Former General Says America Facing Spiritually Dark Time

Luke 17:28-30 “Likewise as it was also in the days of Lot: They ate, they drank, they bought, they sold, they planted, they built” but on the day that Lot went out of Sodom it rained fire and brimstone from heaven and destroyed them all. Even so will it be in the day when the Son of Man is revealed.

Retired General Jerry Boykin is no stranger to battles.  A 36-year veteran including 13 years in the elite Delta Force, has been involved in situations including the 1980 Iran hostage rescue attempt and the Black Hawk Down incident in Somalia.

Yet he sees one of the greatest battles ahead of him: standing up for Christ in a society that is facing a dark spiritual time. A time he believes could bring the end of the nation.

“We’re going to wind up exactly like these other great empires, which only lasted on an average about 200 years,” he said. “We’re going to completely self-destruct. And you see the beginnings of that now.”

Boykin spoke to CBN and said that it’s critical for America to experience another Great Awakening that will bring the nation back to God before it’s too late.  He said that the two previous Awakenings led to “extraordinary things” happened in the world.

Boykin said that Christians couldn’t count on politicians to save the country.

“Me plus the Holy Spirit: that’s a majority,” he said.

  1. Thank you General Jerry Boykin. I stand in agreement, blessed are you and blessed are we that stand strong for our King Jesus and our Kingdom here on our earth, relying on self only leads to destruction we just have to look around our North America to see that. In Christ period.
