I believe if we don't start to at least give glory to God in all HIS judgments because of western civilization turning it's back on HIM, things are only going to get worse. We can say this one or that one, or this group or that group are scheming and doing all this..........but do we realize it is the LORD who is giving the west into their hands and why? Evil is and always has been trying to work evil under cover of darkness to try and gain the upper hand, there is nothing new under the sun with that, but we can and used to be protected from it by the LORD. How did God judge Israel in her apostasy? By giving her into the hands of her enemies who were always round about her. These things happened unto Israel and were written down for an ensample and admonition to the church.
