Conservative Christians call Trump’s inauguration preacher a charlatan and heretic

For those of you who follow Christianity, you won’t be surprised to find out that Trump’s inauguration preacher is held in the same esteem among Christians as Trump is among conservatives. The real ones, anyway.

From the Washington Examiner:

Florida’s Paula White, age 50, will join Franklin Graham, Cardinal Timothy Dolan, Rabbi Marvin Hier of the Simon Wiesenthal Center and other religious leaders in participating in the Trump inaugural festivities. Unlike the others, White is a proponent of the “prosperity gospel” — the belief that God blesses the faithful with health and wealth — who has come under attack for her theology, marital history and finances.

“Paula White is a trinity denying heretic,” wrote conservative Christian commentator Erick Erickson. “She rejects the Council of Nicaea’s creed that every Christian accepts. To reject the orthodoxy of the Nicene Creed is to reject Christianity itself.”

“Paula White is a charlatan and recognized as a heretic by every orthodox Christian, of whatever tribe,” echoed Russell Moore of the Southern Baptist Convention’s Ethics and Religious Liberty Commission.

“Paula White has a long history of bankruptcies, failed business ventures, and unsuccessful marriages, which makes her the perfect choice to deliver a prayer on behalf a president-elect who has proudly proclaimed that he’s never felt the need to ask forgiveness from God for anything,” complained Paula Bolyard in a post titled “Twice Divorced Paula White Praying at Trump Inaugural Exactly What We Expected.”

Just for fun, here’s Paula White talking about the great faith Trump has:

Never forget, nothing matters.
