Pastor Robert Jeffress says Trump understands the Bible more than the Pope
Pastor Robert Jeffress said, "It looks like President Trump has a better understanding of what the Bible teaches than the Pope." Jeffress delivered a blessing at the U.S. embassy opening in Jerusalem and praised Trump’s "determination and courage" in moving the embassy from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem. Senator Mitt Romney called Jeffress "a religious bigot." The exchange matters because it exposes sharp religious divisions between influential evangelical leaders and the Catholic Church and could complicate domestic political alliances around U.S. policy on Israel.
Pastor Robert Jeffress: "It looks like President Trump has a better understanding of what the Bible teaches than the Pope"
MAGA is a cult. Obviously.
Dear Pastor Jeffries, the Bible says thou shalt have no gods before me. What's up with that golden statue of trump?
Yeah I suppose technically he teaches the Bible He's kind of a guy of who not to be For example the seven deadly sins How many "Christians" would literally teach their children to be like Donald Trump?
A pastor who has spent years stumping for Trump, speaking at rallies, blessing campaigns shouldn’t be lecturing the Pope about "separate roles" of church and state. If you want to be a full‑time political operative, fine, but then stop hiding behind tax‑exempt "ministry" status while you do it.
Robert James Jeffress Jr. is an American Southern Baptist pastor, author, radio host, and televangelist. He is the senior pastor of the 14,000-member First Baptist Church, a megachurch in Dallas, Texas, and is a Fox News Contributor. In other words, Robert James Jeffress business is show business.
Weird because Trump couldn’t name one bible verse.
Trump wasn't the first grifter using the cloak of Christianity. Think about all the evangelical pastors in their multi-million homes. They may not be literal golden calfs but you'd have to be willfully blind not to see the idolatry and excess permeating this feeble excuse of a religion
Introducing "Pastor" Robert Jeffress. Who is currently working to knock out the power, authority and reputation of the Pope. For the benefit of the Republican Political Party.
Pastor Jeffress has a better understanding about how to use religion to enrich himself than Pope Leo. He is the typical MAGA religious imposter.
They all have the pedophile eyes.
Wonder why younger people aren't religious?
His congregation should all leave his church because of this.
Evangelical in the US have become nothing more than heretics
Don Jr and Kushner met with Russia to ask for Putin to help Trump win an election by accusing Hillary of " emails " which they asked russia to hack 2019 Trump extorted Zelensky for dirt on the Bidens. 2024 election has not been investigated
Sure “pastor”. Just like Trump has a better understanding of medicine than all the doctors. Trump has a better understanding of war than all the generals. Trump has a better understanding of economics than Jerome Powell. If you’re a maggot.
I'm an eclectic heathen and I understand more about the Bible than everyone in this administration.
As an atheist, I really hope that an afterlife exists, all so people like this can exist for eternity knowing they sold their souls for such a cheap price
This is the actual trump derangement syndrome
Even the Baptist News calls Pastor Jeffries a hypocrite of the Lowest order baptistnews.com/article/jeff...
Everyone on the planet knows that there was a deal in place with Iran. We created gov't to protect people against fake Christian evil doers like you, only attempting to profit from exploiting religion. Trump doesn't know anything about the Bible. Trump, Netanyahu and Putin should be in prison.
Well, that preacher man is nuts.
Thou shall not bear false witness (lies more than he tells the truth) Thou shall not steal (stealing money from taxpayers, a cancer charity, and plenty of scams) Thou shall not commit adultery (many times) Thou shall not kill (god would know who ordered the bombing of the school) Oh and he’s a pedo
100% utter 🐎💩. trump doesn't know his butt from third base, much less what the Bible says about anything.
You stupid man, you stupid, stupid man.
Fox News aids the Republican Political Party's mission to knock out the authority, power and reputation of the Pope.
Funny how these “pastors” only believe government was created by God when Republicans are in the White House.
Let's have a theological debate between the Pope and Trump then. They are allowed to bring their favourite copy of the Bible and quote from it. Should be an easy task for such a knowledgeable Bible scholar as Trump is claimed to be.
Witnessing the decline of the Southern Baptist Church has been painful to watch.
