Can You Stop The Decline Of The United States of America Supremacy?

Jesus Is Coming And Everybody Wants To Rule The World

Why do American Christians pride themselves in believing that the United States is the greatest powerful nation ever? Why would  Americans be willing to do anything and everything to save their country including their Second Amendment? 








Is it really the greatest and the most powerful nation ever? If it is, to whose standard? Surely, it is not according to God standard. God revealed to King Nebuchadnezzar in (Daniel 2:37) "that he was the king of kings." God of heaven has given kingship, power, might, and glory to him! God has delivered into his care human beings, wild creatures, and birds in the sky—wherever they live—and has made him ruler of all of them. He was the gold head, (his empire). God revealed to him that all other kingdoms that arise after him would be inferior to his.  So, according to God where would be situated the United States of America in the king Nebuchadnezzar dream image? Believe it or not, the U.S.A. is located at the bottom of one of the leg (partly of iron and partly of clay). Then you ask, who is in the other leg? To find out, read my article titled, "United States Of America and Russia In Bible Prophecy."

Head of Gold


What made king Nebuchadnezzar so different from all other kings and rulers who succeeded him?  He was accountable to no one except to God. 

"O king, the Most High God gave Nebuchadnezzar your father a kingdom and majesty, glory and honor.  And because of the majesty that He (God) gave him, all peoples, nations, and languages trembled and feared before him. Whomever he wished, he executed; whomever he wished, he kept alive; whomever he wished, he set up; and whomever he wished, he put down," Daniel 5:18-19.




All others rulers and man of states that followed were accountable to a royal statute, a firm decree, a constitution or a charter of rights of some kind. Remember king Darius of chapter 6 in the book of Daniel; the written law that he decreed caused Daniel to be thrown into the lion's den.  King Darius was unable to recede. As of today, all rulers are accountable to an institution or an establishment.  Take notice Christians,  you can make a difference by being an active force in the political arena in your country.  In this commentary, I will show that you can respectfully participate by using the tool of a Constitution of your nation. Actually, it is your duty.  Pay attention to what God teaches you[1].
First and foremost you must be a good citizen. 

"Let every soul be subject to the governing authorities. For there is no authority except from God, and the authorities that exist are appointed by God," Romans 13:1

"Remind them to be subject to rulers and authorities, to obey, to be ready for every good work," Titus 3:1

Why? "Because authorities and powers having been made subject to Jesus," 1 Peter 3:22, and "you are complete in Him, who is the head of all principality and power," Colossians 2:10.


If these verses did not convince you, maybe this complete teaching from Paul will:

"Let every soul be subject to the governing authorities. For there is no authority except from God, and the authorities that exist are appointed by God.  Therefore, whoever resists the authority resists the ordinance of God, and those who resist will bring judgment on themselves.  For rulers are not a terror to good works, but to evil. Do you want to be unafraid of the authority? Do what is good, and you will have praise from the same.  For he is God’s minister to you for good. But if you do evil, be afraid; for he does not bear the sword in vain; for he is God’s minister, an avenger to execute wrath on him who practices evil.  Therefore you must be subject, not only because of wrath but also for conscience’ sake.  For because of this you also pay taxes, for they are God’s ministers attending continually to this very thing.  Render therefore to all their due: taxes to whom taxes are due, customs to whom customs, fear to whom fear, honor to whom honor," Romans 13:1-7.




Americans, is God in business to save your country? Or is He in business to save souls and to fulfill His prophetic agenda using all Gentile nations, and especially the non-gentile nation of Israel.



The United States of America is a republic. In a republic, the executive legitimized by both a constitution and by popular suffrage.[2] Suffrage means the right to vote gained through the democratic process.  



Whether nations are a republic, a monarch, or governed by a dictator, God's will prevail:
"The Lord brings the counsel of the nations to nothing;He makes the plans of the peoples of no effect," Psalm 33:10.


The nation is blessed when majorities of individuals live according to God's standard. The problem arises when each citizen lives to their own standard, and that is what the movies and marketing industries are promoting: "Do what you want to do, be whatever you chose to be". Everybody wants to rule the world according to his or her standard.  They all want their rights and the Chater of Rights guarantee just that. 


