Almost all antichrists can quote scripture and are smooth talkers. This is nothing new.

Yes, the real followers of Christ befriend pedophiles, assaulted women, cheated on their wives, and openly profess 'hate' for their opponents. But Talarico is the one we should watch out for!

---

Indeed, real followers of Christ do befriend sinnners. As we all are. Guilty as charged.

---

And do real followers assault women, cheat on their wives, and profess hate too?

---

They can, yes. Sometimes they are even guilty of murder.

I think people that protect pedofiles are more evil. Call me old fashioned.

The pedophile is worse (democrats)

Which one? How about this one? This is the newest one. Robert Morris. Of course he only got 6 months. Where's the outrage? He was actually on Donald Trump's evangelical advisory board.

Keep asking and I will keep posting a new one. Not to mention Grinder gets shut down every time a Republican event comes to town because there so much action on the site.

This guy reminds me of Obama. I dunno but just listening to him gives me that vibe

Wait, so you don't think it's a sin (a stain on your soul) but you shouldn't do it...? Like wearing white after labor day?

But those people don't claim to be Bible teachers. Are you a Christian? If so, I'm sure you're familiar with the verses I posted earlier. False teaching has dire consequences now and far beyond this world. Why not just admit that Talarico has values that are not biblical but that you're okay with that? I do that for people I vote for. But you also have to admit that the seminary thing is peculiar and opens him up to increased levels of scrutiny and possible judgement.

If you're not Christian, stop trying to be a conscience for believers.

---

I'm simply using a mirror on people here who decry Talarico (by almost any account is a decent man) but support a literal women abusing, serial adulterer who sold bibles with is own name on them for political gain. I'm living in looney town when the same people who are actually accusing Talarico of being the ****ing antichrist while handwaving Donald effing Trump.

---

Did you understand any of my post? Do you understand why a Christian (are you one?) might have a problem with an abortion-supporting politician? Do you understand the danger of a false teacher?

If you're not Christian, please just say so. No need for me to waste my time trying to explain that which you won't get if you're not one.

And I think the way Donald Trump has treated his marriages is abhorrent. But I'll take him over Talarico any day of the week. A false teacher who supports killing babies is way more dangerous than an adulterer.

LOL, Trump is not attempting to use the Bible to say the opposite of what it says. He is very flawed and you won't get a lot of people to disagree with that. Talarico is straight up lying about what the Bible says in order to win office.

---

I'm losing my mind. Trump uses Christianity as a prop, just like everything else. He only believes in himself. Two Corinthians and gassing protesters at a church for a photo op was the clue and people missed it. I mean, the man has said he's never asked for forgiveness because he hasn't done anything wrong and ' I don't bring God into that picture '. And only after saying that (after consulting his advisers) did he try to assuage his base by saying 'well that's what communion is for.'

He conned Christians into believing he was one. He has shown his ass on how serious he treats his faith in both his behavior and knowledge of scripture throughout his adult lifetime but wielded it's power anytime it was convenient. The pastor of the NY Church that Trump occasionally attended said he hadn't seen Trump in 10 years. Like...you're unable to process how someone can read scripture and interpret it differently than you, so you accuse them of being the antichrist but someone who has actually gone against the most basic truisms of morality in the bible (adultery, idolatry, covetousness , etc) is just 'flawed.'

Maybe you don't mean me, because I am not a fan of Trump either, but it is really a different level of heresy between the two. Trump is patronizing. Talarico is false teaching. Again, the false teacher is more harshly treated in the Scriptures.

While Trump is not a great person and does appear to be an unrepentant sinner, he's not purposely trying to lie about Christ, profess heresy, and excuse sin and lead others purposely into damnation so he can win a senate seat.

ARE YOU A CHRISTIAN? Not trying to shout but I think this question is getting lost in all of the posts. Your posts are making me lean toward no but I don't want to assume.

Trump never "conned" me and I'd still prefer him over Talarico. Talarico isn't interpreting scripture differently. He knows the scripture and is teaching about it falsely. A believer would understand the seriousness of that. So, can you answer whether you're a believer or not?

Just because some of the words are the same, that does not make them an "interpretation". If you have to completely ignore entire swaths of the scripture to come up with your version of Christianity, which just happens to align with the political office to which you seek, then it is not just minor differences that can be given grace for.

Trump's patronizing of faithful is at least not his entire platform. I do find him to be perhaps a legitimate seeker who is too narcissistic to actually get it, but he is no false teacher.

Idk anymore to be honest. I was baptized and raised Catholic. Attended sunday school and church every week for 18 years straight. College happened and not by conscious decision, but through sheer change of circumstances simply 'wandered' away. Later, I was married in a church, have kids now, baptized them, and attend mass but struggle with belief today.

The Bible is the most widely sold book in history, by far. Try again.

A buddy of mine sent me one of his sermons to listen to, and after it ended YouTube started the next one and I got about half of the next. Instead of letting scripture guide his beliefs and actions, he twists scripture to align with his own far left wing beliefs and actions. He purposefully misquoted two scriptures that are commonly misquoted (money is the root of all evil, not love of money, and easier for a camel to pass... than a rich man) while demonizing Wall Street and the rich and praising socialism.

He mentioned "christian nationalism" probalby 20-25 times and calls the Republicans, conservatives and everyone on the right evil christian nationalists. He called the J6ers christian nationalists. His "church" needs their 501c3 status revoked ASAP. His sermons could double as a monologue on MSNBC or CNN or a left wing campaign speech.

He also rails on who he calls the christian nationalists that are politicians and how evil it is they use their power, all the while running for political office so he can gain power. Hypocritical much.

All this was in 1.5 campaign speeches, errr I mean "sermons".

If you are truly seeking (and I have no reason to think otherwise), like mentioned, I would encourage you to read the Bible for yourself

I've mentored many young people. One example, the guy just wanted the answer. "People disagree on this, what is the answer?" I'd tell him 'let's read it and see.' He said, "No, just tell me." I told him I'd just be another opinion.... the Word is the best source. THEN, see if other Scruptures support what you read.

It is why on an early post, I referred back to the OT from which Jesus was quoting, that Talarico quotes about Love. What was Jesus saying, when he said what he said.

Not "What dies <x> say that means" where x is Trump, Talarico, DA 94, TexAgs, Catholic Priest, other.

The Shema is the root. "Love the Lord your God with all your heart, soul, and mind." It is referenced repeatedly in the Bible. OT and NT. Seek the Lord. But not just the pieces you like.

The OT lays out God's character more fully. He required repentance and sacrifice. Jesus was the lamb who resolved that for eternity... but what Jesus fulfilled can only fully be appreciated when you see what He washed away.

And very important..... find a small group of sound, biblical men to spend time with regularly.

Saw his interview on Rogan awhile back. It was evident that he didn't go to seminary to learn scripture, he went to mold and massage scripture around his leftist ideology

---

And he attends a very woke and liberal seminary. Almost antichrist level woke.

The central point that was made pages ago, is that what Talarico preaches isn't false, it's an interpretation based on love for thy neighbor and the stranger. You disagree with his interpretations and thus call him the antichrist. Meanwhile, Trump, who by any standard holds himself as an idol to be 'worshipped' and has crossed dozens of biblical boundaries, is 'acceptable.'

Trump does not hold himself out to be a spiritual authority. He also isn't lying about what the Bible says.
