Roland Martin: Donald Trump Is A Fake Christian | MSNBC
A man is known by his fruit..
,@Laura Bedford Evidently you haven’t seen updates. There are perfectly good people coordinating this battle against the virus. You think just one or two people are tackling this problem?
@barb rarick
There are 613 of God’s laws in the bible. Slavery and the beating of slaves nearly to death was moral. Exodus 21:20.
And Jesus endorsed all these laws in Matthew 5:17-18.
Neither Jesus or God are moral concepts to be admired.
. How many preschoolers has Hillary fed to Soros in the catacombs underneath his serpent lair of toddler bones in the last 3 decades from her child peddling syndicate of milk Carton kids?
I always thought there was something off about Don Jr. And Eric.
While #WonderfullyHungry, I share the thought that many of my fellow evangelical Christians have essentially been “transactional” in engaging in a #QuidProQuo with #DonaldTrump –> “We’ll pray&vote for you, but we would like you to do us a favor, though.” Instead of seeking GOD’s face (2 Chronicles 7;14) so that He’d heal our land, they’ve made a terrible deal with #ImPOTUS45 with terrible consequences for our country.
He’s a fake EVERYTHING!! There is not one Christian bone in that evil body!
Laura Bedford the same thing , are you Trump conscience to tell the he is Just doing for himself. I’m not a fan or voters of Trump but I cannot tell what he is. Coz I’m not him. Anyway try travel the world if have a president that perfect enough Just only for people. All You can find hate for their president. At least Trump done a little good thing for his people have job for some and protect his people.
@Tom Riggle The same god whose followers include child rapists and their protectors, US evangelists, and who sits idly by while chidren die slowly of cancers he gave them?
THAT got has no right to judge anybody.
Forest trump the womanizer!
Drumpf may not be the Anti-Christ..(debatable) , But Jesus Christ is Definitely the ANTI Drumpf!
@MrWisdomseekr and there’s the tell… you see no difference between countries cause you live in some unrealistic utopia. Bet you are one of these “free” healthcare and college for everyone too. You have no concept of reality
@Francis Godinho That’s what I said. The AntiChrist Trump will be President until Jesus defeats him.
@ph 88 YES LOL You’ve got It!!! I see no difference between countries because I am a Christian and the CHURCH is ONE! Good job!!!
@MrWisdomseekr this isn’t heaven yet dude, not everyone here is in the same church… in fact I hear the rival church gives out 72 virgins for killing one of us
I like the part where the so-called evangelicals worship a guy who has never gone to church or believes in any of their values. 😄😆🤣
@Merrilou Neigenfind How about just tube tie all the Pro Killers.
@James Jacquot Gun owners, pro life wing nuts or people who just want to control women?
“Of all the Tyrannies that Affects Mankind, Tyranny in Religion is the Worst.” Thomas Paine, “The Age of Reason.”
@Wayne Drake Hey give me something from Jesus on that bro. You rocking the Old Testament. Good luck cause you wont find it. My argument can not be broken. You have lost. Peace and God Bless you.
Wayne Drake. Where in America there is tyranny under President Trump? He just signed peace with Tyrant Taliban who have been killing in the name of Islam. What Thomas Paine has to do with Trump as President???
@James Jacquot According to the Bible, life does not begin and end with your heartbeat or brainwaves. The Bible states that life enters and leaves the body through your breath. In with your first breath, out with your last. This is such an important theological question to an ancient society that it’s laid out in their very first book…
“And the Lord God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living soul.” (Genesis 2:7)
Breath is life. When life is breathed into the earthen vessel that is a human body, it comes alive. “A living soul” as the King James Version gives it. Talking about souls here can be problematic, so let’s just talk about life. There’s a lot of earthen vessel allusions in the Bible, calling God the potter, that forms clay vessels (our bodies) into which God places our souls…
“By the word of the LORD the heavens were made, And by the breath of His mouth all their host.” (Psalms 33:6)
That first breath is when the soul enters the body, when an earthen vessel becomes alive. So we know, pretty clearly, that life is breath. From dust ye came, to dust ye shall return, as it is breath and the presence of Spirit of God within breath that makes us live.
