Excerpt from the booklet:
Globalism: The Path to Armageddon
At the outset of the Gulf War in 1990, then President George H. W. Bush announced via global television: “Out of these troubled times, our fifth objective—a New World Order—can emerge; a new era, freer from the threat of terror, stronger in the pursuit of justice, and more secure in the quest for peace. An era in which the nations of the world, east and west, north and south, can prosper in harmony.... A hundred generations have searched for this elusive path to peace, while a thousand wars raged across the span of human endeavor. Today that new world is struggling to be born. A world quite different from the one we’ve known. A world in which the rule of law supplants the rule of the jungle.... Nothing will stand in the way of the New World Order.”
Bush’s vision for a New World Order quickly spawned many hastily written and rushed to press books on the subject by secular and Christian writers, including Pat Robertson, founder of the Christian Broadcasting Network and a former Presidential candidate. I have personally written about the New World Order in several of my books, beginning as far back as the mid-1970s.
President H. W. Bush was succeeded by yet another New Worlder President: Bill Clinton.
Two weeks before Clinton was sworn in as President he told the United Nations Association: “We must do more than talk about the New World Order.” After that, he publicly mentioned the New World Order only a few times, for there was mounting opposition to the globalist movement. The name, “New World Order,” almost overnight fell into disuse among politicians and the news media. But the New World Order had lost no momentum.
Henry Kissinger, one of the principal architects of the New World Order, said, “It [The New World Order] cannot happen without U.S. participation, as we are the most significant single component. Yes, there will be a New World Order, and it will force the United States to change its perceptions.” (World Affairs Council Press Conference, Regent Beverly Wilshire Hotel, April 19, 1994.)
When President George W. Bush was inaugurated for a second term, on January 20, 2005, his speech was essentially a mission statement for the New World Order, which he referred to as a “new order of the ages.” (“New order of the ages” is translated from novus ordo seclorum, the slogan that appears beneath the New World Order pyramid on the Great Seal of the United States.)
Today, the New World Order, by whatever name, is the driving force and objective of America-led globalism. And regardless of the good that its proponents envision it to be, it is no more than the inevitable evolution of Satan’s ill-fated, old world order that someday will be ruled by the Antichrist and fulfill its prophecy as Babylon the Great.
Following are but a few statements by New Worlders that reveal the movement’s chilling ideology.
Zbigniew Brezezinski, former National Security Advisor to the President, is a Kisinger disciple and one of the architects of the New World Order. He and David Rockefeller are co-founders of the Trilateral Commission, which, along with the Council on Foreign Relations, are two of many front organization for The Establishment’s New World Order. Brzezinski considers religion and nationalism to be enemies of the New World Order. In his 1969 book, Between Two Ages: America’s Role in the Technetronic Era, Brzezinski wrote: “[The] gradual shaping of a community of the developed nations would be a realistic expression of our emerging global consciousness; concentration on disseminating scientific and technological information would reflect a more functional approach to man’s problems; both the outlook that would gradually replace the institutionalized religious, ideological, and intensely national perspectives that have dominated modern history.”
Brock Chisolm, when director of the United Nations World Health Organization, used more direct and forceful language to convey the same New World Order strategy in this widely-quoted statement: “To achieve world government, it is necessary to remove from the minds of men their individualism, loyalty to family traditions, national patriotism, and religious dogmas.”
Based upon statements by those and other New World Order proponents, it is clear that the major obstacles to the New World Order are biblical Christians, Orthodox Jews, and fundamentalist Muslims. The Establishment is therefore doing all it can to instill among them a New World Order view. And today we are seeing the rise of New World Christians, New World Jews, and New World Muslims.
But more than two hundred years ago one of our nation’s founding fathers, John Adams, cautioned that: “Our Constitution was made only for a moral and religious people. It is wholly inadequate to the government of any other.” To restate that in negative terms, without a predominantly Christian populace, our form of government is doomed to failure. And our government’s path to a New World Order, without a predominantly Christian populace in America and in those countries which will join the New World Order, is a path leading to failure.
