For those of you who have read The Harbinger or The Paradigm you know the link between America and ancient Israel. America was founded by the Puritans after the pattern of Israel in the Bible. The Puritan John Winthrop said that if we follow God, “we shall be as ‘a city on a hill’ and shall be the most blessed of peoples.” But most people don’t realize that Winthrop followed that vision with a warning. If America should turn away from the God of its foundation, and to other gods, gods of lust and profit, then the same judgments that came on ancient Israel will come upon us.
It would be hard to find anyone in modern-day America who would admit to worshiping a false god; but modern America is filled with idols and false gods. And if we turn away from God, and we have, then we will find ourselves seduced by false gods, and we have, most notably the spirit of Baal. Baal is the principality that leads a nation that has once known God, away from God. Under the spirit of Baal, ancient Israel embraced sexual immorality, so have we. Under the Spirit of Baal, Israel embraced the confusion of gender, so have we. Under the Spirit of Baal, Israel killed its most innocent, its children, so have we, over 60 million of them.
When the battle over America’s future, a battle centered on the overturning of biblical morality, the killing of the unborn, and the acceptance of immorality, approached its climax in the presidential election of 2016, a sign appeared. It appeared in New York City, one month before the election. It was the sign of Baal. The arch of Baal, through which his worshipers passed to worship the deity, was erected in New York City.
Recently, the battle over the nation’s future again came to a furious climax, in the nomination of Brett Kavanaugh. As the battle approached its final phase, something happened. The day before the hearings over the accusations began, a sign appeared. It was the sign of Baal. – the same sign that appeared in New York City. The Arch of Baal was erected, now in Washington D.C. – on the Washington Mall – directly facing the Capitol building where the battle was being waged.
Even during the 2008 presidential election we can see the choice to use a symbol of Satan used for a symbol of America at the Democratic Convention. Obama took a trip to Berlin and saw the Altar of Zeus. The same alter that was moved from Pergamos to Berlin in the late 1800's right before World War I. And how do we know that this alter is the same one used to worship Satan in ancient times; because we are plainly told in God's Word. REV 2: 12-13 “And to the angel of the church in PERGAMOS write, ‘These things says He who has the sharp two-edged sword: “I know your works, and where you dwell, where SATAN'S THRONE is." America has been on a downward spiral for sometime and at breakneck speeds.
On January 22, New York Governor Cuomo passed the Reproductive Health Act that allows abortion up to the date of birth. And while this is atrocious, little has been heard about Vermont's proposed bill. Vermont’s goes all the way to creating an absolute right to an abortion, at any time in the pregnancy and for any reason, with no limitations as to method. Unlike New York’s new law and the Virginia legislation, there is nothing at all in the bill about distinguishing non-viability of the fetus from viability. There is no pretense of limiting late-term abortion to circumstances in which the life or health of the mother might be impacted. There is nothing mentioned about what to do with a born baby that survives abortion. It establishes a “fundamental right to abortion,” meaning an absolute right that cannot be infringed or restrained in any way. The bill has 91 co-sponsors. It could very well pass. If it does, I do believe it will become the most radical abortion legalization statute in the world.
We live in dramatic and momentous times – when a nation that once knew God is waging war against its own foundations. We live in the days of Baal. How shall we live? In the days of Baal, the people of God must live and move in the spirit and power of Elijah, bold, un-compromised, on fire, all out, advancing, and proclaiming the Word and ways of God. Let us set this in motion to resolve to do just that. And may God greatly bless you as you do!
