…And Democratic Socialism Is Helping to Build It

Prophecy watchers know a new system of government is coming. We see signs that the system is already forming. Nothing says “one world system” and totalitarian government like today’s Democratic Socialism. This is the brand being marketed by Bernie Sanders, Zohran Mamdani, and Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez. They have legions of followers and like-minded radicals.

The Antichrist needs a one-world system, and Democratic Socialism is helping to build it today. It will be the governing system during the Tribulation, also called the “time of Jacob’s trouble” (Jer. 30:7). Many just call it Daniel’s 70th Week (Daniel 9:24-27).

The Antichrist Cannot Allow Capitalism

Democratic Socialism intends to replace capitalism. The Antichrist cannot allow free-market capitalism. He must control everything. And leftist lunatics, who think they are doing the world a favor with their form of government, are actually setting the stage for absolute evil.

A recent Gallup Poll revealed that two-thirds of Democrats view socialism positively. A new poll from CNN finds that a third of Democrats identify as Democratic Socialists. They are drawn to hot-button issues such as government-run healthcare, public housing, and higher corporate taxes. And a startling number of the under-age-35 generation prefer such a system. Today’s education system has glorified it!

It should alarm every freedom-loving American that at least one Democratic Socialist—the above-mentioned Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez— is a frontrunner for President of the United States in 2028.

Just Another Form of Marxism

Socialism is just another form of Marxism, as it divides people into classes and thrives on class warfare. It promotes the redistribution of wealth, but it is government that decides who gets what.

Both Dr. Mark Hitchcock and Dr. David Jeremiah have presented compelling messages warning of the growing threat of this system in America. Both suggest this could even lead to America’s demise as we know it, and that it is preparing the way for a Mr. Fix-It.

Bring Israel Down As Well

Democratic Socialists also despise the nation of Israel. They want to end all U.S. support of Israel, make Jerusalem the capital of a Palestinian state, and bring Israel down to defeat.

They favor immigrants and criminals, as they want to abolish all prisons! They would defund the Department of War. Their priority is the Green New Deal. But sadly, they are gaining strength in America every day, and their ideology of totalitarianism/Communism has killed over 100 million people in the last 120 years.

Democratic Socialists see this as a form of economic justice. The world is a zero-sum game split between the rich and oppressive one percent, whose wealth and success are driven by “unfettered capitalism.” They compare it to Roosevelt’s New Deal. Both FDR and Hoover’s economic policies prolonged the Great Depression—hardly a legacy we should aspire to emulate.

Is This Why America Is Absent from Bible Prophecy?

Clearly, if left unchecked, this philosophy and political system will lead to America’s downfall. Does this explain the absence of America from Bible prophecy? I think so. Elections do have consequences. Bible believers have a front-row seat to watch things form that were predicted long ago; however, this is a tough one to watch.

It is comforting to know that true believers escape that terrible time to come known as the Tribulation. But we are stuck here watching all sorts of end-time activity form, daily wondering how much more we have to witness.

Democratic Socialism is seeking a one-world system that is outlined in Revelation 13. It will have a single leader. Capitalism will be crushed. Believers will be gone.

What we see today is setting the stage for the ultimate global cabal.

Since I was old enough to understand it, I’ve believed, taught, and written about Dispensational Theology. I just call it “Left Behind Theology.” Critics say it is a modern invention that came along in the 1800s. Please, read the Bible. The prophetic angle of Dispensationalism represents one-third of the Bible.

Simple Definitions

Dispensationalism teaches a literal Antichrist, a literal “Time of Jacob’s Trouble” or Tribulation, a literal Rapture, a literal Second Coming, a literal thousand-year Millennium, and distinct roles for Israel and the church. Israel has a glorious future. God has made promises to her and will fulfill them, and the church has not replaced her.

A dispensation is the divine administration of a period of time–seven dispensations in God’s plan for humanity. God works in different ways with different people during different periods of time. Things were different pre-flood and post-flood. One could say there were different rules for different periods of time.

