- Former President Donald Trump is stoking fears that Christianity is under attack, a theme many Christian nationalists believe is true. CNN's Donie O'Sullivan reports from Wisconsin where the movement has united three pastors to combat what they say is a threat. #CNN #News
I'm not a religious man, but I believe deceitfully using Christianity to achieve your own ends is the ultimate evil!
It's definitely high on the list. Higher on the list is what trump will do to this country if he's elected.....Knowing that everything trump touches DIES!
@@babbs128 If Trump is re-elected he'll tank this country the way he tanked Truth Social!
Some people have some rusty screws loose in their brains.
I believe Christianity is being used deceitfully. I am a Christian and this stuff disgusts me.

they have perfected the art of using their bible as a weapon and shield at the same time.
A true Christian knows a false prophet when they hear one.
Amen!
Not if a false prophet dressed in a Halloween custom lol.
Trump is the true one. He has been chosen by God, there shall not be any doubt about that.
True Christians are part of the problem.
And a true American knows religion does not belong in our government.
The Founding Fathers deemed *ALL* religions unfit for modern, civil governance.
The *1st Amendment's Establishment Clause* prohibits the government from making any law, _“respecting an establishment of religion.”_
This clause not only forbids the government from establishing an official religion, but also prohibits government actions that unduly favor one religion over another. It also prohibits the government from unduly preferring religion over non-religion.
*Constitution Article VI Supreme Law - Clause 3 Oaths of Office*
_"The Senators and Representatives before mentioned, and the Members of the several State Legislatures, and all executive and judicial Officers, both of the United States and of the several States, shall be bound by Oath or Affirmation, to support this Constitution; _*_but no religious Test shall ever be required as a Qualification to any Office or public Trust under the United States."_*
This means nobody is ever required to swear to a god or on the Bible, or any other religious book for an oath of office. They may choose a god or religious book, but none is required.
Thomas Jefferson and Calvin Coolidge did not use a Bible in their oath-taking ceremonies. Theodore Roosevelt did not use the Bible when taking the oath in 1901, nor did John Quincy Adams, who swore on a book of law, with the intention that he was swearing on the constitution.
_"In this enlightened age and in this land of equal liberty, _*_it is our boast,_*_ that a man's religious tenets will not forfeit the protection of the laws, nor deprive him of the right of attaining and holding the highest offices that are known in the United States."_

This is a country of many religions. It was designed to be that way to avoid one sided religious control of politics.
I think it should be a country of no religions honestly I do not see anything positive that all of these cults have brought to our society.
I sure am tired of kowtowing to these people and their self-centered fantasies. Seems like the more religious they are the more they've got their head jammed down everyone else's pants and are otherwise useless freaks.
The First Amendment guarantees freedom of religion and freedom FROM religion. That's what the founding fathers intended.
Yes it’s designed so that there would be no repeat of religious persecution that went on in Europe. Catholic kings killing Protestants, Protestants killing Catholics, both killing Jews and non Christians.
Everyone whow reads the Bible knows : Deuteronomium 23:18: Never pay whores as Trump did. We all know he ends in hell.
Thank you Pastors for speaking up to this hypocrisy! These people better 🛑 Stop playing with God!

Sadly these pastors are a tiny minority of evangelical and conservative Catholic leaders, the majority are firmly with Trump.

These imposters who bring religion into politics are the worst of the worst.
Something about patriotism is the last refuge of a scoundrel…. but maybe religion is there too
Which of the [pols that you favor have refrained from using a bit of the cloth for their own benefit? Clinton? Obammy? Bidenskyy?
100% right
I wouldn't mind so much if they actually wanted us to follow Jesus's teaching about feeding the poor and welcoming the stranger.
Lookalike cnn and s the worsts
I wish more people would speak out like these men. WE NEED IT NOW! I'm a Christian and I believe my faith should be shared but not forced.
Well it still is being forced on people especially in poor countries. I know because I am from one if these countries. Heaps of conservative young Americans mostly men running around trying to convince/ bribe people to join their church. I wish our leaders would throw them out of the country.
The foundation of your faith was forced down the throats of mankind..
Trump could be the anti-Christ.
Yes following the antichrist and many will led astray.
Know what the Bible says so you will not be deceived
well trump is certainly the polar opposite of what I was told Christ was like...so...based upon his behaviour....you maybe right
I concur Allison !
I don’t think so, but he could be the Antichrists John the Baptist, leading the way, for he that comes after. Trump is way too divisive, and problematic. But someone who can take the lesson of what Trump has done, but be likable by everyone and doesn’t have the baggage. That’s one to be truly fearful of.
No, that figure was in mid 1800's when ushered in a new banner. No political figures have any real importance concerning THE MOST HIGHEST.

