“God let Israel suffer a bad king, but do people say that Saul was God’s choice? David did acknowledge Saul as “God’s Anointed” and refused to kill him on several occasions because of this, but Saul was most definitely NOT God’s choice.”
True.
The same was true of the selection of Mao Ze Dong in China, Hitler in Germany, and many other despots.
Nations who have taken their eyes off God and His word and make material things their idols, always eventually find a walking-talking god/idol. And God permits them to have their choice to teach them what they have become.
It’s also a lesson in what godless DEMOCRACY produces when a republic forgets that its founders insisted on a republican form of government, and so they begin using mob-action democracy to choose their leaders.
I personally believe that the nation won't survive this. Too many people as so ignorant of God's Word to think that we're so great a nation that God would go so far as to choose our leader?! We don't even rate in the scriptures! ...other than being bundled with the rest of the Goyim.
People should look past this and prepare for the results of what we're seeing the beginnings of now. But they aren't. Americans don't want to "lose" anything. They don't want to lose the house in the cul-de-sac, the medical insurance, the high speed Internet access....every nicety and creature comfort that we enjoy here in America. Too many have forgotten that peace and prosperity are only gained at the expense of force rendered with godly wisdom. Too many "sell" their vote to pandering politicians who promise a temporary security, which results in the willing forfeiture of "inalienable" rights. Too many in this nation have become slaves. The financial crisis which we're all observing now gives proof to what I've just written, but there are other things as well although there's not enough room here to write them all.
Judgment is coming to this nation, and people should "disconnect" from it now and turn to the Lord Yeshua (Jesus).
