Okay, so I have made a bold statement that will shake the Christian world. There are only a few Biblical teachers in the Christian circles that make such claims. Can their claims be lined up with Scripture?
Most Christians say that the United States just ISN'T in Biblical prophesy of the End Times. But is that accurate?
Could America be Mystery Babylon of Revelation and Babylon the Great of Jeremiah and Isaiah?
I submit to you the Scriptures, you come to your own conclusions.
The Scriptures will follow (long quick list . . . sorry)
