Pence implies Trump is a bad Christian as 2024 announcement looms

Mike Pence attempted to court conservative Christians during a speech in Washington, D.C., last weekend, implying that he is a better Christian than former President Donald Trump.
The former vice president made multiple religious digs at Trump. At one point, he implied that Trump does not read the Bible even though he claims to be a believer. Pence also said when Trump did read the Bible, he enjoyed the verses on getting rid of his enemies.
“I once invited President Trump to Bible study,” Pence said in the speech. “He really liked the passages about the smiting and perishing of thine enemies. As he put it, ‘Ya know, Mike, there’s some really good stuff in here.'"
Although Pence has not announced a bid for the White House in 2024, Christian conservatives would be an important pool of voters if he does. Pence helped attract white evangelicals during Trump's 2016 election, but the duo will not be on the same ticket in 2024.

I know a lot of Christians like Mike Pence. Any problem comes along and they want to pray on it until the problem just disappears. I prefer the Christians who ask the LORD for guidance and then take action.
Trump may be an in your face, direct, big talking, thin skinned man, but he takes action and expects those around him to do the same. If his faith doesn't conform to the traditional model all I can say is, "thank the Lord I don't need a theological degree to be saved."
