I shudder to think Bernie Sanders was a Presidential Candidate.
Todd Friel of Wretched Radio takes on Bernie Sanders’ rant biblically and logically below:
Senator Bernie need to hear about the ultimate Judge whom he would sit in the dock one day and face and what He has to say about Jesus:
Why are the [a]nations in an uproar
And the peoples devising a vain thing?
2 The kings of the earth take their stand
And the rulers take counsel together
Against the Lord and against His [b]Anointed, saying,
3 “Let us tear their fetters apart
And cast away their cords from us!”
4 He who [c]sits in the heavens laughs,
The Lord scoffs at them.
5 Then He will speak to them in His anger
And terrify them in His fury, saying,
6 “But as for Me, I have [d]installed My King
Upon Zion, My holy mountain.”
7 “I will surely tell of the [e]decree of the Lord:
He said to Me, ‘You are My Son,
Today I have begotten You.
8 ‘Ask of Me, and I will surely give the [f]nations as Your inheritance,
And the very ends of the earth as Your possession.
9 ‘You shall [g]break them with a [h]rod of iron,
You shall shatter them like [i]earthenware.’”
10 Now therefore, O kings, show discernment;
Take warning, O [j]judges of the earth.
11 [k]Worship the Lord with [l]reverence
And rejoice with trembling.
12 [m]Do homage to the Son, that He not become angry, and you perish in the way,
For His wrath may [n]soon be kindled.
How blessed are all who take refuge in Him!
(Psalms 2)
Good one, Jim! I love to listen to Todd Friel. Bernie Sanders’ disgust with Russell Vought’s “intolerance” reminds me of contemporary evangelicalism’s distaste for those who uncharitably point out that Catholicism’s doctrines aren’t biblical.
Your comment reminds me of a Christian political talk show years ago on my local Christian radio station. Everytime anyone even mentioned Catholicism, or even question it the caller suddenly “lost reception” or the host kept talking over the person and you never hear the caller again. I think there’s certainly legitimate issues with Roman Catholicism.

Thank you for this, Pastor Jim. The scriptures you have chosen fits this situation so well. It, indeed, says something about our culture that Bernie got so much support in his campaign for president. I would guess a very low percent (maybe 1%) of those supporting Bernie have ever lived under fascism or socialism. If they had for any length of time, they would be like the Romanians who experienced Nicolae Ceaușescu and his evil wife. They can tell you what 42 years of “Communist” rule looks and feels like. Oh, some things about these systems of government may sound good, but, in the end, the people revolt or are given little freedom.
Thanks Chris for reblogging this. You are right that Bernie Sanders’ supporters need to know the history of Stalin and USSR; they also need to see contemporary socialist states such as Venezuela….have you noticed how little the main stream media covers Venezuela’s crisis?
So many of my “Facebook friends” commented about this statement by B. Sanders. I knew that he was a socialist and how dangerous that is, but I didn’t know he felt so ferocious about Christians stating views about morality. I guess we can’t share our opinions anywhere if we ever plan on facing this guy in a public hearing. This is very sad. I hope this man never gets that close to the presidency ever again.
I hope that man never gets near the presidency again either. I hope and pray that the Christians in his would even be so bold as to preach and witness to him even more before its too late…
He does, indeed, need our Lord’s saving grace. Just like us, it is available to him through the grace of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. Bernie is lost until he bows his knee in service to our great God and King. Thank you for reminding me of Bernie’s eternal condition at the present. Only God can judge a person’s soul but this reaction by Sanders is evidence that the man is in severe trouble.
You’re welcome, Pastor Jim. I have noticed the little coverage that the Venezuela problem is getting. I think it is because so many journalists have never felt what the Romanians did in the late 1980s. In other words, they haven’t lived in a socialist system for any length of time and they don’t know how good they have it. All one has to do is talk to any Christian Romanian who was in or who had relatives in Romania during the “reign” of the totalitarian communist Nicolae Ceauşescu and his evil wife. You get a good idea of how bad it is to be in such a system. You’ve mentioned Stalin. He is another evil example.
I read somewhere today that some people don’t understand the realities of such evils until the boot hits their own bottom. I can’t remember who wrote this but it is so true.
Well said. I live in the heartland of Bernie support and we sometimes call people Sandanistas or Bernadines to reflect the fact that some of the thinking going on is really a bit scary.
You ma’am are the true counter-cultural revolutionary that Sanders fan claim they are but they are not by living in such Leftists’ strongholds.
Glad you posted this, I’ll be sharing it momentarily. The Freakishly Tall Todd Friel (per James White) made some excellent points in this video segment about postmodernism and its influence. Phil Johnson had a message about postmodernism that was very enlightening. It’s ironic that professing atheists tend to be leftist/liberal in politics, opposing almost everything that Christians uphold, taking a postmodern approach — but true postmodernism has no use for absolutes, atheists or Christians.
I’m thankful that Comrade Sanders or Shrillary Clinton is not in power. God spared us that judgement for a few years.
My favorite Cowboy,
You’re dead on with your point: “. It’s ironic that professing atheists tend to be leftist/liberal in politics, opposing almost everything that Christians uphold, taking a postmodern approach — but true postmodernism has no use for absolutes, atheists or Christians.”
Didn’t give Sanders much thought as a candidate personally during the election season. But when you mentioned that it is not Bernie Sanders that is the president that made me immensely glad he’s not in light of this recorded outlash by Sanders. Sanders is not the friendly ol’ compassionate Sanders that leftists make him out to be from this video. Not the airbrush version…
