Judgment Is Coming to America :: By Brian Lazewski

So then, does it surprise you that corruption is entrenched not only in political establishments, but social as well. The United States, I believe, is corrupted beyond repair. I really do not foresee any revival coming. In fact, I believe the near future will unleash further rounds of abominations that are normalized. What is next? Pedophilia? Bestiality? Of course, the masses will applaud and approve undoubtedly… “who, knowing the righteous judgment of God, that those who practice such things are deserving of death, not only do the same but also approve of those who practice them” (Romans 1:32).

There are a lot of fellow believers insisting God will spark a revival. Of course, that would be preferable. No doubt, all things are possible with God. Did He not send Jonah to Nineveh? But even the long-suffering of God has its limit and conclusion. We only need to look at the Great Flood to see just that. When the door of the ark was closed, that was it. All of those caught outside the ark were destroyed and damned to everlasting contempt. Let us consult our Bibles, shall we? Speaking of Noah, Jesus told us:

“But as the days of Noah were, so also will the coming of the Son of Man be. For as in the days before the flood, they were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, until the day that Noah entered the ark, and did not know until the flood came and took them all away, so also will the coming of the Son of Man be” (Matthew 24:37-39).

Just like the days of Noah… What were those days like exactly? “Then the Lord saw that the wickedness of man was great in the earth, and that every intent of the thoughts of his heart was only evil continually(Genesis 6:5). “Evil Continually” upon man’s heart. Ouch. Are we there in this present day? No, not quite. However, we are RAPIDLY progressing towards that day. Until then, God will send us warnings and raise up voices to call to repentance. He always has. This is a universal truth concerning all nations. As nations are concerned, God will judge them accordingly. Also take note… If God did not spare His people (ancient Israel and Judea) Judgment, He most assuredly will not spare us.

Let’s compare the laundry list of charges:

“You shall not worship the Lord your God in that way; for every abomination to the Lord which He hates they have done to their gods; for they burn even their sons and daughters in the fire to their gods” (Deuteronomy 12:31).

“And they built the high places of Baal which are in the Valley of the Son of Hinnom, to cause their sons and their daughters to pass through the fire to Molech, which I did not command them, nor did it come into My mind that they should do this abomination, to cause Judah to sin” (Jeremiah 32:35). Right, we see that sacrificing children is an “Abomination” to the LORD. We are guilty as charged to the tune of 60 million unborn babies sacrificed upon the altar of feminism. Considering we are a Nation of around 330 million, 60 million is a serious chunk. That is 10 times more than the number of Jewish people murdered in the holocaust. I also would bet WAY more than ancient Israel and Judea sacrificed.

“For this reason God gave them up to vile passions. For even their women exchanged the natural use for what is against nature. Likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of the woman, burned in their lust for one another, men with men committing what is shameful, and receiving in themselves the penalty of their error which was due” (Romans 1:26-27).

“as Sodom and Gomorrah, and the cities around them in a similar manner to these, having given themselves over to sexual immorality and gone after strange flesh, are set forth as an example, suffering the vengeance of eternal fire” (Jude 7).

“Flee sexual immorality. Every sin that a man does is outside the body, but he who commits sexual immorality sins against his own body” (1 Corinthians 6:18).

How often did we see the celebratory approval of homosexuality or transgenderism? So much so that one cannot turn on a TV (Idiot Tube) without having this thrown in your face. It’s all the time and everywhere in the mainstream. Worse, it’s celebrated. I refer you back to Romans 1:32. Thus, as a nation, we have embraced this as normal.

“But know this, that in the last days perilous times will come” (2 Timothy 3:1). Without a doubt I believe us to be in the last of the last days. If not quite there, then remarkably close.

“For men will be lovers of themselves, lovers of money, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy,” (2 Timothy 3:2). Check all those boxes. Of course, these are not new and unique to our present day. However, these are mainstream norms of the present day.

