I found him to be a humble man, said Dr. Darrell Scott, the senior pastor of New Spirit Revival Ministries in Cleveland Heights, Ohio...........
Scott said he was especially taken aback by how Trump ended their first meeting.
He said, Pray for me that God leads me in the direction that he wants me to go in, recalled Scott. I was flabbergasted. He stood up and he bowed his head and he closed his eyes and we prayed.

Wow. I’m a Trumpster, and know he’s a master showman. But IF he is in fact humbling himself to be led by God, no power on earth will stop him.

Then came a black-and-white photograph
from his confirmation to further prove his Christian cred.Confirmation? That's a Catholic thing, isn't it? Why wasn't he groveling at The Pope's feet like the rest of those poor suckers?

I am also wondering if the Left will apply the same demand they do for those who question Obama’s “christianity”. We are expected to take him at his word, despite his overwhelming love and support for Islam over Christianity at every opportunity possible. So now that Trump says he believes in the Bible, the Left will accept that on face value, right????

No need to panic. Trump is a Presbyterian.

If it wasn't for double-standards, the Men Seeking Men mediums would have no standards at all.

By the same token, those of us on the right should apply the same skepticism to Trump’s claim (and literal bible-waving) as we do to Obama’s. I don’t believe Obama, and I don’t believe Trump. Blatant and obvious pandering.

I just hope he’s not a Muslim, especially if he is elected.
Series, we have had enough of that.

Given that people doubt he’s Christian he needs to be humble about it
I know it’s partly show but I hope it’s not cynical
For his sake

I think Trump is pandering here as well. I pray that he will come to the Truth in the Bible. I hold out no such hope for Obama.

Trump has been open about his faith for over a decade, albeit mostly quietly. But doubt away.
