Don't you hate that? Not that I'm a Chrysler guy, and I'm sure the name isn't going to vanish, but it just seems as though some of our 'icons' are crumbling in this country. That's sad for several reasons. I was a child in the 70's, which weren't the greatest economically. But about the time I started to pay attention in the 80's we were entering a time of unparalleled prosperity in the US. I was proud to be an American, for sure. As I grew a bit older yet, I started to realize that God does this from time to time - setting up world powers and bringing them back down. It's all up to Him. Why does He do it?
For one, it will create a marked difference between our meager empires and the one He will set up on earth. We will see that sans corruption, a nation does not have to disolve or atrophy from within over time. His regime will not be subject to corruption. His power will not peak and wane. His sovereignty will be undeniable to every leader on earth, and there will be no freedom to protest Him publically at all - until the end. The Bible says He will rule with an iron scepter - that means He will be unmoved in His policy. It will be a great time to be 'all in' as a Christ-follower. It will be a horrid time to be an enemy of the Lord.
Unlike some, I do not think that technology will disappear during the Millennium. It will be in use during the entirety of the Tribulation. For those who survive it, it won't simply disappear. Jesus will most-likely reign over a modern society - proving that technology is not the cause of our sin. If my speculation is accurate, then that is good, good news for the car companies of the future.
