Re: What is Plan B?

A few years back my brother-in-law and I were talking about "end times." We both happen to be pre-trib dispensatiionalist. Despite some of the current teaching that the bear is Russia, the lion is England, and the eagle is the U.S.A. neither of us can see where the USA is mentioned in prophecy, unless it has lost its individual identity and is part of the one world government. We also thought that perhaps by then the US may have passed its zenith and has joined a list of "has been" nations which have no real world wide affect or influence.

This is not meant to start another for or against preterism debate. It's just a comment/observation on the future of this country.

I prefer Plan 9 from outer space.

Sam,

Is it patriotic blasphemy to say that the only comparison I see to America in the Biblical end times is Babylon?

I love my country, but what is said of Babylon after it falls would apply to no other country as well as it could apply to modern day America. I don't think that fall will hapen before the Rapture though.

I say again, if it wasn't for Christians, there would be no America.
