Less than a week to go. Let’s check in on the court evangelicals

John Fea   |  October 28, 2020

Trump’s favorite evangelicals are making their closing arguments. Here are some of them:

Franklin Graham believes that God works through the United States Supreme Court. It is also worth noting that he is bragging here about attending a super-spreader event:

We thank God another conservative, pro-life judge is now a member of the Supreme Court—this is an answer to prayer for our country. This makes 3 originalist justices that @POTUS Trump has added to the highest court in the land, & this will impact our nation for decades to come.

— Franklin Graham (@Franklin_Graham) October 27, 2020

These two tweets from James Robison are pretty revealing:

The Founding Fathers believed that unfettered truth was the only suitable ground upon which openness, honesty and freedom could be established – whether in families & communities, or among nations. Truth is a reflection of the way things actually are. It is the fabric of reality.

— James Robison (@revjamesrobison) October 26, 2020

This year's election is more than a choice between candidates or parties. It is between a worldview that puts God at the top & the security that can be found only in trusting Him – or a worldview that puts man first with dependence upon an all-powerful federal government.

Jentezen Franklin does not seem to understand that overturning Roe v. Wade will do little to end the “abortion agenda” in the United States.

Amy Coney Barrett has been confirmed by the Senate. It’s so rewarding to know the constitution is secure and that there is hope for overturning the most radical abortion agenda in the modern world. This is big news for today and future generations!

As might be expected, Jack Graham is supporting Al Mohler’s argument for Trump:

Thank you @albertmohler for demonstrating leadership and clearly defining where you stand. All SBC leaders should do the same https://t.co/dSUNXsx3Pd

— Jack Graham (@jackngraham) October 26, 2020

“The most successful term of a President in my lifetime”:

When Amy Coney Barrett is confirmed as Justice this evening it will cap the most successful first term of a President in my lifetime. @realDonaldTrump deserves 4 more years.

— Jack Graham (@jackngraham) October 26, 2020

Christianity Today actually gave Paula White space to make her argument for Trump. What are the chances that PR man Johnnie Moore wrote this piece?:

If you want to know why you should vote for Trump you might want to read this! @realDonaldTrump https://t.co/9zatl7h5jM

John Hagee believes that Amy Coney Barrett is a “righteous judge.” Perhaps he is confusing the nomination of Barret with what the Pslamist says in Psalm 7:1. and Psalm 9:4.

Our prayers have been answered! God has given us a righteous judge that will bring truth and honor to our Supreme Court—the Bible says, “when the righteous are in authority; the people rejoice…”. It’s time for the American people to rejoice! Thank you Lord!

Tony Perkins wants us to believe that he supports Amy Coney Barrett because she holds a “proper understanding” of the Constitution. He could care less about this. It’s all about Coney’s previous statements on abortion and what he believes to be her willingness to “inject social policy issues into the court.”

Judge Barrett deftly answered ‘gotcha’ questions from Senate Dems & refused to go along with their insistence on injecting social policy issues into the courts. Instead, she displayed an untiring commitment to an originalist philosophy which seeks to interpret the law as written.

They said something similar about every conservative appointment in the last forty years. We will see what happens:

This swearing in will ripple through history for the next 40 Years. God bless the President and the USA.#JusticeACB #JusticeBarrett #JusticeAmyConeyBarrett ⁦@realDonaldTrump⁩ pic.twitter.com/JOqm8w7Zk3

Look and weep?. It sounds like Bauer just dropped a royal flush in a poker game:

Look and weep Biden! The Nuns are on the MAGA train! ⁦@realDonaldTrump⁩ #Trump2020 #KAG# ⁦@MZHemingway⁩ pic.twitter.com/m95eifbPIW

Ralph Reed would prefer massive crowds that are not social distanced and not wearing masks. In other words, a Trump rally. Yes, Ralph Reed supports pro-life candidates.

Wayne Grudem is still at it.

Eric Metaxas is still talking about “the end of America as we know it.”

Jack Hibbs believes God answered his prayers:

This kid called John Piper a “fool.” Now he is lecturing more pastors:

To the churches & “Pastors” that mobilized your congregation to march with BLMinc. while staying silent on the confirmation battle for ACB, you have shown America your moral fraud and cowardice.

You care more about being liked and spreading lies than protecting the unborn.

— Charlie Kirk (@charliekirk11) October 27, 2020

Sadly, this all Jenna Ellis and the rest of the Falkirk Center crowd at Liberty University have left:

Wait for iiiit….. https://t.co/ntELzCXr3i
