The Destruction of America::"Behold, the name of the Lord cometh from far, burning with his anger, and the burden thereof is heavy: his lips are full of indignation, and his tongue as a devour-ing fire. And the Lord shall cause his glo-rious voice to be heard, and shall shew the lighting down of his arm, with the indig-nation of his anger, and with the flame of a devouring fire, with scattering, and tem-pest, and hailstones" (Isaiah 30:27,30).
"Yea, the stork in the heaven knoweth her appointed times; and the turtle and the crane and the swallow observe the time of their coming; but my people know not the judgment of the Lord" (Jeremiah 8:7).
America is going to be destroyed by fire! Sudden destruction is coming and few will escape. Unexpect-edly, and in one hour, a hydrogen holocaust will engulf America—and this nation will be no more.
It is because America has sinned against the great-est light. Other nations are just as sinful, but none are as flooded with gospel light as ours. God is going to judge America for its violence, its crimes, its backslid-ings, its murdering of millions of babies, its flaunting of homosexuality and sadomasochism, its corruption,its drunkenness and drug abuse, its form of godliness without power, its lukewarmness toward Christ, its rampant divorce and adultery, its lewd pornography, its child molestations, its cheatings, its robbings, its dirty movies, and its occult practices.
In one hour it will all be over. To the natural mind it is insanity to come against a prosperous, powerful nation and cry out, "It's all over! Judgment is at the door! Our days are numbered!" The church is asleep, the congregations are at ease, and the shepherds slumber. How they will scoff and laugh at this mes-sage. Theologians will reject it because they can't fit it into their doctrine. The pillow prophets of peace and prosperity will publicly denounce it.

The Book of Joshua is the sixth book in the Hebrew Bible and the Old Testament, and is the first book of the Deuteronomistic history, the story of Israel from the conquest of Canaan to the Babylonian exile.
In Jude 17-23 Jude shifts from piling up examples of false teachers from the Old Testament to a series of practical exhortations that flow from apostolic instruction. He preserves for us what may well have been part of the apostolic catechism for the first generation of Christ-followers. In these instructions Jude exhorts the believer to deal with 3 different groups of people: scoffers who are "devoid of the Spirit", believers who have come under the influence of scoffers and believers who are so entrenched in false teaching that they need rescue and pose some real spiritual risk for the rescuer. In all of this Jude emphasizes Jesus' call to rescue straying sheep, leaving the 99 safely behind and pursuing the 1.

6. did you know?
he word “miracle” is
derived from the Latin word miraculum
meaning “something wonderful.” Simply
defined, a miracle is an event or action that
contradicts known scientific laws and that
can be explained only as an act of God.
Miracles recorded in the Bible can be
classified in the following way: power over
nature, power over disease, power over
death, and power over demons. Bible scholar
Herbert Lockyer claims that a “study of Bible
miracles will prove that the Lord is
triumphant over all human disorders,
whether physical, mental or nervous; over all
cosmic forces, on land or sea, organic and
inorganic; over the spiritworld represented
by the devil, demons, and death.”*

“This is what the Lord says: „Restrain your voice from weeping and your eyes from
tears, for your work will be rewarded,‟ declares the Lord. „They will return from the
land of the enemy. So there is hope for your future,‟ declares the Lord. „Your
children will return to their own land‟” (Jeremiah 31:16, 17, NIV).
“This righteousness from God comes through faith in Jesus
Christ to all who believe” (Romans 3:22, NIV).
“Lord, I have heard of your fame; I stand in awe of your
deeds, O Lord. Renew them in our day, in our time make
them known; in wrath remember mercy” (Habakkuk

R ead the passage below from Matthew12:38-42 and discuss
how Jesus‟ answer to the Pharisees might inform your answers in
the What Do You Think? section. What was Jesus saying in His
answer? “Then some of the Pharisees and teachers of the law
said to him, „Teacher, we want to see a miraculous sign from you.‟
“He answered, „A wicked and adulterous generation asks for a
miraculous sign! But none will be given it except the sign of the
prophet Jonah. For as Jonah was three days and three nights in
the belly of a huge fish, so the Son of Man will be three days and
three nights in the heart of the earth. The men of Nineveh will
stand up at the judgment with this generation and condemn it; for
they repented at the preaching of Jonah, and now one greater
than Jonah is here. The Queen of the South will rise at the
judgment with this generation and condemn it; for she came from
the ends of the earth to listen to Solomon‟s wisdom, and now one
greater than Solomon is here.‟”

R ead the following passage from Ellen White then write down what this means in
your life today. “What condescension it was on the part ofChrist, through His messenger,
to work this miracle to satisfy hunger! Again and again since that time, though not
always in so marked and perceptible a manner, has the Lord Jesus worked to supply
human need. If we had clearer spiritual discernment we would recognize more readily
than we do God‟s compassionate dealing with the children of men” (Prophets and Kings,
p.241). What this means for my life today: ________
