President like I have the past few elections.

Best wishes to all!

But he can recite the muzzy morning prayers without an American accent and knows the secret handshake of pointing his finger. Praise Allah! Look at the deals he’s giving his ISIL brothers. That’s all that matters.

Every single person on this thread who feels a needs to denigrate someone who says "two" instead of "second" reminds me of the sanctimonious, holier-than-thou "Christians" who may just find themselves on the outside of the Pearly Gates when we're all called home. You make me sick.

You are the "Christians" who snicker to yourselves when a stranger comes to your church service dressed in less-than-desirable attire because that's all they have in their closet. Then you remember that snickering at other people is not the "Christian" thing to do, so you rush over and shake the stranger's hand and greet him to show all your fellow brethren how holy you are. Then when you walk off you wrinkle your nose and snicker again because the stranger doesn't own deodorant.

Do a soul check, folks. Maybe you should be praying for other people instead of making fun of their lack of knowledge (in your mind) of how to "properly" pronounce Bible verses. Really?!

Holy Canarsie, I can hardly belive what people are saying here. What difference does it make if he says 2 Corinthians or Second Corinthians? The original greek text was neither they just took two letters Rabbi Shaul or Tarsus ( who we call Paul of Tarsus) and stuck numbers on them. The original Greek had no numbers, no punctuation it was one continuious run on letter.
The fact is Donald said LIBERTY was what the Bible was about. Liberty was the name of the University. And LIBERTY, especially religious liberty is what’s at stake in this election.
Donald is not going away. So get used to it you Trump haters.

I can always count on Politico to tell me the news without a slant.
