Hear this, America…

“Therefore I still contend with you, declares the Lord,and with your children’s children I will contend.

For cross to the coasts of Cyprus and see, or send to Kedar and examine with care; see if there has been such a thing.  Has a nation changed its gods, even though they are no gods?

But my people have changed their glory for that which does not profit.

Be appalled, O heavens, at this; be shocked, be utterly desolate, declares the Lord,

“for my people have committed two evils:
they have forsaken me, the fountain of living waters,
and hewed out cisterns for themselves,
broken cisterns that can hold no water.”

Jeremiah 2:9-13

A Note From the Author, Vic Bilson

I am not a prophet and I don’t claim to have special revelation from God.

I am a student of God’s Word and a seeker of truth.

The Jeremiah Project is my attempt to examine Scripture, history and the world around us—and encourage others to seek God’s truth for themselves.

Read About the Jeremiah Project

The situation in America and across the globe today is similar and deteriorating rapidly.

My heart breaks as it seems many of our churches have slipped into a kind of mass psychosis—weak, wavering, and easily swayed. So few take the Word of God seriously anymore, and most ignore the prophetic Scriptures altogether. It’s as if many are reading from a redacted Bible, reshaping and rewriting God’s truth into something more comfortable, something that fits their preconceived ideas while conveniently discarding the rest.

But, be warned,

Wherever the Word of God is hidden or ignored, there will be certain destruction.

Do not be deceived: God cannot be mocked. A man reaps what he sows. [Galatians 6:7]

Partly because the priests in Israel had failed to teach God’s Word to the people, Israel suffered. There was no faithfulness, no love, and no acknowledgment of God in the land. Rather there was only cursing, lying, murder, stealing and adultery.

Sound familiar, America?

Like in ancient Israel, the problem in America today is the people are guilty of forsaking God and attempting to create their own paths to heaven with broken cisterns.

 

A mass psychosis perpetrated by Satan has infected our world and spread throughout the world turning people’s lives upside down and their gaslit minds to mush. 

We are witnessing in our lifetime Satan’s attempt to take the saints captive [Revelation 13:10]. 

And, he is not content with only the lost already living in darkness… it’s the light he wants to extinguish: the Church and the Word of God.

I’m stunned by how little awareness many people have about the world around them—and how easily they accept the censorship of critical information in the mass media. When the gatekeepers decide what you’re allowed to hear, the result is predictable: people become uninformed, misinformed, confused, and afraid.

None of this is accidental. The patterns are too consistent, the messaging too coordinated, and the outcomes too convenient for those who want greater control over society. That’s why I’m speaking up. When manipulation becomes normalized, silence becomes consent—and I refuse to be silent.

The Bible tells us, “My people are destroyed from lack of knowledge.” (Hosea 4:6).

WAKE UP Christian!

 

I Believe God is Speaking to us Today through Bible Prophecy

If you have ears to hear and eyes to see, God is speaking to you through His prophets and the words contained in Bible Prophecy.

He is calling out to His chosen people to be a holy remnant faithful to Him and His calling. He has given us the owners manual, if you will, and told us how life will be when we follow it.  We don’t need to be overcome by fear or dread of the enemy because Jesus has already conquered the enemy. Jesus only asks us to, “Take up your cross and follow Me”.

Just as God spoke to His people through the prophet Jeremiah in 608 BC, I believe His words are as relevant today as they were then…

Thus says the LORD, “If you will not listen to Me, to walk in My law which I have set before you, to listen to the words of My servants the prophets, whom I have been sending to you again and again, but you have not listened; then I will make this house like Shiloh, and this city I will make a curse to all the nations of the earth.” – Jeremiah 26:4-6

The rest is history, as they say.
Domination, destruction, and slavery.

Why?

And when the people ask, “Why has the Lord our God done all this to us?” you will tell them, “As you have forsaken me and served foreign gods in your own land, so now you will serve foreigners in a land not your own.” – Jeremiah 5:19

They did not hallow God’s name, His decrees and judgments. Instead, they allowed their community to become desecrated with foreign gods and dug their own cisterns in their own way. I believe we stand again at the precipice of God’s judgment today as the Church is once again being invaded by foreign gods and Christians are busy digging their own cisterns.

The results, too, will be the same… domination, destruction, and slavery.

Or… we can choose God.

If my people, who are called by my name, will humble themselves and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, then will I hear from heaven and will forgive their sin and will heal their land. [2 Chronicles 7:14]

 

So, What Is The Solution?

Quite simple… Jesus Christ (Yeshua)

Jesus answered, “I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.” – John 14:6

You want to know the truth?
You can if you choose to.
You will if you hold to (follow, continue to obey) Christ’s teaching.
It will set you free.

Jesus said, “If you hold to my teaching, you are really my disciples. Then you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free.” – John 8:31-32

If you are to make any sense out of what is happening in our decaying world today, you need to have truth backed up with knowledge and understanding (Hosea 4:6) of Bible prophecy, end times, history, world events, and the strategies Satan uses to enslave people.  Once you understand the root of our problem, you’ll better understand the solution.

