I am sure that God had thought that in this time that Christians would be His world champions fighting against His enemies fulfilling the role of the thief who followed Jesus crucified on his right-hand side.
Christians do need to rise to their responsibility and be willing to struggle for the salvation of the world, their dying brothers and sisters.
But when you look at the Church's, Christians today are too busy worrying about making their separate denominations and churches grow. All Christians should unite and with the Messiah.
The 'end of the world' discussed often by believers is really the time of the arrival of the Lord of the Second Advent carrying God's direct message which will save and unite humanity.
The returned Messiah must have a base, a foundation which is prepared to fulfill Jesus' unfinished mission.
He will need a new environment unlike witnessed in the New Testament. For that purpose, God work thousands of years to set up one landmark achievement: the creation of democracy.
In America, we have a system which is strict about the Constitution which include the rights of freedom of speech and freedom of religion.
When we look at the history of the Pilgrims, their wonderful sacrifice brought these freedoms about - that Christian Spirit.
Democracy was the most important preparation for the coming of the Messiah.
"If this nation did not guarantee religious rights, could I freely preach like this? Would I be safe in this country? Even with its democracy there has been some religious martyrdom in America. America is meant to be that base for God's will to progress today, but America is deeply troubled.Christians today are still a minority in the world.
Are they respected by the rest of the population? Christians have become arrogant, feeling that they are especially privileged people of God and the rest of the world is doomed to die. Many Christians believe that when Jesus comes again they will be lifted up to meet the Lord in the air while the rest of the world is consumed in the fire of judgement. How can the rest of the world admire people like that?
When I first came to America, I went to New York and stood on Fifth Avenue during the rush hour. Suddenly tears began pouring down my face. I looked at the wonder of the Empire State Building and the magnificence of the new Trade Center -- the tallest buildings in the world. But I asked myself, "Does God dwell in those buildings?"
New York is becoming more and more a city without God. It is a city of crime. Such a beautiful city is now crumbling. I can see so much immorality and so many signs of godlessness in that city. It was shocking to my eyes as I stood watching during that rush hour. I could see so many things at once that are all intolerable in the sight of God.
I asked God, "Is this the purpose for which you blessed America?" I know God wants to see His spirit prevail in those great buildings. In those beautiful automobiles He wants to see young people strong in their enthusiasm for God and the love of others.
It doesn't take the Empire State Building to glorify God; it doesn't take a new automobile to glorify God. Even if you have only a rock as your altar, when you pour out your hope and your tears upon it for the service of God, God is with you. I can really see that God is leaving the great city of New York. New York is instead becoming the city of evil."

We know America to be the 'melting pot' where people of all the five colors, nationalities and creed melt into one new breed.
If anything needs to melt, it requires heat. What then was the heat for America to bring this beautiful process of melting all of humanity into one place?
God was the heat necessary for that process.
"Without God, you could never have melted your people together."
The true brotherhood that is witnessed in America could only come through the Christan spirit. But now that we are beginning to lose this foundation, America's moral fiber is deteriorating beginning with the family breakdown.
Look at the American young people.
There is also the drug and alcohol problem, sexual promiscuity and juvenile delinquency.
In the time of Jesus leprosy was a great problem; drugs are the leprosy of America today.
The drug problem began as Red China manufactured opium and distributed it through the soldiers fighting against the Viet Cong.
In the pas, England exported opium to China and India to corrupt their youth, now, Red China uses this same destructive way to corrupt Western youth.
Once one becomes a drug use, it is had to overcome this habit.
Money is needed for such a habit and users will do inhumane things to keep it up.
Nazis killed 6 million Jewish people, but there are more young people being killed in larger quantities through drug use.
Communists work underground here to cause this destruction. Do they do drugs themselves? No, they forbid their own young from having that behavior.
Can you see the destruction of the family structure and the morality of sex?
The American entertainment reflects the disappearance of our Christian morals.
"American society has degenerated to such an extent that it is making Sodom and Gomorrah look trivial. The "gay liberation" movement is gaining tremendous momentum, but that is virtually a tool of Satan by which he seeks to destroy the most precious, fundamental values of God. The gay movement seeks to justify itself through gaining legal, political and ultimately moral power, but this is disgusting in the sight of God."
The very definition of 'sin' is the violation of God's law of love.
God abhors sin.
Those who indulges in unprincipled love will only perish.
America today is not an exception to this very rule that judged such cities in history. Ultimately, God's law and love will prevail!
The fall occurred due to unchaste love relationship which bore the children of satan all the way to our generation.
These Last Days which the Bible predicted is the time when selfish, individualistic love will fall away and reach perfection of God-level love.
In such a world of peace, anything other than God's love will be scorned. Amen. Saints of all generations have prayed and waited for such a day.
