Hello John and Doves,
This is an excellent interview on The
Prophecy Watchers with Gary Stearman interviewing David
Reagan.
I've added my notes below if you want the
'Cliff' notes, but I encourage to listen to what David has
to say about where he thinks our nation is right now in
terms of what he has seen take place over and over in the
Bible with nations that do not repent.
His outline of the three steps before
destruction is very enlightening - I see clearly that this
is happening with the 'depraved mines/insanity' going on in
America right now.
Maranatha!
Chance
Gary and
David start off talking about 'the biblical worldview' and
what it means. They talk about American prophets and
modern voices that are speaking out today.
The prophets of Israel
were sent by G-d to Israel to warn them - if you don't
repent G-d will allow a foreign nation to come in and wipe
you out. G-d warned them over and over with prophet
after prophet. G-d did the same thing with Judah.
G-d doesn't pour out his
wrath without warning - He sends His prophets, if they don't
listen to prophetic voices, if they don't listen He sends
remedial judgments calling to repentance, if they keep
shaking their fist He'll move them from judgment to
destruction.
Today prophetic voices
are calling America to repentance and people are scoffing
and laughing; He has blessed this nation and the nation has
turned against Him - it violates His word and shakes it's
fist at Him.
Several pastors in America still
have hope - they say 'yes, it's bad, yes, it's terrible,
but because of the great revivals of the past, we would
grew cold but there would be revival, we would grow cold, there
would be revival' - - however, it's different
this time - we are now in open rebellion of G-d,
shaking our fists at G-d!
In Greek 'halipas', perilous,
means
insane.
"This know also that in the last
days insane times shall come for many shall be".... lovers
of their own selves, lovers of money, covetous, boasters,
proud, abusive, blasphemers,.disobedient to their parents,
ungrateful, unholy (they will consider nothing sacred),
without love, unforgiving, slanderous, without
self-control, brutal, not lovers of good, irreconcilable,
malicious gossips, haters of good, merciless, slanderers,
their words will be cruel, violent, treacherous, rash,
conceited, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of G-d.,
they will act religious, but they will reject G-d.
(These are the various translations found on
biblehub.)
This is the time in which we now
live - society is disintegrating before our own eyes.
As Christians we are looking for the Lord moment by
moment. G-d deals with nations and He is dealing
with America - we are rebelling and refusing to repent!
David Reagan said that based on
how G-d deals with nations - when a nation rebels and
refuses to repent, G-d will step back and lower 'the hedge
of protection' and first, when He does this, is there is a
sexual revolution (60s); if the nation still doesn't
repent, G-d lowers 'the hedge of protection' a second
time, this allows evil to multiply (homosexual plague -
70s, 80s and continues to today); and if the nation
refuses to repent still, He steps back a third time and'
lowers the hedge of protection' and delivers the nation to
a depraved mine.
David believes we are at this
third step right now where G-d is pouring out His wrath,
indirectly, by lowering that hedge of protection and
allowing evil to multiply and we are in that
depraved mine state. He gives the
examples: NYC says there are 51 different genders
and employees will be fired if they don't recognize them.
He sees this pattern in the
Bible and sees we are following this pattern and we are
heading towards destruction. He says there is
tremendous hope for individuals, may not be so much for
America. That hope is Jesus Christ.
And now is the time to come to
Christ.
