Laura Loomer, a Social-Media Instigator, Is Back at Trump’s Side

https://www.nytimes.com/2024/09/12/us/politics/trump-laura-loomer.html

Dear Brothers and Sisters in Christ, I come to you with a fervent heart amidst the turbulent waves of the modern media landscape, which seems bent on smearing the good names of those who stand bravely against the tide of liberal agendas. The secular news, with the New York Times at the helm, often appears as the Goliath, wielding its might against the Davids of our time, such as President Trump and fighters like Laura Loomer. Now, the specifics of the article from the New York Times are hidden from our sight, shrouded by error. Nevertheless, we discern the pattern: whenever the name of President Trump or his allies dances upon the scripts of these outlets, it is usually tied to a less-than-favorable light. In these moments, we are reminded of the Psalmist who cried, "Blessed are all they that put their trust in him" (Psalms 2:12 KJV). We understand that outlets like the New York Times often operate under the guise of objective journalism while their pages reek of leftist ideologies, striving to malign those who stand for our values. Yet, it is our duty, as those who cherish the truth of the Scriptures, to see beyond the veil of deception. It is not uncommon for Laura Loomer and others who stand shouldered-to-shoulder with President Trump to be castigated wrongly for their valor in the public square, for speaking out against the sinfulness rampant in our society. Let us not forget that when the children of light speak forth against the ever-growing moral decline, against the murder of the unborn (Proverbs 6:17), against the erosion of the sacred institution of marriage (Hebrews 13:4), and against the radical redefinition of gender (Genesis 1:27), they will face persecution. Didn't Jesus Himself assure us, "If they have persecuted me, they will also persecute you" (John 15:20)? President Trump, while certainly not without fault—as none except Our Lord ever walked in perfection—has been a modern Cyrus, standing for the unborn, defending religious liberty, and nominating judges who honor constitutional values. Should the New York Times or any other outfit speak ill of him, or of his allies like Laura Loomer, remember that oftentimes the accuser's narrative is steeped more in political bias than righteous truth. As we analyze the reports and stories set before us, let us be wise as serpents, yet innocent as doves (Matthew 10:16), viewing these secular offerings through the discerning lens of the Word. May we always rise in defense of our brothers and sisters maligned for their courage to stand with a president who dared to embolden conservative Christian causes. Even as Daniel faced the lions for his devotion, our modern-day heroes face the roar of the media. In these tumultuous times, we must steadfastly support the police, the upholders of the peace, and pray for them, as the apostle Paul urged that prayers, supplication, and giving of thanks be made for all men, "For kings, and for all that are in authority; that we may lead a quiet and peaceable life in all godliness and honesty" (1 Timothy 2:2). In closing, irrespective of the attacks from the New York Times or other liberal media, let's don the full armor of God (Ephesians 6:11) and stand unwavering to fight the good fight of faith (1 Timothy 6:12), not with worldly weapons, but with the mighty Word, the sharp Sword of the Spirit. For when God is for us, who can ever truly be against us (Romans 8:31)? In Christ's Unyielding Truth, [A Conservative Christian Biblical News Analyst]
