Personal From... The Trump and Harris debate, and the Christian Vote


by Leonard V. Johnson


On the evening of September 10th, I found myself staying up late watching the first (and possibly only) Presidential Debate between President Donald Trump and Vice President of the Harris/Biden Administration Kamala Harris, (and David Muir and Linsey David)! THREE ON ONE! I was watching and listening── and as I had been watching thirty-five years earlier with the fall of the Berlin Wall── with tears streaming down my face, understanding that this is a prophetically significant event that is occurring in world history!

I witnessed the moderators fact-checking President Donald Trump every chance they could── and not fact-checking Kamala Harris but maybe once. I, personally, did not hear the POTUS lie. Yet, I heard Kamala Harris lie dozens of times. The largest one being for sure – “And as of today, there is not one member of the United States military who is in active duty in a combat zone, in any war zone around the world, the first time this century.” That, of course, was AN OUTRIGHT BLANTANT LIE! Fox News host Harris Faulkner said Friday that Vice President Kamala Harris’ lies during Tuesday’s debate with former President Donald Trump were so obvious she could fact-check the Democratic nominee for president with her memory.

What truly made me ill was that after the “attack,” on CNN they were excited to have heard Kamala Harris’ strident pro-abortion positions as a reason to vote for her! Truly, the very idea of voting for a candidate because the candidate is in favor of MURDERING INNOCENT BABIES is a disturbing news report── and those so-called reporters on CNN should be ashamed of themselves!

As I stated recently – it is possible that the LORD our God saved the life of President Donald Trump, because the United States of America will come to need a strong war-time president! Because war is coming to the United States of America, according to God’s living word. Notice this dual biblical prophecy –
“’ Woe to Assyria, the rod of My anger And the staff in whose hand is My indignation. 6) I will send him against an ungodly nation, And against the people of My wrath I will give him charge, To seize the spoil, to take the prey, And to tread them down like the mire of the streets.’”
Here, the LORD God was WARNING Israel through the prophet Isaiah, telling them that because of their rebellion, He was going to bring Assyria – who was going to be like a staff within His hand and punish them. But out of that – later on in that same chapter –
Verse 12 – “’ Therefore it shall come to pass, when the Lord has performed all His work on Mount Zion and on Jerusalem, that He will say, ‘I will punish the fruit of the arrogant heart of the king of Assyria, and the glory of his haughty looks.’” – Isaiah 10:5-6, 12.
The German-European plan is for a united Europe to be a strong military power independent of NATO- which is led by the United States of America. A political, military, and religious force that is prophesied to ultimately defeat the USA – cf. Daniel 11:39.


Indeed, according to biblical prophecy, there is coming a time when the US debt will be invoked as a reason to conquer the US per Habakkuk 2:6-8.

Sadly, the USA has a BIASED NEWS MEDIA! The only world news media outlets that I personally watch on television are Fox News, Newsmax, and Sky News Australia. The overall majority of world news media outlets in the US are hypocrites – and are nothing more than political advocates for Communism in America!

God’s living word says that the LORD God is going to send ‘the rod of His anger’ against a “hypocritical nation” at the time of the end – Isaiah 10:5-11, KJV.

Also, the satanist Taylor Swift has officially endorsed Kamala Harris publicly. As Gomer Pyle would often say, “Surprise, Surprise, Surprise!” ──



Taylor Swift is entering her 2024 election era.

The mega pop star has thrown her support behind Vice President Harris, just under two months out from the election … in a post to her more than 280 million followers on Instagram.


After last night’s Presidential debate, the pop star publicly endorsed Kamala Harris because “she is a steady-handed, gifted leader” who fights for “LGBTQ+ rights, IVF, and a woman’s right to her own body. . .”

I really try to keep an open mind and understand other people’s opinions. But I personally have an extremely difficult time comprehending how someone thinks abortion and LGBTQ rights are the most important problems facing the country right now.

The promotion of SIN is not a reason to endorse anyone! The very approving of the LGBTQ+ lifestyle or agenda is CONDEMNED in God’s living immutable word –
“who exchanged the TRUTH OF GOD for the lie, and worshiped and served the creature rather than the Creator, … 26) For this reason God gave them up to vile passions. For even their women exchanged the natural use for what is AGAINST NATURE.

27) Likewise also the men, leaving the NATURAL USE of the woman, burned in their lust for one another, men with men COMMITTING WHAT IS SHAMEFUL, and receiving in themselves the penalty of their error which was due. 28) And even as they did not like to retain God in their knowledge, God gave them over to a [reprobate] mind, to do those things WHICH ARE NOT PROPER;

29) being filled with all unrighteousness, sexual immorality, wickedness, covetousness, maliciousness; full of envy, murder, strife, deceit, evil-mindedness; they are whisperers, 30) backbiters, haters of God, violent, PROUD, boasters, inventors of evil things, disobedient to parents, 31) undiscerning, untrustworthy, unloving, unforgiving, unmerciful;

32) WHO, KNOWING THE RIGHTEOUS JUDGMENT OF GOD, that those who practice such things are deserving of death, not only do the same but also approve of those who practice them.” – Romans 1:25, 26-32.
Truly, truly the 2024 US Presidential Election is a choice between MAKING AMERICA GREAT AGAIN or four more years of unending evil! Yet, we say – do not place your hope in any human political leader ── “Commit your way to the LORD, Trust also in Him, And He shall bring it to pass.” – Psalm 37:5.