What I am suggesting is that we can humbly acknowledge our sin, repent of those sins, and seek God’s way instead of our own (2 Chronicles 7:14).  Sadly, most people today love the darkness and do not want to come into the light (truth).  As most Americans are now living in darkness and refuse the truth, their consciences have been seared and like the brazen prostitute; they refuse to blush with shame (Jeremiah 3).

What is truth?, you might ask.

The satanic cultural marxist inspired lie of “Tolerance” – where God’s Word is not proclaimed because people fear insulting or offending others has so infiltrated America today that few people even recognize the destructive results that inevitably follow. These people do not understand what God says in prophetic Scripture and do not believe they will be judged for their disbelief.

Others have the propensity of rejecting objective truth with their relative truth.  Can something be true for me, but not for you? On one level, yes, something can be true for me but not true for you. For example, on the level of food preferences, something can be true for me but not true for you. However, on an objective level, something cannot be true for me and not true for you. For example 2 + 2 = 4 is true for you and it is true for me. We cannot choose whether or not we want it to be true.

If you’re one who has redefined sin using the tolerance yardstick or believe in relative truth, I guarantee you won’t like what you read here on the Jeremiah Project. I don’t claim to be politically correct, nor will I attempt to be so.  You may likely be offended by what you believe to be a narrow-minded, hate-filled, and intolerant viewpoint.

Praise God! That means your conscience may still be intact.

The fear of the LORD is the beginning of wisdom; all who follow his precepts have good understanding. – Ps 111:10

Those with good understanding of God‘s Word will follow God’s commandments.
Those who do NOT obey God and keep ALL His commandments have a poor and incomplete understanding of Scripture. If you understand God’s law and do not obey, you are still accountable for your actions.

Many today have replaced God’s Law with the laws of man, not too unlike the Pharisees of Jesus’ time. There are blessings for us today when we follow His law and there are curses for us today when we don’t (Deuteronomy 28). Spend some time and read Deuteronomy 4 through 30.  It explains the blessings we can expect when we follow God’s commands and the explicit curses that will befall us when we reject His commands. 

I’ve heard people ask, “If God is a loving God, why does He permit the suffering we see in our world today?”  That question is clearly answered in Deuteronomy 28.

I am not suggesting that you are “saved” by following God’s commandments (Mosaic Law) or that you are condemned by not following them (that would be a salvation by “works”). Thankfully, if you have accepted Christ as your Savior, your salvation is assured and guaranteed by the presence of the Holy Spirit in your life.

Therefore no one will be declared righteous in his sight by observing the law; rather, through the law we become conscious of sin. – Romans 3:20

But, I do believe the law exposes our sin and does not shield us from the consequences of our actions. It’s not your eternal salvation in question here… but it’s the outcomes you experience in this life. 

God does NOT want to bring judgement on America,
or anybody in the world for that matter.
He has a better plan.

“For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, saith the LORD, thoughts of peace, and not of evil, to give you an expected end.”- Jeremiah 29:11

The grand experiment in freedom called America is crumbling before our eyes as we are allowing the anti-God forces of collectivism to creep in to every part of society. Our founders must be turning over in their graves as the vast majority of Americans are accepting this antichrist agenda – and yes, that includes most of the so-called Christian churches in America.

Just as the alcoholic will not accept his sickness until hitting bottom, it would appear our society has not yet hit bottom as we continue in our degeneration.

Mark my words… you may have a comfortable life today, but that is all about to change, and believe me… it’s not pretty. And, there’s nobody to blame but ourselves.

It doesn’t have to be that way though.
But, we must first get our own house in order and get right with God.

• We’ve got to humble ourselves,
• We’ve got to pray,
• We’ve got to seek God’s face, and
• We’ve got to (repent) turn from our wicked ways

.
In the meantime, if we continue this path we’re presently on… God will judge.. We will suffer in the mayhem and destruction of everything we know.  And… your broken cisterns won’t help you.

Alexander Hamilton once described America as a “grand experiment” and I believe God inspired the founders of America as they set up this country we now call the United States of America.  The founders enshrined their belief in God in the founding documents of America and strove to honor His word in our Constitution.  The people were blessed and we witnessed the birth and growth of what was to become the greatest modern day country on the face of the earth.

This sentiment was captured in the patriotic song written by Katharine Lee Bates in 1893, “America the Beautiful”.

O beautiful for spacious skies,
For amber waves of grain,
For purple mountain majesties
Above the fruited plain!
America! America!
God shed his grace on thee
And crown thy good with brotherhood
From sea to shining sea!

Wake up Christians!

And do this, understanding the present time. The hour has come for you to wake up from your slumber, because our salvation is nearer now than when we first believed. – Romans 13:11

Things That Matter
There are some who might criticize some of my articles because they focus on issues of politics, modern culture, and recently Coronavirus. But, I say these are things that matter and have a spiritual dimension to them.
