Speaker Mike Johnson promised he would govern "according to the Bible" but his what he says is different than what he does: Hypocrite

PLEASE 🙏🏼SHARE THIS: A social media echo from Ed Jansen:

My struggle with Speaker Mike Johnson is not that he is a conservative or that we disagree politically. People of good faith can disagree. My struggle is that he publicly presents himself as a “Bible-believing Christian,” yet repeatedly promotes claims that have been shown to be false—including the false claim that Democrats shut down the government to provide free healthcare to undocumented immigrants.

Jesus did not teach us to manipulate the truth to gain power. 

He said, “Let your ‘Yes’ be yes and your ‘No’ be no.” He taught that we recognize people by their fruits, and he reserved some of his strongest criticism for religious leaders who appeared righteous publicly while acting differently in practice.

Christian ✝️ faith is not proved by quoting the Bible, displaying religious symbols or condemning others. It is demonstrated through truthfulness, mercy, humility, justice and love.

Mike Johnson does not embarrass me because he is a Republican. He embarrasses me when he lies and uses Christianity to provide moral cover for dishonesty and political hypocrisy. That is not the way of Jesus—and he does not speak for my faith.

Again and again, Jesus says to them, “Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites!” Matthew 23:13-36
