God Almighty has often used flawed but strong men for His purposes. Empowering such men with His might in the face of pure evil and for His Glory.

Thumbs up for 1 thru 4, which I have read so far. I tried reading this article again to make some sense that I could relate to. It is not there. Pres Donald Trump is not the person I need to work at forgiving. It is the author and those like him, who are so pretentious with their implied righteousness, that need forgiving by God. They are willing to vote for the communist democrat party which is attempting to destroy this Republic. And for what reason? I do not forgive their jealous treachery and betrayal of this country that God has blessed from it’s founding. A personal pox on all of them.

Passing, no; posing, yes.

I so agree. For decades Marxists use the “faith” of good Americans to manipulate them.

President Trump doesn’t need to be forgiven. I know plenty of Democrats who may need to be, however, I want justice first.

I cannot stand these types of Christians. The phony ones. The ones who insist that certain thing are in the Bible which are not and categorically deny passages which are in there but since it does t fit their myopic viewpoint, decide to make edits like the words aren’t there on paper.

They also claim that the Creator of the Old Testament is t the same as the New Testament. That Jesus is god n the New Testament.

They are also the most judge mental persons with a type of superiority complex that iam sure is detailed in the DSM-R.

They say they’re republican but act and speak like democrats.

I’m glad your faith tells you this. While my faith with god would probably be considered heretical to many, I don’t take the approach that it was gods will that our president is Donald Trump. I merely see a man who is wealthy enough to understand the moneylenders in the legislative branch we’re going to come after his wealth and would leave him as penniless as those who live on the street. He has enough money to play their game so he decides to fight back. What better way to fight than in the executive branch,he has the judicial and military at his disposal. He is just getting his ducks in a row.

While it’s fully understandable why many see this as divine Intervention, god hasn’t needed to help him yet. Why help someone who walks the path of truth? The vermin In the legislative are morons. Doesn’t matter what degrees they have. We saw several years ago that the Ivy League sells degrees. While the families of the politicians have been inbreeding with themselves since before the civil war. That form of eugenics program is sure to stifle their intelligence as well as weird health issues. Everything they throw at Mr Donald are lies which have no basis in facts just mere projections coming from their side. Why would god intervene? Now once everything comes out and their side decides it wants to fight back, if there are many Innocent survive who otherwise would have been in crossfire, or worse. I would then say god had a hand in that.

When the rebellion starts in early November I think Portland, Seattle,and Kenosha will be dwarfed in comparison. I would t doubt the dems trying to make a stand set off a nuke in an American city. I also would t doubt if one is not already in play. Brought and paid for by Soros.

Not disrespecting you, or your faith,but god is still watching the play out. It’s been too easy so far

What does DJT done as a public figure that requires forgiveness?
I don't know but he probably didn't rape any Choir boys and then have a bunch of holier than thou men in robes cover it up for him.

Trump has been pretty clear on his kid diddling policies from day one and he has been reliable in his practice of not permitting kid diddlers to remain under his employ. Catholic Church? Maybe not so much. Let he who is without a kid diddling priest under their employ cast the first stone.

well if you think it's “Classic sanctimony from Marxist passing as Christians”....Why post it? Especially with such a ridiculous title.

You would be correct in all of your thoughts the election of 2016 was a divine intervention and the election of 2020 will also be a divine intervention!!!

Trump has not sinned against me.

I have nothing to forgive him for.

a prudent decision considering the millions of people that would have gone into sheer panic?

Millions panicked over TOILET PAPER, for heaven's sake.

There could have been runs on banks, street riots, ...

Forgive him for what? Putting America first and being the best darn president of my lifetime? I didn’t need POTUS to tell me anything about the Virus—Video from China told me that it was either really dangerous or they were trying to scare us all to death.

Whatever DJT said to the nation, he’d also be telling our enemies. Initially, no one knew for sure-regardless of what was suspected. I knew all I needed to know soon enough.

Besides, the DemonKKKrats were lying through their teeth about everything and they have deliberately followed draconian and tyrannical policies. They deserve to be tarred and feathered.

Trump is bad because msm told me to believe Trump is bad!

How do I forgive someone that the msm tells me to hate!

Which god is that mouth breeder worshiping?

As for dissension in our country, that started way before Trump had an inkling of becoming president.

The left claims that it is only because of Trump that we have it and further infers things would be fine otherwise. The reality is that while this 'dissention' is directed at Trump it really is directed at us. Against what we all believe and hold dear. Core beliefs that strike at a way of life.

Guard with jealous attention the public liberty. Suspect everyone who approaches that jewel. Unfortunately, nothing will preserve it but downright force. Whenever you give up that force, you are inevitably ruined - Patrick Henry

The NCR is a leftist rag, full of the likes of James Martin, SJ, etc. but that said, I have never understood what they think Trump has done that is so evil.

I walk around my very liberal neighborhood in Florida and I see Biden signs next to signs (sometimes homemade) saying the most insane, hate-filled things about Trump, going all the way to wishing for his death. I honestly don’t know how they can be so full of hate, or why.

“Mike Leach talks about how he need to forgive President Donald Trump, even though it’s hard to do so.”

You don’t forgive people who did not sin against you.
