Are You Satisfied With President Trump?

I am not sure you have to wonder.
I don't wonder about it at all. What I find appalling is how so many who say they are Christians believe Trump was put into office by God to save our country and the world.

God knows and sees all. He knew before we were ever put on this Earth that people would elect Trump as president. Many people who call themselves Christians are adamant that it was God who put Trump into office. I have to disagree because God gave us free will. Because he knows what we will do long before we are even born. I don't believe for a minute God would manipulate us to do so because he gave us free will. He did know from the beginning of time all that was going to happen and he knows how this world will come to an end. One only needs to study the Bible to see how God has warned us about ourselves. He used prophets to warn us, knowing there would be many who would be deceived by evil because Satan would whisper what people wanted to hear and because they didn't know the Lord or weren't strong in their faith would fall for the deceit.

In Ephesians 6:10-18 Jesus warned us of this and instructed us one what to do.

"10 Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord and in the power of His might. 11 Put on the whole armor of God, that you may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil. 12 For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this age, against spiritual hosts of wickedness in the heavenly places. 13 Therefore take up the whole armor of God, that you may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand.

14 Stand therefore, having girded your waist with truth, having put on the breastplate of righteousness, 15 and having shod your feet with the preparation of the gospel of peace; 16 above all, taking the shield of faith with which you will be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked one. 17 And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God; 18 praying always with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit, being watchful to this end with all perseverance and supplication for all the saints—" (NKJ)

Everything good that we have is because of God. He does not manipulate us because He gave us the armor we need. The problem is not all believers choose to use it.

Nobody said that God violated our free will and forced people to vote for Trump.

You seem very confused.

I do not think Joe Biden or Kamala Harris would be a good president.

Trump makes mistakes and has a big ego, but he is fighting against many evil things that Democrats love.

The President is the Antifa People that do not even realize they are Fascists. We have been invaded and the people are not immigrants.

Ever heard of deep state? Career federal bureaucracy?
Where are the JBS* people when you need them? You know Bilderbergers and the Illuminati have got to be involved in all of this somehow right? Is President Trump actually the secret "Sith Lord" that everyone is following in the name of "Old-School Patriotism" only to find out too latet that we have been duped?
