Ezekiel; the call is not to repentance, but to judgment. Its Application to our world

Originally posted 7-5-13

Today's question in Ezekiel, the call is not to repentance, but to judgment. Do you think this applies to some situations in our world currently? Why?

"The bricks are fallen down, but we will build with hewn stones: the sycomores are cut down, but we will change them into cedars." Isaiah 9:10 (KJV)

When I was taking  the KI “I 604 Intro to Analytical Thinking” course I wrote a Sorites inspired by Jonathan Cahn’s book, “The Harbinger: The ancient mystery that holds the secret of America's Future.” A Sorites is a series of Syllogisms telescoped into an argument. The argument resulting from this Sorites is that we in America have likely passed a critical point in our disobedience to God much as the Northern Kingdom did long ago.

The prophets are ignored by an Israel who does not have ears to hear

An Israel without ears to hear is defeated by the Assyrians

An Israel defeated by the Assyrians is a defiance Israel

A defiance Israel says we will rebuild

A rebuilt Israel fall falls again never to again be a nation.

There is a message for America In the book the Harbinger. We started out as a very God centered and blessed country. I always like to point out that we have mastered the trifecta of abortion on demand, same-sex marriage and throwing Israel under the bus. So I composed a Sorites dealing with America.

America has turned away from God

God has commandments we are to live by

The Commandments a we are to live by are ignored by a defiance America

A defiance America watches as her towers fall

The fallen towers inspire the defiant America

The inspired and defiant America has inspirited and defiant leaders

The inspirited and defiant leaders vow we will rebuild America

A rebuild America experiences an economic collapse in 2008

An economic collapse in 2008 results in major political changes

Major political changes give power to a very liberal administration

A liberal administration encourages a dependent, immoral society

A dependent, immoral society votes for four more years of the same

Four more years of the same angers our righteous God

Our righteous and angry God will continue the shaking (judgment) of America.

It has long been my prayer that it is not too late to salvage our country and escape God’s wrath. Just as Judah had passed the point of no return with God, I fear we in America have also done so. And as for the rest of the world, one has only to check the news.
