Voted For Him....Celebrated....Fool Me Once....Not Twice
After reading this verse tonight I wanted to bring it to you for your consideration. It's from the book of Lamentations....(2:14)....(ESV)...."Your prophets have seen for you false and deceptive visions; they have not exposed your iniquity to restore your fortunes, but have seen for you oracles that are false and misleading."
Four additional years of the torment bordering on torture that Donald Trump loves to give everyone who does not bow down to him is unacceptable without at least trying to stop him. You call this Trump Derangement Syndrome....well let me tell you my story. I knew little of Donald Trump other than his boasting and his money and his wives. I not only voted for him but celebrated.....until almost immediately I saw there was a big problem here and that he was not who he said that he was. I started reading about him. I am just about up to sixty books now.....sixty books!!! It's so obvious now that it hurts. He's pulled this kind of scam his whole life. You think that he has accomplished a lot? I think that that boast could easily be dispelled but there is no avenue to challenge his claims to greatness. Talk radio drank the Kool-Aid and the mainstream media isn't going to challenge him on conservative issues
Some Democrats....and the rest of us either Republicans that can correctly be identified as Never-Trumpers....and those like myself who voted for Trump and celebrated....have known or now know who Donald Trump really is. This is a man with serious psychological disorders....a pathological narcissism unlike anything I have witnessed in my 69 years....a lifelong history of lying....where I'm convinced that Donald Trump in his own mind no longer can discern truth from lies....and a vengeance mechanism emanating from boundless self-adulation that kicks in immediately upon a perceived offense. We know that he has not only no ideology but no moral foundations. Therefore he has no real beliefs....and can easily go back and forth....and back and forth again and again if the political situation calls for it. So when we see a decision made as was made with the attack on the Iranian commander....we cannot possibly disassociate it from a man who has proved time and again to us that he can never be trusted. Just as the radical progressivism of today has become a severe judgment upon America....Donald Trump brings his own set of severe judgments from God upon conservatism....and evangelicalism....whose religion has become more flag than cross.
Concerning the Ukraine.....President Trump's favorite phrase is...."read the transcript." This morning as I was listening to a Charles Spurgeon sermon....while pushing myself on the treadmill....he used the phrase...."read the text".....referring to his biblical message. So my message in response to Donald Trump's "read the transcript" would be...."read the text".....the Bible text....the text of the Bible....that which you have ignored for your entire adult life....and so flippantly joke about. This is the Word of God that tells you right now that as of right now you will appear before Jesus Christ as one who mocks God on a daily and hourly basis....but Mr. President....God will not be mocked. This is the message that every one of these CEO ministry heads and megachurch pastors that flutter around you should be telling you....for you won't step foot in a church with a pastor who has not been vetted as to being totally inoffensive. I don't know who is fooling themselves more....you....believing the hokem that God....(should He even really exist)....raised you up and anointed you because you are so special....or those who think that they are ministering to you.
The Golden Globe Awards are but another major television special where evangelicals by watching it make a mockery of the Lord's Day. We found the excuse in evangelicalism that we needed so that we can go to church in the morning and spend the rest of the day in entertainment. My home television has only been on once on a Lord's Day in the last thirty-eight years....and that was ten minutes for an emergency. Does that make me holy? NO! It just shows that I know the Lord's Day to be a hedge of protection that God has given us....and it would have been a source of discernment in America had Christians held true to to God's Word. It's probably part of the reason that I recognize Donald Trump as a false prophet but evangelicals do not
Donald Trump would have absolutely no idea how evangelicals might differ from one another....for he has no idea on anything at all concerning the Christian Faith....and has demonstrated no desire to learn. So when a Paula White latches on to him he probably just thought....'that's cool'.....but when James Dobson and Franklin Graham join....well these guys are A-team members....the evangelical vote has got to be in the bag. Most of the news sites had as one of their headlines something like....."Trump says God is on our side." Now on this one....millions of evangelicals probably squirmed in their seat....for we have acknowledged forever that you don't make statements like this....but once again....Donald Trump hasn't a clue.....and apparently does not have the advisers to stop him from making such statements.
