What would cause the USA to become totally Powerless against foreign enemies? THE RAPTURE
80% of Americans are Christian.......

Members of the 111th United States Congress
Protestant

54.7%
Catholic
30.1%


The top five religious affliliations in the 111th Congress were Roman Catholic (30.1%), Baptist (12.4%), Methodist (10.7%), Jewish (8.4%), and Presbyterian (8.1%).[1] Protestant denominations have held a large majority throughout congressional history, reflecting American's traditional demographics. In the 111th Congress, 54.7% of seats were held by members of Protestant denominations.


WHAT ABOUT EUROPE?

There has been a resurgence of the violent Neo-Nazi extremism in Germany

November 16, 2011

Police in Germany have uncovered a gang of extremists which is believed to be the tip of the iceberg in the existence of a brown shirt faction symbolic of Hitler's brown shirt police who stalked the streets of Germany after Hitler's ascension to power and his persecution of the jewish people.

For the first time since the reunification of East and West Germany, the nation faces large scale extremist right extremism according to the leading newspaper in Berlin.

Legislators in Germany have urged a ban on the radical national democratic party which is called a political arm of the Nazi scene and is behind the Nazi brown shirt faction now secretly at work to eliminate jewish people.

Is America in Bible Prophecy?

One thing that comes to mind in these contemporary times regarding the United States is its magnetic attraction to peoples around the world. This nation might be likened to the Planet Jupiter. It is huge in most of the ways human beings see as alluring, giving it the greatest gravity–materially speaking—of any nation state to grace earth’s surface. God has indeed blessed America "from sea to shining sea."


THE ANTICHRIST CANNOT COME TO POWER WITH THE USA'S CHRISTIAN MAJORITY, THEY HAVE TO BE GONE.....IF THE CHRISTIANS IN CONGRESS SAW THIS MAN COME TO POWER THE MILITARY,CIA WOULD HAVE HIM KILLED...

The people who will be left behind in the USA when the Antichrist comes to power, that is how the USA will finally become a Police State for the NEW WORLD ORDER.....

Our Government will be no more....

Bible prophecy does tell of a time in the future when two out of every three jewish people on the earth will be killed simply because they are Jewish, Zechariah 13:8. This future Holocaust will be the worst ever because Hitler's Holocaust only killed one third of the jewish people at that time. Satanic forces will endeavor to kill all jewish people during the coming time of Jacob's Trouble, Revelation 12:7-17.

The plan of Satan is to kill all jewish people, thus keeping God from fulfilling His promises to the Jewish people to make them a nation and give them a land forever.

Without genuine repentance of her people, America’s time as the apex nation of history will end. She will lose her golden glow. Her former glory will turn black with soot from the fire of judgment and wrath that will be the fate of all who come against Jesus Christ –the God of all creation.

America’s place in prophecy, without repentance before God, is seen in the Babylonian system of rebellion, as represented by the description of the destruction of its chief city.

“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. 18:8)

The Battle of Gog and Magog and speak of their invasion of Israel. Ezekiel says this will occur "in the latter years" (38:8) and "in the last days" (38:16). The invasion involves a coalition headed by "Gog of the land of Magog, the prince of Rosh, Meshech, and Tubal" (38:2).

Magog has been identified as ancient terminology for the area including modern day Russia, The Ukraine, and Kazakhstan.

[2] Ezekiel further identifies Magog as coming from "the remote parts of the north" (38:6).

Gog will lead the invasion of Israel, but Ezekiel 38:5,6 says that other nations will join with him. Persia (Iran), Ethiopia or Cush (Sudan), Put (Libya), Gomer and Beth-togarmah (Turkey).

[3] All the allies of Magog are reasonably well identified and they are all presently Muslim. Interestingly, such an alignment of nations is already configured on the world scene in our own day.


This would then prepare the way for the Revived Roman Empire (Western Europe) and the Antichrist to sign the covenant with Israel (Daniel 9:24­27).

Is too bad that God is a myth and the rapture is nothing more than a false hope, a mere story.

