VOTED FOR HIM.....CELEBRATED.....NEVER AGAIN
Franklin Graham announced a prayer march on September 26 in our nation's capitol....the same day that Jonathan Cahn has a rally scheduled. As of today these are purely political events....(in spite of all the rhetoric otherwise)....in support of keeping Donald Trump in office....but a lot can happen in the world from now until September 26th. It doesn't appear that Donald Trump will resign any time soon....but he is capable of a major mistake a day if those around him are not alert. Those prayers on that day....all of our prayers on that day....may still be for Donald Trump....but not for a reelection....rather that somehow out of this man's mind....(his last tweet....three hours ago was...."Happy Sunday! We want God!)....there might come some semblance of wisdom....that God might have mercy upon us....for His glory....and not ours.
Note: Franklin Graham commented 'positively' on his own Twitter feed on President Trump's inane tweet...."We want God." That's how far his discernment is lagging.....in stretching President Trump's tweet which was pecked out fast as a bone thrown to evangelicals....as something genuine.

Chariots Of Fire has been my number one film since I first saw it in the theater in March of 1981. Ian Charleson.....who played Eric Liddel....died only nine years later in 1990. Brad Davis who played Jackson Scholz died in 1991....Ian Holm who played Sam Mussabini passed away in June....and Ben Cross who played Harold Abrahams died yesterday....but all I have to do is put the DVD in the machine and there they are....more importantly there is the remembrance of someone like Eric Liddel who died as a missionary in a World War II Japanese prisoner internment camp in China. There's a line in that forever hauntingly song Unchained Melody.....time goes by so slowly.....and time can do so much....but time goes by fast....it only in the present seems to pass slowly. The 'second hand' never stops. You are a few minutes closer to standing before Jesus Christ than when you started reading this post. Whether you have been a great athlete or a famous actor or a president or a king or whatever you might claim to be will not matter. Joe Biden or Donald Trump will not matter. You cannot stop this face-to-face meeting....nor can you even slow it down....you can only either humble yourself before your creator and your judge....or you can enjoy the present....as another hit song from the 60s put it...."....I swear there ain't no heaven....but pray there ain't no hell."

In April....with coronavirus deaths at 42,000....the President was asked where he thought this would go...his answer was...."Maybe 60 (thousand)....70....75....maybe 55." We....conservatives and even evangelicals....have set ourselves up for denying any future medical statistics on this pandemic or any other disease. We saw only an election.....and were led to attempt to destroy the reputation of two very experienced people who have only done what their professional lives had called for them to do. Human life does matter to us anti-abortion people anymore.....only an election.....and a prince. When the flu season hits....possibly in conjunction with another wave of the virus....we will have to keep saying that this is all just a hoax. We are the in-your-face people now....live for today. How could we ever comment on a mental disorder on anyone....when our own hero....to anyone not hindered by a blinding bias....is a seriously ill sociopath?
