Judgment of the Leaders

The Voice of Jeremiah’s rebuke: Rush Limbaugh, Glen Beck, Bill O’Reilly, Sean Hannity, Mark Levin, and multitudes of their imitators—America’s “wise” men and “truth detectors”—“espousers of truth”—spew on and on that “the truth will set you free”—but their truth and wisdom does not set you free! Their truth and wisdom does not release you from the bondage of your sin, and it does not open your spiritually blind eyes! Thus it does not bring light into your dark world! 

So, America, what about these wise men that you have put your trust and faith in, these philosophers, these scholars, these brilliant debaters of this world’s great affairs? They lead you astray to your own destruction! They lead you to the U.S. Constitution rather than to the Bible! They lead you to Conservatism rather than to Christianity! They lead you to George Washington and Ronald Reagan rather than to God! America, soon, the LORD will make them all look foolish and show their wisdom to be useless nonsense”![1] 

The Voice of Jeremiah’s plea: O America, you are lost in your search for truth and wise answers to your plight, because you search in all the wrong places! Limbaugh, Beck, O’Reilly, Hannity, Levin, and others like them—the philosophers, the debaters, and experts of this age—bring nothing to you but human wisdom! They are wise in their own estimation;[2] their truth is made up of nothing but the brilliant ideas of man! And God will destroy their brilliant ideas for they are nothing but foolishness to Him![3] 

Thus says the LORD: For it is written, I will baffle and render useless and destroy the learning of the learned, and the philosophy of the philosophers, and the cleverness of the clever, and the discernment of the discerning. I will frustrate and nullify and discard the understanding of the experts and scholars, and bring them to nothing! I, the Sovereign Lord have spoken!”[4] 

The Voice of Jeremiah’s rebuke: America, your “espousers of truth” spew on and on that you are a great nation, but you are not a great nation! You believe that you belong to God, but you have abandoned Him! You belong to the devil![5] 

Thus says the LORD: America, woe to you because you call evil good and good evil, because you put darkness for light and light for darkness, because you put bitter for sweet and sweet for bitter! Woe to you because you are wise in your own eyes and prudent and shrewd in your own sight! I, the Sovereign Lord have spoken![6]

The Voice of Jeremiah’s plea: O America, overwhelming chaos is coming to your nation! [7] No matter where I look, the LORD shows me ruin and devastation! Even the stable mountains will shake! Only God’s mercy can keep you from complete destruction! [8] But the Lord Jesus Christ, the Savior of the world, specializes in hopeless cases. He breaks the power of sin and He sets the prisoner free from the bondage of his sin. [9] Repent, mourn your sin, turn back to God, and be saved before it is too late!

The Voice of Jeremiah’s rebuke and prophecy: Yes, America you are doomed! You are collapsing because you speak out against the LORD and refuse to obey Him! You even provoke Him to His face! Everything you say and do is against the LORD; you openly insult God Himself! America, the very look on your faces gives you away; your prejudices will be held against you! You sin as openly as the people of Sodom did; you don’t even try to hide it. 

America, because of your wickedness you are doomed! And you have brought it on yourselves! What you have done to others will now be done to you; you will get exactly what you deserve! America, your moneylenders oppress the people, and your creditors cheat you. Your childish leaders oppress and mislead you; they send you down the wrong path! You are so deceived and confused that you do not know which way to turn. But know this, America, all will be well with the righteous and godly in your land! They will enjoy the rich reward they have earned!

America, the LORD is ready to state His case against you; He is ready to judge you and bring your elders and leaders to judgment. He makes this accusation.

Thus says the LORD:  ”You elders and leaders have ruined America! You have plundered the land and its people, and your houses are full of what you have stolen from the poor. How dare you crush my people, grinding the faces of the poor into the dust? You have no right to take advantage of the poor! I, the Sovereign LORD Almighty, have spoken!”[1] 

The Voice of Jeremiah’s plea: America, you are an evil unrepentant nation and the judgment hand of Almighty God is coming down upon you! Repent before it is too late—from your “king,” to your “leaders,” to the least of you! Repent and turn back to God. Who knows, God may withdraw His burning anger and relent concerning the calamity which He is about to bring down upon you![2]

The Voice of Jeremiah’s rebuke and prophecy: America, what utter fools are your political leaders, officials, spiritual shepherds, and wise men! The counsel of the wisest counselors of your “king” has become witless—they give him and the people stupid advice! How do they dare tell you that they are the successors to the world’s past scholars and wise men? Their best counsel to the people of America is stupid and wrong. Yet in their arrogance they still boast of their wisdom! 

“King” of America, people of America, where are those clever advisers of yours? Let them tell you, if they are so wise, what the LORD Almighty plans, what the LORD of Heaven’s Armies is going to do to America. The leaders of America—those who are supposed to be the cornerstones of the nation—are  deluded, confused fools. They are supposed to lead the nation, but they have misled it—they have led the people astray.

 The LORD has mingled a spirit of perverseness, error, and confusion within America and made all your clever advisers give baffling advice. He has sent a spirit of foolishness on them, so all their suggestions are wrong. As a result, America, you do everything wrong and stagger like a drunk slipping on his own vomit.

This is what the Sovereign LORD says: The princes of America are complete fools; the advice of your “king’s” wisest advisers has become stupid. How can you men say to your “king,” “I am a son of the wise, a son of ancient kings”? Well then, where are your wise men? Please let them tell you, and let them understand what the LORD of hosts has purposed against America. The princes of America have acted foolishly, the princes of America are deluded; those who are the cornerstone of her people have led America astray. The LORD has mixed within her a spirit of distortion; they have led America astray in all that it does, as a drunken man staggers in his vomit.[1] 

The Voice of Jeremiah’s plea: America, you are an evil, unrepentant nation the judgment hand of Almighty God is coming down upon you! Repent before it is too late—from your “king,” to your “leaders,” to the least of you! Repent and turn back to God. Who knows, God may withdraw His burning anger and relent concerning the calamity which He is about to bring down upon you![2]
