Protestant America on the verge of divine retribution

We are almost three weeks beyond the Vatican’s prayed-for year of mercy. What will happen now? What kind of upheaval will the world experience? Wild fires exponentially increasing, all started by the Vatican behind-the-scenes soldiers? More aviation fatalities by their soldiers? More shootings by their soldiers?
How will it all converge after this next Halloween? When the Lutheran Church signs off on all the treaties of reconciliation with the Roman Church this October 31st, how aggressively will Rome work to have all the remaining denominations surrender their Protestantism, their Bible, their God? What kind of crises will Rome bring upon America to encourage the Protestant denominations to sign up for the Vatican’s millennium of peace for Gaia? How soon will the Reformation give up the ghost and do Mass with those ghostly priests of paganism?
 
The Vatican soldiers’ Spiritual Exercises is making haste to spread throughout all the Protestant churches, leavening them all to talk to “God” without the sinner ever having been soundly convicted, conscience “scourged” (Heb. 12:6), and heart humbled by the Law of God. The question needs to be raised, “Why would a holy God, who has always required His Son to be our humbling Mediator, the “Stone of stumbling”, and “Rock of offense” (1 Pet. 2:8); how could the Holy One ever speak to sinners still proud and unconvicted of sin, without their first weeping at the feet of the Lord Jesus for their sins like Peter did in Gethsemane? Has God changed since the fall of Adam and Eve, and since the denial of Peter? Neither Father or Son have changed an iota.
 
“…the Father of lights, with whom is no variableness, neither shadow of turning.” (Jas. 1:17).

“Jesus Christ the same yesterday, and to day, and for ever.” (Heb. 13:8).
 
“For I am the LORD, I change not.” (Mal. 3:6).
 
“He that turneth away his ear from hearing the law, even his prayer shall be abomination.” (Prov. 28:9).

If Christ can’t be a humbling Saviour from sin and shame, then He will be no Saviour at all. This is the offense of the cross and of righteousness by faith. The refusal to be stricken in the heart is what drove Cain to cover his sins with sugar and spice and everything nice, then to murder and to begin a rebellion in the land of Nod for a world of murderers and violence. Christ must do for the sinners what they cannot do for themselves; He must put down pride and self-sufficiency or He must leave them to the dogs of hell, who they chose.
 
“What man of you, having an hundred sheep, if he lose one of them, doth not leave the ninety and nine in the wilderness, and go after that which is lost, until he find it?... I say unto you, that likewise joy shall be in heaven over one sinner that repenteth, more than over ninety and nine just persons, which need no repentance.” (Luke 15:4,7).
 
“The publican, standing afar off, would not lift up so much as his eyes unto heaven, but smote upon his breast, saying, God be merciful to me a sinner. I tell you, this man went down to his house justified rather than the other: for every one that exalteth himself shall be abased; and he that humbleth himself shall be exalted.” (Luke 18:13,14).
 
Mount Zion doesn’t move. The sinner must move.
 
“Thus saith the LORD, The heaven is My throne, and the earth is My footstool: where is the house that ye build unto Me? and where is the place of My rest? For all those things hath Mine hand made, and all those things have been, saith the LORD: but to this man will I look, even to him that is poor and of a contrite spirit, and trembleth at My word.” (Isa. 66:1,2).
 
“For thus saith the high and lofty One that inhabiteth eternity, whose name is Holy; I dwell in the high and holy place, with him also that is of a contrite and humble spirit, to revive the spirit of the humble, and to revive the heart of the contrite ones.” (Isa. 57:15).
 
An unrepentant, un-contrite, sinner without a Saviour finds no accord with the holy Father; therefore he finds accord with other sinners. The only “God”who the Spiritual Formation votives hear speak to them is another God beside the Father or the Son. It’s the God who will lead them to kill all who insist on keeping the commandments of the written word, the holy scriptures.
 
“They shall put you out of the synagogues: yea, the time cometh, that whosoever killeth you will think that he doeth God service.” (John 16:2). During the Dark Ages, the same “God”ordered the martyrdom of tens of millions of Christians in the name of Christianity. That “God” still speaks for Jehovah by eclipsing Jehovah. He has never stopped being the father of lies.
“Ye are of your father the devil, and the lusts of your father ye will do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and abode not in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaketh a lie, he speaketh of his own; for he is a liar, and the father of it.” (John 8:44).
 
“He who smote the people in wrath with a continual stroke, he that ruled the nations in anger,... How art thou fallen from heaven, O Lucifer, son of the morning! how art thou cut down to the ground, which didst weaken the nations! For thou hast said in thine heart, I will ascend into heaven, I will exalt my throne above the stars of God: I will sit also upon the mount of the congregation, in the sides of the north: I will ascend above the heights of the clouds; I will be like the most High.” (Isa. 14:6,12-14).
 
“And he shall speak great words against the most High, and shall wear out the saints of the most High, and think to change times and laws: and they [the saints] shall be given into his hand until a time and times and the dividing of time.” (Dan. 7:25).
 
