Have There Been Legitimate Christian Kings and Queens in Europe, Asia or Other Regions?

[Mr. M]

Observing the discussion of Christians and involvement in governmental affairs, this was the thought that came to me. Were Christian Kings and Queens who were ordained by Christian clerics throughout the last  1500 years legitimate? And why not? Are Christians not expected to confess Christ before world rulers? And if their testimony is received, should they serve as advisors? I am sure the Rev. B. Graham has his detractors, but did he not advise 6 presidents? Does that make him reprobate?

The concern seems directed towards being in the world and not of it, friends with the world, etc..None of that would be true if someone served their community directly in elected office with honor, and distinction. Seems like the testimony would be obviously positive. 

The Lord stated His concerns quite clearly. "You cannot serve God and mammon". This does not speak to civic affairs, it pertains to the love of money. Even more importantly, it now pertains directly to rejecting the mark of the beast, and coming "out of Babylon", in which getting out of debt would be a good move in the right direction.

I realize this thread is weaving two topics, maybe three, but they are all connected, in the same way that there are two or three companion threads just recently, and show the interconnections of these affairs. For example, why is the President risking a global recession to win a trade war with China? Because he thinks there is a switch he can throw to restart it. And what might that be? Inflaming a Middle East War would do the trick. Especially as Iran is drawn further into direct conflict with all their proxies neutralized. Has there been any rumblings towards that happening?

Was John the Baptist out of the Will of God when he condemned Herod the tetrarch for having his brother's wife? (Mt. 14)

[Mr. M]

Have you ever considered a likely outcome of the story of Esther? We know that a young Jewish lady became the Queen of Persia. The Biblical narrative ends with God using Queen Esther and her Uncle Mordecai to save the Jews across an entire real from Pakistan to Turkey from Annihilation.

But surely that is not where to story ends. A King takes a Queen to himself to make princes and princesses. These royals would be half Persian, half Jewish from the mother's side, or the Queen. So from a Jewish perspective, would they be Persian or Jew. 

The likelihood that there is a royal Jewish bloodline from Persia would be inevitable, as well as the need to keep their identity a tight secret, otherwise, the peril would be obvious. Not to mention if the Iranian regime even thought for a moment that this might be emerging, all Jews in Iran would be in peril. I could be placing them there by writing this, but no one reads me anyway.

So what does this call for??? The President of the United States should follow PM Netanyahu's lead and begin speaking directly to the Iranian people. Completely cut off all communications with that Islamic state and push HARD for regime change. Remind the people there of Daniel, and how beloved he remains among Persians, Jews, Christians, and even Arabs.

There are two or even three younger generations since the fall of the Shah. They want peace. They want freedom. If the US wants to use bunker buster bombs to wipe out the existential threat the region, fine. But please do not bomb Iranian cities, especially in regions where other ethnicities live under that region. 

The people of Elam are likely to have a royal lineage. There are other Biblical nations under this Iranian umbrella, and will only emerge after regime change, and a likely break-up of the country resulting.
