STAND!

by | Aug 5, 2019 | Christianity Today | 64 comments

Evangelical leaders hailed Trump as a type of King Cyrus.  Now they are bailing on him because they can’t take the heat.   Just when he needs the church the most they abandon ship.

Fellow preachers, do we need to be reminded about the miracle we saw on election night?  For weeks, we were told he had no chance to win.  Have you forgotten how close we came to a nuclear winter called Hillary?

Do we need to be reintroduced to the obvious?  Look at who hates him, and you will find every reason to stand with him.  The same people that hate Israel, hate Trump.  The same people who want to kill Trump, want to kill the unborn.  The same people that want to silence Trump, want to silence the church.

Pastor, his enemies are your enemies.  Those who want to stop his policies, also want to stop your vision.

He tweets.  Get over it!  When virtually every news outlet lies about him…how else will he get the truth out?

He is rough and crude.  So, what?  Draining the swamp in Washington is not the job for your breathy voiced yoga instructor.   Trump is the strong medicine God chose.

He has enraged all the usual suspects:  Teacher’s unions, socialist hippies, gas bag college professors, and all the cuckoo caucuses infesting our halls of government.

I want to remind my esteemed yet timid colleagues our children are getting a nutty education.  Life doesn’t hand out participation trophies.  Life won’t let you retreat to your safe place.  Do you honestly believe that the drivel doled by leftists in the name of “education” will teach hard work, perseverance, and character?

Trump’s determination to make us strong in a hostile world is condemned as “nationalism.”  His campaign to make education rational is condemned as “out of date.”  Only drug addled moonbeams can find fault with common sense.

Our morally bankrupt leaders don’t know how to solve problems.  My generation put a man on the moon—this generation put a man in the girl’s bathroom.   I am not attacking transgender people. I am illustrating how—when it comes to priorities—liberalism rots the brain.  With the life-threatening problems we face they focus on this?

In the next 90 days we will see the most blatant attack—in our history—on everything we value as believers.

The last thing President Trump should feel right now is that he is alone.  He must feel the fervent prayers of the Body of Christ.  He must hear your voice supporting his valiant moves to unwind the snake Obama wrapped around the throat of our democracy.

Dear preacher did you support Trump because of a fad fever?  Are you silent because of the backlash?  If you believe Trump is a miracle, and a type of King Cyrus, then act like it!  Seize this divine opportunity to stand with policies that best reflect our values.  Don’t chicken out now that the heat is on.

I never voted for Trump because I heard some goose-bump prophecy.  I came to my decision in prayer.  I studied history.  I saw us sinking into the same quicksand that ended prior nations.  I looked at our choices and it was crystal clear that Trump was not just the best choice—he was the only choice.  He still is.

      I give thanks for you my brother for telling it like it is in the Evangelical world!! God Bless You immensely and may those that left him hear from Heaven and come back to support him.!!

    • Joyce Turner

      Thank you, brother, for this awesome word of TRUTH! My heart breaks for him and he is daily in my prayers! I will NOT abandon him! He needs us now to so very much! The only way those of us who love him can help shoulder his load is through the Spirit. The flesh part of me would love to go to Washington and knock some heads together but the weapons of our warfare are not carnal but mighty through God to the pulling down of strongholds! I stand with Him and with you, Brother Mario, and appreciate that there’s one preacher who’s not afraid of losing numbers because he speaks truth!

  1. Carol Slover

    Thank you for that awesome word. What I love about you Mario is that you don’t pull any punches. You are not afraid to tell it like it is.
    I would love to be in one of your services.

    What has happened has scales come over our eyes too, theres one Spirit the Holy Spirit we should be following, and we can’t have 15 different choices theres one, the man God put in office, I have never been so disgusted in a people in my life, it’s Trump or death to the Church and this nation. and I am going to shut up, right there, believe me, I could say a lot more, some people need to find out what spirit they are of.

    • Wanda

      Amen Roger culwell

    • Suzanne Bonne'

      Thank you Roger Culwell! Amen.

  3. Tracy

    Amen! GOD bless you, Sir! Thank you for speaking truth and not cowering to the left. I believe Donald Trump was put in office by GOD and the Body of CHRIST needs to start interceding for him and backing him up. Standing with you, Mario, and very happy to see you connected to Lance Wallnau. Have been following him for the last 4 years and I think the two of you can really ignite some things, with Holy Spirit’s help, to get this movement going!

