Isn't it disturbing that a US president doesn't think they will make it to heaven?

[Renew Deal]

This quote from Trump saying that he doesn't think he'll make it to heaven is bouncing around today:

I think it's disturbing that he claims to be a Christian and doesn't think he's going to make it. He would know WHY he thinks he's not going to make it. It could lead him to act in traditionally immoral ways. Just for comparison, he said that he no longer had to think "purely of peace" after not winning the Nobel peace prize.

It doesn't matter what the rest of us think about religion. If he claims to be a believer and thinks his entry into heaven is a lost cause, then that makes it more likely for him to perform outrageous acts like he did today.

1. He belongs to Satan and is doing Satan's work

[RockRaven]

2. Eight decades of walking around spewing his consciousness of guilt for all to hear

and relative to his criminality he has never faced a meaningful consequence.

What a great society we've got going here!

3. Well, maybe he isn't as deranged as I thought.

That was a pretty accurate assumption based on reality.

4. He has no capacity to do good

Or think of others. I truly have never met anyone in my life as evil as he is.

5. If he's an actual believer, who ever attended church, he would know it is by faith in Christ -

not by his actions.

So, I guess he is admitting that either he isn't a Christian - or that he lacks faith in Christ.

Either one should disturb his evangelical followers.

6. Franklin Graham was freaked out enough

that he sent him a letter reminding him that he was saved by Jesus (Donald was sooo sincere), and therefore would go to heaven.

7. Graham will be joining him in Hell

If it exists.

8. Only if they actually believe in the childish idea of heaven.

9. I Think It's Bizarre For Any President, Whether Positive Or Negative.
