Has Donald J. Trump become a born-again Christian? That is the suggestion of James Dobson, one of America’s leading evangelicals, who said Mr. Trump had recently come “to accept a relationship with Christ” and was now “a baby Christian.”

Mr. Dobson, the founder of Focus on the Family and one of the country’s most prominent social conservatives, gave his account at a meeting Mr. Trump had in New York on Tuesday with hundreds of evangelicals.

In an interview recorded at the event by a Pennsylvania pastor, Michael Anthony, Mr. Dobson said he knew the person who led Mr. Trump to Christ, though he did not name him.

“I don’t know when it was but it has not been long,” Mr. Dobson says. “I believe he really made a commitment, but he’s a baby Christian.”
