" What do you believe God is saying to America in this hour?"
What He has always said...."Repent! And believe the Gospel".
And nothing says that more than the Word of God being read from the capital for a week.

Trump is reading from Chronicles, so Christ won't be preached.
There are additional words from God we should consider when thinking of a national leader reading the Bible to his people:
But to the wicked God says: “What right have you to recite my statutes, or take my covenant on your lips? For you hate discipline, and you cast my words behind you. (Ps 50:16-17, RSV)
But when they came to the nations, wherever they came, they profaned my holy name, in that men said of them, ‘These are the people of the LORD, and yet they had to go out of his land.’ But I had concern for my holy name, which the house of Israel caused to be profaned among the nations to which they came. (Ezek 36:20-21, RSV)
How long will it be before a President may decide to read to us from the Koran? The rule of civil government is one thing, the rule in the spiritual, the church is another. Keep them separate, yes, separation of Church and State.
They said, “Caesar’s.” Then he said to them, “Render therefore to Caesar the things that are Caesar’s, and to God the things that are God’s.” (Matt 22:21, RSV)
Disclosure: I did vote for Trump both in 2020 and 2024.
However, I don't think I've ever seen a President in my lifetime (from either party) who has been idolized as much as he has been.
I don't consider myself to be MAGA; I was voting for (what I believed at the time to be) the "less bad" option.
I am conservative politically, but I do not support the New Apostolic Reformation (NAR), Word of Faith (WoF), Dominionism, Theonomy or Christian Nationalism.
"From the same mouth come blessing and cursing. My brethren, this ought not to be so. Does a spring pour forth from the same opening fresh water and brackish? Can a fig tree, my brethren, yield olives, or a grapevine figs? No more can salt water yield fresh." (Jas 3:10-12, RSV)
If it weren't so sad, Trump reading the Bible in public is laughable!
It is good to read your post. I too have voted for Donald Trump the 3 times he has run for President because the alternative just seemed unthinkable! But, with the drift of the country now, my votes of any importance will be in the Primaries, and I may have to just sit out the National elections in the future. The attack on the American rule of separation of "Church" and State" is astounding and quite scary! Church/evangelical establishments, stay out of our government, and Washington, stay out of the Churches!
When the antichrist becomes our world leader, he's not going to read from the Bible, but demand your allegiance and loyalty.
You won't even be allowed to criticize him on these forums.
So enjoy Pres. Trump while you can. You're going to miss these days when the antichrist is your world-leader who you won't have voted for.

TDS runs deep in many.Trump is reading from Chronicles, so Christ won't be preached.
It's already happening in Canada, you're not allowed to criticize the PM.
We have Canadians on this site that are so focused on the USA, they have not a clue that Canada is at Defcon 1.It's already happening in Canada, you're not allowed to criticize the PM.

Obama did the same thing. We(constitutional conservatives) knew that Christian democrats did not and would not consider Hussein Obama Christ.Like every other president before him, he's a politician.
I've prayed for him and realize he's gone through unspeakable persecution. He's accomplished more good in his first 6 months than any that I'm aware of.
However, he's not beyond reproach or criticism from his Christian supporters.
His actions recently are counter to the reasons most voted for him.
It looks to me like he's trying to save face, his former supporters by reading the Bible and meeting with his "Christian" preachers.
Let's face it, he gave himself a big black eye and this seems like an ice pack and some makeup to make it look better.
You guys are unbelievable!
And that is the lie of the main stream deception crew.His actions recently are counter to the reasons most voted for him.
Have you heard the story about St Peter showing new arrivals around heaven. He was showing them all the sites when they came to a high wall, someone asked what was it for. Keep your voice down, said St Peter, that's where the Americans are, they think they are the only ones here.
You guys are unbelievable!
