But in the end there is only one conclusion – the government
in power before the election will continue in power.
And there is one other observation – the country and the
world continues to move steadily down the road to the imminent return of Jesus
Christ.
The past four years have seen a great fall in influence and
in economic power of the one world super power, the United States. That trend clearly will continue, as internal
reshuffling of income distribution and government priorities renders the
country ever less influential. It has
gotten caught up in minor priorities and interests of various specific groups
that seek to better themselves, and the net result is that this selfish
approach has crushed and will continue to crush this once powerful nation.
The return of Jesus is imminent. The situation in the Middle East has not
changed. Israel now is more alone than
ever, in terms of support of other nations.
The coming wars discussed not long ago in one of our Watchman
Warnings are still to come. I
don’t think it will be long before we see some action in that area.
The real question for all people is do they know Jesus
Christ truly? Have they been born of
water and the Spirit? Are they in the
Lamb’s book of life? Are they going with
him when he comes or are they staying behind to endure the tribulation period
and either hopefully accepting the Lord then or sadly ending up in the Lake of
Fire.
The trend is here, the direction set, and the progress
continues. The various countries are at
different points. In some places there
are even encouraging breakthroughs for believers. But inevitably the Lord will come at the
appointed time. He must come soon,
whether that is in a day, a month, a year, or a few years, because prophesied
things have now happened that must happen within the generation of his
return. A generation is by definition
only so long. And the counting of that
generation began at least as far back as 1948, maybe even further.
So you see there is not much time.
We will issue more comments on the election and the
implications in a coming newsletter sent to all next week, but I do want you to
know I have not overlooked it. I also
want you to know I don’t intend to make rash observations or judgments. God has this plan, you see, and he is
sticking to it. I’ve written about it so
much now. Hopefully you have read some
of that.
The thing for you to do is to keep your eyes on Jesus and to
rejoice in your knowledge of him. To the
extent you can, help others in their journey to him.