    • Leslie

      Grace, peace and mercy be with you, Mario. I follow your blogs from the U.K…I am a dual citizen who will vote for the POTUS from here. You are so correct and fearless. May the Lord sustain you with His strength and courage as you help lead the battle in the Lord’s Name, Jesus the Christ. Amen!

    • Carolina

      AMEN!!!!!!…Mario! Your gift with description is priceless!?
      LOL?
      Wake up Preachers times a wastin!

      • Carolina

        Mario & MMM & Bloggers,
        I watched early this morning the video on Youtube of you, Mario, & Lance Wallnau together in a live stream video from 5 days ago. POWER-PACKED is what your communication with Lance was. Oh there needs to be much more of that, because you 2 are “unfettered” and “unleashed” by the confines of religiosity and spiritual gnosticism. I remembered how I prayed for you 2 to become united “as one” back in 2018. My prayer of Faith was honored. PTL.
        Word of notice is…YouTube (and possibly Lance himself) have changed the video posting from Youtube to Lance’s Facebook page due to some connection interference when you both were recording with each other. For people like me that’s a bummer, because I DON’T do Facebook or Twitter stuff. YouTube no longer has the video directly found on it, but thank God I got to see it before it was changed early this morning.
        For all of you who do have Facebook accounts…GO TO Lance Wallnau at Facebook and watch Mario and Lance ‘chatting in the anointing’, what an anointed TREAT.?
        Lance is right Mario, Washington DC needs your tent, smack dab in the middle of town.

      • Francisco

        I saw the video, Carolina. Wonderful when a flow of fellowship is created between two brothers, as it blesses us.

      • Sharon Weldon

        I voted for Trump to be our President also because we had no other choice !! and I will always remember and I tell people how hillary looked like she was winning and how God turned the election that nite for us !!!! I VOTED FOR TRUMP I STAND WITH TRUMP AND WILL CONTINUE TO STAND FOR TRUMP EVEN THOUGH MY 37 YEAR OLD SON. THE ONLY REMAINING CHILD WE STILL HAVE HERE WITH US CONTINUES TO GET ME TO DUMP TRUMP IN OTHER WORDS !! I REFUSE TO BACK DOWN TO HIS AND OTHERS WAY OF THINKING HE EVEN TOLD ME HE WOULD START GOING TO CHURCH IF I WOULD STOP BACKING TRUMP AND I SAID THST IS JUST EVIL
        AND YOU KNOW ME BETTER THAN THAT !!! I FO NOT SEIM DOWNSTREAM WHEN AND Just BECAUSE OTHERS ARE DOING OR SAYING IT I MAKE MY OWN DECISIONS !! Amen Mario !!! so VERY well said and thank you sir !! we love you !!

        • Carolina

          Understood Sharon Weldon?…I’ve known Donald J Trump since 1989, and people do not know what a giving person he really is! I do! Then Mr Trump, helped my Brother and I in our family business from clear across the nation, Mr Trump (in NY) liked our business theme and idea in the West, he didn’t know us personally, but had met our Mother & her Husband when they were on a Cruse and from that time on Trump supported our company in varied ways.
          Now to my utter surprise my Brother and Mother who are both Democrats sling hateful verbiage and nasty Liberal rhetoric at President Trump, believing the garbage that CNN reports and that Ms Pelosi and her Squads are trying to do & say against him & our country.
          It breaks my heart ? to see my family have forgotten today in 2019, how philanthropic Donald Trump was even to our family all those years ago, and what a BOON he has been to the USA as our American President today. My belief is that the Democrats purposely appeal to the weakest and most vulnerable in our nation, such as my Mom & Bro, who are both home bound invalids now that I care give for. As well it seems your Son is younger and still inexperienced.
          So Sad, how “they” (Dems) operate.

    BRAVO, I AM STANDING WITH HIM, KEEP BRINGING THE VOICE OF REASON TO THE BODY. THANKS FOR YOUR OBEDIENCE TO ALMIGHTY GOD.

