There is one sin that will bring about the fall of America. Guaranteed. It seems to be occurring, right now, today.
Some may think that sin is the murder of over 63 million innocents since 1973, by the violence of abortion Others may think that it's America's rebellion against God's design for marriage, the in-your-face-sign of which was the recent flying of the so-called Pride Flag taking center stage over the American flag in June 2023, at the White House which included a celebration of the rebellion. Flying that flag was a signal that the movement has conquered the nation. That's what a conquering army does, it takes down the flag of the conquered and hoists their flag.
But, as evil as those sins are, they aren't the one sin which guarantees our destruction. The sin is named in the shortest book in the Old Testament one that details that one heinous sin and it does so in three sections. So, let's go there, to the tiny book of Obadiah, listen, and learn.
The prophet gives four reasons for the fall of the nation of Edom whom God says He will "make small among the nations" because of that one sin:
1. Edom made treaties with those who wanted to destroy Israel.
2. Edom commuted acts of violence against Israel.
3. Edom gloated over the defeat of Israel as it stood with its allies who came against Jerusalem.
4. Edom was inhumane to those Jews who fled the destruction of Jerusalem,"cutting them down" or "imprisoning" them.
That's it. That's the one sin that will "make America small among the nations:" to side with those who come against the apple of God's eye, Israel. We call it antisemitism.
