President and First Lady Praise 'the Power of Prayer, and the Eternal Glory of God' on National Day of Prayer.
"On this National Day of Prayer, America is engaged in a fierce battle against a terrible disease," Trump said. "In times of challenge, our people have always called upon the gift of faith, the power of prayer, and the eternal glory of God. I ask all Americans to join their voices on their hearts in spiritual union as we ask our Lord in heaven for strength and solace, for courage and comfort, for hope and healing, for recovery and renewal."

"In recent days and weeks, our country has endured great, great hardship," the President continued. We pray for every family stricken with grief and devastated with loss. We pray for the scientists and researchers pioneering treatments that they find therapies and vaccines and that they find them soon. We pray for the frontline workers keeping our nation fed."

Trump also referred to Zephaniah 3:17 found in the Bible's Old Testament.

"The Lord your God is in your midst, a mighty one who will save; he will rejoice over you with gladness; he will quiet you by his love; he will exult over you with loud singing."

"We have seen the grace of God through the love and devotion of our fellow citizens as scripture assures us the Lord our God is a mighty one who will save," Trump said. "And I think it's so true. Think of that. The Lord your God is in your midst. A mighty one who will save."

While I like Trump for what he is good at, finances and getting things done, I think we have to acknowledge he probably doesn't know any more about the Bible than Obama did. If we are honest, we all have to admit it was their speech writers who added the Spiritual stuff to their speeches.

After Donald Trump met with a group of evangelical leaders last week, Dr. James Dobson said that Trump "did accept a relationship with Christ," and he had done so recently.
Dobson, the founder of Focus on the Family, was talking about the meeting with Trump in an interview with Pastor Michael Anthony on his website, Godfactor.com, and Anthony had said he was taken aback by a "gentler Trump."

"[H]e did accept a relationship with Christ,"Dobson said. "I know the person who led him to Christ -- that's fairly recent."

God bless Donald Trump. He's a new Christian he only got saved in 2016 right around the time he launched his campaign for the presidency, Pastor Paula White-Cain prayed with him and he accepted Jesus as his savior. It's not our place as Christians to doubt that, he has a past that's probably not Christian-like but God forgives anybody of their sins should they ask Him to.

I would tend to agree that we should suspect that to be the case... Boy! That was "wordy" wasn't it? Let me explain:. We don't know how much time either spends in the Bible. But I suspect, not much... I don't know how much time Jimmy Carter spent reading the Bible, but I suspect more than any other in the last 100 years. Lousy President, but I always thought he was descent and honest..

I've read long, detailed bios of the first three Presidents, as well as Grant. I don't think that Washington or Grant read regularly to any great length. Adams and Jefferson did. I haven't read John Quincy Adams' bio yet, but I suspect he did. There was another President who made it a practice to fully read the Bible every year. Can't remember who, but he was after the Grant administration.

I don't have a conclusion to make other than the Presidents (and politicians in general) never seem to come off as spiritual leaders.

Hope you return soon Willie!

Who would you rather have? Trump or Biden, who is committed to opening the floodgates of abortion.

"In recent days and weeks, our country has endured great, great hardship," the President continued.
The problem is that President Trump has become his own worst enemy in an election year. "Forty million people are out of work, our cities are on fire… Trump needs to do better, for the country’s sake and his own." Nolte in Breitbart News. And Nolte is correct.

1. Trump had no business hanging on to Redfield, Fauci, Birx, etc. when their COVID fraud had been exposed. They all should have been fired in mid-March. And actually he should have cleaned house back in 2017.

2. He had no business having briefings day after day with the media, and wrangling with those evil reporters to no purpose. That simply weakened his presidential authority, when he has the Oval Office to address the world. He is not obligated to hold press briefings at all, after the press has declared war on Trump.

3. He had no business going after Joe Scarborough (who is totally stupid in any event, and not worth wasting time over). 99% of media people hate him, so he might as well ignore them.

4. He had no business hiring his enemies and then firing them (e.g. Mad Dog Mattis, who just got through trashing Trump publicly). Every general he has hired had to be eventually fired. Not to mention all the inspector generals who should have been sent packing long ago and were kept on to undermine him.

