Therefore, let them give us two bulls, and let them choose one bull for themselves and cut it in pieces and lay it on some wood, but do not light a fire under it, and I will prepare the other bull, lay it on some wood, and not light a fire underneath it. And you call on the name of your gods, and I will call on the name of the Lord, and the God that answers by fire, let Him be God.” And all the people answered and said, “It is well spoken.”
I Kings 18:33-35 MEV He arranged the wood and cut the bull in pieces and laid him on the wood and said, “Fill four barrels with water, and pour it on the burnt sacrifice and on the wood.” He said, “Do it a second time,” and they did it a second time.

Good points, John. Although we deserve to be destroyed (America that is) I believe we will be severely chastened but not destroyed-at least for many years. Terry Bennet sees a future for America, so does Rick Joyner seeing revival and Bob Jones sees the church in 2060(although I’m not sure about America’s status in 2060). Even Mr Bakker has been building Morningside which I doubt would be being built to be destroyed in two years as it would not fulfill his vision for Morningside. Also John Paul Jackson saw a Mexico, USA, Canada currency-alliance called the Amero. (But of course, we go by The Bible.) So we may change but to say we will be destroyed I believe is premature. I believe that we are not Mystery Babylon and Revelation is difficult to understand regarding His timing. I agree we won’t have a west coast as Cali is too far gone(See Rick Joyner speak on this)and we will be split if we reject Israel but dreams have mislead me, many a time, and “not yet” is my opinion for America.
I bother to write this because we must change things through prayer. Some churches are so backsliden they are out of it and the ones fighting the fight/ calling out sin like Jim are getting beaten up. But where are those that are praying and doing spiritual warfare? We are doing right by saying what is wrong but few are fighting in prayer and doing the spiritual footwork to reclaim America. BTW I know Jim Bakker Ministries IS praying although sometimes it seems Jim is too overwhelmed by the evil-he has enough on his plate just telling the Truth to a worldwide TV audience.……But again, we all (or at least most)as American Christians are getting beaten up. (One great ministry doing this warfare BTW is Don Paul Ministries of Prophet.tv He is fighting the fight and explaining much to me about the victory and potential defeat of America.) As for myself, I, as an intercessor and prophet have gotten almost swallowed up with despair BUT God is now rising me up again and I believe the next movement will be to save America-and remember, “everyone” can be falling but through prayer it only takes the committed few to stand and see revival–so don’t look at the sorry status of the church, but pray, as Jim said, for the prophets and intercessors, and BECOME an intercessor, as those few are our final hope for America. I want to be one that stands in the end through praying and defeating the enemy. Even as a prophet of 16 years I have much to learn. BTW I’m not saying flying in a plane and being a causality of war like John Paul Jackson wrote, but to understand demonic principalities, powers etc and how to stand in proper authority and win the battles and war. I suggest to all saints not to look too much at Fox News and to not write off America. Apostles, prophets, prayer warriors, really any Christian that is close with God and that is willing to keep fighting IN FAITH/ EXTREME FAITH can save America in the long run… or at least for awhile.
Of all the arguments i have heard about voting for Mr. Trump yours are the most convincing. Then Zack telling about this MDAA thing I have to tell you back in 2011 I had a dream where my wife, and i went to a friend of mine since 1964 and ask him to hide us because the secret police were after us. He took us in, but turned us in the next day, because someone told them he was hiding us. This also contributes to why I believe it is to late for our nation.
I believe that we have already had our last call. I believe that GOD has said if depravity is what you want then depravity is what you get. That is why we have a choice of two immoral people Trump, and Hillary to choose from. That no matter what we do as a nation our punishment is at hand. That within two years we will be destroyed. I believe that there is a chance for our friends, and family still have a chance to repent as individuals, but as a nation we are done.
