God's Charge Against America

Hear the Word of the Lord America,

Because the Lord has a charge to bring against you who live in the land.

'There is no faithfulness, no love, no acknowledgment of God in the land.

There is only cursing, lying and murder, stealing and adultery;

They break all bounds, and blood shed follows blood shed.

Because of this the land mourns, and all who live in it waste away;

The beasts of the field and the birds of the air

And the fish of the sea are dying.

But let no man bring a charge, let no man accuse another,

For your people are like those who bring charges against a priest.

You stumble day and night, and the prophets stumble with you.

So I [God Almighty] will destroy your mother [America]--

My people are destroyed from lack of knowledge.

Because you have rejected knowledge, I also reject you as My priests

[Those who preach the Word of God incorrectly and incompletely];

Because you have ignored the Law of your God,

I will also ignore your children.

The more the priests [Preachers] increased,

The more they sinned against Me;

[America has a multitude of preachers]

They exchange their Glory for something disgraceful.

They feed on the sins of My people and relish their wickedness.

And it will be: Like people, like priests.

[They gather around them Preachers who will tell them

What their itching ears want to hear.]

I [God Almighty] will punish both of them for their ways

And repay them for their deeds.

They will eat but not have enough;

They will engage in prostitution but not increase,

Because they have deserted the Lord to give themselves to prostitution,

To old wine and new, which take away the understanding of My people.

They consult a wooden idol and are answered by a stick of wood.

[America consults their IDOLS; anyone who give them advice, except God.

The value of the advice they get might as well be from a stick of wood.]

A spirit of prostitution leads them astray;

They are unfaithful to their God.

They sacrifice on the mountaintops and burn offerings on the hills,

Under the oak, poplar and terebinth, where the shade is pleasant.

[Americans sacrifice their lives in pursuit of material things, vain things,

Without understanding and following God's Covenant.]

Therefore your daughters turn to prostitution

And your daughters-in-law to adultery.

I will not punish your daughters when they turn to prostitution,

Nor your daughters-in-law when the commit adultery,

Because the men themselves consort with harlots

And sacrifice with temple prostitutes--

A people without understanding will come to RUIN!

[In America today, many men have prostrated themselves

Before pornography and other illicit plagues of the soul;

And many of it's women have become prostitutes and adulterers.]

'And do not swear as surely as the Lord lives!'

The Americans are stubborn like a stubborn heifer.

How then can the Lord pasture them like lambs in a meadow?

America is joined to idols; leave him alone!

Even when their drinks are gone, they continue their prostitution;

Their rulers love shameful ways.

A whirlwind will sweep them away,

And their sacrifices will bring them shame. (Hosea 4)

Because of America's multitude of sins:

'Then I [God Almighty] will go back to My place

Until they [America] admit their guilt.

And they will seek My face; in their misery they will earnestly seek Me.'

(Hosea 5:15)

America's sins engulf them; they are always before Me. (Hosea 7:2)

America sows to the wind and reaps the whirlwind. (Hosea 8:7)

The days of punishment are coming,

The days of reckoning are at hand.

Let America know this.

Because your sins are so many and your hostility so great [toward God],

The [true] prophet is considered a fool, the inspired man a maniac.

The [true] prophet, along with My God, is the watchman over America,

Yet snares await him on all his paths, and hostility in the House of his God.

They [the people of God] have sunk deep into corruption,

As in the days of Gibeah.

God will remember their wickedness and punish them for their sins.

(Hosea 9:7-9)

Today, the world is raging against God, rushing toward oblivion. (Psalm 2)

America is being ground to powder because of her SIN against God.

Save yourself from this Corrupt Generation! (Acts 2:40)

As God has written, so shall it be! Hallelujah! Maranatha!

Father, Your Kingdom come, Your will be done, on earth as in Heaven!