The Bible also contains an ancient ritual which involves forcing a woman accused of adultery to drink “bitter water” designed to cause abortion of the fetus…
“And when he hath made her to drink the water, then it shall come to pass, that, if she be defiled, and have done trespass against her husband, that the water that causeth the curse shall enter into her, and become bitter, and her belly shall swell, and her thigh shall rot: and the woman shall be a curse among her people. And if the woman be not defiled, but be clean; then she shall be free, and shall conceive seed. This is the law of jealousies, when a wife goeth aside to another instead of her husband, and is defiled” (Numbers 5:27-29)
The Biblical principle of justice is “an eye for an eye and a tooth for tooth.” But what happens if a man causes a woman to lose her fetus?…
“If men strive, and hurt a woman with child, so that her fruit depart from her, and yet no mischief follow: he shall be surely punished, according as the woman’s husband will lay upon him; and he shall pay as the judges determine. And if any mischief follow, then thou shalt give life for life, Eye for eye, tooth for tooth, hand for hand, foot for foot, Burning for burning, wound for wound, stripe for stripe..” (Exodus 21:22-25)
The justice for causing abortion of the fetus is a fine of property damage, to be paid to the woman’s husband. Why property damage? Because a fetus doesn’t become a human life until it has breathed, according to the Bible. But if the woman is injured, or dies in the process, then justice calls for injury or death of equal measure, an eye for an eye, according to the ancient law. It can be said with absolute certainty that ancient scripture does not consider the unborn to be a human life, because it has not yet drawn breath.
Anyone who calls themselves “Christian” would not say “abortion is murder” for that would make them LIARS and they would be elevating themselves ABOVE God!…
“All liars shall have their part in the lake which burneth with fire” – (Revelation 21:8)
.
Corporate Tyrannies would not be far behind…

I’m a great Christian, the very, very best. No one’s a better Christian than me, believe me. Ask my two Corinthians.
Your Fake News.
That’s funny!
@NoFriendZ JustAname Apparently you are not very smart. Paige Peters comment was spot on. A Christian is one that follows the precepts of Christ laid down in his doctrine of which the apostle Paul wrote. Romans 3:27,31 Where is boasting then? It is excluded. By what law is boasting excluded by the law of works (OT Mosaic law)? No. By the law of faith. Do we make void the law (the law of God) through faith? God forbid. We establish the law (nullifying the law of Moses and establishing the law of righteousness through faith in the righteous one JC). So if you had any knowledge at all about scripture of which you are commenting on then you would know that boasting of one’s self is a sin against God as you elevate yourself more highly than is appropriate. With faith in Christ, according to scripture that defines faith, all boasting or praise should go to God not ones self. If a person has great accomplishments it is due to the gift God has given them and thus God not his self should be given credit/praised. Of course I get your point that you do not believe in Christianity. But that is irrelevant since the subject is what a Christian is, not whether Christianity is real in your eyes. Of course consummate lying and cursing is also anti Christian which such works/actions prove you are not a Christian. Stop showing your ignorance by commenting on something you know nothing about..
Zed Cartwright , hahahaha!! Yes, to boast in anything other than our weakness that is made strong in Christ would be wrong. But Alice’s Rabbit is quoting Trump, so if Paige is affirming that Trump is boasting, then, yes, you all are correct. And it all confirms what this video is about, that Trump is a fake Christian. And if you didn’t know that Trump had said those things, now you know and can understand where the lol’s are coming from
Trump’s relationship with conservative evangelicals is basically a quid pro quo. They know that Trump is essentially the anti-christ, but they didn’t care. They promised to support him anyway, just as long as he promised to give them the things they wanted. It is an unholy and diabolical agreement born and sealed in he//.
Trump:
“Please allow me to introduce myself
I’m a man of wealth and no taste
I’ve been around for a long, long year
Stole many a man’s soul to waste
Pleased to meet you
Hope you guess my name,
But what’s puzzling you
Is the nature of my game.
Just as every cop is a criminal
And all the sinners saints,
As heads is tails
Just call me Donald,
‘Cause I’m in need of some restraint.
Pleased to meet you
Hope you guessed my name,
But what’s confusing you
Is just the nature of my game.”
David J. Spot on!
@Diana Davis That’s not an insult. That is an acknowledgment that the Stones got it right, first.
@Fred A I was joking. That’s why there’s a smiling face
David J. one thing you who hate Trump cannot deny. He gave Jerusalem & Golden Height back to Jews.
So are every single one of his supporters 🤷
Oh, also it seems evangelicals believe in Trump’s lies?
‘WHITE CHRISTIAN NATIONALISM’ . . . R. Martin
Right On Roland . . .
Roland is a fan of Farrakhan and a known antisemite racist.
@Seth Andrews I’m a fan of Farrakhan, myself. Man never caused any white person to be killed.
@Anubis Well said and I concur!
Finally, someone other than me outing the Fake Christians. We need more of this.
stillbreathing37 be careful with that unless you like extreme heat
Almost every US politician is a fake Christian.
@Pam Ronning bullcrap! You better get your head on straight and think about Heaven later!
Steven Williams well I won’t be seeing you thank you Jesus.
