It is not against the Word of God to receive money that was originally taken from the people and is being rightfully returned. Scripture condemns waste and corruption (Proverbs 29:4) and calls for just stewardship of resources (Luke 16:10). If DOGE eliminates waste and redirects those funds back to the people instead of corrupt bureaucracies, that aligns with biblical principles of fairness and righteous leadership (Proverbs 11:1). This is not government charity—it’s restoring what was misused, much like the Jubilee principle in Leviticus 25:10. Rejecting it would not be a moral stand but an acceptance of waste and injustice. If you don't want your check, then I encourage you to donate it to a good cause that aligns with your beliefs.

The "if" is a big part of that equation. It wouldn't be the first time the devil tries to trick us into taking dirty blood money. We would have to assume that DOGE, a human organization is beyond reproach and sin, which we know no human is. Assuming all they go after is waste and abuse and are not corrupted with power, taking more than they should. Or perhaps their goal was never to be waste and abuse. Only God knows what is in people's hearts. And he said we are all sinful in our nature. "Absolute power corrupts absolutely". I do not trust anyone that holds so much power in their hand and wants to play god. Be it left or right. Poltics are the game of man, the only party I believe in and subject myself to is the party of God fearing Christians who put their trust in our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. Jesus warned us many times of people who use scripture to trick us. I in good faith cannot trust a group that chose to make a sinful harlot the leader of The White House Office of Faith. One who claims to be a Christian but speaks of watching porn with your spouse and talking about fetishes as a good thing during her sermons. Who gets on her knees to pretend to perform sexual acts in front of a live audience.

God fearing Christians who put their trust in our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. Who's to say Trump isn't? You yourself said yourself you can't know his heart. You would submit to men (the people you assume are God fearing Christians without knowing their hearts and admitting they are all sinners too.) Elon hasn't publicly said he accepted Jesus as His savior yet, but maybe he will. We all were lost once. Pray for him. No one is saying to trust anything but the Word. Beware people that use scripture to trick us indeed. My intention isn't "winning" this. I could be wrong in my perspective of it, and you could be right. Best either of us can do is pray about it. I appreciate your thoughts. Iron Sharpens Iron.

Listen to the signs brother, The 3 red cows are getting ready to be sacrificed as we speak, multiple instances of seas turnining read all over the world, the third Temple is being built in Israel. Does none of this sound familiar to you? Trump is starting wars with Greenland, Canada, Mexico, Afghanistan(again), Panama, Taking over Gaza and genociding even more natives or at the very least kicking them out of their homes with nowhere to go, Egypt does not want them, these are innocent civilians, not Hamas, Just to create a new empire with Golden Trump statues and dancing trannies(did you not see the video he posted on X about it?) Taking over Ukraine's resources, he is pro LGBT, and pro the killing of babies via abortion. He is no man of God. All the signs are there for anyone who is willing to open their eyes and see. I was blinded too by him, for over eight years. So I do not mean to insult your intelligence or your knowledge of the Bible. I mean to implore you to open your eyes and see what is plain to see. His masters are obvious and they hail from Israel. When Trump and Kamala got into a debate, instead of talking about the american people and how to make their lives better, they got into this bizzare competition to prove who loved Israel more. America first? doesn't sound like it.
