Official USA debt continues to rise.<\/p>\n

The latest published figure from the US Treasury (which was as of Monday) which I accessed today was $31,388,880,520,361.96 https:\/\/fiscaldata.treasury.gov\/datasets\/debt-to-the-penny\/debt-to-the-penny<\/a><\/p>\n

US to max out on debt soon, setting up political fight<\/p>\n

January 11, 2023<\/p>\n

WASHINGTON (AP) \u2014 The federal government is on track to max out on its $31.4 trillion borrowing authority as soon as this month, starting the clock on an expected standoff between President Joe Biden and the new House Republican majority that will test both parties\u2019 ability to navigate a divided Washington<\/a>, with the fragile global economy<\/a> at stake.<\/p>\n

Once the government bumps up against the cap \u2014 it could happen any time in the next few weeks or longer \u2014 the Treasury Department will be unable to issue new debt without congressional action. The department plans to deploy what are known as \u201cextraordinary measures\u201d to keep the government operating. But once those measures run out, probably mid-summer, the government could be at risk of defaulting unless lawmakers and the president agree to lift the limit on the U.S. government\u2019s ability to borrow.<\/p>\n

The expected showdown over the debt limit would be a stark display of the new reality for Biden and his fellow Democrats, who enjoyed one-party control of Washington for the past two years. It would presage the challenges to come in achieving even the modest ambitions that Democrats are bringing to the task of legislating in a divided Capitol. …<\/p>\n

\u201cCongress is going to need to raise the debt limit without \u2014 without \u2014 conditions, and it\u2019s just that simple,\u201d White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre said recently. \u201cAttempts to exploit the debt ceiling as leverage will not work. There will be no hostage taking.\u201d https:\/\/apnews.com\/article\/biden-politics-united-states-government-us-department-of-the-treasury-business-84ef9d1c5803bd25e8e9cc3538cd0ab2?utm_source=homepage&utm_medium=TopNews&utm_campaign=position_02<\/a><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Well, it may not be simple, but the plan is to keep increasing the debt.
\n<\/em><\/p>\n

Debt limits keep getting raised.<\/p>\n

No serious plan to actually reduce the debt is in the works that currently stands a chance to be implemented.<\/p>\n

The massive amount of USA debt is “a giant red flag for all of us about America\u2019s future economic health.” Nations around the world see this and many have taken steps to prepare to topple the USA’s economic leadership of the world.<\/p>\n

The rate of increase of the official federal debt has been staggering.<\/p>\n

Consider the following:<\/p>\n

\n

On Jan. 20, 2009, when Obama was inaugurated, the total debt of the federal government was $10,626,877,048,913.08, according to data published by the U.S. Treasury<\/a>. 10\/07\/16 http:\/\/www.cnsnews.com\/news\/article\/terence-p-jeffrey\/debt-under-obama-9000000000000<\/a><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

So, in less than 14 years after the Obama-Biden Administration first took office, official USA debt has almost tripled!<\/p>\n

On January. 20, 2021, when Joe Biden was inaugurated, the total debt of the federal government was $27,751,896,236,414.77, according to data published by the U.S. Treasury.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Debt has increased at a rate of about US$2 trillion per year under the Biden-Harris Administration–and yes, debt also increased a lot under the Trump-Pence Administration.<\/p>\n

Let me also add that in 2013, something called sequestration was supposed to stop the debt limit from being raised. The purpose of sequestration was to reduce the increase of the projected spending deficits for the US government. The cuts were supposed to be so painful that both Republicans and Democrats would simply have to come up with a better debt reduction plan\u2013but as history shows, sequestration ended up not working politically and was abandoned.<\/p>\n

Do not think that having Republicans control the US House of Representatives means that the USA plans to greatly pay down its ever increasing debt.<\/p>\n

Increasing debt in the Biden-Harris Administration was discussed in my book Biden-Harris: Prophecies and Destruction<\/a> as follows:<\/p>\n

\n

Debt is a prophesied problem (cf. Habakkuk 2:6-8). But many in the media as well as politically-inclined economists do not see it that way\u2014but that is too short sighted (cf. Ecclesiastes 8:11).<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

The time will come when the U.S.A. government will no longer be able to borrow at low interest rates and\/or it will create more money electronically and\/or via the printing press to try to continue. <\/span><\/p>\n

Make no mistake about it — massive inflation is coming. <\/span><\/p>\n

The U.S.A. dollar will ultimately crash and be worthless. That \u201cpride\u201d of American power will be broken (cf. Leviticus 26:19). <\/span><\/p>\n

A Biden-Harris Administration has asserted it will take debt raising steps.<\/span> …<\/p>\n

Let us also consider that there is a prophecy in Habakkuk, written about 2600 years ago, about debt which is preceded by the following:<\/p>\n

2<\/sup> Then the Lord answered me and said:<\/p>\n

Write the vision And make it plain on tablets, That he may run who reads it. (Habakkuk 2:2)<\/p>\n

The Bible says that the \u2018debt prophecy\u2019 to be revealed later in Habakkuk 2 is so significant that those who read it should run\u2014essentially that they should take steps because the results will be horrific. Joe Biden and many other American politicians have not run away from increasing U.S.A. debt\u2014that will be to the nation\u2019s peril.<\/p>\n

The Bible warns about something that will happen to a heavily indebted nation. Notice what the Hebrew seer Habakkuk wrote over 2,600 years ago:<\/p>\n