“And I saw one of his heads as it were wounded to death; and his deadly wound was healed: and all the world wondered after the beast.
And they worshipped the dragon which gave power unto the beast: and they worshipped the beast, saying, Who is like unto the beast? who is able to make war with him?
And there was given unto him a mouth speaking great things and blasphemies; and power was given unto him to continue forty and two months.
And he opened his mouth in blasphemy against God, to blaspheme His name, and His tabernacle, and them that dwell in heaven.
And it was given unto him to make war with the saints, and to overcome them: and power was given him over all kindreds, and tongues, and nations.” (Rev. 13:3-7).
 
“Forty and two months” equals“a time and times and the dividing of time”, which is the same as “a time, and times, and half a time” (Rev. 12:14), and which equals “a thousand two hundred and threescore days” (Rev. 12:6). The prophecies of Daniel 7, Revelation 12, and Revelation 13 speak of the same power denouncing the blasphemy upon God in heaven, and killing His children on earth. That 3 ½ year, 42 month, 1,260 day period of prophetic time equals the same quantity in literal years, i.e. 1,260 years. It speaks of the European Dark Ages under Roman Catholicism from 538 AD to 1798. The encouragement to patiently endure and the only hope to lighten that dark era was God’s promise to resurrect the righteous by faith in Jesus, and His retribution on the wicked. The saints patiently and bravely clung to the promise of justice that came from Jeremiah 30:16.
 
“He that leadeth into captivity shall go into captivity: he that killeth with the sword must be killed with the sword. Here is the patience and the faith of the saints.” (Rev. 13:10).
 
But, in Revelation 13 there comes a second persecuting power. Verse 11 begins with a beast with lamb-like horns coming up out of a peaceful, stable place, “the earth” (verse 11). This is in contrast with the unstable, dangerous, stormy “sea” (verse 1) like the first beast came from.
 
“And I stood upon the sand of the sea, and saw a beast rise up out of the sea, having seven heads and ten horns, and upon his horns ten crowns, and upon his heads the name of blasphemy.” “And I beheld another beast coming up out of the earth; and he had two horns like a lamb, and he spake as a dragon.” (Rev. 13:1, cf Dan. 7:2; Rev. 13:11).
 
That second beast changes drastically from representing a peaceful government and a righteous seat of authority to speaking like the dragon, the same which gave the blasphemous first beast “his power, and his seat, and great authority” (Rev. 13:2). The dragon is the ancient “serpent, called the Devil, and Satan, which deceiveth the whole world.” (Rev. 12:9).
 
Satan deceives the lamb-like horned second beast, which came up after the first beast was mortally wounded by the Bible sword of the Spirit (Ephesians 6:17; Hebrews 4:12), and went into captivity. The only world power coming up in 1798, then dominating the planet, was Protestant America, which rose up from the wilderness of the New World. Protestant America as a nation was born nursing on the Bible. But, its Constitution has been wholly Protestant with freedoms for the people and separation of religion and state, and a constant sore to the slowly returning Papal power. The papacy could never regain its power and wealth while Protestant Americans stood in its way, soaking up all the prosperity that Jehovah rained upon them, on the obedient and the disobedient. Protestant America had the blessing of heaven, so long as the children of the Reformation remained faithful to the covenant vows their Reformation forefathers made with Jehovah. If their hearts would remain stayed upon the fatherly discipline and affection of their God, He would continue to protect and provide for them.
 
But, if they would confide in other gods and pour their hearts out to them, then Jehovah would eventually cut them off from His dowry. And has Protestantism left the God of their fathers? Aren’t they returning to the gods of paganism when they sign all the treaties with Rome? When the Protestant Americans bow low before the “God” of Spiritual Formation, and he steals their hearts away from their heavenly Father of Law and grace, as delineated by the Reformation, will the Reformation God of the Bible let their infidelity pass without a protest? He never has in the past.
 
“But thou didst trust in thine own beauty, and playedst the harlot because of thy renown, and pouredst out thy fornications on every one that passed by; his it was.
And of thy garments thou didst take, and deckedst thy high places with divers colours, and playedst the harlot thereupon: the like things shall not come, neither shall it be so.
Thou hast also taken thy fair jewels of My gold and of My silver, which I had given thee, and madest to thyself images of men, and didst commit whoredom with them,
And tookest thy broidered garments, and coveredst them: and thou hast set Mine oil and Mine incense before them.
My meat also which I gave thee, fine flour, and oil, and honey, wherewith I fed thee, thou hast even set it before them for a sweet savour: and thus it was, saith the Lord GOD.
Moreover thou hast taken thy sons and thy daughters, whom thou hast borne unto Me, and these hast thou sacrificed unto them to be devoured. Is this of thy whoredoms a small matter,
That thou hast slain My children, and delivered them to cause them to pass through the fire for them?” (Eze. 16:15-21).
 
Jehovah, the only true God, the God of Protestantism, will not stand aside and let Satan take over His children without His execution of justice. When the churches are fully involved with the Mass and Spiritual Formation, when their unabased pride is petted and excused by the familiar spirits of Spiritual Formation speaking in the name of God, then we will see how angry Jehovah can get. Wars, natural catastrophes, deception and delusion on an order that has never been permitted to be so freely practiced on humanity will Jehovah bring to bear on the apostate, no longer protesting prophet, which during the 16th and 17th centuries had originally protested against the raging first Beast. Both Protestant false prophet and then the revived papal first Beast will be burned with the tormenting wrath of God.
 
