King of Babylon Rising:
Reflections on the Inaugural Address
First, a review of basic spiritual truth and wisdom that lifts her voice in the street, begging to be heard:
If you are attuned to the Spirit, you will be preserved by the Spirit. If you are attuned to the flesh, you will be fooled by the flesh. (Spirit attunement comes only by death to fleshly attunement.) If your spirit becomes seduced by your flesh, you will be deceived by your own spirit, falsely believing yourself to be attuned to the Spirit. This is antichrist.
Flesh is flesh. Spirit is Spirit. Flesh can never become Spirit. It can only imitate Spirit. Spirit-baptized flesh remains flesh, becoming an imitation of the Spirit. This is antichrist.
Good is not God. The spirit of good remains locked under the spirit of death. (“In the day you eat of it, you will surely die.”) Good flesh does not make godly Spirit. Good policy does not make spiritual revival. A boastful fleshly claim to “be for God” shortly leads to the deceived spirit claim to “be God.” This is antichrist.
There is no victor in the war between good and evil, except death. There is no victor in the conflict between nationalism and globalist socialism except tyranny. There is only a victor in the war between good flesh and the Spirit. The onus is on the believer to determine who that victor will be, whereby to prove the veracity of his reborn existence. Will the believer finally yield his allegiance to the goodly antichrist flesh of his nation, or to the godly Spirit of the eternal Holy Nation from above where the true Christ sits on the right hand of the Father?
At this hour two amazing parallel phenomena arise to face and prove the [lack of] eternal substance of the church in America. The first is the relentless exposure of the delusional anti-prophetic spirit of immorality protection and fakery operating throughout the mega prophetic streams (IHOP-KC, MorningStar, Bethel) as well as throughout many other high profile evangelical/charismatic churches (Gateway) and media outlets (DayStar).
This delusion is based in the rejection of the fundamental wisdom just cited above. It is antichrist traced to the adulterous baptizing of carnal culture-redeeming worldviews with the spirit of prophecy, a form of spiritually erecting idolatrous abominations in the Holy Place leading to desolation. These exposures fulfil Jesus’ warning that if the church harbors false immoral prophets that He would come and fight against them with the sword of His own mouth (Rev. 2:16) and that He will further cast the immoral seducers into the Tribulation if they do not repent (2:22-23).
The other phenomenon is the rise of a veritable king over America, an end time nation and leader whose description nearly fully matches that of the final Babylon in Revelation and the Old Testament prophets. Indeed, this king is arising after the image of Nebuchadnezzar, who said,
“Is this not [America] the great, which I myself have built as a royal residence by the might of my power and for the honor of my majesty?”
Consider some key selective quotes from the recent inaugural speech and see if you have heard them before biblically:
The Golden Age of America begins right now. From this day forward, our country will flourish and be respected again all over the world. We will be the envy of every nation,…
Our top priority will be to create a nation that is proud, prosperous and free. America will soon be greater, stronger and far more exceptional than ever before….
Those who wish to stop our cause have tried to take my freedom and indeed to take my life just a few months ago. In a beautiful Pennsylvania field, an assassin’s bullet ripped through my ear, but I felt then and believe, even more so now, that my life was saved for a reason. I was saved by God to make America great again….
It is my hope that our recent presidential election will be remembered as the greatest and most consequential election in the history of our country….
And by invoking the Alien Enemies Act of 1798, I will direct our government to use the full and immense power of federal and state law enforcement to eliminate the presence of all foreign gangs and criminal networks bringing devastating crime to U.S. soil, including our cities and inner cities…..
We will do it at a level that nobody has ever seen before.
Next, I will direct all members of my Cabinet to marshal the vast powers at their disposal ….We will be a rich nation again, …. With my actions today,….
I will immediately begin the overhaul of our trade system … to enrich our citizens.…. It will be massive amounts of money pouring into our treasury coming from foreign sources.
….Like in 2017, we will again build the strongest military the world has ever seen. We will measure our success not only by the battles we win, but also by the wars that we end, and perhaps most importantly, the wars we never get into.
My proudest legacy will be that of a peacemaker and unifier. That’s what I want to be. A peacemaker and a unifier. I’m pleased to say that as of yesterday, one day before I assumed office, the hostages in the Middle East are coming back home to their families….
America will reclaim its rightful place as the greatest, most powerful, most respected nation on earth, inspiring the awe and admiration of the entire world….
Above all, my message to Americans today is that it is time for us to, once again, act with courage, vigor and the vitality of history's greatest civilization…..
….And we will pursue our manifest destiny into the stars, launching American astronauts to plant the stars and stripes on the planet Mars.
The ambition is the life blood of a great nation, and right now, our nation is more ambitious than any other. There's no nation like our nation.
…If we work together, there is nothing we cannot do and no dream we cannot achieve.
Many people thought it was impossible for me to stage such a historic political comeback, but as you see today, here I am….In recent years, our nation has suffered greatly, but we are going to bring it back and make it great again. Greater than ever before. We will be a nation like no other, full of compassion, courage and exceptionalism. Our power will stop all wars and bring a new spirit of unity to a world that has been angry, violent and totally unpredictable.
America will be respected again and admired again, including by people of religion, faith and goodwill. We will be prosperous. We will be proud. We will be strong, and we will win like never before. We will not be conquered. We will not be intimidated. We will not be broken, and we will not fail.
