-- And It's Not Politics

Lately, I’ve heard a common theme expressed by many seasoned Republican political activists bewildered by what they are witnessing: “I can’t understand the depth of hatred for President Trump. Yes, he can make controversial statements that seem politically naive or unpolitic, but the obsession of removing him from office seems unnatural.”

It seems unnatural because it is.

Holy Scripture teaches in Ephesians 6: “Put on the whole armor of God, that you may be able to stand against the assaults of the devil. For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against powers, against principalities, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.”

In 21st century America, we rarely think about the spiritual, but it is only by understanding the spiritual realm that we can come to grips with the sickness that ails our country.

I have a new friend who has helped to further my understanding of what is really happening. His name is Jim Stockstill. Jim is a former Marine, a businessman with an MBA, a Trump supporter, and a born-again follower of Jesus. He is also the leader of the National War Council.

By “war,” Jim isn’t referring to war here on earth, though he was familiar with combat as a Marine. Jim is focused on spiritual warfare, and his tools are prayer, prophecy and the teaching of Scripture.

He has helped me and countless others to understand that if we ignore this spiritual dimension, we are helpless against the devil’s plans for America.

At our founding, America was a devout nation. The most popular school book for most of America’s history was the Bible. It was taught at school and at home. Citizens therefore had an understanding of the ideas behind our Constitution and Declaration of Independence.

In the aftermath of the Supreme Court’s 1962 ruling removing prayer in school, the Bible has been replaced by teaching sex education in schools, while at the same time, America and her citizens have drifted far from God.

This separation from God has increased violence, hatred and division. It is all predicted in Scripture: “The coming of the lawless one is by the activity of Satan with all power and false signs and wonders, and with all wicked deception for those who are perishing, because they refused to love the truth and so be saved.”

This gets me full circle to what is happening today. President Trump has tried his best to deal with the chaos that is the result of our distance from Jesus.

For one thing, he has appointed judges committed to the U.S. Constitution. The Constitution is hated today because it is written according to timeless truths articulated in Holy Scripture. President Trump has done his best to restore justice and to protect citizens from the growing lawlessness and unrest.

To really restore our republic, we need to restore our own commitment to a personal relationship with Jesus Christ. Only through the power of Christ living through us can we see the type of restoration, kindness, and — dare I say — love, that will unite and knit our people back together.

If you want to see a restoration of the U.S. Constitution and America, it will require you to take personal action.

At this time of lawlessness, I am praying for personal and national redemption through the power of repentance and belief in Jesus Christ.

I have worked in politics and journalism for over 40 years, and I know now more than ever, these problems are beyond political resolution: We need Divine intervention.

I'll tell you what's not only unnatural, but downright creepy...the slavish devotion and inability to ever criticize a single thing he has done. It's not human for anyone to be as perfectly divine as trump is in the eyes of his followers.

Those round circles of cabinet members praising trump for the incredible honor of being a part of his brilliance was gag inducing.

We got divine intervention, and god gave us Covid so the country could see how badly trump could botch a response that should have been vastly more competent for the greatest nation in the world that had only to follow how South Korea did it. We got rid of a worse blight on this country than Covid is...and it seems like it took divine intervention to escape the fantasies of a military coup trump had in mind.

Had trump really been half as brilliant as he thinks he is, he could have done it.

Our founders abhorred democracy. Obviously, that is why the word never appears in OUR Constitution.
Hate poisons only the hater. Like you are drinking poison hoping the object of your hate will die.

85% of the people on earth are religious, one third of whom are Christians; atheists like you are a significant minority.

You most definitely did not appeal to God for "divine intervention", nor did you receive it. Out of your own ignorance and subjective socio-pathic obsession, you are mocking God even hinting at such a thing.

Hypocrite!

In this country, which is all that matters, christians have become a minority, people don't care, and they don't want to hear about the bible brought into government.

I reject the idea of muslim or any other religious principles ever being brought into laws and government, and that includes the bible.

If you who are such a believer believe in the almighty power of god, how could he in his wisdom turned such an evil and incompetent person as trump on the country? And I will stick to my belief that it took Covid and a truly epic level of incompetence and unnecessary deaths to cost trump the election.

Had he simply listened to experts, supported guidance that was proven to work in other countries, let FEMA and other top level people do their jobs without running a shadow agenda of incompetence and obstruction, he would be president.

Blade: I must make a correction on your comment. The correct word is "insignificant" minority.

LOL You need to do a little research before you embarrass yourself with diarrhea of the mouth. But then again, you have never let facts get in the way of your tirades.

70% of Americans identified as Christian
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Christianity_in_the_United_States

The U.S. remains a largely Christian nation, with over three-quarters of Americans identifying as Protestant, Catholic or Mormon.
https://news.gallup.com/poll/180347/three-quarters-americans-identify-christian.aspx

Nearly eight-in-ten black Americans (79%) identify as Christian, according to Pew Research Center's 2014 Religious Landscape Study. By comparison, seven-in-ten Americans overall (71%) say they are Christian, including 70% of whites, 77% of Latinos and just 34% of Asian Americans.

If you can actually read, I suggest you try very hard to comprehend what you read.

You are in no position to question God's wisdom while at the same time imagining God intervened on your behalf.
You are consumed with a hubris completely void of logic and reason.

This is not about the Bible being brought into government, or establishing a Christian theocracy.

This is not politics, it is spiritual, and if you ignore the spiritual nature of mankind in favor of your own subjective opinions, you are rejecting the most profound influence on human existence. Not to mention committing the unforgivable sin of Blaspheming the Holy Spirit.

Or if he had any smarts at all, he would have figured out a way to stay in power. He was to much of a coward (or lazy, probably swung by Mickey D's) to march with his supporters on Jan 6th. The outcome of the vote count might have been a lot different if he had.

Why do you (and many others) assume that in a country where freedom to practice religion is guaranteed, you & others always quote some religious gibberish as if that's the answer to everything. At the same time, you & others worship the most un-Christian president of all times.

Why do you (and many others) assume that in a country where freedom to practice religion is guaranteed, you & others always tell us we are irrational fools for our belief in something infinitely greater than ourselves, all the while assuming that religion has no place in the affairs of men, when 85% of the world population are religious and for so many of them, their faith is the foundation of their lives?

A Hebrew shepherd boy, anointed by God to be the First King of Israel, was an adulterer, a murderer, and a polygamist, he had 7 wives and dozens of mistresses and slaves. Kind David founded the Kingdom of Israel and Judea 3000 years ago.

The things you don't know about religion, the Bible in particular, are astronomical in number. The meta-narratives, the over-arching story, the Paradigm, the archetypes, the templates, the mysteries, the prophesies - of all of this, you have no clue.

Donald Trump's faith or lack of it had nothing to do with supporting him.
I know of no one who worships him.

Of course he did. That's what all the Moon Men say.

I seldom see such idiotic statements as this. Dumbest of the day so far!
