I very much enjoyed this piece. Again we see what God promises us in Isaiah and Phillipians, that "every knee shall bow and every tongue confess."

Trump's second term compares to Napoleon's truimphant return from exile on Elba, and I pray that Trump doesn't flame out into permanent exile as Napoleon did on St. Helena. Our Deep State is just as determined to rid themselves of Trump as the ancien regimes of Europe were to rid themselves of Napoleon.

An excellent exposition of that with which I struggled when I went off to college. So I followed in Mr Bonaparte's footsteps. Could do worse, I suppose! All that and One More Thing: I've felt the Hand of God in my life. Jesus is still here.

Thought provoking piece.

Perhaps Napoleon realized that he was mortal and Jesus Christ is immortal. Has Trump come to the same conclusion? Both great leaders, Napoleon and Trump, perhaps have learned that it is God that raises rulers up and it is God that takes them down. This is clearly taught in the book of Daniel.

History is fascinating and can teach us of the past. Prophesy is more fascinating and can teach us the future. The Bible contains both, lessons of the past and future. It would do well for current leaders to become proficient in the Bible while they have temporary power.
