I went looking for old articles on her her faith and found CNN working to rewrite something she said. CNN said that Clinton knew well that both Catholics and Methodists believe faith is by grace alone yet she made an error in a speech indicating that good works are half of the equation to getting to heaven. How would CNN know if Clinton knew this well? So her network mouthpiece went on to say that it was either the fault of a speech writer or it was her natural idea that there are no freeloaders in heaven and frames it as though it is simply an outgrowth of her work ethic as a public servant. Anytime the network purports to “read the minds” of conservative Christians it always finds vice and narcissism, but Clinton’s network can only see public service in her mind when it reads her.

Before we get in too deep, I’ll remind my Christian brethren and sisters of Matthew 7:1


And before we get too spiritual, I ask the realists among us: what are the odds that Hillary Clinton is now a true Christian who has reverence for God above her own selfish ambitions?

It could be the whole point of this odd turn.

The linked article says her new book is due to be released Sept. 12 and is available for pre-order $22. The title of the book is “What Happened”. Yes the whole thing reads like she’s running, the photographs labor to portray her as healthy/spry, and video clips portray her as walking down stairs unassisted (isn’t that strange for a clip?) and “book sales” are a way to gather campaign funds and create the illusion of support.

Shouldn’t she be slouching toward Bethlehem or something?

This article is just Maxine Waters level stupid. She actually has always wanted to be a hitman.

Truly, the good Lord works in strange ways.
Perhaps this is His way of providing us all some relief...from her awful screechy voice on every second newscast. If she goes religious, only her parishioners will have to listen to her. (And MAYBE, pray pray pray, MAYBE its her first step to taking a Vow of Silence!??????) Praise the Lord!

Oh and her book, due to be released Sept. 12, is already a best-seller according to Amazon’s book page. Right now as if this posting, it’s #3 in sales. The book is said to be 512 pages in length and it even claims to explain “Russian interference.”
“She lays out how the 2016 election was marked by an unprecedented assault on our democracy by a foreign adversary. “

Actually the stats are slightly different when you look at them:
Amazon Best Sellers Rank: #1,012 Paid in Kindle Store (See Top 100 Paid in Kindle Store)
#1 in Kindle Store > Kindle eBooks > Nonfiction > Politics & Social Sciences > Politics & Government > Specific Topics > Civics
#3 in Books > Politics & Social Sciences > Politics & Government > Specific Topics > Civics & Citizenship
#7 in Kindle Store > Kindle eBooks > Biographies & Memoirs > Leaders & Notable People > Political

Annnnd....I just read the “Sponsored books” related to Hillary’s book - it is shown further down the page. All anti-Trump. So then I picked book Trump wrote and checked “Sponsored books” further down THAT page. What do you know - all anti-Trump books in the first group (one is neutral but implies we’d better start brushing up on our rights as citizens STAT!). One anti-trump book that appeared on both his and her page is :

Conscience of a Conservative: A Rejection of Destructive Politics and a Return to Principle Kindle Edition
by Jeff Flake

A conservative took issue with that book saying it should read “Conscience of a Never-Trumper”

Amazing Trump ever got elected - the MSM controls almost everything that passes before our eyes. How it must GALL that he won in spite of them all. Like the Grinch Who Stole Christmas realizing that Christmas came without the trees, toys etc., the left “had” to face knowing that they took everything they could and still he won.

I can see it. Going from running a fraudulent charity to running a fraudulent church should be profitable and second nature for the old gal.

Hillary had better be careful, because “huckstering God” is dangerous.

“When I would hear Hillary speak, knowing that she was a Methodist, I just heard so many resonances—about education, about women’s rights, about the importance of community,” she said. “Because of that, it was just baffling to me that so many other Americans not only didn’t know she was Methodist, but didn’t accept that she was Christian.”

You could have fooled me! I’ve always held the belief that she’s Satan’s spawn. I guess I don’t know much about Methodists.

Specifically, she wants to get PAID to preach.

This evil woman ravenously supports every form of unfettered murderous abortion! For that alone she should die a horrible painful death and roast in hell for all eternity.

“It was just baffling to me that so many other Americans ... didn’t accept that she was Christian.”

Well, far be it from me to judge, but generally speaking, Christians don’t off their political enemies, sell out their country, lie like dead dogs, support the murder of unborn babies, or drink themselves into oblivion. Just sayin’.
