The First Post-Christian Generation Is Coming - And It Will Transform America
PNW ^ | 10/27/20 | Jonathon Van Maren

Posted on 10/27/2020 5:17:18 PM PDT by Roman_War_Criminal

For the last decade or so, those warning of civilizational collapse have been accused of being alarmist. I recently reviewed Rod Dreher's latest book, Live Not By Lies: A Manual for Christian Dissidents, and noted that many still believe that a "silent majority" of Americans are opposed to the radicalism of the Left--that eventually, progressives will "go too far" and that the pendulum will back.

I've heard that case made by people far more educated and intelligent than myself, and I hope they're right. But I'd like to share a few reasons that I think it far more likely that Dreher is right, and that Western civilization--not just the United States--is on the brink of a long and dark post-Christian moment.

It is true that most people are still not on board with the radicalism of the transgender movement, for example. But we need to remember that the public education system has been completely colonized by the LGBT movement, and children who spend thirteen years in a state school will emerge transformed.

If you are a Christian and send your child to a public school, expect him to lose his views. If public school doesn't do the trick, college or university might. Essentially, a radical movement has virtually unsupervised access to the majority of the nation's children for the first, formative years of their lives.

Well.....that supposes that the coming chastisements don’t result in a bit of repentance....

Post Christian societies are much more resistant to repentance as it is much worse to see the Truth, and then deny it, than to never have heard the truth at all. Blasphemy of the Holy Spirit comes to mind.

Worse, it’s polluting the rest of the world.

The heretic Pope is on board with the homosexual movement that wants to destroy the church.

With “Christian” leaders like that, the battle is already lost.

The battle is won. We also know that in the process or society will fail and Christians will be persecuted. But the battle, for the souls of believers, is won.

The bottom line. . .we need to be ready and also ask God to make Divine appointments with those of the “last generation”.

First one in a while, but not the first one. 1700s there were no Christians at some of our major colleges, Harvard, Princeton. Mock Communion services. Burning Bibles. And you know what happened? The First Great Awakening.

Don’t count God out.

Romans 1:18-32 is more specific.

Revelation tells where these “post-Christians” will go and what they will do.

Frankly, I’m betting that some now Muslim leader claiming the caliphate will announce a new poofter friendly / mandatory form of Islam and will be able to pull in the West’s “progressives” in droves.

It has already come (for at least 2 generations), and America has already had a major transformation.

It will take at LEAST 2 generations to set the path back in the right direction.

I agree. Trump is a grace period. A whole big generation grew up in daycares, public school idiocy and Godlessness.

I believe there is some passages in the Bible that prophesied that Pope Francis would be the “last” pope. I can’t remember which one though.

Benedict was the last Pope. This Marxist works for the other team.

Look up St. Malachy’s prophecies of the Popes.

He may have been on to something.

Frankie is it IMHO and a true candidate for the False Prophet of Revelation who gets tossed straight into the Lake of Fire in Revelation 19.

When you have no god and no better hereafter, you instantly decide they need to create perfection in our present societies. You know, like Soviets, Pol Pot, nazis, progressives, etc.

And when you are in the way of their plan, they’ll kill you.

Exactly!
And when you have no hope - what do you do and how do you act?

Well stated!
