Firestorm erupts over Trump's 'Bible connection'
WND ^ | Joe Kovacs

Posted on 08/11/2015 10:43:47 AM PDT by RoosterRedux

A Christian minister in Florida has ignited a firestorm over his suggestion that God is using Donald Trump as a divine instrument in the 2016 presidential election cycle.

In a column published in Charisma magazine, Jeremiah Johnson of Behold the Man Ministries in Lakeland, Florida, said he was praying several weeks ago “when God began to speak to me concerning the destiny of Donald Trump in America:”

The Holy Spirit spoke to me and said, “Trump shall become My trumpet to the American people, for he possesses qualities that are even hard to find in My people these days. Trump does not fear man nor will he allow deception and lies to go unnoticed. I am going to use him to expose darkness and perversion in America like never before, but you must understand that he is like a bull in a china closet.

Many will want to throw him away because he will disturb their sense of peace and tranquility, but you must listen through the bantering to discover the truth that I will speak through him. I will use the wealth that I have given him to expose and launch investigations searching for the truth. Just as I raised up Cyrus to fulfill My purposes and plans, so have I raised up Trump to fulfill my purposes and plans prior to the 2016 election.

You must listen to the trumpet very closely for he will sound the alarm and many will be blessed because of his compassion and mercy. Though many see the outward pride and arrogance, I have given him the tender heart of a father that wants to lend a helping hand to the poor and the needy, to the foreigner and the stranger.”

Trump says he does not ask god for forgiveness, he can forgive himself.

I don’t think Trump is God’s candidate

I’m sure some immortal being is probably using trump. I don’t think you’ve got the right one, however.

The sound of a trumpet is a sound of blessing? Not every time.

Trump...trumpet. Nice play on words.

I’d steer clear of any preacher who claims to know what God is doing.

I thought the only sound we heard in the debate was the sound of the strumpet; is that close enough?

That is his opinion and he is entitled to it. At least he is not damning America or cutting people’s head’s off because they won’t convert to his religion. Why this trashing of Christianity??

Churchill admitted the same thing about his religious beliefs, so that would have disqualified him from being PM of Britain?

I understand being for another candidate, but really, to just lie?

I’m not going to say who is and isn’t hearing from the Lord. Just isn’t my place. And I certainly haven’t heard from the Lord anything concerning Donald Trump.

In the Bible, the Lord used several non-Jewish leaders to both punish and support his people. Cyrus, as mentioned, but also Nebuchadnezzar, the Pharaoh that took in Joseph, Xerxes, and Festus were leaders that were used by God to fulfill his purpose although they did not worship him.

1. This is a term used by the people of the southern United States particularly near the Gulf of Mexico to express to someone that they are an idiot without saying such harsh words.

Yes, If Trump is here to destroy the republican party, then by all means, let it be done.

FYI: WND publishes all kinds of columns from all sides of the issues. Don't you even know that?

Do not bash Freepers for believing in God.
