Nick Adams is apparently a fool and Trump isn't even a Christian, let alone a "strong" one.

Did he not get word that Trump said last year that he's not Christian. Once more for proof:
No.

if this administration continues its current path, we will see more of these posts. We will see more leaders in the old denominations (Episcopal, Lutheran, Methodist and Presbyterian to name a few) a few Catholics and maybe some nondenominationals take this message from the pulpit and social media posts and into the streets.Wow.

Trump will treat them just like he has businesses and universities. He will threaten their financial livelihood by threatening to take away tax status. He will label them domestic terrorists and use that label as justification to take away tax status. He’s already doing it to nonprofits.
The greatest threat to speech, assembly and press is happening today. He will apply that to religion and to guns.

In a lawsuit, Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton claims a state agency is discriminating against Christians who want to advertise in the Driver’s Handbook.
Small problem: The handbook doesn't run ads. For anyone.

No ads in a state publication is quite a blessing. The AG should quit trying to find a problem where there is none.In a lawsuit, Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton claims a state agency is discriminating against Christians who want to advertise in the Driver’s Handbook.

Trump is more popular with MAGA idiots than Jesus. Times were saner back when John Lennon said the Beatles were more popular than Jesus.

Good for him, but all I can say is it is about time. The fact that there are not an overwhelming flood of these videos coming out of churches all over the country shows that the religion has a lot of work to do to get to the principles of the religion as I understand them.

He spent decades bringing the religious right to power. Now he's marching to undo it.
"Being here, in solidarity, is part of the repair work in my own soul," says Rev. Rob Schenck, an Evangelical minister who spent decades helping build America's Religious Right—commingling church and state to advance conservative causes like the anti-abortion movement.
Now, he says he must confront the damage he helped cause, including what he believes was his role in delivering "the entities that are now inflicting all of this suffering on so many people." One example: Schenck's organization, Faith and Action in the Nation's Capital, created "Operation Higher Court," which trained wealthy couples as "stealth missionaries" to befriend Supreme Court justices to preserve, in his words, a Christian nation.
"So now I have to do the work of repair," he told Mother Jones digital producer Sam Van Pykeren in the icy streets of Minneapolis on Friday during the city's "Day of Truth and Freedom"—a citywide strike and march in which clergy played a prominent role.
"These folks are showing more grace in accepting me than I would have ever extended to them," Schenck says, flanked by organizers shouting, "Whose streets? Our streets!"The next day, after learning of federal agents shooting and killing Alex Pretti, Schenck extended his stay in the city. More from his journey, and the clergy's fight against ICE, coming soon.
"This is redemption," he told Sam. "This is redemption."

Every Founding Father "would be labeled a far-right Christian Nationalist," said Indiana Lt. Gov. Micah Beckwith.
He's rewriting history because facts contradict his theology.

This reminds me of a sermon I heard about once. Not really a sermon but a dramatization. It’s anecdotal bc I didn’t see it but was told about it by a pastor who heard about this. He said he had been preaching on Mathew 25. Specifically the parable about the king who tells the subjects away from me. You did not feed me when hungry. Give me drink when thirsty.
So the preacher preaches. Takes the next week off. For two weeks he doesn’t shave or shower. Finds old clothes and keeps them in his trash for two weeks. Goes out Sunday morning and runs dirt all over his hair face and hands. Gets dressed in the smelly filthy clothes and pulls a hoodie down over his unshaven face. Prior to service he goes to the front steps and w a cup to beg for change. He gets in peoples bubbles to make the unconfortable. Just grunts doesn’t ever make eye contact or look up. Sometimes lays across the steps. Any way service starts and it’s time for him as pastor to walk in and take the pulpit. But this Sunday he comes in the front door. Hoodie down head down. As he walks down the center aisle he starts peeling the layers of filthy smelly clothes keeping his head down. The hoodie was under a jacket and some oversized tshirts. He gets to the front, walks up to the sop step of the stage and sits down. Raises his head and removes the hood to his sweatshirt. They now know their pastor was the beggar. He dumps the cup on the ground for dramatic effect to reveal a little more than a dollar in change.
Silence from the entire sanctuary. He opens his Bible to Mathew 25 v42. Reads 42-45. Closes his Bible. Stands up and walks back out the center aisle. When he gets to the back doors of the sanctuary. He opens a door doesn’t look back and shouts “See you next Sunday.” Gets in his car and goes home.
Says he doesn’t know what happened after he left, but in the months and year that followed their pantry, local food/clothing outreach and prison ministry saw more growth than ever before in his ministry. And all bc of a sermon wo a word. He felt more kindness from the congregation.
Your post made me think of this bc our actions taking religion out of it reveal our heart. Christian, Muslim, Buddhist or atheist. We can spout spiritual words or kind words but our actions are what tell people who we are.
