North Korea launched another missile today. This one went higher and further than any before — defense analysts concluding the power and range were consistent with a fully functional ICBM for which we have no deterrent — well within range of Washington DC and everything in between.
Concurrent nuclear tests, the most recent eclipsing by virtually an order of magnitude any previous underground test confirmed the signature of a far more destructive "thermo" nuclear capability. The delivery of such a capability was simulated today with a 100kg payload.
Many wonder why there is no Eschaton (end times) allusion to America in Scripture. Perhaps, there is no "end times" America — brings to remembrance the poignant words of Paul's Roman epistle.
"Knowing the time, that now it is high time to awake out of sleep: for now is our salvation nearer than when we believed. The night is far spent, the day is at hand" (cf. Romans 13:11-12).If the night was far spent, and the "Day" at hand in Paul's day, how much so today?
Saved?
