You know as I ponder those that are in places of power and the fact that God chose men to rule over Israel/Judah that had both successes and or failures......take for example Josiah......the bible records that he tore down the groves and destroyed the altars used to worship pagan gods, renovated the temple. had the ark moved back into the temple, had the law read, re-instituted biblical worship and then in the end ignored a prophetic utterance to not fight with the Pharaoh of Egypt which he did and was killed (died) by the arrow from Necho II of Egypt......
Satan told JESUS he controls all Kingdoms and gives them to whomsoever he wills.......and the bible also states that God raises up men to rule in the kingdoms of men and a study of the word reveals both to be correct.....GOD'S permissive will allows for the enemy to raise ungodly, evil en to rule like Hitler or Stalin, while GOD also interject and works his direct will to place men on the throne for specific purposes....such as Cyrus and or even the Pharaoh of the Exodus........
At the end of the day in my view, when it comes to the freedom to VOTE for a believer, which was a rarity until the last few centuries, comes down to the issues of morality........while the man may be as lost as goose, what does he believe or push when it comes to abortion, gay marriage, institution of the family, freedom of speech, the right to worship or claim God openly, etc....secondarily jobs, economy, military etc..........ALL men are liars the bible states and ALL men are sinners and none good......
At the end of the day we have but a few choices...
a. Pick the person that supports a many biblical truths or what's right
b. Not vote and keep our mouths shut about the policies that are passed
c. Run for office ourselves
d. Put our heads in the sand and hope for the best
e. Trust and believe the world is going to go the way the world is going to go
f. A combination of the above......
My view on Trump......I believe he has been somewhat good for the economy, jobs and maybe some religious rights. I do believe that he could take us to war ultimately and or in a moment of indecision or decision lead to the destruction of the U.S.......I did vote for him because at the time I fully understood how evil Hillary is and would I vote for him again...YES because I do not want to see the socialist left finally suppress our Christian voice, legalize full term abortion, and promote more gay rights just to name three......
