However, to clear any misunderstandings, I will have to briefly address this by saying that I had never intended to give a political opinion when I had made this post. If others feel that my post had been giving the wrong impression, I apologize.

 

One of my faults is, is that have a tendency to be very blunt and simply tell it like it is, sometimes to a fault. But in making that post, I was simply trying to describe what was going on in my area, nothing more, and nothing less.

 

I suspect that you are not a "grouchy old person", but I think the rest still applies.

It's going to be funny to watch Jehovah force Trump to give power to the UN :D 

That was my thought this morning 🤣

Trump was the one who has transferred American embassy from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem 

Are we going to see more unpredictable moves on his part?

Well ... Politicians of this world are well known for being stable, caring and truthful ... so maybe not.

He might become the next Secretary General!! Ouch!! :facepalmpo2:

He can't. None of the 5 permanent members of the Security Council can be Secretary General. 

 

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Secretary-General_of_the_United_Nations

The secretary-general is appointed by the General Assembly upon the recommendation of the Security Council. As the recommendation must come from the Security Council, any of the five permanent members of the council can veto a nomination. Most secretaries-general are compromise candidates from middle powers and have little prior fame.

 

Phillipians 4:8 Finally, brothers, whatever things are true, whatever things are of serious concern, whatever things are righteous, whatever things are chaste, whatever things are lovable, whatever things are well-spoken-of, whatever things are virtuous, and whatever things are praiseworthy, continue considering these things.

Who to say he will be president at that time?

Exactly! He might slip in the shower tomorrow.  (I certainly don't hope that for anyone btw)

There is talk that he (Mr T) will either try to have NATO restructured or will try to leave it, it will be interesting to see where that goes 

I was saying this to a sister just now

Nato will have to pay to keep USA support

otherwise Europe may have to deal Putin alone 

most European countries are making military service mandatory

Just adding this comment here from the US Election Outcome thread:

It's nice to have another puzzle piece in place for future speculations [who the president is], and I'm glad that I haven't seen any unrest so far.

 

The world is still divided between North and South, BRICSIA vs SWIFT. I don't think that would change with Trump, but he has been anti-war so far and has said he would negotiate peace for Ukraine and Gaza. It's possible that that could be "achieved" with the UN and lead to the cry of P&S. Since Russia/China and USA/Britain still have a lot of sway, they could encourage other nations to join or risk being left out of trade agreements.

 

That leads me to the next point. He's also a heavy promoter of crypto-currency, which sounds like a great mark of the beast (no one can buy or sell without the mark), and a great "neutral" currency that could be used by the UN, thus making the "mark" a worldwide phenomenon. Imagine if a nation wasn't allowed to conduct trade unless they used the mark, crypto-currency. 

 

It's possible for so many things to come to pass as part of a wider negotiation for peace and we probably wouldn't know about it until we see the nations give their power to the UN. Exciting times!

 

Lastly, I think this every election, but maybe this is the last President of the USA!

That was the time marked by the minting of the Temple Mount Coin with Trump and Cyrus on it. What does that tell you about his mindset. He's the next Cyrus????

Possibly Cain did too, we know how that turned out...:whistling:

Rules, rules, rules. "You're Fired" will be his next new motto.

Sorry, difficult to stay completely neutral.

Yes,with Gen 3:15 and his Mother thinking he was the one could have played into his ego. Nice point turtle.

I could start some fun speculation about Trump being the anti-typical fulfillment of what happened to Cain. :lol1:

Being completely neutral but my wife and I are HA era kids. And that TV game show alone stained even the like 2-5 seconds of his presence in HA before he was even what is now is again. Soooo... yeah. Don't ruin a childhood movie. He's fired! Just kidding! KIDDING!

Sisters wearing pants is a huge marker for me.

 

Was sisters wearing pants at the meeting ever forbidden though?

 

Sisters wore skirts by convention, but I don't think that it was ever forbidden for women in attendance to wear them, no?

 

I mean, if a sister wore pants before the update, surely nobody would have kicked her out. So I don't see what exactly was the change

 

Unless I'm missing something
