Daniel 3:29 Therefore I make a decree, That every people, nation, and language, which speak any thing amiss against the God of Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, shall be cut in pieces, and their houses shall be made a dunghill: because there is no other God that can deliver after this sort.
At the center of both the good and the evil efforts on Nebuchadnezzar’s part stands the use of force, and we will soon discover that in our day we too are drifting closer to the same two extremes. Currently, persons who are tasked with governing the people, will sometimes use their power to try to force us to do that which is wrong, or what may violates one’s conscience. Currently, there are six states which require schools to teach a history and social science curriculum inclusive of LGBTQ+ people and identities.
They are California, Nevada, New Jersey, Colorado, Oregon, and Illinois. The word “Require” means that it has been mandated by law. That’s force! Conversely, there are several states including Florida that have moved to ban such teachings from their schools so as to protect the young and restless from indoctrinations on the topics in question. Thus, you have the ghost of Nebuchadnezzar floating around nowadays, where the force of law is being used to mandate both good and evil.
Therefore, America is being gradually divided into two extremes, as lawmakers on both sides of the aisle stake out their positions, and use the force of law to mandate that which they believe is right. This will then lead us to a place and time where, come election day, we might be facing a choice between two extremes.
Daniel 8:23 And in the latter time of their kingdom, when the transgressors are come to the full, a king of fierce countenance, and understanding dark sentences, shall stand up. 24 And his power shall be mighty, but not by his own power: and he shall destroy wonderfully, and shall prosper, and practice, and shall destroy the mighty and the holy people.
May God add His blessing to the study of His word. “Good night” and God bless!
