No God will NOT deliver us from the coup. That isn’t even biblically sound. In the new covenant he isn’t shooting lightning bolts to save us here in the temporal world. That the basic concept of free will.
Think there weren’t millions of Christians in 1918 Russia praying as hard as they could? Syrian Christians as ISIS rolled into town? That preacher and his wife in the trunk of the car praying, singing and blessing their kidnapper before he shot em in the head and burned them? (killer executed this week)
Christians in life rafts, Max-8 737s in a death dive, etc.
God protects their soul, not so much their corpus delecti here in earth. “Jesus take the wheel” is a truly insane song”.
Exactly! God didn’t save the c b Russians from the roasting pits and fromm being boiled alive, and fed to wild animals for sport either, despite their prayers. He did however give them grace to endure it.
We don’t know what God’s plans are for the US. He may deliver us and expose the corruption and restore this country to the mostly moral0 nation it once w a s, or He might not. Just because someone has a gut feeling about something doesn’t mean its gonna happen the way they want it to.
I wonder how the Christians who watched their loved ones being roasted over a pit of fire prayed? What they prayed for? I’ll bet it was God Your will be done, give us the grace to accept Your will no matter what You decide. If we must go to the grave, we will do so believing in AND SERVING you still.
,because our faith doesn’t rely on only good things happening to us at al times. We trust You Lord to preserve our soul no matter what You decide.
Exactly! Imagine the doomed Christians throughout the ages that prayed they be saved from their evil doers, and were not.
I never understood people willingly going to the slaughter, such as the Holocaust Jews allowing themselves to be herded up, packed in cattle cars and marched into gas chambers.
By the same token I do not understand FReepers here willing to throw in the towel and just move on because they think it’s over. I’d just hate like hell to be in a war zone with any such people.
