If Newt wins the nomination, he will be our next President as I can see the Divine Hand in all of these.
Early last year, Newt walked all along on the campaign trail, no followers, no press, no reporters, even no campaign manager, no staff, operated out of his rental car. His campaign manager left him because he paid no attention on fund raising or organization. He believed he could win with his speeches of ideas alone.
Newt still found time to attend Mass to fulfill his obligation on one Monday which was designated as the Day of Obligation while most cradle-Catholics who voted for Obama would not remember what it was! Newt is a convert to Catholicism and the fact he made time to go to Mass on a weekday on the campaign trail spoke volume about him.
I really believe that Newt is a changed man, a repentant sinner, who is very confident that he can restore the beauty of our country and he really believes if he is put into that capacity with his blessed talent and strength, it is God’s plan, God’s doing, not his.
The evil side was afraid of him, so they buried him with 96% of their dirty ads in Iowa, on Newt alone. Santorum worked very hard, almost like with superhuman strength as he walked all over Iowa soil to “almost” win the first republican caucus. (Later, they corrected that Santorum won by 34 votes over Romney when they needed to build him up to replace Newt to face Romney.)
Newt lost New Hampshire to no one’s surprise. The anointed front runner Romney just barely won Iowa, now won New Hampshire, was predicted to shoe in in South Carolina and went on to win the nomination. But SC was the first stop against the liberal force, the dark side. Newt started his southern strategy here and won big, shocking the whole establishment and Romney camp. They would not let it being repeated in Florida. They went all out in all fronts to destroy Newt with false ads, with Drudge Report, with all exaggerated or false recalling form different republican politicians about Newt character and philosophy, about his step-down from Congress. The fault that he committed in Congress was peanut compared to what is going on with ALL politicians especially ones in DC. He spent $50,000 of his campaign chest to fund a political course or study on campus if I remembered correctly. Later this accusation was tossed out by the court as what he did was completely legal. He created so many enemies as he was brilliant but arrogant.
After losing Florida, Newt decided to take a break in campaigning to regroup for Super Tuesday as he ran out of cash and strength. Santorum remain as the lone anti-Romney candidate and with the help of MSM and the liberal dark side, they made him the winner of Iowa caucus. With hard work Santorum went on to win in Missouri, Minnesota, and Colorado. Newt had become a distant memory. The enemies planned this out because they wanted to divide the Republican Party and to put Newt away for good while he withdrew from campaigning. That was a mistake on Newt part but it turned out to be destined as Santorum was needed to stop Romney while Newt regrouped. Santorum emergence was necessary so that the conservative republicans who were undecided about Newt could have an outlet instead of most or half went to Romney. Santorum is needed to take a big chunk of delegates from Romney. Newt could not stop Romney alone; he needed Santorum whether or not he liked it or knew so or not. And this is still true today. We need both to siphon enough delegates from Romney to prevent him from reaching the threshold of 1,144 delegates for the nomination.
Now Newt focuses on Alabama and Miss, then Texas to win all southern states convincingly, as he did in Georgia. And he will win some Eastern states which are more independent-minded after April 1st. Romney cannot afford to lose any of these states which allocate their delegates by winner-take-all basis.
At the end, Romney will not have 1,144 delegates and we will come to the brokered convention which will provide the format, the forum that Newt loves dear. There will be no more untrue ads, no more campaigning; the MSM will be forced to cover Newt’s speeches and ideas, giving him full national exposure. This forum will also expose the insincerity and flip-flop of Romney, will reveal that Santorum is deserved to be Newt’s under-study for now. He might be a great leader some day but not now.
Now is Newt’s time. Newt will bring them up to their feet at the convention with standing ovations and hopes.
Newt is our last hope!
You don’t want me to address Santorum in that way and I CERTAINLY could.
Stand down or I will be nasty. I am tired of this.
Point.
But which man does he agree with and support?
Me, or the guy who disagrees with me, and is God choosing to reveal it to us during our 70 years, or to let it unfold over the next 1,000, or 50,000 thousand years?
Are you the perfect Christian?
Are you the perfect Christian?
“But which man does he agree with and support?”
***************
Who God? I should think he supports all of us, right or wrong. Agreement? I am not so sure. We are all but human, so I doubt he agrees with any of us. We are weak and fallible, He is strong and perfect.

I don’t think He agrees with any of us. We are to agree with him. He will reveal Himself to us when we seek Him, right now and in this very second.
That’s the catch 22—free will. He is the ever vigilant parent who lets us muddle our way through and sits back silent and doesn’t let us know He has reached down and touched us.
We must each figure it out on our own as best I can determine. But He is always there waiting...
I don’t go to church but I do read the bible and I do believe, this is the understanding I have come to. It may be different for you.
Phew. I guess I am too tired—say night Gracie.
I was reading through and was saw an I**** but it was leenie312, not Irenic.
That makes me pretty self-centered, sorry ‘bout that.
If it is important, then please put it in your own language.
I guess that’s a yes, thanx
Good article—I agree.
“They went all out in all fronts to destroy Newt with false ads, with Drudge Report, with all exaggerated or false recalling form different republican politicians about Newt character and philosophy”
Yes, and they used Rush Limbaugh. Used. And they still do.
God has satan on a leash, which He loosens at times.
I will vote for whoever is ahead, Newt or Rick. Will you?
Neither is a saint and this piece is ridiculous at best.
“I’m curious, did you see the Divine Hand in Obamas’ election?”
Yes, it’s called “Judgement”.
Why would God do that?
Great reply..
Feel better?

To paraphrase Pascal, "God has His reasons that reason knows nothing of."
Yes, I see Divine Hand off because of our collective sins. We have abandoned Him, so He abandons us to our own choosing.
You want to turn our country around? Pray, that is the only answer.
The term” Divine Plan” implies all of us are instruments in God’s Hand, Newt is no exception. He is my last hope given by God. I hope I am not wrong by saying so.
He has said, if he knew for certain that Santorum would be able to beat Romney, and then Obama, he would withdraw. And I believe he meant it.
Whether you ultimately believe it or not, your question about my comments contains the presupposition that God exists.
Specifically, my comments refer to the God of the Christian Bible. Now, either this God exists or not. But remember, the context of our discussion assumes God exists; we are not arguing the question of divine existence, but the nature of God’s will.
To have this discussion, we both must have adequate knowledge and understanding of the Bible. I assume you would not refute this basic convention of intellectual dialogue.
The Christian God is known by Christian doctrine to have a Divine will and plan. The Bible teaches that God allows the prince of this world to have limited powers at specific times, according to God’s will.
As you can see, the answer to your question is that it is God’s will.
Again—when discussing these things we must think clearly. This will help us to distinguish and to focus separately on different matters. Oftentimes, the human mind becomes confused between questions pertaining to Divine existence and questions about the nature of God’s will. This sort of confusion hinders the pursuit of truth.
“God has His reasons that reason knows nothing of.”
This is the right answer.
