During the first century AD, Rome was the only superpower. Today there are three powerful nations in the world, The United States, Russia and China. Each of these has the same thing in common. Romans 1:25, “ They traded the truth of God for a lie and worshiped and served things that were made by man. But they did not worship and serve the God who made those things. God should be praised forever. Amen.” There are many believers in these nations but the leadership has rejected the Creator and He will not allow that to continue. When and how He choose to discipline the world is up to Him, the job of the faithful is to trust and obey.
