The Soon Coming Judgment Of God Upon America and How To Escape It                 18
inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, and for instruction
in righteousness (2 Timothy 3:16). Therefore, the word provides instructions to us on how to
become righteous, how to obtain God's mercy and grace. It also provides warnings and examples
of what will prevent us from obtaining God's mercy and grace. If we fail to follow the
instructions given in scripture and fail to head these warnings, we will receive God's judgment
and wrath. If God were to let sin persist forever, he would be letting pain and suffering persist
forever. A holy and loving God can't and won't do this!
The word of God also includes prophecy which is a look into the future. The future
provided in the scriptures is totally accurate and absolute. Jesus Christ is the Alpha and Omega
the beginning and the end, he knows all things. He sees the future as clearly as the past.
(Revelation 1:8, 22:13)
The scriptures provide example after example of how God tried to warn Israel that she
would be judged if she continued in her sin and rebellion against God. Time after time Israel
continued in her sin and rebellion and time after time God judged Israel in fulfillment of his
promise.
God provides an end-time warning to the world in the Book of Revelation. In Revelation
13, God warns that near the end of time on the earth, a one-world government and one-world
religion will emerge. This one-world government and one-world religion will be a terrible beast
and will persecute God's faithful followers who keep the commandments of God. The beast will
try and force all the world to accept a mark and to worship an image of the beast. Those refusing
to accept the mark and worship the image will be prevented from buying and selling and will
have a penalty of death declared on them. Only God's faithful followers, those who keep the
commandments of God, will refuse to accept the mark and worship the image.
In Revelation 17 God shows that a woman he calls Babylon is riding a beast. The beast is
the one-world government and one-world religion. God is revealing that this woman is
controlling the beast; a rider controls what they ride. In Revelation 18 God describes the woman
in great detail. Through these descriptions, God reveals the identity of the woman, who is called
Babylon.
God loves the inhabitants of Babylon and through his great mercy and grace he is calling
them to repentance so they can be spared from his judgment. Although the warning is to the
entire nation, God has revealed that the nation will not repent. Therefore, he is calling individuals
in Babylon to repent of their sins and the sins of their nation so that they may be protected from
the coming judgment upon the nation. This book series painstakingly documents a literal
mountain of evidence that reveals the identity of Babylon, which is the United States of America.
I did not come to this conclusion on my own. I did not discover it and I did not figure it
out. It was revealed to me by the Lord after hundreds of hours of prayer. In 1999 I completed the
workbook Experiencing God: Knowing And Doing The Will Of God by Henry T. Blackaby and
Claude V. King in a small group Bible study. It was a life changing experience. During the
course of the study, I wrote a personal prayer:
“Father in Heaven, Lord, Jesus Christ, Creator of all things, Mighty Councilor,
Redeemer, Savior, Physician, My Intercessor, Faithful and True, My Refuge in Times of Trouble,
My Refuge in Times of Disaster, My Comforter in Sorrow, He Who Blots Out Our
