I was a Cruz supporter so I’m not thrilled about voting for Trump but I realize that God’s Hand is in play with these elections and He will choose who our next leader will be. The Lord put Israel under the rule of good kings and bad kings, sometimes exiled to be even under worse rulers - and all for a purpose.
God has often used imperfect men to affect His Will on His Nation. Ever heard of Saul of Tarsus? He went around zealously killing Christians until God changed him into the Apostle Paul. Regardless how sincere Trump is about a conversion, I am confident in the God that can change people.
I believed some of what Trump did to Cruz was dirty and underhanded. But it exposed that Cruz lacked the mental toughness to run against Hillary, something Trump has and God knew he had. So perhaps Trump is God’s vehicle to pull our country away from the cliff despite his sometimes sullied past.
Americans may be in store for four years of judgement and unredeemable evil under Hillary. It may be so that America will learn to repent and turn back to God. Or it may be that the End Times are approaching and He must set the stage for the Final Battle and the Final Judgement.
I am confident that God’s Will will be done in this election and confident that he wants me to vote for the one candidate left standing who can defeat the evil Clintons before that make America their gulag. Therefore, as a Christian, I have no trouble voting for Trump even though I am not personally fond of some of his deeds, past and present. God only asks for people He can use. He doesn’t ask for them to be pre-perfect before we vote for them.
Also, if it is judgement it will last more than 4 years, probably decades, because of the Supreme Court. I am praying that God will wake up his people. We can be so weak and spineless and blind.
Thank you for your well-expressed thoughts.
