LCG: Why is Everything Going Wrong?

Dr. Meredith and I

The Presiding Evangelist of the Living Church of God has an article in the September-October 2010 edition of its Tomorrow’s World Magazine titled “Why is Everything Going Wrong at Once?”. Here is part of what it says:

Articles after articles now appear in magazines, newspapers and on the Internet, regarding the distrust of the United States government that increasing millions of Americans are feeling. There is a sense that America’s government is “out of control”—that something truly awful is happening—that the nation will never be the same again. Many analysts have described the “two Americas.” They analyze the division between different groups of people in the U.S.—and where this is leading. And a few analysts even note Jesus Christ’s inspired statement, A “house divided against itself will not stand” (Matthew 12:25). In our present circumstances, how long will America stand?

Our world is certainly changing! I remember when, driving from Los Angeles to East Texas back in the 1950s and early 1960s, my wife and I stopped over a couple of times to see the sights in Juarez, Mexico—right across from El Paso, Texas. Right across the Rio Grande, we found Juarez fascinating and heard of an interesting restaurant—with accompanying Mexican music—that was clean and offered excellent food. It was a very enjoyable place to visit, and we always had a good time and felt perfectly safe.

Flash forward—Today, Juarez is a virtual murder capital of the world! Scores of people are routinely slaughtered there by the Mexican drug cartels. This is right on the American border! And thousands of migrant workers are rushing across the border into America each month from this area. As increasing numbers settle illegally, some bringing families and having children in the U.S., we hear more and more about a soon-coming “reconquista“—the reconquest of the American Southwest by peoples of Mexican and Native American descent, who believe this part of America has been “theirs” all along!

Another huge problem now looming just ahead is the massive financial crisis, which is affecting not only the U.S., but also much of the rest of the world. Yet it will affect America more dramatically than most other countries—for the U.S. has become the world’s “biggest debtor”—and is printing money like crazy—creating trillions of dollars of “Monopoly money” backed up by essentially nothing! Other nations to whom America owes increasing hundreds of billions of dollars—especially China—are growing very concerned. They may at any time cut off their massive loans—which would bring down the dollar and the entire U.S. financial system almost overnight! As the eternal God tells us, “The borrower is servant to the lender” (Proverbs 22:7).

Long-time readers of Tomorrow’s World understand that the U.S., the British-descended nations, and the democratic nations of northwestern Europe (along with Judah, the modern state of Israel), are the modern descendants of ancient Israel. Ominously, the Bible foretells that if the descendants of ancient Israel turn aside from God and His laws, “The alien who is among you shall rise higher and higher above you, and you shall come down lower and lower. He shall lend to you, but you shall not lend to him; he shall be the head, and you shall be the tail. Moreover all these curses shall come upon you and pursue and overtake you, until you are destroyed, because you did not obey the voice of the Lord your God, to keep His commandments and His statutes which He commanded you” (Deuteronomy 28:43–45).

Truly, all over the world, America’s power and prestige are being “broken.” As we have noted many times, Scripture prophesies that if America turns away from God’s commandments and His statutes (Leviticus 26:15–16), He would let the nation experience “terror”—or “terrorism,” as it may be translated. Furthermore, as punishment for continued disobedience, God warns, “I will break the pride of your power; I will make your heavens like iron and your earth like bronze. And your strength shall be spent in vain; for your land shall not yield its produce, nor shall the trees of the land yield their fruit” (vv. 19–20)…

Our modern Western nations are increasingly disobedient against the laws and statutes of the Eternal God who made us and who gives us life and breath. Remember, the God of the Bible strictly commands, “Thou shalt not kill” (Exodus 20:13, KJV). That same God also commands, “You shall not lie with a male as with a woman. It is an abomination” (Leviticus 18:22). Yet today, because of the incessant onslaught of secular propaganda foisted upon them, millions of young people have been desensitized to right and wrong. They literally do not understand the difference between what the God of the Bible strictly commands and what “Hollywood” and its supporters promote. Their minds have been seared—so they do not grasp the enormity of sin, or what “sin” is even about…

Can we understand that more than 40 million young human beings have had their skulls crushed or their brains vacuumed out in the name of “reproductive rights”?

And now we behold the ludicrous spectacle of men “marrying” men! Such a perverted practice would have brought ridicule and total derision even a few decades ago. It would have been treated like the Pennsylvania farmer who literally came to a preacher with his donkey and asked the minister to “marry” him to his donkey! This was done, tongue-in-cheek, to show this farmer’s utter disgust at the idea that a few homosexuals were, even many years ago, discussing the idea of men “marrying” men. Yet, today, our “educators” and “leaders” often act as if such perverted practices are absolutely “normal.” And they are determined to make them seem “normal”—and will continue until the God of heaven intervenes and stops all of this by sending His Son back to this earth as King of kings!

Without national repentance the USA and its Anglo-descended allies are doomed. Many moral, social, economic, and military news items should give people reason to pause and consider that the destruction of these nations are at hand.

Most will try to rationalize and/or ignore what is happening. What about you?
