White House says Trump's comments on 'not getting into heaven' were humility

The Director of the White House Faith Office says everyone is misunderstanding the president when he says he's not sure he's going to heaven.

As previously reported by AFN, President Donald Trump made concerning comments before he boarded Air Force One on his way to Israel. He answered a question regarding if he thinks his work with Israel will get him into heaven, a callback to a similar statement he made in August regarding the Ukraine/Russia war.

“I don't think there's anything going to get me in heaven. I think I'm not maybe heaven bound,” answered Trump in response. 

According to the Christian Post, Jennifer Korn, the Director of the White House Faith office, told the National Hispanic Christian Leadership Conference that, when he says he's not sure he's going to make heaven, he's being humble. After spending the last 10 years around the President, she said, "I know his language, it was humility."

Christian apologist Alex McFarland has it on good authority, from two unimpeachable witnesses, that President Trump is born again.

“Robert Jeffress said to me, 'I shared the gospel, prayed the sinner's prayer with Donald Trump, and I believe that he was sincere.' James Dobson said to me that he had explained the gospel and bowed and led Donald Trump in what we call the Sinner's Prayer,” says McFarland.

So, why would he say he's probably not going to heaven?

“I completely suspect Trump is saved, but he's a baby Christian. He's not mature in his faith, and he doesn't understand the assurance that we have as a believer,” states McFarland.

He says a lot of new believers struggle with that.

“You know, it might sound not humble for someone to say, 'I know I'm going to heaven,' but actually a Christian can know,” says McFarland.

McFarland says that it's understandable to be confused or concerned about a lot of the things Donald Trump says, but that's not uncommon for men who break the mold.

“In a world of cheap copies, Donald Trump is an original. He's a Brian Wilson in a world of Justin Biebers,” says McFarland.