From this day on, the United States of America will be a free, sovereign and independent nation. We will stand bravely. We will live proudly. We will dream boldly, and nothing will stand in our way, because we are Americans. The future is ours, and our Golden Age has just begun….
Did you read these quotes with spiritual eyes? Did you hear them with spiritual ears? Did you notice the excesses of language concerning unbridled national ambition, pride, receipt of foreign wealth, executive power, invincibility, incomparability, ability to collectively do anything imagined even to venturing the stars, the envy and focus of the entire world, the joint personal political resurrection and escaping of the assassin’s head wound, and most of all, the chief ambition of being hailed as the world’s peace maker, citing the Middle East itself? Did you catch the prophetic significance of the Golden Age claim?Compare now the speech excerpts you just read with these scriptures:
Da. 2:37 You, O king, are the king of kings, to whom the God of heaven has given the kingdom, the power, the strength, and the honor; 38 … You are the head of gold.
Hab. 2:4 “Behold the proud, His soul is not upright in him;…5 …He is a proud man, And he does not stay at home. … He gathers to himself all nations And heaps up for himself all peoples. 6 …“Woe to him who increases What is not his—how long?” [like Greenland? Canada? Panama?]
Gen: 11:4 And they said, “Come, let’s build ourselves a city, and a tower whose top will reach into heaven, and let’s make a name for ourselves; …” 6 And the Lord said, “Behold, they are one people, and …this is what they have started to do, and now nothing which they plan to do will be impossible for them.
Ob. 1:3 The arrogance of your heart has deceived you, …4 Though you make your home high like the eagle, Though you set your nest among the stars, From there I will bring you down,” declares the Lord.
Da. 8:23 And in the latter period of their dominion, When the [woke?] wrongdoers have run their course, A king will arise, strong-faced and skilled in intrigue. 24 And his power will be mighty, … And he will … be successful and do as he pleases; …25 ([KJ21] And through his policy) … he will make himself great in his own mind, ([KJ21] and by using peace shall destroy many).
Rev. 18:3 For all the nations have fallen because of the wine of the passion of her sexual immorality, and the kings of the earth have committed acts of sexual immorality with her, and the merchants of the earth have become rich from the excessive wealth of her luxury.”…7 To the extent that she glorified herself and lived luxuriously, … she says in her heart, ‘I sit as a queen and I am not a widow, and will never see mourning.’ … 9 “And the kings of the earth, who committed acts of sexual immorality and lived luxuriously with her, will weep and mourn over her … 10 … saying, ‘Woe, woe, the great city, Babylon, the strong city! …11 “And the merchants of the earth weep and mourn over her, because no one buys their cargo any more— … 14 The fruit you long for has left you, and all things that were luxurious and splendid have passed away from you and people will no longer find them. 15 The merchants of these things, who became rich from her, will stand at a distance … 16 saying, ‘Woe, woe, the great city, she who was clothed in fine linen and purple and scarlet, and adorned with gold, precious stones, and pearls; 17 … And every shipmaster and every passenger and sailor, and all who make their living by the sea, … 18 … were crying out … saying, ‘What city is like the great city?’ 19 …in which all who had ships at sea became rich from her prosperity, …!’
This is by no means all I could quote. But is the reader at last able to clearly see how this inaugural speech precisely mirrors the key ideas highlighted in this collective of prophetic passages? (To be sure, I have skipped over many phrases from these passages only because those elements have not yet been made apparent. But they will come to pass.)
The prophetic church steeped in literal immorality is also steeped in spiritual immorality, deceived by its own carnal passion for a human culture that is destined to fail and come to full judgment and destruction.
This inaugural speech and its immediate subsequent executive actions is indeed a historic “turning point” in American and world history as the prophets are eager to claim. But it is not the turning point that they think it is.
The idea that a single American ruler is able to “marshal” the “vast powers” of the executive branch of the “greatest nation on earth” (to “do as he pleases”) with the ability to simultaneously command the attention of “all the kings and merchants of the earth” such that every world political and economic leader feels compelled to talk to and negotiate with him, is so utterly contrary to the principle of balanced power on which the American system was founded, yet precisely satisfies scripture’s description of the last world ruler and his kingdom.
This is a turning point of fulfilment that the culture-blinded prophets are loath to contemplate. As long as the prophets and intercessors believe this imbalance of power is “God’s answer” to spiritually “turning around America,” even though it’s so contrary to the constitutional spirit they champion, they are good with it. But a top-down forced change in national policy is not a sign of “revival.” (True revival breaks out from the grass roots. Yet half the country still believes in and voted for “woke” to continue!)
The prophets and intercessors fail to recognize that what is enforceable as “good” by carnal executive authority is just as easily reversible to become the enforcer of evil! Either way, it is the path to open tyranny. And that is exactly the precedent that has now been set in America by this election.
Let me be clear. This article does not claim that the newly elected president is the final man of sin. What we are saying is that he demonstrates all the traits necessary to be that man, and that, even if he is not, his election and the force of his traits as expressed through this speech have now opened the dreaded door that sets the precedent for that final false prophet and man of sin to arise.
It should be very clear to anyone with spiritual discernment that, apart from a completely unexpectable change in world history, we have now been shown the office and the kingdom through which the final Babylon and its world ruler are to come forth.
Ponder and prove these observations most carefully. Grasping your own true direction in the Lord pertaining to this culture may depend on their accuracy.
