Question of the Week: Where is the United States in Bible Prophecy?
Verses: 2 Peter 3:9
The United States is conspicuous by its absence in Bible Prophecy. We are given a remarkable amount of detail concerning the roles that nations like Russia, China, and especially Israel will play in the last days. However, no mention of the United States can be found concerning the nations that will play major roles during this time in history. There are three possible reasons for this. The first is that we will fall out of the role of a superpower like England and France before us due to the financial strain of bearing such a title. The second reason the United States does not play a major role in Bible Prophecy is because we may be taken out of the world scene through a cataclysm or war before the Tribulation gets into full swing. The third and most hopeful reason is that one last revival brakes out before the time of the Rapture in the US, and so many are taken before the Tribulation begins that the resulting blow to our economy ends up being one we never walk away from. Conservative estimates number the amount of evangelical Christians in the US in the millions. Could you imagine the financial strain put on this nation with that many people vanishing without a trace off the face of the earth? The 9/11 terrorist attacks cost the lives of almost 3,000 people and it took almost a decade for our nation to recover. Pray that this is the scenario that puts us out of the world scene, because there’s no better way for a nation to end their story then collapsing as a result of the work God has done in it.
