'Prosperity Gospel' televangelist and Trump spiritual advisor Paula White-Cain named to new position as leader of White House Faith Office

The president signed an executive order establishing a White House Faith Office and chose Pastor Paula White-Cain, his ally and spiritual advisor, to lead it.

Some of Trump’s Christian MAGA supporters took to social media to express their disappointment in the president’s pick.

“Even though President Trump is enforcing laws that line up with our values, that doesn’t mean he has any clue what biblical Christianity is or why it matters,” Christian podcast host John Mason wrote on X. “Paula White is a known heretic and known false teacher who has no regard for the Gospel of Jesus Christ.”

Scott Ross, a Texas-based leadership coach and self-described “Orthodox Christian,” called the move “an abomination.”

[Jon Root] "Plus, women should not be pastors according to The Bible.”

White-Cain, who is twice-divorced, is currently married to Journey guitarist Jonathan Cain. [I wondered about the new hyphen]

Its more correct to call him the keyboard player, as keys (and writing) are his main contribution to the band. Think of the opening of Dont Stop Believin. Thats him.

As for his wife, I think there's many terrific Christians out there in the world, but I dont trust this scammy prosperity stuff one bit.

Dont. Stop believin.

Why do we have a faith office in the white house anyway? Shouldnt the pres or anyone else there just have their own pastor or rabbi or imam or shaman?

Maybe the Reagans should have made Joan Quigley the official court astrologer? .....She pretty much was anyway.

Twice-divorced, philanderer, and accused swindler.

Now do you understand why Trump likes her?

Not a fan of her theology to say the least.

News at 11, people shocked that guy who has never seen the inside of a Bible doesn't have a clue about Christian theology.

Well don't most of us pray for prosperity and when difficulties come our way do we not pry that they be removed?

But Christ by his teaching and example showed a way of grateful acceptance of God's will whatever it is even to the point of accepting our own cross. But who here wants that?

I remember reading it, if memory serves correctly. Maybe I'm wrong.

I'm pretty sure Trump said he doesn't read the Bible.

Ope! Looks like I'm mistaken.

I mean, they have to warehouse those Lee Greenwood ones somewhere. Then he's got the one he held upside down after he marched through Lafayette Square. I imagine Paula White has used one to pray over him. So, he's got a few.

So, so odd.

Depends what you mean by prosperity. Plenty of early Christians were fed to the lions in the Roman colosseum.

I doubt they cared about their “possessions” at that point.

Right.. We today do not what the Full Gospel because it calls for self sacrifice rather self protection and self giving rather than self hording, self denial rather than self centering.
