Tour Overview
How did this biblical power begin? What local history shows and how that matches prophesy.
This is a guide-yourself type outline. You may choose to walk the freedom trail (Pin 23 to pin 66/ 68/ 71 dependng on where you get tired). You can skip pins that are off the red painted line if you choose, or you just see what sites are near your current location if you're meandering your own path. To get the most out of this tour please read this intro and view (no need to visit) all of the Golden Star icons to get the main theme (Points 13, 19, 23, 24, 25, 26)
As you visit these various locations meditate on the following questions - How did the colonies grow into the dual world power known in Revelation as the ‘Two-horned Beast'? How outmanned were the colonists? How did this power split apart then unite? During the period of prophetic weeds - How did religion support the war? Do you see the attitude as described in Daniel of a little horn which would "gain eyes and an arrogant mouth"?
America cost Britain 250 million pounds, 24,000 troops, 2,060 ships, and international humiliation – how are they allies instead of enemies? What were the foundations of American government vs what set up the Kingdom of God? And how does seeing prophecy fulfilled build your faith in the ones for our future?
Side point – how many ‘facts’ are well known but inaccurate? For example, Paul Revere ordered the lanterns to send the message – it was not him waiting to receive it or even the only messenger. Bunker Hill was actually Breeds Hill. The Boston 'Massacre' resulted in only 5 deaths. Washington Elm is not where George Washington took command of the troops.