    I see him as a type of David, not Cyrus. Yes, Cyrus was a shepherd…so is Trump, and most definitely is David. Both David and Donald loved their countries and the people they shepherded. Both David and Donald relied upon Gods wisdom and worshipped Him. Both David and Donald are warriors. No matter whom one thinks he is a type of, he is here to give the Church both vision and courage…. as well as opportunity, which we would not have had if Hilary won the election. He’s not here to drain the swamp, but he is here to reveal the swamp. We probably don’t win the fight for America, but that doesn’t mean we don’t fight. Winning this fight doesn’t necessarily mean America returns to righteousness, winning to the saints at Smyrna meant dying in faith….but we resist the evil and we hold the door open for deliverance for a final gleaning of American souls. It’s a great opportunity for the Church, if we will only take it. Blessings brother Mario, appreciate Gods call on your life for today.

      I have been reading the Psalms of David for a couple months now. I see so many of King David’s predicaments which are now facing President Trump that it is mind-boggling. Many verses from the Psalms can be directly used and prayed towards our President. I personally pray Psalm 64:2 over our President.

      • Darlene

        Your comment is spot on. I have written so many notes in the margins comparing the climate in David’s time to modern day politics.

      • Darlene

        I meant in the margins of my Bible…

  7. Carol matre

    I’m standing in prayer for the president. You know.. if he were my enemy… as a Christian I am commanded to pray for him… to bless him not curse him. The president is not my savior or God… he’s a vessel who needs our prayers

    • mackeysback

      Yes Amen! It seems to me that as this blog is trumpeting we see many enemies on whats believed to be the other side. If so, then those enemies ought to be receiving many many prayers and Blessings to our God instead of all those curses I hear in our Lords Name???

  8. Dwana Myers

    Thank you, sir! My heart was beginning to faint…you have encouraged me to keep standing!

    I know God’s hand is on his life! I have gone through much hatred, even from family. The hatred I have endured is nothing to what Trump and his family have endured! God has placed his man and not one hair on his head can be touched!
    Love your post❤️ Nancy Montoya

  10. Mark Stripling

    Still praying all who dig a pit for our president will fall into it themselves. Psalm 7:15.

  11. Jared Quandt

    Who are all the evangelicals that are bailing on President Trump? It would be good to have names and not just an open ended vague statement. We pray for President Trump, Vice President Pence and different members of his cabinet. It is stupid to think that the devil won’t stir the stew so to speak and try to defeat President Trump and what he stands for. He is a man that has put himself out there for what he believes. That is more than I can say for the five fold ministry of the monetized gospel. I do understand they need to keep their options open and it is time for the body of Christ to wake up. We are on our own for the most part and the five fold is a no show. Press in and find the will of God and stay with that.

    • Surfcourier

      That’s why an awakening is coming, Jared. We are headed that way very fast now!

    • Frank

      God definitely send Trump due to much prayer for America. STAND WITH TRUMP AS THAT IS THE WILL OF OUR CREATOR.

    Excellent blog, Pastor Mario. I for one, can see what God is doing through President Trump and I have no intention of abandoning him. The lies and hypocrisy of the left are at nauseating levels. The democrat candidates, the media, and the rest of them, are destroying their own credibility, if they have any left, and they are destroying the greatest nation on earth. I pray that they fall into their own snare, and soon.

  14. Audrey Wright

    Thank you, powerful and to the point. I stand with our President and pray for him and all who work with him.
    If we believe Our God put him in office, we better stand with him.

    Yes, he is still the choice!

    I’d like to encourage my Christian brothers and sisters to send a postcard of support, telling him that you support him and pray for him every day. He needs to hear from us. Here is the address:

  22. Sherry Felts

    I fully believe that is was the will of God and so many praying that put our wonderful President in office! He needs us now more than ever! Please continue to pray that he has the full armor of God on and per the blood Of Jesus all over him and his family! Amen!

  23. Tim

    Yes and Amen!

  24. Ken Meadows

    This is exactly why people of faith will prevail

    We will stand by the conviction that all Americans deserve freedom and liberty

    Our borders will be strong again

    Illegals will have to leave and come back through proper procedures
    – [ ]
    No more hate
    No color
    No race

    Divisiveness has had its day, now time to stand as one Nation

    I see only greatness and hope (earnest expectation) of wealth at every level… inner cities need to vet out corrupt as well as draining the political swamp

    Our veterans deserve to be treated and cared for in a timely manner

    I love all Americans and expect an end to trafficking and human slavery

    Each and every soul has value!….differences of opinion should never allow anyone to attack their neighbor

    That should be considered un- American

  25. northlandoutposts

    AMEN AND AMEN!!!!!