“unloving, unforgiving, slanderers, without self-control, brutal, despisers of good,” (2 Timothy 3:3). The last year had this on full display. The amount of hatred out there is seething with venom. From rioters burning, pillaging, beating elderly with baseball bats, and despising law and authority. Not to mention slander becoming a norm. Fake news, anyone?

“traitors, headstrong, haughty, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God,” (2 Timothy 3:4). Just look at the junk fed to our teens and young adults. The pleasures of life outweigh all. Our youth have become the “It’s all about me” generation, totally rejecting any form of guidance from their parents (or any authority), even to the point of betrayal.

“having a form of godliness but denying its power” (2 Timothy 3:5a). Just look how apostate the church has become. They much rather conform to the world than to God. Notice how they have a form of godliness, but in all actuality, they have no power. They are dead in their sins and don’t even know it. Sadly, this is most of mainstream Christianity.

Nelson’s Study notes word this well: A form of godliness is an outward appearance of reverence for God. Denying its power describes religious activity that is not connected to a living relationship with Jesus Christ. As time progresses, people would begin to participate in religious activities that are empty. Their activities have nothing to do with a true relationship with God or with individual faith in Jesus Christ. {Radmacher, E. D., Allen, R. B., & House, H. W. (1997). The Nelson Study Bible: New King James Version (2 Ti 3:5). Nashville: T. Nelson Publishers}.

It is this failing that is MOST disturbing. You may not know this, but we are amid a full-blown apostasy. There were some internal polls conducted by Lifeway on behalf of Ligonier ministries (State of Theology) last September where it cited: 22% of US Evangelicals believe in “gender fluidity” rather than that people have a God-given gender that is either male or female. Really now? That is Evangelicals who obviously have not opened their Bibles in years. Not to mention that when you filter the poll to all professed” Christians,” those percentages skyrocket.

Here is a link to the [State of Theology poll]. Go to the Data Explorer part and play around with the filters to look at the internals. I would say nearly 75% (Just a guess on practical experience) of professed “Christians” are apostates. It is getting worse as the years go by. To be sure, always, there has only ever been a true remnant. Just as the Lord said: “Enter by the narrow gate; for wide is the gate and broad is the way that leads to destruction, and there are many who go in by it. Because narrow is the gate and difficult is the way which leads to life, and there are few who find it” (Matthew 7:13-14).

Brethren, I believe God is giving our nation over to depravity. He removes His restraint and lets people have/do whatever they want. With a church that is compromised and lawlessness going out of control, it will not be long until we totally collapse as a nation. Just look at the next generation. I do not think any free society would last under the indoctrinated social policies they hold as values (Read Socialism). Freedom comes with one requirement. It is to do the right thing when nobody’s watching. Since we overall as a nation fail at that, we are not going to maintain freedom.

God is Love, to be sure. However, God is Holy and lawful. His Wrath is like a huge rubber band pulled back so far and ready to snap. I urge you all to be prepared and make sure you have oil in your lamps.

Make sure you are not a “Nominal Christian.” Test yourself to see if you are in the faith. “Examine yourselves as to whether you are in the faith. Test yourselves. Do you not know yourselves, that Jesus Christ is in you?—unless indeed you are disqualified” (2 Corinthians 13:5). If you fail this test, turn to Jesus Now! You are not dead yet!

There can be nothing more horrific than to hear this: “Not everyone who says to Me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ shall enter the kingdom of heaven, but he who does the will of My Father in heaven. Many will say to Me in that day, ‘Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in Your name, cast out demons in Your name, and done many wonders in Your name?’ And then I will declare to them, ‘I never knew you; depart from Me, you who practice lawlessness!’” (Matthew 7:21-23).

If you are Saved and struggling, repent and recommit to the Lord. “If we confess our sins, He is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness” (1 John 1:9).

If you are not saved and managed to endure my writing to this point {CLICK HERE}.For He says: ‘In an acceptable time I have heard you, And in the day of salvation I have helped you.’ Behold, now is the accepted time; behold, now is the day of salvation” (2 Corinthians 6:2).

Shalom,

Brian
