Commentary

A new prophetess has appeared on the world stage, a Swedish girl by the name of Greta Thunberg. This teenager was just given a platform at the United Nations to share her vision of an environmental holocaust with the leaders of nations.  Her demand for immediate and drastic climate “action” was rewarded with enthusiastic applause.

The Left, which nowadays includes major media outlets, has sung her praises.  Some have even compared her to the Virgin Mary.

Hollywood’s elites are simply gushing. Alyssa Milano wrote that “we are blessed to have this warrior of the human spirit”.  Debra Messing wants her to get a Noble Peace Prize.  Mia Farrow added her approval and applause on her Twitter account.

The foolishness on display is simply astounding. And rather foreboding.

Over the years, many people have casually predicted that the Lord will one day judge America and the world for its embrace of industrialized slaughter. Surely they are right – but they miss the fact that God is judging America and the world for the abortion holocaust.  And Miss Thunberg is a perfect example of that judgment.

In the book of Isaiah, we read of God’s harsh dealings with Israel because of their rebellion and sin:

“The Lord …shall take away from Jerusalem … support and prop, hero and warrior, judge and prophet…. I will make striplings their princes; the fickle shall govern them…. The child shall be bold toward the elder, and the base toward the honorable.” (Isaiah 3: 1-7).

Can there be any more striking example of this same holy judgment upon our modern culture than a teenage girl berating and leading morally bankrupt heads of state? Or, for that matter, a Speaker of the U.S. House catering to the childish tantrums of an AOC?