  26. Lynn Scott

    Mario… Thank you for taking your place at the back gate! This is truly your assignment for such a time as we live. Standing at the gate recruiting a courageous army… Telling all those who are fleeing to turn back and go STAND, the answers lie before us not behind us. Fear will flee, courage rises. And as with President Trump, when he speaks and cast the visions for a united America, he releases the spirit of courage. Once we see God is for us, we believe we can be victorious! Keep standing!

    Romans 12:14 Trumpets LOUDLY!! to….

    Bless them which persecute you: bless, and curse not.
    Bless them which persecute you,…. It is the lot of God’s, people in this world to be persecuted by the men of it, in some shape or another, either by words or deeds; either by reviling and reproaching them, and speaking all manner of evil of them; or by hindering them the free exercise of religious worship, by confiscation of their goods, imprisonment of their persons, by violently torturing their bodies, and taking away their lives; under all which circumstances they are taught to
    bless them; that is, to pray for them, that God would show them their evil, give repentance to them, and the remission of their sins; which is the order Christ gave to his disciples, Matthew 5:44; and encouraged to an observance of, by his own example, Luke 23:34; and has been followed herein by his disciples and apostles, Acts 7:60 1 Corinthians 4:12. Moreover, by “blessing” may be meant, giving them good words, mild and soft answers, “not rendering evil for evil, railing for railing”, 1 Peter 3:9; but, on the contrary, blessing, in imitation of Christ, who, “when he was reviled, reviled not again”, 1 Peter 2:23, “bless”,
    and curse not: to have a mouth full of cursing and bitterness, Romans 3:14, is the character of an unregenerate man, and what by no means suits one who names the name of Christ; for blessing and cursing to proceed out of the same mouth, is as absurd and unnatural, as if it should be supposed that a fountain should send forth sweet water and bitter, or salt and fresh, James 3:10. The imprecations upon wicked men, used by David and other good men, are no contradictions to this rule; since they were made under the inspiration of the Spirit of God, and were predictions of God’s vengeance, which in righteous judgment should fall on them, and are not to be drawn into an example by us. THIS IS THE LIVING WORD OF THE Lord…… Do it and we shall Live oppose it and we shall perish having reaped what we sowed into Amen

  28. mackeysback

    Keep in close mind as in the Mind of Christ Jesus that MANY of these enemies are the very people that call themselves Christians that bring shame to the Cross of Christ to which we proclaim Him Crucified so our so-called wisdom doesn’t proceed from our learned mind of fleshly wisdom born even in the letter of the scripture but only in the Living Word Himself which is Christ “IN” us and our as well as our enemies only true Living present Hope of Gods eternal Glory Amen? Many are our own Children and natural family members as I can tell you personally they DON;T KNOW WHAT THEY ARE DOING!! Just as the so-called many membered Church is doing likewise fighting the wrath of God with the same fire so that they/we all will bite and devour one another and sadly In His Name Amen

  29. C Duggan Harrison Harrison

    I totally concur brother!

  30. Alan Mittan

    He’s not alone, my wife and I with many others are praying for this man called Trump. The Lord is with him.

  31. Gloria

    Amen, Amen?”, and Amen ??
    We need strong preachers that speak up for Trump but at least mine won’t ever mention politics from his pulpit? Why? I guess he and they feel they might offend those in the political opposition but he needs to remind people that we pray for all presidents in office!!! I pray for Mr. Trump everyday and I know others do to and do as long as the masses have their voices and lifts Mr. Trump in prayer God will hear our plea for him. Thank you Mr Murillo for taking this stand for our President and I also pray for you for a hedge of protection because of what you do. God Bless???

  32. Greg Dean

    We are seeing Satan doing everything he can do to destabilize our nation. We have had three mass shootings within seven days. Satan is using lost young men, often who are seeking meaning, to do extremist acts.

    However the result is that it drives conservatives, especially evangelicals, deeper into prayer.

    2 Chronicles 7:14 (NIV)
    14 if my people, who are called by my name, will humble themselves and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, and I will forgive their sin and will heal their land.

