Just gonna point out the obvious here but...
It's so bizarre to me that someone could possibly look at Trump and think "yep, this is a godly man who is going to save us from the forces of evil".
As always, the Bible lets them think two things at once.
King David had a good man killed so David could grab his wife.
Noah was a drunk.
Lot was a drunk who slept with his daughters.
God uses bad men to give his divine message.
Wait I though that Lot was raped by his daughters, admittedly after getting piss drunk.
So you're saying he's a drunk who had nonconsensual sex with his daughters?
In that they raped him, yes.
Yeah, I was aiming for technically correct.
Could it be because God is a bad man?
Nope.
Because god is a woman. Prove me wrong.
(Heh, still not good, though.)
God was invented in our own image. The predominant culture that invented the Abrahamic god was patriarchal. As a reflection of that culture, god is a man. QED, bitches.
prove it.
I say god was a crossdressing woman with a fake beard and a horribly fake Scottish accent. (okay. I'd watch that movie...)
God is made in my image, and I'm not a crossdressing woman with a fake beard and horribly fake Scottish accent. Check and mate.
Like the Bible says, the anti Christ is Godly.
Also John 3:16 is a perfect call out.
"Similarly, in the end times, the evil False Prophet will cause everyone, regardless of social or economic status, to choose whether to receive a mark on the right hand and on the forehead. This mark will identify the recipients as belonging to the kingdom of the beast."
Kinda like a MAGA hat huh?
