Breaking: in colonial and early US history, "learning" WAS about the Bible.
We were founded as a Christian nation. Ignore the gaslighting, believe the history.
When an American soldier passes in service to our nation, Melania Trump sits down at her desk and handwrites a personal letter to that soldier’s MOTHER.
Not typed by White House staff. Not a printed template where she just adds her signature. Melania’s OWN HANDWRITING. Every. Single. Word. Personal messages about the soldier’s sacrifice, about eternal gratitude, about a mother’s unbearable loss, about America never forgetting. Each letter takes HOURS to write. Not minutes. HOURS. Because Melania writes slowly, carefully, choosing every word perfectly - because she KNOWS this grieving mother will read this letter over and over and over for the rest of her life.
Since 2017, Melania has written HUNDREDS of these letters. One for EVERY fallen soldier. Hundreds of hours of her personal time. And here’s what absolutely destroys me: Gold Star mothers across America have Melania’s handwritten letters FRAMED on their living room walls. Melania could SO EASILY have staff type beautiful letters and she could just sign them.
Would save HUNDREDS of hours. But she REFUSES. “These mothers lost their ENTIRE WORLD. The absolute LEAST I can do is give them HOURS of my time writing in my own hand to honor their loss personally.” While the world obsesses over Melania’s public silence, they completely MISS her loudest service: hundreds upon hundreds of hours spent alone at a desk, writing to grieving mothers in careful handwriting.
Here’s the truth: Melania’s pen honors fallen soldiers one mother, one letter, one HOUR at a time.
*Idk who these beautiful words came from, but I thought they should be shared so the world knows the heart of our beautiful First Lady @MELANIATRUMP.
I don’t know who needs to hear this, but:
Demons are not afraid of sage.
Demons are not afraid of reiki.
Demons are not afraid of crystals.
Demons are not afraid of tarot cards.
Demons are only afraid of JESUS CHRIST.
Did the Tanach Already Tell Us Who the Messiah Is?
The Tanach does not introduce the Messiah all at once. It reveals Him in layers. Promise by promise. Shadow by shadow. A figure begins to move through the text long before He is named.
It starts in Eden.
“I will put enmity between you and the woman,
and between your offspring and hers;
he will crush your head,
and you will strike his heel.”
Genesis 3:15
A human deliverer is promised at the dawn of history. He is wounded in the act of victory. The serpent strikes, but the serpent is crushed. Suffering and triumph are joined in a single act. From the beginning, redemption will be costly.
The Torah deepens the pattern through sacrifice.
Isaac asks:
“The fire and wood are here… but where is the lamb?”
Genesis 22:7
Abraham answers:
“God himself will provide the lamb.”
Genesis 22:8
A son walks toward death. A father declares that God will supply the offering. The ram that appears is mercy in the moment, but the statement echoes forward. God Himself will provide the lamb. The question is postponed, not erased.
At Passover, the nation learns how deliverance works.
“When I see the blood, I will pass over you.”
Exodus 12:13
Judgment is turned aside by substitution. A spotless life stands in the place of the guilty. Redemption is written into Israel’s memory as blood, rescue, and new beginning.
Then Moses makes a startling promise.
“The Lord your God will raise up for you a prophet like me…
You must listen to him.”
Deuteronomy 18:15
Not merely another prophet, but a decisive voice. A mediator greater than Moses, carrying authority that demands obedience.
The Psalms pull back the curtain further.
“I have installed my king on Zion…
You are my son; today I have become your father.”
Psalm 2:6–7
And the nations are warned:
“Kiss the son…
Blessed are all who take refuge in him.”
Psalm 2:12
Refuge is language reserved for God. Yet trust in the Son is commanded as the path to blessing. Kings must bow to Him.
David then writes something even stranger:
“The Lord says to my lord:
‘Sit at my right hand
until I make your enemies
a footstool for your feet.’”
Psalm 110:1
David calls this future figure “my lord.” He sits beside God in shared rule. And he is declared:
“A priest forever,
in the order of Melchizedek.”
Psalm 110:4
An eternal priest-king. Not Levitical. Not temporary. A ruler whose authority and mediation never end.
The suffering thread surfaces in haunting detail.
“My God, my God, why have you forsaken me? …
They pierce my hands and my feet…
They divide my clothes among them.”
