"...[Pastor Mark Burns] repeated four times: "Donald Trump is pro-faith. He is pro-faith. He is pro-faith. He is pro-faith."
But an attendee called out loudly that Trump is "profane" - presumably referring to Trump's use of the word "pussy" on stage to mock opponent Sen. Ted Cruz and other such statements over the course of the campaign.
Burns responded by admitting that Trump's language is profane.
"Let me tell you one thing, I'm grateful you said that, that Donald Trump is profane, and that's what you're saying," he said. "Donald Trump is profane, but guess what? ... I don't know about you but I don't trust a man that doesn't have mistakes. I don't trust a man that doesn't have the ability to have mistakes and then recognize those mistakes and then do what it takes to change."
Burns tied the argument into the Christian gospel, that no one can earn salvation through works alone...."

See this is another point where we differ. I am not impressed by Trump's money.
Trump is quite clear about what he believes - depending on what he's selling, he freely picks the necessary side of the issue to benefit himself.
In his 1987 book Art of the Deal, Donald Trump put it bluntly:
"I play to people's fantasies. ... I call it truthful hyperbole. It's an innocent form of exaggeration - and a very effective form of promotion."
So ...you are the arbiter of what and who is pleasing to God?
Great news for you: you’re way out in front (once again) for idiot of the month honors! It would be your 3rd or 4th consecutive month! (Good Lord, are you dumb)
I’m talking about providing links to your public pronouncements about me.
I was going to ask if a Mormon (not heretical to Mormonism) cuts much contrary to a Dominionist - then I realized you were probably stating that both Mormonisism and Dominionism are heretical to the Bible.
Golly gee - obama had only been in office a little over 4 months when Trump gave this interview. You people are nuts and grasp at straws. No one could have dreamed the disaster and how evil this president has been.
this isn’t about prosperity gospel preachers, is it? NO. Mormons are a cult - do your research.
Don’t feed the spammers my FRiend. ;)
Fail.
Pretty funny, A press organ in Iowa is making excuses for the voters’ decision. I wager they were in full dudgeon when Reagan won the general election.
We can read your stupid threads, where nothing is too foul or absurd to harp on over and over and over again.
Does a Mormon, which Beck is, open up the Bible? If he has, he would know that it is his calling to lead Trump to Jesus. Saying that Trump’s hold on the Bible is “bullcrap” is just an assumption on what should be his private relationship with Jesus. It is also a poor reflection on himself to indulge in judgmentalism, which should be rejected by all Christians. It is definitely not going to lead Trump to Jesus. Questioning Trump’s relationship to Jesus is not Beck’s business. When Trump comes before the Judgement Seat, it will be God’s business. “All have sinned” and it is not Beck’s place to judge. It is a matter between Trump and Jesus. Encouragement to strengthen that relationship would be the biblical course Beck should take. Otherwise, it is using religion to get a political advantage. To those on the outside, that looks pretty pathetic.
KMA&D
Did Reagan win Iowa?
Where have I been foul?
Maybe he doesn’t consider some 4 letter words as cursing. Maybe he considers using the words GD and JC as cursing. There you go - judging someone without knowing the truth.
If he is still collecting his Senate salary while running for president, the people are being ripped off.
