Deniz22: For it's Tommy this, an' Tommy that, an' Chuck him out, the brute!"
But it's "Saviour of 'is country" when the guns begin to shoot
Dennis Clough
So the quote is from Rudyard Kipling's poem about British soldiers (nicknamed "Tommy") and the trouble they caused in town when not at war.

I see a correlation here between Trump and "Tommy". Both parties subject to criticism (and deservedly so to a degree), but oh my, what a difference "when the guns begin to shoot!"
Our country needs a strong leader who will not be intimidated by our many enemies, both foreign and domestic. We are the greatest country in the world because of the blessing of God through faith in Jesus Christ.
As Christians, we should not hold Donald's past against him in as much as we well know, but for the grace of God in Christ, we would not have been forgiven for our own history of sin.
You may have no taste for Donald, but remember, the "guns have already begun to shoot" and the Bible warns that historically unseen calamities are prophesied by none other than Jesus Christ Himself. I am convinced and would ask you to consider Donald Trump is God's man for such a time as this, and yet God is our ultimate strength and hope.
God bless you and God bless America!

Deniz22: The Bible is God's Word. In Proverbs 1, He promises to help you understand it if you turn to Him.

And yes, He does uses others who understand His Word to help us understand Him.

Deniz22: 17 Now the Lord is that Spirit: and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is liberty.
18 But we all, with open face beholding as in a glass the glory of the Lord, are changed into the same image from glory to glory, even as by the Spirit of the Lord. (2 Corinthians 3:17,18)

COMMENT: You won?t find these verses in any discipleship manual. Contemplate this truth and allow the Spirit to transform you more and more into His image as you read it in context. This IS the ?new wine? Christ promised for new born-again people!

Comfort in Suffering

3 Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of mercies and God of all comfort, 4 who comforts us in all our tribulation, that we may be able to comfort those who are in any trouble, with the comfort with which we ourselves are comforted by God. 5 For as the sufferings of Christ abound in us, so our consolation also abounds through Christ. 6 Now if we are afflicted, it is for your consolation and salvation, which is effective for enduring the same sufferings which we also suffer. Or if we are comforted, it is for your consolation and salvation. 7 And our hope for you is steadfast, because we know that as you are partakers of the sufferings, so also you will partake of the consolation.
