AND THEN THE END WILL COME

Last week I discussed the evidence of our current day being like those in the “days of Noah”. This is a phrase Jesus used to describe the nature of the days immediately preceding his return (Matt 24:37). Today I would just like to speculate on how we might find ourselves (the US) as a part of a “one-world” government as described, in part, in Daniel chapter 2. In the interpretation of Nebuchadnezzar’s dream, Daniel described the major world powers that would determine world history. The head of gold was the kingdom of Nebuchadnezzar, the chest and arms of silver was the kingdom of the Medes/Persians, the third kingdom to rule the world represented by bronze were the Greeks, the fourth kingdom represented by iron were the Romans. The eastern and western capitols of Rome and Constantinople are represented by the two legs. The last world kingdom is represented by the two feet of an admixture of iron and clay and the toes representing the 10 nation confederacy comprising the revived Roman Empire. No where in this dream (literally fulfilled prophecy) is there any mention of the USA as a super power in the last days.

So let’s take a look at today’s news and imagine how we might find ourselves a part of “The New World Order” or one-world government. For those of you who may be old enough to remember the Carter administration, you may remember that government spending under Carter and the Democratic controlled congress was spiraling out of control. Interest rates were skyrocketing to all-time highs (18-20% for a mortgage) paralyzing the productivity of the country. This inflation was caused by over printing the US dollar. In those days Carter increased the currency in circulation by 12%. Fast forward to today. The current administration and congress are spending money we don’t have at a phenomenal rate never before seen. The current administration’s budget for this year is more than for every other presidential administrative budget in the history of the nation combined. They have increased the currency in circulation, not by 12% but by over 124%. Since the advent of the Federal Reserve Note, our dollar is actually based up nothing whatever. The government just prints it by fiat. This works out very well for absolutely nobody except government. It does however enslave the people to the government. In addition the Senate is about to vote in a government controlled health plan that will sink us so deep into debt that we won’t be able to get out. It doesn’t take a rocket scientist to figure out that this is unsustainable and our nation’s financial system will collapse. This will send the economies of all the other nations of the world into a tail-spin. The thought will be that the US is too big to fail (didn’t we just hear that about our banks?) and that a world wide currency and monetary system must be developed. Of course this will be controlled by the World Bank (already in existence) and administered by a world body (the UN?). When the US looses its currency it will lose its sovereignty. I believe then that in the mixture of violence and economic upheaval the world will look for someone to straighten this all out. Then someone will rise up; an economic, military and political genius who will be able to solve all these problems and bring peace to the Middle East. When you see him sign a 7 year peace treaty with Israel then know that terrible times like never before seen will happen. The anti-christ has made himself known.

In the mean time take some measures to help yourself through the coming difficult financial times. Get out of debt. Invest in something that will have value because our currency will be worthless. Save for the rainy days to come. Seek first the Kingdom of God and all these things will be added to you. Even so, come soon Lord Jesus.