Former Secretary of State Henry Kissinger, one of the architects of the New World Order, wrote in the September 13, 2006 issue of The Washington Post, “We now know that we face the imperative of building a new world order or potential global catastrophe. It cannot be done alone by either side of the Atlantic. Is that realization sufficient to regenerate a common purpose?”
It might regenerate a common purpose, but its anti-Christian policy will, itself, bring about global catastrophe.
Let us not forget that others are fervently working toward a new world order of their own design—most prominently Islamists, Russia, and China. And the day is coming when those “kings” to the south and north and east of Jerusalem will oppose the Antichrist and his drive for world supremacy in what the Bible describes as preparation for the battle of Armageddon. But the battle will not take place because Jesus Christ will return to bring judgement on the nations of the world.
The “mystery” of Babylon
Babylon the Great is a “mystery” in that it has long existed in secrecy, with little detection. Some commentators on Bible prophecy believe Babylon will rise through a “revived Roman Empire”—the European Union. Others look for a revival of ancient Babylon in Iraq, and this theory is especially fueled by the American-led coalition that invaded the country in 1990 and overthrew its dictatorship in 2003. And still others, myself included, look for Babylon the Great to emerge through today’s globalist movement. Regardless of theories and speculation, the true identity of Mystery Babylon will become apparent through future history’s corroboration with Bible prophecy.
The Bible offers many clues to the identity of Mystery Babylon. Revelation 17 tells us that it will at first be a relatively young nation that will fulfill prophecies of a seventh imperialistic nation that will become an eight global empire, truly a world order (Revelation 17:11). It will be more powerful and more evil than all the empires of history. In its early years most of its people will worship God; but in the end, most will turn away from Him to worship the Antichrist. Satan will vest all his power in the Antichrist to “make war with the saints, and to overcome them. And the Devil will give authority to the Antichrist to rule over every tribe and people and tongue and nation” (Revelation 13:7. See also Revelation 17-19 and Jeremiah 50, 51).
What will happen to America?
The Bible tells us that God will use the Antichrist and the “ten kings” (Revelation 17:12) who support him in his drive for world domination to help carry out His purpose: “For God has put it in their [the ten kings] hearts to execute His purpose by having a common purpose, and by giving their kingdom [global empire] to the beast [Antichrist], until the words of God should be fulfilled” (Revelation 17:17). The Antichrist and ten kings, as leaders of the eighth empire (global Babylon) “will hate the harlot [seventh empire, which is national Babylon] and will make her desolate and naked, and will eat her flesh and will burn her up with fire” (Revelation 17:16). In today’s world, the New World Order fits the description of the eighth empire, or global Babylon, and the United States of America fits the description of the seventh empire, or national Babylon.
Consider again this statement by Henry Kissinger: “It [The New World Order] cannot happen without U.S. participation, as we are the most significant single component. Yes, there will be a New World Order, and it will force the United States to change its perceptions.”
With help from the False Prophet (Revelation 13:11-17) and Ten Kings (Revelation 17:12-17), the Antichrist will rule Mystery Babylon with an iron fist. The Ten Kings (literally “foundations of power”) can be understood by context to be a small group of men of great power and influence in their respective spheres of endeavor, which constitute the four pillars of Satan’s world order:
1. the intellectual and moral (Revelation 17:6—see also Revelation 6:9, 12:17, 13:7, 16:5, 6);
2. the economical and commercial (Revelation 17:4—see also Revelation 18:12-14);
3. the political (Revelation 17:2, 12-18);
4. the religious (Revelation 12, 17:4, 5).
Those “four pillars of civilization” (so-called by former Senator Barry Goldwater) are prophesied to come under control of the Antichrist in the last days (See Revelation 17 and 18).
All the natural people of the world will worship the Antichrist as their god (2 Thessalonians 2:3-12; Revelation 13:3-8). Many will participate in the persecution of believers, but God will preserve a remnant, as He always has done in ages past. When Christ returns, His mission will include the final destruction of Babylon (Revelation 19), and judgment against the Antichrist and his followers (Revelation 19:20, 21).
The spirit of Antichrist (1 John 4:3) and the spirit of the world (1 Corinthians 2:12), which could also be called the spirit of Babylon, can be found in the darkened hearts of unsaved people in virtually every part of the world.
