Using Bible verses to justify violence is not only the opposite of what Jesus teaches, it’s a direct contradiction of the passage Hegseth cites in this video.

“Here am I, send me” was the prophet Isaiah’s response after being called by God to deliver a message to the people and their leaders. What was the message?

“Your leaders are rebels, the companions of thieves. All of them love bribes and demand payoffs, but they refuse to defend the cause of orphans or fight for the rights of widows.” Isaiah 1:23

What were these corrupt and rebellious leaders doing?

“Woe to those who make unjust laws, to those who issue oppressive decrees, to deprive the poor of their rights and withhold justice from the oppressed of my people, making widows their prey and robbing the fatherless. What will you do on the day of reckoning, when disaster comes from afar? To whom will you run for help? Where will you leave your riches?” Isaiah 10:1-3

God is sending Isaiah to warn the people, and more specifically their leaders, that if they do not turn from their corrupt ways and begin caring for the most vulnerable among them, they will suffer God’s judgment. Isaiah answers that call by saying, “Here am I, send me.”

This isn’t just about taking a few Bible verses out of context. For an administration filled corrupt leaders to claim these verses while perpetrating the very marginalization and oppression being condemned in this passage is the height of blasphemy.

Our food is poisoned, gas is ridiculously expensive, Americans are struggling to make ends meet, we’re still at war with Iran and this is his priority? What a clown show. 🤡

JUST IN: President Trump has signed an executive order changing the name of Lake Ontario to "Lake America." The name change is "effective immediately," Trump said. https://t.co/pvptUp6pBm

@RGIII Blaming fans instead of holding professional athletes accountable for their performance is really stupid, Robert.

[Candice Silvers @candicenoree]

why is our government rage baiting us?

[The White House @WhiteHouse]

TWO KINGS. 👑

[Mehdi Hasan @mehdirhasan]

This would be a two or three week news story in a previous administration, and might even lead to the resignation of the defense secretary. He literally fabricated a Biblical quote, based off of a movie, while pretending to be a pious Christian.

But under Trump, we’ll have moved on by tomorrow.

I am not merely a Catholic by affiliation, I nearly walked the path to the priesthood. Scripture, to me, has never been casual reading; it has been studied with the care of a sculptor refining form; patiently, attentively, reverently.

And so I say this with both conviction and humility:

Prayer is not performance. It is not spectacle. It is a sacred act, an intimate communion between the human spirit and the divine. A means not only to speak, but to interface with the heavens, the hosts of heaven themselves.

When we pray, we approach with humility. With thanksgiving. With love. Just as one brings offerings into the house of the Lord, not in arrogance, but in surrender.

Which is why moments of public prayer demand even greater care.

When figures such as Paula White stand before the world in prayer, the expectation is clear: to seek wisdom, not validation. To ask that leaders like Donald Trump be guided toward justice, compassion, peace, and discernment. To intercede for the poor, the vulnerable, and the preservation of life. That is what true supplication looks like.

But to elevate any political figure especially during the sacred solemnity of Holy Week to a comparison with the sinless Son of God is not devotion.

It is error.

And more than that, it borders on blasphemy.

Likewise, when Franklin Graham invokes the Book of Esther as justification for the destruction of a modern nation such as Iran, it reflects not divine insight, but a troubling misapplication of scripture. Context matters. Theology demands responsibility. Sacred texts are not instruments for political ends.

Faith was never meant to be weaponized.

It was meant to guide, to correct, to humble.

And if we are to invoke God in matters of leadership and war, then let it be done with trembling reverence, not confident distortion.

Because the danger is not in believing too deeply but in believing wrongly.

I am ashamed, this is our Holy Week for Gods sake.

God have mercy.

[Sophia A. Nelson @IAmSophiaNelson]

Who talks like this?

Reagan did not. Bush 41 did not. Bush 43 did not. Clinton did not. Obama did not. Biden did not. No U.S. President speaks this way. None.

[Hadley Sheley @HadleySheley]

Oh. Then why aren’t Katie Miller and Laura Ingraham at home taking care of their kids and making sandwiches instead of reaping the rewards off the backs of decades of feminists that came before them.

[Harry Sisson @harryjsisson]

I expect every Republican who was outraged at people for celebrating Charlie Kirk’s death to immediately condemn Trump for saying “I’m glad he’s dead” about Robert Mueller. This is disgusting.

[Olivia Julianna 🇺🇸🦅🗳️ @0liviajulianna]

These are the exact kinds of Christians that have driven millions out of the church.

[DR JANE RUBY™️ @RealDrJaneRuby]

DO YOU UNDERSTAND HOW DANGEROUS THIS TALK IS???

[Reed Carringer @rcarringer]

I’ve really tried. But I’ll never understand how a single person thinks this man is intelligent. Or in any way morally admirable.

[Julianne ✝️ 🕊️ @KindeandTrue]

Every Christian should condemn this exploitation of our faith and our Holy Bible for an unholy, immoral, unjust, genocidal war.

[Rick Wilson @TheRickWilson]

Let's be very clear.

This is pure, unadulterated disrespect.

[blue @bluewmist]

i have no desire to be rich so i can buy a rolex or a lamborghini.

i want to be rich so i can control my time and go to the gym at 3pm on a monday.

sit at a cafe and relax for an hour on a rainy afternoon.

so i can cook meals at home with fresh ingredients.

spend on my family and friends without worrying about a budget.

that's my idea of a rich life, not the fake consumerist idea shoved down my throat.

[Justin Macmahan @JustinMacmahan]

Imagine how much a woman president would get roasted for talking about interior decorating instead of the war they just kicked off

[Josh Sorbe @joshsorbe]

The "keep politics out of sports" crowd sure had wildly different responses here.

Pretty obvious why.

[Jennifer Erin Valent 🇺🇸🇺🇦 @JenniferEValent]

When I was growing up, and when I was a nanny, it was relatively universally agreed upon that kids should be taught, and adults should exemplify, good sportsmanship. We cannot let this admin of ignorant, juvenile, insecure people drag our nation into this gutter with them.
