Psalms 2: KJV
1 "Why do the heathen rage, and the people imagine a vain thing? {2} The kings of the earth set themselves, and the rulers take counsel together, against the LORD, and against his anointed, saying, {3} Let us break their bands asunder, and cast away their cords from us. {4} He that sitteth in the heavens shall laugh: the Lord shall have them in derision. {5} Then shall he speak unto them in his wrath, and vex them in his sore displeasure."
This will happen (actually i believe it is happening right now) when the elites will seek to cast aside Christianity as a cultural force in the world.. The elites have used Christianity and other religions for centuries as a force to keep things under control..
I think it was Napoleon who was an atheist who told one of His anti christian subordinates who wanted to get rid of Christianity. That Christianity had value because it kept the lower classes honest and hard working.. That the lower classes needed religion to keep them in line and to lower corruption in the lower classes.. Low corruption means the people pay their taxes.. Don't quote me on that but it was the gist of the conversation, i don't remember where i read it..
But in these latter times it is clear that the elites who control the media have made Christianity a target of mocking and other types of anti-Christian propaganda.. They want to destroy the Judaeo-Christian cultural base of the western world and replace it with some kind of cultural marxism supported by a ecumenical one world religion that will be more to their liking..
Of course as we know it will all end in complete disaster.. The LORD will have them in derision.. And probably already has the Heavenly Host in fits of laughter over their vain attempts to undermine Gods will..
I believe the Last verse is speaking of the Last days wrath that will be poured out upon these people and all who follow them..
