Biblical Prophecy in Light of Current World Events

As we celebrate the birthday of the United States, the question of America’s place in Bible prophecy can be answered

Biblical Prophecy In Light of Current Events

Independence Day celebrations mark the birth of the United States of America, an experiment that has been very successful in many different ways. Many Christians say that the reason for America’s prosperity is due to their support for world evangelism. The United States has been the launch pad for worldwide missions, spreading the gospel to a needy world.
The other reason given for America’s success is that we have protected the Jewish state of Israel for the many years of its existence, keeping the Jewish people from total elimination by its enemies. These two reasons, at the least, have played a role in bringing the United States to where it is today; but where is the United States in Bible prophecy?

Jimmy’s Prophetic Prospective on the News
The question of America’s place in Bible prophecy does have an answer.

“Where is America in Bible prophecy?” That is the most asked question in any “Prophecy Question and Answer” time. I am always asked this question when I open up to inquiring people.

Once in a “Prophecy Question and Answer” time someone told me that they knew, so I asked “Where?”

They said, “Jerusalem.”

I asked them to explain, and they spelled out the word Jerusalem.

“J – e – r – U – S – A – l – e – m”, to which everybody laughed.

As I thought about the answer though, I believe that it is correct, the only place in Bible prophecy that I see the possibility of the mention of the United States or an illusion to the United States is in Zechariah 14:2.

Zechariah revealed that at the time of the end all of the armies of the world would gather at Jerusalem, under the leadership of Satan, Anti-Christ, and the False Prophet – there to confront Jesus Christ on His return to the Mount of Olives from where He departed some 2,000 years ago. If America survives the 7 year Tribulation Period, their army would join the other armies of the world at Jerusalem.

America today is great because the backbone of this nation is made up of true, Bible believing, born-again Christians. When the Christians leave this world at the Rapture of the Church, which could happen at any moment, the most powerful nation in the world will most likely fall from it’s power base.

America’s spiritual decline, in the present, will result in a power decline in the future. Bible prophecy will be fulfilled.
