Abraham Lincoln said, I keep my friends close and my enemies closer.
We need to watch carefully. I think we’re going to see an act of God in a couple of weeks. It isn’t about Michael Moore or even, in a way, about Hillary Clinton or Donald Trump. It’s about God.
That name disgraces this site.

AS always.
I am praying for the same kind of “act of God” that you appear to be.
Rev. Bill Cloud (Shorshim Ministries, GA) in his Yom Teruah message presented the very likely truth that America is not likely to become “Great Again” regardless of who is elected, because it doesn’t clearly show up in end time prophecies.
Paul wrote to the Thessalonians of a Falling Away, not a great return to God, for the world as a whole.
I hope your vision is true, but I’m not holding my breath.

Americans aren’t God’s “Chosen People”. I find it difficult to either praise or blame God for this election, one way or another. Considering the sordid past of this country, we’re very lucky if God hasn’t abandoned us entirely. Did God initiate or approve slavery, Manifest Destiny, the Mexican War, the Spanish American War, VietNam, or numerous other wars waged for the financial benefit of industrialists? Did God approve open homosexuality, or homosexual marriage? Did God give us abortion which has killed over sixty million innocents? Did God help us build a government with corruption unparalleled in world history?
And did God give His guidance to ABANDON ISRAEL?
The Founding Fathers, though most were extremely wealthy for the time, did have the interests of the people and the fledgling country at heart, I believe. But merely because they founded it as a Christian country and “in the name of God”, doesn’t necessarily mean God was in on the deal.
God guides the hearts of men, at least if they seek His guidance, not countries or political parties. Even in ancient Israel it was the people who God guided, not the king or the state, and through individual sacrifice and devotion they made Israel great. At times the United States has shown exceptionalism and greatness, but it has always been the individual citizens who made it that way, not any political party or candidate. The more the people sink into the cesspool of state corruption, the less reason God has to bless whatever is left of this country.
