THE NEW WORLD ORDER
AND THE RAPID PROGRESS TOWARDS
THE MARK OF THE BEAST
By DON STANTON
“For the mystery of iniquity and lawlessness is already at work; but He who now
restrains will do so until He is taken out of the way. And then the lawless one will
be revealed whom the Lord will slay with the breath of His mouth and bring to an
end by the glory of His coming; that is, the one whose coming is in accord with the
activity of Satan, with great power and with all kinds of signs and counterfeit
miracles, and with all the deception of wickedness among those who are perishing,
because they would not receive the love of the truth which could have saved them.”

THE NEW WORLD ORDER
The expression “New World Order,” which we are hearing quite regularly these days, is not
new.
The Latin form of the term appeared on the Great Seal of America which was first used
publicly in 1782. Both sides of the Great Seal is printed on the reverse side of the current one
dollar note, since 1935.
The Latin phrase is Novus Ordo Seclorum, which means, “New Order of the Ages” or New
World Order.
THE GREAT SEAL OF THE UNITED STATES
THE REVERSE SIDE OF THE US ONE DOLLAR NOTE
The Great Seal of the United States is used to authenticate certain documents issued by the
US federal government. The phrase is used both for the physical seal itself (which is kept by
the US Secretary of State), and more generally for the design impressed upon it.
The design on the front of the great seal is the national coat of arms of the US which is
officially used on documents such as US passports, military insignia, embassy placards, and
various flags. As a coat of arms, the design has official colours; but the physical Great Seal
itself, as affixed to paper, is in monochrome - black/grey and white.
The Seal of the President of the US is directly based on the Great Seal, and its elements are
used in numerous government agency and state seals.
The coat of arms features a shield, which is supported by a bald eagle with its wings
outstretched. From the eagle’s perspective, it holds a bundle of 13 arrows in its left talon
2
(foot), and an olive branch with 13 leaves in its right talon, together symbolizing that the
USA has “a strong desire for peace, but will always be ready for war.”
The eagle has its head turned towards the olive branch. This is said to symbolize a preference
for peace. In its beak, the eagle clutches the motto E pluribus unum (“Out of Many, One”).
Over its head there appears a “glory” (or halo) with 13 stars on a blue field, arranged in rows
of 1-4-3-4-1, forming a six-pointed star.
On the reverse side of the seal is an unfinished pyramid. The capstone, suspended above
the pyramid, is a triangle with an eye in the centre, emitting a glory of light.
On the base of the pyramid is inscribed, the Roman numerals, MDCCLXXVI (1776) – the
year of the formation of the United States Union.
Above and below the pyramid are two Latin mottos:
1. “Annuit Coeptis”. This motto has 13 letters, and signifies that, “He has favoured our
undertakings.”
2. Novus Ordo Seclorum which means “New Order of the Ages” (New World Order).
The number 13 is featured nine times on the Great Seal.
* 13 stars (in the “glory” above the eagle’s head)
* 13 stripes on the shield
* 13 arrows in the eagle’s talon
* 13 olive leaves and 13 olives on the branch
* 13 brick levels of the pyramid
* 13 letters in the mottos “E pluribus unum”
* 13 letter in “annuit cœptis” and
* there are 52 characters on the whole seal - 4 x 13.
The number 13 refers to the original 13 states of the American Union.
There are various interpretations of the Great Seal. Some American Christians believe it is an
inspired symbol – a sign of God’s work in establishing the American republic. The number
13, some believe, represents unity.

Others claim the Great Seal of America, as printed on the dollar bill, uses Masonic emblems:
the eye in the pyramid, the eagle and the inscriptions are replete with secret Masonic
symbolism. http://www.masoncode.com/The%20Great%20Seal.htm
It is believed by many that the detached Capstone of the Pyramid represents Lucifer, who,
in the person of the Antichrist, will rule during the second half of the Great Tribulation.
The All-seeing eye in the Capstone is also known as the Eye of Horus,
the
Egyptian sun god, who is a form of Tammuz, and the ancient Canaanite god, Baal.
