People that read the book of Revelation might wonder who is Revelation chapter 17 and chapter 18 all about? For people who have a curious mind, Michael D Fortner supplies a lot of scripture and a lot of reasons for you to see Babylon is the United States of America.
chupapi muneno many of us we may look at the Book of Revelation and wonder who this mighty Babylon is. Who is this powerful country and city in the last days? Some prophets say it is Rome, some say Egypt and others say a whole host of things. I am not sure many American authors want to name the USA as Babylon for the sake of their reputation and ministry.
Michael boldly says why the USA is Babylon and used many scriptures and quotes from famous people to make his claim. One by one he goes through the other contenders for the role of Babylon and dismisses them with reason and logic.
Michael shows how the nation of the USA was founded on Godly principles and how far they have operated from those original ideals. He speaks with a heart that is heavy and shares how America is going to come into judgement and cease to be a great power in the world anymore.
Michael has not got anything against the USA. He hasn't got and axe to grind, and writes with compassion, and also a great prophetic understanding that America has finally gone to far down the slippery slope of unrighteousness for God not to act.
It is a sobering book and a clear trumpet sounding to the people of America.
