Singapore Friend Shares Words of Wisdom about President Trump and the Coming Great Reset

 A contact in Singapore felt a great burden to share the following videos with me, and asked me to provide them in succesion, one after another, so that everyone would understand how President Trump and the current world events all relate to the Coming of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.

Here is the first video, in which President Trump was talking about our need for Jesus. This declaration came during a campaign stop in North Carolina.

In this video, prophet Kim Clement talks about the coming of President Trump:

In this last video, a pastor in the United States talks about the growing encroachment of the New World Order, the One World Government under Anti-Christ. The shocking, totalitarian steps taking over in the United States and around the world should cause everyone to pay close attention:

Stop Listening to Our Fathers--and Start Listening to The Father

 We have to get past the knowledge of our parents and go to the wisdom of God the Father.

For the longest time, I vacillated between the opinions of my mother and my father. I have only recently learned how wrong they BOTH were, on so many issues.

Unlike many people, I have no problem looking past the two options which are usually placed before us on a number of issues.

I have gotten more accustomed to recognizing that whatever ideas are presented in an either/or fashion, there is often a great way to come up with other options in the midst of them, or outside of their scope entirely.

I don't feel the need to be bitter toward my parents. I realize what they did not know about the Gospel of Grace, and what I have learned today because I have learned so much from the preaching of Pastor Joseph Prince and Pastor Bob George, among many others. So grateful for their work in restoring the Gospel of Grace, that Jesus has finished the Work and given us Himself.

Amen!

We need to seek not the wisdom of our fathers, but the Father. We need the love of the Father, not just the love of our earthly fathers. This is not to disparage the work and the witness of the men and women who raised us. 

But no matter what we are facing, not matter what we have learned, we need the love of THE Father!

"Love not the world, neither the things that are in the world. If any man love the world, the love of the Father is not in him." (1 John 2:15)

The wisdom of our earthly fathers cannot compare with the Wisdom of the Father. In fact, let us never forget that "Christ is our wisdom" (1 Corinthians 1:30)

One final thought ...

I have listened to so many older men talk about their convictions and beliefs, and many of them acknowledge that their beliefs come from what their fathers told them. "I know that William F. Buckley was a racist, because my father said so, and my father would never tell a lie."

Perhaps your father did not lie to you, but what he said was not true. 

Consider also what my father used to say about lying: "My father told me not to lie, because you are too stupid to keep track of your lies."

But what does the Bible say about lying?

"Wherefore putting away lying, speak every man truth with his neighbour: for we are members one of another." (Ephesians 4:25)

and

"Lie not one to another, seeing that ye have put off the old man with his deeds;" (Colossians 3:9)

We don't tell lies because they are not commensurate with our new nature, our new identity, our new creation as Christ's own, adopted into the Family of God.

We need to stop listening to our fathers, and start listening to the Father!

Young People Are Rightly Angry, But For the Wrong Reasons

 Young people are raging in the streets.

They see inequality all around them, and they have been told for years that if they work hard, study hard, that they can be just are rich and well-off as the guys next to them. If they follow a certain formula, then they can be as rich and well-connected as Elon Musk or Kanye West.

They see the growing inequities (from their point of view), they see the lost opportunities, and they feel cheated.

You know what? They have a point.

Telling young people that the way to freedom, fortune, and financial success is through their own hard work has left out one of the most important, if not the most important element:

GOD'S FAVOR. GOD'S AMAZING GRACE!

Kanye West may not know it (yet), and Elon Musk may not care. Mark Zuckerberg may not even believe in God for all I know, and for the time being he certainly does not believe in Grace and Truth personified, named Jesus Christ ...

But they all received God's favor in some fashion, and allowed His favor to flow in their lives. Does this sound unreasonable? Does this sound un-Biblical? Consider what Jesus said on the Sermon on the Mount:

"That ye may be the children of your Father which is in heaven: for he maketh his sun to rise on the evil and on the good, and sendeth rain on the just and on the unjust." (Matthew 5:45)

Consider even what the Preacher shared:

"I returned, and saw under the sun, that the race is not to the swift, nor the battle to the strong, neither yet bread to the wise, nor yet riches to men of understanding, nor yet favour to men of skill; but time and chance happeneth to them all." (Ecclesiastes 9:11)

Good things happen to people who are in the right place at the right time. That's also very much based on and depends on God's favor. Wealthy people, accomplished actors, successful businessmen all took advantage of a situation--right place, right time--to get where they are. It was not their skills, their smarts, but God's goodness.

