Question

Hi gramps!!

I have a question regarding Armageddon and something my mom told me vs what my seminary teacher said. is it true that even the U.S. will be against Israel in the last war? i always understood that we would be the only nation that would support them. Could you also tell me a scripture or quote concerning this?

Answer

Will,

Thank you for your question, Will.

I’d be interested in hearing what his sources for that statement would be.  It might be that he knows of the prophecies of Gog of Magog rallying all the nations of the world coming to attack Israel.  So, he naturally assumes that the United States would be among those so gathered.  He would be wrong in that assumption

There appears to be a consensus among Christian Scholars of all stripes (both LDS and non-LDS) that the United States won’t exist as we know it by the time the great war happens.
