Then, he went further. He said if he had not told anyone a document was declassified it was declassified if he merely thought about it. That put an end to all the legal arguments about declassifying documents. . .

Brother Mayor, I have seen a lot of so-called "humorists" poking fun at Donald Trump because he stated that through thought alone he could declassify documents. Many of those cruel, Satan-inspired people compare him to "Dr. X" from comic book fame.
But the joke is on them because the superhero that Trump really resembles is none other than Our Lord, Jesus Christ, Himself.
In the Gospel of Matthew, a Roman Centurion-- a government official-- comes to Jesus and asks Him to heal his servant who is suffering from a pretty serious medical problem. The man is paralyzed. When Jesus hears of this need, he doesn't start filling out forms or asking from some official seal to stamp a document provided by the Roman Governor or the Jewish temple big-wigs*.
No. He tells the petitioning party that his request has been fulfilled. And as the Bible clarifies, Jesus said it and it was done.
Now, if Jesus could use remote healing to cure a man of something as serious as full body paralysis, how hard would it be for a man so blessed of The Lord to use his mind to alter the designated status of a couple of documents? Is that really so hard to believe when you think about it in such a way?
But don't take my word for it, go to God's Word instead.
Matthew 8:5-13.
And when Jesus was entered into Capernaum, there came unto him a centurion, beseeching him,
And saying, Lord, my servant lieth at home sick of the palsy, grievously tormented.
And Jesus saith unto him, I will come and heal him.
The centurion answered and said, Lord, I am not worthy that thou shouldest come under my roof: but speak the word only, and my servant shall be healed.
For I am a man under authority, having soldiers under me: and I say to this man, Go, and he goeth; and to another, Come, and he cometh; and to my servant, Do this, and he doeth it.
When Jesus heard it, he marvelled, and said to them that followed, Verily I say unto you, I have not found so great faith, no, not in Israel.
And I say unto you, That many shall come from the east and west, and shall sit down with Abraham, and Isaac, and Jacob, in the kingdom of heaven.
But the children of the kingdom shall be cast out into outer darkness: there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth.
And Jesus said unto the centurion, Go thy way; and as thou hast believed, so be it done unto thee. And his servant was healed in the selfsame hour.
It's kind of obvious that the real problem here isn't with what Trump did. It's with people's lack of faith.
We find even more proof of Great Faith = Thinking gets the job done in Chapter 7 of the Gospel of Luke. As this verse confirms:
Luke 7:10
And they that were sent, returning to the house, found the servant whole that had been sick.
I just don't know what more people need-- a signed affidavit? So much for faith. Trump deserves better than that.
* I could have sworn it was Jewish women who wore the big wigs, but what do I know? It's not in the Bible, so I tend to forget those sorts of details.
