Hollywood Biden cheerleader Rob Reiner is once again pushing the left’s “Christian nationalism” boogeyman, saying conservative Christians who are politically active are “antithetical to the teachings of Jesus.”
Rob Reiner — who remains one of President Joe Biden’s biggest Hollywood fundraisers — spoke to Newsweek to promote the upcoming documentary God & Country, which Reiner produced.
“This movement that they have here seems completely antithetical to the teachings of Jesus,” Reiner said.
“Jesus was about peace and love and helping thy neighbor and those less fortunate than ourselves. And I thought that was something that we should all aspire to. So to me this movement is going totally opposite the teachings of Jesus.”

Thanks, Rob, but as a Christian, let me be perfectly clear and state in all Christian love that I don't care what you think. Who are you, not a Christian, to try to tell Christians what Christianity is supposed to look like? Buzz off.

If Jesus was here today, it would be the Rob Reiner types who would yell, "crucify Him!"

I'm not a theologian but if memory serves me, didn't Jesus say render unto Caesar what is Caesar's? He didn't say, Surrender to Ceasar. As to Jan 6, if Christians simple acquiesced to our goobernment and believed with Liberal like faith that goobernment is all powerful and the creator of all that is good, would not those Christians be worshiping a false God? Besides, I thought Trump was leading the storming of the Bastille, er, Capital, not Jesus.

Rob, you’re right, on a superficial level. Jesus DID preach love and peace. But if that’s all he did, he would not be much different than Ghandi, or Buddha, or any other “prophet.”
Rather he came as God, the Son, to offer Himself for our s i n s.
You leave out the sins part, Rob. It is after we accept His penalty for our sins and become reconciled to God we can have peace, harmony, love etc.
Rob, i think you need some further theology classes. I would be happy to talk with you.

Christian charity means using your own money to help others - - not using the power of government to confiscate money from one person - - and hand it to another.
Meathead, indeed!

Rob Reiner is a leftwing, non observant Jewish man. I think I'll not consider his views on Christians with a grain of salt. I have said this as long as I can remember, '' I certain Jesus was not a Republican and I'm convinced he was not a Democrat/socialist

A liberal Jew is lecturing me on how to be a Christian, a faith he has rejected and abhors.
Anyway, the Gospel of Christ also teaches accountability which liberals also abhor and never practice.

This is nothing more than an extreme partisan liberal Democrat trying to influence the election.
He is trying to curtail the Christian community vote for Republicans.
Do not be fooled as it's why they bring up abortion to remind certain voters they shouldn't support a particular candidate which then reduces the number of votes the Democrat needs to win.
Also, don't forget that The Democracy Integrity Project (TDIP) was a non profit that pumped out daily "research" briefings to prominent journalist and congressional staffers to keep the Russia "collusion" story alive.
TDIP was led by Daniel J. Jones, former FBI investigator, Clinton admin volunteer and top staffer to Sen. Diane Feinstein. They employed Fusion GPS co-founder Glenn Simpson and ex-British intelligence officer Christopher Steele who were behind the salacious and unverified Steele Dossier.
TDIP's financial backers included actor/director Rob Reiner and billionaire activist George Soros.

Robbie, who firebombs clinics that encourage not
aborting your baby? Defaces Catholic Churches? Tears down statues? Destroys businesses and property one entire summer? Lies? Cheats? Wasn’t it Peter Fonda who wanted a 10 year old Barron Trump locked in a cage with a pedophile? Those are your people, Reiner. Christians get imprisoned for praying at abortion clinics. So back off.

Generosity is giving freely of your own time or resources. Generosity is NOT voting to force everyone else to give freely of their time or resources.

Once again, a liberal telling OTHERS what to do, how to think. How come California is loosing population, Meathead? Isn't Gavin Newsome & his policies being a Christian when he allows drug addicts to shoot up in the open, to allow homeless encampments littered with feces & needles? Is THAT the kind of Christian that YOU like, Meathead?

Rob, during Jesus' life, did He speak as a Jew, or a Christian?
Rob, are you speaking to us as a Christian, or as a Jew?
Rob, what did he mean when the Apostle Paul, a "Hebrew of the Hebrews" in Romans 2:29 said, "No, a person is a Jew who is one inwardly; and circumcision is circumcision of the heart, by the Spirit, not by the written code. Such a person’s praise is not from other people, but from God."
Rob, what are your qualifications for even making such a statement?

I am sure the meathead is well qualified to speak on the teachings of Christ.
Meathead is all for killing babies and abortion. Maybe he should check his Bible again.

When the devil tempted Jesus in the desert, the Lord answered, “It is written….”(Matthew 4)
Rob Reiner talks about how the teachings of Christ “seem” to him.
But, it is written - “There is a way that seems right to a man,
But its end is the way of death.” (Proverbs 14:12)
Paul, an inspired apostle of Jesus Christ, explains why the natural man does not receive, or know the things of the Spirit of God, in 1 Corinthians 2. ”[T]hey are spiritually discerned”. and are foolishnessto him. (1 Corinthians 2:14)
The natural man thinks and speaks with the wisdom of the world about everything from the laws of liberty to the laws of nature, and beyond. Therefore, they continue to destroy what they say they are trying to save. The problem is that their “fundamental transformation” is away from God instead of toward Him.
But, true Christians recognize ”deceivers and the deceived”, and are not surprised by their persecutions. (2 Timothy 3)

Hey Rob...if you, as a Jew (or whatever you call yourself) are allowed to tell me, a Christian, how I am failing to measure up to orthodox Christianity, then you must allow me, as a Christian, to tell you how you are failing to measure up to orthodox Judaism.
