Soli Deo Gloria! The new incoming president Javier Milei has called out Jorge Bergoglio (sadly: a.k.a. – Pope Francis) for being a filthy Marxist. Bravo! He reportedly has been studying the Jewish faith. Prayers for thanksgiving , with prayers going forward for Christian revival in Argentina, including President Javier accepting Jesus Christ as his personal Lord and Savior through Messianic Judaism, if he hasn’t already.
Just a thought for a prayer list, adding your own: Israel, Ukrainian people to be free from both the Soviets and their own oligarchs, Hungary, Poland. And persecuted Christians, be they current or future Christians: Nigeria; Iran (fastest growing Christian church in the world, see movie: “Sheep among Wolves – Part 2” – free on youbute); Kurds, Armenians.
If we look at a comparative study between neighboring Argentina and Chile, there is a really bizarre paradox to date:
At the turn into the 20th century, there would have been close to even bets on which country was on the upswing given the blessing of rich natural resources: The U.S. or Argentina? Sadly, Argentina turned to Socialism. Next door, in the early 1970s, Chile reversed course from Socialism to a free market economy. This resulted in an amazing turn to the positive for Chile and to the negative to Argentina. With the election of Milei, are we going to see a reverse turn in the other direction for each of these two neighboring countries? (see link below) Chile couldn’t stand their blessing, so they turned to Socialism just recently, following the U.S. Yes, a prayer of thanksgiving for Milei’s election, but politics is not our savior!
We can’t lose, for our Triune God cannot lose! Always connected by His grace and through prayer…
Soli Deo Gloria!