Lol lol lol lol lol “But it’s not a cult, guys”
All I need to know about this clown is how he pronounces Iran EYE Ran 🙄
Oh yes Trump has broken 8 of the 10 commandments Asking the enemy to help him win an election against Hillary. By hacking her emails
Exodus 20:23: "You shall not make gods of silver to be with me, nor shall you make for yourselves gods of gold"
Sir, that might be the dumbest thing you have ever said. I am not going to check on that because I don't want to embarrass you further. I will say that at least Leo has read it. To be fair, it's hard to read a book when it keeps catching fire in your hands.
Okay Paster Bob how about you get Grandpa out and have him quote his favorite scripture to you? You can even give him a Bible. I dare you Bobby.
Ignorant! If you’ve read Revelations, the guy sure looks like the Antichrist .
Evidently Robert Jeffress has no understanding of what the Bible teaches
It’s a cult. Mr. Two Corinthians knows more about the bible than the actual pope? Anyone saying this is insane.
The Biblical and dictionary definition of a demon is: A Malevolent Being. ~ Here you are able to see a demon posing as a Pastor.
The hairs on the back of my neck go up whenever I see or hear religious folk who have a personal relationship w god. What makes them superior to the rest of us? The con is strong in this one. Send donations to my PO Box. And he lives tax free!!
This fuckface Deputy Doodog used to be my pastor in Wichita Falls. He’s a lover of money.
such bullshit. Everything out of their mouths is bullshit.
Trump could not (without help) name the 10 commandments or which disciples were with Jesus at the last supper Maybe a journalist should ask Trump what the key principles that Jesus taught
As I have noted more than once these far right evangelical protestant pastors believe that the Pope is the antichrist. That's why I get a kick out of the many RCs I know who are MAGAs.
Please, lead me the way back to earth one. Earth two is f*cking nutz. I’ll even try earth three, though I think the tech nazis are already there setting up base.
It looks like a rock has a better understanding of the Sermon on the Mount than Pastor Robert Jeffress.
unbefkingleavable how the Epstein class & pedo protectors genuinely are divorced from reality
Going to say that comment guarantees Jeffress is going to hell. Not my opinion, it’s one of his chosen religion’s rules.
Psycho carrying on the work of Jerry Falwell creating the American Christian right. Normal Christians see this behavior for what it is.
These TV “preachers” are into $$$$$ PERIOD
Pastor Robert Jeffress saying Trump understands the Bible better than the Pope is like saying a casino buffet understands nutrition better than a cardiologist. Bold strategy. Extremely on-brand for the End Times Cinematic Universe. - Spes Semper #EndTimesCinematicUniverse #ThouShaltFactCheck
Only an extremely stupid person would say this out loud.
This Pasture (not a typo; you know what is found in one, right! 😁) is full of it!
He is lying so hard 🥴
Oh yes 2024 was "genocide Kamala and Genocide Joe" Russian and Israeli campaigns to help Trump win on Meta products. But not Trump who now is fundibg Israel to kill in 3 countries. Iran, Lebanon, and Gaza. Us now implicated in the genocide. But silence of accusers
Is this guy who claims the gold painted statue of Trump isn’t a golden calf?
This “pastor” didn’t know the bible and the 10 commandments!
Where's a lightning bolt when you need it?
STOP THIS INSANITY! He’s been to church for two of his weddings!
It is astounding that we have so many fucking idiots and that the Fox people are determined to put them all on television.
Said by someone with no understanding of it. This guy was internet ordained.
Who's bible is he talking about?
Yeah, because JEFFRESS is the authority on understanding the Bible. 😂😂😂
Trump is a shining example of the "Thou shalt nots". Lots of practice.
If I believed in Hell, I'd be really worried about these people.
Yes, yes he does…just as much as Jeffress does.
Which Bible are we talkin' about. Certainly not the one with the ten commandments...
I have a strong feeling Pastor Jeffress will be together with the President in the afterlife, but it won’t be at the Pearly Gates.
In a 2010 televised sermon, Jeffress called the Catholic Church an "instrument of Satan" and a "counterfeit religion." He argued that the Catholic Church "appropriates all of the symbols of true biblical Christianity" but changes them enough to "cause people to miss eternal life."
