The great revealing

THE GREAT REVEALING

Ok, here are few things that are going on right now pertaining to this election etc.
As always, I let this sit for a while, because it sometimes takes a while for discernment to function unhindered and for revelation to flow freely. This is why I know, that people will appreciate the sobriety in this post.

Many in the church are being silent because they fear the enemy is trying to divide us over this issue. I understand that concern.
There is another problem, that is at work at a much deeper level:
I do not believe a leader in the church who does not share biblical convictions because of fear that he might lose influence is fit to be a leader.
I say that again: I do not believe that a leader who is afraid of speaking pertaining to very important biblical convictions because of fear that he might lose influence is fit to be a leader.

First of all, there is division already. The man-made attempts to unify everything and everyone have failed terribly. That’s because it lacks a supernatural element and unity can only come through revival in the first place - but even then - most often, it is first a separation and divisive. (I’m not even going into the large segments of the church who pray for revival but then they get jealous or envious when it happens somewhere else or in another way, that’s another post)

I dont think there is a division in the church over this election.

IT IS A REVEALING

Perhaps you are wondering at this point, why I - as an Austrian, write about this.
First of all, what is happening in America will effect all of us. Second, I have an international mandate as a minister of the gospel

Why do people vote in the first place? People vote, or should vote, based on their own personal convictions. So, what is a „conviction“?
Cambridge dictionary defines it as such: A conviction is a strong belief that is not likely to change.
I would add to that, a conviction is not based on sentiments. It is based on what you understand to be facts. While there is often passion involved - and that’s fine - it is based on values. Hold that thought.

Where do values come from?
Where do non-Christians - „unbelievers“ - get their convictions from? They get it from sources outside of the bible. The bible tells us, that all of that basically is under the influence of the „god of this world (2. Cor. 4:4). There are no grey areas, its just like that. While that doesn’t mean, that the media for example lies necessarily every single time and on every single occasion, it does mean that they are under the influence of lying spirits.
Where do christians get their convictions from?
They get it from the bible (if they read it regularly, best daily). Christian convictions are being formed as a result of being in fellowship with God and from being a student of the Word of God.

As a leader, as a pastor, and first and foremost - as a follower if Jesus - I began to truly wonder quite some time ago, where someone who votes for killing Babies, teaching children transgenderism, a long history of suppression of freedom of speech, and dictatorship-like ideologies and beliefs - where such a person really stands with God. Besides, the Democratic Party in America has a long history of racism, that goes way beyond a few impulsive statements from Donald Trump. The republicans ended slavery, were the first ones that put black people into places of power, and historically work towards keeping a government small so that the people have more power, while the democrats want a big government and dependency from the people on that government. The bigger the government, the more it goes towards dictatorship, the smaller the government, the more freedom there really is. Its really that simple and I hope you get that. It is an overwhelming fact, that Trump and his party are „more biblical“ so to speak, than the other party. And if a Christian, who lives in fellowship with God, studies the bible regularly, will vote which he should, he will vote for the party that is „more biblical“ than the other one.

But what about the social aspects like feeding the poor, caring for others etc.? now listen carefully - the church and humanitarian organisations should do that - again - THE PEOPLE, NOT THE GOVERNMENT! You see that? And they have done that, historically!
Questions: Why do christians cater now self-righteously and humanistically towards a government that tries to take the job of what the church should do? _______ Exactly.

Some people are saying,
„No matter who is elected - Jesus is still King“. Duuhh, He really is. Unfortunately, its not that simple. Furthermore, people who say that, are most often just unwilling to deal with complicated issues. Let me remind you that Jesus was still king, when Stalin murdered hundreds of millions of people. Jesus was still king. Jesus was King during USSR era that meant gulag and death for millions of people. Jesus was still king when Hitler did away with freedom of speech and murdered millions of people that didn´t agree with him. Fascism & communism historically control all narratives to determine exactly what ‘truth’ the people will hear. It is a lie that Trump is a fascist. Because fascists, very much like communists, seek a governmental structure that controls nations. And he is trying to do the opposite. But there are strong indicators, however, that the Democratic Party seeks a marxist/communist model, which is much closer to fascism than most people realize.
Am I comparing the democrats with Stalin and Hitler? Indirectly, and here is why: it is a strong fact, that Harris and many ideas not only believe in a Marxist ideology mentally, they follow it strongly. Trump is a business man who wants to make money and create lots of jobs, and he sure did. For everyone. This is why he has such support from African American people, Hispanic people etc. as well, but you probably didnt know that.

Christians say to honor the government leaders, but they sure dont honor Trump. That’s why I can’t take those Christians seriously - and no one should. The problem again is, they base their convictions on sentiment, not on facts.

Others say, „We should not talk about this, we need to focus on extending Gods kingdom. Let me inform you, we just saw more than 12.000 people come to Christ through our ministry last week. I’m all about extending Gods kingdom. This is final harvest.

But I’m also all about truth, and you have to remember - the devil is the father of lies. There are less gray areas than we think. It is Gods will that Donald J. Trump would be a president for a second term. It is best for the cause of the gospel. If he doesn’t end up being president a second-term, it means Gods will didnt come to pass. Gods will does NOT always come to pass. People go to hell, but it is His will that they end up saved. People stay sick, but it is His will that they’d be healed. In the same way, God can have a plan for a nation, but it doesn’t mean it automatically comes to pass.

Others are now bashing prophets who declared a supposed word from God that trump will get re-elected. I believe those prophets were right. I’ve traveled over years in all of the different streams of the church and I found out that generally, many people who are strong in faith dont understand prophetic ministry and need to open up more for it, and many people who are strongly prophetic dont understand faith and that’s why they shrink back from what God showed them in the first place because they dont understand they also need to believe for it to come to pass.

Biden is not yet president
Perhaps he will be, perhaps he won’t. When he is elected president, I will pray for him as the bible tells us to. Until then, I pray for him that he repents so that he won’t end up in hell

I can be a fact-checker too, in fact yesterday I deleted a post in a group called Revival in Austria from a christian website that said Biden is president. It is not a fact yet, because media does not declare a President. Declaring a US-presidential winner is a months-long process. That process essentially involves Americans voting for electors, the electors voting for the president, and then Congress declaring the winner. I shouldn’t as an Austrian understand that better than some Americans.

The president of the United States right now has a responsibility to uncover every possibility of fraud - for the simply fact that so many situations point to that not being only a possibility, but that it most likely happened. That’s his job. If there is no fraud, then people shouldn’t be so outraged about it. So, lets just see what happens

So what is the great revealing, it is the fact that many christians are applauding now for the 2 most anti-christian presidential and vice presidential candidates in history of America and they say it is because they are christians.