When I read anything on the subject of god, I simply add an extra “o”. “In Good we trust”. “Good helps those who help themselves”. Try it. It obliterates any tribalism, any religious dogma and levels the playing field to allow ANYone the flexibility to support the Common Good. Works for me.
The word God came from the word Good over time. Ancient people looked up and saw the sun and said that’s good>gud>gad then >God. Different accents formed that word into God overtime.
Just Me , I really really like that . I’m in A.A. and this helps me with the whole Higher Power issue. Thank you for posting
Nah… God is much better
Believing in good is good. 🌝🌸🌻🌼🌱
Just voted early in NORTH CAROLINA for BERNIE SANDERS.. GO BERNIE FEEL THE BERN..
@Everything Matters your welcome
@NoFriendZ JustAname BERNIE BERNIE BERNIE!!! 🙂
Me too!!
@Wildboy789789 Good luck, but odds are against you. And I refuse to vote period. XD
Thank you Mr. Martin. God bless you. Of course he’s transparent to real Christians.
There are no “real” christians. If there were there wouldn’t be homeless and starving in the nation. Over 100 billion goes into the hands of the churches every year, yet they do nothing but get richer, build more locations, expand their “ministry” to make even more money off the poor of the world. Religion should be banned, then we can solve some real problems.
@no name Christians have done more for the poor than ANYONE else in the entire history of mankind. So before you go on pretending to know what you’re talking about, read the Bible. Ugh, the ignorance in here.
Trump gave it away when he said “Corinthians Two”. Martin is spot on.
This is really not a controversial statement in any way.
Roland Martin is only saying what everybody already knows *in their hearts.*
Donald Trump is *basic egotistical evil* incarnate.
If you call yourself a follower of Jesus Christ, yet support a man like Trump, then your entire life is a fraud.
@Monkey D. Luffy It should be obvious. Only one candidate is talking about actually being *willing to help* someone you don’t personally know.
Care and respect for your fellow human beings… Being a good samaritan… Doing unto others as you would have them do onto you…
*_Mathew 25.40 ‘Truly I tell you, whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers and sisters of mine, you did for me.’_*
griiseknoen beautiful words of sparkling truth!
BERNIE JESUS SANDERS
It just became so clear to me!
Love&blessings
griiseknoen My point exactly. People confuse religion with Christianity. Not the same thing at all. I also wish nonbelievers would not talk about who and what Chist is or is not. They don’t know Him so shut up, please.
griisekneon lights shine in the dark. In November vote for Joe Biden who will send you to China to collect $1.5 billion cash. Then to Ukraine to collect monthly $85’000. You get 8% brokerage commission, the buy two homes in Martha’s vineyard close to Obama.
@Glenys Thomson It seems most people are unaware that the Bible they devote their lives to has been re-written, condensed, chapters truncated or eliminated, mis-translated, and corrupted through the years by monks/priests who thought their opinions were more important than the original authors. If someone is going to devote their life to a single book, at least they should know what that book is, or more appropriately, what that book has become.
5:30 Correct, we should call this what it is: WHITE christian nationalism
“The President of the United States” —- The title brings more to Donald Trump than he brings to the title.
Agreed
Wesley C. 64 million voted Trump in 2016 to make him the President of The United States. He did steal the White House from Obama or from Hillary Clinton. What is wrong with that? What have the 64 million Americans done wrong??? Who are you?
@Francis Godinho Ya 64 million were wrong for voting for this disgrace of a man. Including YOU
@Francis Godinho he’s an absolute embarrassment of an attempt of a dictator. The moron can’t even dress right!
Truer words “white Christian nationalism” which is so anti-Christ in so many ways
orange Christian nationalism
Stacy Salles……So true.. Trumpturd the false profit.
Truth
Well ya! because Jesus would have been a POC. But evangelical crackpots had to go whitey Jesus all up in “their image”. Depicting Jesus doing crazy white people things, like Jesus riding on a dinosaur 👍🏻, to prove the earth is only 6, 000 years old like the Bible says , Jesus posing with an AR-15 demonstrating that assault weapons are a God given right! (>ლ) seems like any Jesus worth his salt would have smite off the heads of the evangelicals by now. If he wasn’t a biblical fairy tale.
Ok so I was whit by birth. I am a Christian by faith. And the meaning of Nationalism – Nationalism is an ideology and movement that promotes the interests of a particular nation especially with the aim of gaining and maintaining the nation’s sovereignty over its homeland.
Am I a bad person? Should I be pro Mexico and not USA? Should I go get pigment color injected into my skin or stay in the sun for long periods to get a dark tan? I think this country has gone fruit loops.
