History is at a great turning point. Two mutually antagonistic political systems are lining up for a final winner-takes-all showdown. Those two systems are the empire and the republic. They have been at odds for several hundred years. Since WWII the forces of the republic, in the form of the sovereign nation state, have been in the ascendancy, but through neglect and subtle sabotage the oligarchic forces of empire, reflected in global institutions such as the IMF and giant multinationals, has weakened the republican powers to the point of collapse. A final struggle is inevitable in the very near term. As the system draws closer and closer to collapse the danger increases significantly that the imperial faction will use their surrogate mercenaries to set off a nuclear war---most likely in the Middle East or Between India and Pakistan.
By those two opposed forces, locked in mortal combat, Satan the Devil has at his disposal the means to provoke WWIII. Or, from another angle, because of God’s mastery of every situation, we could say that Jehovah has the means to force the issue of His own sovereignty. At any rate, the fact that the issue of who rules the world is coming to a head in the human sphere is really just a reflection of what is going on in the invisible realm. Satan’s knowledge that his time is short is the reason the world is facing such a critical situation.
This is why the rationale of the apostasy is so mind-numbingly stupid. Never has the world been in such a mess as at the present moment. The trivial mistakes and lack of vision on the part of the Jehovah’s Witnesses does not nullify God’s prophetic word. Jehovah’s word is what determines the future, not the Watchtower’s interpretation of his word. And, as Jehovah’s premier prophet, Christ said that the entire world would suddenly, instantaneously, be gripped by a fear that would literally make men faint and that a situation would arise from which there was no human solution. The stage is set for that very scenario to take place. What else but the ultimate terror weapon could fulfill the prophecy that calls for humans to become faint with fear? If you thought the World Trade Center and Pentagon attacks were a shocker just consider the terror that would be evoked by the ominous mushroom cloud! Just a few backpack nuclear weapons going off anywhere in the world, let alone major population centers, and you will see a terror and panic that will defy description. The first thing that will happen is that the financial system will simply vaporize. It will be there one day and gone the next. You will run down to the corner automatic teller machine and it will say: “SORRY, OUT OF BUSINEES.” It will be as though someone suddenly turned the lights out and the world is plunged into total darkness. Then it will get interesting.
However, Jehovah God is the Savior of mankind---the faithful ones at least. To the present moment the world has not needed God’s salvation. That can all change in the blind of an eye as easily as one pushes a button on a television remote control. That’s why it is not wise to mock the Creator and persecute his people. We can very easily be brought to our knees in a hurry.
You should now have a better idea of how Jehovah is going to settle the score with the apostate and the ridiculer of his word, and how this verse will be fulfilled: “I also, for my part, shall laugh at your own disaster, I shall mock when what you dread comes, when what you dread comes just like a storm, and your own disaster gets here just like a storm wind, when distress and hard times come upon you. At that time they will keep calling me, but I shall not answer…”
