This is a global turning away. France is now mostly Islamic, Britain as well. Europe in general is a shambles. Here in Oz, we as parents cannot challenge genital mutilation of our children. The world is terminal, YAH told us so. Get ready!

Yes it has! Great point! But Roe v Wade being overturned was a step in the right direction. I believe all the exposure is to force people to realize we aren't being rescued by anyone but OURSELVES!

That's been our problem all along. Going our own way while denying God the Creator and Sustainer, All our attempts to rescue and extract ourselves from our own self inflicted mess have nearly always sooner or later made things significantly worse. Aaaaaand here we are? Does it look like something we are miraculously going to escape from by ourselves as we plunge unrepentantly further into it? Even with Mr. WONDERFUL, DJT, at the helm?

Yes. Even now God’s judgement is being poured out. How? Paul tells us that He has turned them over to more sin. They are only storing up wrath upon wrath for the day of judgement. It is quite frankly terrifying and yet they don’t understand (Rom. 2:4).

“It is a terrifying thing to fall into the hands of the living God” (Heb. 10:31).

Jim, came across this Substack read from Winston Smith whom I follow as well. - "Woke Jesus" - https://escapingmasspsychosis.substack.com/p/woke-jesus

Kind of goes along with some of the points in your article and I thought perhaps you and your readers might like to read it. I will be linking it today as well @ https://nothingnewunderthesun2016.com/

Mathew Henry's Commentary on Rev 14:8

"The second angel follows the other, and proclaims the actual fall of Babylon. The preaching of the everlasting gospel had shaken the foundations of antichristianism in the world, and hastened its downfall. By Babylon is generally understood Rome, which was before called Sodom and Egypt, for wickedness and cruelty, and is now first called Babylon, for pride and idolatry.

Observe,

1. What God has fore-ordained and foretold shall be done as certainly as if it were done already.

2. The greatness of the papal Babylon will not be able to prevent her fall, but will make it more dreadful and remarkable.

3. The wickedness of Babylon, in corrupting, debauching, and intoxicating the nations round about her, will make her fall just and will declare the righteousness of God in her utter ruin"

I’m thinking exactly human moral freedom is the gift of God Freely available and therefore not important for humans who have no interest whatsoever in human freedom other than grasping more.

There was a time when America was not thought to be represented in prophecy, anywhere in the Scriptures. Now we know different.

Great summary Jim, appreciate your work.

While it seems that this slide into insanity and perversity has come quickly over the past 3-4 years, it has been set in place by the changes in 1972 to the American Psychiatric Association's Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, known as the DSM.

This Manual defines what is mad and what is sane.

For decades, the official Diagnostic Manual of Psychiatry listed homosexuality under the entry 'sexual deviations'. It was considered by the profession as a mental disease, but a revolution from within changed all that in 1972.

This revolution was a well coordinated conspiracy by a group of homosexuals to take control of the American Psychiatric Association and change the DSM.

The same kind of conspiracy is what is at the foundation of the rapid changes in politics around the world to support not only queers but every other kind of insanity.

The vast majority of people just want to live their lives and don't care what others do, as long as it does not bother them. They ignored these significant changes that happened way back then and they have ignored the changes that are happening now.

Our churches have failed us as they have undermined the truth of God with their simplistic teachings and unbiblical additions to God's word. They have exchanged the truth of God for a lie, and for this reason God has turned his back on them and will allow them to reap the fruit of their own ways.

Regarding the "every other kind of insanity," I have a short story to tell. I live in a rural, isolated area of Arizona's Sonoran Desert. For my last yearly physical I drove the 40 miles up to my PCP in Gila Bend. As I drove I glimpsed a particular barrel cactus along the side of the road and I thought about their nature. If a barrel cactus is transplanted one must be careful to replant it in the exact same orientation to the sun, otherwise it will twist itself back to it's original position when first germinated. So, I mentioned this to my PCP and said "for as dumb as these cacti are they are pretty smart, so what is all this craziness today about a boy becoming a girl, and girl a boy?" He said: "This is something on which we disagree." :-/. With all his education in science, biology and medicine, he has swallowed the Jim Jones Cool Aid. I had esteemed his good care but now he has lost my respect.

100% accurate, Martin. Thank you!

The rapid changes in politics around the world to support not only queers but every other kind of insanity."

And that's Rev 14:8, With that sexual imperialism, Babylon America has FULLY fallen.. And with the Mark of the Beast right on the heels of that verse.

It isn't the time of the end, it's the end of time.

Martin's avatar

Thanks Walt

I don't think Babylon America has FULLY fallen yet, but we are certainly seeing the harlot being unveiled for who she really is!

If you count up the dead in Revelations various seals, and trumpets and plagues it seems that about 90% of the worlds population will be killed before the return of Christ!!

We have a long 3.5 years of tribulation that has not even started, and there are many righteous people who also go through it. Rev 7:9-14, Rev 2:8-11

It is he who endures to the end that shall be saved. Matt 10:22

Hang in there, there is a long bumpy road ahead!!!

Has America Been "Given Over" by God? Absolutely. Irrevocably. "America, America, God [had] shed His grace on thee."

Thinking about what you are saying. I think that time has come many times in history. What we have is a miniscule minority that the majority have allowed to get out of hand. So is what we have hear actually the righteous not following scripture?

Proverbs 31:8-9 says “Speak up for those who cannot speak for themselves, for the rights of all who are destitute. Speak up and judge fairly; defend the rights of the poor and needy.”

Psalm 82:3-4 declares “Defend the weak and the fatherless; uphold the cause of the poor and the oppressed. Rescue the weak and the needy; deliver them from the hand of the wicked.”

Micah 6:8 “To act justly and to love mercy and to walk humbly with your God.

Someone further down in comments mentioned the border wall, which makes this interesting..

Ezekiel 22:30 states that God “looked for someone among them who would build up the wall and stand before me in the gap on behalf of the land so I would not have to destroy it, but I found no one.”

We see only one other time in history with such widespread rank perversity. And, that would be Sodom. But now we are looking at Lot's house being the entire world. Has that happened before? No.

Turning away from God brings consequences. Israel turned away from God and was destroyed and taken into captivity four times.

Rome is where we got our idea of a Republic. Certainly not a God worshipping society. However, when their decadence got the better of them and they forgot what a responsibility it was to be a free people, they were destroyed.

[Rome] forgot what a responsibility it was to be a free people

The U.S. Constitution was based on underlying, guiding principles. We say of someone who has principles, that they stand for somethings that can't be bargained with or compromised. But we see over this past decade or so, a swift erosion of the under girding principles--moral decay.

How many would be willing to lay down their lives for what America has become today? I dare say none.

Possibilities. Biden has allowed thousands, if not hundreds of thousands of military age men into the country. Someone on Substack has speculated they are UN troops waiting for orders. Then we have the terrorist angle. Quantico was almost breached. Then we have the ATF, FBI, etc., already arresting Americans and putting them in prisons worse than those in the third world.
