They don't read the Bible, they just bark out the sections that support their hate.
BuckysGambit
The thing is, they read stuff like this and think they’re the exception and not with whom its addressing. Always and consistently.
juiceman
As a non-US Christian, couldn't agree more
Mooseman1991
Why would I bother raading my bible? Thas whats my preachers for!
wienerdogsftw
That should be on bilboards
apneax3n0n
You should take a look at /r/trump666 they really thing he Is the chosen One or the antichrist. Both option are scary
dealinwifscum
If the evangelicals believed in scriptures they would not be republican or trump worshipers
dudedude09
Pff evangelicals don’t give a fuck about the Bible. Never have. They’re all about power. That’s why they formed, to gain power.
Vortex153
Plus naive people never think they’re the naive

The GQP does not believe in the Bible. They believe in the "White, American-born Republican Jesus" bastardization of Christianity.

Evangelicals serve another master, $$$$$$$$. Modern Christians have very little to do with Christ, though they do invoke the name as a way to lure the unwitting.
SergeantMajorSpoiler
Quoting millennia old fairytales isn't something *anyone* should be doing to comment on contemporary societies.
mrhowser
Trump once said that he loved the uneducated.
ArkinaRunner
Yeah when he started autographing Bibles I knew none of those "Christians" were actual Christians that read the Bible in full.
hahaopossum
Any Christian who supports Trump will read this and automatically apply it to Biden and anyone supporting him. Zero chance they will look at trump

I mean, yeah

They are literally starting to say Jesus too woke. They are abandoning the actual teachings of Christ according to the Bible because it conflicts with their hatred. I can't even with these people anymore.
DukeDarkwood
If they are dropping the teachings of Christ, they should call themselves something other than Christians. As long as it's in the name, they're indicating that they support the long-haired, Middle-Eastern, socialist hippie. Until they ditch the name, we should remind them of this at every opportunity.
Targe0
They are working on replacing Jesus with Trump. Many of them act like he's the literal second coming.

Best way to create an atheist is to actually read the bible.
LiarLiarPantsUntier
“Mega Church”… I say this as an atheist - but those beasts simply defy everything Jesus taught.
zHurk777
That's The Old Testament !!! - magas who use the old testament for all sorts of stuff.
Superchief86
The bible says the words "smooth talk"?
NonstopRampage
Right?
GabrieI
17 Now I beseech you, brethren, mark them which cause divisions and offences contrary to the doctrine which ye have learned; and avoid them.
18 For they that are such serve not our Lord Jesus Christ, but their own belly; and by good words and fair speeches deceive the hearts of the simple.
NihiDae
They don't believe in that book, they want others to believe so they can hold them accountable. Cycle is as follows: Do heinous shit early, take everything you want, then impose the rules saying no one else can do what you just did.
Digitalwolf
JoshuaFalken
Except they'll take the same quote and put it on a backdrop of Biden. Dont quote scripture. Just explain all the ways Trump is a shitty person.
Mehlbox
Indeed - sound advice!
GorillaPowers
Lol Evangelicals don't give a fuck what the Bible says
doctorId
They literally think Jesus was weak
just4thelolz
Didn't think the term "smooth talk" would be in the bible. It seems such a modern expression.
DisgruntledFerret
I guess it's sort of like the Tiffany problem.

There's nothing new under the sun.

Several versions are very similar
SinStar87
Cause this is from NIV, translated in iirc the 80s, KJV says good words and is from the 1500s. Original Texts were in Greek and Hebrew.
SinStar87
Sorry, I don't like to laugh at people, but just hit me hard that you, seemingly, believe paul was going around Europe and Asia speaking modern english.
SinStar87
70s* Revised in the 80s and 10s
SinStar87
KJV is from early 1600s*
GiantFlyingLabia
They literally now decide to throw out the parts of the Bible they don’t like. This would be one of them.
OffendedSkeleton
To be fair, this has happened often for the past 2000 years.
NonstopRampage
Actual christians have an obligation to use the word Heretic when describing these people. It's their word, and they have to use it.
krylani
Whaddaya mean now? That's a tradition going back centuries.
cabalin
Many at this point have thrown out Jesus as too woke. They’ve got themselves a new Christ now
