Is America Really in the Bible?

   In my previous blog-series, I tried to give a multitude of examples of all the different ways that we, American citizens, individually and collectively, have contributed to the total dismemberment of our God-fearing society as us "old-timers" remember it.  I also promised that in my next blog-series, I would present what I believe is credible evidence that God has seen enough, and that it's only a (short???) matter of time before He removes his protective hand that is shielding our beloved nation from His anger.

   I am truly concerned that the USA, and the world for that matter, is running out of time.

   We need to get right with God, and we need to do it soon!!  Like RIGHT NOW!!!  The way to get right with God is to first REPENT!  Repent means having true sorrow for the things we've done wrong, by commission and by omission, all our thoughts, all our deeds -- and THEN WORK HARD SO WE CAN TRY TO AVOID THOSE WRONG-DOINGS.  In other words, "I'm sorry God" all by itself isn't enough.  We have to act like we're sorry by striving really really hard not to do the stuff we've been doing.  Only then do we get true forgiveness, and only with God's forgiveness might we here on planet Earth get a chance to stay around a while longer!

   This blog-series will have a large number of individual posts because there is a lot to talk about.  Here is a partial listing of some of the subjects we'll be discussing:

                   America as "Mystery Babylon"
                   Economic Collapse
                   The role of Islam
                   Israel, Iran, Syria and the Rest of the Mid-East
                   European Union, United Nations, and Global "Regions"
                   One-World Government, New World Order -- all a "Conspiracy"?
                   Spread of Terrorism
                   American Alliances
                   Earthquakes in Diverse Places

   Again -- this list is only partial -- as things come to mind as I write this, I'm sure there will be more.  Neither is list necessarily in the order I will ultimately write about...   It will take a fair amount of planning and consideration so that I don't get all the various "carts in front of the horses"  Please bear with me as I work on this.                  

   Rather than trying to "re-invent the wheel", I will rely on a lot of quotes from sources that I believe are credible experts in Biblical prophecy.  As I indicated in my first blog-series, I've been doing my best to study this subject for the last 15 or so years, but that certainly doesn't make me an expert, because I have none of the linguistics and detailed knowledge in ancient Biblical texts, and all the different translations of those texts; so therefore, I'll be providing a lot of internet links and addresses so that the reader may go to those sources directly.

   As this blog-series develops, I will refer to my original series from time to time so that I can illustrate specifically which of our individual and national wrongs are specifically addressed in Bible prophecy.  Again, I will be using the New King James Version, unless specifically cited otherwise in the text.

  In the course of this blog-series, I will also do my best to correlate current events here in America, as well as a multitude of other places all over the Globe...   You cannot intelligently discuss Bible Prophecy without looking at the "big picture".  The Bible was written for all the world, not just our little corner of it.

   This is probably the most difficult writing task I've ever taken on -- One of my constant worries is that I have to stay true to what the Bible really says --- not what I think it says.  There are already way too many people who put their own spin on Bible passages.  There are way too many priests, ministers and supposedly educated Bible scholars who, I believe, mislead the masses, either by ignorance, accident, or design.

  I strongly encourage you --- not just encourage --- I, in fact, IMPLORE you:  please do your own Bible research!  Learn for yourselves what the Bible teaches.  To do that, one must pray for wisdom and discernment, and then believe that the Lord will give you that wisdom and discernment.  Don't rely on others to do your work!  We are all approaching troublesome days where the Bible tells us in no uncertain terms that there are liars and deceivers who would do everything they can to steer us away from God and His Truth.  That, I believe is totally honest fact!

   Once again, I invite the readers to leave comments on these posts as I publish them -- your comments tell me a bit about interest level, and what I can or should do to enhance the quality of these postings.  My intention is to make this info as plain as a sunny day so there's no confusion, no mystery -- this material is too important to leave people wondering and confused.  Only you can tell me if I've met that goal!

Thank you,
