The Seven Deadly Sins And Trump.....

Did you ever realize how Trump personifies the Seven Deadly Sins?

Lust – to have an intense desire or need: “But I tell you that anyone who looks at a woman lustfully has already committed adultery with her in his heart” (Matthew 5:28).

Gluttony – excess in eating and drinking: “for drunkards and gluttons become poor, and drowsiness clothes them in rags” (Proverbs 23:21).

Greed - excessive or reprehensible acquisitiveness: “Having lost all sensitivity, they have given themselves over to sensuality so as to indulge in every kind of impurity, with a continual lust for more” (Ephesians 4:19).

Laziness – disinclined to activity or exertion: not energetic or vigorous: “The way of the sluggard is blocked with thorns, but the path of the upright is a highway” (Proverbs 15:19).

Wrath – strong vengeful anger or indignation: “A gentle answer turns away wrath, but a harsh word stirs up anger” (Proverbs 15:1)

Envy – painful or resentful awareness of an advantage enjoyed by another joined with a desire to possess the same advantage: “Therefore, rid yourselves of all malice and all deceit, hypocrisy, envy, and slander of every kind. Like newborn babies, crave pure spiritual milk, so that by it you may grow up in your salvation” (1 Peter 2:1-2).

Pride - quality or state of being proud – inordinate self esteem: “Pride goes before destruction, a haughty spirit before
a fall” (Proverbs 16:18).


We watched the movie Shazam yesterday and this is what came to mind and prompted me to post this.

If I were more computer literate I would search for pictures of Trump that illustrate Trump's affinity to the Seven Deadly Sins. If anyone is handy at fusing these 7 Deadly Sins with pics of Trump here are some examples. Please take a whack at it and post them in this thread.

Some suggestions that come to mind:

Lust = from pussy grabbing to hush money payments to assaults to rape

Gluttony = his KFC/McDonald's eating habits

Greed = countless examples of pics of Trump and greed

Laziness = a fat Trump on a golf cart

Wrath = Trump hitting back at anyone that criticizes him

Envy = Trump's envy of Obama

Pride= Trump calling himself the 'best president ever; genius; etc

“There are six things the Lord hates, seven that are detestable to him: haughty eyes, a lying tongue, hands that shed innocent blood, a heart that devises wicked schemes, feet that are quick to rush into evil, a false witness who pours out lies and a man who stirs up dissension among brothers” (Proverbs 6:16-19).
