LIVE UPDATES: President Biden sworn in, calls for unity in inaugural address

For those who love the USA, especially its Christian values and heritage, this is a DARK DAY. Joe Biden will undo the good that Trump has done, and make the US more unsafe and make it a more unChristian country! Those who are rejoicing now, are they that cannot seriously be followers of the Truth of The Holy Bible, as this man will do much damage by moving the country to UnBiblical standards. He has already appointed a transgender person to his team!

May the Lord God truly have mercy on you who love the Lord, and your great country!

Presidents don’t make a country “Christian” or non-Christian. In fact, God is working through the church to expand His kingdom, not the kingdoms of the world.

Those who are rejoicing now, are they that cannot seriously be followers of the Truth of The Holy Bible...
Sure we can. You just don’t understand it.

...as this man will do much damage by moving the country to UnBiblical standards.
Every modern President has done that. The Trump Administration was especially bad in its casual disregard for life.

He has already appointed a transgender person to his team!
Is that person unqualified for the job? Is that person’s character suspect?

Remember, we were constituted as a secular government under the Constitution.

May the Lord God truly have mercy on you who love the Lord, and your great country!
Amen.

Amen.

are you pleased that Trump, has been replaced by Biden? I am no fan of Trump, but have no doubt that God did use Him for His purposes. Apart from his excellent record on the EVIL of abortion, which Biden will reverse, Trump's "wall" was no doubt a good thing, which should have been constructed much quicker. Like here in the UK, if people want to come to live, then there are legal ways to do this, as in the law of the land. It is very wrong for thousands to simply march across the border, and then expect to be welcomed! Especially with this deadly virus, these people cannot be checked!

People like you are the reason our nation has gone to Hell.

But they can sure make a country Sodom.

Kinda hallows your politics, don't it?

Don't think that God observes such dichotomies. The commandment is to teach the nations to obey Christ's commands.

Very pleased. We need someone who actually cares that 4,000/day are dying of COVID-19 and will take steps to stop the carnage. In the past three weeks, I have known three people on ventilators, two have died already and the third is almost certainly not going to live. Moreover, I know several people who survived COVID-19, but have severe damage to their bodies, especially the lungs, and may end up permanently disabled.

I am no fan of Trump, but have no doubt that God did use Him for His purposes.
God uses Satan for His purposes, so that’s not much of a comfort. I think Trump was God’s judgment on the American “conservative” church. It has been completely discredited in the public eye.

Apart from his excellent record on the EVIL of abortion, which Biden will reverse, Trump's "wall" was no doubt a good thing, which should have been constructed much quicker.
The wall, what has been built, is ineffective. It was always unfeasible for anyone who is familiar with the geography of the Rio Grande Valley of Texas. It also damaged a lot of land and was built without appropriate studies to determine geological stability and the long term effects on wildlife. The wall can also be easily avoided.

Like here in the UK, if people want to come to live, then there are legal ways to do this, as in the law of the land.
We don’t have a good immigration system and need to update it to manage the realities of the modern world.

It is very wrong for thousands to simply march across the border, and then expect to be welcomed!
They come as refugees requesting asylum. According to US law, they are allowed to do exactly what they are doing. The Trump Administration did not like the law, so they made things as miserable as possible for the refugees, with child separation becoming the standard.

Especially with this deadly virus, these people cannot be checked!
The Trump Administration has done a very poor job of responding to the pandemic, so we haven’t had enough testing, nor mask compliance since ex-President Trump made it a political issue.

Yes, we have been like Sodom for a long time, and Trump was making it worse.

Look, this was the iniquity of your sister Sodom: She and her daughter had pride, fullness of food, and abundance of idleness; neither did she strengthen the hand of the poor and needy.
— Ezekiel 16:49

Ex-President Trump was pushing pride/arrogance and ignoring the needs of the poor and needy.

Kinda hallows your politics, don't it?
Actually, it pulls me out of partisan politics. I am responsible to speak prophetically in the world, including against political parties and systems that undermine human flourishing.

Don't think that God observes such dichotomies.
Sure he does. Jesus plainly taught, “Render to Caesar what is Caesar’s, and to God what is God’s” (Mark 12:17).

The commandment is to teach the nations to obey Christ's commands.
The Greek word translated “nations” in Matthew 28:19 is “ethnos,” which is referring to ethnic groupings. We derive the English words “ethnic” and “ethnicities” from it. Jesus is not specifically talking about nation states.

Careful, you know who the Father of Lies is.
I do. Ex-President Trump emulated him with his consistent litany of dishonest statements.

Regarding his record on preservation of life, here are a few examples:
— He rejected our obligations to accept refugees
— He deceived the nation regarding the danger of COVID-19, and more than 400,000 in the US have died
— He takes great pleasure in name-calling and denigration of others

your answers show that you are basically anti Trump, and seem to think that Biden will make America a better place? I very much doubt this

You don’t seem to be in control of your emotions. Stop lashing out at everyone and work on why you have such a deep seated need to harm others.
My emotions are in check. I just don't like Communists or their useful idiots. That means I don't like you. No emotion to it. I don't like strawberry ice cream and I don't like you. Zero emotion there.

1. It is for those who loved the USA that it was for the past 4 years. I didn't.
2. America lacked Christian values which is how it was able to elect Trump at all.

Those who are rejoicing now, are they that cannot seriously be followers of the Truth of The Holy Bible
In the words of @Scarlett O., it sounds like you're referring to Biden supporters as non-Christians. TREAD LIGHTLY!!

The USA officially fell to the Communists today at noon.
And officially fell out of the hands of racists at noon. :Biggrin

That means I don't like you.
Typical Republican Christianity. It's this hypocrisy that led to the death of Trump and MAGA. Keep it up...and make sure to pay your taxes this new great America. :Biggrin

Blah blah blah, it's how countries are formed. There is no government not made of people who are commanded to obey Christ.

And Trump made it easy for people to live according to their conscience.

Your politics are a direct reflection of your faith.

Why is it you always pop up to speak well of the Left, and to cajole those here to submit because it's the 'Christian' thing, but exaggerate the sins of the conservatives and justify resistance to conservative government? I'll tell you why. The Left offers you something that you love. And if you aren't an operative, then it's really an effort to hallow something in your life that, in truth, is profane.

To those who wish to live peacefully according to their conscience, to enjoy the fruits of their honest labor, the Left offers nothing. The Left can only appeal to thieves and murderers and gluttons, those who lust for things that they are unwilling to work for. Slavery appealed to the Children of Israel, because, despite their groaning under the oppression, their bellies were full. Judas was indignant at Mary's worship, pretending to care for the poor because he was thief.

That's what your posts are. Always an indictment of those for truth, and praise for tyrants.

There's a reason for it, though. And it isn't a care for the poor or any regard for the commandments of Christ and His church. It's something that you love more than that. Money certainly is a part, because there is no evil that is not somehow tied to the love of money. (I mean the Biden crime family is the exemplar in that regard.) I mean, you look wooly, but that's not the bleating of sheep that I'm hearing.