  33. Marilyn Schnell

    I, and others around me, know that President Trump is God’s appointed leader, and we are praying for him and his family to remain bold, and for us to do the same. I, too, find the church (little ‘c’) becoming less and less relevant and influential in the war raging around us. But the true Church of the Lord Jesus Christ is arising with power and strength, boldness and truth as never before. We will grow in number as we discover that there are many, not just a few, who have and will pay the price to see righteousness prevail. Bless the Lord, for our God reigns, and though there may be casualties and battles lost, we will prevail, for God is with us. May we be prepared to wage war, loving not our lives, until that is done.

  34. MICHAEL DEWITT

    I Have not personally heard of any Evangelicals walking away or Abandoning our President, but if I did I would be inclined to remind them of these words so eloquently spoken by Jesus Himself:

    “When evening comes, you say, ‘It will be fair weather, for the sky is red,’ and in the morning, ‘Today it will be stormy, for the sky is red and overcast.’ You know how to interpret the appearance of the sky, but you cannot interpret the signs of the times.”

    The Resolve we find in staying engaged in this battle is in Understanding the war that is being waged. That the war in Heaven is manifesting itself in the Natural. As Satan battles for the Throne in Heaven so to do men that serve him battle for the Throne of this World. It is a Timeless battle that has been Waging since the Dawn of Time and Satan’s Goal on Earth is to Rise to Power and Reign over us Completely by Centralizing Government so to eliminate any opposition to Him.

    If you have not been called to this battle then i have to wonder if you were ever even called by God in the first place? Did you think this would be a good career choice? Did you decide it was a good idea to help people and make a living in the process? Who Saves? Who Redeems? Who has Ultimate Power and Authority? Who Decides when to act? Who chooses the instruments and weapons of war? Who is Sovereign?

    Not you..

    Those that understand the Nature of this battle will never abandon it, because they have been Called to Battle by the Ultimate Authority. They have Discerned the Signs of the Times, They Fully Understand what’s at stake, They Understand the Scope of this Battle and the wiles of the evil one. Battle lines have been drawn and the Lord has put his pieces in place and this President, Flaws and all is the biggest Piece on the Board with a Mission to stop Satan’s Rise to Power and the Centralized Government he requires to do so.

    Have you spent so much time pleasing your constituents that you are unable to see the Devices of evil that surrounds you? Perhaps you Should spend equal time Listening to your constituents as you do preparing for Sundays.. And here is Why.

    Malachi 3:16-18
    Then they that feared the Lord spake often one to another: and the Lord hearkened, and heard it, and a book of remembrance was written before him for them that feared the Lord, and that thought upon his name.

    And they shall be mine, saith the Lord of hosts, in that day when I make up my jewels; and I will spare them, as a man spareth his own son that serveth him.

    Then shall ye return, and discern between the righteous and the wicked, between him that serveth God and him that serveth him not.

    God Bless.

    We as Christians should be more aware of the  spirit called “Liviathon spirit” or a dividing spirit” the left is operating from.  It is the same spirit that causes division among the abortionist versus those against abortion.  People we need to pray and  brake off this spirit from our Nation.  Our Nation remains free now because of those who prayed to get Trump in office; which was God’s will, but we had to pray.  If you don’t stand with Trump now and develop hate for his position, it will only destroy our Nation and yourselves.  That is what this bad spirit does; it is of the evil one.  Pray without ceasing.

    Thank you pastor Murillo on your excellent article and even more for your commitment to Christ. I am reminded of John 1:23 where the prophet Isaiah said, “I am the voice of one calling in the wilderness.” Unfortunately the wilderness in our country is comprised of what used to be our moral fabric in this country namely the churches. It is an extremely sad commentary when a pastor in Virginia allows the president to speak in his church, and within a very short amount of time, he receives death threats and has to increase his security. A number of Christian authors have suggested that the main thrust of these churches, of too many churches, is simply to fill the pews on Sunday. My wife and I stand with you and all else who or trying to support a president who believes in our Father and His Son and the Holy Spirit. Please continue your efforts and we will pray for you often.

  38. Rick Strul

    We need to stand in the gap and fight the communists. They are trying to take control of the people and destroy our Constitution and Liberty. No more time to wait; no more time to waste! We need to throw out of office any and all politicians that believe they are aristocrats and rulers! We need to start with the most immediately dangerous – the so-called democrat party. They have been showing their true colors. They lie to the voters and steal from the people! ALL so-called ‘progressives’ are Marxists (read the abundant research that proves the matter! They are against the Lord and want to destroy the country so that they can steal its wealth and enslave the people! They have been working for more than 100 years to capture the educational system and the government bureaucracy. They very nearly have it all now! We need to stand and fight or our privileged position for helping others will be gone. I don’t want to hear about the rapture! We need to stand and fight NOW!

