Looking for a bigger picture understanding, I've come to believe that islam is the weapon being used against the "given over" wicked west, and that Ezekiel 28 speaks to this and to 9/11, as does Isaiah 9:10.

Our founding fathers recognized and acknowledged the Truth and set our nation's course under God's protection and guidance, but our laws now testify against US, that we are no longer that nation or that people.

We've cut ourselves loose and distanced ourselves from the Father and His Law to choose our own way instead in a fashion outlined in Romans 1:18-32. What did we think would happen?

I believe that when we passed Roe v Wade, the clock was officially against US, too, the same as it was with the rest of the Western nations.

And what's worse is that we've not only failed to correct our mistakes, but delighted in them and in our rebellion, instead.

We chose to stay the course and even elected the vile slick Willie to defile what's left of our nation's honor and integrity.

Since 9/11, we legalized gay marriage like a raised middle finger to God saying: "We're Number 1", not God and His Law. Yikes...

We've gone too far and we've ignored all of the negative feedback telling us to correct our course, so now Ezekiel 28 speaks to the consequences of our fallen state.

It's more negative feedback that's intended to get us to correct course before the next round of consequences, be we ain't listening.

‘In the pride of your heart you say, “I am a god; I sit on the throne of a god in the heart of the seas.”
But you are a mere mortal and not a god, though you think you are as wise as a god. Are you wiser than Daniela ? Is no secret hidden from you?
By your wisdom and understanding you have gained wealth for yourself and amassed gold and silver in your treasuries.
By your great skill in trading you have increased your wealth, and because of your wealth your heart has grown proud. 6“ ‘Therefore this is what the Sovereign Lord says:
‘Because you think you are wise, as wise as a god, I am going to bring foreigners against you, the most ruthless of nations; they will draw their swords against your beauty and wisdom and pierce your shining splendor.
They will bring you down to the pit, and you will die a violent death in the heart of the seas.
Will you then say, “I am a god,” in the presence of those who kill you?
You will be but a mortal, not a god, in the hands of those who slay you.
You will die the death of the uncircumcised at the hands of foreigners.

As a coincidental aside, in my One Year Bible, the reading for September 11 are: Isaiah 8:1 - 9:21; 2 Corinthians 12:1-10; and Psalm 55:1-23.
