    Default Jim Bakker: God Is Using Trump To Test Your Faith In The Lord

    On his television program today, End Times prepper pastor and convicted criminal Jim Bakker declared that support for President Trump is a test from God of one’s faith in Him. Jim Bakker was convicted of 24 fraud and conspiracy counts. Mr. Bakker bilked followers of his PTL Ministry out of $158 million by offering promises of lifetime vacations he could not provide and that he diverted about $3.7 million to support an opulent lifestyle that ranged from oddities like an air-conditioned dog house to luxuries like a fleet of Mercedeses and Rolls-Royces.

    “Do you know why church people and millions of other people do not understand Donald Trump, that God could use him?” he asked. “They don’t know God. They don’t know God. They don’t know this book [the Bible] one iota.”

    “He used the unlovely, He used the unacceptable, He used the people that no one would vote for,” Bakker continued. “We don’t get God. God uses the impossible.”

    “He picked a president,” Bakker added. “He is testing; your evaluation of Almighty God is going on. God picks the unusual. God picks the one that no one else would pick.”
    Judge Juan M. Merchan wrote that Trump “appears to take the position that his situation and this case are unique and that the pre-trial publicity will never subside. However, this view does not align with reality.”

    I concur, they don't know God. One thing I learned from 2016...

    When I was a kid my grandmother was very poor. She still sent money to Jim Baker. Who let him out of jail?

    There is "scriptural precedent" for someone to have an opinion such as this. The only way that God speaks to man today is through the inspired word of truth delivered to man once for all time....this direct communication ended when the last "appointed" Apostle of Christ died. Just as the Scriptures declare. The word was to be delivered but once (Jude 3). It was delivered to the saints of the 1st century for the specific reason that people who never had the chance to encounter the Christ in the flesh might believe, have faith. The "book"..i.e., the Bible, the Law, the record of ordinances exists for the very reason of building faith. (John 20:30-31)

    The truth found in that record is confirmed by the eye witness accounts of those who witnessed the miracles that followed that truth. When the need for that conformation ceased, when the Book, record, was complete with enough revelation from Heaven needed to provide man with all that is required to find salvation....the miraculous ceased. Thus there is no miraculous communication between God and man today. But there is still communication. Today God speaks to man through the record concerning Christ Jesus....that record can be found only in one place...THE BOOK.


    Today when we speak of doctrine or spiritual things in order to "enlighten" the ignorant....we are to speak as the oracles of God speak....i.e., speak the truth found in scripture. (1 Peter 4:11)

    Now on to the point about scriptural precedence for believing that God does use governments to His own ends, even secular governments.

    The scriptures make it clear......the doctrine required of every Christian to believe includes the documented record that God does use the governments of the world to manipulate His will.
    Governments exist by the authority of God (Romans 13:1-2) Christians can serve in government and still hold unto their Christian faith as per the example provided of individuals doing just that in the 1st century (Luke 19:2)...even tax collectors can be Christians. Even Soldiers can be Christians, in fact the very first gentile convert, 10 years after Christianity began...was a Roman Solider who commanded at least a 1000 men under him. (Acts 10)

    The Bible tells us that God allows governments to punish evil doers even to the point of invoking capital punishment (Romans 13:4). As "vengeance belongs to God, not the Christian" (Rom. 12:9)

    Besides the record of Paul as just presented, the record of Peter also confirms that God uses the governments to punish evil doers (1 Peter 2:14), "....or to governors, as to those who are sent by Him for the punishment of evildoers and for the praise for those who do good."

    Thus....would it surprise any real Christian if God decided to punish these evil leftists that are allowing EVIL to flow across our southern borders and murder our innocent men, women and children?



    Believe what you will....But....as we speak, Soldiers under the command of the POTUS are being sent to the southern border for the specific reason of protecting our US CITIZENS because congress and certain other rebel states refuse to do it for political and personal gain.

    “The Bible is the word of God"
    "How can you be sure it's the word of God?"
    "Because the Bible tells us so"
    "Why believe the Bible?
    "The Bible is infallible"
    "How do you know it's infallible?"...

    Same old debunked (ad nauseam) parroted talking points? That's all ya got? Asked and answered countless times. Its infallible because "you" are incapable of objectively refuting one word found therein. As proven time and time again.
