Title: Not Just a Better America 

Subject: The Millenium will not be patterned after the U.S.
Summary: Richard Ritenbaugh, after pointing to some recent miraculous interventions of God on behalf of America, warns people not to conclude that God tacitly approves or condones the American way of doing things. God does not endorse the American system any more than any other system not based on God's Laws. The Millennium will not resemble America. Except for a tiny remnant sifted or called out by God (John 6:44), God has cut off contact with all of humanity- including the American version of the Babylonian system. Everything emanating from the heart of man is partly good and partly evil. God will not build His kingdom on a foundation of good mixed with evil, but exclusively on the abundant knowledge of God. Nothing will be like it is now. Applying God's principles, our natural and human resources could be redirected more efficiently and productively.