“Thou hast also committed fornication with the Egyptians thy neighbours, great of flesh; and hast increased thy whoredoms, to provoke Me to anger.
Behold, therefore I have stretched out My hand over thee, and have diminished thine ordinary food, and delivered thee unto the will of them that hate thee, the daughters of the Philistines, which are ashamed of thy lewd way.
Thou hast played the whore also with the Assyrians, because thou wast unsatiable; yea, thou hast played the harlot with them, and yet couldest not be satisfied.
Thou hast moreover multiplied thy fornication in the land of Canaan unto Chaldea; and yet thou wast not satisfied herewith.
How weak is thine heart, saith the Lord GOD, seeing thou doest all these things, the work of an imperious whorish woman.” (Eze. 16:26-30).
 
“Wherefore, O harlot, hear the word of the LORD:
Thus saith the Lord GOD; Because thy filthiness was poured out, and thy nakedness discovered through thy whoredoms with thy lovers, and with all the idols of thy abominations, and by the blood of thy children, which thou didst give unto them;
Behold, therefore I will gather all thy lovers, with whom thou hast taken pleasure, and all them that thou hast loved, with all them that thou hast hated; I will even gather them round about against thee, and will discover thy nakedness unto them, that they may see all thy nakedness.
And I will judge thee, as women that break wedlock and shed blood are judged; and I will give thee blood in fury and jealousy.
And I will also give thee into their hand, and they shall throw down thine eminent place, and shall break down thy high places: they shall strip thee also of thy clothes, and shall take thy fair jewels, and leave thee naked and bare.
They shall also bring up a company against thee, and they shall stone thee with stones, and thrust thee through with their swords.
And they shall burn thine houses with fire, and execute judgments upon thee in the sight of many women: and I will cause thee to cease from playing the harlot, and thou also shalt give no hire any more.” (Eze. 16:35-41).
 
“And the ten horns which thou sawest upon the Beast, these shall hate the whore, and shall make her desolate and naked, and shall eat her flesh, and burn her with fire.” (Rev. 17:16).
 
“For the LORD’s portion is His people; Jacob is the lot of His inheritance.
He found him in a desert land, and in the waste howling wilderness; He led him about, He instructed him, He kept him as the apple of His eye.
As an eagle stirreth up her nest, fluttereth over her young, spreadeth abroad her wings, taketh them, beareth them on her wings:
So the LORD alone did lead him, and there was no strange god with him.
He made him ride on the high places of the earth, that he might eat the increase of the fields; and He made him to suck honey out of the rock, and oil out of the flinty rock;
Butter of kine, and milk of sheep, with fat of lambs, and rams of the breed of Bashan, and goats, with the fat of kidneys of wheat; and thou didst drink the pure blood of the grape.”
 
“But Jeshurun waxed fat, and kicked: thou art waxen fat, thou art grown thick, thou art covered with fatness; then he forsook God which made him, and lightly esteemed the Rock of his salvation.
They provoked Him to jealousy with strange gods, with abominations provoked they Him to anger.
They sacrificed unto devils, not to God; to gods whom they knew not, to new gods that came newly up, whom your fathers feared not.
Of the Rock that begat thee thou art unmindful, and hast forgotten God that formed thee.
And when the LORD saw it, He abhorred them, because of the provoking of His sons, and of His daughters.
And He said, I will hide My face from them, I will see what their end shall be: for they are a very froward generation, children in whom is no faith.
They have moved Me to jealousy with that which is not God; they have provoked Me to anger with their vanities: and I will move them to jealousy with those which are not a people; I will provoke them to anger with a foolish nation.
For a fire is kindled in Mine anger, and shall burn unto the lowest hell, and shall consume the earth with her increase, and set on fire the foundations of the mountains.
I will heap mischiefs upon them; I will spend Mine arrows upon them.
They shall be burnt with hunger, and devoured with burning heat, and with bitter destruction: I will also send the teeth of beasts upon them, with the poison of serpents of the dust.
The sword without, and terror within, shall destroy both the young man and the virgin, the suckling also with the man of gray hairs.” (Deut. 32:9-25).
 
“Thine heart was lifted up because of thy beauty, thou hast corrupted thy wisdom by reason of thy brightness: I will cast thee to the ground, I will lay thee before kings, that they may behold thee.
Thou hast defiled thy sanctuaries by the multitude of thine iniquities, by the iniquity of thy traffick; therefore will I bring forth a fire from the midst of thee, it shall devour thee, and I will bring thee to ashes upon the earth in the sight of all them that behold thee.
And never shalt thou be any more.” (Eze. 28:17-19).
 
“And the Beast was taken, and with him the false prophet [second beast (Rev. 13:12-15)] that wrought miracles before him, with which he deceived them that had received the mark of the beast, and them that worshipped his image. These both were cast alive into a lake of fire burning with brimstone.” (Rev. 19:20).
