Did the U.S. Election Delay Great Tribulation?
The provocative title may raise some eyebrows. But I think it’s a valid question. During the the past years of accelerating evil/tyranny in the United States, many people asked me whether I thought we were living in the “last days.” Their deep concern was this:
“If America loses its freedom and global influence, what’s to stop the emergence of a one world government and an era the Bible describes as Great Tribulation before the triumphant return of Jesus Christ?”
I told them I didn’t know the answer.
But I do have some thoughts and I welcome yours.
The Prophet Speaks–Again
Much is happening in our world as we pray for the Olympics, watch stock markets tumble, see Kamala Harris pick a radical VP, and intercede against a larger war between Iran and Israel.
My heart has always loved the Jewish prophets for their clarity on good and evil. That national wisdom seems to be carried on in some political commentators such as the late Charles Krauthammer and Dennis Prager.
Benjamin Netanyahu, Israel’s prime minister, spoke truth to a joint session of Congress in Washington, D.C. on July 24, 2024. I have previously shared his prophetic perspective on world events.

We Need A Revival In Education
I have closely followed the pro-Hamas demonstrations on college campuses in the U. S. and around the world the past few weeks. I’ve taught in many YWAM schools worldwide and serve as a professor at Faith International University in Tacoma, Washington. (FIU houses the only seminary in the state of Washington.)
In all the schools in which I’ve been privileged to speak. I’ve never witnessed law-breaking demonstrations of any type. Judeo-Christian-based professors and students try to move in the “opposite spirit” during times of tension. That includes intercessory prayer and promoting reconciliation and healing among opposing viewpoints.
I will share my thoughts on the protests next week. First, let’s ponder what has happened in education to spawn the current chaos.
