Did Christ know of this North American Continent? ... Sure he did. Did He know this great nation would be Christian from its beginning? ... Of course he did. Is it possible that this nation, the greatest Christian super power of all time, known to Jesus Christ, was never mentioned, indicated, or foretold in the Bible? Many Christians today have not been exposed to what our forefathers believed and understood. Whether through God's purposeful blindness or due to modern-day revisionists intense desire to rewrite our Christian American history, the fact remains, we have lost our true identity, our heritage, our Israel roots. This book clearly shows that America (Zion) is the land set aside by God Almighty to be the place of regathered Israel. Sermons and documents by the Founding Fathers testify to their belief that they were the Israel people of the latter days, and that the Old Testament prophecies were being fulfilled in their undertakings. This book presents an amazing sermon by Rev. F. E. Pitts of Nashville, Tennessee to a joint session of Congress in 1857 (four years before the Civil War) in which he named the UNITED STATES as the last great power (Stone Kingdom of Daniel 2). He offers scripture after scripture proving that America is The New Jerusaleum (Zion) spoken of by the prophets to be established before the return of Christ. The last half of the book contains excerpts from Our Great Seal and Abrahamic Covenant by E. Raymond Capt, noted Christian author, archaeologist, and historian. With the advantage of living in this latter time, he is able to shed additional light on this subject not fully known by our early American ancestors. What a sobering responsibility we have as his "light bearing" servant people! Our pilgrim fathers called themselves the "Seed of Abraham," "God's Servants," "Children of Jacob," "His Chosen." They built our nation upon the laws of God and the teachings of Christ, and it became the greatest nation in history!

The USA in Bible Prophecy is a compilation of historical sermons, essays, quotes and legends pertaining to American Exceptionalism and the future spiritual destiny of the United States according to scripture. It was apparently edited by E. Raymond Capt, a Bible teacher who is rightly called the Father of Modern Am-Brit Israelism. The book consists of six parts. The first is a sermon entitled "Our Great Country Foretold in Holy Scriptures" that F.E. Pitts delivered before the US Congress in 1857. This is historically interesting and reveals the theological roots of American Exceptionalism as understood before the Civil War. It's a rather fanciful interpretation of scripture that proves much of American Exceptionalism is nothing more than a kind of Replacement Theology with America taking the place of Israel rather than the Church. Pitts actually mocks the idea that Jews would ever return to the Holy Land to establish a Jewish state. This is followed by two "commentaries" by Capt (actually excerpts from some of his books) and a second sermon by F.E. Pitts also delivered to Congress entitled, "The Battle of Armageddon," that locates that famous future final conflict from Revelation in North America as the final showdown between Constitutional Republicanism and Monarchism. Pitts prophetically makes Russia America's future adversary in this final conflict. There is an excellent portion devoted to Russia's place in prophecy that includes some resources and word study material I haven't seen before. Very good. But again, absent is any idea of a reborn Israel in the Holy Land. This is not only more replacement theology but Pitts and his modern apologists would be shocked to learn that his interpretation was embraced by the Latter Day Saints (Mormons) who incorporated it into their own bizarre Last Days endgame scenario. But I digress. Capt's two commentaries have some value, especially the excerpt from "Our Great Seal." Here is one of the best expositions on Isaiah 18 I have ever read -- very informative and well worth reading -- and some more history on American Exceptionalism and our Christian heritage in the second essay "Abrahamic Covenant." But Capt always leads his readers back to his stubborn Am-Brit Israelism. He suggests that Am-Brit Israelism was a part of our Founding Father's thinking but he's on thin ice here. Just as Pitts was wrong about Israel, Capt (and America's Christian founders if they really believed it) is wrong here about Am-Brit Israelism (full disclosure: I am a skeptic on that point). Then there is an article by John Grady, M.D., entitled "George Washington's Vision and Prophecy for the United States of America." I have seen this on the internet before but have yet to find it in any biography of our first President. Did George Washington really have such a vision? Well if he did, it falls in the realm of a non-inspired, extra-Biblical vision.Yet the entire episode could be pure legend. The vision itself clearly depicts something akin to the Civil War (America's first judgment) but the later events it purports to prophecy (the second and third judgments) are vague enough to mean almost anything. I prefer Isaiah 18 to this vision which may have taken place shortly after the cherry tree was hacked down. The book concludes with some interesting and historically relevant quotes about our Christian heritage. Taken as a whole, this is a 3 star book. But there are flashes of 4 and 5 star historical and prophetic relevance that makes it a valuable resource for people who research this kind of material. But this book is not appropriate for new Christian converts or those with a weak understanding of scripture or American history.Product details

The USA in Bible Prophecy A Sermon Preached To The US Congress In 1857 FE Pitts 9780934666497 Books Reviews
It is utterly impossible to believe that the greatest nation in the history of the world, unique in its origin, begun upon the principles of Christ and the laws of God, is not mentioned in the Bible. Rev. F.E. Pitts knew that numerous prophecies told of the rise of a great Christian-Israel nation in the latter days, and he delivered an amazing sermon before the United States Congress in 1857 concerning this very subject. Very inspiring! Other relevant books on this important subject are Stone Kingdom by Raymond Capt and The Light and the Glory (true history of America) by Peter Marshall Jr.
