Is America in Bible Prophecy? Will God visit America in the future?

Some say no. Some say yes. What do you say?


Very revealing History about the 'religious' staunch of early America. Times have sure changed.

1610 Virginia Law Declared:
:”That no man speak impiously against the holy and blessed trinity or any of the Three Persons…upon pain of death. That no man blasphemes God’s Holy Name upon the pain of death….”

Colonial Origins pgs 315- 316 Articles, Laws and Orders, Divine, Politic and Martial for the Colony of Virginia (1610-1611).

In 1641 Massachusettes legal code also incorporated the commandments into its statutes. Significantly, the very first law in that State Code was based on the very first commandment declaring:

“If any man after legal conviction shall have or worship any other god but the Lord God, he shall be put to death. Deut. 13:6, 10; Deut. 17: 2, 6, Exodus 22:20.”

Select Charters, p 87,
“Massachusettes Body of Liberties”(1641)

Connecticut Law Code made the first commandment “HAVE NO OTHER GOD” its first civil law declaring:

“If any man after legal conviction shall have or worship any other god but the Lord God, he shall be put to death. Deut. 13:6, 10; Deut. 17: 2, 6, Exodus 22:20.”

Page 230, Capital Laws of Connecticut (1642)


In 1638, the Rhode Island government adopted
“all those perfect and most absolute laws of His (God’s)
Given us in His Holy Word of truth to be guided and judged thereby.”

In 1672, revised its laws and reaffirmed its civil adherence to the Laws established in the Scriptures declaring,
“The serious consideration of the necessity of establishment of wholesome laws for the regulating of each body politic hath inclined us mainly in obedience unto the great, Jehovah the Great Lawgiver”, Who hath been pleased to set down a divine platform not only of the moral but also of judicial laws suitable for the people of Israel, as laws and constitution suiting our state.”

1680 New Hampshire Idolatry Law that declared:
“Idolatry: It is enacted by ye Assembly and ye authority thereof, yet if any person having had the knowledge of the true God openly and manifestly have and worship any other god but the Lord God, he shall be put to death. Exodus 22:20, Deut. 13: 6 and 10”
Colonial Origins, pg. 6
“General Laws and Liberties of New Hampshire”(1680).

Select Charters, pg. 87,
“Massachusettes Body of Liberties”(1641)

A 1639 Body of Law of Connecticut similarly declared:
“If any person shall blaspheme the name of God the Father, son or Holy Ghost, with direct express, presumptious, or high-handed blasphemy, or shall curse in like manner, he shall be put to death.” Lev. 24: 15, 16.

The Code of 1650, pp. 28- 29.

Those same legal codes delineated their capital laws in a separate section, and following each capital law was given the Bible verse on which that law was based.

Even the Supreme Court of Indiana declared in 1974”

“Virtually all criminal laws are in one way or another the progeny of Judeo-Christian ethics. We have no intention to overrule the ten commandments.”
 
...then the Freemasons came and "spiked the punch bowl." Those statutes gave them the ammo they needed with the "put to death" thing.

When you say "visit," do you mean judgment?
 
It is under judgment now, just getting started from what I see. How much received is the question. Will the prayers of the righteous be enough to lessen it? God said He changes not (Malachi 3:6), so why would He not punish any land? Even Nineveh was eventually destroyed later.

Ecclesiastes 1:9 The thing that has been, it is that which shall be; and that which is done is that which shall be done: and there is no new thing under the sun.
Any powerful, conquering nation was nicknamed Babylon, which is why Peter used the term in reference to Rome (1 Peter 5:13). Does America fit the description listed in Jeremiah and its destruction in Revelation 18 (not to be confused with Mystery Babylon, which is a religious system)? Does it fit the descriptors of the second beast of Revelation? I say yes, but we shall see...
 
Good point. Will China have time to become the next Babylon? Or will the world become subject totally under the beast system?
 
China imitated America like a star struck teenager. She will be around longer than America. The whole world is already subject under the beast system. "The earth has been handed over to the wicked", and "the whole world is lying in the power of the wicked one, according to Scripture." Our freedoms as individuals are all relative or subjective to the powers that be, and constantly subject to 'change', I would say.
 
We are under judgment, no doubt. Our Father used DH's accident to wake me up to what was really going on in the world. The number of people posting visions and dream of the end times is on the upswing on the internet. Jesus told us to be watchful, but not to worry if we have placed Him as Lord over our lives.
 
Ahmadinejad tells U.N. most blame U.S. gov't for 9/11 Module body

UNITED NATIONS (Reuters) - Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad told the United Nations on Thursday most people believe the U.S. government was behind the attacks of September 11, 2001, prompting the U.S. and European delegations to leave the hall in protest.


Addressing the General Assembly, he said it was mostly U.S. government officials and statesmen who believed al Qaeda Islamist militants carried out the suicide hijacking attacks that brought down New York's World Trade Center -- less than 4 miles from where the Iranian president was speaking.


Another theory, he said, was "that some segments within the U.S. government orchestrated the attack to reverse the declining American economy, and its grips on the Middle East, in order to save the Zionist regime." Ahmadinejad usually refers to Israel as the "Zionist regime."


"The majority of the American people as well as most nations and politicians around the world agree with this view," Ahmadinejad told the 192-nation assembly, calling on the United Nations to establish "an independent fact-finding group" to look into the events of September 11.


As in past years, the U.S. delegation walked out during Ahmadinejad's speech. It was joined by all 27 European Union delegations and several other countries.


Mark Kornblau, spokesman for the U.S. mission to the United Nations, said Ahmadinejad chose "to spout vile conspiracy theories and anti-Semitic slurs that are as abhorrent and delusional as they are predictable."


White House spokesman Bill Burton said President Barack Obama thought the comments "utterly outrageous and offensive -- especially in the city where the 9/11 attacks occurred."


EU foreign policy chief Catherine Ashton said the remarks were "outrageous and unacceptable."


'COVERED UP'


Ahmadinejad said some evidence that could support alternative theories had been "covered up" -- passports located in the rubble and a video of an unknown individual who had been "involved in oil deals with some American officials."


As he had in past years, the Iranian president used the General Assembly podium to attack Iran's other archfoe, Israel, and to defend the right of his country to a nuclear program that Western powers fear is aimed at developing arms.


"This regime (Israel), which enjoys the absolute support of some Western countries, regularly threatens the countries in the region and continues publicly announced assassination of Palestinian figures and others, while Palestinian defenders ... are labeled as terrorists and anti-Semites," he said.


"All values, even the freedom of expression, in Europe and the United States are being sacrificed at the altar of Zionism," Ahmadinejad said.


The Iranian president previously raised doubts about the Holocaust of the Jews in World War Two and said Israel had no right to exist.


Tehran has been hit with four rounds of U.N. sanctions for refusing to halt its nuclear enrichment program. Obama earlier told the assembly the door to diplomacy was still open for Iran, but it needed to prove its atomic program is peaceful, as it says it is.


On Wednesday, foreign ministers from the five permanent U.N. Security Council members and Germany said they hoped for a negotiated solution to the standoff with Tehran.


Ahmadinejad criticized the Security Council for imposing sanctions on his country, saying the penalties were "destroying the remaining credibility" of the 15-nation body.
