Anne
Graham Lotz: These Signs Prove That We Are Looking at the 'Last Generation of
Human History'
Anne Graham Lotz, daughter of famed evangelist
Billy Graham, believes that "God is removing
himself" from America, revealing in a recent interview the two
biblical signs that she believes indicate that this could be the "last generation of human
history."
"There's frustration,
there's anger, there's fear, and I think it's because God is removing himself,
because we've defied him," Lotz told The
Church Boys podcast on Friday. "We're telling him to get out and so he is. So, what we're sensing
is that our nation is missing God and he's withdrawn, and the only way to get
him back is to pray."
The evangelist, who authored the new book, "The Daniel Prayer: Prayer That Moves Heaven and Changes
Nations,"
pointed to Jesus' words in Matthew 24 to highlight two specific prophecies that
she believes are unfolding before the eyes of the world.
"Two of the last [signs
that Jesus] gave was that Israel would be reborn. He said that the fig tree
would put forth leaves and the generation that sees that is the last
generation," Lotz said. "For
2,000 years, Israel was scattered all over the world. Jews were scattered
everywhere. They didn't have a homeland."
But the events of May 14, 1948 changed all of
that, she said, with the state of Israel re-emerging, and with Jews flooding
back to their homeland in the subsequent decades — a theme that is also
discussed in detail in my new book "The Armageddon Code: One Journalist's Quest for End-Times
Answers."
"They went back to their
ancient homeland, speaking their ancient language ... using their ancient
currency, even," Lotz added. "And Jesus said that the generation that sees that take place is
the last generation."
She also invoked Matthew 24:14, which reads, "This gospel of the kingdom will
be preached in the whole world as a testimony to all nations, and then the
end will come," to point to another sign of the end that she believes
is unfolding.
"Right now, the gospel
is being preached to the whole world," Lotz said. "I believe my lifetime is the last
generation of human history."
She went on to discuss the power and importance
of prayer, saying that it is "critical" in determining the future of
America. Without God's intervention, Lotz argued that the fragmentation and
chaos in contemporary society would only continue.
"Every single area of
our existence and our culture — government, education, social, race, you name
it — has major problems," she said. "No one person can resolve all this
unless He's Jesus."
Lotz concluded, "America needs healing right now."
As TheBlaze previously reported, Lotz recently
made headlines after a years-old video featuring her proclaiming that "human history is winding down"
and that "we're living in the last
generation" before Jesus' return gained renewed interest last month.
