“I think the USA will suffer some type of catastrophic defeat”
,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,
I believe that if we look to history, you will be proven correct:
Ancient Israel was much like the USA: they were blessed by God, but warned NOT to descend into wickedness. But they mocked God repeatedly, and were destroyed.
Our current troubles are SYMPTOMS, not causes. The root cause of our problems, is pushing God out of our schools, homes, government and our churches.
I heard a similar statement on a podcast a couple of weeks ago from Eli Crane, former Navy Seal and 1st term congressman from Arizona, he was asked if he was hopeful the country could be turned around.
His answer struck a nerve with me, he said and I’m paraphrasing, he was always hopeful but not confident at all that the country was suffering a Spiritual Problem.
We can no longer tell right from wrong, it’s simply wrong to destroy your borders, it’s simply wrong to claim your sex can be chosen, we are now debating that men can compete in competitive sports with women because we can’t be certain what are men or women.
I am not the most informed religious person, but I am a firm believer as a Christian and I do agree with your comparison that the USA is akin to ancient Israel and will ultimately be destroyed.
What comes after that will be a very interesting time to be alive, I’m not sure I will be, but I would like to be and see how it all turns out.
