Sorry Doug Giles.....you are looking at this moment in history all wrong. Things may be falling apart, but that is because God’s eternal plan is coming together. This article was full of condescending language and feelgoodisms. I don’t know who he was trying to convince, us or himself. The truth is, America is under judgement. You are not going to turn that around without the nation turning back to God, and that is NOT happening.....if anything our day to day rebellion to Him gets worse with each passing day. Look to Christ - it is the only way.

Very well put. I found his entire piece nonsense.

We’re at a crossroads. A flashpoint. None of us know how it will turn out but we’ll just have to look after ourselves and ours.

It is part of their overall agenda. To create a sense of ennui among us. They’ve succeeded. Nobody gives a rat’s a$$ anymore about the Feds except those on the dole.

AMEN! My eyes and my hope are in Jesus!

Psalms 118: 8-9
8 It is better to trust in the Lord than to put confidence in man.

9 It is better to trust in the Lord than to put confidence in princes.

I agree that America is under judgment.

◾Genesis 17:1-6 | God promised that Abraham would be a father of many nations, not just one.

◾Genesis 22:16-18 | God promised that those nations descended from Abraham would possess the gates (access points vital for trade, commerce and military purposes) of their enemies.

◾Genesis 26:3-5 | God promised that the populations of those nations would multiply to become as numerous “as the stars of heaven.”

◾Genesis 27:26-29 | God promised that those nations would become wealthy and would rule over other nations.

◾Genesis 28:13-14 | God promised that those nations would spread in all directions worldwide.

◾Genesis 35:10-11 | God promised specifically that these descendants would become “a nation and a company of nations.”

The USA and the Old British empire fit this criteria. IMHO we are Biblical Israel. The tiny nation in the middle east is Biblical Judah. Apply this theory to Bible prophesy and decide if this idea has merit. Hosea 5 is a good choice for a start.

Comments are welcome.

I read the whole article. He agrees with you. My take is he sees us as in the days of Saul at the current time. Where he and I disagree is that I see this one as unresolvable, and will end with the return of Christ. Ezekiel 38/39 is right around the corner. Frighteningly so, if you are no His.

I actually agree with you but also agree with the author’s assessment of where we are. It appears that unlike the author you and I know how bad it got for Israel from time to time. The Davidic example only goes so far. One may want to look at Israel’s time in Egypt and the time afterward.

One can see the current situation as either just another bad time where we find our way out, or a time where the Lord returns. I think we’re coming up on Ezekiel, Revelation, Matthew, etc. I.E. I think the time is near. We need to recognize the time of the season.
