I'm so happy for the Syrian people. For 13 years they've suffered war and destruction and now they fought off a 57 year dictatorship. Putin has no foothold in the middle east now and I can't help but wonder if this is a preclude to him being toppled in his own country š¤.
Whatever government that comes out of this, I just hope it gives the Syrian people the chance to live in freedom and to have a say in their government.
Hey Robert, this is slightly off topic but I'm part of a group on reddit called progressive Christians and there aren't a lot but there are some who are equating Trump's re-election and an award he's gotten from the Israeli heritage foundation to him being the anti-christ.
I know you've already did a post on this long ago and you've done multiple on why we shouldn't take the Bible literally on this front but if you could do like an updated version of it with recent events so I could share it with the group. I would appreciate it.
With Trump he belongs to an unusual group of Christians who follow what they call the prosperity gospel. They believe that God rewards Christians that are good followers of Jesus with material wealth. So they see Trump's wealth as evidence of him being favoured by God.
There is no scriptural basis for this. But that's what they believe. I go into it here:
Yes I think a combine of these would be great. Especially Trump's prosperity gospel with the global worshipping emperor. I also remember one of your post talking about how a literal battle of Armageddon is not really possible because it is very small and would not fit a million soldiers for an actual final battle, I can't remember what post that was but I think that would also help.

Oh okay. Yes this comes up with every president-elect and president, a claim they are the anti-christ. I can do a Trump one.
This is my Biden one:

There is nothing there even remotely resembles teh idea of an antichrist though.
Trump isn't trying to get anyone to worship him.
I talk about the difference between emperor worship and celebrity fans here:

ā NO EMPEROR WORSHIP in most of the world since the fall of the Roman empire

So combining those two could be useful perhaps. Is this what you have in mind? Also any of my other debunks that may be relevant?

Oh okay that is the euphrates post, possibly elsewhere to. I can easily add it.