IRGHT ON, and Trump selling bibles is like Satán selling crosses.
Which bible are we talking about? There are several in use and many translations. And as to putting Christ (i,e 'the King) back in to the country where he belongs..... That would be Judea, right? Incidentally 'Satan' (more correctly 'The Satan' is not an individual but a functionary in the court of the Council of the Sons of God. Rather as 'The District Attorney' is a role which may be filled by different people. His function is to put the contrary case, rather as The Devil's Advocate did in mediaeval heresy trials. He is called 'The Deceiver' because he does not accept the primary case but, like council for the defence, attempts to defeat it. (Read some of the gospel statements about 'Satan' and you will see this alternative interpretation fits like a glove) The Book of Job is probably the oldest book in the Hebrew Bible and is derived from a very ancient text. It is also an early example of the way in which a nomadic people like the Jews/Israelites picked up good stories in their wanderings around the middle-east, their exiles or captivities and then adapted them. By the by, 'The Hebrew Bible' is also called 'The Old Testament'.
I will at least give kudos to that one lady who acknowledged she was wrong when she got corrected.
Yes indeed , that was very un maga of her for sure.
I was really impressed that she "got it" and was honest with herself.
when a preacher says " if you vote Democrat your not a Christian " he should provide scripture to back it up , and if sexual assault , fraud lying revenge and slander is no longer a sin he should have scripture to back it up , if trump is their example of a Christian please give us the name of your church so we don't accidentally go there , LORD open their eyes to the deception 🙏
the Catholic church spend over 300 MILLION DOLLARS in one year (you can google it), on legal fees representing clergy who sexually abused their congregants. paid for from the tax free dollars they have. just think of the worthy causes they could have donated that money to!!
Murdering children is t the top of the list. You may think the hit parade from CNN is more important but the life question is above all that. Are you alive?
That alone should remove tax-exempt status from his cult.
You honestly can't vote Democrat and call yourself a Christian. Not because Trump said so, but because it goes against core teachings of the Christian Church. Democrats support abortion, transgenderism, and homosexuality, all things that go against Christ's teachings, and so a Christian cannot in good faith vote Democrat because then they would be supporting those three anti-Christian stances. If the Democrat party were to change their views on those matters, then yes Christians could in good conscience and in line with the faith vote Democrat. Until then, it's a hard truth.
will not happen
A guy who had to shutdown his own foundation due to charity mishandling is probably the last person to be compared to Jesus.
u right, but i kinda get the feeling you look like an upside down tire
Sleeping with a porn star when your pregnant wife is at home does not sound like anything I was taught in church.
💯 😂
Trump supporters think of Trump as passionately "pro-white." In their narrow minds that makes Trump "Christ-like." It is sad to listen to them and they are beyond talking to.
Or Nelson Mandela
I am proud of these wonderful pastors from my home city, true Christians, true Americans.
NO ONE ever stopped me from praying, no matter where.
Absolute truth. Prayer is communication between the soul and God. No permission needed.

Pretty sure this country was founded because of religious persecution -which is exactly why church and state are separated.
Until the Masonic founding fathers put their spin on it.
The United States of America was not founded as a Christian country. It was founded as a freedom of religion country where any individual could worship according to their own beliefs. The constitution says that the government shall make no law respecting any religion as being better or worse.
No one has ever accused Trump’s voters of being smart or patriots.

What is under attack here is human decency! Thank you to the pastors speaking up.
Yes. Trump validates vindictiveness and violence against others in word and deed and a lot of angry working men in this country love that message.
I don't think decency includes abortion, teaching children they can switch genders, forcing injections, leaving US citizens behind in a terrorist country, stoking division through equity over equality, purchasing non recyclable "green" gadgets from China so they can use the profit to build a new coal burning plant every 10 days.