3<\/sup> For the vision is yet for an appointed time<\/strong>; But at the end<\/strong> it will speak, and it will not lie. Though it tarries, wait for it; Because it will surely come<\/strong>, It will not tarry … 5<\/sup> Indeed, because he transgresses by wine, He is a proud man \u2026 6 <\/sup>\u201cWill not all these take up a proverb against him, And a taunting riddle against him, and say, \u2018Woe to him who increases What is not his\u2014how long? And to him who loads himself with many pledges\u2019? 7 <\/sup>Will not your creditors rise up suddenly?<\/strong> Will they not awaken who oppress you? And you will become their booty. <\/strong>8<\/sup> Because you have plundered many nations, All the remnant of the people shall plunder you\u2026 <\/strong>(Habakkuk 2:2-3,6\u20138). …<\/p>\n

Notice that what is to happen is so bad, that people who read the prophecy should run, when it is time for it to be fulfilled. Since that prophecy is to be fulfilled at the appointed time of the end, it is still for the future, but perhaps not too far distant in the future. No nation has ever been in as much total debt as the U.S.A. …<\/p>\n

European leaders have been working for years to establish a new reserve currency for the world, partially with the intent to remove the U.S. dollar from its position as the world\u2019s primary reserve currency.<\/span> …<\/p>\n

The Bible clearly warns against cheapening the money supply and encourages having money hold its value (Proverbs 25:4 Isaiah 1:25, Ezekiel 22:18-22). Yet policies enacted under the Obama and Trump Administrations, following certain other administrations, have ignored these warnings.<\/p>\n

No nation in the history of humankind has ever accumulated as much debt as the United States of America (because the U.K. may have close to the highest amount of per capita debt {Conway E. Britain showing signs of heading towards 1930s-style depression, says Bank. Telegraph, March 16, 2009 },its fate would be similar). Destruction is coming.<\/p>\n

However, the relationship between debt accumulation and prophesied destruction remains unapparent to many. Because there is a time lag, many ignore that there will be real consequences (cf. Ecclesiastes 8:11; Habakkuk 2:3,6-8). Yet, these increases of debt are utterly dangerous.<\/p>\n

When the time comes that the Federal Reserve is no longer able to keep interest rates artificially low, the U.S.A. will continue past the point of no return. That will become one of the final factors that will cause creditors to rise up and destroy the U.S.A. (Thiel B. Biden-Harris: Prophecies and Destruction<\/a>. Nazarene Books, 2021)<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

We have already seen the Biden-Harris Administration increase official USA government debt. We have already seen the Fed begin to increase interest rates.<\/p>\n

Raised interest rates and raised debt also increases the debt for the future. The USA is in a bad way because of its political moves which often increase debt.<\/p>\n

Related to US debt, a couple of years back, Cal Thomas brought out the following from founders of the USA:<\/p>\n

— Thomas Jefferson said: “We must not let our rulers load us with perpetual debt.”<\/p>\n

— Alexander Hamilton warned: “Nothing can more affect national prosperity than a constant and systematic attention to extinguish the present debt and to avoid as much as possibl(e) the incurring of any new debt.”<\/p>\n

— George Washington said: “Avoid occasions of expense … and avoid likewise the accumulation of debt not only by shunning occasions of expense but by vigorous exertions to discharge the debts, not throwing upon posterity the burden which we ourselves ought to bear.”<\/p>\n

– Then there’s James Madison: “I go on the principle that a public debt is a public curse, and in a Republican Government a greater curse than any other.”<\/p>\n

Can anyone credibly challenge these warnings? If not, why aren’t we obeying them? 09\/10\/2020 https:\/\/www.foxbusiness.com\/money\/national-debt-dangers-founders<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Well, many in the USA despise the word of God and trust in perversion (Isaiah 30:12), suppress the truth in unrighteousness (Romans 1:18), and are too selfish to care (2 Timothy 3:1-4)–so they go the wrong way.<\/p>\n

Now, consider that the USA is basically believed to be the richest nation of all time.<\/p>\n

Yet, it is also the most indebted nation of all time.<\/p>\n

The USA is addicted to debt.<\/p>\n

Its lusts for debt brought the following scripture to mind:<\/p>\n

15 The leech has two daughters \u2014
\nGive and Give!<\/p>\n

There are three things that are never satisfied,
\nFour never say, “Enough!”: (Proverbs 30:15)<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

The USA has acted like an international leech.<\/p>\n

Its leaders never have enough, so they continually take advantage of the USA dollar’s position as the world primary reserve currency and feel that they can get away with increasing debt without consequence.<\/p>\n

That is wrong.<\/p>\n

The USA also has no intention in ever properly paying its debts back.<\/p>\n

That is wicked:<\/p>\n

21<\/sup> The wicked borrows and does not repay, But the righteous shows mercy and gives. (Psalms 37:21)<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Since the moral direction of the USA is going in the wrong direction, it is understandable that debt will increase. This is leading to a real disaster in the future. The USA also cannot expect to lead the world economically for that long if it is going to continue to increase its debt\u2013that is not based on any conspiracy but economic fact as well as insight from biblical prophecy (cf. Habakkuk 2:6-8).<\/p>\n

But no, the politicians of the USA have not listened to the Bible.<\/p>\n

The USA still has a massive pride about its dollar. Yet, the Bible teaches:<\/p>\n

18 Pride goes before destruction, And a haughty spirit before a fall. (Proverbs 16:18)<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

It is prideful arrogance that gets humans to think that they can essentially completely control the economy and just borrow and print up money. They cannot. Weather, political events, diseases, wars, morality, technology, international matters, and other factors play a role.<\/p>\n

The Anglo-American world order will come to an end. Accumulation of debt will end up being a financial crisis beyond what most “experts” and politicians have imagined.<\/p>\n

National repentance is needed, but is not expected. The USA and its Anglo-Saxon allies will not last to the end of this century (watch also Might the U.S.A. Be Gone by 2028?<\/a>).<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
