Jonathan Cahn, who is widely castigated on FR, said much the same thing in his book, The Harbinger.
His contention in the book was that 9/11 was a warning sign, a harbinger (hence the title), that God was removing His hand of protection from the US because of our sin. That we needed to heed that warning and turn back to Him in repentance.
In spite of abortion continuing and the whole homosexual movement spiraling out of control, and the Deep State, etc, God, for whatever purpose, has put Donald Trump in office.
My own theory on that is that God is allowing us to see the evil and presenting to us the godly in contrast to that, and giving people the option to choose. And since the distinction is becoming more and more clear cut, the evil is growing all the worse exponentially, when people choose, they are choosing with eyes wide open.
When God finally unleashes His judgment, there’s not a person who can say they did not know. If they are choosing the evil, they KNOW what they are choosing.
That’s an interesting perspective which I am inclined to agree with. In my view, what also seems to be happening is that many who see this contrast, and refuse to reconsider their path, are in fact, becoming even more rebellious. It’s as if you can see their hatred deepen within as they become even more brazen in their error and their growing intensity of their defense of their sin.
It seems as many are saying, “We can do whatever we want, whenever we want. There is no God, and those who claim there is a God are those uneducated hayseeds who seek to restrict me and tell me what to do. I am the master of all. I control my own life and we can control the planet.”
It is really sad to witness this growing darkness and to watch as society lose its collective ability to reason and discern. It seems to be a slow decent into madness.
