Speaking on Fox &#038; Friends about his efforts to end the war in Ukraine, Trump remarked that if he could save 7,000 lives a week, that would be &#8220;pretty good,&#8221; and added that such efforts might help him get to heaven. While his comment was somewhat tongue-in-cheek, the article explains that the idea of earning a place in heaven through good works conflicts with conventional biblical teachings emphasizing salvation through faith in Jesus Christ&#8217;s sacrificial death, not through human deeds.<\/p>\n<p>The article acknowledges Trump&#8217;s positive role in promoting peace, citing his involvement in resolving multiple conflicts, and notes that Jesus praised peacemakers. Though, it stresses that according to the Bible, entrance into heaven comes from being &#8220;born again&#8221; by accepting Christ, not from moral actions alone.It references key scriptures such as John 3:16 and the &#8220;Romans road&#8221; outlining salvation by grace through faith.<\/p>\n<p>Additionally, the article touches on Trump&#8217;s Christian background, including attending a Billy graham crusade as a child and growing up attending Marble Collegiate Church, though it suggests he may not yet fully grasp or have embraced the gospel salvation message.The piece concludes with a call to pray for Trump&#8217;s spiritual understanding and growth in faith.  <\/p>\n<div id=\"ld-4686-3758\"><\/div>\n<p><script>(function(w,d,s,i){w.ldAdInit=w.ldAdInit||[];w.ldAdInit.push({slot:14832835450050406,size:[0, 0],id:\"ld-4686-3758\"});if(!d.getElementById(i)){var j=d.createElement(s),p=d.getElementsByTagName(s)[0];j.async=true;j.src=\"https:\/\/cdn2.decide.dev\/_js\/ajs.js\";j.id=i;p.parentNode.insertBefore(j,p);}})(window,document,\"script\",\"ld-ajs\");<\/script><\/p>\n<p class=\"readmore\">\n    <button onclick=\"showReadMore()\" id=\"readmorebtn\">Read more&#8230;<\/button>\n<\/p>\n<hr id=\"line\">\n<span id=\"more\"><\/p>\n<p><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><\/p>\n<section> \t\t\t\t<script>console.log(\"ad slot (AC1)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (IC1)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (IC2)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (IC3)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (IC4)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (REP_0)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (REP_1)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (REP_2)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (REP_3)\")<\/script><\/p>\n<p>President Donald Trump communicated a misunderstanding of the Gospel message of Jesus Christ during an interview Tuesday morning.<\/p>\n<p>During a telephone interview with &ldquo;Fox &amp; Friends&rdquo; regarding his efforts to bring the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.westernjournal.com\/poll-trumps-popularity-surges-putin-meeting-rises-places-democrats-never-expected\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Ukraine war<\/a> to an end, the president said, &ldquo;If I can save 7,000 people a week from being killed, that&rsquo;s &hellip; pretty good.&rdquo;<\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;I want to try and get to heaven, if possible,&rdquo; he continued. &ldquo;I&rsquo;m hearing I&rsquo;m not doing well.

In what some Bible teachers call the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.forthegospel.org\/read\/the-romans-road-to-salvation\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Romans road to salvation<\/a>, Paul wrote in Romans 3:23, &ldquo;For all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God.&rdquo;<\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;But God demonstrates His own love toward us, in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us,&rdquo; Romans 5:8 then says.<\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;For the wages of sin is death, but the gracious gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord,&rdquo; according to Romans 6:23.<\/p>\n<p>Romans 8:1 states, &ldquo;Therefore, there is now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus.&rdquo;<\/p>\n<p>Finally, Paul exhorts, &ldquo;That if you confess with your mouth Jesus as Lord, and believe in your heart that God raised Him from the dead, you will be saved.&rdquo;<\/p>\n<p>So we are saved and ultimately heaven-bound by praying to receive Christ into our hearts and thereby being born again by the Holy Spirit.<\/p>\n<p>While speaking at a memorial service at the Capitol for Billy Graham in 2018, Trump recounted attending one of the evangelist&rsquo;s crusades in New York in 1957.<\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;I remember that because my father said to me, &lsquo;Come on, son,&rsquo; and by the way he said, &lsquo;Come on, Mom, let&rsquo;s go see Billy Graham at Yankee Stadium. And it was something very special,&rdquo; Trump said.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"YouTube video player\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/KTBzsYhYnM8?si=lwpfHMpHR5IeC6mX&amp;start=130\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>He certainly would have heard the Gospel message at <a href=\"https:\/\/billygrahamlibrary.org\/blog-crusade-memorabilia-yankee-stadium\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Graham&rsquo;s crusade<\/a>. Trump would have been 11 years old at the time, so he may not have understood it all or been ready to receive Christ.<\/p>\n<p>I heard the Gospel message several times growing up, I&rsquo;m sure, but it wasn&rsquo;t until my senior year in college at <a href=\"https:\/\/www.westernjournal.com\/watch-west-point-crowd-cheers-trump-uses-biblical-imagery-combating-devil-commencement-address\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">West Point<\/a> that I received Christ.
