U.S. to BREAK UP SOON? Could it Really Happen?

I provide the following article with the intentions of not causing you to fear but to be educated on what could happen. Do I personally believe something like this could happen? Absolutely. It happened to Israel and Judah (God's people) and there is no reason to think it couldn't happen to the "Mighty U.S.A." Will it happen as soon as 2010? I don't know. But I do believe time is running out for the American church to keep something like this from happening to our nation. What is that we can do? The answer is found in 2 Chronicles 7:14 as well as in other places in the bible.

I encourage you..please do not read stuff like this and harden yourself and say "This could never happen to us here in America?" Instead, as believers and followers of Christ, may we humble ourselves, fast, pray, and seek God's face. Let us live holy before Almighty God and others. And may we pray, pray, and pray for our country and it's leaders. May God save us from the following ever happening to our nation and its people!

U.S to BREAK UP SOON?
-by Chuck Baldwin.
(Sep 29, 2009)

According to Macedonian Radio and Television On-line (MRT), a
Russian professor predicts the United States will fall apart in July
2010. MRT reports, "'Mr. Obama is similar to the last Soviet leader
Mikhail Gorbachev. Gorbachev was also making great promises for
the Soviet Union, but the situation was only getting worse,' he said.
By next summer, according to Professor Panarin, the US will
disintegrate into six blocs--and everyone will get their piece. 'The
probability that the United States of America fall apart in July 2010
is more than 50 percent,' said Igor Panarin, Professor at Moscow's
Diplomatic Academy within the Russian Federation's Ministry of
Foreign Affairs."

MRT went on to report, "Panarin came up with his grim forecast
while analyzing the parallels between the Soviet Union in its final
days and the current situation in the United States. 'American
dream ballooned seven times in 11 years. During Gorbachev era,
the Soviet dream ballooned five times.' Americans hope [President]
Barack Obama 'can work miracles,' he wrote. 'But when spring
comes, it will be clear that there are no miracles.'"

The Drudge Report confirmed the MRT report and added, "Professor
Igor Panarin said in an interview with the respected daily IZVESTIA . . .
'The dollar is not secured by anything. The country's foreign debt has
grown like an avalanche, even though in the early 1980s there was
no debt. By 1998, when I first made my prediction, it had exceeded
$2 trillion. Now it is more than 11 trillion. This is a pyramid that can
only collapse.'"

At least some of what Panarin said back in the fall of 2008 either
has taken place or is in the process of taking place. Drudge
reported, "When asked when the U.S. economy would collapse,
Panarin said: 'It is already collapsing. Due to the financial crisis,
three of the largest and oldest five banks on Wall Street have
already ceased to exist, and two are barely surviving. Their losses
are the biggest in history. Now what we will see is a change in the
regulatory system on a global financial scale: America will no
longer be the world's financial regulator.'"

Drudge continued reporting Panarin as saying that "the U.S. will
break up into six parts-- the Pacific coast, with its growing Chinese
population; the South, with its Hispanics; Texas, where independence
movements are on the rise; the Atlantic coast, with its distinct and
separate mentality; five of the poorer central states with their large
Native American populations; and the northern states, where the
influence from Canada is strong."

Panarin further suggested that Russia might even "claim Alaska."

Reporting on the same story, The Wall Street Journal said,
"Prof. Panarin, 50 years old, is not a fringe figure. A former KGB
analyst, he is dean of the Russian Foreign Ministry's academy
for future diplomats. He is invited to Kremlin receptions, lectures
students, publishes books, and appears in the media as an
expert on U.S.-Russian relations."

The WSJ goes on to say that Panarin believes that "mass
immigration, economic decline, and moral degradation will trigger
a civil war next fall and the collapse of the dollar."

This is not the first time that Comrade Panarin has made such a
prediction. Joseph Farah, editor of World Net Daily, noted in
December of 2008 that Panarin has been making similar projections
for the past ten years. In a column regarding Panarin's predictions,
Farah wrote, "Until recently, no one took him very seriously. And
then came the economic calamity that has rocked Americans and
the rest of the world, too. Now, Panarin's predictions of an end of
the United States, due to economic and moral collapse, is being
taken seriously by many."

So, will the United States break up in 2010? Or 2011? Or 2012?
Or anytime in the near future, for that matter? If history is any
teacher, the chances would seem good that Panarin's predictions
may be closer to reality than anyone would like to admit.

A historian and linguist from South Africa recently wrote me a
fascinating letter, in which he chronicled the major world empires
of history, dating the time of their rise and fall. Here is what his
calculations look like:

Assyria (859-612 B.C.): a 247-year reign.
Persia (538-330 B.C.): a 208-year reign.
Greece (331-100 B.C.): a 231-year reign.
The Roman Republic (260-27 B.C.): a 233-year reign.
The Roman Empire (27 B.C.-180 A.D.): a 207-year reign.
The Arab Empire (634-880 A.D.): a 246-year reign.
The Mameluke Empire (1250-1517 A.D.): a 267-year reign.
The Ottoman Empire (1320-1570 A.D.): a 250-year reign.
Spain (1500-1750 A.D.): a 250-year reign.
Romanov Russia (1682-1916 A.D.): a 234-year reign.
Great Britain (1700-1950 A.D.): a 250-year reign.
The USA (1790-2009 A.D.): 219 years and counting.

My honorable historian-friend calculates America's reign using its
post-Revolutionary War years. He notes that America's reign is
currently at 219 years. He further notes that the average duration
of every world superpower listed above is a little over 238 years.

One does not need to be a master mathematician or possess a
Ph.D. to realize that America is fast approaching the mark in which
every major world power in history has either collapsed or, at a
minimum, lost its world leadership and power.

My friend also reminded me of his homeland's (South Africa's)
demise. He told me that he noticed the handwriting on the wall in
time to relocate his family to a more peaceful and stable European
country. Many of his friends and countrymen were not so fortunate,
however, and thousands were killed and their properties confiscated.
He then warned me, "The period of Grace is closing, in what is your
homeland."

In addition, serious students of Holy Writ are also struck with the
similarities between societal conditions in America and those of
Old Testament Israel (as well as with Gentile nations) at those
times of divine judgment and retribution. As someone trenchantly
said, "If God spares the United States, He will have to apologize to
Sodom and Gomorrah."

Will the Russian analyst's prophecies come true in 2010? Probably
not. Does that mean that America is impervious to some sort of
national demise? Not at all. Is America already in serious trouble?
You bet. Could there be some sort of break-up within the United
States in the near future? In my opinion, that is a very realistic
probability. If this happens, will freedom suffer? Almost certainly.
Will those with tyrannical tendencies use the opportunity of any
national disaster to try and enslave us? They already do. I personally
do not believe that there is any "If" to the question. The only
questions are, "When?" and "To what degree?"

And, of course, there is another question: "When the break-up
comes, how many Americans understand the principles of liberty
enough, and are personally prepared enough, and are willing enough
to resist whatever power it may be that seeks to place us under the
thumb of oppression and fight for the same protections and
vanguards of liberty that first established this land?" Obviously, the
answer to that question is yet to be determined, isn't it?
