Hillary Clinton secured the Democratic nomination for the Presidency of the United States:<\/p>\n

July 27, 2016<\/p>\n

Philadelphia (CNN)<\/cite> Democrats on Tuesday made Hillary Clinton the first woman to head a major party ticket …<\/div>\n
“What an incredible honor that you have given me, and I can’t believe we just put the biggest crack in that glass ceiling yet,” Clinton said via satellite after a video montage showed the faces of all 44 male presidents before shattering like glass to reveal Clinton waiting to address the convention from New York.\u00a0http:\/\/www.cnn.com\/2016\/07\/26\/politics\/democratic-convention-roll-call-day-two\/<\/a><\/div>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Ever since Margaret Thatcher was prime minister of the United Kingdom, I have felt that it is likely that the USA would end up with a female president or at least a highly influential woman in a top level federal government job. As it turns out, the four remaining predominantly British-descended nations (the United Kingdom, Canada, Australia, and New Zealand) all have had not only queens (they shared the same ones), but all have already had a woman in the office of prime minister.<\/p>\n

The prime minister is the chief executive official in a parliamentary system of governance. As far as the USA goes, back in 2006 (News of The Churches of God<\/a>) and 2007 (News of The Churches of God<\/a>) I also commented about a possible Hillary Clinton presidency, and feel that it remains a strong possibility today\u2013though not a certainty. As most of you realize, a couple of weeks ago, the UK got its second female Prime Minister (see Theresa May, now UK Prime Minister, appoints Boris Johnson Foreign Minister. What is Article 50?<\/a>). Mrs. Clinton and Theresa May bring the following scripture to mind:<\/p>\n

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.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Notice that the above verse is pointing towards disaster. Of course, it is not that males leaders cannot lead to disaster–for they can. Notice also the following, which does not mention gender:<\/p>\n

16 For the leaders of this people cause them to err, And those who are led by them are destroyed (Isaiah 9:16).<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

And in the USA, for example, there was a male president and a male attorney general who decided NOT to enforce the federal Defense of Marriage Act (signed into law by then President Bill Clinton), and later that same male President, Barack Obama, publicly backed homosexual marriage and other aspects of the LGBT agenda.<\/p>\n

Lest this sound partisan, we also had the LGBT agenda promoted by the male Republican nominee Donald Trump (see Donald Trump accepts nomination and vows to protect the LGBT crowd<\/a>) as well as a homosexual speaker at the Republican convention last week. The Bible clearly teaches that those who condone sexual immorality, including homosexuality and lesbianism, deserve death (Romans 1:18-32).<\/p>\n

Hence, the Bible points to problems with immoral leaders, irrespective of gender.<\/p>\n

Anyway, let\u2019s look again at Isaiah 3 and notice more of what it warns:<\/p>\n

9 The look on their countenance witnesses against them,
\nAnd they declare their sin as Sodom;
\nThey do not hide it.
\nWoe to their soul!
\nFor they have brought evil upon themselves.<\/p>\n

10 \u201cSay to the righteous that it shall be well with them,
\nFor they shall eat the fruit of their doings.
\n11 Woe to the wicked! It shall be ill with him,
\nFor the reward of his hands shall be given him.
\n12 As for My people, children are their oppressors,
\nAnd women rule over them.
\nO My people! Those who lead you cause you to err,
\nAnd destroy the way of your paths.\u201d (Isaiah 3:9-12)<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Notice the declaration of sins like Sodom. This is a reference to what has been called ‘gay pride.’<\/p>\n

What does this have to do with Mrs. Clinton or Mrs. May?<\/p>\n

Well, Theresa May was one of the first in her party to support it:<\/p>\n

In May 2012, May expressed support for the introduction of same-sex marriage by recording a video for the Out4Marriage<\/a> campaign. May became one of the first high-profile Conservative MPs to pledge personal support for same-sex marriage. (Theresa May, Wikipedia, accessed 7\/30\/16)<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

And Hillary Clinton? In her book Hard Choices, she wrote that pushing the LGBT agenda was one of her top four “key priorities” while she was Secretary of State (Clinton HR. Hard Choices. Simon & Schuster, 2014, p. 27). Notice what God teaches about those that accept that type of agenda:<\/p>\n

32… those who practice such things are deserving of death, not only do the same but also approve of those who practice them. (Romans 1:32)<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Should these sins be pointed out? Notice something else from Isaiah:<\/p>\n

1 Cry aloud, spare not;
\nLift up your voice like a trumpet;
\nTell My people their transgression,
\nAnd the house of Jacob their sins. (Isaiah 58:1)<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

And it seems interesting that two females leaders in the UK and USA are promoting sins that the New Testament–especially since both claim (erroneously, I should add) that they are Christian (Hillary Clinton claims to be United Methodist and Theresa May claims the Church of England).<\/p>\n

Back in 2006 (News of The Churches of God<\/a>) and 2007 (News of The Churches of God<\/a>) I also commented about a possible Hillary Clinton presidency, and feel that it remains a strong possibility today\u2013though not a certainty. If she does get elected, this, in my view, will be a fulfillment of Isaiah 3:12 (though her being Secretary of State, also partially fulfilled this as well).<\/p>\n

As far as women go, the old Plain Truth <\/em>magazine had the following back in 1969:<\/p>\n

