Dr. LaHaye went on to raise this question:”Does the United States have a place in the end time prophecy?” My first response is no, there is nothing about the U.S. in prophecy! At least nothing that is specific. There is an allusion to a group of nations in Ezekiel 38:13 that could apply, but even that is not specific. The question is why? Why would the God of prophecy not refer to the supreme superpower nation in the end times in preparation for the One world government of the Antichrist?
America will be in the mix of the political realignments that foreshadow the end of time. And we can see signs of such realignment taking place in recent years. Prophecy expert John Walvoord that America will be incorporated into the European coalition. Although scriptures do not give any clear word concerning the role of the United States in relation to the revived roman empire. But when it comes to the importance of trade between nations such agreements will have implications far beyond mere economic trade. Which leads to America being invaded by outside forces perhaps the silence of scripture on the future of America indicates that by the time the tribulation arrives America will have lost her influence in the world and no longer be a major player. America’s thirst for oil and inability to close the gap between supply and demand could cripple our ability to defend our borders and protect our nation.
John Walvoord addresses the issue: Some maintain that the total absence of any scriptural reference to America in the end time is evidence that the United States will have been crippled by a nuclear attack, weapons of mass destruction, or some other major catastrophe, In the post-9/11 world the detonation of a dirty bomb, nuclear device, or biological weapon on U.S. soil is a dreaded yet distinct possibility. Such an attack could kill millions of people, cripple the economy, and reduce the United States to a second-rate power overnight. There could be the Instability in Pakistan could lead to nuclear warheads falling in the hand of the radical islamic Jihadists. Our enemies that share a common disregard for human life and a burning hatred for the United States. Some want to close ears to predictions of impending disasters but experts like TImberlake and others see a major attack on our country in the near future.
America will be infected with moral decay. Remember God blessed this country for a reason: our nation was founded on submission to Him. But now as the reasons for his blessings upon America are eroding, we can expect the blessings themselves to fade as well. Once we invited God into our nation and made Him welcome as our most honored guest but now our culture seems bent on shutting Him out. Scripture often warns that God will not strive with men if we ignore divine directions we cannot expect God’s blessings. A limb that cuts itself off from the trunk will not continue to live. America will be impotent of the rapture, If the rapture took place today all true believers in Jesus disappears to heaven in a single moment and America could be obliterated. During the rapture America will lose millions of citizens and loose the very best, the “salt and light” of the nation the Ekklesia is holding back the most evil no one has ever seen one can not imagine the chaos in our country when all the Godly people disappear leaving only those who have rejected God. One cannot help but feel sense of the tension in our hearts but things we’ve never experienced are about to happen, and changes such as we never imagined loom on the horizon.
Since the promise of Christ’s coming for the Church has always been held out to His people as an event that could take place at any moment. Our trust should not rest in a nation or any administration that may shortly disappear, but in Him who works all things after the counsel of His own will.
