Ditto here.
I agree. Alot of prayers...and this is the answer. But if God could use Abraham, David, Peter, and Paul (all highly imperfect people) for his cause, he can use Donald Trump for His purpose.
Donald Trump:
--Believed ObamaCare to be a big mistake for his country.
--Harry Reid was the prime mover for ObamaCare in the US Congress.
--Donald Trump was a contributor to Harry Reid's election.
--He donated to the campaign for Harry Reid, the prime advocate for ObamaCare in the US Congress.
--After it had passed the Senate (by one vote), Trump rewarded Reid with a check for his re-election campaign.
--He put his own interests ahead of the nation, and for what, 30 pieces of Trump silver.
--That's a strange definition of "patriotism."
All people running for office say things like "make America great again", Republican, Democrat, Independents, and they are just words.
There are many things one can say about a man who publicly mocks the service of American POWs who were tortured.
--But "he's a 'patriot'" is not one of them.
I love this guy. Wayne Allyn Root that is. He can deliver a speech/sermon. This is a guy you want on your side.
I agree with him. Especially that his dog has more character than Paul Ryan.
God uses whom He chooses and they are usually not saints. Has God raised up Trump for this occasion, at this time? I think He has.
I hope Trump is up to the task. I think he is.
“There are many things one can say about a man who publicly mocks the service of American POWs who were tortured.”
Do you really believe that, or are you just trying to deceive?
Just one.
Amen
I vote “trying to deceive”.
That’s 2 - 0.
Long time no see, btw.
Hope you enjoy your life under Hillary then.
I left for about a year.... drawn back like a moth to a candle - had to come back!
Best article I read in past I don’t know how long!!!!!
I’ve been thinking the same thing since I watched his first rally speech. Why would he want the job and his answer was because he LOVES this country and hates what is happening to it.
He feels the same as me, and with our help he can try to fix what is wrong. At least he isn’t trying to make it worse like Hillary.
America 1st, let’s make America great again...for OUR children and grandchildren, NOT for the Chinese or other bloodsucking countries.
Re: “And losing again would mean the end of America. And God can’t allow that.” . . . I was reading the Bible this morning and I found the perfect verse that explains the success of Donald Trump…”Even the youths shall faint and be weary, And the young men shall utterly fall, But those who wait on the Lord Shall renew their strength;They shall mount up with wings like eagles,They shall run and not be weary,They shall walk and not faint.” (Isiah 40:30-31). It’s almost like God created this verse for Donald Trump and this moment in history.”
First, I am definitely voting for Trump. There is no alternative.
Having said that, it troubles me when people begin to make presumptions upon God. I am a Christian, too. And, it may be that everything the writer has said regarding Trump being a leader that God has sent us for “such a time as this” is true. But, here’s my point:
I don’t think we can presume that God “can’t allow” America to fall. I pray that He doesn’t, but looking at the sins of our nation, is it really out of the realm of possibility that that He might allow that very thing?
Second, applying the Isaiah 40 passage in the way the writer did is way, way out of context. The point of the passage is those who wait on the “Lord” shall renew their strength - those who wait on the “Lord” shall mount up like eagles.
I hope and pray that Donald Trump does “wait” on the Lord - which is another way of saying “trust, walk, live by and act in faith” in God. Which is what we are ALL supposed to do. Only God knows the answer to that when it comes to Trump.
I’m not trying to be a stick in the mud, I just think it’s setting oneself up for disappointment and disillusionment to place one’s hope in a single, human person, rather than in God alone. Absolutely vote and support Donald Trump - I am, but we must not forget where our help comes from no matter what happens in November. As the Scriptures say:
“Do not put your trust in princes, Nor in a son of man, in whom there is no help. His spirit departs, he returns to his earth; In that very day his plans perish. Happy is he who has the God of Jacob for his help, Whose hope is in the Lord his God, Who made heaven and earth, The sea, and all that is in them; Who keeps truth forever, Who executes justice for the oppressed, Who gives food to the hungry. The Lord gives freedom to the prisoners.” Psalm 146:3-7.
It may very well be that Donald Trump is a row boat sent by God to help us. But, our true problem is not political, but spiritual. If conservatives win every single election this fall, that would not resolve our national spiritual sickness. It goes far deeper than an election - it is a problem in the very soul of our nation. We need spiritual renewal.
I hope and pray Donald Trump wins, and that excellent people are elected to congress to help him turn the country back towards a Godly and constitutional republic. Who knows? God may be merciful yet again though we certainly don’t deserve it. But, no matter what happens - God is still there and will not be mocked. He still has the ultimate sovereign say over this universe.
I’ve said it before, but I’ll say it again: “Cometh the hour, cometh the man.”
purty much nails it!
