>>> I love JD, he is a great and dedicated Pastor, but I think he goes overboard on naming just about every current event as a direct fulfillment of prophecy. Also, he (as do some other prophecy teachers) claims that because America is not directly mentioned in Bible prophecy, America must soon diminish into a second rate, third rate or fourth rate nothing country no longer a player on the international stage. This is nonsense; it could be argued that to fulfill Bible prophecy, God may use America as a catalyst for prophesied events and still not have to mention America directly in His Word, as we have seen God use America in the past in many ways. God surely used America to destroy and judge nazi Germany in WWII for their treatment of the Jews (Genesis 12:3 - And I will bless them that bless you, and curse him that curses you: and in you shall all families of the earth be blessed.), but in doing so, we dont see America mentioned in Genesis 12:3 directly as a country God used to do so. If you will notice, God used America to destroy Germany as a nazi power and punish Germany for the treatment of His people, Israel, the Jews. And then, used America to rebuild Germany and keep Germany under control and unable to start another war. God also used America as a strong allied force with the nation of Israel to bless them. Again; do you see America directly mentioned in Genesis 12:3? The Bible doesnt mention countries such as Canada, Great Britain, France, Switzerland or Australia, to name a few, that wield international influence and power; are they all going to become fourth rate nothing countries to fulfill Bible prophecy? I think the problem is that we Americans tend to think that we currently run the planet solo, and in the case of JD; God will have to more is less shut America down so we wont get in Gods way in the coming years. For all we know, God will maintain a very strong America, and use The United States as a vehicle of His will and plan in these last days more or less behind the Biblical scenes not directly referred to in scripture. This America has to go prophecy fad, and it is just that, a fad, has no basis in scripture. I believe that America has much to do for God in the coming years to fulfill Gods will and plan; THAT is why satan is attacking America. Pray for her! ...and for JD!