“In those days there was no king in Israel; everyone did what was right in his own eyes,” Judges 17:6

Christians are not any better.  Divided we are, with each denomination personalized Statement of Belief that most individuals are not aware of. Even individual Christian has its own set of belief. 
“For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine, but according to their own desires, because they have itching ears, they will heap up for themselves teachers,” 2 Timothy 4:3 

Did you ever consider that God might appoint a dictator to rule over people because they are difficult people to govern?  Here is an example in Isaiah 19:2-4.  

“I will stir up Egyptian against Egyptian—brother will fight against brother, neighbor against neighbor, city against city, kingdom against kingdom. (That sound like a civil war isn't?) The Egyptians will lose heart, and I will bring their plans to nothing; they will consult the idols and the spirits of the dead, the mediums and the spiritists. I will hand the Egyptians over to the power of a cruel master, and a fierce king will rule over them,” declares the Lord, the Lord Almighty.”

Does this describe the condition in most countries, secular against secular, since they all desire to be free to live up to their own personal standard?  This is a fact: as people get further away from God's law, more civil laws are implemented. People make their own choices.  Separation of Church and State was God's will. It is a test. Each Christian is responsible to live by faith, not by sight and to teach God's values to their children. The Church is responsible to prepare the duty of a parent to teach their children. It is not the responsibility of the government. Religion starts in the heart of the parent and set the example.

Individuals must have a free choice. 

"Blessed is the nation whose God is the Lord, The people He has chosen as His own inheritance" Psalm 33:12.

Christians don’t live by God’s laws, they don’t teach their children about Him in their homes, they don’t offer public prayers in His name, and the holy days we observe are no longer tributes to Him. We don’t thank Him for the blessings we receive and we don’t turn to Him when we’re in need.

Even Satan has to deal with man sinful nature. I can guaranty you that he is not as merciful as our Lord Jesus.  It is people choices to be a Christian. Christianity starts by believing and accepting Jesus as Lord and then make the decision to follow His lead in our life. The seculars are right, you cannot force your religious belief down their throat and this is why.

Self-centredness is also a choice in the Bill of Rights.  Consequently, people neglect the care of the widows, the orphans, the sick and the destitute.  In the Western nations, the government stepped in with many socialist programs to take care of those in need.  The consequence is the taxes increase. Health care is nationalized all is good if agreed to pay taxes to ensure that all citizens may have access to hospital care. Read Isaiah 58 and see what God thought of Israel who neglected the weak one of their society.  Most secular American don't want to pay taxes for the care of the needy, that is a sign that the heart of man draws cool and indifferent. Humanism attracts socialism. Socialism creates more dependence toward the government to a point that it has become a human right. Thereafter, who needs God?
 

The danger in allowing government caring for human needs such in social assistance programs encourage many to become more and more dependent on the government as a way of life.  The economy suffers, unemployment increases, therefore more end up depending on the government. People favoured leaders that will not take those services away but rather give more.



Professor Alexander Fraser Tytler,[3] nearly two centuries ago, while the thirteen original states were still colonies of Great Britain wrote: 

"Democracy cannot exist as a permanent form of government.  It can only exist until the voters discover they can vote themselves largesse out of the public treasure.  From that moment on, the majority always votes for the candidate promising the most benefit from the public treasury, with the result that democracy always collapses over a loose fiscal policy, always to be followed by a dictatorship, and then a monarchy." 


Please watch: Define social justice? https://youtu.be/rtBvQj2k6xo


With the freedom to live according to individual standard, the heart ever draws colder and iniquity increases.[4] There is no fear of God, therefore sins are viewed as a behaviour choice.  But is it (Luke 6:43)? The Freedom of Rights in the American constitution and the Canadian Charter of Rights gives the freedom to sin evermore, freely and in abundance.[5]



With time, the government increases control in various aspects of the political agenda in our society. It is done so, to the point where God appoints a man who will enforce His will over them.   Just as His appointment of Justine Trudeau in Canada. Remember King Saul in (1 Samuel 9). The eyes and ears could be very deceiving, isn't?

God rules over ungodly people and its leaders. King Nebuchadnezzar learned this lesson in a very humble way as illustrated in Daniel Chapter 4. 



