Nearly all Cabinet officials attend Bible lessons with right-wing pastor who compares Trump to biblical heroesSource: Raw Story
These are godly individuals that God has risen to a position of prominence in our culture, said Capitol Ministries president and founder Ralph Drollinger. According to CBN, the majority of the cabinet officials attend a frequent Bible study class, that is the first of its kind in at least 100 years.
He has long maintained that changing the hearts of lawmakers to see a Christian worldview could guide them to making good policies. While he doesnt lobby on behalf of peace or advocate policies that would fit a Jesus-like agenda, he has started a Bible study group in 40 state capitols as well as foreign capitols. He teaches weekly Bible study classes for the U.S. House and Senate and now leads a group of nearly all of Trumps cabinet officials.
Health and Human Services Secretary Tom Price, Energy Secretary Rick Perry, Education Secretary Betsy Devos, Agriculture Secretary Sonny Perdue and CIA Director Mike Pompeo are all regular attendees.
The most notable, however, is Attorney General Jeff Sessions.
Hell go out the same day I teach him something and Ill see him do it on camera and I just think, Wow, these guys are faithful, available and teachable and theyre at Bible study every week theyre in town,' Drollinger said of his influence.
He said that the group is the best hes ever taught because the officials are so teachable; theyre so noble; theyre so learned.

(82,849 posts)Mr. Drollinger doesn't waste a lot of time on that whole "first shall be last and the last shall be first" nonsense or the apostles holding everything in common and distributing their goods to anyone as they had need for it. Probably not real big on housing the homeless, clothing the naked, or comforting the sick and imprisoned, either. And you can just forget about that all those verses dealing with welcoming the alien and the stranger, because fuck 'em, right?
But the smiting! Ah, the smiting is where I'll bet Mr. Drollinger really gets his biblical rocks off, isn't it?

You know the guy that said this:
Proof positive that Trump is not a christian by his own confession.
2 Timothy 3: But mark this: There will be terrible times in the last days. 2 People will be lovers of themselves, lovers of money, boastful, proud, abusive, disobedient to their parents, ungrateful, unholy, 3 without love, unforgiving, slanderous, without self-control, brutal, not lovers of the good, 4 treacherous, rash, conceited, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God 5 having a form of godliness but denying its power. Have nothing to do with such people.
The religious right wing are false Christians. Wolves in sheep's clothing. They want naked political power over the life of every person in this country period. And right wing fascists like Trump are their weapon.
2 Timothy 3 could have been written about Trump personally! It describes him and his damned party to a tee!
