50 YEAR RETROSPECT - LOOKING BACK AT 1971


 

An upcoming Jubilee in 2021?

A revival swept the USA and then moved from nation to nation until it encompassed the world it began in February of 1970. But it came out of the dark days of racial tension from 1968-1970 In Minnesota, it began in the fall of 1971. Here we stand 50 years later, and God is laying out a Jubilee for the Jesus People Movement. Prophesied by Cindy Jacobs at least 6 years ago May 2, 2014.

The Backdrop for Revivalwhen the enemy comes in, like a flood the Lord raises up a standard. The bigger the attack the greater the revival.

The generations of the ’60s rejected traditional values and preferred to live life without restrictions. During that time there was also tremendous protest racial injustice, and the civil rights movement was instrumental in pointing out the destructive sin of racism. Political instability increased with the Cuban missile crisis. There was also great disillusionment as things turned violent with assassinations, Vietnam riots and protests, and many people felt society was coming apart. https://www.biola.edu/blogs/talbot-magazine/2020/the-jesus-people-movement-50-plus-years-later

The late 1960s marked one of the most tumultuous periods in American history. Anti-war protests reached a fever pitch, culminating in a near war-like confrontation at the 1968 Democratic National Convention in Chicago. At the same time, the successes of the Civil Rights movement were threatened by the assassination of Martin Luther King Jr. in April of the same year. This underlying cultural friction combined with the sexual revolution and significant increase in access to psychedelic drugs to give rise to an emerging counterculture that rejected what it viewed as mainstream America.

Colleges became the centers for revival. Most famously, Asbury College experienced a revival during a chapel service on February 3, 1970 that lasted 185 hours (16). Asbury students almost immediately began spreading out to testify, sparking similar revivals in surrounding churches and on other college campuses. In one such revival, Asbury students led services at the South Main Church of God in Anderson, Indiana, with services lasting 50 consecutive days.

SDS – the Weathermen

Political activist and SDS cofounder Tom Hayden (1939–) drafted The Port Huron Statement for the SDS national convention in 1962 in Port Huron, Michigan . The statement described SDS philosophy and also served as a general guide for the New Left (1960s and 1970s movement focusing on college campus mass protests and other radical actions). It began,

“We are people of this generation, bred in at least modest comfort, housed now in universities, looking uncomfortably to the world we inherit.”

The statement criticized modern American values and called for students to demand a truly “participatory democracy,” and to fight against social injustice and greed. The statement addressed a range of issues, primarily centered 1960 civil rights for African Americans = 2020 BLM

1960s Economic Equality vs. 2020 - BLM, Socialist, Communist ideals

Stop the buildup of nuclear weapons.

The Weathermen 1969 – Ann Arbor, Michigan 

The Weather Underground Organization (WUO), commonly known as the Weather Underground, was a radical left militant organization active in the late 1960s and 1970s, founded on the Ann Arbor campus of the University of Michigan. It was originally called the Weathermen. The WUO organized in 1969 as a faction of Students for a Democratic Society (SDS)[2] largely composed of the national office leadership of SDS and their supporters. Beginning in 1974, the organization's express political goal was to create a revolutionary party to overthrow American imperialism.

The FBI described the WUO as a domestic terrorist group,[3] with revolutionary positions characterized by black power and opposition to the Vietnam War.[2] The WUO took part in domestic attacks such as the jailbreak of Timothy Leary in 1970.[4][5] The "Days of Rage" was the WUO's first riot in October 1969 in Chicago, timed to coincide with the trial of the Chicago Seven. In 1970, the group issued a "Declaration of a State of War" against the United States government under the name "Weather Underground Organization".[6]

The Black Panther Party – 1966 Oakland, CA 

The Black Panther Party for Self-Defense (BPP) was founded in October 1966 in Oakland, California by Huey P. Newton and Bobby Seale, who met at Merritt College in Oakland. It was a revolutionary organization with an ideology of Black nationalism, socialism, and armed self-defense, particularly against police brutality. It was part of the Black Power movement, which broke from the integrationist goals and nonviolent protest tactics of the Southern Christian Leadership Conference led by Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. The BPP name was inspired by the use of the black panther as a symbol that had recently been used by the Lowndes County Freedom Organization, an independent black political party in Alabama.

In 2021 what can we expect to happen if history repeats itself? Can we expect another Jesus people movement across our nation and the world? As predicted by Cindy Jacobs and other prophetic voices?
