First things first. When the Lord comes Babylon and her economy will crumble and the beast will be removed and the sheep and the goats separated and the millennial kingdom. But first the MoS will crumble the economy and remove the kingdoms powers and separate the sheep and goats and set up his kingdom.

The goats will think they are sheep and he will give them his seal and the sheep they will say are goats because they wont worship him, then they will kill them and cast them into the fire. Everything you believe the Lord will do the MoS will do in it's order prior to the Lords coming, the kingdoms will fall and the economy crumble to so that he can rescue the world from it.

We are most certainly not in a period of living with the lord as king. Just think of the genocides of recent times.

We all know of the genocide of Hitler. There are genocides currently raging, and many threatening us today.

One of the more recent genocides happened in the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC), and Genocide Watch reports that genocide continues to take place. Reports estimate that almost six million people have died since fighting started in 1996

Darfur is a region in Western Sudan with a population of around seven million people. Since 2003, the Sudanese government-backed militia called the Janjaweed have laid waste many villages in Darfur. A 2016 report indicated that more than 600,000 people have died directly or indirectly because of the conflict.

From the invasion of China in 1937 to the end of World War II, the Japanese military regime murdered near 3,000,000 to over 10,000,000 people, most probably almost 6,000,000 Chinese, Indonesians, Koreans, Filipinos, and Indochinese, among others, including Western prisoners of war. This democide was due to a morally bankrupt political and military strategy, military expediency and custom, and national culture (such as the view that those enemy soldiers who surrender while still able to resist were criminals).

Not long ago my scripture study class did a study of how Hitler opposed Christianity, and the sneaky ways he went about it, like undermining the family making the government take the place of family, and overpowering it. It compared each step he took with policies accepted in democratic government today.

My kids got back not long ago from fifteen years working for their companies in Europe and Singapore. They found it hard to find spirit filled churches to go to there, they felt Christians were in the minority. They told of trying to go to church in the cathedrals of Europe, but not finding the holy spirit working in those churches, they seemed cold.

I just finished reading Ken Follett’s Pillars of the Earth, a fiction story of what it is like to be caught up in the cruelty of dictatorship. It is based on fact. It also points to the cruelty that even Christians show to each other as they sit in judgment of each other, saying it is because of what scripture tells them.
