Stay with me here, I'm just showing quotes from twitter
The Rapture and the real world: Mike Pompeo blends beliefs and policy
Quote:Trump's evangelical advisors - those who will be praying with him at his rally today - mostly believe the Bible predicts a war between Iran and Israel before Jesus returns to rapture them in advance of the end of the world.
Quote:Evangelical support of Israel is, at best, instrumental to bringing about armageddon. It has very little to do with actually supporting the livelihood and wellbeing of Jews.
Quote:Might be worth remembering this Q&A w/ Pompeo in March 2019 - would Trump be the "Queen Esther" to save "the Jewish people from the Iranian menace?" Pompeo: "that's possible."https://www.nytimes.com/2019/03/30/us/po...olicy.html
There's always some evangelical apocalyptic/rapture thing in the background.
The Rapture and the real world: Mike Pompeo blends beliefs and policy
Quote:Did Mr. Pompeo think President Trump had been “raised for such a time as this, just like Queen Esther, to help save the Jewish people from the Iranian menace?”
“As a Christian, I certainly believe that’s possible,” Mr. Pompeo said.
