WHILE AMERICA SLEEPS

   "And at that time shall Michael stand up, the great prince which standeth for the children of thy people:  and there shall be a time of trouble, such as never was since there was a nation even to that same time:  and at the time thy people shall be delivered, every one that shall be found written in the book.  And many of them that sleep in the dust of the earth shall awake, some to everlasting life, and some to shame and everlasting contempt.  And they that be wise shall shine as the brightness of the firmament; and they that turn many to righteousness as the stars for ever and ever." (Daniel 12: 1-3)


   "And there were voices, and thunders, and lightnings; and there was a great earthquake, such as was not since men were upon the earth, so mighty an earthquake, and so great.  And the great city was divided into three parts, and the cities of the nations fell:  and great Babylon came in remembrance before God, to give unto her the fierceness of his wrath.  And every island fell away, and the mountains were not found." (Revelation 16: 18-20)


   "And there shall be signs in the sun, and in the moon, and in the stars; and upon the earth distress of nations, with perplexity; the sea and the waves roaring; men's hearts failing them for fear, and for looking after those things which are coming upon the earth:  for the powers of heaven shall be shaken.  And then shall they see the Son of man coming in a cloud with power and great glory." (Luke 21: 25-27)
  
   Suddenly and without warning, the nation of Turkey went from a democratic republic to a dictator-police state within 24 hours.  That's how quickly a permanent change came to the citizens of Turkey.  They will never again be free:  free to leave the nation, nor free to return.  All of their rights have been suspended.  The only law of the land is now the law of one man, Recep Tayyip Erdogan.  They are now prisoners in their own land.
   Is Turkey now a model or a preview of the great tribulation that is coming upon the earth when one man will rule the whole world?
   While America sleeps, evil is rising and raging all over the world.
   The Middle East is burning. 
   European nations will soon become Islamic States, one nation at a time.
   The Islamic State is at war with the world, but nations worldwide are not at war with the Islamic State.  Neither are nations arising in coalitions to fight this terrorist regime. 
   NATO is doing nothing.
   The European Union is doing nothing.
   The United Nations is doing nothing.
   The United States is also doing nothing.
   Millions of American people get it:  we know what is happening.  And we know that all these things must come to pass before the return of Jesus Christ our Lord.
  On the contrary, millions of Americans do not get it:  they do not know the truth of current events.  They are blind and they are following blind people.  They have legs, but they do not stand.  Voices they have, but they do not speak.  Nothing bothers them.  They still have their baseball games, movies, music, and politicians to speak for them and to lead them down the Yellow Brick Road to meet the Wizard behind the curtain.  Evil is rising all over the world, but they do not see it. 
   Neither does the return of Christ mean anything to them, for they are sleeping with the enemy---while not knowing that their rejection of Christ is their acceptance of Satan.  Having legs, they do not stand for Christ.  Voices they have, but they do not speak for Christ.
   For there is a freedom, given by God, that is common to all people: 
                                       the right to remain silent.
   When the Islamic States reaches America from coast to coast, then they will get it.  Maybe they will get Christ during the time of darkest evil.  May God have mercy.
   Suddenly and without warning, Christ will return.
      "And if it seem evil unto you to serve the LORD, choose you this day whom ye will serve; but as for me and my house, we will serve the LORD." (Joshua 24: 15)
