I think you've misidentified the fool.
Notably NOT among God’s principles was for a church to take over any government in the name of Christ.
That was something the church arrogated to itself a few hundred years into its history, and it dumbed down the church and whitewashed the state.
Why does there have to be one “THE” fool?
Ask a silly question get a silly answer.
Trump was asked a silly question.
Ephesians 6:12King James Version (KJV)
12 For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.
Good, so get your head out of Caesar’s je ne sais quoi and be the church for once.
A culture warrior who thinks men should be able to use the ladies’ room? Color me sceptical.
Once again, the presidential election boils down to the lesser of two evils argument. Wasn’t Trump supposed to be the solution to the same old?
I’m sick of this. No point in voting anymore.
China has many of the factories and industries that used to be in the USA providing production, wealth creation , job creation, opportunity.
U.S. politicians beginning with bubba Clinton have allowed this to happen. This is why America is in decline with a 500 billion dollar yearly trade defiiit with China.
No other politician will stop this theft. they have more planned as with TPP and cruz, Obama etc. are all for that which will totally destroy the USA economically.
The following is a must see video and article for every American to see how all U.S. politicians have betrayed the USA and Americans for decades:

Trump:
“
I said, in the history of the world, this is the greatest theft ever perpetrated by anyone or any country, what China has done to us.
It is the greatest single theft. They have taken our jobs, they have taken our money, I mean I see the empty buildings all over Staten Island... I see them all over... Really really sad. That's not going to happen anymore with me...
The truth is, we have all the cards."
Secular society should conduct itself in some kind of secular order.
That probably does not involve X-raying people’s underpants as if you are God.
Good for you. chief Justice John Roberts has already said during his Supreme Court nomination hearings that the Supreme Court will not entertain any case which will overturn Roe v. Wade.
The only place to fight is at the state level.
None of the Feds will be able to help you so long as Cruz’s friend Justice Roberts is the Chief Justice.
We have never had a Congress, Republican controlled or not defund Planned Parenthood.
So your fight is limited to the State and shaking your fist at the sky.
Seriously, is there some other avenue I am missing? I just don’t see it.
Supporting Cruz gets you nothing you want. May feel good but he cannot win. Thats pretty obvious by now. So the question is are you willing to help move the culture back to the right some or not at all?
I rationalize this on:
- People that know Trump well say he is a man of his word, honorable and loves America.
- His word is he will protect religious liberty, nominate conservative judges and bring education back under local control.
- to get what you want in the real world Judges, Education and religious liberty are where it begins to happen.
- This takes time, it took the left since the 50s to do this much damage to us.
- Trump’s Word on nationalism and economic programs if they happen buys us time to start healing our sick culture.
Cruz cannot change anything as hes owned and not going to go against his backers.
So its either we get some of you want or nothing. There is no silver bullet.
Once more you find yourself with idols with feet of clay. Well I tried to warn you.
Given the choice between following the instructions in the Bible and your instructions, I will follow the Bible each and every time. And the Bible teaches that I must OPPOSE wickedness. Slaughtering the innocent and unborn children is vile, evil and is the very definition of wickedness.
I will oppose it at all times and that includes supporting ONLY politicians that oppose abortion.
The only issues that matters this election cycle is immigration. If we do not fix our illegals problem in the next four years we will lose the country to the globalists. Give the Marxists Rats millions and millions of new voters and you can kiss American conservationism good-bye, our Constitution will be voided and thrown on the ash heap of history.
Only Trump will solve the problem, Lying Ted Cruz is a globalist, married to a globalist and funded by globalists.
What does Trump saying he “hates everything about abortion” mean to you??
A conservative response on his part would have been, it is a states rights issue. Next question...
He gave a silly answer? I thought is answer was very direct.
You’re point was to excuse Trump from liability based on the the questioner being foolish, but by that logic the person who answers the fool’s question is the bigger fool.
I never fell for the personality cult of Trump, so I’m not thrilled at the prospects in November.
However I am rather irritated that people continue deny that the same old playbook is being used again and it seems like nobody wants to admit it.
The bible says you have to step into Caesar’s shoes?
You have, like so many soi-disant Christians, tossed your bible in the blender and picked out what you have liked.
The more I read it as a specific set of instructions to specific roles, the more I see that we moderns have been arrogant and overreached.
I hope not to give a single instruction that contradicts what the bible actually says, not what you think it says. It is a set of statements to particular audiences. If you can refute that, feel welcome to. But you probably can’t.
Good luck getting your perfect candidate. It so happens that Trump himself sent out signals that he wants abortion reduced from where it is now. Are you going to mince away because he hasn’t offered plu-perfection? I have a sense that you are.
