The Judgement of the Lord

 I was reading Isaiah 47 today and couldn't help but think of the US. It was a Judgement against Babylon. Babylon was powerful and VERY wealthy. They were also very arrogant. God used them to punish Israel for whoring after other gods. Then, he Judged them. It made me think of the United States. I've often compared the US to Rome and believe that we have followed in Rome's footsteps at an accelerated pace. Yet, we also resemble Babylon in many ways. Israel as well. 

When this Nation was formed, we weren't building an empire. Many who helped in the writing of our Constitution were leery of getting involved in the politics of other Nations. Many of the founders warned against becoming involved with other Nations in international issues. Oh, that we had heeded their warnings. Once we started to expand toward Empire, the seeds of our Republic's fall were planted. As we grew in wealth and stature, we became more arrogant and slothful. We turned away from the One True God and made gods in our own images. We are now paying the price.

Have you noticed that the more we turn away from God, the more insane and evil this Nation becomes? Think about it. Many fight for the so-called right to murder the unborn in the womb, some up to the point of birth! These same people push for the normalization of the perversion that is the LGBTQ movement. Not only normalization, but they want to FORCE acceptance and approval! Not to be outdone, the 'transgender' insanity comes along. People advocating for the mutilation of children, after twisting their minds with this poison! Men cannot become women, nor can women become men! This is a FACT beyond dispute, yet many treat it as if it were true. More perversion and evil will come as those who wish to completely debauch children fight to have the age of consent lowered. 

Oh, and don't look to most of the churches for any help as they are as debauched as the World! They don't preach repentance. They don't preach against sin. They're too busy preaching that their god accepts you just as you are and doesn't require you to change. They preach that perversion is ok, you were made that way. They preach wealth and prosperity, not sin and repentance. They are of their father, the devil. Synagogues of Satan.

Yes, we are under God's Judgement, which will soon turn to Wrath. We will be destroyed, just as Israel, Babylon, and Rome were. The only way to change the course is to repent and cry out to God for Mercy. To pray that he would open the eyes of the people so that they would see their sins, turn to God and beg forgiveness. There is NO OTHER WAY. The Gospel is the ONLY way.
