Do you trust anything coming from government mouthpieces these days? I must say that I don’t. Every level of federal officialdom is observably steeped in Luciferian prevarication, so far as I am concerned.
There is simply nothing biblical about this grab for power and control by a government inebriated on the dollars it can print and spend almost by presidential fiat. If it truly were a biblically correct—rather than politically correct—effort, I would have no problem with it.
Now to look more deeply into the reason Christians shouldn’t support this or any such grab for control that ultimately will enslave.
Human governance, we must remember, is not God’s Idea. It is man’s idea—to do things apart from the Creator. We see this from history given in the Bible.
Adam’s first decision to disobey God and instead accept Lucifer’s way was rebellion against God’s governance, and it came to a crisis point when the whole world became filled with violence and was corrupted in every other way, producing total anarchy. The Flood provided a new beginning.
Then came the crisis on the plain of Shinar with Nimrod and the Tower of Babel. Again, God dealt with the crisis, and the whole human government was destroyed and the people scattered. Peleg and the peoples of earth were geographically redistributed, and all of the rest…
Israel was the next example. The chosen of God—the Jewish people—wanted human government, not God’s reign, over them. The Lord let them have Saul. He did that because He is a God who gave mankind volition. He wants His creation to love Him unconditionally; He doesn’t want robots engineered to adore Him.
Lying, humanistic government is again building to a supreme crisis point. It has always built to crises points. Every civilization, empire, etc., has come apart, dissolved, or been destroyed because of rebellion and determination to live apart from God.
This time, it is building like the Vesuvius of all rebellions. America is the apex nation of all nations, and is the head of this gargantuan boil that is filling with explosive corruption that will one day blow. All nations of the world have, through their link to the dollar, been tied inextricably to the US—the most materially blessed of all nations to have come to power upon the planet. Now America is the holdup to the New World Order the globalist minions want to create. They are doing all within their power, through the World Economic Forum and other one-world organizations, to destroy America as founded. Those within the American government at the highest levels are in cahoots with their New World Order cabalists, doing all they can to change America from its founding in order to turn it over to the likes of the World Economic Forum and other anti-God forces.
All of this corruption constitutes the Babylonian system, which Daniel and John prophesied in presenting the strange beast that comes up out of the sea in Revelation 1 and lumbers about in Daniel 7.
America is bound to Israel in a supernatural way, and it is all tied together by the incessant call for peace—not God’s peace, but humanistic peace. The result is going to be exactly as God gives it in Psalm 2, then the “kings of the earth” will achieve the “peace” they desire, as given in Isaiah 28:15 and 18.
Man will get his humanistic government; the ultimately “evolved” man will be earth’s master for a brief time, God letting man have his desire to do what is right in his own eyes.
This current bubble of humanistic effort to build utopia, which supposedly can be achieved through a drive for humanistic socialism (that’s the only kind of socialism there is), will explode when the Rapture occurs and the top is knocked off the boil. Only God’s staying hand has kept things from imploding—economic collapse, etc.
So, I am against man-made efforts in wanting to micromanage our lives. Such efforts comprise the grist for tyranny. You see where it’s going. It is nothing more or less than a luciferian grab for power—a voracious lust for control by his human agents and agencies.
God gave man, through the Bible, the formula for living life the way He intended. His Word says in effect that we should “let those who won’t work, not eat” (see 2 Thessalonians 3:10, 12). He gave us the way to take care of the widows, orphans, and the infirm—even the legitimately indigent. This is to be done through the largesse of God’s people, those who fully accept His way of governance. The Lord Jesus Christ is that only way. Man long ago decided to dispense with God’s prescription in dealing with matters of societal interaction. Burdensome, enslaving, lying government seeks power through promising deliverance from social ills it can never produce. What it will produce, however, we can see in Bible prophecy’s description of humanistic government’s final attempt to usurp the throne of God. (Read Revelation 13:16–18.)
This desperation for the United States of America to have biblical relevance is incomprehensible. There is only ONE nation which God focuses on and that is Israel, as is said Israel is God’s hour hand, Jerusalem is His minute hand and the Temple Mount is His second hand – there is no other nation on this planet which has any relevance apart from how it has treated Israel. After all ‘America’ as we know it today, did not even exist until the 18th century and, by that time, Jesus had died and been risen some 1700 years or so before.
This is exactly right, Chris.
One day the nations of the Earth will be judged based on how they treated Israel, which is what I think this passage indicates:
Matthew {25:31} When the Son of man shall come in his glory, and all the holy angels with him, then shall he sit upon the throne of his glory: {25:32} And before him shall be gathered all nations: and he shall separate them one from another, as a shepherd divideth [his] sheep from the goats: {25:33} And he shall set the sheep on his right hand, but the goats on the left. {25:34} Then shall the King say unto them on his right hand, Come, ye blessed of my Father, inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world:
From the book of Daniel:
Daniel {7:1} In the first year of Belshazzar king of Babylon Daniel had a dream and visions of his head upon his bed: then he wrote the dream, [and] told the sum of the matters. {7:2} Daniel spake and said, I saw in my vision by night, and, behold, the four winds of the heaven strove upon the
great sea. {7:3} And four great beasts came up from the sea, diverse one from another.
Notice how the four great empires in Daniel’s later visions, namely the Babylonian, Medo-Persian, Grecian, and Roman, are referred to as beasts? I do not think the choice of the word “beasts” is at all accidental.
Compared to the righteous government God will establish under Jesus during the Millennium, even the best of human governments are beastly in comparison. The United States probably had one of, if not, the best one of all, despite its imperfections.
Of course, this is true no longer as we have watched it descend into “Wokeness,” which embraces everything God opposes, such as the arbitrary killing of the unborn to promoting the most vile of perversions even upon its children, to the legalizing new forms of intoxicants.
Perhaps even the term “beast” is too kind!
