President Joseph Fielding Smith in the following passage has stated that he
believes that we are living in the days prophesied by Nephi when Satan’s kingdom would be
established “among all nations, kindreds, tongues, and people:
"The United States is not the kingdom of God, neither is England, Germany, or
France...Satan has control now, No matter where you look, he is in control, even in our own
land. He is guiding the governments as far as the Lord will permit him. That is why there is so
much strife, turmoil, and confusion all over the earth. One master mind is governing the nations
it is Satan himself (Smith, Doctrines of Salvation, Vol. 3, pp. 314-315)"
Why is the United States not the kingdom of God? Because it does not follow the constitution as it should. It has turned from God enough to where He can no longer claim it as His.