The Bible foretold, in advance, the exact overall conditions that would confront the nations of the English-speaking world today \u2014 the end-time descendants of the ancient House of Israel. . . In this advance warning to our nations we read: “As for my people, children are their oppressors, and women rule over them. O my people, they which lead thee” \u2014 including sociologists and others who condone sexual freedom, espouse a “never punish” philosophy for child rearing \u2014 “cause thee to err, and destroy the way of thy paths” (Isaiah 3:12). Whether you believe this prophecy was directed toward our people or not \u2014 you have to admit it describes our day and age! …<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Utter Confusion<\/strong><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

In the Western, “progressive” world; the sexes already are beginning to dress alike and wear their hair alike \u2014 or, in some cases, switch styles. “Unisex” fashions are becoming the “in thing” in some circles. Even leading department stores are featuring “unisex” lines in special boutique booths. Leading magazines point up the growth of “hippy communes.” “Unisex,” “free sex,” “swinging singles,” “wife swapping,” “the Pill,” “sexual revolution” \u2014 these are the phrases newspaper headlines are made of today. Utter confusion about sex, marriage and the family is rampant. But where are all these changes leading us? Many leading specialists who study family life admit that the family is changing profoundly. But they do not agree on what it is becoming or where it ought to go from here.(Armstrong GT. Modern Romans, Part 1, Plain Truth, August 1969)<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

The ‘utter confusion’ that began in the late 1960s has worsened in the 21st century. It is now to the point that the ‘liberal elite’ say you cannot tell a male from a female by their anatomy, but need to accept whatever ‘gender’ someone wishes to identify themselves by. That being said, it is not that a woman in necessarily a worse leader than a man, but there are warnings in scripture.<\/p>\n

Notice also the following about the prophetess Deborah:<\/p>\n

4 Now Deborah, a prophetess, the wife of Lapidoth, was judging Israel at that time. 5 And she would sit under the palm tree of Deborah between Ramah and Bethel in the mountains of Ephraim. And the children of Israel came up to her for judgment. 6 Then she sent and called for Barak the son of Abinoam from Kedesh in Naphtali, and said to him, “Has not the Lord God of Israel commanded, ‘Go and deploy troops at Mount Tabor; take with you ten thousand men of the sons of Naphtali and of the sons of Zebulun; 7 and against you I will deploy Sisera, the commander of Jabin’s army, with his chariots and his multitude at the River Kishon; and I will deliver him into your hand’?” 8 And Barak said to her, “If you will go with me, then I will go; but if you will not go with me, I will not go!” 9 So she said, “I will surely go with you; nevertheless there will be no glory for you in the journey you are taking, for the Lord will sell Sisera into the hand of a woman.” (Judges 4:4-9)<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Deborah held a leadership position, but even she indicated that it was to a male leader’s shame. But most in the USA overlook what the Bible teaches.<\/p>\n

While the Bible lists many roles for women (cf. Proverbs 31), there are some roles that are discouraged and some that are prohibited (see Women and the New Testament Church<\/a>). Beyond that, though, the Bible lists standards for leaders, that neither the Democratic nor Republican nominees possess:<\/p>\n

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)<\/p>\n

2 \u201cThe Spirit of the Lord spoke by me,
\nAnd His word was on my tongue.
\n3 The God of Israel said,
\nThe Rock of Israel spoke to me:
\n\u2018He who rules over men must be just,
\nRuling in the fear of God. (2 Samuel 23:2-3)<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

None of the major candidates for the USA presidency hate covetousness, have the proper fear of God, nor proper respect for His laws and statutes.<\/p>\n

Notice something else related to women in Isaiah 3:<\/p>\n

16 Moreover the Lord says:<\/p>\n

“Because the daughters of Zion are haughty,
\nAnd walk with outstretched necks
\nAnd wanton eyes,
\nWalking and mincing as they go,
\nMaking a jingling with their feet,
\n17 Therefore the Lord will strike with a scab
\nThe crown of the head of the daughters of Zion,
\nAnd the Lord will uncover their secret parts.”<\/p>\n

18 In that day the Lord will take away the finery:
\nThe jingling anklets, the scarves, and the crescents;
\n19 The pendants, the bracelets, and the veils;
\n20 The headdresses, the leg ornaments, and the headbands;
\nThe perfume boxes, the charms, 21 and the rings;
\nThe nose jewels, 22 the festal apparel, and the mantles;
\nThe outer garments, the purses, 23 and the mirrors;
\nThe fine linen, the turbans, and the robes.<\/p>\n

24 And so it shall be:<\/p>\n

Instead of a sweet smell there will be a stench;
\nInstead of a sash, a rope;
\nInstead of well-set hair, baldness;
\nInstead of a rich robe, a girding of sackcloth;
\nAnd branding instead of beauty.
\n25 Your men shall fall by the sword,
\nAnd your mighty in the war.<\/p>\n

26 Her gates shall lament and mourn,
\nAnd she being desolate shall sit on the ground. (Isaiah 3:16-26)<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

With both Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump, the following passages of scripture come to mind:<\/p>\n

17 ‘This decision is by the decree of the watchers, And the sentence by the word of the holy ones, In order that the living may know That the Most High rules in the kingdom of men, Gives it to whomever He will, And sets over it the lowest of men.’ (Daniel 4:17) <\/span> 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). <\/span><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Irrespective of which of the two candidates gets elected in the USA, expect that, in time, there will be problems and that whoever gets in will do things to the shame of the USA.<\/p>\n

Pray (1 Timothy 2:1-3).<\/span><\/p>\n
