The Paradigm: The Ancient Blueprint That Holds the Mystery of Our Times

by Jonathan Cahn

God is able to interweave and interconnect any one event with any other event and any moment with any other moment and thus join two worlds together, the ancient and the modern, even when the two are separated by a chasm of ages.

They began driving God out of their public squares, out of their government, out of the instruction of their children, out of their culture, and out of their lives. They expunged His Word from their public

discourse and His law from their collective consciousness. And by driving God out, they created a vacuum. Into that vacuum they brought in still more gods. Their lives were now permeated with idols and increasingly carnal, materialistic, and fragmented. And their civilization was now at war against the foundation on which it stood.

What the nation had once opposed and shunned it had now become. The metamorphosis was complete.

Having departed from the light, they would now be mastered by the darkness. Baal had promised them freedom, but he would give them degradation and in the end national destruction.

As the nation and civilization turns away from God, it will turn to idolatry to fill the void. It will deify the material world. Thus it will grow increasingly

materialistic and increasingly obsessed with the sensual.
