I would like to know how long he says he’s been a Christian.

“So, Trump can question the faith of others but the Pope cannot question his? “

Uhh, apparently, yes. Trump’s mind operates in a world of it’s own. Not so sure that is a good prescription for what ails the country now, considering our current POTUS.

Judge anything you want. The value of your judgment or consequence thereof is not your call.

"No leader, especially a religious leader, should have the right to question another man's religion or faith."

And precisely how does Mr. Trump propose to enforce the removal of any person's right to question another person's faith?

Yes, I know, that's not how he meant it; it's just a way of saying yadda yadda yadda.

However, it is regularly claimed that the Pope should not say anything unless it is so carefully phrased that even the worst-intentioned reader could not take it to mean something different. Shouldn't a potential holder of the position of President of the United States be held to the same standard as the Pope, who has, after all, zero actual power outside his own household?

Trump didn’t question whether or not Ted Cruz is Christian, he wondered how Ted can go around touting his faith while at the same time lying through his teeth about so many things.

It’s a question I’ve asked myself, as well.

But I fully expect to be called a liberal and a heathen and not conservative and all kinds of other stuff today, so it’s all good.

Irony.

Like Democrats, if Donald Trump didn’t have double standards, he wouldn’t have any standards at all,

But no amount of prevarication or hypocrisy can shake the faith of his adoring disciples. He is gonna build that Great Wall and he is gonna Make America Great Again. Have Faith. He is annoited by God (i.e)Himself. He is America’s Last Hope. The Messiah. How dare anyone question his Faith. And how dare anyone question the faith of his Followers.

Faith comes by hearing and hearing by the word of Trump.

Can I get an Amen?

Observations on Donald Trump's genuine Christian faith.


Disclaimer-1 : I am a Ted Cruz Florida campaigner.

Disclaimer-2 : My wife and I just spent the previous 30 minutes discussing all of the great points that Donald Trump offers.


So here we go.


Donald Trump proclaims that he rarely asks God for forgiveness.

Following the logic expressed this week by a South Carolina pastor ...

"Anyone doesn't ever ask God for forgiveness is NOT a Christian"


Jesus Christ's final words on Calvary's cross included ...

Father forgive them for they know not what they do ...


It follows that "forgiveness" is a pretty big deal.

That's just my two cents ...



P.S. Today is the South Carolina Presidential Primary.

Whatever his great/puzzling positions and excessive twitter tweets at 2 am ...

I staunchly believe that Donald Trump's entrance into the 2016 GOP Presidential campaign ...

is frankly a "divine miracle from God Almighty".

And I say that as a very loyal Ted Cruz supporter.


Donald Trump is THE REASON why JEB! is expected to cancel his 2016 Presidential campaign TONIGHT.

Donald Trump is THE REASON why the GOPe has had its @ss politically kicked from here to eternity.



Whatever happens in South Carolina today ...

EVERY Evangelical Christian Conservative needs to thank God for Donald Trump (even if they vote for Ted Cruz) ...

Here’s why most people call themselves Christian. Well, let’s see, I’m mo a muslim, I’m not Jewish, I’m not Hindu, I’m not Buddhist, so I must be Christian.

On the one hand, the Bible tells us repeatedly that only God knows the heart and in that sense, only He knows who belongs to Him and who doesn’t. At the same time, the Bible repeatedly calls us to examine what a professing Christian believes and to evaluate how that person lives, to judge the tree by its fruit, as Jesus put it.


“Fruits” of Donald Trump:

While Donald Trump has come out now and said he is “prolife” believing in “only” exception abortion [which isn’t really prolife at all], he still, nonetheless, has never asked for forgiveness for his harsh partial-birth-abortion stance.

The following link is self-explanatory, and again, he’s asked no forgiveness.

I have no doubt the Crewz see a touch of genius in this article.

I see a touch of sickness in it.

This is just more exhibited hatred of Trump.

You’ve got to have a bit of a sick twisted mind to find comfort or solace by reading this diatribe.

Trump is supposedly evil for making a brief quip observation about Cruz, but here when a person sits down to do an extensive write up delving into the religious nature of Trump, why it’s an exercise in some majestic lofty intellectual mission from God Himself.

With each passing day the Crewz sink lower into a death spiral that no true Christian can recognize as ordained from the God I love.

The fact that Trump isn’t religious doesn’t bother me. That’s his choice. The fact that he fakes that he is and is trying to fool others does.

Well, obviously you can judge anything. Having said that, absolutely and you should judge everyone’s Christianity who clams to be one. WAY too often we give a free pass to people who say “I’m a Christian”. Pretty sure the Bible weighed in on that subject, i.e. sheep, wolves, false prophets, etc.

I would like to change the title to ............... “Can We Judge the Christianity of Barack Obama?” The media never seems to go there.

Judge/condemn, or Judge/discern?

We are not to do the first, that is the prerogative of God alone. For the second, we may or may not have sufficient information, and fair leeway and recognition of those limits should be made.

Can We Judge the Christianity of Donald Trump?

One of the most popular activities in American Evangelicalism.

Judge by who’s standards, the Dominionist Ted and his side kick whacko Beck?

The pope is left of Bernie Sanders and the cult of Ted and his whacko dad and Beck are too scary to contemplate having access to the nuclear briefcase.

Trump has not made this an issue, he’s not flaunting his religious propensity like Cruz. It’s the Pope that brought it up after some very biased prepping.

But this fact won’t stop the perpetually judgmental holier-than-thou types.
