The Biblical God founded the United States for the purpose of sheading His light (Word) on the Gentile world. Because of her failure to continue on that heading she finds herself in Satan’s religious sewer. In an attempt to get her attention, God has sent periodic spiritual movements to various geographical areas. Each “move of the Spirit” caused thousands of people to experience changes in their spiritual lives. In come cases the changes were dramatic. Invariably each “awakening” was followed by a series of reactions. First, there would come an observable spiritual change in the lives of those involved. God would become, not everything, but the only thing on people’s minds. People by the thousands would “get religion.” Second, those who “got saved” became totally church-centered. Their daily lives revolved around the church–attending church and being involved in church activities. This came to be known as being “active in church.” Third, because of their emphasis on the church, church people would lose site of the Words of the Biblical God and instead become focused on their respective denomination’s doctrines and practices–the very condition the Lord had designed the “Great Awakening” to eliminate. And fourth, people would eventually settle back into religion-as-usual. As a child my denomination, which never got out of the “settled-in” mode, resorted to having spring and fall “revivals” in a vain attempt to “kindle the religious fire.” In later years I learned that the word “revive” means to bring back from the dead. Because the Lord had begun to open my eyes to Satan’s in-church shenanigans, I learned early on to check out church doctrine against God’s doctrine as found in His Holy Bible. “In the fullness of time” I answered God’s call to leave that “unclean thing” and follow Him (2 Cor. 6:14-18). After years of intense Bible study I came to understand how far from God’s Word so-called “Christianity” had wandered. It was at that point that I realized that He had commissioned me to tell those in the church who would listen how far they had wandered from His Truth.
Because the whole of Catholicism/Protestantism continues to be led by Satan’s false prophets, his parishioners continue to trod the path he laid out for them in the Garden of Eden. Though I teach God’s Truth almost every day via this website and my YouTube site, my “voice” normally falls on deaf ears. Such is the spiritual condition of professing Christendom today. A few people, however, are wakening up to the fact that religion as usual amounts to the dead leading the dead. Today there is talk of America receiving a “wake-up call” from on high, possibly leading to another “Great Awakening.” I doubt it. There is too much religious rhetoric being put forth for that to happen. We are being told that “God is on our side,” that we need to “Trust in God and He will take care of us,” etc. We hear that “the Bible is the answer” to the problem, or that “faith will see us through.” What we do not hear, not from the nation’s pulpits, nor from the Oval Office is the Truth as written in 2 Chronicles 7:14: “IF My people, who are called by My name will HUMBLE THEMSELVES and PRAY and SEEK MY FACE and TURN FROM THEIR WICKED WAYS, THEN (and only then) I will HEAR FROM HEAVEN, FORGIVE THEIR SINS and HEAL THEIR LAND.” Why do preachers and politicians refuse to quote the “humble themselves” part and the “turn from their wicked ways” part? Because it would be admitting that sin is the cause of the coronavirus pandemic, that God has sent it as punishment for the nation’s sins, and that the only way to rid ourselves of the pestilence and all future curses is to turn to Him and obey His Word. But that is impossible, what with Satan’s “I’m saved, born again and rapture-ready” lie that professing Christendom has embraced. Isaiah 28:2 states that sin separates man from God. AMERICA’S SINS HAVE SEPARATED HER FROM GOD. Therefore her individual and corporate prayers are not answered. As the passage quoted above points out, one must repent and turn from his sins, THEN (and only then) GOD WILL HEAR ONE’S PRAYERS.
Sin is sin, and the wages of sin is death. In 1 Corinthians 11:30 the Apostle Paul said that because of people’s sins “many are weak and sick among you, and many sleep (are dead).” “I am the Lord, I change not.” “Jesus Christ, the same yesterday, today and forever.” “… the Words that I (Jesus) have spoken will judge you on that (judgment) day.” The unchanging God has graphically laid out His Law of Sowing and Reaping. Those who “call themselves by My (God’s) name” refuse to accept the connection between man’s action and God’s reaction. I recently read where one false prophet said that God is not the God of punishment. My question is: then why did He repeatedly lie about it? Answer: He didn’t.
America needs a heart (mind) transplant. Her mind of Satan needs to be replaced by the “mind of Christ” which is available to those who wish to receive it (1 Cor. 2:16/ Phil. 2:5). Thinking like Christ would bring about the change the nation needs. This will not happen for several reasons: one, religious and political liberals will not allow it; two, conservatives are too proud to admit that they are wrong and have been wrong all along; three, the curse America is under will eventually pass and she will return to the religious mode that brought on the last curse. She will remain in that condition until the Lord sends the next curse. Eventually He will send “the big one”–the Great Tribulation which Jesus warned us about in Matthew 24:21: “For then will be great tribulation (for 2 1/2 years) such as has not been since the beginning of the world until this time, no, nor ever shall be.” Following the tribulation will come “the great and terrible Day (year) of the Lord” (Joel 2:11,21) which will make the Great Tribulation pale by comparison.
As Jesus said in Matthew 24:8, what we are experiencing now is merely “the beginning of sorrows.” The irony of this situation is that the most religiously alive nation on earth is in fact the most spiritually dead nation on earth. Americans literally carry the name of the God they claim to believe in their pockets, wallets and purses while the brag about defying Him with impunity. America is like a white-washed tomb–beautiful on the outside, dead on the inside (Mat. 23:27). I have literally wept for my beloved, once-great, God-blessed nation. In the past I yearned for her to come out of Satan’s church system (2 Cor. 6:17), turn from her wicked ways and obey God’s Word, thereby making Him her Lord and Master. But if history is our teacher, and it is, America is as a “dead man walking.” Her military defeat, slaughter and enslavement is just over the horizon. The rider on the red horse is preparing for his final devastating attack–World War III–which will make the first two seem like playground scuffles (Matthew 24:21).
Will there be another “Great Awakening” in the so-called Christian World? Possibly. But it will be no different from the formers awakenings. People will flock to church, only to hear the same deadly platitudes they have heard for 2000 years. Moments ago I heard a preacher tell his viewers to “Pray that God will help us find a cure for the virus.” If he had been ordained by God he would know that GOD SENT THE VIRUS. I believe that some do know, but value their paychecks more than the Truth. If there is another Great Revival, which has been prophesied, the one thing that will not be preached is the same thing preachers have failed to preach in the past when the four horsemen rose up for another ride–GOD’S TRUTH ABOUT WHO SENT THE CURSES AND WHY.
