“The puzzling trend that has some evangelicals jumping on the Donald Trump bandwagon is puzzling to me. “
If it did not puzzle him, would he think it was a puzzling trend?
I think Donald Trump, despite the fact he is a sinner, as we all are, was raised up by God to tell us that He (God) can save this country if we the people turn from our sinful ways. I think that God has given Mr. Trump the “stiff forehead” and stout heart that he needs to withstand the onslaught of vicious evil that is coming his way, that is only going to get worse.
I think God is doing this for us, showing us this last grace, because He knows much of the wickedness we are seeing in this nations is being forced upon us by very wicked leadership, despite the fact, that we tried to stop this with the last 3 elections to no avail. Now He has given us this tough guy to stand up to the left and to the people on the right who we elected to do this task, and who betrayed us. But it is up to us whether Trump will succeed or not. We do have to turn away and reject all of this evil, even the parts of it that we may like.
God would not raise up a Canadian or Cuban to this. God gave us our constitution, and He would not give us a leader who by his very existence as a leader would violate our constitution any further. God will restore our constitution if we let Him by again remembering that we are one of the two nations who made a covenant with Him, and keep to the ways our forefathers promised Him that we would.
The hand of God is not upon Ted Cruz. I think it was until he made this disastrous and unconstitutional decision to run for president.
Anyway, this is how I see it. I am a sinner, my sins are akin to those of Donald Trump. I also believe I am a Christian, I certainly take my faith quite seriously, and this is what I think.
Probably the aftereffects of Stokes stroking out over the 0 for 50 drubbing Cruz got in "heavily evangelical" South Carolina...
They say it tends to scramble your brain a little bit... :)
