8thdaypriest Posted May 16, 2017 Posted May 16, 2017 Watching the news last evening, with all the frenzy of the Democrats over Trump and everything he does or says, it reminded me of Daniel (the prime minister of MedoPersia) and how the other "wise men" worked soooooo hard to pull him down. They even conspired to get him executed in the lion's den. I hope Trump learns quickly, to depend upon the LORD. And I hope the Dems don't end up in their own lion's den. Quote 8thdaypriest

I'm comparing the total commitment to bringing down a president, TO the conspiracy to remove (and literally kill) Daniel (the prime minister). I'm comparing the conspiracy against a ruler. I'm NOT comparing the two men. LifeHiscost and JoeMo 2 Quote 8thdaypriest
CoAspen Posted May 18, 2017 Posted May 18, 2017 Can hardley be called a 'conspiracy'...one only need to listen what comes out of DT's mouth...has the disease, he does!! phkrause 1 Quote
Members phkrause Posted May 19, 2017 Members Posted May 19, 2017 He is bringing himself down, period!!!!! The difference here is that Daniel was a man of God, doing the Lord's work!!!!!

Moderators Jeannieb43 Posted May 28, 2017 Moderators Posted May 28, 2017 New books and OpEd articles are being published on the topic of 'The Case for Impeachment' of Donald Trump. His actions mirror those of some of the previously impeached presidents. phkrause, debbym and GayatfootofCross 3 Quote Jeannie<br /><br /><br />...Change is inevitable; growth is optional....

Those who have questioned your analysis have done so using straw men. They have ignored your point and twisted your words to mean something you never said, nor implied. 8thdaypriest 1 Quote

They have ignored your point and twisted your words to mean something you never said, nor implied. I was NOT SAYING that Donald Trump is a "godly man". (I very much doubt he is.) I was just trying to picture the conspiracy against Daniel, and what popped into my mind was all the frenzy against President Trump. That's it. That's where the comparison ends. God also called Cyrus "His anointed". The OT says very little concerning the character of Cyrus. We know he led a powerful army, that probably killed thousands. What we do know is that Cyrus was "anointed", chosen, empowered - by the LORD - to do a job, to return the Jews to their land, and to support the rebuilding of His Temple. Cyrus' action preserved the Jews as a distinct people, and prepared the way for Messiah. Isaiah 45:1 "Thus says the LORD to His anointed, To Cyrus, whose right hand I have held-- To subdue nations before him And loose the armor of kings, To open before him the double doors, So that the gates will not be shut:" Can you say - with certainty - that the LORD has NOT "anointed" Donald Trump to do a job - that will end up supporting God's people in some way. Perhaps bringing down some horrible dictator regime that persecutes HIS people. We just don't know - yet. JoeMo 1 Quote 8thdaypriest
GayatfootofCross Posted July 1, 2017 Posted July 1, 2017 hmmm ..The same derision and mocking of Obama has come back ten fold. (funny how that works) Trump himself just kept on keeping on slamming the Prez for not actually being a real American with no basis. I remember all the FOX poo and fear and loathing in spades by the tea partyiers and my church and my work and my hometown. Everyone but my hedonistic liberal family it seems. And on the internet. It was ruff to see the stonewalling compounded by "wait n see no drama Obama" and Obama kept his head held high and kept about the kings business. unlike ..well u know Quote For all Eternity God waited in anticipation for You to show up to give You a Message - YOUR INCLUDED !!! { a merry dance }?️?

I stopped 99 percent of that on my own wall. Even though there are a lot of things and words and policies out there of real concern to me and my pic of GOD and His Beloved. I had to stop cause it wasn't good for my heart towards him and .. o dear.. the dog pilings on him will and can work against us all that is HOLY!

Are you sure about that, PK? According to historical transcripts, those guys also made stupid statements daily. And even if they didn't, would it worse to be a foolish talking President of a free Republic than a carefully enunciated, murderous ruler over a captive world? Quote
CoAspen Posted July 8, 2017 Posted July 8, 2017 Two wrongs never make a right. So often peoploe try to make an issue " either-or", when it is neither, to distract from what is apparent. 8thdaypriest and phkrause 2 Quote

Sooo ... what is apparent - that DT is an @$$; that the radical left is trying to neutralize - even assassinate - DT, both of the above, or none of the above? Time will tell. I haven't yet decided where the election of DT will delay the time of the end, expedite it, or have no impact on it whatsoever. Quote
