MY FRIENDS, CAN ANYONE MAKE ANYTHING GREAT AGAIN EXCEPT GOD?
“And all the world wondered after” Donald Trump. “And they worshiped Him thinking He would give them great power saying, who is like unto” Trump? “who is able to make war with him?” My friends, how do you make allegiance with one of the rulers of the darkness of this world simply because he is asking you to believe he will make America “great again.” “All this I will give you,” he says, “if you will bow down and worship me.” Matt. 4:9 (NIV)
But my friends, the greatest want of the world should not to be “great again.” But the greatest want should be that every man woman boy and girl has a personal relationship with God, someone “who will not be bought or sold, men [and women] who in their inmost souls are true and honest, men [and women] who do not fear to call sin by its right name, men [and women] whose conscience is as true to duty as the needle to the pole, men [and women] who will stand for the right though the heavens fall.” (E.G. White, Education pp 57)
If these are Trumps characteristic then please listen to His message. But if [he] speaks not according to the word [of God], it is because there is no light in Him.” Is. 8:20 (KJV) “The Emperor’s New Clothes” “is a short tale by Hans Christian Andersen about two weavers who promise an emperor a new suit of clothes that is invisible to those who are unfit for their positions, stupid, or incompetent.
When the Emperor parades before his subjects in his new clothes, no one dares to say that they don’t see any suit of clothes until a child cries out, “But
he isn’t wearing anything at all!” (Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia) Trump on the outside spiritually “is not wearing anything.” And only if you seek Gods presence daily through prayer and His word while asking His Spirit to lead and guide you in all truth and understanding will you understand this.
Christ tells us Every plant, which my heavenly Father hath not planted, shall be rooted up. Let them alone: they be blind leaders of the blind. And if the blind lead the blind, both shall fall into the ditch….. Remember my friends, those things which proceed out of the mouth come forth from the heart; and they defile the man.” Matt. 15:13-18 (NKJV) So my friends those who are following Trump must ask themselves; what is coming out of his mouth that would make me want to follow him as a leader.
Now it’s personal because if you are a child of God to hear the words “Make America Great Again.” “Again,” which in the context of what Trump is saying, refers to a greater time, and a greater place in our history. But my bible says, “For here we have no lasting city, but we seek the city that is to come.” Heb. 13:14 (ESV) So nothing behind or in front of us in regards to this world we should seek except the second coming of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.
My friends, our mission statement, mission meaning “an important goal or purpose that is accompanied by our strong conviction” must be “I count all things but loss for the excellency of the knowledge of Christ Jesus my Lord: for whom I have suffered the loss of all things, and do count them but dung, that I may win Christ,” Phil 3:8 (KJV) All things meaning “all to Jesus I surrender.” All of my time, talents and money and most of all, all of our heart. A heart, that dies to self-daily and lives a life through Christ, Jesus the one who gave it all for our salvation.
