What a total misrepresentation of what the pastor said. He start off by saying they still believe in the no sex commandment. but we also believe in forgiveness, upon repentance.
did you miss that part or simply not understand it?
I guess I missed the part where Trump even admitted to wrongdoing, let alone expressed genuine remorse and contrition. What isn't this pastor willing to overlook in Trump's case, so long as it's between Trump and 'his god' -- i.e. the being he pretends to believe in and worship in order to secure Evangelical political support?
He's not one of them, and they know it. Trump's "Christianity" is all just a pleasant fiction based on mutual political need. He needs their votes; they need a pliable president who will rubber stamp their legislative wish list. It's not really Evangelical hypocrisy. It's Evangelical cynicism.
Fruit inspector sport. The pastor was pointing to the deeds of Trump as being one who is in good standing with God. (Doesn't deny God defend his own version of morality) Which was the reason to bring up the deeds/Fruit of trump. As a thorn bush can not yield grapes.
