There seems to be some confusion among Christians as to
their responsibility to their nation. Many have commented to me that they have
read the last book of the Bible and we win, so there is no use considering the
current state of our nation or the direction of the world toward the one world
order. They tell me that the end time is set in stone and there is nothing that
Christians can do to change it. They say that the fallen nature of our nation is
just part of the end time condition of mankind, so accept it and go along with
it. Forgive me for being so bold, but I believe this attitude is against
everything we are instructed to do in the Bible. End times watch.
While the prophetic end times may be upon us, we are not
supposed to sit around holding hands singing Kumbya and hoping for the best. And
I believe strongly that while we as mere humans cannot stop the march of
prophecy, we can determine our place in it. We as Christians are supposed to be
salt and light to this dark and dying world. We have been instructed from the
time of Moses through John the Revelator to be world changers. End times
watch. Jesus Christ tells us over and over again our duties as Christians.
The Great Commission found in Acts 1:8, Matthew 28:19 and in Mark 16:15 tells us
to “Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature.” Jesus
specifically tells us in Luke 19:13, “Occupy till I come.”
Occupying isn’t just sitting around waiting for God’s
predestined plan to unfold. In the context of what Jesus said, the Greek
dictionary says occupy means “to busy oneself with, to trade.” The English
dictionary says an occupier is one who “takes possession and control, such as a
military invasion.” In order to occupy in this nation, where the Lord saw fit
that the people choose its leaders and government, one must be clear on his
mission. And to do that, one must know the Bible. God’s word gives us all the
tools and the Holy Spirit gives us the spiritual gifts to occupy. To do so, we
must understand His word as it is meant, not as it is taught by deceivers who
loosely translate the word of God to their advantage. End times watch!
God brought the Israelites out of slavery and established
them in their own land. He told them that they must follow His statutes
otherwise they would face severe judgment. They did not obey Him and they were
scattered across the earth. America was dedicated in covenant with God as
Christians came to occupy it. Generations of Christians before us were a beacon
of the light of Christ to other nations. Now many Christians seem to believe
that occupying means just “being”. And they don’t understand that their nation
is falling apart because they are not involved. We must encourage one another to
be active occupiers—and to not criticize those who do by saying they are
judgmental and hateful. Let us be the solution not the problem. End times
watch!
