    • While I fully concur with your thoughts, I  firmly believe God, Himself, will take revenge on those who have made a mockery of our government.   Our forefathers set up this nation under the direction of God.  Those who are not in compliance with the Constitution and the Constitutional Republic have committed treason against the united states and should be held to account.  "Vengeance is mine, saith the Lord."

    • Scripture is replete with examples of civil authorities executing Godly punishment ...  Read Romans 13: 1-7 as follows:

      Whosoever therefore resisteth the power, resisteth the ordinance of God: and they that resist shall receive to themselves damnation. For rulers are not a terror to good works, but to the evil. Wilt thou then not be afraid of the power? do that which is good, and thou shalt have praise of the same: For he is the minister of God to thee for good. But if thou do that which is evil, be afraid; for he beareth not the sword in vain: for he is the minister of God, a revenger to execute wrath upon him that doeth evil.Wherefore ye must needs be subject, not only for wrath, but also for conscience sake. For for this cause pay ye tribute also: for they are God's ministers, attending continually upon this very thing. Render therefore to all their dues: tribute to whom tribute is due; custom to whom custom; fear to whom fear; honour to whom honour."   

      Governments are ordained of God to render justice among men... Governments don't bear the sword in vain and those who violate the ordinances of men and God must be prepared to stand before the judgment seat and receive retribution for their crimes.  God disposes of His vengeance in many ways... one of them is by application of judicial punishment.  President Trump is the sword of justice in our government and he has the God-given duty to faithfully execute the laws of our nation in order to ensure the security and peace of the Nation.  Pres. Trump is God's instrument of justice and vengeance.

    • Are you saying Hitler and Stalin should not have been opposed because God put them in power?  I believe the Bible refers to church leaders not political hacks.

    • All power ... is meant for good, however, man has free will including leaders.  Hitler and Stalin perverted the power given to them and the people around them and in the main evidently agreed with it or they would have taken them out early on in their reign of terror.  God uses the wicked to expose sin and its wages... misery and corruption... instructing the wise to avoid such calamity.  God doesn't approve of any sin... or abuse of power... He gave Mankind DOMINION over the Earth and God will not lie so it is with the sorrow men bring upon themselves... by their own hand... evil works in the earth... not by God's hand all his ways are good and perfect...  

      Ro 13 must be taken in context with the entire word of God and with the understanding that God is the source of all power in the Earth... but, He assigned mankind in Genisis 1:28 with dominion over all of the Earth and it is man who reigns in the Earth... God is revealed in Christ and His Word... beckoning to mankind to adhere to His Laws and tenants for good Government... only to be ignored by most men.  Hence, the calamity that is mankind's record and history in the Earth... man's inhumanity to his own kind and his abuse of authority over creation... destroying and perverting what God meant for good. 

      There is much more to be said about government and the purpose of authority and power... but suffice it to say that all power is given by God... how it is used is up to those given the power... God's will is known ... He wants mankind to use His power for good... always.  However, that is not what happens due to the fallen state of mankind.

    • You should study your Bible more.

    • Gen 1:28.. tells us that God blessed man, and instructed him to be fruitful, and multiply, to replenish the earth, and subdue it: and have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over every living thing that moveth upon the earth... Man is to rule and rein in the Earth to have dominion over all of the Earth... he was to subdue it and keep order in the Earth... that requires judgment and the execution of God's Word ... which brings with it both blessing and judgment.  Man is to judge righteously the works and deeds of every living creature upon the Earth... mankind has God's dominion in the Earth and God works through man to bring about judgment and vengeance in the Earth... as God dictates.

    • we fail because Adam ate the fruit now the Devil took the place of Adam.

    • Maybe everyone should review?

      Do you recall the immediate results when the Israelites took up public idol worship just within the time Moses was up on the mountain for the ten commandments?

      Moses determined which ones regretted the offense, and which ones did not want to be in the program. (do you see parallels with this situation?)

      Once identified, the deserters were slaughtered by divine commandment.

      Just a thought for the rest of the year.

  • We need Trump for another 4 years!  We also need new people at DOJ and FBI to clean out the rot that has permiated the agencies for years.  

    • I am with you 100%