5. And now his Secretary of Defense Esper is defying him.
"Secretary of Defense Mark Esper broke with his superior President Trump saying he opposes using the US Military against the violent far left mobs in cities across the United States."
Will Trump fire him immediately or not? Esper is supposed to obey orders, not defy Trump in the midst of a crisis.Why did he hire Esper in the first place when he could have found a better person?

6. As for the riots, Trump should always have had a well-thought-out and strategic plan for RAPID RESPONSE to riots and apprehension of domestic terrorists. Now it seems that the president does not have control over the country.

7. He did not need to get on the phone with the governors and tell them how weak they were. Leftist governors want chaos and anarchy. He needed to get on the phone with the one trustworthy military man who would have sent the National Guard or soldiers to every city immediately in order to protect citizens and property.

If that is your understanding of "liberal Dem"? If so it is dead wrong. Your description is blasphemous, based on extreme prejudice. I am a liberal Democrat and a serious Christian who follows the leading of the Holy Spirit given to me by Christ.

Specifically, I believe that the government has no right to tell a woman (or a man) what decisions s/he should make regarding their health care. My wife was a certified Nurse-Midwife for many years and experienced many fetal anomalies which, if the pregnancy was not terminated, would have killed the mother. And if she had other children, what then?

Nobody that I know is "pro-sexual perversion". That is just unmitigated slander. John 3:16 says, in part, "For God so loved the world..." It doesn't say "part of the world" but the [entire] world. Jesus, quoting the Old Testament, said "Love your neighbor as yourself". I don't see anywhere that there are exceptions.

I also believe that same-sex marriage is valid. "After David had finished talking with Saul, Jonathan became one in spirit with David, and he loved him as himself." and "One of them, the disciple whom Jesus loved, was reclining next to him." If you don't understand the love that a person can have for someone of the same gender, you should try.

"... anti-law and order"? You're sadly misinformed. Liberal democrats believe strongly about law and order, but are opposed to the illegal use of law and under to punish (including murder) a person without due process of law. Regarding the present situation, the First Amendment guarantees the right of the citizenry to peaceably assemble and petition the government for redress of grievances. Nobody, including the President or his appointees, has the right to override Constitutional freedoms.

The last charge is the worst: "anti-God and church". There is no basis at all for such an extreme statement. I personally don't know anyone, regardless of their political stance, who is anti-God and church. By your making such an extreme statement shows that you are prejudiced and "blind".

Finally, Jesus told us to love God with all our heart, soul, mind and strength and to love our neighbor as ourself. It saddens me that your irrational hatred of others has caused you to violate the second command. Your hatred will cause spiritual death!

This propaganda doesn't merit a response. None of the above has any basis in fact.

Read your Bible and the US Constitution in that order and perhaps, just perhaps, something like scales will fall from your eyes, just like they did from Paul's murderous eyes. He made an effort, because of his murderous hatred, to kill believing "Christians". That's a great lesson for all of us, especially those who have the same naked hatred within us.

This is not Leftist propaganda but sober truth. And everything has been documented within the CONSERVATIVE news media. These are all facts. I was 100% behind Trump when he said he wants to "Make America Great Again". But now that he ( and the country) needs him in that second term, he is doing everything in his power to lose the next election.

I am not suggesting the the economy has suffered under Trump. But if the Communists win the next election by stealing it, the economy won't matter.

Why didn't Bernie Sanders run as an honest Communist under the banner of the Communist Party USA?

upload_2020-6-5_14-30-29.png


Because then he would be clearly identified and rejected. So he pretended to be a Democrat and the unprincipled Democratic party let him pretend and then finally got rid of him. But Biden is as much a Communist as Sanders. The dangers of a rigged and stolen election are not even being targeted by the Trump administration.

Oh NO. @Willie T is apparently recovered! And I thought we were almost rid of him. -- Yeah, just kidding! :)

Welcome back, and hope you're good for at least another year and a half (some 18 months) so that you can see that Scripture REALLY DOES project the Fall of 2021 for the Return of Jesus! :)

Deut. 18:18 I will raise up for them a prophet like you from among their brethren; and I will put my words in his mouth, and he shall speak to them all that I command him. 19 And whoever will not give heed to my words which he shall speak in my name, I myself will require it of him.


Your buddy,
Bobby Jo
