Read THE WARNING A Novel of America in the Last Days (The End of America Series Book 2) Online
Authors: John Price
“Yes, sir, I think I do.”
“Likewise, do you have any idea
how much trouble
you will be in if you are identified as its
author?”
“Yes, again, sir, I think I do, which is why I haven’t used
my name.”
“Wise, very wise. How do you plan to use it?”
“Congressman Nation, we have similar supporters. Real
Americans. True, authentic patriots, who are not willing to suffer the loss of
their country, willingly, that is. They are prepared to make sure that it goes
viral
across the internet to
millions
, ultimately.”
“Don’t you think there is a very real chance that this
document will lead to
violence
? Possibly
even
widespread
violence? You seem to
invite it, in fact, in your final paragraph.”
“I
certainly
hope
so, sir. Otherwise, the Communists in charge will not only win, but they will
destroy
this once great nation. Sir, I’m
not asking you to do anything, or even to say anything, we just wanted you to
be fully informed, as one of the few leaders in DC that we respect,
before
the lid blows off this boiling
cauldron and American patriots take back the country.”
“We? You say
we
?
How widespread is your support for what I assume is an
armed insurrection
? That
is
what you’re proposing, is it not?”
“Congressman, you’ve shown me great honor by letting me
visit you and in reading this document. For your sakes, and for ours, let’s
terminate
this discussion at this
point. What will be, will, in fact, be. Thank you, sir.”
As they parted Congressman Nation knew that America, which
was already on the brink of bloody violence, was about to turn a corner. What
would appear behind that up-coming corner he could not at that point in time
even guess. Nor did Congressman Nation have any way of knowing that his visitor
would not live out the month.
The
Oval Office – White House
There were only two persons present in the most famous and
important office in the world. Both the President and Vivian Higgins, his
primary advisor for domestic policy, were glum, obviously distressed, though
each knew that this day had to eventually come.
After both quietly looked over the media feeds which she had
carried into the office, Vivian was the first to speak, “What did you think?
Our guys at the IRS
muscled
the Tea
Party….and the gunners….and the religious kooks….and nobody would notice?
Right.
”
“I know….I get it….But, better that it come out
now
than
before
the election, of course. But, why didn’t we….why didn’t we
have the IRS turn down a bunch of liberal or green applicants, or whatever? It
would have looked better.”
Vivian waited to answer, carefully choosing her words. She
wasn’t concerned about insulting the President. She knew more about him than
the First Lady, after all. Knowing him as she did she just wanted to make sure
that she headed the President’s anger in the right direction. Their common
agenda, to radically transform the nation, was priority one. Any other priority
was far distant. She finally spoke, “Mr. President, because of our continuing
problems trying to explain, really
avoid
explaining, your absence when our ambassador was killed, now we really don’t
have a choice. The IRS kerfuffle just added to the large pile of problems
pushing us to massively
change the
subject
….soon. Need I point out that the scandal pile just keeps growing?”
“I don’t have a problem with changing the subject, Vivian.
As Wilbur would say, ‘let’s move on’. We knew it would come to something like
this when we bludgeoned Hilde out the race for the nomination….back in the day.
Frankly, I expected the birth issue to be the tipping point, shoving us into
our false flag, especially with the documents case moving through that
Neanderthal southern court. We’ve seen a few good-sized street riots protesting
the House hearings and the Republicans’ constant talk about impeachment, but
not
nearly
enough
. We seriously need several cities to be put to the torch. We need to
light the fuse
”
Vivian again took her time responding, “The certificate case
appears to be handled. Thankfully, the media phone records scandal, so called,
also died off, as our friends in the mainstream finally realized that biting
the hand that feeds them
wasn’t too smart
.
Since most of our direct pursuit was of Fox guys, the rest of the media was
willing to look the other way. Lest you forget, I was the
only one
here who said not to
ever
admit the IRS abuses. I just remembered that one of the charges against Nixon
was abuse by his IRS. Nobody,
no
-body,
likes the IRS, so it was playing with fire.”
“Vivian, whether it was the IRS or something else, neither
of us had any illusions that we were going to last for two full terms without
waving the false flag. Why did we staff up the DHS and buy all that military
hardware if we didn’t think it was all eventually going to implode? I overrode
your objections on the IRS admissions precisely because I knew what it would
do. The IRS matter has fired up the people most likely to take up guns. I’m tired
of hearing the “I” word. I’ll
never
leave office,
ever
, as we both know.
Marxists don’t willingly give up power,
do
we
Vivian
?
Impeachment?
It’s time, Vivian.”
Small
Group Bible Study, Home of Hannah & Gary
Birmingham,
Alabama
Hannah’s yummy toffee crunch bars weren’t Tom’s only reason
for attending small group. Besides the food, admittedly a major draw for Tom,
he also liked the four other couples who usually attended the weekly bible
study and fellowship time. Marty, Tom’s wife of twenty plus years, often
commented to Tom how much she liked to dig into the Word, which she said she
could do better than in a standard worship service. Tom’s major resistance to
attending small group was that with his work schedule as an ER physician he was
not always able to prepare his weekly lesson in advance. As a consequence, Tom
was not a frequent contributor to the group’s discussion, though he often told
his male buddies how much he enjoyed listening to Marty’s “spirited
discussion”, as he referred to her occasionally contentious additions to the
group’s review of the lesson.
