I was just sent this article by a patriot and
Christian friend and because I thought it was well worth reading I am
sharing it. Thanks for reading.
Before you vote please read this article .... it won't
take you long, and if you agree, please send it on to your friends.
This may be the best and most honest political
promotion statement you will ever read. It decidedly does not brush
objections aside. You hate Hillary? READ it. You hate
Trump? READ it. You think there's no choice? READ it.
And, read it with your grown-up hat on.
We've all been dealt huge responsibility with this
election. The first step toward accepting responsibility is accepting it,
and the first step toward accepting it is recognizing it. READ
THIS. Read every single word. It'll take you about three minutes.
Be sure to read to the end.
Are you sickened and despondent with the current
campaign and upcoming presidential election? I consider myself a conservative
and do truly believe our country is at a political/economic/moral/ social
crossroads. I need to let you know I could/would never vote for Hillary Clinton
to lead this country.
To me, she represents everything that is wrong with
our current political structure. On the flip side, I look and listen to
Donald Trump and I cringe at every rude, insulting comment he makes.
If you find yourself in a similar state of mind,
please read the following article: A Message For Christians About Donald Trump
Here's a famous joke about God and how he talks to us.
"A deeply faithful Christian man is stuck on roof at home with massive
flooding up to the 2nd floor. Rowboat comes. He says "No, I'm waiting for
God. I prayed and I know he's coming." 2nd Rowboat. "No, I'm
waiting for God." 3rd Rowboat. "No, I'm waiting for God." Water
rises. The man drowns. Now he's meeting God in heaven. The religious man says,
"Where were you God? I prayed. I was faithful. I asked you to save me. Why
would you abandon me?" God says, "Hey, I sent you 3 rowboats." Did
you ever consider Trump is our rowboat?
Maybe God is trying to tell us something
important--that now is not the time for a "nice Christian guy" or a
"gentleman" or a typical Republican powder puff. Maybe now is the
time for a natural born killer, a ruthless fighter, a warrior. Because right
about now we need a miracle, or America is finished. Maybe the rules of
gentlemen don't apply here. Maybe a gentleman and "all-around nice
Christian" would lead us to slaughter.
Or do you want another Mitt Romney, Bob Dole, John McCain,
Gerald Ford or Paul Ryan? Did any of them win? Did they lead the GOP to
"the promised land?" Did they change the direction of America? No,
because if you don't win, you have no say. Paul Ryan couldn't even deliver his
own state, Wisconsin! And as leader of the House, Paul Ryan rolls over to Obama
like my dog rolls over for a scrap of food, or a steak bone. Nice, but
obedient. I mean Paul Ryan...not my dog. My dog is actually a pretty good
defender and loyal.
Maybe God is knocking on your door loudly, but you're
not listening. Maybe God understands we need a "war leader" at this
moment in time. Maybe God understands if we don't win this election, America is
dead. It's over. The greatest nation in world history will be gone. Finished.
Kaput. Adios. And with one last breath, maybe what we need to save us at the
last second, is someone different. Someone you haven't ever experienced
before-- because you weren't raised in rough and tumble New York where nothing
good gets accomplished unless you're combative, aggressive, outrageous, on
offense at all times, and maybe just a tad arrogant too.
Someone with a personality you've never seen on stage
at your church. Maybe, just maybe, being a nice gentlemanly Christian would not
beat Hillary and her billion dollars, and her best friends in the media who
will unleash the dogs of hell upon the GOP nominee.
I guess you think God is only nice and gentlemanly.
Really? Then you've missed the whole point of the Bible. When necessary, God is
pretty tough. When necessary, God strikes with pain, death and destruction.
When necessary, God inflicts vengeance.
Maybe you think God couldn't possibly be associated
with someone like Trump. Trump is too vicious, rude and crude. When we won
WWII, was God "nice?" Were we gentlemanly when defeating Hitler? Were
we gentlemanly when firebombing Germany? Were we gentlemanly when dropping
atomic bombs on Japan? Is God ever "nice" on the battlefield? Or does
he send us vicious SOB's like General George S. Patton so the good guys can
defeat evil? It's pretty clear to me God sends unique people to be "war
leaders." That's a different role than a pastor or church leader. God
understands that.
And maybe it's time to re-define "nice."
Maybe Mitt Romney and Paul Ryan aren't nice at all--because they led us to
defeat. And losing again would mean the end of America. And God can't allow
that. Maybe Romney and Ryan mean well, but the road to hell is paved with good
intentions. Or maybe they're just jealous they had their chance and blew it. Maybe
they'd rather help elect Hillary than allow a Trump victory that would make
them look weak, feckless and incompetent. "Even the youths shall faint and
be weary, And the young men shall utterly fall, But those who wait on the Lord
shall renew their strength; They shall mount up with wings like eagles, They
shall run and not be weary, They shall walk and not faint." (Isiah
40:30-31)
God is about miracles. We don't need a "nice
guy" or a "gentleman" right now. It's the 4th quarter and we're
losing 14-0. We need a miracle.
