This week on Marking the End Times, I discuss my belief that America will likely have a diminished role to play in Bible prophecy events. What does the Bible say about America and the Last Days? Hitchcock concludes that the Bible is actually silent about the role of the United States in the End Times. He then discusses the implications of America’s absence in prophetic writings along with a compelling forecast for the future and your future.
In the subscriber version, I answer questions such as “Why doesn’t the gospel of John talk about the signs of the end times?” and “Why does God bind Satan for 1,000 years instead of just throwing him into the lake of fire?”

Mark cites Victor Davis Hanson’s “If Your Really Wanted to Destroy the United States“
Excerpt:
First, you would surrender our prior energy independence.
Reduce new gas and oil leases on federal lands to the lowest levels of any president in history. Cut back production at precisely the time the world is emerging from a two-year lockdown with pent-up consumer demand.
Make war on coal and nuclear power. Drain the strategic petroleum reserve to make the pain for consumers more bearable for midterm election advantage.
Cancel the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge oil and gas field. Block pipelines like the Keystone oil pipeline and the Constitution natural gas line.
Overregulate and demonize frackers and horizontal drillers. Ensure there is less investment for their exploration and production.
Make use of internal combustible engines or fossil fuel power generation prohibitively expensive. Achieve a green oil-dependency along the lines of contemporary Europe.
Second, print trillions of dollars in new currency as the lockdowns end, demand rises, and consumers are already saturated with COVID-19 subsidies. Keep interest rates low, well below the rate of inflation, as you print more money. Ensure that passbook holders earn no interest at the very time prices skyrocket to the highest per annum level in 40 years.
