Freepers: A Call to Daily Prayer of Protection for Donald Trump

Vanity | 11/14/2015 | Jobim

[jobim]

May I propose that Freepers pledge a daily prayer for Donald Trump for his protection?

Think of his enemies: El Chapo and his henchmen and La Raza, ISIS and their legions, Soros and the Globalists, Wall Street, the Democratic Party, etal.

So much hinges on this one man, and everybody is increasingly aware of this. May we simply ask Almighty God to protect Donald Trump from harm each day?

... "What the hell" which is a blasphemous state of mind.

Oh, please. It's just an expression. I was not intending to take the name of the Lord in vain.

[Heart-Rest]

Praying for Trump and for all of them, and while we are focusing here on spiritual matters, maybe a brief exercise of our imaginations, observing Preacher Trump sermonizing on building a big wall, can build a little smile on someone's face.

"Let's take a look at what the Bible says, in the book of Revelation, chapter 21, verses 9-27."

---

9 Then came one of the seven angels who had the seven bowls full of the seven last plagues, and spoke to me, saying, "Come, I will show you the Bride, the wife of the Lamb." 10 And in the Spirit he carried me away to a great, high mountain, and showed me the holy city Jerusalem coming down out of heaven from God, 11 having the glory of God, its radiance like a most rare jewel, like a jasper, clear as crystal. 12 It had a great, high wall, with twelve gates, and at the gates twelve angels, and on the gates the names of the twelve tribes of the sons of Israel were inscribed; 13 on the east three gates, on the north three gates, on the south three gates, and on the west three gates. 14 And the wall of the city had twelve foundations, and on them the twelve names of the twelve apostles of the Lamb.

15 And he who talked to me had a measuring rod of gold to measure the city and its gates and walls. 16 The city lies foursquare, its length the same as its breadth; and he measured the city with his rod, twelve thousand stadia; its length and breadth and height are equal. 17 He also measured its wall, a hundred and forty-four cubits by a man's measure, that is, an angel's. 18 The wall was built of jasper, while the city was pure gold, clear as glass. 19 The foundations of the wall of the city were adorned with every jewel; the first was jasper, the second sapphire, the third agate, the fourth emerald, 20 the fifth onyx, the sixth carnelian, the seventh chrysolite, the eighth beryl, the ninth topaz, the tenth chrysoprase, the eleventh jacinth, the twelfth amethyst. 21 And the twelve gates were twelve pearls, each of the gates made of a single pearl, and the street of the city was pure gold, transparent as glass.

22 And I saw no temple in the city, for its temple is the Lord God the Almighty and the Lamb. 23 And the city has no need of sun or moon to shine upon it, for the glory of God is its light, and its lamp is the Lamb. 24 By its light shall the nations walk; and the kings of the earth shall bring their glory into it, 25 and its gates shall never be shut by day—and there shall be no night there; 26 they shall bring into it the glory and the honor of the nations. 27 But nothing unclean shall enter it, nor any one who practices abomination or falsehood, but only those who are written in the Lamb's book of life.

"Give me a break, folks, even the holy city from heaven has a huge, beautiful wall around it, and, as it plainly says there in
verse 27, they keep all the illegals, and riff-raff, and those not documented in the book, completely out of that beautiful city!"

I pyay you can stop being the turd in the punchbowl.

I pray for the safety of America and for her people to emerge from their long slumber and elect a leader who will ably see her through the very dark days that lie ahead.

[C. Edmund Wright]

I pray that if he’s nominated, and elected, that his 50 years of liberal reflexes and big government involvements will be stamped out by a good cabinet and some good advisors...and that he would actually listen to them.

[C. Edmund Wright]

It’s going to be hard to get through to someone who is simply enamored of how much he knows, until circumstances force him to admit inadequacy in that department.

you mean Trump?

[C. Edmund Wright]

...just keep in mind that God has used Obama - and protected him - in order to punish America.

[C. Edmund Wright]

sir, firing back at Carson does not fit your description at all. It’s the opposite. That’s why it should not be celebrated the way we do when he fires back at the media, at PC in general, at Washington.

Not all “firing back” is equal. Think it thru.

[C. Edmund Wright]

I understand that while there is an outside chance that Cruz or Carson could get elected, neither is capable of actually changing anything. Carson is just too strange, and Cruz is still beholden to donors and is still confined by the GOP establishment. Only Trump, with his financial and party independence, stands a chance of stopping what is going on.

That's about 70% reasonable, and about 30% total bullsh-t. The reasonable part? Cruz and Carson being outside shots now, and Trump being the most able to shake things up good. No problem with that.

But to characterize Cruz as "beholden to donors" and "confined by the GOP establishment" is just nonsense that you cannot support. And I know how you're going to try, and I ask you for your own embarrassment not to even go there. It's just a ridiculous assertion, and weakens your entire post, which has some validity.

[LS]

No it is not. Trump has already demonstrated a willingness and in fact eagerness to operate outside the box. Cruz, with his laudable respect for separation of powers and process, would be highly likely to allow himself to become a prisoner of the Ryans and McConnels. And it doesn't embarrass anyone to state the truth.

Moreover, Cruz entirely lacks (so far) any proven record of being able to go around or over the media (as seen in the polls), something Reagan did and something Trump (in much different ways) does.

Maybe 20, even 15 years ago, a President Cruz would have no trouble getting his agenda through. Today, very little chance.

[C. Edmund Wright]

You don’t understand my comments on Trump, because you debated something we agree on. ,

Nor do you understand how long it took Reagan to “go around” - and FTR, it’s still early in the game. I mean, the game has not officially even started.

But I’ll give you credit, you didn’t try to defend your earlier comments about Cruz being heholden to this or that power or establishment.....which was a good choice on your part.

[LS]

We don't know WHO Cruz is "beholden to." Certainly you don't. You don't know who his big donors are. We do know Trump is beholden to no one because he finances himself.

Cruz is clearly either beholden to someone or not thinking straight to support Corker, TPP, and expansion of H1-B visas. And a two years ago he wasn't in favor of deportation. I think being "beholden" to someone is the more generous conclusion.

That twisting of the word of God to the aggrandizement of his enemies is rather sick, don’t you think?

Unfortunately, that is the exact idolatrous blasphemy that the northern tribes of Israel were practicing that caused YHVH to cast them out of the land, and disperse them across the rim of the Mediterranean.

Perhaps that is an indication of how he sees it?

A disgusting admixture of misunderstood virtue and wisdom with a total inversion of truth and purpose!

Have you too joined the Troll union?

Cruz did not “support” the items of the poison pill he added to the gang of eight’s bill to defeat it.

I’m confident that you know that.

[C. Edmund Wright]

there are only two options here.....lying troll of total ignorance. LS, take your pick. It’s GOT to be one or the other.

Is that you Donald? Being thin skinned and foul mouthed? I pray you learn how to spell.

LOL, what rot.
