One of President Trump's top evangelical allies is calling on Christians to accept that Joe Biden is more than likely to take office as president in January.
Robert Jeffress, pastor of First Baptist Dallas, one of Texas's biggest megachurches, called Biden's apparent victory a "bitter pill to swallow" for Christians, but one that they must accept for the good of the country. At the same time, Jeffress on Wednesday said that he thinks a Biden administration will pose threats to religious liberty and anti-abortion interests, out-of-step with the former vice president's calls for "unity."

This is the reason young people turn away from Christianity. No courage of convictions and strength.

This is really an atrocious betrayal not matter how much he dresses it up. To use a Bible reference: At one point in King David's reign it seemed as though Absalom had the upper hand in his rebellion. At that time David's close companion Ahitophel deserted him. It was gut-wrenching for David as I'm sure Jeffries, Netanyahu, Ingraham, et. al. are for DJT. Here was what David wrote about the defector:
For it is not an enemy who taunts me
then I could bear it;
it is not an adversary who deals insolently with me
then I could hide from him.
But it is you, a man, my equal,
my companion, my familiar friend.
We used to take sweet counsel together;

Shame on you, Pastor
Your app has gone the same way as Fox
Outta there.
We Christians need to accept nothing on the other side

Who gives a flying f**k what any religious leader has to say about it? Turning the other cheek will not stop the criminal theft of a national election and will do nothing to endear yourself to the fascists/marxists. I long ago gave up on organized religion/denominations because of their long history of political meddling. My faith in God is separate from my faith in the Constitution which, by the way protects the former; at least for as long as we can keep it.

It's either 1(real/alive/eligible)person, 1 vote...or it's fraud.
Fraud is not/should never be..."acceptable".

I am an ordained minister and I find Robert Jeffress, First Baptist Dallas, to be nothing but a money making business that has nothing to do with Christianity. No Christian should ever accept political leaders that go against all things Holy.

Republicans should be complaining about voter suppression. If someone casts an illegal vote it suppresses someone’s legal vote. My bet is a high percentage of illegal votes were for Biden, so they suppressed legal Republican votes.

“for the good of the country” is the same Leftist language that keeps the steal from being discovered. Please carry on with the fight to unveil the election day crime.

He’s lost all credibility with Spirit filled Christians.
