Well, God never wanted that kind of philosophy in the first place. It is exactly when humans confess to being too weak but that God deserves the glory, that God steps up and shows Himself powerful again.
I think the strong man is speaking of a generation that is proud and thinks it has everything in hand. Not one like today that is perplexed.
Such a thing could come in the wake of a Trump success. This is the achilles heel that this world system hangs upon any success. People may arise who take the glory themselves and don’t give it to God. Today’s faith revolution may be yesterday’s discarded history.
And God doesn’t yet want us to use that possibility as an excuse not to make what hay we can while the sun shines.
So basically I’m saying, don’t scorn the potential for an American success brought by divine arrangement through Donald Trump because other people may abuse it tomorrow.
Because, first of all, we don’t know for certain whether people WILL abuse it tomorrow. There may be many tomorrows before that happens.
To say you would not have wanted to vote for that is like saying you would not have wanted to build the house that ended up getting plundered by enemies. That’s the enemies’ fault, not your fault. God is not going to hold you responsible for others’ acts of abuse.
