I will bash aberrant hermeneutics whenever and wherever I see it.

Please link me to verification that he said, “I can forgive myself.”

True. But does that then infer that he believes he’s never done anything that needs forgiveness? Or does he ‘forgive himself’?

God uses all of us, as a willing slave or an unwilling instrument. The Spirit blows where It will.

You know, God can use anyone. The lesson in Daniel is God, not man, raises up and takes down kings and kingdoms. God used Nebuchadnezzar BEFORE Nebuchadnezzar came to believe. I believe Trump in the same way can become a believer (but I hope he doesn’t have to go insane to get there).

Who are you to judge? You're the only one I've heard complaining.

You didn’t get Donald Trump’s statement quite right, geron. Thanks, SotC, for posting the correct version.

Trump did say he’s never asked God for forgiveness. He did NOT say he only asked himself for forgiveness. Don’t flat out lie about the man’s remarks, geron.

Who are we to judge one person’s faith/walk with the Lord?

Yes, I agree with you. God can use anyone including Trump. And he doesn’t necessarily use Christians. Jeremiah Johnson is well respected, I wouldn’t dismiss his words.

The primary season is supposed to include many views so as to influence the Republican Platform. We need Trump for illegal immigration and foreign trade.

Unfortunately, the GOPe has rigged the game so that what the voters want never happens.

Dole Rejects a Party Plank
August 24, 1996

NASHVILLE, Aug. 23— Publicly repudiating a portion of his party's platform for the first time since the Republican National Convention, Bob Dole told a convention of black journalists here today that he would not support a constitutional amendment to deny automatic citizenship for children who are born in this country to illegal immigrants.

Mr. Dole, who made no secret at the convention that he had not yet read the entire platform, implied today that he had now given it a more thorough review and did not like everything he saw, including the proposed immigration amendment.

‘’I have due respect for the platform,’’ Mr. Dole said. ‘’I read a lot of parts that I thought were essential. I approved of a lot of parts that I thought were essential. That was not one of them.’’ (snip)

Marla Maples wasn't a porn star.

Or perhaps you can provide a link for that too?

If a woman can trust her husband why would I trust him with my country?

Hmmm. Paul and the believers of his time knew what God is doing. God says in his Word he wants you to know what he is doing. But if you don’t want to know, he won’t push himself on you.

This is what he is reported to have said, it’s there or he likely didn’t say it.

I have not seen where Trump said he just forgives himself. But he did say he does not ask God for forgiveness.
IOW, he accepts full responsibility for his actions...HOW REFRESHING!

Sinners go out and continue to sin without guilt because of the hypocritical, selfish notion you will be forgiven if you just ask. Asking for forgiveness for yourself is hypocritical and selfish.

I couldn't agree more with Trump on this

Church is just a gathering place for self-righteous hypocrites.

Think of this as more of a prayer than a prophesy. Many ppl, believers and unbelievers are looking and hoping for someone to undo the damage that Obama has done.

At this point they believe that if it is not Trump, it has to be someone like him that can withstand the war that the cornered political class will unleash to ensure their survival.

BTW Bill O’reilly of FOX...is not for Trump there would be no Kate’s law!!

Please overlook any formatting or typos, this is my 1st FR post
