'Prophet' Nathan French Says God Must Restore Trump to Office

Right Wing Watch

From the moment former President Donald Trump entered the White House, various self-proclaimed “prophets” guaranteed that he would be reelected in 2020 and serve eight years in office. One of those “prophets” was Nathan French, who is growing increasingly desperate with President Joe Biden in the White House, declaring during an appearance on the Elijah Streams program last Friday that Trump must be returned to office because people are starting to lose faith in the prophets.

“The Lord is going to bring Trump back in,” French proclaimed. “I believe that he knows deep down in his spirit, he knows that God has chosen him, not someone else. He’s flawed for sure—I don’t believe in some of the things he says about vaccines—but the truth is God called him as the trump card, and he’s gonna throw that card on the table in just the next few months, and you’re going to see how God is actually going to take back what the enemy tried to unauthorize, he tried to steal, and he tried to manipulate, and the whole system of how we elect people in the future will be restored.”

Host Steve Schultz then asked French how he responds to those who say the election was over a year ago and if God was going to restore Trump to office, it would have happened by now. French replied that God must restore Trump to office in order to silence those who are “trying to discredit the prophetic community.”

“I took a risk to prophesy over him and Melania,” French said. “What we’re seeing right now is the unraveling of the enemy’s plan because God’s been shining the light. … I saw the Lord shining a light into the dark places and all the scurrying of the evildoers or those who had worked against Christ with an Antichrist spirit. We’re gonna see God finish what he began. The word promises that he will finish the good work he began. Where people miss it and start trying to discredit the prophetic community is when they start getting the timeline messed up. If somebody gives a word that, ‘Hey, on this date, this person is going to be in office,’ and it doesn’t come to pass, then it was a false word. It wasn’t true. But if they give that word and the date that they gave hasn’t yet come to pass, you can’t call him a liar or [say] that they were wrong because the time hasn’t happened yet. If somebody doesn’t give a date and God gives a word and speaks through the voice of his prophets—which he’s doing on the Earth right now because there’s still prophets today. … There’s a whole bunch of people on the planet that don’t believe that there are still prophets on the Earth. And so they scripturally are trying to resolve that, and they’re teaching people that prophets no longer exist.”

It'll make it easier to keep moving them.

... why did he let him lose the election?

Surely the all-powerful God these people worship - the one who flooded the entire earth, destroyed Sodom & Gomorrah, and parted the Red Sea - can rig a landslide election for his chosen one.

10. What I was thinking. What if G-d likes Catholic Biden better than Conman Drumf?

Always gets me people conceited enough to think they know G-d's thoughts.

I'm sure he did... well, at least when it comes to Melania...

9. "Prophet"?! More like "profit"!

I know that's a cheap shot, but the field was wide open.

Who the hell is this guy? Could he at least comb his hair before going on "Elijah Streams", whatever the hell that is?! These ranting preachers just get dumber by the day. I mean, I thought the crap on EWTN was cheesy, and then I see this...I don't know what to say except to ask, how do people find this in any way compelling or meaningful? I mean, they're just phoning it in. And this guy (French) runs "a ministry in Washington state that is 'nurtured through a powerful, prophetic gifting' " (quoted from Right Wing Watch). More like "powerful, prophetic grifting"! I guess I'm in the wrong racket!
