I suppose with this logic, “many of us” should never want a benevolent administration in office. Let’s always vote for Globalist, Leftist, Progressives, and Commies to be in charge over us.
You’ll get your wish soon enough. Enjoy it.

I don’t think that’s what the author is wishing for. If I read his point correctly, he believes that the church sometimes gets too complacent and comfortable in the status quo and weak and soft. They also depend too much on a few strong personalities to defend their values.
It will take COLLECTIVE effort of the whole body of Christ to fight the decline in morality in our culture, not just one man.
Persecution for a short while, sometimes has a way of strengthening the spirituality of the church, just like exercise, no matter how uncomfortable and streneous, strengthens the muscle.
