Former Rep. Adam Kinzinger (R-Ill.) bashed former President Trump online and said Christians who support him “don’t understand” their religion.
“I’m going to go out on a NOT limb here: this man is not a Christian,” Kinzinger said on X, formerly known as Twitter, responding to Trump’s Christmas post. “If you are a Christian who supports him you don’t understand your own religion.”
Kinzinger, one of Trump’s fiercest critics in the GOP, said in his post that “Trump is weak, meager, smelly, victim-ey, belly-achey, but he ain’t a Christian and he’s not ‘God’s man.’”
Frankly, I don’t need the threat of eternal damnation to stop me from being a piece of shit.
You might not, but if you look around plenty of people do. Including the subject of this story.
Unfortunately it looks like the people who do need that don’t follow their scripture anyway. Conservative evangelicals are antithetical to what their Bible instructs.
They’re really not though. Maybe you should actually read the Bible
I have, which is why I say that. The overall theme of the NT is love for your neighbor and to help the most downtrodden in society. Not only does Jesus say it’s really difficult for rich people to get into heaven, he also says people who don’t help the poor won’t go to heaven.
“I will deny them, and say they did not feed me when I was hungry, and they did not clothe me when I was cold. They will ask when they ever did that, and I say to you, whatever you do to the least of you, you do to me as well.”
Paraphrased, but you get the idea.
