It's not that one wants America to be punished, but to whom much is given much is required. We've had the blessings of God and turned our nose up at Him. We've cursed Him in our media, We've molested and abused His innocent ones. We've been defiant before Him. Other nations have looked to us to set the example
Even the topic we are addressing in this forum re: Israel. At the conference of Evian, France in the late 1930's , 32 nations of asylum met to discuss what was the beginning of Hitlers war against the Jews. These nations discussed increasing their quotas of immigrants they would allow in. Everyone expected America, of all nations, to be benevolent. Remember the Emma Lazarus poem on the Statue of Liberty? But we would not increase quotas nor would we break diplomatic relations at that juncture with Germsny. There were only about 3 small nations who helped of the 32. How many lives might have been saved. The genocide had not yet started. But there came a day when they were trapped.
Again, you expect more from those whom the Lord has blessed! We kill our babies, our elderly, our parents because they wouldn't buy us our favorite tennis shoes. We complain about drug cartels but we buy it from them and sell it on the streets and destroy our own. I took a course in Ancient Rome and it was incredible how much our lifestyles mimicked them. We just haven't fed our people to the lions,....yet!
Dan 4:34 And at the end of the days I Nebuchadnezzar lifted up mine eyes unto heaven, and mine understanding returned unto me, and I blessed the most High, and I praised and honoured him that liveth for ever, whose dominion is an everlasting dominion, and his kingdom is from generation to generation:
Dan 4:35 And all the inhabitants of the earth are reputed as nothing: and he doeth according to his will in the army of heaven, and among the inhabitants of the earth: and none can stay his hand, or say unto him, What doest thou?
Rom 13:1 Let every soul be subject unto the higher powers. For there is no power but of God: the powers that be are ordained of God.
No power can rule unless God allows it.
I believe America has a dual purpose to start the separation process between those that love the truth and those who do not.
And to start the process that will change the course of the world causing them to establish a world that is not the operation of God but exalts people.
Which God is allowing so He can end sin on earth for He will not force them.
She allows the Gospel to be preached in the nation and the world.
Has somewhat of a moral base.
But she allows the pursuit of money, fleshy pleasures, and worldliness, that ensnares people.
She allows the occult to be practiced there even Satanism.
1Ti 4:1 Now the Spirit speaketh expressly, that in the latter times some shall depart from the faith, giving heed to seducing spirits, and doctrines of devils;
1Ti 4:2 Speaking lies in hypocrisy; having their conscience seared with a hot iron
2Ti 4:2 Preach the word; be instant in season, out of season; reprove, rebuke, exhort with all longsuffering and doctrine.
2Ti 4:3 For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine; but after their own lusts shall they heap to themselves teachers, having itching ears;
2Ti 4:4 And they shall turn away their ears from the truth, and shall be turned unto fables.
The new age agenda that interprets the Bible according to the occult and evolution, and people are going to evolve to be spiritual, and greater, and Jesus became an ascended master among others, and there is no personal God, but they honor the God of forces the power of nature, and the New Age Christ is the next world teacher.
The time will come that people will not want to hear the truth of the Bible but want to hear it according to the new age.
The new age is an American plan.
Dan 7:11 I beheld then because of the voice of the great words which the horn spake: I beheld even till the beast was slain, and his body destroyed, and given to the burning flame.
Dan 7:12 As concerning the rest of the beasts, they had their dominion taken away: yet their lives were prolonged for a season and time.
Daniel had a vision of 4 kingdoms, Babylon, Medo-Persia, Greece, and the Roman Empire.
The Roman Empire does not lose her dominion until Jesus puts down the world.
Babylon, Medo-Persia, and Greece will never have physical dominion again but their ways are still on earth.
Rev 18:2 And he cried mightily with a strong voice, saying, Babylon the great is fallen, is fallen, and is become the habitation of devils, and the hold of every foul spirit, and a cage of every unclean and hateful bird.
Rev 18:3 For all nations have drunk of the wine of the wrath of her fornication, and the kings of the earth have committed fornication with her, and the merchants of the earth are waxed rich through the abundance of her delicacies.
Rev 18:4 And I heard another voice from heaven, saying, Come out of her, my people, that ye be not partakers of her sins, and that ye receive not of her plagues.
Rev 18:5 For her sins have reached unto heaven, and God hath remembered her iniquities.
Rev 18:7 How much she hath glorified herself, and lived deliciously, so much torment and sorrow give her: for she saith in her heart, I sit a queen, and am no widow, and shall see no sorrow.
Rev 18:8 Therefore shall her plagues come in one day, death, and mourning, and famine; and she shall be utterly burned with fire: for strong is the Lord God who judgeth her.
Rev 18:9 And the kings of the earth, who have committed fornication and lived deliciously with her, shall bewail her, and lament for her, when they shall see the smoke of her burning,
Rev 18:10 Standing afar off for the fear of her torment, saying, Alas, alas, that great city Babylon, that mighty city! for in one hour is thy judgment come.
Some people believe America is not in the Bible but this is America.
Babylon will never have physical dominion again so this is Babylon in spirit.
Which America resurrected the Babylonian system which she represents the occult, human religion, the kingdom of man, which the new age and the beast kingdom are all about.
Which the new age agenda is an American plan and the key to why the beast system happens.
Which she lived deliciously and in pleasure and is a sinful nation loving the ways of the flesh.
She did trade with the world prospering the world.
Which the world trade center is in New York.
The religious system of Babylon was primarily polytheistic, involving the worship of numerous deities with the main God Murdok which king Nebuchadnezzar acknowledged the God of the Jews as the main God.
Which America allows all religions to be practiced there with the God of the Bible the main God.
The majority of the Jewish population lived in ancient Babylon.
It was the home to most of the world’s Jews even in the time of Christ.
Today, the largest population of Jewish people is found in the United States.
Babylon was the critical factor of the world's economy where today it is America.
The USA is the big promoter of international trade and promotes imports plus free trade.
Iraq plays no such role in the world economy.
These scriptures do not describe Iraq at the end time who is modern day Babylon.
It is America who has the Babylonian spirit for Babylon will never have physical dominion again which Iraq does not.
