Matt. 6: 19-21- True Treasure- The Scriptures say, “Don’t lay up treasures for yourself on earth where moth and rust consume and thieves break in and steal, but lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven where neither moth nor rust consumes and where thieves can not break in and steal. For where your treasure is, there will be your heart also. Why lay up treasures that won’t last (material goods), when you can stockpile treasures that will last forever (souls saved). Our society measures people by the size of their bank account, which may disappear in an instant but God measures us by our devotion to serving Him. Many Christians will find themselves paupers in heaven because they did not lay up treasures for eternity. You can not take what you gather on earth with you when you go, but you can send eternal treasure ahead for when you get there.

Democrats are engaged in a propaganda war to win elections because they cannot win them through the votes of those who support their policies because the majority of Americans do not support their liberal policies. They don’t want to debate the issues because they know their policies aren’t popular.  Instead, they make all kinds of frivolous charges against their opponents just before an election to turn their supporters against them and have been fairly successful at times but not at others. Once the elections are over, they suddenly go silent and do not pursue the charges because they had no basis in fact, but by then they have served their purpose because the damage has already been done. They have been celebrating the victories of two governors and the mayor of New York as evidence that the Republicans are losing support, however if you look at the facts, it is easy to understand how they won. Democrats have controlled those States and New York City for a long time. New York City especially has a long history of political corruption. They have liberal election policies allowing a wide range of election fraud. They also have liberal welfare policies and strong union control that makes large numbers of people dependent on the government. They manipulate them to vote for them by telling them the Republicans will cut their benefits.  In addition, those who track interstate migration report that thousands of people and many companies are leaving those States because of high taxes and business regulations, and poor economies, as well as liberal policies on abortion, Gay rights, and transgender confusion being taught in the schools, so those remaining are going to be predominantly Democrats.

Democrats complain President Trump is putting a ballroom into the Whitehouse. Others did all kinds of renovations for at far more cost, all at taxpayer expense, and nobody said anything. In fact, Trump is using his money and donations from private donors with no tax money. While they put in ball courts and other frivolous things, he is putting in a place to hold State dinners. It is shameful that the United States, the largest most powerful nation in the world, has to erect a tent on the lawn or rent a hall someplace with all the cost and problems of security, if they want to host a State dinner or other major affair. President Trump isn’t doing it for his own enjoyment, he is doing it for the good of the country. He serves without pay and generally looks out for the good of the American people. He has sacrificed a great deal to take a job that continually causes him grief and he has been constantly been slandered by liberal politicians and media. While he makes mistakes, he is only human, his desire appears to be to help the American people. I don’t agree with him on some things but I feel he is doing what he feels is needed to restore the American dream for Americans. President Biden left him a terrible mess financially and socially and he has had to take measures no President should have to take to keep the country afloat. I have seen many presidents but never one as generous as President Trump.
