America’s Provocation Of God: The Cost of Judgment - Bill Wilson
Printer friendly version
By Bill Wilson, KIN Senior Analyst
WASH—Aug 30—KIN—In the wake of one of the most powerful storms to ever hit the American mainland, insurance actuaries are already trying to calculate the cost of Katrina, currently estimating between $19-25 billion, but the cost of judgment upon the United States is far greater and veiled to the eyes of actuaries as well as to most Americans and even to most Christians.
Until the secular humanism revolution in the early 1900’s, natural disasters and wars were regarded by men of God as judgments upon the nation for unrepentant sin. An earthquake, a tornado, a hurricane, an outbreak of disease, even wars, such as the Civil War, was regarded as the judgment hand of God. In fact, many were called “Acts of God” even in legal papers such as insurance documents. Pastors would call their congregations to prayer and fasting. Presidents, such as Washington and Lincoln called the nation to prayer and fasting from time to time.
Today, if anyone in the clergy dare merely suggest that God’s judgment may be upon the nation, they are verbally tarred and feathered with such words as “crack theology,” “religious zealots,” “religious fanatics,” or worse—and this is from the Christian community. Many of today’s seminary sanitized theologians prefer to not believe that God would judge a nation for the sins of leaders or individuals. And many of them refuse to admit a connection between the spirit world and the physical world, the intersection of which is prophecy.
But the cost of judgment on America will soon be even obvious to the blindest eye.
