From Gary... King of presidents (and kings)


The president of The United States has power, almost unspeakable power.  If he chose, he could launch missiles than would begin world war III. And in the case of our current president, what powers he does not have, he will usurp.  If you have been watching the news you will have to acknowledge that he has bypassed his constitutional authority on numerous occasions. Still, even this president has his limitations.  He can not directly declare himself a king; to do so would just invite impeachment. As time goes on, the American public may see through the schemes of the Democratic party and its leader Barak Hussein Obama (or whatever his real name is) and the pendulum will once again swing to the right (The Republican party).  As Christians, we must obey the laws legitimately enacted and pray for leadership.  At this point, I hope you can see the wisdom expressed in the jpeg above. And with that in mind, envision the true nature of Jesus...
Ephesians 1:18-23 NASB
(18)  I pray that the eyes of your heart may be enlightened, so that you will know what is the hope of His calling, what are the riches of the glory of His inheritance in the saints,
(19)  and what is the surpassing greatness of His power toward us who believe. These are in accordance with the working of the strength of His might
(20)  which He brought about in Christ, when He raised Him from the dead and seated Him at His right hand in the heavenly places,
(21)  far above all rule and authority and power and dominion, and every name that is named, not only in this age but also in the one to come.
(22)  And He put all things in subjection under His feet, and gave Him as head over all things to the church,
(23)  which is His body, the fullness of Him who fills all in all.
The United States of America became great because its constitution and its people who, as Christians, wanted freedom to worship as they chose.  Whether or not this country of ours still remains a "Christian nation" or not, is a matter of debate, but one this is for sure- "no matter who is president, Jesus is still king." Believe that; for it is true!!!!
