Religion is an interesting thing. Folks can go to church every Sabbath for decades, and not be a good Christian. Others can hit church at weddings and funerals, and be a good Christian.

In terms of following God’s direction, I realize this isn’t truly possible, but I do believe some people who do not go to church on a regular basis know God, respect Him, and have a very firm grasp of man’s relationship with Him, His relationship with man, and how He will figure into our future.

I may be wrong, but I see Trump as a person that knows God. I do see some fundamental flaws, but no more than I see in myself. I do think God is important to this nation and global dynamics.

Trump has raised good kids. I am not sure you can do that without knowing God.

The other day he had a prayer breakfast. I get the impression there was a prayer session for Trump. I believe Trump is very serious about his candidacy, and is re-evaluating himself in the process.

He is in the process of developing sound policy. I think he is aware he needs God’s help.

You know folks, we can all lay this off at Trump simply working the public over, but at some point we’re going to have to look at Trump overall, and realize he’s the real deal.

We can’t continue to watch him do everything right on policy, campaigning, getting the message out, connecting with the common man, and renewing his faith in God, and continue to trash the man.

As some point we either have to accept that God is real and can still act on people’s lives today, or we need to hang it up and admit to ourselves that we don’t really believe God is vital and engaged in contemporary times, and can still deliver the Saul/Paul experience.

If Trump — if the people of the USA — give God even half a chance in their lives, they will be amazed.

Going to church is a misnomer, even though the scriptures do admonish Christians to keep assembling for worship. Christians are the church.

But what if we look closely and find he is not the real deal, at least not yet?

...and can still deliver the Saul/Paul experience.

But Paul stayed away from ministry for seven years after his conversion. It was only when Barnabas brought him to the disciples that he was to become the great leader of the early church. How many years has it been since Trump has been called to conservationism? Does his ego and pride constitute a sin or a virtue? The Saul/Paul analogy really does not seem fitting at least at the present time. I pray that Trump is trusting in Christ alone for his righteousness before the throne of God's ultimate justice. I also pray that he is humble before the LORD and abhors his sin and arrogance. I hope one day to see the fruit of repentance, right now not so much.

This was a serious prayer session......even the laying on of hands.
I believe Trump is real and wants to get right with the Lord.

This is a HUGE undertaking ( no pun intended)
.....and he needs all the help and prayer he can get!

The arrows are flying at him from all directions even from El Chapo.
God bless him.......
God protect him and his family.