Also, to believe that 80% of Americans are Christian is asinine. 80% might claim to be Christian, in the same way that many closeted gays tell census workers, their job, families or church congregations that they're straight.

On second thought, I'd say 80% of Americans are just downright retarded. Maybe there's a correlation there.

THIS ARTICLE IS FROM 2004


Discussing recent developments in Europe, including attacks against synagogues and a growing hostility to Israel, The Jerusalem Report (Dec. 15, 2003) states: “For half a century, anti-Semitism was dormant, if not dead. But with jewish people being targeted in suicide bombings, synagogue torchings and violent attacks across the globe, the ancient ailment has resurfaced with a vengeance ... the ancient scourge of anti-Semitism (has been) unleashed, this time in a new and insidious mutation known as anti-Zionism.”

Daniel Pipes, director of the Middle East Forum, writes (National Jewish Post and Opinion, Jan. 7, 2004): “Unless Europeans find the strength forthrightly to address this problem — and all indicators suggest that is unlikely — there is reason to expect a general Jewish exodus from Europe, perhaps along the lines of the general Jewish exodus from Muslim countries a half century ago.”

2011

Some of Israel’s best friends in Europe, such as Germany and the Netherlands, are urging Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu to freeze construction across the Green Line as a way to bring the Palestinian Authority back to talks, western diplomatic officials told The Jerusalem Post Wednesday.

The idea, according to the officials, is for Israel to refrain “from provocative action” in order to pave the way for the Palestinians to accept the new Quartet proposals and get them back to the negotiating table

Not the Khazarian Ashkenazis. They are invaders.

According to God, it belongs to the descendants of Abraham - Sephardics, Mizrahi, Muslims and Christians - who lived peacefully in unwalled villages in Palestine when the Turkic invaders began to arrive from Europe to force them from their homeland.

Op, In Noah's day, who was taken and who was left behind? It was the unsaved who were "taken", right?

Mathew 24:

36 “But of that day and hour no one knows, not even the angels of heaven, nor the Son, but the Father alone. 37 For [y]the coming of the Son of Man will be just like the days of Noah. 38 For as in those days before the flood they were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, until the day that Noah entered the ark, 39 and they did not [z]understand until the flood came and took them all away; so will the coming of the Son of Man be. 40 Then there will be two men in the field; one [aa]will be taken and one [ab]will be left. 41 Two women will be grinding at the [ac]mill; one [ad]will be taken and one [ae]will be left.


What about Lot and his family? They were lead out of Sodom in an Exodus before it was destroyed, but wasn't it the unsaved who were "taken"?

Re: What would cause the USA to become totally Powerless against foreign enemies? THE RAPTURE
Enoch had to walk with God
Noah had to build an ark
Lot had to flee Sodom
Daniel had to be obedient
The 3 Hebrew boys had to be true to God
etc........


So with that being the case, the command given by God in the last days must be followed as well. Namely this:

"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."
Revelation 18:4

Action has to be taking on the believers part if you want to meet the Lord in the air. Faith without works is dead. You have to step out on faith and believe what God says. Just like Enoch did, just like Noah did, just like Lot did, just like Daniel did, etc.

Waiting around in "mystery babylon" for the rapture will only lead to your death. Bottom line. You have to flee America aka mystery babylon if you want to meet the Lord in the air.

"A prudent man foreseeth the evil, and hideth himself; but the simple pass on, and are punished.
" Proverbs 27:12

You can either be prudent and take action or you can be simple and be punished. God always gives us a choice to be obedient.


"Whoso despiseth the word shall be destroyed: but he that feareth the commandment shall be rewarded." Proverbs 13:13

Those who despise Gods command to flee will be destroyed, those who fear it and obey will be rewarded.


"Flee out of the midst of Babylon, and deliver every man his soul: be not cut off in her iniquity; for this is the time of the LORD'S vengeance; he will render unto her a recompence." Jeremiah 51:6

The call to flee Babylon is repeated 8 more times in the book of Jeremiah chapters 50 and 51. Over and over and over again God commands His people to flee Babylon before she is destroyed. The rapture will not come until after Babylon falls.


