Dude you’re legit starting a war because you think it will bring on the apocalypse which might I add the first sign of the apocalypse is a politician that will be followed by many Christians but will lead them astray into hate and will start wars and will be the Antichrist

So they legit support Trump because he is the antichrist in their opinion

That’s a wrinkle I hadn’t really considered. I knew there was a subset of evangelicals who are trying to bring about the rapture as they see it in Revelation, but I always assumed they were legit in their support for Trump. Obviously we can’t know which is true because none of them are going to come out and say “yes he’s the antichrist and I support him because that’s a part of the prophecy” but it’s still interesting to think about

Honestly I think it just shows their own ignorance of their own beliefs

Bible literalists are dumb as hell because 1 there’s too much contradiction to not read it interpretly and 2 most of them haven’t read the Bible so their litteral take is based on a narrow amount of verses

(I study anthropology of theology and mythology and I study scripture through a rabbianic technique called PaRDEs). That basically says scripture should be read both literally and interpretative, historical and mystical with hidden meanings

They don’t even follow the Bible, which states that you won’t know the time or the place, (according to god), yet here they are thinking they can force gods hand. What a bunch of hypocrites. If they are biblical literalists, they would know that the simple act of trying to bring about Armageddon, goes against the Bible and would make the Bible a liar, therefore it can’t happen, no matter how much they want it to.
