Trump Faith Advisors and Other Christian Leaders Were Among First to Condemn Capitol Violence: ‘That’s Not Jesus’
(Worthy News) – As Americans watched in horror on their phones and televisions, a violent mob overwhelmed police at the US Capitol Wednesday, storming the building and taking over the legislative chambers. Evangelical leaders were quick to respond and urge an end to the rioting.
The Southern Baptists’ public policy spokesman, Dr. Russell Moore, was one of the first, calling the attack on the Capitol immoral, unjust and dangerous. He urged the president to stop the rioters, tweeting, “President Trump, you have a moral responsibility to call on these mobs to stop this dangerous and anti-constitutional anarchy.”
Some of the president’s faith advisors like Rev. Sam Rodriguez and Pastor Robert Jeffress also called them out. Jeffress noted, “Disobeying and assaulting police is a sin, whether it’s done by Antifa or angry Republicans.” [ Source: CBN News (Read More…) ]
