Top evangelical Trump ally calls for Christians to accept Biden as president-elect
Washington Examiner ^ | 11/11/20 | Nicholas Rowan

Posted on 11/11/2020 12:23:54 PM PST by BuckeyeGW

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."

Screww that. No transparency, no peace.

The only way anyone should accept the election results is after a hand count of all votes in swing states and only after all fraudulent votes are eliminated.

You accept it Robert. In the meantime we will fight corruption that permeates our government. We refuse to rollover like people such as yourself always do.

He donated a dollar to Trump's campaign so that supposedly makes him an ally.

Premature, Rev. Got to stop rolling over or THIS bunch will roll us over into the Coliseum with hungry lions. Just like the Apostle Paul, we need to assert our rights as citizens.

This article in the Washington Examiner is somewhat misleading. In the column for Fox News that the article references, the pastor says something to the effect of “Biden will be the president if the president’s legal challenges fail.” He doesn’t say we have to accept the outcome now, but that we should be praying for Biden in the meantime.

He thinks he won’t be one of them.

Many on the left think they won’t be one of them.

They’re in for a shock.

There is NO REASON To “heal” or “forgive” or “move on”

Does voting fraud happen? of course.

FIVE STATES stopped counting at the same time after FL was called!!!

All swing states!!

What a jerk (jerk wasn’t my first word but the only one i could use here)

Horsecrap. Here’s exactly what the guy said, in the first sentence of the actual article this one only referenced:

“It appears that former Vice President Joe Biden will become the 46th president of the United States on Jan. 20, unless President Trump succeeds in legal challenges to the counting of votes in several states.”

More likely that he has been a victim of the nonstop MSM propaganda and is convinced that Trump really lost. I have followed Jeffress's ministry for decades and don't think that he would demand assent to a known lie. However, he should consider the following:

Although the following quote from Theodore Dalrymple is not directly from the Bible it bears on the reason why Christians should not cooperate with lies in government and public life. When one considers that Satan is the Father of lies, we should somberly contemplate what we are doing when we cooperate with lies. The quote follows:

The purpose of communist propaganda was not to persuade or convince, not to inform, but to humiliate; and therefore, the less it corresponded to reality the better. When people are forced to remain silent when they are being told the most obvious lies, or even worse when they are forced to repeat the lies themselves, they lose once and for all their sense of probity. To assent to obvious lies is in some small way to become evil oneself. One’s standing to resist anything is thus eroded and even destroyed. A society of emasculated liars is easy to control. –Theodore Dalrymple

Praying the pastor is blessed with understanding the process of determining the next president. Line so many others, clueless.

I always found him to be creepy when he was on Lou Dobbs. Back when we still watched any Fox channel.

Now we watch News Max TV and Real America’s Voice. Included free in most satellite/cable.
