Pastor claims Barron Trump is 'very close' to embracing Christianity
Share and Follow

A prominent pastor associated with the MAGA movement has disclosed that Barron Trump, son of former President Donald Trump, is on the brink of fully embracing his Christian faith. This revelation came after a late-night phone conversation with the 19-year-old.

Stuart Knechtle, a 37-year-old pastor and influencer, shared insights from his chat with Barron during his appearance on The George Janko Podcast. Knechtle recounted his experience of discussing faith with the youngest Trump.

“I had a phone conversation with Barron Trump at half-past midnight, and I was throwing everything at him regarding evidence for God and Christianity,” Knechtle explained. “I was really in the zone and energized,” he continued. “But by the end of it, I felt like I had come up empty-handed.”

Nonetheless, Knechtle remains optimistic, asserting that the towering 6-foot-9 teen is “very close” to committing to Christianity. This optimism stems from a final attempt where Knechtle presented Barron with “evidence” involving dreams and revelations, hoping to guide him towards faith.

However, Knechtle claimed the 6ft 9in teenager is ‘very close’ to putting his faith in Christ after he made a last ditch effort to persuade him using ‘evidence’ of dreams and revelations. 

‘I brought up dreams and revelations and I said, “Hey, look, Baron, I usually don’t go by this typically with as evidence, but I’ll just let lastly you know this,”‘ he said.

‘I have a friend over in Africa who witnesses thousands of Muslims coming to Christ through dreams and revelations. How do you explain that? [Barron’s] like, “Oh, that’s a very, very interesting point. And you have eyewitness testimony.” 

‘You know, the way his mind works, it’s like that was the only thing that stuck with him and he’s very close to putting his faith in Christ. Very close. And so I pray that goes through.’

In Christianity, dreams and revelations are divine messages from God which provide believers with guidance, prophecy, warnings or confirmation.

Barron, who has kept a low profile since his father took office for the second time, has never publicly commented on religion or any beliefs that he may hold. 

As an infant, Barron was baptized at the Episcopal Church of Bethesda-by-the-Sea in Palm Beach, Florida, the same church where his parents got married.

His father identifies as a nondenominational Christian, while his mother, Melania Trump, is Catholic, although neither are regular churchgoers. 

At the National Christmas Tree lighting on Thursday night, the president said that ‘religion is coming back to the USA.’

Trump and the First Lady kicked off the holiday season with the 103rd National Christmas Tree Lighting Ceremony on the Ellipse lawn.

A military band played and Christmas tunes and familiar hymns came over the overhead system while bundled attendees mulled about the few thousand seats just south of the executive mansion.

The ceremony had a solemn moment when the president paid his respects to the two National Guard soldiers shot last week just blocks from the White House.

‘I want to pay my highest respects to those two great Guardsmen,’ Trump said. He also offered wishes for the soldier recovering, ‘Andrew is hopefully getting better. He got hit hard defending us. And I just want to pay my respects to them, two incredible people, unbelievable people.’

The president quickly dove into Biblical scripture, specifically the book of John, noting the roots of the holiday.

‘Tonight, this beautiful evergreen tree glows bright on the dark and cold winter night and reminds us of the words of the gospel of John, “In him was life, and that life was the light of all mankind.” Beautiful words,’ Trump said.

But all religions are to be celebrated, the Republican quickly noted.

‘We love the Christians. We love all religions. And by the way, religion is coming back to the USA, you see that very strongly,’ the Republican noted to applause.
