I believe that there is a real possibility that Wednesday, January 20, 2021, God might offer to Trump a type of PALM SUNDAY, which will help to spiritually wake up and lead back to God many people. But shortly afterwards there will be the CRUCIFIXION. Those who pray and live their prayer (“THY will be done”, not “MY will be done”), will receive the grace of final perseverance in this period of the purification of the Church (CCC 675-677), and of the “great tribulation” (Mt 24:21) so as to arrive to the eternal RESURRECTION (Zech 13:7-9).

The Church's ultimate trial
675 Before Christ's second coming the Church must pass through a final trial that will shake the faith of many believers. [573] The persecution that accompanies her pilgrimage on earth [574] will unveil the “mystery of iniquity” in the form of a religious deception offering men an apparent solution to their problems at the price of apostasy from the truth. the supreme religious deception is that of the Antichrist, a pseudo-messianism by which man glorifies himself in place of God and of his Messiah come in the flesh. [575]
676 The Antichrist's deception already begins to take shape in the world every time the claim is made to realize within history that messianic hope which can only be realized beyond history through the eschatological judgement. the Church has rejected even modified forms of this falsification of the kingdom to come under the name of millenarianism, [576] especially the “intrinsically perverse” political form of a secular messianism. [577]
677 The Church will enter the glory of the kingdom only through this final Passover, when she will follow her Lord in his death and Resurrection. [578] The kingdom will be fulfilled, then, not by a historic triumph of the Church through a progressive ascendancy, but only by God's victory over the final unleashing of evil, which will cause his Bride to come down from heaven. [579] God's triumph over the revolt of evil will take the form of the Last Judgement after the final cosmic upheaval of this passing world. [580]

There is no “get off of earth free” card. As in free from persecution.
nope
LOL Are you agreeing, or disagreeing with me?
It’s called The Great Awkening.
And, next to Christ’s Resurrection, it’s going to the greatest event in the history of the world.
agreeing!
God promised to be with us. He never promised that life on this earth would be paradise. no “get out of jail” tickets here.
I am hoping you are right. Because one of the fundamental strategies of Satan is to lure us to sleep spiritually. If Biden becomes president without this “Awakening” many will remain asleep spiritually until hell.
But we must be realistic as my post indicated.
I hope this awakening happens, but if it does, the enemy has much power due to the fact that there is more sin and less prayer than ever before. And thus if the awakening occurs, I think Trump will be soon afterwards assassinated. Then Pope Benedict will be assassinated and we will be totally under the NWO worldwide by April 2021.
We will see.
Prayer and living our prayer is the fundamental solution!
I agree.
Many so called Christians believe or are hoping for an EASY solution for themselves or for the USA and the world. Many of these Christians believe that God will “rapture” them up to heaven before the “great tribulation” (Mt 24:21) so they do not have to suffer with the rest of us and with Jesus Christ. This rapture theory did not exist before 1830 with John Nelson Darby. But true Christians know that we must suffer with Christ in this period of the purification of the Church and the world (“Catholic Prophecy Today”; https://markbeast.blogspot.it/). History shows us, including the Old Testament, that after the people of God strayed from the path of God, there was much suffering before the people of God repented and returned to God and changed their lives. Eternity is far more important than this short life!
