Satan has the appearance of being in control.
Scary reality Bump!
(Satan has the appearance of being in control.)
Well he IS the god of his world ๐.
For now; but not forever. /preaching to the choir
2 Corinthians 4:3-4
King James Version
3 But if our gospel be hid, it is hid to them that are lost:
4 In whom the god of this World hath blinded the minds of them which believe not, lest the light of the glorious Gospel of Christ, Who is the image of God, should shine unto them.

Heโd better enjoy his power while he can. The lake of fire wonโt be so enjoyable.
Amen ๐๐ป!
Christians have survived in hostile environments before. Do we cave under the legal and cultural pressure? No. As Peter reminds us, we are to obey God rather than man in matters of living out our faith. God has claim to our primary allegiance. Read about the martyrs and confessors from the earliest days of the Church until the present time.

The fact that Christianity is under attack is proof that it’s legit.
John 15:18-27
The Wrath of God is upon us.
We were warned!
I’ve read the Old Testament, so I get it. The ancient Israelites had to be taught the same lesson over and over again. Human nature hasn’t changed.
And no, we are not smarter than our forbearers. Quite the opposite, in fact.
John 15:18-27
King James Version
18 If the World hate you, ye know that it hated Me before it hated you.
19 If ye were of the World, the World would love his own: but because ye are not of the World, but I have chosen you out of the World, therefore the World hateth you.
20 Remember the Word that I said unto you, The servant is not greater than his Lord. If they have persecuted Me, they will also persecute you; if they have kept My saying, they will keep yours also.
21 But all these things will they do unto you for My Name’s sake, because they know not Him that sent Me.
22 If I had not come and spoken unto them, they had not had Sin: but now they have no cloak for their Sin.
23 He that hateth Me hateth My Father also.
24 If I had not done among them the works which none other man did, they had not had Sin: but now have they both seen and hated both Me and My Father.
25 But this cometh to pass, that the Word might be fulfilled that is written in their Law, They hated Me without a cause.
26 But when the Comforter is come, Whom I will send unto you from the Father, even the Spirit of Truth, which proceedeth from the Father, He shall testify of Me:
27 And ye also shall bear witness, because ye have been with Me from the beginning.

Whether or not Trump wins the election, the slide towards tyranny will continue. It's progress may be slowed down but eventually it will happen.
I pray that all of my Christian brothers and sisters will remain strong during this time of trial. I also pray that I never have to see it. Whether by death or the Rapture, I hope I'm gone. But if someone from the government puts a gun to my head and says I have to choose between it or Christ, it is Christ all the way.

There, fixed it.
Preach it!
IMO, even if Trump wins, it’s only a reprieve, putting off the day of evil.
I do not see enough of a turn around to take us back morally to where we were decades ago.
