End Times and America

History Future: Why do you think America is not mentioned in the Bible? Do we become weakened and irrelevant, merging into Europe? Do we cease to exist? Mt 24:22.

Response to comment [from a Jew]:  "Is this really a question?"

Yes.

Response to comment [from a Christian]:  "Herbert Armstrong believes that the peoples of Great Britain and the early US founding citizens ... are mainly the descendants of the lost 10 tribes of Israel..."

That's hard to prove.

Response to comment [from a Christian]:  "For a different perspective on Herbert W. Armstrong and ''British Israelism", I recommend Walter Martin's "Kingdom of the Cults"."

Much better.

Response to comment [from a Jew]:  "[W]hy would America be mentioned?"

Do you believe we will go the way of Europe?

"I guess I don't follow - what way is that?"  

European socialism is failing in Europe.

According to Dennis Prager: "...The future of humanity will be: Islam, European-based secular left, American/Judeo-Christian or chaos..." Where do you think our nation is headed?

See:

American Exceptionalism vs European Socialism Pt 1

"I guess I don't think much of "Judeo-Christian" as a concept. The two don't really go together, unless it's Christians trying to ride on the coat-tails of some great Jewish ideas."

Judeo-Christian values not theology. 

Response to comment [from a Christian]:  "I believe that America is mentioned in the book of Revelation."

No.

Is the United States of America in Bible prophesy? Does the Bible ever mention the USA?

Response to comment [from a Christian]:  [America part of Israel]

Replacement theology (e.g. Roman Catholic teaching) is false.

See:

What is replacement theology / supersessionism?

Response to comment [from an atheist]:  ["You're an idiot."]  "No, statement of fact.  Unless, of course, you can conclusively demonstrate that you aren't one..."

And I just complimented you. Mr. Darcy was seemingly an S.O.B.--but, he turns out ok in the end of the novel.

I have high hopes for you-- no demonstratable evidence thus far--but high hopes nonetheless.

"...[Y]ou need to change my name to "GeraldBiohazard".

I thought that very thing. You know you're a biohazard. This is a good thing (Ro 3:23).

"What bothers you is that I gleefully wallow in that sinful state, that I deliberately and gratuitously fail to love my neighbor as myself."

Yes, but unlike Cruiform, you admit it.  This is a good thing (Ro 3:23).

"Consider: in all the time you've been posting here, have I ever given you a kind word?"

Are you suggesting that you don't care for me?

Response to comment [from an atheist]:  "Didn't they think the world was flat then?"

Not if they knew their Bible (Job 26:7, Isa 40:22). You've been listening to too many perverts (1 Cor 15:33).

See:

How to Know the Bible is the Word of God

Response to comment [from an atheist]:  [Sinful state] "That's like "admitting" that human beings metabolize oxygen."

The super pious are too good to be saved. You know you're a hazmat bug (γνῶθι σεαυτόν Re 3:17).