Since the 1970s, Hal Lindsey’s Late Great Planet Earth and the Left Behind book and film series by Tim LaHaye have been the face of Dispensationalism. Millions of people read and viewed these products and finally put a name to what they already believed just by reading the Bible.

The other option — Covenant Theology — does not see the promises to Israel as literal, but fulfilled in the church. It teaches Amillennialism, or we are in the Millennium now and have been since the cross.

Leave It to Tucker Carlson

But now this theology — since it represents the truth — is under brutal attack. And wouldn’t you know, Tucker Carlson has provided the platform to trash it. His guest, J.D. Hall, should be careful throwing stones.

According to “Ministry Watch,” Hall embezzled thousands of dollars from his church in Montana, was convicted of DUI, domestic abuse, and more. But he is Carlson’s spokesman to trash the truth for nearly two hours.

You can watch the painful ordeal here, but buckle up. Sadly, it has almost one million views on YouTube. Only conspiracies and lies can attain those numbers.

Christian Zionism Has Corrupted Christianity??

Hall denigrates Christian Zionism, as does Tucker Carlson, who insists “a lot of people have died because of Christian Zionism.” The program is titled, “Origins of Christian Zionism, How it Corrupted American Christianity and Why It Is Finally Collapsing.”

But think about the accusation: Christian Zionism has corrupted Christianity. That suggests standing by Israel has a cancerous effect.

Ray Fava, an under-30 online host and writer who loves to attack Dispensationalism, states, “J.D. Hall’s appearance on Tucker Carlson has shifted the conversation on Christian Zionism and Dispensationalism, as Hall has emerged as one of the best at articulating how Scripture disproves the premise of God’s chosen people not being the universal church.” He represents Covenant Theology as does J.D. Hall. The church is the new Israel.

Fava suggests that J.D. Hall and Carlson “destroyed Dispensationalism.” It would take much more than these fools to accomplish that. It is wounded as I acknowledge below.

Blame it All on Darby and the Scofield Bible!

It is no surprise that The Gospel Coalition writes an article titled “The Rise & Fall of Dispensationalism: How the Evangelical Battle Over the End Times Shaped a Nation.”

John Nelson Darby gets all the blame by them, as well as the Scofield Bible. Darby would be shocked to hear what he is being credited for today! But even Al Mohler takes a swing at Darby as he further describes Dispensationalism’s rise and fall.

The early church was Dispensational and premillennial. Sadly, the Reformers held on to the eschatology of Rome, and few got these issues right; thus, millions of church attendees are being misled in thousands of churches.

The Firewall

But it is true that Dispensationalism is bruised. That should be expected since it provides a theological firewall against the raging antisemitism exploding around the world.

Thankfully, God has raised up some modern spokesmen, theologians, authors, and more, who are pushing back. Some include the above-mentioned Hal Lindsey and Tim LaHaye, along with Dr. Mark Hitchcock, Dr. Ron Rhodes, Dr. Jeff Kinley, Gary Hamrick, Jack Hibbs, Amir Tsarfati, Terry James, Barry Stagner, Dr. Ed Hindson, Dr. Dave Reagan, Dr. Erwin Lutzer, Todd Hampson, Brandon Holthaus, Tom Hughes, and many more. The list is long, and I am leaving out many who should be included.

God knew we needed good theologians to share the truth today as we hurdle pell-mell into the very last days.

Replacing the Truth with Unsound Doctrine

Sadly, the 45-and-under evangelical has pretty much abandoned Israel and Dispensationalism. They more readily embrace Covenant Theology and even Anglicanism. Many embrace the Palestinian cause and have no clue that Yasser Arafat invented the people and Palestinianism.

They suggest writers like me represent “doom and gloom” and have misplaced loyalties that actually put Israel before Jesus! They say I am putting a damper on their future by suggesting the Rapture is imminent.

Leading to the Ultimate Abandonment

All of this is leading to the ultimate Israel abandonment spoken of in Zechariah 12:3, when Israel simply becomes the world’s “burdensome stone” and not the end-time marker and signal that time is running out and Jesus is coming soon.

Israel is the clock; Jerusalem is the minute hand; the Temple Mount is the second hand.
