'For Such a Time as This'

In the Old Testament book of Esther, King Xerxes of Persia was manipulated by his most trusted advisor, Haman, to grant him permission to exterminate the Jews in his kingdom. Esther, a Jewish woman, was a queen in his harem, presumably with the influence to get the king to change his mind and save the Jews. However, she could not go before the king unless she was summoned, and the king had not summoned her. If she went to him without a summons, it was likely the king would have her executed. But her uncle, Mordecai, pushed her to present herself without a summons. It was no time to wait around and see what happened, it was time to step up and save her people: “Do not think to yourself that in the king’s palace you will escape any more than all the other Jews. . . . And who knows whether you have not come to the kingdom for such a time as this?” (Esther 4:13-14). Esther’s response was brave and heroic: “I will go to the king, though it is against the law, and if I perish, I perish” (Esther 4:16).

With the death of Ruth Bader Ginsburg, America is now facing “such a time as this.” There are Senators, senate staffers, Republican operatives, conservative leaders, honest journalists (not an oxymoron quite yet), and citizens across America that have to decide what course of action they will take or support over the next six weeks. Now is the time to step up, work hard, and save the country.

with Roberts being either a centrist, a turncoat or a weakling.

All three.

Biden 'winning' is not a done deal, and the same facade we saw with Hillary!. The enthusiasm is not there for Pedo-Joe or Heels Up.

KJV is clear about it.

Of COURSE it is; but it isn’t the Source.
