Rick Pearson calls for a return to biblical principles in a divided America
Rick Pearson: ‘It’s only the return to biblical truth that offers a shred of hope for our future’
NEW YORK — America finds itself at a defining cultural moment. While many attribute the nation’s growing tensions to economic shifts, public health crises or political polarization, ProphecyUSA Founder and author of the book, “America’s Josiah Moment: An Endtime Reprieve of Things to Come,” Rick Pearson, believes the root cause is spiritual. He argues that America’s departure from its biblical foundations has led to the confusion and division now shaping public life.
“Biblical scholars argue that America isn’t included in the Bible, but why would God not mention the most powerful nation ever to rise up in His name?” commented Pearson. “Latter-day Babylon the Great is a providential nation, raised up by God (Daniel 2:21). It’s a nation filled with God’s people, yet something shifts. The vast majority turn away from their biblical foundation. A deep division forms — on one side, those who remain faithful to the covenant, on the other, those who abandon it (Revelation 18:4). But it is the shedding of innocent blood that ultimately seals the nation’s fate.
“It’s time for us to wake up and acknowledge that America’s rejection of our scriptural framework has created this quagmire, and it’s only the return to biblical truth that offers a shred of hope for our future.”
Pearson has decades of scriptural insight, particularly as it applies to real-world geopolitics, as well as the ability to connect ancient patterns to modern-day America through his research and writings, including his latest two books, “The Coming Exodus” and “America’s Josiah Moment: An Endtime Reprieve of Things to Come,” which provide a prophetic framework that resonates with faith-driven audiences and a unique insight during such global uncertainty. In a media environment saturated with tactical and political analysis, Pearson provides interpretive clarity.