Psalm 22
Public humiliation. Piercing. Mockery. Yet the psalm ends in global worship:
“All the ends of the earth
will remember and turn to the Lord.”
Psalm 22:27
Suffering gives way to worldwide recognition.
Isaiah unites kingship and divinity in one child.
“For to us a child is born,
to us a son is given…
He will be called
Mighty God…
Of the greatness of his government…
there will be no end.”
Isaiah 9:6–7
A son born in time. A ruler without end. A child bearing divine titles. The Davidic king is somehow more than David.
Micah adds the paradox:
“…one who will be ruler over Israel,
whose origins are from of old,
from ancient times.”
Micah 5:2
Born in Bethlehem, yet older than Bethlehem. Entering history from eternity.
Then Isaiah 53 speaks with surgical clarity.
“He was despised and rejected…
a man of suffering…
he was pierced for our transgressions…
the Lord has laid on him
the iniquity of us all.”
Isaiah 53
The servant suffers not for His own guilt, but for others. His life becomes an offering for sin. Yet death is not His end:
“He will see the light of life…
and justify many.”
Isaiah 53:11
He suffers, dies, and yet lives to vindication.
Zechariah records God saying:
“They will look on me,
the one they have pierced…”
Zechariah 12:10
The pierced one is spoken of with divine voice. Mourning over Him becomes the turning point of a nation.
The king still comes.
“See, your king comes to you…
lowly and riding on a donkey…
His rule will extend from sea to sea.”
Zechariah 9:9–10
Humility first. Universal dominion after.
The shepherd is struck:
“Strike the shepherd,
and the sheep will be scattered…”
Zechariah 13:7
Loss leads to purification. Wounding leads to restoration.
Jeremiah names the ruler:
“I will raise up for David a righteous Branch…
This is the name by which he will be called:
The Lord Our Righteous Savior.”
Jeremiah 23:5–6
A Davidic king bearing the name of the Lord Himself.
Daniel finally sees the coronation.
“One like a son of man,
coming with the clouds of heaven…
He was given authority, glory and sovereign power;
all nations… worshiped him.
His dominion is everlasting.”
Daniel 7:13–14
A human figure riding the clouds, receiving worship, ruling eternally. In the Tanach, those are divine prerogatives.
Put the strands together and the portrait becomes unavoidable:
A serpent-crushing deliverer
A lamb provided by God
A prophet greater than Moses
A Son who receives refuge
David’s Lord and eternal priest
A pierced righteous sufferer
A child called Mighty God
A ruler born in Bethlehem from eternity
A shepherd struck for the flock
A Davidic king named the Lord our righteousness
A Son of Man worshiped by all nations
Two expectations merge into one:
the suffering redeemer and the reigning king.
Ben Yosef and Ben David in a single figure.
The Tanach is not describing two Messiahs.
It is describing one.
And at the center of that ancient portrait stands
Yeshua HaMashiach.
This thread is worth resharing: 👇
Dear Israel and the Jewish people,
Every nation may turn against you. But I, as a Christian, never will.
Every government may want Israel removed from the map. But I, as a Christian, will always defend you.
Everyone you know may turn their back on you, but I, as a Christian, will stand by your side.
Where you go, I go. Where you stay, I stay. Your people are my people.
Both Old and New Testaments teach that God loves you, has incredible plans for you, and is on your side. Therefore, so am I. And I always will be.
Dear Israel and the Jewish people, even if the whole world comes against you, as long as there are true Bible-believing Christians on this earth, you will never be alone.
Signed with love,
The Christian Church
You may be frustrated by our nation’s immoral agenda and its animosity toward God, but you can be confident that even now Christ is building His church.

@VoltsThoughts @LeonardG56161@farmingandJesus I love it. I find it very worshipful. 65 yr old boomer here. Heaven is gonna be loud with worship so they better bring earplugs! :)
@becker_steven13@Indignationpunk Dear brother, is it like crashing waves and peals of thunder? Heaven is going to be filled with loud praise and rejoicing to our King! Rev 19:6 I look forward to that day! This is a wonderful song of praise!
Bill Clinton: “Palestinians were offered a state on the entire West Bank and east Jerusalem as its capital. Israel accepted, but Palestinians refused. They did not care about a homeland for the Palestinians. All they wanted was to kill Israelis"
This must be shared every day.
