The senior pastor of the massive 14,000-member First Baptist Church in Dallas, told Fox Business Friday that Republican lawmakers aren’t guaranteed to win with the support of U.S. evangelicals, who make up about 22.5 percent of the country’s population. But, he cautioned, “they are guaranteed a loss” as former GOP presidential candidate Mitt Romney “learned” in 2012.
“God has given us the privilege in this Christian nation of choosing our leaders,” Jeffress, who is also a Fox News contributor, told host Lou Dobbs. “By our vote we are choosing the moral and spiritual direction of our country and not to vote is a sin against God and a sin against this country.”
“The good news is, people of faith are turning out in this election at unprecedented levels,” Jeffress said. In 2019, the pastor declared that all evangelicals not supporting Trump are “spineless morons.”
