President Trump stated at the White House Easter lunch, "I'm delighted to join the countless Christians across the country and around the world as we prepare to celebrate a thing we call 'Happy Easter.'" The president said that Jesus "had not come to take a throne but to carry a cross, not only to reign, but to save." He continued, "The Son of God was nailed to the Cross, crucified, and He died. ... It was not the end. On Easter Sunday, the stone was rolled away and the grave was empty. Christians everywhere rejoiced, and we continue to rejoice." |
