FORTY TWO

Dallas, Texas

Pastor Jack Madison had a free evening, due to a cancelled counseling session, which allowed him to look more extensively into the 223 prophetic verses that his Dad had asked him to study during his last visit. After a very long night of study, prayer and research, he wished he hadn’t done so. He didn’t sleep well in the remaining hours of the night.

The next morning he decided to expand his study of the prophecies by asking his senior accountability group to also look into the verses. The six men in the group were all involved in leadership in Jack’s church in the Park Cities suburb of Dallas. Four had seminary training. All were students of the Bible. None were prepared for what their Pastor was about to ask them to do.

“Men, I didn’t sleep well last night….”

“Worried about Congress may do, or just unconfessed sins, Pastor?”, asked Scott Banks, the comic member of the group.

Always ready for a laugh, Pastor Jack joined in the general mirth, “No, Scott, but if I think of some to confess, you’ll be the second one I call, after the Lord, of course….OK, seriously though, my sleep deprivation was caused by a late night Bible study. My dad, you’ve met him and you all know why he’s in prison, gave me several prophecy verses to study. I finally had a free evening and I did so, though I frankly wished I hadn’t.”

“Why’s that, Pastor?”

“You’ll soon see. Here’s a list for each of you of 223 verses. All of them are about a single end times nation. Very powerful, called the hammer of the whole earth. Extremely rich, living in luxury. Influential, referred to as the great voice. The nations of the world stream there to meet. Has a large Jewish population. A supporter of Israel. There are thirty clues in those verses to what the Bible calls the mystery of the identity of this end times nation. Mystery Babylon.”

“Very interesting, Pastor. Sounds like you may have solved the mystery already?”

“It might sound that way, but I haven’t come to any final conclusions. Yet, that is. I want you each to take the list, look up and read the verses, do whatever research you have time to do, then let’s discuss it next week. I’m very interested in hearing what you come up with. This subject is obviously important, otherwise God wouldn’t have devoted so many verses to it, and they may answer the question that many American Christians have asked.”

“What question is that, Pastor?”

“Is America in the Bible? If it is, what happens to it in the last days?”

Thus the members of Jack’s most trusted church leaders were given what would prove to be a very challenging assignment. None would ever forget how they started down this path pursuing the contemporary application of prophecy.
