Question: Why isn't the United States mentioned in the Bible, concerning the Bible events of the future end times.

Answer: There are over 200 nations on the earth today, and most of them are not mentioned in the Bible. This is probably because they don't have any direct impact on the fulfillment of Bible prophecy. For example, we don't read about Sweden or Japan or Australia either. Why? Because they are not directly involved in end-time prophecy. But we do read where Jesus said, 'And this gospel of the kingdom will be preached in all the world as a witness to all the nations, and then the end will come' (Matthew 24:14). This certainly includes Sweden, Japan, and Australia...and the United States of America. So let's get to work!
