What Amy Coney Barrett’s Supreme Court Nomination Means For The 2020 Election<\/h2>\n

September 27, 2020<\/p>\n

Supporters and opponents of Amy Coney Barrett’s nomination to the Supreme Court wasted no time launching a high-pitched battle over her confirmation, with just 37 days until the election. …<\/p>\n

It also means it will likely be a central issue in key Senate races around the country. Control of the chamber is in play this election, and Republicans are fighting off stiff challenges in several states where the issue is beginning to pop up in ads.<\/p>\n

Recent polls have shown Democratic nominee Joe Biden ahead of President Trump<\/a>, but the focus has largely been on the president’s handling of the coronavirus. Changing the subject to the future of the court, and the prospect of a 6-3 conservative majority, could help energize GOP voters in key swing states<\/a> and inject new urgency into the election. …<\/p>\n

But while Trump is predicting expediency this time, senators on both sides of the aisle and outside groups gearing up for a contentious process have no illusions that it will be easy, even with the outcome not really in any doubt. …<\/p>\n

GOP supporters were already trying to frame her pick as appealing to women. The Senate Republicans’ campaign arm began selling T-shirts<\/a> with “Notorious A.C.B.” emblazed on them. …<\/p>\n

a Washington Post-ABC poll<\/a> released on Friday shows there could be backlash to the vote this close to the election. Fifty-seven percent of those polled said the nomination of a justice to the high court should wait until after the election, and 38% backed action now by the president and the GOP-controlled Senate. …<\/p>\n

Outside groups framed Barrett as potentially casting the deciding vote on the court on the ACA. Demand Justice, a progressive group formed to oppose the president’s nominees, dubbed Barrett “anti-ACA Amy Coney Barrett<\/a>” and argued the process moving ahead to hearings in weeks was unfair. …<\/p>\n

Biden’s running mate, Sen. Kamala Harris, D-Calif., is a member of the Senate Judiciary Committee and will get the chance to question Barrett<\/a>, a moment that will likely get wall-to-wall national television coverage.<\/p>\n

But with little ability to alter the outcome, she may use the opportunity to highlight the issues she thinks are at stake in the election, and spend less time drilling down into controversial topics that divide voters whom the ticket is hoping to attract.<\/p>\n

The two Democrats who are still in the Senate now who backed Barrett’s 2017 nomination to the federal bench \u2014 Sen. Joe Manchin of West Virginia and Sen. Tim Kaine of Virginia \u2014 said they would vote no now because of how Senate GOP leaders are handling the process.<\/p>\n

“I cannot support a process that risks further division of the American people at a time when we desperately need to come together. …,” Manchin said. https:\/\/www.npr.org\/2020\/09\/27\/917303199\/what-amy-coney-barretts-supreme-court-nomination-means-for-the-2020-election<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

The existence of a female Supreme Court nominee who takes her religion seriously is distasteful to a major portion of the US population.<\/p>\n

But, basically anyone that Donald Trump would have nominated would also cause about the same about of division that Amy Coney Barrett’s nomination is causing.<\/p>\n

Jesus warned:<\/p>\n

25 … Every kingdom divided against itself is brought to desolation, and every city or house divided against itself will not stand. (Matthew 12:25)<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

As far as the election goes, Republicans and Democrats both have indicated that the nomination of Amy Coney Barrett has energized various of their supporters.<\/p>\n

Though at this time, despite protests from Democrats, it looks like the Republicans are more energized.<\/p>\n

Of course that does not mean the election will necessarily go the way the Republicans want. The Republicans were somewhat energized when John McCain announced Sarah Palin as his running mate in 2008 (see Might Sarah Palin Fulfill Prophecy?<\/a>), but he still lost.<\/p>\n

If both Amy Coney Barrett and Democratic vice-presidential nominee Kamela Harris get the positions that they now aspire to, their supporters should realize that the Bible does not look favorably upon women leaders:<\/p>\n

12<\/sup> 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)<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

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.<\/p>\n

Now, one might point out the prophetess Deborah judged Israel (Judges 4). And that is true. And apparently she did well. But the Bible also indicates that was to the shame of Israel that this type of thing happened (Judges 5).<\/p>\n

Related to Amy Coney Barrett’s and Kamela Harris’ nominations, we put together the following video:<\/p>\n

Amy Coney Barrett and Prophecy?<\/a><\/h3>\n

On September 26, 2020, US President Donald Trump announced that he was nominating the Roman Catholic Amy Coney Barrett to become a justice on the US Supreme Court. Why did he say he wanted to nominate a woman? What are the biblical criteria for appointing judges? What are some of Amy Coney Barrett’s views. Why would Republicans and conservatives like her, while Democrats and liberals oppose her? Did a study from the Institute for Family Studies and the Wheatley Institution find that “the happiest of all American wives consider themselves religious conservatives.” Could Joe Biden’s vice-presidential choice of Kamela Harris have presidential potential? Are there any prophetic ramifications of having more women in rulership positions in the USA? Does the Bible warn about rulers and others in the last days? Dr. Thiel addresses these issues and more.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Here is a link to the video: Amy Coney Barrett and Prophecy?<\/a><\/p>\n

Regarding the US presidential election, we earlier put together the following video on our Bible News Prophecy<\/a> YouTube channel:<\/p>\n

Biden, Trump, and the Bible<\/a><\/h3>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

The USA presidential campaign is in full swing. Though Democratic party candidate Joe Biden and Republican party candidate Donald Trump have differing economic and climate policies as well as different views on abortion and racial matters, there are many similarities both share. Do they have policies that they share that are leading to the destruction of the USA? What do Bible prophecies reveal about sexual immorality, debt, and hypocrisy? What are some of the national sins of the USA? Does the Bible endorse voting? What did Jesus teach related to what to seek and pray for? What does the New Testament teach that Christians are to do related to leaders? Is the lesser of two evils still evil? Dr. Thiel goes over these matters, including going over eleven similarities the two major party candidates share and some of what the Bible teaches about evil.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Here is a link to our sermonette video: Biden, Trump, and the Bible<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Anyway, yes, the nomination of Amy Coney Barrett is expected to impact the presidential election.<\/p>\n

It also looks to be another item that will increase division in the USA.<\/p>\n

This will not end well for the USA according to Jesus.<\/p>\n
