Beware of False Revivals
As predicted to happen, our beloved country appears to be on a fast track toward rejecting its God inspired Constitution, a prediction that is fully supported by Scripture.
All the world will be forced to worship the beast from the sea (Revelation 13:1, 8) by accepting his “mark of authority,” or, suffer the full penalties of the law (verses 12-17). The changed day of worship, from the seventh to the first day, in the Ten Commandment Law of God, is claimed by the one who made the change, to be a “mark of their authority,” in being able to do so (previous articles).
In order for this forced worship to happen, the Constitution would have to be by-passed. To give one example showing how easily that could happen in order to favor a religious viewpoint, the Supreme Court while acknowledging the religious origins of Sunday blue laws, held that they were constitutional. The state can prohibit commercial activities on certain days, even if the days are selected for apparently religious reasons.
When the power of the state, forcing the dogmas of the church, is brought to bear upon the so-called dissenters of its religious laws, and then influences the world to follow its example, the voice of the dragon will be heard and the lamblike horns will disappear.
What could bring about this dangerous reversal of principles in a country so wonderfully blessed and used by God? One suggested answer, disastrous happenings of hitherto unknown magnitude attributed to a departure from God, thus leading to a nationwide call to repent as its only hope. Many religious leaders are alarmed that America is in danger of falling from God’s grace, and therefore, are already making that call. “In Ukraine, there are billboards that say, ‘Our only hope is God.’ We need some billboards like that here in this country.” — Franklin Graham.
God cannot refuse to honor a sincere call to repentance, as can be seen in the warning message of Jonah, given to the wicked city of Nineveh. However, Satan, the mastermind behind the unbelievable wickedness and crazy things happening in our big cities recently, is working hard to create a false revival in which our Constitution will be set aside and the Law of God trashed. Christians who are walking with God, will not be deceived.
