[Note: Today and tomorrow are “bad news/good news” days. Today, we paint the picture of what is going on right here in America and around the world. Tomorrow, we unveil God’s Word clearly and plainly. Don’t read today’s post without coming back tomorrow to hear the Word of God!]

So much in Europe and America should appall us! We hear a lot about “hate speech,” yet it seems to be okay as long as it is not a Christian pastor or outspoken lay person speaking of Biblical righteousness. THAT is hate speech according to some.

Meanwhile we have angry anti-Semites spewing vitriolic hate towards Jews and Christians. Friends, I’m not talking about another country halfway around the world. It is happening every day in cities across America.

In the clip at that link, we see and hear the Detroit Imam clearly say:

• Islam is the last hope for America.
• You cannot sustain morals without Islam, and Islam is the one true religion that will preserve morals. (Per the Qu’ran, it is okay to kill Jews, lie, and treat women as subhuman.)
• You have two roles here in America: To Teach About Allah, and to frustrate the Zionists. Frustrate the Zionists with every single mode that is within your reach, as a citizen of this country.
• They (Zionists/Jews) are the cockroaches of history, and we are the liberators.

All that in less than 2 minutes. And this goes on in Islamic gatherings all across America. (Don’t believe me, check out MEMRI’s YouTube channel.)

Friends, while there is amazing ministry going on in Israel (see Sunday’s post), evil is growing its foothold throughout western civilization. It is happening right under our noses, and no one seems to notice or care.

It is time, believing friends, for us to live out lives of faith in every area of life. We must stand up for Israel, we must stand up for religious liberty in America, and we must make known to our elected officials that we want our country back.

What we see today are signs that our world cannot go down this pathway and expect to survive. Thankfully, God has promised to take us out of the wrath that is to come. We haven’t seen anything close to the wrath that God will unleash during the tribulation, but we are certainly seeing the pieces fall into place for the coming of the antichrist and the beginning of the tribulation. (See note below.)

When you see Christmas lights appearing, you know Thanksgiving is just around the corner! Tribulation’s “lights” are beginning to shine, so we know the rapture is just around the corner. No one knows the day or hour, but we are living in the time and season.

Are you ready?

Note: The antichrist will not be Muslim! He will come from the revised Roman empire…Europe. He will appease the Jewish people with the long-awaited third temple, which means there will likely not be much Muslim influence remaining. Perhaps because Muslim influence is diminished in the Ezekiel 38-39 War of Gog and Magog.
