02/01/17 PRESIDENT, NOT PASTOR

02/01/17 PRESIDENT, NOT PASTOR

Sadly, Trump is so out of touch with God and acceptable social decorum that he used profanity in his opening remarks at the National Prayer Breakfast.

Don't be confused, Trump is not a Christian, and don't be confused, he is the President. As the President he is not appointed by God to lead IN the way of salvation (though he should); as a man, he is called to follow in the way of salvation. God will use Trump as President, but God will judge Trump as an individual.

Whatever good comes from Trumps leadership is the direct intervention of God. Trump needs to get saved, but regardless of his concern for God, God is concerned for this world, and is giving this sinking ship of humanity an opportunity to face up to its sins and put its faith in Christ.

2 Peter 3:7-13
(7) But the heavens and the earth, which are now, by the same word are kept in store, reserved unto fire against the day of judgment and perdition of ungodly men.
(8) But, beloved, be not ignorant of this one thing, that one day is with the Lord as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day.
(9) The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance.
(10) But the day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night; in the which the heavens shall pass away with a great noise, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat, the earth also and the works that are therein shall be burned up.
(11) Seeing then that all these things shall be dissolved, what manner of persons ought ye to be in all holy conversation and godliness,
(12) Looking for and hasting unto the coming of the day of God, wherein the heavens being on fire shall be dissolved, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat?
(13) Nevertheless we, according to his promise, look for new heavens and a new earth, wherein dwelleth righteousness.