Question,how can evangelicals can vote for the most unchristian man in Trump?
Those evangelicals are FAKE CHRISTIANS. They never read the Bible and they certainly do not embody the teachings of Christ in their lives.
The bible has a justification for every inclination of the faithful and they just dig it out. I'm not making this up. From allowing slavery to murder it's all to be found in that random collection of middle-eastern ruminations that they trust.
They want power, they aren’t true Christians they are an ethnic political group using the symbols of Christianity to gain power. They want to set up a social and economic system where by Christians are at the top and not just any or all Christians either, just the white ones.
Everyone whow reads the Bible knows : Deuteronomium 23:18: Never pay whores as Trump did. We all know he ends in hell.
Look at their leaders. That tells you all you need to know.
Trump has the nerve to talk about being a Christian when he has BROKEN every 10 commandments!!!😡
Only ignorant people don't know that America was originally settled by people escaping religious persecution. Separation of church and state is fundamental to the founding of our nation as outlined in the Constitution.

Incredible, deep insight.

Are you an atheist or maga? I ask because such self-ignorant and arrogant hypocrisy is quite typical of atheists and maga.
Comparing Christ's words and ways to trump's words and ways easily reveals trump as worse than the human equivalent of a golden calf. Do you understand that? I very much doubt it.
There is a difference between judging and assessing. Do you understand that? You haven't provided any evidence or proof of understanding much yet, so when will you?
He’s not a Christian.
Baloney. Catholicism is a form of Christianity. Mr. Biden acts in a more Christian manner than Trump any day. @@ryanbailey6900
All these people have clearly not studied american history and government. If the founders wanted a christian nation, they would have made it so. But instead they separated the cristian god from the declaration of independece and constitution. Further, they gave us the right to freedom of/from religion.
To put the constitution and declaration of independence in a bible is a complete contradiction. But hey, maybe those people will finally read it and realise its not what they thought.

That's crazy. Christ at the center of the country is loving your neighbors as yourself.

People don’t see history for what it is/was. People made the pilgrimage from England because they were tired of the church’s tyranny. The King followed suit, so they left. We have the right/choice to be whatever religion, or lack thereof. Call me crazy all you want donald, I am not voting for you. Plus, I don’t vote for a party…I vote on moral standing and policy.
Freedom the Left! Cultural Marxism is the religion of the elites and the Democrats! That is a religion!
@RandyWatson-vb9pk Like liberal, Patriot, and communist, The Right has changed the meaning of words in their hate for others
The left is a religion
This was a really good interview. This woman came around to a true understanding of Gods love for everyone.
sad.
This shows that we need to invest more money in public education.
Yes, tax breaks for churches could be repurposed.
I truly believe a lack of education is one of the most dangerous and widespread issues at play.
SHOWS that school choice is important and that the tax dollars should follow the child.
What would Trump know about Christianity? He has absolutely no clue…
Could we have subtitles, please?
Humanity is always under attack by Christianity.
I’m so glad real Christian pastors are speaking out about a national religion. Look what the early church people did to Native Americans. I’m a full blood native who was stolen by church people and put in an orphanage. Because I was so young I have very little memory of who I was and where I came from. It wasn’t until I graduated high school and went to college that I even met other Indians and found my birth family. That kind of christianity is Christian nationalism and it’s wrong. They tried to make me into a white person, knowing I could never pass as one. There are good true Christian people in America but what Marjorie Taylor Greene and Trump are pushing is not true Christianity. Americans need to know the difference. Thank you pastors for what you are trying to accomplish.
Do they not know what the Treaty of Tripoli is?
Thank you for this honest, raw & eye opening report.
I am originally from England and attended church every Sunday with the family I moved to the US because I love this Country and would die for it but now I don’t go to church anymore because I am not going to be preached to about who to vote for Trump is no Jesus and never will be
My mum was born in England. She met my dad when he was serving in the military there. They had a few of us kids there, to include me. Then we moved stateside. Christianity has always been a part of my life. I don’t believe in what trump is saying and I don’t care for anyone telling me who to vote for either. I don’t consider myself crazy for not voting for a predator and cheat. 🇺🇸🏴🇺🇸🏴🇺🇸🏴
I'm a Christian you are always welcome at church (probably not Evangelical) and Trump is no Christian simply because he doesn't believe he needs to ask for forgiveness. 😮
I am a member of a Protestant congregation and there has never been any political commentary or campaigning in church. The theme for sermons are helping the needy, living with kindness and love for others. Never a divisive or a negative comment about other religious faiths.
@@gcro9206texanforeveryou attend a wonderful congregation. Most of the things mentioned typically happens in the mega churches.
You don't go to Church because you just don't want to SIMPLE!
“…says Christianity is under attack”
When you’re in league with Satan you’re not under attack.
You’re just wrong.
Says the willfully ignorant child
Your votes don't matter anymore. American citizens are NOT GOING TO DO anything you Democrat or Republican political domestic terrorists and traitors tell us to do. Nothing you can do to stop us either. Enjoy what you created!!!!

