Trump is all about; "The Art of the Deal", deception has always been his tactic to win things he wanted to win. He saw a block of people out there who were not voting and sought to court them putting him over the top in the election. I have been involved in politics, and because of this I knew what he was doing and why he was doing it.
I voted for him too but had no illusions that it had anything to do with God. All his verbiage reflects a "prosperity gospel" that if we say "God" enough times he will give us all what we want. Paula White was the final evidence of Trump's mindset.
He is another cog in the wheel rolling toward the end times events culminating in the narcissist rule. He may not know it but he is being used, or he does know it and we have all been deceived.
Our country is a nation "for the people and by the people." God gave us over to that many years ago. We are not "for God by God." And, remember congress voted to place, "In God we trust" on our money. Our money is our god in this country and it is not the God of the Bible.
Anyone who has placed our president on some kind of pedestal will be fooled by the antichrist. The clues are many that he does not know our God and has never been born again.
We ought to be excited as believers as we watch how easily people will be fooled by "god talk" not realizing it is not the God of the Bible they revere, it is themselves, their god is themselves. Our excitement is not that people are being fooled but that it is an indication of the end times and that we will be going home soon.
We must be about the business of introducing Christ to those around us, and edifying one another as we endure disrespect and every other attack of the devil.
I often think about Noah as he entered the ark, perhaps looking down below as he watched many of his countrymen and relatives who were not going on the ark. This is similar to our condition right now, we are about to be taken in the rapture knowing that most of the people we know will not be going with us and worse, think they are saved but are not.
Matthew 7:21-23
I Never Knew You
21 “Not everyone who says to me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ will enter the kingdom of heaven, but the one who does the will of my Father who is in heaven. 22 On that day many will say to me, ‘Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy in your name, and cast out demons in your name, and do many mighty works in your name?’ 23 And then will I declare to them, ‘I never knew you; depart from me, you workers of lawlessness.’"
When we love Christ more than anyone or anything our feelings of regret about relatives and others who are lost pale in comparison to our love for Him. We cannot defend or come alongside those who have rejected Christ, the very One Who created them.
We can pray for them but they cannot be our friends, they are the enemies of Christ so they are our enemies too.
Matthew 12:30 “Whoever is not with me is against me, and whoever does not gather with me scatters.”
We must live our lives building relationships with those who love Christ above all else.
