Isaiah 9:16 16 And so they (the people of Israel) were like this: Those who led this people were causing them to drift off course And those who were led were being confused.

Key Verse for U.S. Elections Daniel 2:21 21 “It is He who changes the times and the epochs; He removes kings and establishes kings; He gives wisdom to wise men And knowledge to men of understanding.

Who is Daniel 2:21 talking about? The story of Daniel 2 Nebuchadnezzar: The evil king God used to punish sinful Judah Habakkuk 1:5-7 5 “Look among the nations! Observe! Be astonished! Wonder! Because I am doing something in your days— You would not believe if you were told.

6 “For behold, I am raising up the Chaldeans, That fierce and impetuous people Who march throughout the earth To seize dwelling places which are not theirs. 7 “They are dreaded and feared; Their justice and authority originate with themselves.

How Can We Understand God’s Dealings with the USA? God deals with individuals and the nations they comprise God’s dealings with national Israel—United Kingdom and Divided—Israel and Judah Continuity: Nation Discontinuity: Covenant Nation UNDERLYING PRINCIPLES: Righteousness –Care for the poor –Honoring human life

Single Issue Governance: HUMAN LIFE Gen 9:6: the basis for all human government Key issue is God’s Image Human life and private property Dependent Rulership: Private Property and God’s image God’s image and self-sufficiency

How Can We Conceive of God’s dealings with the USA? Individual liberty requiring individual responsibility The spiritual component The Founders’ understanding of history The Trading of “In God We Trust” to “Yes We Can” Who is our hope?!

Arno C. Gabelein "Morally the world sinks lower and lower. Christendom is turning more and more away from the supernatural, the foundation of true Christianity, turning from the spiritual to the material, giving up the message of power for social improvements …. The faith as revealed in God’s infallible Book is abandoned; apostasy is seen everywhere. World conversion, the world accepting Christianity? What mockery! The nations of the world were never as far away from accepting Christ as Saviour and recognize Him as Lord as in 1938."

Gabelein’s 2 Characteristics of Civilization in the Church Age 1)INCREASING PERSECUTION OF ISRAEL 2)INCREASING DEGENERACY

The ONLY HOPE of mankind in every age.... The Glorious Reappearing of the Lord Jesus Christ This future event will answer every question, solve every problem which humanity faces today, and all the existing chaotic conditions, and bring about that golden age of which heathen poets dreamed, which the Bible promises is in store for the earth.
