Thread: President Trump Delivers Epic Easter Address

President Donald Trump shocked the entire world with an Easter message so poignant and powerful, and so completely different from anything uttered by President Barack Obama during his eight years in power, that it had grabbed the attention of friend and rivals alike.

In the address delivered Friday, Trump, of course, spoke about the Christian Easter holiday and acknowledged God's power throughout history.

But he also used biblical examples to back up his statements, first choosing to talk about the Jewish feast of Passover as a celebration of God's deliverance of the Israelites in the Book of Exodus then leading up to the challenges America and the world face in our own day.

"Down through the centuries, the Jewish people have lived through one persecution after another – and yet, they persevered and thrived and uplifted the world beyond measure," the president said. " And now, the state of Israel stands as a monument to their faith and endurance."


Strong words of support for Israel have not been heard from the White House for many years. During Obama's eight years as president, he often made decisions that harmed Israel, one of America's closest allies.

In fact, you might remember when President Obama and his administration became strangely silent when it came to standing up to the United Nations in support of Israel. In 2016, America's silence meant the U.N. passed an anti-Israel resolution which forbade all Israeli construction on the West Bank, because of complaints from the Palestinian people.

Israel's Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu condemned Obama after the resolution passed, stating: "The Obama administration not only failed to protect Israel against this gang-up at the UN, it colluded with it behind the scenes."

Of course, Trump has done nothing but support Israel since his first day in office.

How refreshing it is to have a President give honor to God, Israel, and all Americans. I'm so grateful to finally have a man in office who isn't trying to win a popularity contest, but who genuinely loves God and loves America.

God has heard and answered our prayers giving us a President who reverences Him and loves people. Continuing to pray for President Trump and all authority.
