In an interview with the Tennessean, Jonathan Cain of the rock band Journey says that his wife, Paula White-Cain, is taking care of President Donald Trump’s soul (“He Kept Believin’: Journey’s Jonathan Cain on his wife, her role with Trump, and faith,” Tennessean, May 7, 2018). Paula was the chairperson of Trump’s evangelical advisory board and delivered the invocation at his inauguration. She claims to have had a vision in which God called her to preach and told her “that every time I opened my mouth and declared the Word of the Lord, there was a manifestation of His Spirit where people were either healed, delivered, or saved” (Shanye Lee, Holy Mavericks, pp. 107-128). Paula and her second husband, Randy White, were co-pastors of Without Walls International, a multi-location charismatic church in Tampa and Lakeland, Florida, but they divorced in 2007 and the church eventually folded. The couple blamed the divorce on the two different directions their lives were going (“Interruption during Megapastors’ Divorce Announcement,” Tampa Tribune, Aug. 23, 2007). Randy spent months commuting to Malibu, California, where he had a beachfront home, while Paula purchased a home in San Antonio, Texas, and was “oversight pastor” to the Family Praise Center. She also traveled frequently to New York City where she had a Trump Tower condo and conducted services at New Life by Design Empowerment Center as a motivational speaker. Currently Paula is “senior pastor” of New Destiny Christian Center in Apopka, Florida. In 2015, Paula married Jonathan Cain, the third marriage for both. After the wedding, she tweeted, “We’re so excited to share our wedding vows and celebration with our church family tonight.” Her “vows” must be something like, “I vow to remain married to you until I don’t want to remain married to you.” Of their marriage, Jonathan told the Tennessean, “What I was missing was the word. Paula brought me back to scripture…” At Unleashed 2016, Jonathan and Paula gave their testimonies and answered questions before Paula laid hands on people. Jonathan advised women that “if he [your husband] likes to watch porn, watch porn with him.” At this foolish, unscriptural statement, Paula laughed. We can’t fathom how any of this could be characterized as getting “back to Scripture,” but one thing is sadly true: Paula White exemplifies American Christianity today and is a fitting spiritual advisor to a president who has lived a very shameful moral life and expressed no public repentance. The grace these people preach is not the true grace of God; it is the “live according to your own lusts” Christianity prophesied in 2 Timothy 4:3-4. “For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine; but after their own lusts shall they heap to themselves teachers, having itching ears; And they shall turn away their ears from the truth, and shall be turned unto fables.”