We need God, we need the grace of God to be successful. It's not luck, chance, or fortune, but many of the world's wealthiest people took advantage of the grace of God by allowing His supernatural power to flow in their lives. They were not trying to be obedience to laws, since for everyone person who is under law, that person ends up under the curse (Galatians 3:10)

God's favor is freely falling on the whole world. His sun-shining Love and His free-falling grace is coming upon the whole world. 

Yet the corporate, academic, man-centered, bureaucratic world has taught people that they need to follow rules, fit in, do what they are told in order to succeed.

No!

So many young people have been told that there is one key track for success in life, and that track goes right through college. I went to college, and I even went through a graduate training program to get a teaching credential. Yet the work, the career, the calling that I have been following has nothing to do with my credential or my majors in college.

Today, there are millions of young people who have graduated, who have lots of debt, who were told that they can study just about any subject and they would be on a fast-track to a good-paying job. They were also told that by fighting for a good career, and trying to start a good family, that they would have everything the defines success.

Yet we do not find good success in the world or through our man-centered, self-centered self-efforts. Just read the first nine chapters of Ecclesiastes, and listen to the moanings and wailings of a man who had literally everything, and found it to be nothing but vanity.

What does give us good success?

"The blessing of the LORD makes one rich, And He adds no sorrow with it." (Proverbs 10:22)

and

"This book of the law shall not depart out of thy mouth; but thou shalt meditate therein day and night, that thou mayest observe to do according to all that is written therein: for then thou shalt make thy way prosperous, and then thou shalt have good success." (Joshua 1:8)

and of course:

"Beloved, I wish above all things that thou mayest prosper and be in health, even as thy soul prospereth." (3 John 2)

God is interested above all in our soul prosperity, for without the prosperity within, there is no value in any prosperity without:

"For what shall it profit a man, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul?" (Mark 8:36)

God wants us to prosper, but we have to allow Him to prosper us on the inside.

And that happens when we walk in the truth:

"3For I rejoiced greatly, when the brethren came and testified of the truth that is in thee, even as thou walkest in the truth. 4I have no greater joy than to hear that my children walk in truth." (3 John 3-4)

How do we walk in the truth? We believe the Gospel of Grace (Galatians 1:6), that we believe that we have been justified from all things that we cannot be justified by through the law of Moses (Acts 13:38-39)

So, yes, indeed, young people are understandably angry, in that they have been taught that relying fully, solely, exceptionally on their efforts will all but ensure them the success that they were promised in this life.

But that success can only come by faith in Christ. There is no other way. There is no relying exclusively on one's own smarts, one's own habits. It takes the proper connection of time and chance, or happenings that happen, as the original Hebrew bears out in the book of Ecclesiastes.

Young people should not start blaming "the rich" for their problems, simply because they think that "the rich" had all the breaks while they are going broke. In fact, if more people were wiling to walk with some degree of wisdom, they would have fewer problems at the outset. God's wisdom is free, and freely available to entreat:

"But the wisdom that is from above is first pure, then peaceable, gentle, and easy to be intreated, full of mercy and good fruits, without partiality, and without hypocrisy." (James 3:17)

God does not shame anyone for asking for His wisdom, either:

"If any of you lack wisdom, let him ask of God, that giveth to all men liberally, and upbraideth not; and it shall be given him." (James 1:5)

Ted Cruz Chooses Wisely, Votes for Donald Trump

Ted Cruz is a real mensch – or should I write caballero?

Despite the pain and conflicts of the primary season, he is now voting for Trump.

His story is legendary, especially in connection with his impressive, pious, and persuasive father Rafael.

I admit at the outset that he was not my first choice for President. Kurt Schlichter and other conservative bloggers feared that he did not have the national appeal to sweep the country they way that Donald Trump has.

That means nothing to me right now, and I am of the ardent opinion that after another term in the United States Senate (I want him to win, and I am glad that he is already fundraising for his re-election bid).

What was it about Ted Cruz, though, that had so excited me about a Presidential candidate, almost as much as I wanted Scott Walker to win?

