Trump hired Jesus’ personal Spokesmodel for the WH!
Well, well. The MAGA Christian leadership is finally getting antsy about Trump's official "Spiritual Adviser".
Paula White-Cain was appointed as Trump's special advisor to the Faith and Opportunity Initiative, which was part of the Office of Public Liaison in 2019, after she delivered the invocation at Trump's first inauguration on January 20, 2017.
White-Cane leads City of Destiny Church in Apopka, Florida, and is married to Journey keyboardist Jonathan Cain, her third marriage.
From 2007 through 2011, the Senate Finance Committee investigated six megachurch televangelists, including White-Cain's ministry Without Walls International Church, that had been accused of misusing charitable, tax-exempt funds.
According to the final report, Without Walls paid salaries for extended family members, owned and operated a private jet and frequently chartered flights including trips to the Cayman Islands and a boxing match in Las Vegas, and paid for down payments on an 8,072 square-foot mansion in Tampa and a $3.5 million condo in Trump Tower in New York City.
. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
This year, for his second administration, Donald Trump appointed her to lead the newly established White House Faith Office, which he established by Executive Order on February 6th, as a "Special Government Employee and Senior Advisor" (I have not been able to find out her salary).
At the same event, Trump issued an Executive Order directing the Department of Justice to prosecute "anti-Christian bias."
Her duties are to "assist faith-based entities, community organizations, and houses of worship in their efforts to strengthen American families, promote work and self-sufficiency, and protect religious liberty." Her office is housed in the Domestic Policy Council building.
And in true Trumpian fashion, she has found her new position... rewarding.
But she is now facing backlash from other Christian leaders for her online Passover Season sermon video, which she released on March 23.
. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
THE SERMON
Paula White-Cain said: "I believe that when you honor God on Passover, starting on April 12th at sundown, through Good Friday on the 18th and concluding on Easter Sunday, you can receive seven supernatural blessings for you and your house.
"According to Exodus 23,
God will assign an angel to you,
he will be an enemy to your enemies,
he will give you prosperity,
he will take sickness away from you,
he will give you a long life,
he'll bring increase in inheritance
and he'll bring a special year of blessing."
BUT, Paula let the Faithful know that her God does not do stuff for FREE.
"And God declares in Exodus 23:15:
'None shall appear before me empty-handed.'
We always bring to God - that's how he says from Genesis to Revelation.
"Ministry takes money.
"And if you have the ability to stand with us, I want to ask you to put your faith during this very holy time - because I give just to give, and I pray there are others, but also know we wanna get you some special gifts."
Her video goes on with an exhortation to "honor God with your Passover/Easter Resurrection Offering" with a list of different amounts, which will get good Christians a "Holy Land Communion Set " with two olive wood cups, grape juice and unleavened bread from Israel and an instruction booklet "on how to celebrate the Lord's supper" all in an "attractive, commemorative boxset."
Godly worshippers would also get White-Cain's Passover devotional book, her DVD series and a "special disc on communion."
But, "for your special Passover offering of $1,000 or more as the Holy Spirit leads, you will also receive the "beautiful 10-inch Waterford crystal cross."
"Don't miss your moment to release seven supernatural blessings and provision into your life," the video says.
. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
And there you have it.
Or rather, she has it.
But it appears at least SOME Christian leaders are not having it...
Conservative influencer Jon Root, who is a supporter of Trump, said "Anybody that you know holds true to strong biblical conviction and discernment wouldn't be involved with Paula White."
Evangelist and author Justin Peters shared a photo of White-Cain praying over Trump with the message: "I may vote with a false teacher, but I will never, ever, under any circumstances, pray with one or participate in any spiritual endeavor of any kind with one."
It remains to be seen if the Prosperity Gospel Charismatics continue to be aligned politically with the Evangelicals, Catholics and other Christian sects in the Trump religious right crusade.
Or if the worship of Jesus Christ wins out in the end.
