The Return of the GodsAudiobook

Jonathan Cahn has some pretty incredible information that he shares on TV and although I’ve never heard him talk about this book, the title intrigued me because I’ve always had a belief that the gods of ancient times were more than complete fables and devoid of any supernatural power. And reading this book has really made the idea of the gods make more sense and fit in to what I believed even though I had no background knowledge to support it. The most incredible thing about reading this book is how the statement “the gods are behind the transformation of America” is actually the most reasonable explanation. When you think about how much America has changed in such a short period of time it begs the question, “How?” And I know Christian and Nonchristians who can acknowledge the change as being “unbelievable” and “not making sense”, and while the argument from a Christian perspective could say merely that America moving away from God will naturally bring about evil, but while that may be true, I emphasize that I know “nonchristians” who acknowledge the current trend of American society as evil and unnatural and “crazy how far we’ve fallen so quickly”, so again “how?” This is not merely something that happened because of a departure from God, this is a culmination of turning from God and a supernatural power of evil, a god or the gods, coming in and possessing a nation. In the modern world my statement earlier “the gods are behind the transformation of America” sounds absurd, the world and even the church views spirits/gods/etc as fictional or at the very least a thing of the past, but as someone watching the decline of society and how specific people who once opposed gay marriage, who once had no hesitation saying transsexual things were wrong, who once believed in line with Christian values could suddenly support all those things just doesn’t seem explainable. There’s no way it could just happen, but it did, so “how?” “the gods are behind the transformation of America” That is the only way, it makes the most sense and that’s even before reading the book and seeing how much factual information there is to back up that statement. This book in comparison to some of his other books is preferable to me since I don’t care for the fictional story that makes up the backbone of some of his books. He does kinda beat the dead horse and repeat himself a lot that can be laborsome, but overall I had no issues getting through this book with all of the incredible information it had to offer. One thing that is my observance that he didn’t mention is about the rainbow. He shared a lot of cool stuff connected to the rainbow but a couple things I think may be related that he didn’t mention are the connections to end times. Most of us know about Jesus and saying basically “as in the days of Noah” when talking about the end times, well the most prominent sign from the days of Noah was a rainbow, so this rainbow flag that is saturating our culture I believe is a sign that we are in/approaching the days of Noah of the end times. And think about the gods as they parade their servants around with their rainbow flag. God said of the rainbow that when He saw the rainbow it would be a reminder of his covenant with Noah that he would never destroy mankind through a flood again, and so the gods are defiantly flaunting the rainbow so that it’s literally everywhere as they are consuming the world and saying to God, again with defiance “look there’s Your rainbow, remember your covenant, you can’t destroy us through a flood like you did” because if you believe as I do the flood is rooted in the nephilim which I believe are rooted in the gods which are rooted in fallen angels. The other thing this book does is give a more tangible understanding of the Jewish people and their “serving of other gods”. While reading the Bible I find myself literally think “how can they keep turning to these other gods”, but that’s because the gods are traditionally viewed as lifeless statues of wood or stone with no supernatural powers behind them, but just like America today “how could we turn to such evil ways”(or to mirror my sentiment to the Jews) “how could we turn to these other gods”, it’s not as baffling and hard to believe now that I realize we are living in a time where just like the Israelites turned from God and served other gods despite it not making any sense, America has turned from God and started serving other gods despite it not making any sense. The gods have certainly returned and I know first hand that they don’t need but a tiny opening and they can possess a person and make them do things they knew at one time was wrong and justify things they never thought they would do. We live in a time where it’s a 24/7 battle for our hearts, minds, and spirit and letting your guard down for just a short period of time can be enough for the gods to come in.