This is how King Nebuchadnezzar describes God sovereignty at the end of his lesson:
"And at the end of the time I, Nebuchadnezzar, lifted my eyes to heaven, and my understanding returned to me; and I blessed the Most High and praised and honored Him who lives forever:For His dominion is an everlasting dominion, And His kingdom is from generation to generation. All the inhabitants of the earth are reputed as nothing; He does according to His will in the army of heaven And among the inhabitants of the earth. No one can restrain His hand Or say to Him, “What have You done?” Daniel 4:34-35

King Nebuchadnezzar realized and admitted that the God of Israel is ruler over the kings of the earth, Rev 1:5. Even Napoleon Bonaparte realized the ruling Divinity of Jesus as God

"Alexander, Cæsar, Charlemagne, and myself founded empires. But on what did we rest the creations of our genius? Upon force. Jesus Christ alone founded his empire upon love; and, at this hour, millions of men would die for him."[6]

Napoleon had no idea why? It is a mystery for unbelievers. Jesus conquers death, systematically conquered the fear of death, (John 11:25-26).
"Inasmuch then as the children have partaken of flesh and blood, He Himself likewise shared in the same, that through death He might destroy him who had the power of death, that is, the devil,  and release those who through fear of death were all their lifetime subject to bondage," Hebrews 2:14-15
God has a plan for the gentile nations. He shared His plan with Daniel and many other prophets. What about us Christians? 

"that you also aspire to lead a quiet life, to mind your own business, and to work with your own hands, as we commanded you," 1 Thessalonians 4:11


"But seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things shall be added to you," Matthew 6:33.


"be ready to give a defense to everyone who asks you a reason for the hope that is in you, with meekness and fear," 1 Peter 3:15b

Our Blessed Hope


Christ resurrected is the gospel. Our resurrection is our hope. To receive the resurrection of an incorruptible body for eternity is easy. Believe that Jesus is Christ, the Son of God, who paid for our sins. We must repent, which is admitting that we are sinners.  


If you are a government employee, follow the example of Daniel by doing your job implementing the law of the land.  In addition, follow the example of Daniel's three friends; take the heat when the law of the land is in conflict with God's law.  Remember, you are light on the lampstand, the salt of the earth (THE TRUTH).

"Do all things without complaining and disputing, that you may become blameless and harmless, children of God without fault in the midst of a crooked and perverse generation, among whom you shine as lights in the world," Philippians 2:14-15.


It is your right in the Secular nation such as the United States of America Canada to live according to God moral and ethic standard. Defend it. Are we to spend our time, energy and financial resources to protect our Christians rights?  Are we t0 spend our time, energy and financial resources at pointing at our national sins? Are we not to be a light in our nations by living according to God's word?  Making disciple is what Christians are to do. Please take the time to review this video before going any further. http://youtu.be/BCChQht6eIg [7]


Our business is not to lobby our government, to initiate a marching protest. We live in a society who is as much Romans as it was in the first century BC.  

Abortion is murder, yet it is a choice for Christians to keep away from, (Proverbs 13:14 and Proverbs 18:21).  Homosexuality is a choice, a sinful lifestyle that God allows, (Romans 1:24): "Therefore God also gave them up to uncleanness, in the lusts of their hearts, to dishonour their bodies among themselves," and read the rest.  It is peoples choice to choose.



Yet it is your right protected by the Charter of Rights and the Bill of Rights to regain control over your parental sovereignty over your children by disallowing the government to dictate what to be taught in our school.


“True and pure diversity in a multicultural society is to allow each parent to teach their children their religious belief, their values according to their culture and tradition, and to teach their sexual moral standard and behaviour without prejudice and without interference from any level of government"

Our business is to remind each other the ways in Christ, (1 Corinthians 4:17, Galatians 6:6, 2 Timothy 2:2, 1 John 2:27).  Our business is to be inasmuch a prophet as were the Old Testament prophets.  We testify God's word to the official of your government. 


In 2005, I wrote a letter to Right Hon. Prime Minister Paul Martin. A law to legalize same-sex marriage was about to be presented in the House Of Common. A free vote was given to each member of parliament. The Liberal was in minority but combine with the New Democratic Party votes it was guaranteed that same-sex marriage would become legal in Canada. I warned that him alone would be accountable to God for legalizing same-sex marriage. Same-sex marriage was endorsed; consequently, the Liberal party was defeated in the next election. Only eight representatives of the party were elected in the Federal election... go figure! 


