Bakker: Forces Of Hell Oppose Donald Trump Because He Stands For Righteousness'

Source: RightWingWatch.org

Televangelist Jim Bakker revealed on his program today that God called on him to help get Donald Trump elected president because Trump “stands for Bible reading” in public schools and says the words “Merry Christmas.”

But because “the family of God” elected Trump, Bakker said, the forces of “evil” are now fighting back.

“All hell is against this presidency,” Bakker said, because Trump stands for “righteousness.”

“Christianity cramps the style of this generation,” he added. “This generation wants to sin, mock God, kill babies, a million of them a year, and just do anything we want. They’ve decided to change marriage, the whole definition of marriage. I’ve got news for you: It still takes a man and a woman to make a baby.”

read this interview from Democracy Now.

read this one excerpt:

DAVID CAY JOHNSTON: I did not appreciate, until I worked on the book, that while Donald holds himself out as a devout Christian—"No one reads the Bible more than me"—while he has all these pastors embracing him as a good Christian man, Donald aggressively, thoroughly and at great length, in many forums, denounces Christianity. His personal motto is "always get revenge," whereas the message of Jesus Christ was "turn the other cheek." And these ministers, some of whom I’ve written to and haven’t—they haven’t responded at all—continue to embrace him

by sexual misconduct? I'd say that is their belief, that it is righteous when they or one of their cronies do it.

Maybe it is the hypocrisy that makes it righteous, you know, the whole saying one thing while doing precisely the opposite!

Trump perfectly fits the description of the Antichrist in the book of Revelations right down to the building on 666 5th Avenue and the unclean spirits like frogs.

C'mon guys. You have choose: either admit that Revelations is a bunch of superstitious claptrap, or that Trump's the Evil One.

Why? Because apparently, his Olympic exploits in the "Floozie Jacuzzi" weren't limited to just women.

Now, he's all "Love the Sinner, hate the sin", "One Man, One Woman????

What I find bizarre about Jim's current shtick is that during his heyday, he was NEVER the batshit End-Times Revelation Prepper he is now. He was more a goodness and light, "Name it and Claim it" guy . . . not so much "Hellfire and brimstone". Did he just catch the Hal Lindsey nutter bug along the way?

Apparently he thinks he's relevant again even though way more people voted for someone other than "it".

He's a stupid as he ever was.
