Pat Robertson: People Who Oppose Trump Are Revolting Against GodBy Brian Tashman | February 15, 2017 5:12 pm
Today on The 700 Club, Pat Robertson wondered if President Obama and other Democrats may have participated in a grand conspiracy to bring down President Trumps national security adviser Michael Flynn, who resigned on Monday over his communications with Russias U.S. ambassador.
Referring to Psalm 2:2, The kings of the earth rise up and the rulers band together against the Lord and against his anointed, Robertson said that those challenging Trump are really fighting against God:

Hortensis
(58,785 posts)more still don't worry that Satan may be directing their political passions. After all, for a long time now their political leaders have literally depended almost entirely on deceit and calumny, they support evils denounced by the Bible, they encourage followers in the behaviors their lord says he hates, they even reject many of the lessons of Jesus. And it's not as if their Bible doesn't warn them of just this. It's more than a little redundant on the subject, actually.
Hard times for those ministers who don't lack insight, I'm guessing. Do your duty to God and your congregation and get fired.

(37 posts)Hes always been an out of touch loon. Listening to him is pointless. In general i have very little interest or regard for televangelists. Anybody who gets rich off God has serious moral issues. As Bono said, "My Gods not short on cash Mr."
I think God prob threw up abit in his mouth when Trump was elected.

(14,856 posts)He's become so rich because he's saying things that an awful lot of Christians want to hear. They want him to continue saying these things and they're willing to pay him very, very well to do it.

(13,485 posts)He really believes his own rhetoric. That's what makes him so convincing to the unthinking that plead every day of their lives for a great white father to fill in the empty gaps in their intellect. It takes a special kind of crazy to have that kind of talent.

And what I do I will continue to do, in order to end this pretext of those who seek a pretext for being regarded as we are in the mission of which they boast.

* For such people are false apostles, deceitful workers, who masquerade as apostles of Christ.
14
And no wonder, for even Satan masquerades as an angel of light.
15
So it is not strange that his ministers also masquerade as ministers of righteousness. Their end will correspond to their deeds.
Oh yeah - Go Fuck yourself....they didn't teach that in Catholic school....but it's the modern way to tell you false ministers of your false prophet what you can do to yourself...

(2,056 posts)And from where I sit...every disgusting thing Trump is attempting to do is far from Christian behavior. If anyone is revolting against God and the teachings of Christ it's Trump and his cult followers.

(883 posts)Read daily to help get through this idiots administration. 10 is really appropriate. Psalms 58 is a great curse. Just saying.
Psalms 10
1 Why standest thou afar off, O LORD? why hidest thou thyself in times of trouble? 2 The wicked in his pride doth persecute the poor: let them be taken in the devices that they have imagined. 3 For the wicked boasteth of his heart's desire, and blesseth the covetous, whom the LORD abhorreth. 4 The wicked, through the pride of his countenance, will not seek after God: God is not in all his thoughts. 5 His ways are always grievous; thy judgments are far above out of his sight: as for all his enemies, he puffeth at them. 6 He hath said in his heart, I shall not be moved: for I shall never be in adversity. 7 His mouth is full of cursing and deceit and fraud: under his tongue is mischief and vanity. 8 He sitteth in the lurking places of the villages: in the secret places doth he murder the innocent: his eyes are privily set against the poor. 9 He lieth in wait secretly as a lion in his den: he lieth in wait to catch the poor: he doth catch the poor, when he draweth him into his net. 10 He croucheth, and humbleth himself, that the poor* may fall by his strong ones. 11 He hath said in his heart, God hath forgotten: he hideth his face; he will never see it. 12 Arise, O LORD; O God, lift up thine hand: forget not the humble*. 13 Wherefore doth the wicked contemn God? he hath said in his heart, Thou wilt not require it. 14 Thou hast seen it; for thou beholdest mischief and spite, to requite it with thy hand: the poor committeth himself unto thee; thou art the helper of the fatherless. 15 Break thou the arm of the wicked and the evil man: seek out his wickedness till thou find none. 16 The LORD is King for ever and ever: the heathen are perished out of his land. 17 LORD, thou hast heard the desire of the humble: thou wilt prepare their heart, thou wilt cause thine ear to hear: 18 To judge the fatherless and the oppressed, that the man of the earth may no more oppress.
