The US evangelical movement is entirely unconnected with what any rational person would call grace or love. It is a movement about hate and racism.
Then ask him to recite literally any bible verse.

Sorry but the words of a pedophile carry little weight with me.
You referring to the pastor or Trump?
Yes.
All religion is mental illness. But nothing gives me the heebie-jeebies more than “christian pastor”. UGH
Atleast my stock in Orville Redenbacher is doing well…
Megachurches are a cancer on society.
Dude didn’t even know there was a new and old testament.
All I want to know is when the church will start booting these guys to the curb and denouncing them.
He’s an evangelical, so the only requirement he has is saying ‘I’m a pastor.’ This particular one already has a litany of controversial quotes and, like many evangelicals, is staunchly anti-catholic, calling them a satanic Babylonian cult at one point.
Is this the same guy who just did a blessing of a golden statue of Trump, insisting it wasn’t a golden calf?
Different guy, same ilk.
Just as there are Americans who are not enamored with Trump who are not getting the media spotlight, there are Christians reacting negatively. But the media is focusing on the Maga Nationalist Christians. It’s simply more profitable to focus on the extremists.
Here are some examples that the media has only touched on lightly.
“While I’m at it, I’m going to say what I feel right here. I wish the president of the United States would clean up his language. I wish he would stop insulting people. A leader should not give himself to insulting people all the time, and using foul language. And while I’m at it, I’m going to finish: everybody in the White House cusses except two women that say they are born again. But they’re all foul mouthed. Let me tell you what the Bible says: “From the abundance of the heart, the mouth speaks.” Listen, don’t you dare get being conservative mixed up with being a Christian. Conservative does not mean Christian. You can be pro-life, you can be pro-Biblical family, you can be pro-Israel and die and go to Hell. You can be all of that stuff and that does not make you a Christian. Folks, I am a Christian. I am not a white Christian. You’re not a black Christian. I’m not in a white evangelical movement. There’s no such thing as a black church. We are one in Christ. There is neither male nor female. There is neither black, or white, or slave, or poor. We are all one in Jesus Christ. No! Go ahead and praise the Lord! Don’t talk about the people that represent you. They don’t represent me.”

John Piper Under Fire for Referring to Trump’s Re-Election as an ‘Evil’
NOV 7, 2024
He criticized Donald Trump and the Southern Baptist Convention’s response to a sexual abuse crisis. Then he found himself on the outside.
Who is he? Russell Moore was one of the top officials in the Southern Baptist Convention.

During his Sunday sermon, Pastor James Rigby who leads St. Andrew’s Presbyterian in Austin, he noted that people have “mixed feelings” about the shooting but affirmed, “It’s really really important if we are going to be the healing agents of the world to realize that violence is not going to get rid of the problem that we have.”
“I said last week, if violence could have gotten rid of racism, the Civil War would have worked,” he continued. “But if you look at the Bible Belt and the heart of the MAGA movement, it is the Confederacy. The America they want to get back to is the Confederate States of America, not the United States of America.”
The pastor further stressed that “It’s very important that even as we fight for justice, even as we protect each other from this fascistic movement, that we not do to them what they’re doing to the rest of us.

The Bishop of Palm Beach Manuel de Jesús Rodríguez wrote on X on Thursday: “The renewed attacks directed by President Trump against our Holy Father, Pope Leo XIV, are entirely inconsistent with the Pope’s longstanding witness to justice, peace, and the dignity of every human person.”
Rodríguez has previously criticized Trump’s immigration rhetoric and policies

“I think a lot of moderates, a lot of centrist Republicans and Democrats, are saying, ‘This is not right,‘” Hamilton told Religion News Service. “Whether it’s how we treat immigrants and making people afraid in our own borders, or the rhetoric that comes out of Washington, or cutting programs like SNAP and other programs that affect low-income children and families in America, I think there’s a lot of pastors and a lot of Christians who have just said, ‘This is not us.’”

Edit: inserting dates so that you can see it’s not all recent, but has been going on for years. Yes, I did focus on a lot of the recent ones. And this is not all, I simply got tired of typing. It’s tiring reporting on what the media resists reporting.
I assumed you were saying you want to know when the church replaces crucifixes and Christ references with trump. Doesn’t seem far off to me.
So these people are stupid, of course.
They are not THAT stupid
They know what they’re saying
They know it’s all bullshit
They are also a pastor
This means that this pastor is full of shit and he knows it
He knows he’s evil yet continues preaching for trump
This guy literally is the guy that imaginary bible warns about
And all “Christians” are following him because of course
This unfortunately, these American Christian evangelicals are also chuds
What’s Donald Trump’s favorite book or passages from the Bible? “All of them”. New or old Testament? “Both”. It’s deeply personal though, so he won’t say.
And the Pope would probably only reference a few specific passages, probably doesn’t even know any others. If President Trump said he loves them all, then CLEARLY he’s read them all!
thats bullshit of course.
Is there anything more Protestant than worshipping a golden calf, then getting mad when someone suggests that might be heresy.
And then people are surprised by decreasing church attendance. I’m glad I’m an atheist
I have no idea about those numbers, but I seem to be seeing religion pushed more and more in daily life. More religious vendors at the local farm shops, more young people (in our sphere) talking about it or involving themselves with it. My cynical self feels like it is subversively (isn’t it always?) being pushed.
Edit: Forgot to mention the billboards and bumper stickers I see too.
