Appearance of a Great Saint in a Crisis such as this Pandemic
It is said that a great saint appeared when the world was in a crisis.
Christ Jesus appeared 2000 years ago when the Jewish world faced a crisis of a possible war with the Roman Empire. Moses appeared when Jewish people faced a crisis of extinction through slavery in Egypt. Abraham appeared when the ancient kingdom of Ur was being destroyed in the Mesopotamia.
Now, in the early 21st century after 2000 years of Christ Jesus, whose era had been 1300 years after Moses who had appeared 700 years after Abraham, the mankind and especially the U.S. are facing a crisis due to the corona-pandemic and the division within the nation and the society.
But can a great saint today appear in the world or the U.S.?
A crisis often causes madness or an abnormal psychological state in the society or the world. This corona-pandemic, the political and social division in the U.S., and the dangerous rise of economic and military power of China have posed a great risk to the world and the U.S.
Usually such a situation leads to a competition or battles among mad parties rather than between a sound party and a mad party. But, a great saint such as Christ Jesus has finally fixed the situation. Without such a great saint, the world or the society would start to get degenerated through such a crisis.
In this context, it can be said that if the U.S. society cannot produce such a great saint in this political confusion triggered by Trump, it might politically or socially undergo regression. Or if the world cannot produce such a great saint in this international confusion triggered by China, it might enter into a more dangerous era as the world after WWI and the Spanish Flu had led to the rise of Nazis and the outbreak of WWII.
A crisis in civilization or the world must be triggered by battles among mad parties. A crisis that might cause the end of the world should occur in such a situation. China seems to become one of mad parties as it generated this pandemic, in addition to various reports of its negligence of human rights and Christian values. But the U.S. might be also at the brink of political disruption, which would make it unable to effectively cope with the threat from China.
When darkness and desperation were so deep and strong, a great saint such as Christ Jesus appeared to save not only local or limited people but also eventually the human civilization and the world.
If Biden is not such a saint, we have to further wait and see the right time. But, in my feeling, this 21st century is a decisive time in terms of avoiding the end of the world, which is predicted in the Bible.
If a great saint such as Christ Jesus appears in the world or the U.S. in the early 20th century, the mankind would be able to survive this century and subsequent centuries or next 2000 yeas. But, in the worst case, WWIII would occur involving China, the U.S., etc.
Anyway, 2000 years have already passed since Christ Jesus. Anything historically decisive can happen in the world. We may be facing the decisive era like Jewish people after WWI and the Spanish Flu had faced the early 20th century or the era of Nazis and Hitler.

Luke 1 King James Version19 And the angel answering said unto him, I am Gabriel, that stand in the presence of God; and am sent to speak unto thee, and to shew thee these glad tidings.
20 And, behold, thou shalt be dumb, and not able to speak, until the day that these things shall be performed, because thou believest not my words, which shall be fulfilled in their season.
21 And the people waited for Zacharias, and marvelled that he tarried so long in the temple.
