In an impromptu conversation with a local pastor at Main Street Bakery in Columbia S.C. yesterday, Hillary Clinton calls the Bible "the living Word" and impressed a local pastor with her knowledge and command of scripture.
CNN first reported the story of Rev. Frederick Donnie Hunt's encounter with Clinton. He was asked by the presidential candidate what he was studying in his Bible. Hunt replied 1 Corinthians 13, and Clinton responded, "Oh I know it well."
The former First Lady and Secretary of State then recited 1 Corinthians 13:4, the well known verse about love, from memory — "Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud." Clinton's biblical knowledge made an impression on the local assistant minister of Columbia's First Calvary Baptist Church.
"You're doing what is the most important thing to do, it's continuing to study and learn what the scripture says and what it means," Clinton told Hunt. "I have a preacher friend who sends me scripture and devotionals, sometimes mini-sermons every day."
Hunt responded to Clinton that you "always learn something when you read it again and inspect it." And Clinton replied, "Well, it's alive. It's the living Word."
Hunt, a Democrat and former Barack Obama voter, told CNN's Dan Merica in a phone interview that "I was impressed and glad that she knew the scripture that I was reading and studying at the time.
"It impressed me that someone running for president has that background. It is important to me that we have a president that has some belief," Hunt added.
Hunt is now backing Clinton's bid for the White House.

Vince Foster agrees.
I can tell when an egg is rotten. Doesn't make me a chicken.
What Hilary may mean by saying the Bible is ‘the living word’, is to say that the interpretation is ‘organic’, ever changing, always evolving in ways to benefit the majority of the group. This is the same way Al Gore and others may see the our Constitution.
Even Satan knows the Scriptures....... did the pastor notice the split tongue when she spoke?
And Planned Parenthood.....the Killing world....
Hillary Clinton is an opportunistic fraud. She seeks only money and power, and is not to be trusted....like readers of FreeRepublic don't know that! - ha!
If you believe this wasn’t scripted I have a video that started Benghazi I want to sell you.
Pray America is waking
Doesn’t take much to impress a libtard pastor... probably be impressed if she stated water was wet.
A Hillary Clinton speech should be accepted as “The Lying Word”.
If she were to dare to open the Bible her hand would wither.
In an impromptu conversation = completely staged in clintonese.
It’s like that other living document, the Constitution. She thinks it means whatever you WANT it to mean and you can change it by judicial decree.
Did she say it in jive?
My thoughts exactly.....
this is just PLAIN OLD CLINTON LYING BULLSHIT.......
the last time hillary touched a bible was to tear a page out to wipe hairy ass...
she is for abortion and every other libtard anti religion program...
she sure aa shit doesn’t live like a christian, nor act like one..
she has benghazi blood on her hands and plotted to murder khadaffy, who pleaded for safe passage for he and his family and this pig bitch murdered him...
keep in mind he was helping us fight al queda... our enemies and meantime hillary and obama were and are helping them... TRAITORS
The Christian Post has fluffed Hillary numerous times over the years.
exactly what I thought when I read it. “living word” = “living document”
Filthy liar. She says what we want to hear. Her guiding principles are marxism, not Scripture.
