The Soon Coming Judgment Of God Upon America and How To Escape It 46
Chapter 3
America In Prophecy
It is without a doubt that America is the most powerful nation ever on the face of the
earth. The United States has also had more influence on the world than any other nation in
history. Being the greatest nation in history, many people are surprised that they don’t find more
about America and her future in God’s Holy Word, the Bible.
Although the specific name of America or the United States does not occur in the
scriptures, God has not left her out of scripture. Speaking to the Kingdom of Israel, Jesus stated:
“Therefore say I unto you, The kingdom of God shall be taken from you, and given to a nation
bringing forth the fruits thereof.” (Matthew 21:43) This text speaks of America because it is
America who has fulfilled these words of Jesus. America is the only nation on earth founded as a
Christian nation and on the principals found in God’s Holy Word. America has truly brought
forth the fruits of God.
America Has Taken The Gospel To The World
Americans have taken to heart God’s great commission found in the book of Matthew:
Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the
Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost: Teaching them to observe all
things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo, I am with you alway, even
unto the end of the world. Amen. (Matthew 28:19-20)
Americans have taken the gospel into the far reaches of the earth. Although America
accounts for only 5 percent of the population of the world, 90 percent of the professional clergy
in the world are in America. Americans have sent out missionaries by sailboat, steam ship,
airplane, and by jet. We have translated the gospel into hundreds of languages. We have erected
radio towers that spread the gospel around the earth. And now through satellite technology the
gospel message is being sent out to televisions around the globe. Without question, the earth has
been blessed because of America and the individual efforts of Christian Americans, which have
produced a bountiful harvest of fruit (millions of lives have been saved because they have come
to know the saving grace of Jesus Christ through the missionary efforts of Americans).
In return God has blessed America according to the promises in his word. God promised
to bless any nation who keeps his commandments according to the faith that was Abraham’s.
