I don’t know for sure, but maybe they are secular Jews, or JINOs.
“Trump” is 17th century English for the sounding of a trumpet. Scriptural references variously mention, a trump, a shout, and the voice of the Archangel.
Zeph. 1:16 (trumpet)
Matt. 24:32 (trumpet)
1 Cor. 15:52 (trumpet)
1 Thess. 4:14 (shout, voice of the Archangel, trumpet)
Rev. 11:15 (trumpet)
Rev. 14:15 (shout or loud cry)
Odds are 1:1 that it in no way references this President.
Those are your odds.
God has a sense of humor that most people can’t understand.
I see irony everywhere.
The Jewish Messiah is NOT Jesus.
I get what you meant.
The appearance of “trump” in context to The Day of The LORD is God-like humor.
My point is taking it beyond that surface level observation goes “beyond what is written” (1 Cor. 4:6) in that the text speaks of still future events.
Trump gets re-elected and “The Man of Sin” gets revealed on the world stage... THEN I think we go beyond the casual observation, “He-heh, it says ‘trump’; check it out,” to a “lights and sirens” moment that will carve like a sword through the church, and divide between who’s awake, and who’s in dire peril of perishing.
I have a mental “shelf” where I put things that seem to bear elevated potential for prophetic relevance. Many things I just skim, acknowledge that there’s conversation, and roll on. But weighty things — Pastor Coverstone and the dreams he had, for instance, or the swirl about blood moons a few years ago — go on my shelf until they fizzle or start growing legs.
It’s proved to be a good aid to throttle the broader tendency to hyperventilate about every last prophetic-y thing.
So, this is a really interesting take on things. I’d much prefer that there be significantly more scripture cited to show how the stated view meshes with the text.
This us the sort of thing I put on my shelf for further consideration.
One thing I enjoy about reading the Bible and knowing who God is (is that even fathomable?) is seeing & reading His humor.
John 14:6 in Latin for example: Via et Veritas et Vita. Nice play on words there and say it 5 times fast.
He mentions Cyrus the Great by name in Isaiah about 150 years before Cyrus was even born.
Why wouldn’t The Lord use humor in referring to a world leader by name when He decides to catastrophically intervene in mankind’s affairs once more in a Prophecy that outlines this?
Take Jewish perspective with a grain of salt even when they use scripture.
A lot of Rabbi’s unfortunately are into Kabbalah and mesh their views with that with Scripture - not the best combo at all.
They’re still waiting for their “messiah”. They’ll get him for sure, the man who comes in his own name (John 5:43). There are even Rabbi’s claiming he’s here and might show up in the desert soon. Remember Jesus’s words about that in Matthew 24:26
“Therefore if they say to you, ‘Look, He is in the desert!’ do not go out; or ‘Look, He is in the inner rooms!’ do not believe it.”
