Rise and Fall of Nations

Rise and Fall of Nations
By Richard F. Ames

History shows us that great nations rise and fall. Babylon and Greece have fallen. The Roman Empire has come and gone, and will rise once more. Is it possible that the United States, like so many superpowers of years past, could be turned to ashes? What lessons can we learn from history, and from Scripture?

Where are the great empires of the past? Where is the Assyrian Empire? The Babylonian Empire? The Roman Empire? You can find what is left of them in museums, in ruins and in a few ancient stone buildings frequented only by modern tourists. Great nations rise and fall! Is it possible that the United States could be returned to ashes, like so many great nations that have gone before?