Homosexual have the right to marry in Canada, the population of Canada has not been held responsible and accountable for it. The members of the Conservative Party voted against same-sex marriage and became in power. Was that the result of the letter I wrote?   Only God knows.  Jesus Our Lord and King rule in Canada.  If you are interested to receive a copy of the letter, please email me at andre@simplicityinthegospel.com

Canadians elected again a Liberal party under the leadership of  Hon. Justin Trudeau. Actually, it was God's doing. God chose a leader according to their desire according to their own hearth. Cannabis is now legal, anti-Islamicphobia legislation has been implemented into law, the parent had lost parenting responsibilities, the schools teach moral and ethical sexual behaviour that goes against Christian faith, multi-gender ID has been protected by law, and Euthanasia & Assisted Suicide in Canada is being forced on doctors. That is reflecting the moral condition of the nation Canada and of the weak spiritual condition of the Church, The Most Lukewarm Church in the Whole Western Nations, since we have a Charter of Rights and Freedom yet we Christian are divided and have our head buried in the sand.  Are we not to follow the example of Nathan the prophet sent to King David?


50 Years Later
United States of America has been in decline ever since the U.S. Supreme Court finds religious instruction in public schools a violation of the establishment clause and therefore unconstitutional.[8]


The Court is not at fault but the American Christian parents are by not teaching God's word to their children at home where it should be first.  On the other hand, are Christians caught up in the care of this world, the care of their nation statue?  Ask yourself this question and keep the answer to yourself:  How many souls have you reached out to and how many have received salvation as a result?  For my part, I can answer "Not enough". 




Where is America now? ... a temporary retrieve through the leadership of President Trump? The United States of America is not the gold head on King Nebuchadnezzar dream image.  The U.S.A. is weak, fragile, and presumptuous to believe that it will be the status quo in the world scene. Remember the Berlin Wall? The U.S.S.R. collapsed overnight on Dec 26, 1991. It even took President Bush by surprise. Can you stop the rain from falling? Can you stop God's prophetic event through His nation Israel to be fulfilled? 

LET THY KINGDOM COME

In Conclusion 

Jesus said:
" Did you not know that I must be about My Father’s business?”" Luke 2:49

"But Jesus answered them, “My Father has been working until now, and I have been working,” John 5:17.

God is very specific. He is telling you, "HANDS OFF, MIND YOUR OWN BUSINESS, LET HIM RULE THE WORLD, YOUR NATION, AND ESPECIALLY OVER YOUR LEADERS".



MENE, MENE, TEKEL, UPHARSIN

Until then, “Thus says the Lord of hosts:
"Execute true justice,Show mercy and compassion Everyone to his brother. Do not oppress the widow or the fatherless, The alien or the poor. Let none of you plan evil in his heart Against his brother." Zechariah 7:9-10 
“Is a lamp brought to be put under a basket or under a bed? Is it not to be set on a lampstand?" Mark 4:21
“You are the light of the world. A city that is set on a hill cannot be hidden," Matthew 5:14
"that you may become blameless and harmless, children of God without fault in the midst of a crooked and perverse generation, among whom you shine as lights in the world,"  Philippians 2:15

Aren't we the defender of the weak,  the orphans, the widows, the fatherless, the poor, and the oppressed?  

Aren't we God-appointed 'Defender of the Faith’ and ‘Guardian of The Constitution’ which was founded upon the principles that recognize the supremacy of God and the rule of law. (https://www.simplicityinthegospel.com/2019/07/the-canadian-federal-autocratic-snare.html)


Aren't we (the Church) light on the lampstand,
 "Then I turned to see the voice that spoke with me. And having turned I saw seven golden lampstands," Revelation 1:12

What's Good For The Goose Is Good For The Gander ... What's God quoted to Judah is also valid to American and Canadian Christians:

“But they refused to heed, shrugged their shoulders, and stopped their ears so that they could not hear. Yes, they made their hearts like flint, refusing to hear the law and the words, which the Lord of hosts had sent by His Spirit through the former prophets. Thus great wrath came from the Lord of hosts. Therefore it happened, that just as He proclaimed and they would not hear, so they called out and I would not listen,” says the Lord of hosts. “But I scattered them with a whirlwind among all the nations which they had not known. Thus the land became desolate after them, so that no one passed through or returned; for they made the pleasant land desolate.” Zechariah 7:11-14
It happened. History shows that the people of Israel and Judah suffered dearly the consequences for their sins. God made an example of Israel so that, a nation, and we, as individuals should listen to God’s instructions. If not, we will experience the same consequences.

Judgement due start in the House of God
"For the time has come for judgment to begin at the house of God; and if it begins with us first, what will be the end of those who do not obey the gospel of God?" 1 Peter 4:17 




Let us pray... "Thy Kingdom Come, Amen".

c u @ d rapture soon...
