One of the most intriguing questions surrounding Americans who study Bible prophecy is: Does the United States play a role in the end-times?

Many have postulated what they believe to be America's role in the Bible. Some feel that the United States is not mentioned at all, while others believe that the U.S. is at the center of prophecy as end-time Babylon the Great and that it will be totally destroyed coast-to-coast in a single moment. Both views have been overstated and understated to the extreme.

It is an undeniable fact that the United States is the most powerful country, or even empire, to ever have existed on Planet Earth. Is it not mentioned at all in the pages of the Bible?

In this section of Tribnews, we analyze how America may fit into prophecy, how the United States will be judged for its sin, and how the United States is part of the worldwide antimessiah/antichrist system known as "Babylon." Also discussed is the generalized Babylonian phenomenon, and how we can properly address the United States and where it might be in the Bible.