    • Bobbie

      Rick: “I don’t want to hear about the Rapture”-“the world is predicated on lies” that’s an over 150 year lie teaching taught in the church for those who are waiting for the rapture bus lie. James Lloyd wrote a great booklet on. YES, we all need to pray without ceasing! “As the church goes, so goes the world”, IF the world is corrupt it’s because the Church is and the Church is NOT buildings as we have been dumbdowned and brainwashed to think very sorry to say!
      Google: rapture cult lie teaching.

    Thank you President for the difference you are making in this country. You are anointed and appointed by GOD Almighty. His hand is on you ! We pray for you daily ! Nothing will stop you with GOD by your side. You care about people and have a genuine love for this country. Thank you for making America a Christian country once again. We love you Mr. President and GOD bless you.

    Bless you Mario for trumpeting the TRUTH! As I’m writing this the President and First Lady are at the hospital in Dayton visiting survivors of the shooting. There are leaders shunning him, and protesters. And just now Beto O’Rourke in El Paso spoke against the President and said they needed to stand against him, and stand for the truth (lower case). So – as I’m praying over him and for him right now, I’m asking for God’s TRUTH to prevail. That His Glory would rise over this darkness. And that the Lord would use this visit to bless and comfort the survivors and all the first responders in Dayton and El Paso.

  41. Ken Burgess

    My dear brother, you have “hit the nail on the head” as we say in the south. There are a couple of points that I would like to make though regarding “church leaders.” The reason many of these are bailing is the fulfillment of Jesus prophetic declaration in John 12:7-15 7″Then said Jesus unto them again, Verily, verily, I say unto you, I am the door of the sheep.
    8 All that ever came before me are thieves and robbers: but the sheep did not hear them.
    9 I am the door: by me if any man enter in, he shall be saved, and shall go in and out, and find pasture.
    10 The thief cometh not, but for to steal, and to kill, and to destroy: I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly.
    11 I am the good shepherd: the good shepherd giveth his life for the sheep.
    12 But he that is an hireling, and not the shepherd, whose own the sheep are not, seeth the wolf
    coming, and leaveth the sheep, and fleeth: and the wolf catcheth them, and scattereth the sheep.
    13 The hireling fleeth, because he is an hireling, and careth not for the sheep.
    14 I am the good shepherd, and know my sheep, and am known of mine.
    15 As the Father knoweth me, even so know I the Father: and I lay down my life for the sheep.” The other point is that the modern day organized institution called church has always been and will always be ineffective in the war against evil due to it’s very nature and calling. Again, it is man’s idea of what he thinks God’s Kingdom ought to be. Instead of Jesus being the head, KING of KINGS and LORD of LORDS, we have a system that has attempted to mix the “precious with the vile.” No longer will the LORD of GLORY tolerate this vile mixture. He is in the process of, “separating the precious from the vile.” In 1 Peter 2: 4-10 we read the following, “To whom coming, as unto a living stone, disallowed indeed of men, but chosen of God, and precious,
    5 Ye also, as lively stones, are built up a spiritual house, an holy priesthood, to offer up spiritual sacrifices, acceptable to God by Jesus Christ.
    6 Wherefore also it is contained in the scripture, Behold, I lay in Sion a chief corner stone, elect, precious: and he that believeth on him shall not be confounded.
    7 Unto you therefore which believe he is precious: but unto them which be disobedient, the stone which the builders disallowed, the same is made the head of the corner,
    8 And a stone of stumbling, and a rock of offence, even to them which stumble at the word, being disobedient: whereunto also they were appointed.
    9 But ye are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, an holy nation, a peculiar people; that ye should shew forth the praises of him who hath called you out of darkness into his marvellous light;
    10 Which in time past were not a people, but are now the people of God: which had not obtained mercy, but now have obtained mercy.”
    My dear brother I am now 74 years old and I refuse to buy into the lies and nonsense that men have used to rule the minds of God’s people for millennia and they call it church. NONSENSE!
