On April 2, 2009, the G20 nations met in London to attempt to come up with solutions to the world wide economic meltdown. There are some interesting quotes by world leaders that clarify the mind sets which presently prevail:
"We are on the verge of a global transformation. All we need is the right major crisis and the nations will accept the New World Order." --David Rockefeller
"Out of these troubled times ... a new world order can emerge," --Former President George H. Bush
"Globalization is not a random-walk process. It moves forward according to a tangible, coherent and well-planned strategy." -- Patrick Wood
It would seem that the present crisis is the opportunity they have been seeking, and that we now stand on the threshold of the establishment of the mechanism to bring about Global Government.
It seems that America is the obstacle standing in the way; America must be neutralized to allow the forces who desire the global government to have their way.
Henry Lamb says" "today, opposition to global governance has diminished in Congress and has vanished from the White House. With eyes wide open, the United States is welcoming global governance. This administration, with the approval of the majority of Congress, will cede our sovereignty to an international system that is beyond accountability and devoid of morality. The UN is eager to fund its nefarious adventures with money placed under its care by those who bought the promise of hope and blindly voted for change."
He goes on to say, "Once the UN has an independent revenue stream to fund its 'peacekeeping' forces, which can enforce treaties and the decrees of the international Criminal Court, there will be no force on earth with the power to overthrow it. When the United States realizes the true cost global governance, it will be much too late. The UN will control the flow of both money and energy available to the US."
He concludes "Obama and the current congressional majority will be long gone, leaving the next generation to curse their parents' stupidity - and only wonder what freedom was."
Even churches are being conditioned to conform to the coming global society. Consider the following statement by Rick Warren. "It's all about the global glory of God! We intend to leverage the attention that the Purpose Driven Life has garnered to bring about a whole new way of thinking and acting in the church about our responsibility in the world." This is the process of conforming the church to the world, a global church for a global society.
Those who understand the Word of God know that there is a far more significant purpose behind this whole movement. Satan is seeking to fulfill the long sought goal he declared in Isaiah 14: 13-14, "For thou hast said in thine heart, I will ascend into heaven, I will exhalt my throne above the stars of God: I will sit also upon the mount of the congregation, in the sides of the north: I will ascend above the heights of the clouds; I will be like the most High."
World government is being established in preparation for the ruler of the Revived Roman Empire, the antichrist, to come to power. Satan is doing what he always does; he works through men, deceiving them to accomplish his purposes.
We read about the final form of this coming World Government in Revelation 13: 7-8 "And it was given unto him to make war with the saints, and to overcome them: and power was given to him over all kindred, and tongues, and nations. And all that dwell on the earth shall worship him, whose names are not written in the book of life of the Lamb slain from the foundations of the world."
Verse 15-17 shines more light on this soon coming kingdom, "and he had power to give life unto the image of the beast, that the image should both speak, and cause that as many as would not worship the image of the beast should be killed. And he causeth all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and bond, to receive a mark in their foreheads: and that no man might buy or sell, save he that had the mark, or the name of the beast, or the number of his name."
For the believer there is good news in the midst of the coming darkness, before this world ruler comes upon the scene, we will be caught up to be with Christ forever. The trumpet is soon to sound!
