The Congressional Budget Office confirmed that US debt is expected to increase and that this increases the risk of sudden economic collapse:<\/p>\n

Federal Debt and the Risk of a Fiscal Crisis<\/strong><\/span><\/div>\n
\n
Congressional Budget Office<\/strong> – July 27, 2010…<\/span><\/span><\/div>\n

Over the past few years, U.S. government debt held by the public has grown rapidly…<\/span><\/p>\n

Further increases in federal debt relative to the nation\u2019s output (gross domestic product, or GDP) almost certainly lie ahead if current policies remain in place. The aging of the population and rising costs for health care will push federal spending, measured as a percentage of GDP, well above the levels experienced in recent decades. Unless policymakers restrain the growth of spending, increase revenues significantly as a share of GDP, or adopt some combination of those two approaches, growing budget deficits will cause debt to rise to unsupportable levels…<\/span><\/p>\n

a growing level of federal debt would also increase the probability of a sudden fiscal crisis<\/strong>, during which investors would lose confidence in the government\u2019s ability to manage its budget, and the government would thereby lose its ability to borrow at affordable rates.<\/span><\/p>\n

It is possible that interest rates would rise gradually as investors\u2019 confidence declined, giving legislators advance warning of the worsening situation and sufficient time to make policy choices that could avert a crisis. But as other countries\u2019 experiences show, it is also possible that investors would lose confidence abruptly and interest rates on government debt would rise sharply<\/strong>. The exact point at which such a crisis might occur for the United States is unknown…<\/span><\/p>\n

If the United States encountered a fiscal crisis, the abrupt rise in interest rates would reflect investors\u2019 fears that the government would renege on the terms of its existing debt or that it would increase the supply of money to finance its activities or pay creditors and thereby boost inflation.

Notice that the Congressional Budget Office says that current policies mean that the debt will “rise to unsupportable levels”.\u00a0 “Investors” are foreign creditors that would lose “confidence abruptly”.\u00a0 And they are being politely optimistic.<\/p>\n

Yet, since the Congressional Budget Office is a “mainstream” organization, hopefully those who have doubted reports that have been here that the US economy faces sudden collapse will wake-up and realize that this will happen.<\/p>\n

Now although various ones associated with the Churches of God realize that the US dollar can fall, there is a definite difference in how they view timing of this.\u00a0 The United Church of God<\/a>, for example, believes that this will be a gradual process that can take decades (see UCG: Can the Dollar Fall?<\/a>).\u00a0 The Living Church of God, for another example, believes that it will not take that long and that while the trend for the dollar will be down (with some ups and downs), that it will collapse suddenly (see LCG: USA Economy Faces Potential for Sudden Collapse<\/a>).\u00a0 This is an area that the facts of economics and biblical prophecy supports the Living Church of God<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The US dollar has long been “the pride” of American power.\u00a0 According to Bible prophecy it will be broken.\u00a0 And there will be a sudden collapse.<\/p>\n

Here are just a couple of scriptures about this risk:<\/p>\n

26 O daughter of my people, Dress in sackcloth\u00a0 And roll about in ashes! Make mourning as for an only son, most bitter lamentation;\u00a0 For the plunderer will suddenly come upon us<\/strong>. (Jeremiah 6:26)<\/p>\n

12 Therefore thus says the Holy One of Israel:\u00a0 \u201cBecause you despise this word, And trust in oppression and perversity, And rely on them,\u00a0 13 Therefore this iniquity shall be to you<\/strong> Like a breach ready to fall, A bulge in a high wall, Whose breaking comes suddenly, in an instant<\/strong>. (Isaiah 30:12-13)<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

The Bible is clear that disaster can come suddenly.\u00a0 And that it will.\u00a0 Does not the government of the USA trust in perversity?<\/p>\n

But as the Apostle Paul<\/a> wrote, Christians do not have to be unaware of this (1 Thessalonians 5:4).\u00a0 He also said (as did Jesus in Luke 21:36) to watch (1 Thessalonians 5:7).<\/p>\n

Readers of my book, 2012 and the Rise of the Secret Sect<\/a>, are aware that I believe that the Bible is clear that foreign creditors will rise up suddenly against the USA and it will be no more.<\/p>\n

Do you really understand this and what to do about it?<\/p>\n
