Pat Robertson: Attacks on Trump Are 'Satanic'
 By Michael W. Chapman | March 1, 2017 | 1:50 PM EST

Commenting on the many entities critical of President Donald Trump -- liberals, the media, Hollywood, certain politicians -- Christian Broadcasting Network founder and 700 Club host Pat Robertson said some of the attacks were "satanic," spiritually based, and that some people want to "destroy America."

On the Feb. 28 edition of The 700 Club, co-host Wendy Griffith read a question from a viewer who asked, "Why do so many hate President Trump ... and want him out?"

Pat Robertson, a Baptist minister, said, “There’s a desire on the part of some, and I think it’s satanic, it really is spiritual, to destroy America."

I have no doubt that at some future date, historians will stumble across filing cabinets filled with documents laying out the left's long term plan to hire a bunch of televangelists and using them to discredit Christianity and people of faith in the minds and eyes of the world. There is a special place in hell for Pat and his fellow "gimmie money" TV preachers. I can't imagine a group of people that have done more harm to Christianity from within.

I generally have no use whatsoever for "televangelists" (or, for that matter for protestant spirituality in general), but Pat Robertson's comments often are worth attending to, despite the source.  He very presciently advocated intervention to remove the Venezuelan socialist government long before they turned what had been a fairly prosperous, developed country into a hell-hole.  In this case, seeing that he said "some", I have to agree with him.  As an Orthodox Christian, I'd have reached for the word "demonic" rather than "Satanic", but I'm not sure how else to describe the protesters turning into a howling mob when a Republican congressman's town-hall in Louisiana was opened with a prayer. 

And, at a deeper level, the left, even when they are civil, has always had hatred of Christianity as its most fundamental commitment, from the time it got that name from the seating arrangement in the French National Assembly down to the present.
What other than the spirit of antichrist can account for simultaneously championing sexual perversity (against Christian "bigots") and at the same time championing Islam which, when in power actually executes people for the same perversions (something that died out in English-speaking Christendom when the Buggery Act of 1553 was repealed in stages in the 19th century)?  What other than the spirit of antichrist accounts for sneering at Christian charity, while building state programs that are fleshly imitations of it, devoid of either generosity of spirit and prompting no gratitude in the recipients of state largess?
And when they behead your own people in the wars which are to come, then you will know what this was all about.

I think he needs to think about SATANariums.  Maybe Elmer G. aka Pat Robertson should have satanariums erected close to his churches for people to go and "exorcise the demons" as it were. Which would include, of course, a large monetary contribution to Pat's many worthy causes fighting satan and his pals.  :amen:

Whether it be purposful or he just has fallen into the hope for change trap, be he, like many others, have replaced the role of God with that of the nation and government.

This is nothing new for Robertson.

The comments on that article, at least most of them, are just as sad.

I really have to wonder about the faith of most Trump supporters who call themselves Christians.

Do they not believe in final judgement or do they think God left them a loophole to repent as needed.

Meanwhile, if you're facing financial trouble, borrow more money to send to The 700 Club and God will wipe out all your debt and make you rich!

Words for Christians to live by and other help tips:  by Pat Robertson

Men with “rebellious” wives should live where wife-beating is legal.

You should cast demons out of secondhand clothes you buy, lest their previous owner’s evil infect you.

God punishes people for having too much education.

Beware “scamsters in religious garb.”

The government is gearing up to round up Americans for unspecified reasons.

Abortion is a lesbian conspiracy.   

Divorce is wrong, unless your wife gets sick. (The John Edwards defense)

I'm sensing a business opportunity. 'Rent-an-exorcist.' You hire one out for the day and take him shopping at the Salvation Army.

Added points if he's in drag while accompanying you into the changing room while driving the devil out of you.

I know folks that buy into this nonsense and its so sad. One of them visited our Church once and was busy sprinkling anointing oil all over the place.

I never could figure out why demons were scared of Olive Oil. 
“The way I see it, every time a man gets up in the morning he starts his life over. Sure, the bills are there to pay, and the job is there to do, but you don't have to stay in a pattern. You can always start over, saddle a fresh horse and take another trail.” ― Louis L'Amour

We had one old lady in church when I was a kid who swore up and down little statues in your house held demons. And dont even get me started on the anti rock and roll presentations.

Sowing seeds, pressed down, shaken together, runneth over, whatever you sow will be returned to you seven times over, yadda yadda...... God is your magic genie if you have enough faith. If you are poor, your faith isnt strong enough and you need to sow more seeds to build it....