What are the godly traits of a leader? The prophet Moses, receiving valuable advice from his father-in-law concerning leadership – under the divine inspiration of the LORD God wrote ──
“’ Moreover you shall select from all the people able men, such as fear God, men of truth, hating covetousness; and place such over them to be rulers of thousands, rulers of hundreds, rulers of fifties, and rulers of tens.” – Exodus 18:21.
Of course, neither President Donald Trump nor Kamala Harris could be considered ‘men who fear God, men of truth, and one who hates covetousness.’ But, on the issues that matter this 2024 ── Illegal Immigration, the Economy, and Violent Crime. Of these issues (and much more) which candidate do you feel more confident in about making effective decisions in handling uncontrolled illegal immigration, law enforcement, and criminal justice issues, making good decisions concerning foreign policy, the economy, or even fracking or no-fracking!?

Questions: Was illegal immigration better under control under President Donald Trump? What about the economy? What about violent crime? How’s your economy under the Harris/Biden Administration!? I think── the obvious speaks for itself.

Remember── neither voting for President Donald Trump nor Kamala Harris will ultimately save the inevitable fall of the United States of America! However, let us also be reminded── “ … For there is no authority except from God, and the authorities that exist ARE APPOINTED BY GOD.” – Romans 13:1b.

We, as true Christians, are not of this world – but we are in this world (John 17:15). One can have a witty comeback and say, “The “lesser of two evils” is still evil,” but we need to listen to our Lord Jesus when He has said, “ … ‘but that You should keep them from the evil one.’ Let us continue to pray for God’s divine protection for President Donald Trump and that God the Father and our Lord Jesus Christ would── at the least for four more years── keep us from the increasing evil of the evil one! Yet, in the end, God’s will be done!

God’s living word says –
“’ As for My people, children are their oppressors, And WOMEN RULE OVER THEM. O My people! Those who lead you cause you to err, And DESTROY the way of your paths.’” – Isaiah 3:12.
Let us always put our faith in our Lord Jesus Christ! Because it is He── ultimately── that allows our leaders to be appointed to office!

And of course, we are to pray always for His kingdom to come and for God’s will to be done! – Matthew 6:10; Mark 13:35-37; Luke 21:34-36.

Our brethren in a great many nations, countries, and provinces around the world the people are being oppressed, persecuted, and even silenced. They are suffering under a government that they are powerless to help change. A government that hates our faith and our great and merciful LORD God! Our beloved brethren preach and teach the same gospel Message we preach and teach here in the United States of America. Here in America, we have been truly blessed by the LORD God to speak up about and to choose our leaders without fear of persecution or retaliation. Of course, as we continue to proclaim – that great blessing has been taken away because our nations continued falling away from God! e.g.“Thanksgiving To God EVERY Day!”

For a supposed “man of God” to tell you that you shouldn’t vote── it is no different to me than the Taliban in Afghanistan telling our women that they have no right to education, freedom of movement, or even health care! 1 You── so-called “man of God” will be held accountable!

I recently read an excellent article, To Vote or Not to Vote? by Peter Lillback. And I won’t quote much, except –
“ For those of us who are believers in the truths of Scripture, there are several timeless and necessary biblical principles that we should keep in mind in this challenging election season:”
The article went on to quote six passages from God’s living word.

“If it is possible, as much as depends on you, live PEACEABLY WITH ALL MEN.” – Romans 12:18.
“We should all be prepared to say, “Madam President” or “President Trump”. Regardless of how we feel about the candidates, we are called to honor the office even if we have difficulty honoring its occupant.”
“ … ‘Render therefore to Caesar the things that are Caesar’s, and to God the things that are God’s.’ – Matthew 22:21.
“When we refuse to honor the government’s process for leadership transition, we are not only withholding a duty to government, we are potentially disrespecting Christ who told us to honor the government He has placed over us by giving to it its due respect (Rom. 13:1-6).”
“Do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good.” – Romans 12:21.
“Staying home on election day may give you the right to say I didn’t make things worse, but you have no more claim to moral excellence than a rock on a roadside that didn’t give a flat tire to a car because the car didn’t hit it.”
‘You are the salt of the earth; … You are the light of the world. …’ – Matthew 5:13-16.
“When people who are the salt of the earth and the light of the world cooperate for a common good, they not only can dispel the darkness of moral evil, but they can prevent the decay of that which is good.”
“Do not be deceived: ‘Evil company corrupts good habits.” – 1 Corinthians 15:33.
“Do not be deceived”, the government will be keeping company with your family, your business, and your house of worship; but will it strengthen these bedrock institutions or will its “evil company corrupt” “good morals”?”
“ … be steadfast, immovable, always abounding in the work of the Lord, knowing that your labor is not in vain in the Lord.” – 1 Corinthians 15:58.
“We must not forget that staying home and not voting on Election Day is to remain silent. To remain silent in a moral crisis is to become complicit in the evil. A classic line from Shakespeare says, “’To be, or not to be?’, that is the question”. □
