A cumulative Pentecostal involvement in Donald Trump’s presidency: Prophetic WARNINGS vs Prophetic WORDS
By now, most of my readers will have heard that Donald Trump yesterday expressed preference for Norwegian immigrants over Haitian and African immigrants. The original report came from Josh Dawsey. When discussing immigrants from El Salvador, Haiti and Africa, Trump reportedly said, “Why are we having all these people…?” According to Reuters, he then said we should take more immigrants from Norway. Sen. Tim Scott told the Charleston Post and Courier Friday that Sen. Lindsay Graham, also a South Carolina Republican, had been in the meeting and told him reports about Trump’s language were “basically accurate.”

Grover Katzmarek Sr Troy Day just loves to use liberal news sources. It’s really sad!
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/HuffPost
Varnel Watson
Ira Huth Are you saying Dr. Micheal Brown, Dr. Samuel Rodriguez and Dr. Tim Hill are liberal news sources too?
Ira Huth
I’m saying HuffPost is a liberal news source, read the link above.
Varnel Watson
Ira Please read the actual article before being judgmental again http://www.pentecostaltheology.com/new-2018-warnings-by-spiritual-and-denominational-leaders-on-the-pentecostal-involvement-in-donald-trumps-presidency/
Ira Huth
That’s OK I’m not wasting my time with your rhetoric. I’m just going to send some gold to the First Baptist Church in Dallas for the statute of Trump. It’s so sad!!

Joseph D. Absher Just like the so called “gold dust from angels wings” people believe just whatever so they can justify doing whatever. There were so many of this so called Trump prophecies people failed for that it was impossible to count them all Now more and more words are coming to sober the church from its recent political erring
Joseph D. Absher
I saw a good quote today by none other than Winston Churchill his self. If you’re not a liberal in you twenties you have no heart. If you’re not a conservative in your forties you have no brain.
Varnel Watson
39 Pentecostal ministers and scholars have sent President Trump an open letter to repent and change his ways…
Joseph D. Absher
The failure is in the pulpit. If people. God’s people would learn to pray and seek God and wait on God. Get under the blood of Christ and hear from God they wouldn’t need a bunch hocky prophetic word. The glory of Jesus Christ and his cross is that even a babe in Christ can hear from God.
Jim Price
In many ways Pres., Trump approaches truth in the same way that many pentecostals do.that is ; ” you create your own reality.” I suggest that you listen carefully next time you are in the presence of either a layman or a preacher Ask yourself; has this person created their personal understanding of what’s real?
Jim Price
I don’t think that making one’s own reality is biblical or desirable its just that for too many do so.
Varnel Watson
You are correct lots of people in the pulpit stand there and say things irresponsibly. They should not mimic the ways of the President. Our words as ministers are before God and are held to the highest of all standards
Varnel Watson
Jim I disagree that we shape our own reality. Perceptions maybe but not reality Only God can create and shape reality. We simply live walk and operate in God’s reality Acts 17. Now , it is our responsibility to remain in God’s reality responsibly or else…
Joseph D. Absher
Self deception is not limited to the pulpit lol
Varnel Watson
but mass deception of churches starts in the pulpit
Varnel Watson
not sure if you mentioned this in your book William DeArteaga
William DeArteaga
Thank you. I will try to fit it in, Thanks again
Varnel Watson
William DeArteaga this too but I think you mentioned it Still good for the appendix I think http://www.pentecostaltheology.com/open-letter-to-u-s-president-trump-concerning-jerusalem-from-patriarchs-and-heads-of-churches-in-jerusalem/
William DeArteaga
Thanks again
William DeArteaga
I don’t want to get into the Jeusalem controversy, I am ambigious about it.
Varnel Watson
William DeArteaga oops wrong link I guess TOO many letters here is the right link to the right letter http://www.pentecostaltheology.com/pentecostal-pastors-and-scholars-to-president-trump-we-call-on-you-to-repent/
William DeArteaga
Thanks,

Well it’s either Trump or Joe Biden that’s having mental problems and who is going along with the radical left in promoting Marxism. And if you’ve read, The Communist Manifesto by Karl Marx you will notice that they don’t have any use for religion.
Varnel Watson
Nope – it is not either or That’s the issue
Harry Jones
These 18 leaders are probably the ones that don’t have any use for Pentecostalism either ?.
Varnel Watson
well from the name of it sure looks like major leaders Also this article was 2018 Plenty more spoke out since than Hundreds if not in the thousands PLUS these NO small time scholars some of which Doyle Rogers may know personally http://www.pentecostaltheology.com/pentecostal-pastors-and-scholars-to-president-trump-we-call-on-you-to-repent/?fbclid=IwAR3WTFgRGMsa2fwAX4yCr7YAQiOryhTA4XB8tBLynUz8oR8AQqE9vAzgXK0
Pentecostal pastors and scholars to President Trump: We call on you to repent!
