It&#8217;s happening all the time. It&#8217;s a very sad thing that&#8217;s going on in our country, but we&#8217;re gonna get it turned around.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Per <a href=\"https:\/\/www.christianpost.com\/news\/trump-rolls-out-god-bless-the-usa-bible-during-holy-week.html\"><em>The Christian Post<\/em><\/a>, he also noted that &#8220;religion and Christianity are the biggest things missing from this country,&#8221; adding that is the reason why the country is under chaos.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I think it&#8217;s one of the biggest problems we have,&#8221; he said. &#8220;That&#8217;s why our country is going haywire. We&#8217;ve lost religion in our country.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Trump contended that all Americans should own a Bible and shared that he owns &#8220;many&#8221; of them because it&#8217;s his &#8220;favorite book.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;This Bible is a reminder that the biggest thing we have to bring back America and make America great again is our religion,&#8221; he said. Religion is so important; it&#8217;s so missing, but it&#8217;s going to come back, and it&#8217;s going to come back strong, just like our country is going to come back strong.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;In the end, we do not answer to bureaucrats in Washington, we answer to God in Heaven,&#8221; he continued. &#8220;Christians are under siege. We must protect content that is pro-God. We love God, and we have to protect anything that is pro-God. We must defend God in the public square and not allow the media or the left-wing groups to silence, censor, or discriminate against us.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>In closing, Trump claimed the Founding Fathers &#8220;did a tremendous thing when they built America on Judeo-Christian values&#8221; but that their foundation is &#8220;under attack, perhaps as never before.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>He also encouraged listeners to buy the Bible to &#8220;help spread our Christian values with others.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Earlier this week, Trump seemed to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mirror.co.uk\/news\/us-news\/breaking-donald-trump-says-christ-32437140\">compare<\/a> himself to Jesus Christ&#8217;s unfair trial following his civil fraud case in New York, where he was ordered to pay $454 million. On Monday, a New York appeals court ruled that the state will delay possibly seizing Trump&#8217;s assets if he can put up $175 million within ten days.<\/p>\n<p>He shared a message from a supporter who noted how the legal battle he is facing takes place during Holy Week. Trump also quoted from <a href=\"https:\/\/www.biblestudytools.com\/psalms\/passage\/?q=psalms+109:3-8\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Psalm 109:3-8<\/a>, which calls for God&#8217;s judgment against false accusers.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>In <a href=\"https:\/\/www.biblestudytools.com\/acts\/1-20.html\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Acts 1:20<\/a>, the apostle Peter cited the same passage from Psalms when applying to Judas Iscariot.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-media-max-width=\"560\">\n<p dir=\"ltr\" lang=\"en\">Happy Holy Week!
