I KNOW JESUS. JESUS IS A FRIEND OF MINE. DONALD TRUMP, YOU ARE NO JESUS.
At a White House Easter gathering this week, Donald Trump was compared to Jesus. No surprise. He routinely compares himself to Jesus.
But when Paula White, The White House faith advisor and televangelist, told Trump that: “You were betrayed and arrested and falsely accused. It’s a familiar pattern that our Lord and Savior showed us. But it didn’t end there for him, and it didn’t end there for you,” she made a blasphemous claim- and committed theological malpractice.
Only a charlatan espousing the false Gospel of white Christian nationalism would positively compare the life of Donald Trump and Jesus. Too many in evangelical circles have replaced Jesus with Trump.
Trump’s policies are inconsistent with the teachings of Jesus, rooted in racism and xenophobia. Jesus, a refugee as a child, said that how we treat the least of these - which includes refugees, asylum seekers, and immigrants - is akin to how we treat God. How will God judge us for our response to this moment of history? For Christians, the question is clear: do we stand with God or Trump?
