A new paradigm
“Therefore He hath poured upon him the fury of His anger, and the strength of battle: and it hath set him on fire round about, yet he knew not; and it burned him, yet he laid it not to heart.” (Is. 42:25).
There is a lot of talk today attempting to unmask the robbers of American’s wealth. The talk comes on all levels—TV radio, internet, and grassroots conversation. They have all the causes figured out—corporations’ criminal manipulation of the market, congress paid off by international bankers, the intentional unlimited draining of our government’s credit card and borrowing from other countries.
But there is a root cause that as yet no one has discovered; neither has anyone given recommendations for its solution. That root cause is found in the Bible. The true cause of America’s crumbling condition is described in detail in a book no one puts any stock in; therefore everyone will continue in the same vain—and certainly fighting a phantom in vain. They will never put their finger on the real robbers or fully solve the puzzle.
What they need to solve the riddle is a paradigm shift. They need to begin seeing themselves differently; not as just Americans, but as Protestants. Until they do this, they will never unwrap the mystery.
The explanation goes like this: we are the descendents of the Reformation. Whether or not we want to admit to it. And Protestantism had and still has a tenacious unforgiving foe. That mighty adversary has sworn to destroy its one major enemy—Protestantism. To destroy Protestantism means to destroy its people, body, mind and soul. It means to destroy its strong middle class and divinely inherited strong economic machine. It means to rob its many caches of wealth that made it invulnerable and unconquerable. It means to offer every kind of temptation imaginable to ruin its moral fiber. It means to destroy its families, its wealth, its ecology, its civil military, its innocence, its faith in God.
To destroy Protestantism means to bring the nation to irrecoverable ruin. But who is this unrelenting, indefatigable foe of Protestantism? Rome. The Vatican who has claimed, “we have no God but Satan.” For the sake of its own preservation against the reproofs of the Reformation for its improvement and reconnection with the “only true God” (Jn. 17:3), the Papacy sold its soul when it turned to silence its divinely commissioned accusers, the Reformers, and sought to totally quench their light. And since then Satan has taken full control of the Vatican, infilling them with his enmity against God and His people.
When the Vatican turned out the Jesuits to destroy Protestants, it followed the same example of Cain against Abel, Balaam against Israel at Baal-peor, and the Jews to Stephen. They showed heaven and earth that they had no king but Caesar. As it was in Christ’s day with the Jews, today’s enemy of God’s people has no god but Satan. And without this new paradigm, Protestants will remain in confusion with regard to its trouble. And they will remain paralyzed to do the necessary remedy—repent for their departure from God.
“The sinners in Zion are afraid; fearfulness hath surprised the hypocrites. Who among us shall dwell with the devouring fire? who among us shall dwell with everlasting burnings?” (Is. 33:14).
The Protestant Americans’ only solution is to admit that we’ve left God and despised His covenant in the Law and gospel. So He has lifted His protection for Protestantism after giving us a long period of grace. In 1849 the denominations fully rejected their Savior, and Jesus had to loose Satan upon them, as shown in Rev. 9:1-21.
The plague from the bottomless pit is wrapping the world in his final deception. It will not be retrieved until America and the world under America’s guardianship fully divides into two groups: an angry, brutal, and wicked group beyond redemption that will comprise the vast majority of the world; and a humbled, contrite, obedient, faithful, submissive remnant that keep the commandments of God and have the faith of Jesus.
“And I heard the Man clothed in linen, which was upon the waters of the river, when He held up His right hand and His left hand unto heaven, and sware by Him that liveth for ever that it shall be for a time, times, and an half; and when He shall have accomplished to scatter the power of the holy people, all these things shall be finished.” (Dan. 12:7).
When “the lofty looks of man shall be humbled, and the haughtiness of men shall be bowed down, and the Lord alone shall be exalted in that day,” then “the day of the Lord of hosts shall be upon every one that is proud and lofty, and upon every one that is lifted up; and he shall be brought low.” (Is. 2:11,12).
Therefore America is on the cusp of a mammoth humbling. Some will see God’s hand in the catastrophes ahead and will respond to the appeal of divine love. Most will fight it and continue to claim their rights to the good life of the old America. They will be so addicted to the easy lifestyle of the 20th century, Protestants will be so rooted in the world, that they will be unable to reconcile with the loss of it all. The whole world is about to be humbled in the dust. Will you allow yourself to be humbled? Will you take to heart the lord’s injunction to Protestants today?
“The Lord is well pleased for His righteousness’ sake; He will magnify the law, and make it honourable.
But this is a people robbed and spoiled; they are all of them snared in holes, and they are hid in prison houses: they are for a prey, and none delivereth; for a spoil, and none saith, Restore.
Who among you will give ear to this? who will hearken and hear for the time to come?
Who gave Jacob for a spoil, and Israel to the robbers? did not the Lord, He against whom we have sinned? for they would not walk in His ways, neither were they obedient unto His law.
Therefore He hath poured upon him the fury of His anger, and the strength of battle: and it hath set him on fire round about, yet he knew not; and it burned him, yet he laid it not to heart.” (Is. 42:21-25).
Leviticus 26 says that if one tragedy didn’t humble us then our God will bring on tragedies 7 times worse. If that wouldn’t turn our hearts to repentance, then the almighty would bring us 7 times worse disasters. Poverty, starvation, captivity and slavery, and death will be our lot until we finally admit our departure from our redeemer and bow to His discipline.
“If they shall confess their iniquity, and the iniquity of their fathers, with their trespass which they trespassed against Me, and that also they have walked contrary unto Me;
And that I also have walked contrary unto them, and have brought them into the land of their enemies; if then their uncircumcised hearts be humbled, and they then accept of the punishment of their iniquity:
Then will I remember My covenant with Jacob, and also My covenant with Isaac, and also My covenant with Abraham will I remember; and I will remember the land.” (Lev. 26:40-42).
I realize this is a new concept for everyone, but it is the reality we are experiencing today.
There is no turning back the clock. We are on an express train that will not stop until the Latter Rain is received and the gospel is preached for a witness to the whole world, then WWIII and a time of trouble, and in the end Jesus returns to deliver those people who chose humility and repentance toward God and faith toward Jesus’ grace. Everyone else will receive the falling stars as billions of asteroids pummel the Earth into a desolate wilderness and punish the rejectors of Gods’ justice and mercy.
“For My name’s sake will I defer Mine anger, and for My praise will I refrain for thee, that I cut thee not off.
Behold, I have refined thee, but not with silver; I have chosen thee in the furnace of affliction.
For Mine own sake, even for Mine own sake, will I do it: for how should My name be polluted? and I will not give My glory unto another.
Hearken unto My, O Jacob and Israel, My called; I am He; I am the first, I also am the last.
Mine hand also hath laid the foundation of the earth, and My right hand hath spanned the heavens: when I call unto them, they stand up together.
All ye, assemble yourselves, and hear; which among them hath declared these things? The Lord hath loved him: He will do His pleasure on Babylon, and His arm shall be on the Chaldeans.” (Is. 48:9-14).