Christianity is fighting back against Trump666.
Trump is your ignorant child
ps for young people Audie Murphy was a highly decorated soldier who later starred in Westerns.
Very sad when hi see people not paying attention to what is going on in this country 😢
the issue is most pastors are not speaking up, making them complacent
... if not complicit.
@@combatepistemologist8382boom💀
The pastor at the end was spot on, and that scares me.
@combatepistemologist8382 yeah that's what I was trying to type 🤦♂️
No. They speak up. But the news is rarely interested in covering it.
Hateful idiots are more entertaining.
Plus, progressive Christians tend to also actually believe in our country's idea of separation of church and state.
Does Biden go around bragging about his faith?
No. But he's been practicing his faith for decades.
Trump is the one who is bringing his faith into politics.
Likewise, fundamentalists will preach about politics in their churches. But many progressive churches believe the church shouldn't be involved in politics.
We don't allow the American flag in our sanctuary. We are pro America, but when we enter the sanctuary we enter as children of God, not as part of any country or clan.
(Well, on July 4th, some will wear patriotic ties or red white and blue clothing...but like I said, we aren't anti America.)
The fanatics never shut up, but are so dumb they think they are being silenced. Really, it’s just that no one wants to listen to them anymore.
The individual who resides in the state of Florida has been attacking Christianity since he stepped into public office back on 20 January 2017.
I'm 67 years old. We never prayed in public school. I don't know where all this prayer in school stuff comes from.
Time out 🤔did she say Donald Trump was close to Jesus😂😂😂😂😂😂
ah, don't tease me... i wish trump was WITH jesus. bwahahahaha... what are the chances of THAT!
She honestly seemed to believe that by voting for Donald, she was voting for Jesus. That's nuts.
Well, that's kind of hard, since Chump is an Atheist.
The pulpit should never be used for politics. John the Baptist was the perfect example.
Jesus was the perfect example: "Render unto Caesar what is Caesar's and unto God what is God's." Did he stutter???
@@annakingry9157 read the preceding verses in Luke 20:1-2 and 19 to understand the context. Jesus was preaching and the Pharisees were interjecting in the hope they could catch him out and arrest him.
She never realized it.
I'm not religious, but it is amazing to see these self-claimed Christians to fall in line with Donald Trump , who never goes to church and violates Christian values all his life, vs. Biden, who appears to take his faith seriously.
He claims to be a devout catholic.Yet he twist quotes from the bible to fit his agenda.The Biden administration has been promoting the rights of lesbians, gays, bisexuals and transgenders defending and promoting sexual perversion.
I like to joke sometimes that Trump is America's first atheist president. He clearly doesn't know or care about the Bible, but evangelicals still lap up everything he says.
But 45 is suddenly selling bibles and Biden is not. You think that might mean 45 is grifting off Jesus? How dare you! /s
Most that fall in line with Trump are either Pentecostal or Evangelical or some other Born Again, Rapture Cultists.
If a church gets involved in politics they should lose their tax exempt status maybe that should be discussed in congress.
Is CNN interviewing pastors on politics ok?
Praise God an honest upright Holy Spirit filled pastor. telling his congregation exactly what they need to hear. THE TRUTH! Amen. See how he suffers for the truth. So did Christ. I'll see you on that sea like glass in heaven.
This gives me hope!
We have a place for everyone in our country, that includes the right to not believe! ♥️♥️♥️
When she walked off I wonder if she was thinking, " damn. I don't know what I'm talking about"
People in general are okay with Christians doing their Christianism thing in their own homes and churches. Freedom from religion is the best kind of religion.
They can pray anywhere they choose, they aren't requiring you to join them.
🤦🏾♀️🙏🏾
