Jeffress didn’t actually call for or predict civil war. What he said was that impeachment would cause “a Civil War–like fracture in this nation from which this country will never heal.” Under normal, sane social conditions such a statement by an insignificant individual would go unnoticed, but old DT had to repeat the statement and every left-wing media outlet had to jump on it and twist it into a call for war and violence.

I haven’t actually seen any analysis of the statement to determine whether or not it is true, but of course this is not about truth—it’s all about yelling and screaming, school-yard fashion. My opinion is that at least the first part of the sentence is true. Impeachment has a good chance of getting DT re-elected, and who knows what that will lead to.

For healing we need a better way of thinking. We need to graduate at least from elementary school.

"If the Democrats are successful in removing the President from office (which they will never be), it will cause a Civil War like fracture in this Nation from which our Country will never heal.” Pastor Robert Jeffress,

Sounds pretty much like a prophesy and a threat to me Bill

@LenHazell53 It is a prophecy and a threat, but by a minor figure that few people have heard of. If DT had just ignored it we’d be better off, but he likes stirring things up.

@WilliamFleming Of course he does, self publicity has always been his stock in trade, if everyone had ignored his bluster from the start he might have had to get a proper job and learned to be a decent human being.

"Can't read or either too stupid to understand" and yet he thinks we worship Moloch. What a dumbass.

I have heard so many Christians misquote Mammon as Moloch it is ridiculous and yet they call us dumb

No man can serve two masters: for either he will hate the one, and love the other; or else he will hold to the one, ... You cannot serve both God and Mammon.
‎Matthew 6:24

Mammon is the Canaanite devil the tempter with wealth and yes does demand human sacrifice but Moloch or rather Molech the Canaanite god of the dessert is mentioned only once in the bible

“And he defiled Topheth, which is in the valley of the sons of Hinnom, that no one might burn his son or his daughter as an offering to Moloch” (2 Kings 23:10).

A god who sacrifices his own son? Hmmm where I have I heard that before?

There will be a push toward the possibility of violence as a means to scare away potential voters. I wouldn't be surprised by a rise in violence as the election nears or to a "Brown shirt" more red maga either.

What a dildo brain.
Surely this is incitement to violence?
Or is this what Trump means by religious freedom, the freedom to wage war but only in the name of the "proper, white, Trump appointing" god?
