Poll: US Presidential Race closer


Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton

COGwriter

The polling gap between Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump has narrowed:

May 21, 2016

Hillary Clinton’s advantage over Donald Trump has narrowed to just three points — resulting in a dead-heat general-election contest with more than five months to go until November, according to a new national NBC News/Wall Street Journal poll.

Clinton, who remains a heavy favorite to win the Democrat nomination, leads the presumptive GOP nominee 46 percent to 43 percent among registered voters, a difference that is within the poll’s margin of error of plus-or-minus 3.1 percentage points. In April, Clinton held an 11-point advantage over Trump, 50 percent to 39 percent, and had led him consistently by double digits since December. http://www.nbcnews.com/meet-the-press/clinton-s-lead-over-trump-shrinks-3-points-new-nbc-n577726

Perhaps it should be mentioned that a Fox News poll last week showed Donald Trump ahead by 3 percentage points. But now that NBC says it is close, many Hillary Clinton supporters are basically shocked.  The reality of a Donald Trump presidency is something few thought was really possible.

Both Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton have significant ‘unfavorable’ ratings–more so than the presumptive nominees of their parties in a long time (if ever).

Are either what the USA needs?

Many people recognize that something is terribly wrong with the direction of the USA. Yet, the answer is not Donald Trump nor Hillary Clinton. The answer is national repentance, which is something neither of those candidates has spoken about.

In my view, both Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump fulfill the following prophecy for the “last days”:

1 But know this, that in the last days perilous times will come: 2 For men will be lovers of themselves, lovers of money, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy, 3 unloving, unforgiving, slanderers, without self-control, brutal, despisers of good, 4 traitors, headstrong, haughty, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God, 5 having a form of godliness but denying its power. And from such people turn away! 6 For of this sort are those who creep into households and make captives of gullible women loaded down with sins, led away by various lusts, 7 always learning and never able to come to the knowledge of the truth. (2 Timothy 3:1-7)

Hillary Clinton proudly promotes sexual immorality that the Bible condemns–her speaking fees and the Clinton Foundation suggest at least a minimal love of money (and there is a government investigation related to this). She also despises those who hold to biblical marriage and the rights of the unborn. She promotes class warfare and other forms of covetousness. She claims Christianity, but certainly does not practice biblical Christianity.

Donald Trump is an admitted adulterer who said he has never repented before God, and he approves of various behaviours that the Bible condemns–he is also a proud, boasting, lover of money. He despises many. He promotes nationalistic covetousness. He claims Christianity, but certainly does not practice biblical Christianity.

And both Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump have various scandals in their background. Both are facing potential legal consequences this year for some of them. Yet, at this moment. both Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump are the two most popular candidates to become the next President of the United States. This does not bode well for the USA.

Consider the biblical criteria for godly leadership:

19 Listen now to my voice; I will give you counsel, and God will be with you: Stand before God for the people, so that you may bring the difficulties to God. 20 And you shall teach them the statutes and the laws, and show them the way in which they must walk and the work they must do. 21 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 18:19-21)

2 “The Spirit of the Lord spoke by me,
And His word was on my tongue.
3 The God of Israel said,
The Rock of Israel spoke to me:
‘He who rules over men must be just,
Ruling in the fear of God. (2 Samuel 23:2-3)

Neither Hillary Clinton nor Donald Trump meet those criteria, despite their public claims of Christianity.

The USA needs the Kingdom of God.