Revelation 14 gives believers the basic outline for major end-time events. You can either believe God or trust in your own wisdom.


"There is a way which seemeth right unto a man, but the end thereof are the ways of death."
Proverbs 14:12



The outline in Revelation 14 explains it all my friend.

A) 1st angel gives the gospel to the whole world. That is happening right now.

B) 2nd angel announces the fall of Babylon. That is the next MAJOR event that will happen in end-time prophecy.

C) 3rd angel announces the mark of the beast. That comes after the fall of Babylon.

D) The harvest comes. Let the wheat and the tares grow together and then the Lord will gather His wheat into His barn, but the chaff He will give to the everlasting flame. Amen.

The Three Angels


6Then I saw another angel flying in midair, and he had the eternal gospel to proclaim to those who live on the earth—to every nation, tribe, language and people. 7He said in a loud voice, “Fear God and give him glory, because the hour of his judgment has come. Worship him who made the heavens, the earth, the sea and the springs of water.”

8A second angel followed and said, “Fallen! Fallen is Babylon the Great, which made all the nations drink the maddening wine of her adulteries.”

9A third angel followed them and said in a loud voice: “If anyone worships the beast and his image and receives his mark on the forehead or on the hand, 10he, too, will drink of the wine of God’s fury, which has been poured full strength into the cup of his wrath. He will be tormented with burning sulfur in the presence of the holy angels and of the Lamb. 11And the smoke of their torment rises for ever and ever. There is no rest day or night for those who worship the beast and his image, or for anyone who receives the mark of his name.” 12This calls for patient endurance on the part of the saints who obey God’s commandments and remain faithful to Jesus.

13Then I heard a voice from heaven say, “Write: Blessed are the dead who die in the Lord from now on.”

“Yes,” says the Spirit, “they will rest from their labor, for their deeds will follow them.”

The Harvest of the Earth

14I looked, and there before me was a white cloud, and seated on the cloud was one “like a son of man”a with a crown of gold on his head and a sharp sickle in his hand. 15Then another angel came out of the temple and called in a loud voice to him who was sitting on the cloud, “Take your sickle and reap, because the time to reap has come, for the harvest of the earth is ripe.” 16So he who was seated on the cloud swung his sickle over the earth, and the earth was harvested.

17Another angel came out of the temple in heaven, and he too had a sharp sickle. 18Still another angel, who had charge of the fire, came from the altar and called in a loud voice to him who had the sharp sickle, “Take your sharp sickle and gather the clusters of grapes from the earth’s vine, because its grapes are ripe.” 19The angel swung his sickle on the earth, gathered its grapes and threw them into the great winepress of God’s wrath. 20They were trampled in the winepress outside the city, and blood flowed out of the press, rising as high as the horses’ bridles for a distance of 1,600 stadia.b





The word of God must be obeyed. God is working out a plan according to His will. The next MAJOR event that will happen in these last days is the fall of BABYLON. To avoid the soon coming plagues that will befall her, you have to flee from her so that you are not caught in the coming storm. According to the prophet Jeremiah We are approaching the last 2 calls to flee from Babylon.

Call #8:

"45My people, go ye out of the midst of her, and deliver ye every man his soul from the fierce anger of the LORD." Jeremiah 51:45


Call #9:

"50Ye that have escaped the sword, go away, stand not still: remember the LORD afar off, and let Jerusalem come into your mind." Jeremiah 51:50



God never leaves Himself without a witness, thus He gives us 2 signs that will accompany the fulfillment of these calls.


Sign #1: THE EARTHQUAKE



"30The mighty men of Babylon have forborn to fight, they have remained in their holds: their might hath failed; they became as women: they have burned her dwellingplaces; her bars are broken.

31One post shall run to meet another, and one messenger to meet another, to shew the king of Babylon that his city is taken at one end,

32And that the passages are stopped, and the reeds they have burned with fire, and the men of war are affrighted.