1. He stood up to the Democratic and Republican Establishment, without fear of recrimination, in the press or among his colleagues.

2. He has been an outspoken defender of liberty. His fight against the international socialist takeover of the Internet has gotten too little attention, in my view.

3. He voices the concerns of the silent majority. The only setback between him and Trump is that the real estate mogul from Manhattan had commanded the mainstream media with masterful puppetry. A US Senator from Texas cannot count on the desperate media cover the way that Donald took it away.

4. Conservative wags along with Main Street wage earners simply did not know enough about him.

Does that mean he could not have served as a fit and faithful chief executive? Not at all.

In the end, the other liability weighing down his Presidential bid was his lack of time on the national stage, the same problem which hurt Scott Walker, Bobby Jindal, and other outspoken conservatives.

His most admirable moments during the Presidential primary did not get the attention they deserved, either.

Of all the Republicans hustling for voters during the Iowa caucuses, he was the only candidate who refused to support ethanol subsidies. That stance is normally a deal-breaker. Yet Cruz faced off against an ethanol farmer, who firmed told the Cuban-American from Texas: “You are going to lose Iowa.”

Why? Because Cruz refused to bow down to Big Corn and Big Agra.

Instead of pushing aside this outraged voter, Cruz explained, cogently and respectfully, that he was not opposed to ethanol per se. He supported all forms of energy exploration and production. He was dead-set against the subsidies, however, and not just for corn, but for all energy companies and corporate interests.

Isn’t that the war-cry of the Occupy Movement, the Tea Party, and the outraged No Longer Silent Majority?  They are tired of seeing a few well-connected companies pulling the strings of elected officials through a well-financed phalanx of lobbyists.

Cruz opposed this corrupt cartel, and he explained this opposition so effectively, winning over a would-be opponent in the crucial Iowa caucuses.

And he won.

Cruz would struggle in the next three primaries, in part because there were so many candidates punching at each other, while Trump was riding the wave of free media coverage over this fray.

Cruz got back into gear in Texas. He launched some of the most incredible advertising and marketing. He was on the upswing in other key states, like Idaho, Alaska, and then Maine. Who would have thought that a consistent conservative like Cruz would carry away a key win in New England? That unprecedented win has signaled the growing ruby-red groundswell taking over the Pine Tree State. A Republican has not won general election electoral votes in Maine in three decades. Trump is bound to win at least one this time, and he can thank Cruz for helping to make that happen.

But Cruz’ chances crashed in New York State, and then the ACELA primaries that followed (Delaware, Pennsylvania, Maryland, Connecticut, Rhode Island). Why? He exuded a magisterial, academic temperament. He demonstrated an admirable resume married with a quick wit and profound knowledge. Plus he was a stellar debater who silenced the most ardent critics, both on the debate stage, and in public gatherings.

But elections are all about heart-to-heart. Brilliant minds alone do not end in the winner’s circle.

I remember his last fight for votes. In Indiana, another deep red state with the same bent of fiscal and social conservatism, but also married with a turn towards populist sentiment and pragmatic outreach. Cruz couldn’t climb out of the 20% level, and he would later drop out.

It was crushing and sad.

He stood his ground before a large crowd of pro-Trump hecklers, who had chanted “Lying Ted” and mocked his wife’s former connections with Goldman Sachs. Instead of running away, he faced them the same way he answered the Iowa ethanol farmer. How had he ever lied? One which issues did Indiana voters quibble with him?

He never wavered from his conservative convictions, even after dropping out of the race.

I admire Ted Cruz so much. I had no quarrel with his decision not to officially endorse Trump for President at the Convention. How would any of us have felt if someone had directly attacked our loved ones?

Such is politics, but we are human beings, too, and we command respect from our fellows regardless of the circumstances—or pledges.

Today, I admire Senator Cruz’ decision to announce his support for Trump.

Ted CRUZ! (Credit: Gage Skidmore)

After all, #NeverHillary is the battle cry of this election season, too, along with “Make America Great Again.”

While Cruz did not catch on with the electorate the way that Trump did, his outreach and record outline what an incredible conservative, and compelling statesman, he truly is.

Senator Cruz, thank you for inspiring more unity in your party and in your country. I recognize that you are already Making America Great Again, and if you ever want to run for President again, rest assured you will have my vote!
