“For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.” - Ephesians 6:12We ourselves will be the downfall of the American dream. It won’t be climate change, Communism, economic inequality, wars, or even AI. It will be because most of the country does not understand exactly what it is that made us “GREAT” in the first place……. Trust in the God of the Bible and belief in what Jesus Christ taught. Your post and comments clearly demonstrate and remind us of this. I also enjoyed reading your FR profile. Allow me to add a suggested book to those already mentioned here.
“The Altar of Pergamon” by Johnathon Cahn
It tells of the unseen forces at work and moving behind the events of the modern world. Cahn writes this thru a fiction story, but the historical facts and Biblical references are all true and accurate. It tells about the very real altar that was erected 2000 years ago in Turkey for who we know as “the devil”, and how was moved to Berlin in the 19th century by German archaeologists, who evidently had an easy time getting permission for its removal from the indifferent authorities of the Ottoman empire. It now sits in Berlin because Hitler believed it would bring him supernatural powers. The spiritual evil came along with it resulting in two world wars and the terror Hitler and then the spread of Communism. Remember the backdrop of Obama’s acceptance speech? It resembled a Greek Temple? But it actually was somewhat a recreation of the Alter of Pergamon.

Remember the backdrop of Biden’s Battle for the Soul of the Nation speech, which looked like actual Hell?
