I’m not a fan of Hagee and would not attend his church. That said, he does have a lot of followers and it certainly will not hurt Huckabee to speak at his church. I doubt that Huckabee agrees with much of Hagee’s theology, and I would not hold it against Huckabee if he speaks there.
Huckabee is about my 3-4 choice, but no one can question his ability to bring out the evangelical vote in numbers far surpassing any previous election.
I should have said, “was not”, not “is not.” I don’t think he’s claiming that Jesus IS not the messiah. But I’d still like some clarification on what he believes.
Here is a page on Hagee from a group called the Christian Research Institute
http://www.equip.org/site/c.muI1LaMNJrE/b.2871113/k.B45A/DH005.htm
Following excerpt from: http://www.olivetreeviews.org/articles/Jans_eUpdates.shtml#newsitemEEAZAkpllutLuNjchI
But in Hagee’s new book he almost goes beyond all of that. In the book he states, (1) The Jewish people as a whole did not reject Jesus as Messiah; (2) Jesus did not come to earth to be the Messiah; (3) Jesus refused by word and deed to claim to be the Messiah; (4) How can the Jews be blamed for rejecting what was never offered them? He further states there was a “Calvary conspiracy” between Rome, the High Priest, and Herod. The conspiracy was to execute Jesus as an insurrectionist who was too dangerous to be allowed to live.
I am not hiding my head in the sand, and you can criticize the Catholic Church all you wish. My statement stands about Hagee. If you wish some proof go here (there’s more): http://www.catholicleague.org/chatterbox.php

What mistakes are you talking about?
Stuff like this, and Pat Robertson endorsing Giuliani makes me wonder if we're getting closer to the end. The bible talks about people straying from sound doctrine and being deceived. Unless he has some valid explanation, it sounds like that may be the case here.
The thread is about Hagee (and Huckabee), isn’t it? And if Hagee is considered an anti-Catholic, that’s going to concern Catholics. And it will be a consideration regarding Huckabee’s campaign.
This thread isn’t really about “Catholic mistakes”.
BTW, all denominations of Christian churches have and do make mistakes.
All of this should be easy enough to understand.
Huckster will never receive my vote!!
Pastor Hagee believes in a dual covenant, one for Jews and one for non-Jews. I don’t see where scripture says there is any other way to saved other than the one Jesus provided. I love Jews and Israel, but not telling the truth about salvation has eternal consequences.
Unlike some of the fakirs and fleecers, Hagee takes a 35K salary a year.
when he lets loose on infanticide, I’m like “yeah baby”....something like....”one day those in our congress will answer to a higher authority for this abomination”....jowls trembling.....lol.....he’s old school
and he minces no words about Islam...thinks it the arm of the dark prince
and is a huge....maybe the most vocal Israel supporter btw
i am really ignorant of the issues Catholics have with him to be honest...
it’s Catholic backlash...and anti-fundamentalism here on FR
Hagee is a fundamentalist....and conservative culturally.....all evengelicals are not .........a nuance lost on many here
I AM NOT A HUCKSTER SUPPORTER
they have their own agenda...as u already know
John Hagee hasn’t said anything about the Catholic Church that isn’t true. Kathy Lopez can whine about “tone” all she wants, but anyone who reads objective history on the subject knows that Hitler’s blueprint came from the Papists.
Thank you for exposing Hagee’s errors!
Btw, I always thought he was a good preacher (from what I've seen of him, which I admit isn't a lot) and I especially like that he has been a strong vocal supporter of Israel. But if he does believe those things and is teaching that, it's very misleading and has eternal consequences.
Thanks. Interesting information on Hagee in that link.
