Rick Pearson outlines how the nation is at a prophetic crossroads in groundbreaking new book, ‘America’s Josiah Moment’
Rick Pearson’s ‘America’s Josiah Moment’ details Scripture’s warning for the nation
NEW YORK — A mere casual review of American culture could lead any observer to the same conclusion: America is on a swift spiritual decline. This cultural spiral, while extremely concerning, has led author and host of ProphecyUSA, Rick Pearson, to one clear explanation, one that was laid out thousands of years ago in prophetic Scripture: America is the fulfillment of the biblical prophecy of Babylon the Great, a portent of the end of days. Pearson’s groundbreaking new book, “America’s Josiah Moment: An Endtime Reprieve of Things to Come,” details the nation’s role in the end days, analyzes the multitude of prophecies regarding the rapture, and outlines the Church’s next steps to make an eternal impact on a misguided culture.
“The number one point of contention regarding biblical prophecy of future events is the time sequence of when they will happen,” noted Pearson in a recent op-ed. “However, if you spend some considerable time delving into the Word, as I did in my latest book, America’s Josiah Moment, you can see that not only does America perfectly fulfill the description of Babylon the Great, but we are smack in the middle of a prophetic convergence.
“‘Convergence’ is defined by ‘the act of moving towards union or uniformity,’ and that is exactly what is happening now. The depictions of the end days are aligning perfectly with what is happening in today’s society. The world has watched America dominate global trade, finance a war machine second to none, and fulfill her role as the richest, most powerful empire of the world. Through the Abraham Peace Accords, President Trump is trying to bring peace between the sons of Abraham, Ishmael and Isaac. But this act can only temporarily delay what biblical prophets have already foretold — the wheel is in motion, the stage is being set and biblical prophecies are rapidly being fulfilled. But are current-day prophecies converging with Scripture? Are we being warned that on the day of her destruction, Babylon will look like and act like Sodom and Gomorrah?
“The Expositor’s Bible Commentary admits it troubles scholars that Jeremiah 50 and 51 predict Babylon’s destruction — yet when Cyrus conquered Babylon in 539 BC, the city fell without a battle, without destruction. That kind of sudden, fiery judgment never happened to the Babylon of old. Which means the Babylon described by Jeremiah and Isaiah — a Babylon ‘abundant in treasures,’ ‘dwelling on many waters,’ and destined to become ‘a burnt mountain’ — must still await a future fulfillment. Could this be a prophetic picture of America? Could this be a prophetic convergence of Scripture?”
Pearson continued, “There is something at work that common sense and logic cannot defeat. It’s a spirit of anti-Christ, anti-Jew, anti-Jesus and anti-Judeo-Christian protocol. Antisemitism, immorality and humanism have permeated modern culture. This spirit has already surrounded the globe and infiltrated every level of government, education, industry, sports and religion.
“So, what does this mean for us as a nation? When does God finally say, ‘Enough is enough?’ It means that we are in our Josiah moment — the moment of pause, of respite, before the Lord’s ultimate judgment on our nation and the world. The convergence of current events and biblical prophecy is happening at breakneck speed. Let’s be clear: judgment, swift and true, is barreling towards our fallen world. Now is the time to reignite our fellow Americans for Christ and make ourselves ready for God’s escape plan that is literally out of this world.”