Scott, a seminary graduate, though now in insurance sales,
delighted in sparring with Marty on what Tom often thought was minutia
regarding the interpretation of Bible verses. When Marty and Scott would get
into such a debate Tom was known to ask rhetorically, “So, guys,
how many
angels
….exactly….have you decided, yet, can fit on the head of a
pin?”
Usually, after hearing Tom’s
humorous, though pointed, question Scott and Marty would back off and the
discussion would move on. But not always; Marty was strong in her Biblical
views. Scott, who was just as adamant, would frequently chide Marty by saying,
“You know, sister, there’s only one letter difference between strong and wrong.
OK, maybe two, but you get my point.”
The five couples who showed up at Hannah and Gary’s house
tonight for small group knew that they were in for a spirited discussion. They
had just voted two sessions ago to study a book about prophecy in the end times
entitled THE END OF AMERICA. Max recommended that the group study the book
after hearing about it from a relative in Florida. His cousin told him that the
book applied over two hundred and twenty Old and New Testament prophetic verses
to the United States. The book suggested that America is the rich, powerful and
influential nation revealed in thirty scriptural clues as the Daughter of
Babylon and Babylon the Great. Max, a professor at UAB, purchased the book,
read it and suggested it for group study. The others in the small group, which
had been meeting weekly for almost four years, agreed with Max’s suggestion.
Scott was chosen to lead their thirteen week study of the
book. He relished the chance to study prophecy, one of his favorite subjects.
He also looked forward to Scott’s comments and input, as a seminary graduate.
Scott asked, “Max, would you open us in prayer?”
“Sure….Lord, we are starting a new study of your Word
tonight, as You know. We ask that You guide our discussion, give us wisdom as
we look at what Your prophets wrote and keep us from error. In Jesus’ name we
pray…and all God’s people said, Amen.” A chorus of amens greeted Max’s
conclusion.
“This is the subject for our first lesson
– Is America in the Bible
? As you know
from reading the study guide and the book, God alone claims the power to
accurately foretell the future. In Isaiah 45:21 God says, ‘
Who foretold this long ago, who declared
it from the distant past? Was it not I, the LORD?’
In many ways, folks, God rests His divinity on His
ability to see the future – with 100% accuracy. No other person or entity can
do that. Only God. Jesus said in Matthew 24:15 ‘
See, I have told you ahead of time
.’ So, what we’re going to do in
this study, guys, is to try and discern what God has told us ahead of time
about our country, the good ol’ U S of A. First question. Is America named in
the Bible?”
The group was silent for a short time.
The first person to speak was Hannah, “Well….Scott….if you mean, is the word
America found in scripture, then, no, of course not. It was written centuries,
millenia,
before
America was
discovered and named. Is that what you’re looking for?”
Beau, the group’s most knowledgable
student of the Bible, responded to Hannah’s comment, “Hannah, you’re right, of
course, but don’t forget that God could have included the word if He had wanted
to. Don’t forget that He disclosed the name of Cyrus in Isaiah 44:28 at least
two hundred years
before
he was born.
In the same prophecy God also said that Cyrus would re-build Jerusalem some
day. In Second Chronicles 36:23 Cyrus is quoted as acknowledging that he knew
that God had decreed that he re-build Jerusalem, including the Temple, which,
of course, Cyrus did. My point is that God could have listed America in
scripture, by name, but, of course, had He done so, how many new nations
founded after the prophecy had been written would have named themselves
America? I’m just sayin’.”
Scott led the group further, saying,
“Just because the Bible doesn’t include the specific name America, does that
mean that it’s not portrayed in the Bible? For example, in Revelation 9 John
describes a future end times army of two hundred million soldiers that will
march from the east, apparently a reference to China, one of the only nations
with a population base that would support such a huge army. In fact, China has
reserves today that are that size. So, it appears that China is portrayed in
scripture, but not by the specific name of China.”
Marty asked, “Scott, I’ve read ahead in
the book a bit, so I know where this study is headed. There’s a website where
you can read more at
www.endofamericabook.com
. Even though the specific name America isn’t included in the
Bible, you’re saying….what the author is saying….is that our country is
portrayed, or described, however you want to say it, in prophetic verses that
are
about America
. That’s the point,
right?”
“Right, Marty. But, let me be clear.
It’s not
my opinion
and it’s not
the opinion
of the author of this book
that counts. What counts is what the Author of the Bible wrote through His
Prophets. As you know, Marty, it appears that there are thirty or so clues in
the Bible describing what it calls the identity of Mystery Babylon, also called
the Daughter of Babylon and Babylon the Great. The clues describe a rich,
powerful and influential end times nation. We’re going to study the thirty
clues to attempt to decide if they apply to America, or to a church
denomination, or to ancient Babylon or maybe to some other nation in the
world.”
Liz, Max’s wife, known for generally
preparing her lesson for small group, though not usually saying much,
responded, “Scott. Good start. I’m really looking forward to this study. I
can’t think of any subject more important than learning what God may have
revealed about
our
country….and its
future. We are sure living in
scary times
.
Thanks, Scott.”
“My pleasure, Scott replied, “I’m also
looking forward to this study. Liz’s comment about scary times is right on….
Oh,
wait, one other thing….almost forgot….speaking of scary things. I received an
e-mail before I left home from a Marine buddy of mine that y’all need to read.
I didn’t have time to send it before I left for small group. Look for my e-mail
with an attached memo called something like The Communist Takeover of America
or a similar title. It’s an eye-opener. OK, men and women, let’s get dessert
and break into our prayer groups.”
