"The reality is that around the world, and certainly not just in the US, we are seeing government officials asserting they are above religion."
No Bob, that's not the reality at all. Government, as per your own Romans 13, which you fail to acknowledge because it goes against your need to feel persecuted, is trying to save lives and put an end to this nightmare.
People like you prolong it. It has nothing to do with prophecy. Nothing to do with "The Man of Sin." Nothing to do with you imagined end times. It has nothing to do with Jews not eating bats and rats and elephants nor does it have anything to do with blame. Shit happens on the planet Bob and good judgment and common sense along with human cooperation will go a hell of a lot further in solving this than your imaginary friends in high places ever will.
You're the prophet. Why did you fail to see this disaster coming? And posting the concerns of the medical profession, immunologist and those that prepare for such things over years of looking ahead in the evolution of viruses doesn't count as "prophecy" That's science and what immunologists do. We don't call them prophets and you're not one by a long shot.
And too...why aren't you promoting homeopathy as the cure to all things? We all know why don't we Bob? It fails to deliver, fails utterly in the proof department and would be prescribing quackery in times like this. And some government authority that is burdened with protecting the public might be giving you a call ala Romans 13 and the scientific and medical community as well to challenge your ignore-ance.
At any rate, we are not seeing government asserting they are above religion. We are seeing common sense and good judgement has to be practiced and sometimes enforced upon the ignorant, self righteous, need to feel persecuted and reckless Churches, pastors and members.
In this case, as with Dave Pack, this would YOU too.
