Mike Huckabee Tells Hispanic Evangelicals U.S. Is Losing Its Way
Source: The Wall Street Journal
Mike Huckabee, a likely presidential candidate, made an impassioned appeal to Hispanic evangelicals Wednesday with promises to protect life and religious liberty, telling them that he may not speak the same language but he shares the same faith.
I do not come to you tonight with the ability to speak Spanish, Mr. Huckabee, a Republican and former Arkansas governor, said during an appearance at the National Hispanic Christian Leadership Conference. But I do speak a common language. I speak Jesus.
Mr. Huckabee, who is expected to announce his bid for the Republican presidential nomination next week, told the group that the U.S. is losing its way and letting go of foundational values that were taken from scripture.
As he reached out to Hispanics, a voting bloc that GOP candidates have struggled to connect with, Mr. Huckabee cast himself as an Arkansas everyman who grew up having more in common with the kitchen staff than those seated at the head table.

(51,122 posts)The Bible changed over time due to translation 'drift' if not actually additions, deletions.
More importantly, Jesus appointed Peter to 'manage' the church. Essentially giving man the clerical duties of running the operation. Man and his outlook and needs change over time.
God gave us the 'keys' and the control. Things have changed significantly since the first century. Pretty sure you, never-will-be-president Huckabee, would have ended up staked and rotting in the sun, if not for Man's evolution.

What's the worst, the fact that he doesnt give damn about the authority of the Supreme Court, or that he thinks same-sex marriage is against Gods laws?
