TW: Religious Confusion in Canada

Parliament Hill, Ottawa, Canada

In its latest TW News & Prophecy E-Zine, the Living Church of God reported:

Religious confusion in Canada.

For three years, Muslim prayer services have taken place in a Toronto public school during school hours–catering to the student majority who are Muslim. Because of the press generated by the situation, an examination of Ottawa schools recently revealed that about a dozen other public schools also allow Muslim prayer services during the school day.

When questioned about the issue, school officials claimed, “As a public school board, we have a responsibility and an obligation to accommodate faith needs.” Yet at the same time, these school boards have banned recitation of the Lord’s Prayer because it “indoctrinates” children with one religious view. When religious leeway in public schools is granted to Muslims, but denied to Christians and Jews, this causes confusion. Still others are concerned because secularism is not being practiced, thus schools are failing to reinforce the notion that they are “godless shrines of learning” (National Post, July 5 and 12, 2011; Ottawa Sun, July 16, 2011).

Like the United States, Canada was founded on biblical principles. Yet, over the years the nation has drifted away from God. Today, the once-God-fearing Canadian society is giving greater privileges to unbiblical and pagan religions.

Long ago, God prophesied this would happen. “Has a nation changed its gods, which are not gods? But My people have changed their Glory for what does not profit…you have forsaken the Lord your God” (Jeremiah 2:11-19). “…Wash yourselves, make yourselves clean; put away the evil of your doings from before My eyes. Cease to do evil, learn to do good” (Isaiah 1:16-17). This is one more sign that the end of the age is approaching.

What is going on in Canada?

“Politically correct” hypocrisy seems to be occurring there, as it is in other places.

Despite having natural resources and many overseas international trading partners, because of its geographic location, its economic history, and what is recorded in biblical prophecy, Canada is tied in with the United States of America. Many of its leaders, like those in many other lands, are getting further and further away from biblical doctrines.

The Bible warns that a hypocritical nation will be eliminated in the end:

5 O Assyrian, the rod of mine anger, and the staff in their hand is mine indignation. 6 I will send him against an hypocritical nation (Isaiah 10:5-6, KJV).

And while the USA is likely to be the main target, to a great degree, Canada is expected to share the fate of the USA, which ultimately will not be good.

(Though the European Assyrian empire will temporarily cooperate with Muslims per Psalm 83 and Daniel 11:27) it will not itself be an Islamic empire–the King of the South will be–the Assyrian Beast empire will turn on Islam after defeating the USA as indicated by the sequence in Daniel 11:39-40.)
