I have been thinking about all that too. I occurred to me that our Lord did not does not always use only the devout to perform his will. I mean look at Obama! We needed the jolt.

Frankly, I see Trump as religiously naïve and ignorant of faith, but I mean ignorant in the best sense of the word.
Few Christians will say they never have asked God for forgiveness, because they have never done anything that was not done well. lol. Honestly, that was rather endearing because again, he was being so honest.

Yes, RitaOK—God used Cyrus the Persian to free the Jews from the yoke of Babylon.

He will use the instrument of His choosing.

I like the way Trump does not shy away from saying that the Bible is his favorite book.

Especially after all these years of a President who shows such disgust towards God’s Word.

It gives me hope that God is not finished with America yet.

I so remember how it felt like we lost our way by 1979-1980.

And then Reagan happened.

And the GOP hated Reagan, too.

Trump reminds me of Nebuchadnezzar..... I suspect the man is going to have an encounter with the risen Christ along the way and why he may very well be on this road he's on.....he's surrounded by Christian men and ones he has yet to meet...just as with us all...it's a process and takes time.

He also reminds me of Patton in his bombastic approach....well meaning and direct but not exactly palatable to the elites who look for refinement in leaders.....they forget we're in a fight for this country and believe the political climate remains as was.....everythings changed since Obama....and it's ALL become worse for this country and the world.... We live in very dangerous and unstable times 'right now'....it will take 'fighters' to get us above water......the elites are going to have to suck it up and get out of the way!..and let the real men do what needs doing of....and it's going to be really bumpy whoever takes office.

I liked it that he said he tries to do better. That’s a big part of repentance, and the step many people don’t do.

But he was aware that the taking of communion and forgiveness are related. I sometimes wonder if those who take it as a matter of routine and ritual have forgotten it’s purpose
He has not delved into that most precious to him His family history (ancestori) His military school background nor his faith Will be interest to see how or if these areas are covered
