IN the NEWS - Jesuit Day in America

"Are we to wait until the fulfillment of the prophecies of the end before we say anything concerning them? 
Of what value will our words be then? 
Shall we wait until God’s judgments fall upon the transgressor before we tell him how to avoid them? 
Where is our faith in the word of God? Must we see things foretold come to pass before we will believe what He has said? In clear, distinct rays light has come to us, showing us that the great day of the Lord is near at hand, “even at the doors.” Let us read and understand before it is too late (Testimonies, Vol. 9, p. 20, E.G.W.).
 
As Joe Biden was inaugurated as the 46th President of the United
States, Jesuit priest Leo O’Donovan, former president of Georgetown Jesuit University, offered a prayer for Joe Biden and for our nation. Jesuit priest O’Donovan invoked Pope Francis while praying on the steps of the United States Capitol, a first in the history of presidential inaugurations. 
 
So today we had a Jesuit priest in America invoking a Jesuit pope in Rome during the transfer of power for the Office of President of the United States of America. 
 
Then Joe Biden used a “symbolic” Bible to demonstrate the
significance” of taking the oath to defend and protect the United States Constitution. He used the Jesuit translation called the Douay-Rheims Bible.
 
Not only is the Vatican attracting and influencing both the technical and religious worlds, not only is the Pope admired by politicians and business leaders, but now the Bishop of Rome has arrived at the Office of the President of the United States. Prophecy has described that this very scene would take place during the last days:

For all nations have drunk of the wine of the wrath of her fornication, and the kings of the earth have committed fornication with her, and the merchants of the earth are waxed rich through the abundance of her delicacies.” Revelation 18:3." AdventMessenger
