End Time Prophecies

Well, how about the spirit of lawlessness and corruption ? There are places that I won’t name that you cannot even visit without having your tour guide or your hotel being paid off in order to keep you safe . By their own hand they have devolved into a third world nation.
America is disintegrating right before our eyes in part because of lawlessness, immortality , drugs and devaluation of human life . We can barely take care of ourselves ( the streets of L.A. for example ) much less the refugees of the world . And yes, it is hard not to see this as a precursor of the coming of Christ and a world where faith is not found .
Prune Soleiado:
Marshall’s plan wasn’t purely generous. After WW2, America’s economy was doing so great it produces too much. United States needed to export what it overproduced. But western Europe was totally bloodless, its economy was dead and it was in desperate need of reconstruction.
Marshall found a way to use America’s overproduction by proposing his plan, but it wasn’t free of charge. It demanded the countries, if they accept this plan, not to turn themselves to other countries help, especially Russia. First part of the cold war...
It lead Europe to a dependance on the United States, economically, which implied a political dependance so that nazism and above all communism wouldn’t take any power over Europe, an important market place for America by that time. Western Germany, in particular, became America’s display, for its frontiers was too close to Russia’s dominion.
South America’s countries suffered a rather opposite process. In order to prevent communism to expand in countries nearby the US, this last choose to weaken those countries by promoting political figures which accepted to be dependant on America’s economy, even if it forces the US to help dictators to take place. Castro rebelled against that, and Cuba paid a hard price for this.
The purpose is simple: America doesn’t want any strong country nearby its borders, for it would be a threat, both economically and politically. So there’ll still be 2 years old immigrant children drowing in the Rio Grande, unless the US stop fearing for a power to keep that no longer exists anymore.
The Spirit wasn’t different in the 50’s, it’s just that the world’s configuration was different from now. But the spirit of evil stays the same. Pride. And selfishness. Lack of love. Then no worship for God our Father, only for the human heart.
Today good thinking mentality has invaded the world’s system, it’s a false idol in the heart.
Jesus is the only way, the only truth, the only life. There is no way for the carnal world to change without Jesus our Savior and Lord.
Again, flesh reproduces (again and again), only God’s Spirit produces.
Amen.

Prune, Mexico was a strong partner for a long time . It had a good economy and it was a beautiful place to visit . They devolved into lawlessness and that is what you’re seeing now and why people want to leave and why people are killed when they stand up to them .
The US considers a hostile military as a threat , not an economy . We don’t wave a magic wand and make people bend to our will . You think we’re some kind of Svengali and you give us way too much blame for the actions of the world .
But we bear the burdens that we bear for wrong we have done . Every country does. And since this thread is about end times and not politics - how does a nation give an account to God for what it has done ? Is this something that plays out in this life only ? I would think so , and God deals with us all individually at the resurrection. At least that’s what I glean from scripture .
Dennis Vogel:
Rev 13:17 And that no man might buy or sell, save he that had the mark, or the name of the beast, or the number of his name.
Could this be talking about the tariffs?