It’s sheer arrogance. Actually one of the biggest sins. They really don’t understand their place with regards to Life, the Universe and Everything.
Someone needs to go back to seminary!
As a non religious person:
Looking forward to the day decent Christians shame these people back into the shadows.
His comments are hardly surprising. www.peoplefor.org/rightwingwat...
Pope doesn’t teach the gospel. He speaks it.
I would pay to watch the Chicago Pope get into theological debate with Pastor Pedophile.
Not really a surprise. Evangelical god botherers believe that the Pope is the Anti-christ.
Where's the requisite bolt of lightning? If this blasphemic lie doesn't warrant it, what fkn does?
Sick of this 2 bit cult
Right, and I have a better understanding of quantum physics than Stephen Hawking.
Oh ffs…. Seriously? And with a straight face.
I mean....it's just all so pathetically stupid. Too many people believe what comes out of these televangelist fraudster's mouth. And send them money. Crikey. The work it's going to take to get our country back is going to take years.
"Consequently, whoever rebels against the authority is rebelling against what God has instituted, and those who do so will bring judgment on themselves."ROMANS 13:2 These folks better start taking back a lot of things they said about Biden, Harris, Obama, et al.
So many Republican pastors are pedophiles so nope lol @whitehouse-47.bsky.social
He said that with a straight face
Here’s Trump demonstrating that understanding by saying the Bible is “very special” and declining to name his favorite verses. youtu.be/ERUngQUCsyE?...
You should have the Pastor designation taken away with a statement like that.
Juas, no he has not
The way these ppl are selling their souls in real time is crazy!
No, and apparently neither does this so-called “pastor”.
Truman said show me a rich politician I'll show you a crook. Show me a pastor worth $17 M and I will show you a crook behind the pulpit
For the past 30 years, people have been saying that Iran was weeks away from having a nuclear weapon. It's total bullshit. They all know it. They all keep saying it, & MAGAturds everywhere I wanna believe it
What, the actual, fuck? If this is your pastor, I don’t care your politics; this should embarrass you. And if it’s not your pastor but you consider yourself religious, this should embarrass you.
Trump reads like a slow 7 year old. With less understanding.
I attended a Baptist Church when I was a kid. These people were extreme at that church. Half the mass mass was you’re going to burn in hell if you don’t come up to the alter and save your soul. I did it, but then realized these people are nuts, & God wouldn’t be vindictive like they said & left.
Bible Trivia Contest, and the loser resigns from office.
The question is why they ever gave people like Robert Jeffress one second of air time.
Robert Jeffress, the senior pastor of the 16,000-member First Baptist Dallas megachurch, has faced several controversies and scandals, primarily involving his political advocacy, polarizing public statements, and recent allegations of negligence concerning sexual abuse within his church.
The Bible teaches us not to lie... and I don't understand how Jeffress can live with himself knowing he lies so often about 47.
"the role of government is to protect citizens from evil doers, according to Romans 13" it doesn't say that and says nothing about external enemies It says people in a nation should obey their God appointed rulers and the evil people who don't obey will be punished.
In Trump’s world he teaches us that corruption, lying, racism, homophobia, hatred of most people - these are all virtues. In the Pope’s … well you get the picture. Though apparently this pastor doesn’t.
Hes not a pastor !
Introducing "Pastor" Robert Jeffress. Who is currently working to knock out the power, authority and reputation of the Pope. For the benefit of the Republican Political Party.
Nothing better ‘n a good ole Southern Fundamentalist nitwit to be interviewed on State TV. 🙄😂😂😂
He’s gonna have an uphill climb. And eventually a really rocky road downhill. Jeffress apparently thinks there are a lots of Southern Baptists behind him. He has no idea how many Catholics stand behind Leo. Millions including non-practicing Catholics like myself! Never liked Jeffress and never will.
Oh but, believe me when I say a church as old as the Catholic Church, its history, art, did I mention history? Will prevail. Hitler tried to kill it in WW2 and failed to do so. Robert Jeffries will have similar luck. Only Jeffries will become toxic, just like all Trump supporters do.
