Jim Bakker: Trump was chosen by God to prepare Christians for the End Times

On The Jim Bakker Show this Monday, host Jim Bakker revealed to his audience that God had communicated to him a message about President Trump and why he’s currently in the White House. Long story short: the end is nigh.

According to Bakker’s account of God’s message, the first horse of the Apocalypse has been released on earth — but thanks to Trump’s election, Christians now have some time to prepare.

“Have you ever seen a time when we hate our president like the people do now?” Bakker said before repeating a theme he’s mentioned before.

“Literally half the nation hates the president and would probably kill him if they got a chance.”

God’s message, as relayed by Bakker, says that the world is now living out “Revelation, Chapter 6,” which deals with the Four Horseman of the Apocalypse.

“This is what He told me,” Bakker claimed. “He said, ‘Donald Trump is a respite in this troubled times and I sent him in grace to give you time to prepare for what’s coming on earth.’”

“God has given us a man who is not afraid to fight,” Bakker continued.

Sure lets say they are here. But you think God has anything to do with Trump? No Trump is a evil fucking person and evil tests good. Who usually wins? Good. I'm not religious. But we are prepared to fight evil in these times.

Oh, that's right, he gets them from the Bible. It's the world's best selling hate manual and loony-tutor.

"No one knows about that day or hour, not even the angels in heaven, nor the Son, but only the Father. (Matthew 24:36)

So he knows more than the Angels and the Son.

But, everyone with an agenda has their own loopholes.

As the 'Christian' I attempt to be, I do follow that particular scripture as a belief.

Not to say that there are non-Christians who may have an inner knowing or intellect that can wisely 'prophesy' future things.

There are those who 'purport' to be prophetically 'ordained' and they are NOT, leading many astray.

There is no “seeing or wisdom” about reality other than what we can understand from reason, logic, and carefully constructed testable hypotheses. The rest is pretty much nonsense.

The “prophets” who are specific in their prophecies are demonstrably wrong, the others are just frauds.

Just one grifter and cheater watching the back of another. I wish people who cling to this charlatan would just for once use a teensy bit of common sense and see him for what he is.

He said Jim Bakker is a charlaton, a grifter and a narcissistic buffoon. Maybe we need to sort out the conflicting messages before we proceed.

Woe to you who long for the day of the Lord!
Why do you long for the day of the Lord?
That day will be darkness, not light.
It will be like a man fleeing from a lion only to meet a bear,
as though he entered his home and rested his hand on the wall only to be bitten by a snake
Will not the day of the Lord be darkness, not light — pitch-dark, without a ray of brightness?

"I hate, I despise your religious festivals.
To me, your assemblies stink .
Bring me burnt offerings and grain offerings: I will not accept them.
Bring choice offerings: I have no regard for them.
Away with your noisy songs: I will not hear the music of your harps.
But let justice roll on like a river, and righteousness like a never-failing stream!"
