This will be the first time I’ve ever run a post two days in a row. I only do it because, to me, the historical parallel fairly screams to me, “Learn from this, America!”
Rome was nearly erased from history when the city was taken and burned by the Gauls. How did it happen? The Romans had forced Camillus, their most capable leader, into exile; ignored reports that the Gauls were coming after them in great strength; refused to suspend their own political bickering; and were found completely unready for the crisis.
The Romans were only rescued because they repented of their folly, put their trust in their religious beliefs–and called back Camillus. He took charge and totally defeated the Gauls. Restored to his place, he then succeeded in defeating a proposal to abandon the shattered city and live elsewhere.
Is it saying too much to say that God had reserved Camillus for this very purpose?
And is it too much to say that President Donald Trump is our Camillus?
We need to put him back in office.
And we need to repent and turn back to God.
Stop doing stupid, evil, self-destructive stuff!
