Trump nominates Amy Coney Barrett, but …

After the death of US Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg, Donald Trump said he wanted to nominate a woman to fill the vacancy her death cause, and he did. He nominated Amy Coney Barrett.

Last week, he actually said he would nominate a woman because he likes women more than men.

Notice biblical criteria for appointing judges:

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 18:21)

Of course, a woman is not a man, and being a person of truth does not seem to be a criteria for Donald Trump. Also, since he does not hate covetousness, he would not be expected to consider being covetous that a disqualifier.

Now, I am not saying that Amy Coney Barrett is less honest or more covetous than the woman she is replacing–only that the biblical criteria were not stated as the initial reason to nominate Ruth Bader Ginsburg’s replacement.

As a side note, both Amy Coney Barrett and Ruth Bader Ginsburg were married:

According to a report {in} The New York Times, a study from the Institute for Family Studies and the Wheatley Institution found that “the happiest of all American wives consider themselves religious conservatives.”

As The Blaze noted, the finding didn’t go down with liberals. 09/24/20 https://www.wnd.com/2020/09/liberals-implode-evidence-suggests-happiest-wives-religious-conservatives/

So, statistically, it is more likely that Amy Coney Barrett is happier than Ruth Bader Ginsburg was.

In general, Republicans and conservatives are pleased with the selection of Amy Coney Barrett. Voice of America had the following:

September 26, 2020

Barrett has drawn wide support from the conservative legal establishment in the United States.

She is a 48-year-old devout Catholic who is very popular among conservative evangelical Christians, arguably Trump’s most loyal supporters.

Barrett taught law at the University of Notre Dame, one of the most prominent U.S. Catholic universities, for 15 years before Trump named her in 2017 to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the 7th Circuit, which covers the states of Illinois, Indiana and Wisconsin.

Religious conservatives hope Barrett would vote to overturn the landmark 1973 decision legalizing abortion rights in the United States. While Barrett has in the past expressed criticism of the ruling, she also said during her 2017 confirmation hearing to the appeals court that she would view previous Supreme Court rulings as binding precedent.

Democrats opposed her confirmation in 2017, voicing concerns about the role she places on religion in her life. https://www.voanews.com/usa/trump-announce-his-supreme-court-pick

Amy Coney Barrett is considered to be anti-abortion. Plus in 2015, she signed a letter publicly stating that marriage is between a man and a woman, which enraged the LGBTQ crowd and its supporters.

In general, Democrats and liberals are strongly opposed to her nomination.

Yet, politically, they may be cautious as the BBC reports:

25 September 2020

The choice of Judge Barrett puts Democrats in a tricky position. They have to find a way of undermining support for the nominee without seeming to attack her Catholic faith or personal background – moves that could risk turning off some voters in November. They will seek to delay the proceedings as best they can, while keeping their focus on issues like healthcare and abortion, which could be at the centre of future legal battles with Justice Barrett on a conservative-dominated court. https://www.bbc.com/news/world-us-canada-54303942

Yes, politics is highly involved in this process. Part of the reason for the possible Democratic caution is the Joe Biden is also a Roman Catholic.

Whether or not this nomination is approved, any Supreme Court nominee is expected to increase protests and aspects of division in the USA. As Jesus stated:

25 … Every kingdom divided against itself is brought to desolation, and every city or house divided against itself will not stand. (Matthew 12:25)

As far as politics go, consider also that Donald Trump’s Democratic presidential opponent, Joe Biden, stated earlier this year that he would select a woman to be his vice-presidential choice.

Again, based first on gender and not on being the most qualified person. In the case of Joe Biden, he selected the staunch abortionist, Kamela Harris.


Kamala Harris

Because of the age and apparent health issues with Joe Biden, many believe that Kamala Harris will actually replace him or at minimum be mainly the de facto president should Joe Biden get elected.

From what I have been able to tell about both Amy Coney Barrett and Kamela Harris is that they both seem to be willing to support aspects of totalitarian government controls.

The Bible itself warns that if the children of Israel sinned and did not repent, the following would happen:

12 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)

So, we see a specific biblical prophecy warning of a time where there will be female rulers. And actually, having had women like Ruth Bader Ginsburg on the US Supreme Court and Hillary Clinton as Secretary of State, women have been rulers to a significant degree in the USA.

Donald Trump is hoping to continue that ‘legacy,’ if he can get his Supreme Court nominee approved.

Notice also the following about Amy Coney Barrett:

In September 2017, The New York Times reported that Barrett was an active member of a small, tightly knit Charismatic Christian group called People of Praise.[86][87] Founded in South Bend, the group is associated with the Catholic Charismatic Renewal movement; it is ecumenical and not formally affiliated with the Catholic Church, but approximately 90 percent of its members are Catholic. (Amy Coney Barrett. Wikipedia, accessed 09/26/20)

The Bible warns against the ecumenical movement that is emerging in the world in Revelation 13.

Furthermore, true Christians do not want to be part of it. Notice the following from the Apostle Paul:

17 … “Come out from among them
And be separate, says the Lord.
Do not touch what is unclean,
And I will receive you.” (2 Corinthians 6:17)

Yes, true Christians do not support the ecumenical movement

Getting back to leaders, the Bible also warns:

16 For the leaders of this people cause them to err, And those who are led by them are destroyed. (Isaiah 9:16)

We are in the last days and related to those, the Apostle Paul warned:

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! (2 Timothy 3:1-5)

Many of those statements apply to modern political leaders, including judges and people who wish to be president.

Without national repentance the USA is doomed (cf. Habakkuk 2:6-8).

Another female judge or a possible female vice-president will not truly fix the problems in the USA.

Its British=descended allies of the UK, Canada, Australia, and New Zealand have all had female prime ministers, none of which believed truly obeying the Bible.

It will take the return of Jesus Christ and the establishment of the Kingdom of God to solve the problems facing the USA, its British-descended allies, and the rest of the world.
