Lord's Day Post

            Franklin Graham last year at this time called for June 2, 2019 to be a day of prayer for President Trump....to protect him in the face of political attacks. The next month Trump used the word...'g*damn' twice at his Greenville, N. C. rally. Aside from the profane language itself....you would think that he would hold back on words like this....on a televised rally....if for no other reason than not to humiliate supporters.
            Here are a couple of legitimate questions to at least ponder....'If A Christian believes that a genuine biblical false prophet has entered the sheepfold....deceiving the flock....leading them astray.....prophesying peace and security when God's Word very clearly says the opposite....tempting them with greed and power....building up anger....praising himself like no one before him....would it not be proper for that believer to pray....that God would open the eyes of the flock as to the false prophet who has entered the sheepfold....not by the gate....but in another way....a "thief and a robber" as Jesus described such a person?
            Another question to at least be pondered would be....why is it that Franklin Graham and others....follow Donald Trump....(for that is truly what they do)....but there are yet others....who do not recognize in him the voice of a shepherd or one who leads in the safe way.....and will not only not follow....but will flee....praying yes for mercy upon this man.....(I have two whole posts in the past that are prayers for Donald Trump)....but praying more for those following him into danger?