33For thus saith the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel; The daughter of Babylon is like a threshingfloor, it is time to thresh her: yet a little while, and the time of her harvest shall come."


Verse 30 contains the reason why the earthquake comes, namely SODOMITE behavior in the land. (men became as women)

Verse 31 is the earthquake. CITY TAKEN AT ONE END. That end is the New Madrid Fault earthquake. It will be be unleased before the elections next year. The Arch will fall in ST. Louis. When you see this sign, know that you must flee Babylon SOON! Like IMMEDIADETLY if you can. Because things will change drastically in the land before her harvest comes.


Verse 32 is how the people will react once the new madrid earthquake snaps. THE MEN OF WAR ARE AFFRIGHTED! looting, lawlessness, devestation, the whole 9. Fema camps will be opened, martial law declared, the end of Babylon nigh.

Verse 32 tells us that Babylon is like a threshing floor and the earthqauke begins the threshing. BUT WAIT: God says the end is not yet! Her harvest (total destruction) doesn't come until a little while later!


Sign #2: THE RUMOR



"46And lest your heart faint, and ye fear for the rumour that shall be heard in the land; a rumour shall both come one year (Y2K), and after that in another year shall come a rumour (2012), and violence in the land, ruler against ruler.
" Jeremiah 51:46


If we backtrack a little to call #8, we see that it precedes this sign.


"45My people, go ye out of the midst of her, and deliver ye every man his soul from the fierce anger of the LORD."
Jeremiah 51:45


If we study Line upon line, line upon line, precept upon precept, precept upon precept, here a little and there a little, we will come to a proper understanding of end-time prophecy. The call to flee, number 8, will accompany sign #2 which will be fulfilled next year. The rumor that is coming to the land is the 2012 rumor. The first rumor was y2k. So the fulfillment of Jeremiah 51:46 will happen next year. And as we can see at the end of the verse, VIOLENCE will come to the land when the year of the rumor is fulfilled.

The BOTTOM line is that you have to flee this country! Feet must be put to faith! The rapture will not come before Babylon Falls. The honest to God truth is that the deliverance for the REMNANT is contained in Revelation 12. The wilderness is where you have to get to. And Jesus Christ details how we get there.

"50Ye that have escaped the sword, go away, stand not still: remember the LORD afar off, and let Jerusalem come into your mind."
Jeremiah 51:50

The last call to flee Babylon is an instruction to go to Israel! You have to get to Israel if you want to be part of the deliverance of Revelation 12.

Jesus Christ gave SPECIFIC instructions for those who would be in Judea at the time of the end. Those instructions can be found in Matthew 24. After Babylon falls and you go to Israel, when you see the AOD happen you have to flee to the mountains because Ammon, Moab, and Edom escape out of the antichrist hand according to Daniel 11:41


"He shall enter also into the glorious land, and many countries shall be overthrown: but these shall escape out of his hand, even Edom, and Moab, and the chief of the children of Ammon."



That is why Jesus Christ told those who are living in Israel to escape toward the mountains. Edom, Moab, and Ammon are where the mountains are located. God marks out the pathway for the wilderness deliverance of Revelation 12.


I'll stop right here because i'll be writing for a while if I continue. May the word of God touch the hearts of those who have good soil for it to bear fruit.

Op, In Noah's day, who was taken and who was left behind? It was the unsaved who were "taken", right?

Mathew 24:

36 “But of that day and hour no one knows, not even the angels of heaven, nor the Son, but the Father alone. 37 For [y]the coming of the Son of Man will be just like the days of Noah. 38 For as in those days before the flood they were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, until the day that Noah entered the ark, 39 and they did not [z]understand until the flood came and took them all away; so will the coming of the Son of Man be. 40 Then there will be two men in the field; one [aa]will be taken and one [ab]will be left. 41 Two women will be grinding at the [ac]mill; one [ad]will be taken and one [ae]will be left.


What about Lot and his family? They were lead out of Sodom in an Exodus before it was destroyed, but wasn't it the unsaved who were "taken"?

They were taken *Out of the Way*

So it is a removal before the Wrath of GOD takes place....
