Just like the Constitutional “originalists”, some want to make believe about the Bible and what it “really means”.Evangelicals are now rejecting 'liberal' teachings of Jesus
Christian devotees of former President Donald Trump are denouncing Bible verses attributed to Jesus as "weak," according to an evangelical leader.
The recent schism in the United Methodist Church is a prime example.

This is news?Evangelicals are now rejecting 'liberal' teachings of Jesus

Evangelicals have always treated the Bible as a buffet.
Donald Trump is not a Christian. If he were arrested for being
a Christian, there would not be enough evidence to convict him.

Jesus was woke. Jesus didn't hate people for who they were, what color they were, or who they loved. That is a friction point for the faux Christians running the GOP today.
Jesus taught love, mercy, kindness, compassion, obedience to God's law, fear of the Lord, the sinfulness of mankind, the need for salvation, moral absolutism, universal truth.
That is not woke.
Correct. Why can’t everyone else hold them accountable for their bullshit?
You are correct in that Jesus did not hate. Liberals also say they protect and care about everyone. Whoops guess this thread proves that wrong. Just like liberals don’t love, MAGA’s don’t love.
To a modern age MAGA voter who claims to be Christian, and who claims to accept the teachings of Jesus, he's woke.
How is your relationship with Christ? Do you feel like you follow His teachings?
I’ve said this many times I am just so discouraged on the effect Trump has had on the church. I thought we learned our lesson with Mark Driscoll but nope.
Honestly, the “church” should be embarrassed. I have never been religious, but once all these Christian groups started touting Trump as some sort of modern-day messiah, it pretty much confirmed what I already knew: these people are full of shit and Christianity is a joke.
Seriously. If Christianity had any validity, millions of its adherents would see Donald Trump for what he is: a liar and a con artist. How many pussies would Jesus grab or porn stars would he pay off? Lol. What a joke.
You could always find another Church.
I never hear Trump mentioned at mine...thank God.

You are legendary on being on the right side of history, having seen it all.
Not hyperbolic, a true reading of the New Testament yields the unmistakable truth that a sizable portion of US Christians will be turned away from heaven.
It’s crystal clear.
Honestly, the ahead of the time, meek shall inherit the earth, don’t go over the top praying in public, it is ok to rub shoulders with both sinners and saints and whores, and the rich man / eye of needle allegory chances to heaven are most compelling evidence the document is divine.
Good points.
Alot of protestant theology that many evangelicals believe is "sola fide" which means "faith alone" is how the saved get to Heaven and that's clearly not the message of the New Testament.
Well said, sir.
It is a sad commentary to see maga Christians “follow” that guy.
They have sold their souls is how many would see it.
I can understand why many support Trump considering the Democrat's relentless promotion or abortion and other issues like transgenderism.
You are gonna forgive the other sins drump promotes?
He is a liar, thief, cheat, adulteral, crook etc…
If you suggest his path is the way, you are a hypocrite.
Nope. I never voted for Trump but I can see why some voters wouldn't want to vote for Harris after she gave an interview saying doctors should be forced to perform abortions even if it goes against their conscience.
Doctors were never gonna be forced to perform abortions. Your sources are not legit.
You have reminded me why I had you on ignore. Your sources are inaccurate, tho you promote them. Good bye.
I try to keep an open mind with you religious freaks, but FU and you’re bigoted views!
The Washington Post is not legit? Hardly.
You were legitimatizing the MAGA viewpoint, because you agree with their stance on abortion and trans issues. Be better.
I am trying to see things from everyone's perspective. I realize that's rare in our extremely divided society.
Nice try, but I don’t see it that way at all. You can’t hide your bigotry Brian, no matter how hard you try.
What he meant was, he doesn't like that, so he just won't believe it's real.
There's a lot of folks on this board who absolutely can't understand how you can articulate a viewpoint without holding it as your own.
