We had a clear choice this year via our US national election. I don’t think I have seen an election in my lifetime that the contrast was stronger. Our stunning choice should be a wake up call to just where we are on the prophetic timeline. Jesus warned us what the time period before his coming would look like.
Luke 17:26-30 (NKJV)
26 And as it was in the days of Noah, so it will be also in the days of the Son of Man: 27 They ate, they drank, they married wives, they were given in marriage, until the day that Noah entered the ark, and the flood came and destroyed them all. 28 Likewise as it was also in the days of Lot: They ate, they drank, they bought, they sold, they planted, they built; 29 but on the day that Lot went out of Sodom it rained fire and brimstone from heaven and destroyed them all. 30 Even so will it be in the day when the Son of Man is revealed.
As I sat there listening to the results roll in, I felt scripture wash over me flooding my mind. It was surreal. It allowed me to zoom out and see the big picture, what had we as a nation just done. There is more links between what is happening now and end times prophecy than I can list here. Lets compare the scripture above to what we just voted in favor of as a nation.
We voted for abortion on demand, the killing of millions of children in their mother’s womb. This is much like the evil cults of Noah’s and Lot’s time that would sacrifice their own children, yearly, to their “gods”. We are sacrificing our unborn for a lustful lifestyle (much like these ancient cults) and unburdened existence. “We wouldn’t want our daughter to be burdened with a baby.”
We voted for free contraceptives and recreational marijuana use. Basically promoting drug use and free sex for all, especially our youth. We know that both Noah’s and Lot’s days were marked by extreme promiscuity and drug use. The men that showed up outside Lot’s door wanted to have sex with the “new” men in town.
We voted for a strong homosexual agenda with our commander-in-chief, for the first time in history, opening supporting this sinful lifestyle. This was something that marked both the days of Lot and Noah, with the latter being the only time in history (except for present day) that homosexual marriage was legal.
Pause a moment and let that sink in…
…the men outside Lot’s house also wanted to partake in these sinful acts as well.
We voted again for the least transparent administration we have ever had. Deceptive to the core. One that has blatantly lied to the American people and committed acts of treason on several occasions. What was their reaction when caught? They laughed it off and we as a nation laughed along with them and moved on. Treason!, not the definition of “is” but treason. Not only has there been a lack of transparency but the reverse, active deception, has been immense.
We voted for a man of lawlessness, that disregards our current laws of bankruptcy to give unions funds and leaves stock holders empty-handed. He has demolished our home loan laws by forcing forgiveness of loans and leaving investors, again, empty-handed. He has ignored our constitution at every possible turn. The highest law of the land and the foundation we built this nation on.
We voted for a man who says one thing and does the exact opposite, time and time again, with nothing said about it.
We voted for the political party that voted to remove God from their platform three times!
They said NO to God three times!
Folks, step back and see the forest.
We are living in the days of Noah.
We are living in the days of Lot.
This was a huge sign for those that have their eyes open. And now things are accelerating, roadblocks have been removed.
It was said that “the church” must take a stand this election cycle to reclaim our nation, founded on God and His word.
Look that the result. We could not have had a clearer choice, two roads we could take, and which choice did our nation make? The road of Sodom. The road of Gomorrah. The road of depravity, anger, and hate. The road away from God.
No true born-again Christian could vote for this abomination and the path they are taking us down.
This was huge folks. We just passed the last exit. The harbingers have spoken. The protection of the Lord has been removed. We have not turned back to God in repentance, but have instead, stood in defiance of God and with the arrogance of man said “we don’t need God in our nation”.
We are hurling toward the tribulation, God’s judgement on this sinful world. For those of us that are awake, we must keep our eye fixed squarely at all times on Christ Jesus, our redeemer. Do not look back, do not look down, for the evil of this world is engulfing us. Time is… I almost said “Time is short.” but that does not express how close we are to Jesus Christ’s return for His bride.
The divided nation we see is biblical. It is the hardening of hearts and the strong delusion of the Lord.
Ephesians 4:17-19 (NIV1984)
Living as Children of Light
17 So I tell you this, and insist on it in the Lord, that you must no longer live as the Gentiles do, in the futility of their thinking. 18 They are darkened in their understanding and separated from the life of God because of the ignorance that is in them due to the hardening of their hearts. 19 Having lost all sensitivity, they have given themselves over to sensuality so as to indulge in every kind of impurity, with a continual lust for more.
2 Thessalonians 2:9-12 (NKJV)
9 The coming of the lawless one is according to the working of Satan, with all power, signs, and lying wonders, 10 and with all unrighteous deception among those who perish, because they did not receive the love of the truth, that they might be saved. 11 And for this reason God will send them strong delusion, that they should believe the lie, 12 that they all may be condemned who did not believe the truth but had pleasure in unrighteousness.
Every man and woman have made their choice, look at where we stand. Which path do you stand on? What a stark contrast we are. Good and Evil. But today evil is said to be good and good said to be evil.
Isaiah 5:20-24
New King James Version (NKJV)
20 Woe to those who call evil good, and good evil;
Who put darkness for light, and light for darkness;
Who put bitter for sweet, and sweet for bitter!21 Woe to those who are wise in their own eyes,
And prudent in their own sight!22 Woe to men mighty at drinking wine,
Woe to men valiant for mixing intoxicating drink,
23 Who justify the wicked for a bribe,
And take away justice from the righteous man!
24 Therefore, as the fire devours the stubble,
And the flame consumes the chaff,
So their root will be as rottenness,
And their blossom will ascend like dust;
Because they have rejected the law of the Lord of hosts,
And despised the word of the Holy One of Israel.
We must put 100% of our hope and faith in Jesus Christ, and no longer in our own actions or those of man, not even 1%. We must focus on the will of God and not on our own. Pray, and look up and lift up your head for your redemption draws near.
Luke 21:28 (NKJV)
28 Now when these things begin to happen, look up and lift up your heads, because your redemption draws near.”
Maranatha, Lord come quickly!

In Romans 10 Paul lays out how salvation is open to all, Jew and Gentile. He writes:
“For Christ is the end of the law for righteousness to everyone who believes.” – Romans 10:4-5
What he is saying is now it is not about works or how closely to a “T” you follow the law. But that it is through God’s gift of grace through faith in His Son, Jesus Christ. It is really that simple, and yet a hard step for some of us.
“That if you confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus and believe in your heart that God has raised Him from the dead, you will be saved.” – Romans 10:9
Christ is the narrow gate (Matthew 7:13-14), through faith in Him you will be saved. It is the only “works” that God requires for eternal salvation.
