And note the use of the phrase “in the year of our Lord”:
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, I have hereunto set my hand this seventeenth day of November, in the year of our Lord two thousand seventeen, and of the Independence of the United States of America the two hundred and forty-second.
That phrase is used to refer to the year in the reign of a king; in this case, the reign of Jesus, counted from His incarnation here, and continuing to the present day.
Affirms both His sovereignty and resurrection.
I am waiting for a Federal Judge to block this proclamation. Thank you, Mr. President.