Christians have been led to believe that the government of the USA is based on the basic
principles of the Bible. But historical evidence argues against the view that those who
formulated the foundational documents of American government were fundamental
Christians. To the contrary, many of those who wrote and signed the Declaration of
Independence, the Articles of Confederation and the US Constitution, were Freemasons.
“Some of the greatest names of the American Revolution were Masons: Ethan
Alien, Edmund Burke, John Claypoole, Benjamin Franklin, John Hancock, William Daws,
John Paul Jones, Robert Livingston, Paul Revere, Colonel Benjamin Tupper, and George
Washington.
1776, as well as being the year of the Union’s foundation, was the year a secretive
organisation called The Illuminati, was founded by Adam Weishaupt, a professor of Canon
Law in Bavaria, Germany.
Weishaupt was born in 1748, and was credited as being “the profoundest conspirator that has
ever existed.” He had received early training under the Jesuits, but as a rebellious youth,
turned to radical and occult philosophy.
Before Weishaupt’s Illuminati was formed, there were many
WEISHAUPT
other secret societies such as the German Illuminists, and the French Martinists or French
Illumines.
Under the guidance of the latter sect, a wave of occultism swept over France, and lodges
everywhere became centres of instruction in the Cabala, magic, divination, alchemy, and
theosophy. Masonic rites degenerated into ceremonies for the evocation of spirits; and
women, who were now admitted to these assemblies, screamed, fainted, fell into convulsions,
and lent themselves to experiments of the most horrible kind.
Weishaupt, “the profoundest conspirator,” capitalized on the existing and rivalling societies,
and succeeded in consolidating control over many of them. From the very beginning, he
conspired to capture the Freemasons.
4
In 1777, Adam Weishaupt became a member of the Free-masons, which itself was, and still
is, an extremely secret society. The Illuminati infiltration of the Masonic Lodges was so
thorough, that for many years the European Lodges were filled with “Illumination.” The
Illuminati became an order of the Freemasons and the Freemasons became an order of the
Illuminati.
The Illuminati used the symbol of the “all-seeing eye,” as did the Freemasons, and other
groups such as the Rosicrucians. In fact, all three are believed to be linked.
Weishaupt’s Illuminati organisation promoted a long-term program of abolition:
1. Abolition of monarchy and all ordered government
2. Abolition of private property
3. Abolition of inheritance
4. Abolition of patriotism
5. Abolition of the family (i.e. of marriage and all morality), and the institution of the
communal education of children.
6. Abolition of religion. The replacement of the worship of God by the worship of “reason” rationalism.
Members were enlisted and brought into the Order, as Novices. These people were
“illuminated” with humanitarian ideas and conditioned to embrace the “higher mysteries.” As
they “progressed” they were promoted to higher levels, but only as they proved satisfactory
and reached the inner circles, were they allowed to see the real goal - “World Rulership.”
Only a handful of the most trusted initiates of the innermost circles, knew that Weishaupt was
the founder and head of the society.
The society had immense success in attracting prominent men throughout Europe, and even
in America. In 1798, George Washington, although a Mason, warned of the doctrine of the
Illuminati.
The Illuminati played a leading role in the French Revolution of 1789-94, using the “Jacobins
Club,” as a front. This club had a membership of 1300, composed of some of the most
influential men of France. They called for a New World Order and a “Universal Republic.”
ROTHSCHILD
Later, in the 1940s, the Illuminati formed fronts called the
Communist League, and the Socialist movement.
They also formed many other organisations and fronts throughout the world, in which the
“father of international banking,” Mayer Amschel Rothschild became deeply involved. A
New World Order was their common goal.
From the 1980s on, more and more leaders have begun to use this term. Mikhail Gorbachev
had a sweeping vision of a “new world order” for the 21st century.
Indian Prime Minister Rajiv Gandhi returned from China where he met Chairman Deng
Xiaoping, and told reporters, “One of the things that impressed me most was the vision of
Deng Xiaoping for a new world order.”
5
After meeting Soviet President Gorbachev in 1990, President George H W Bush (Senior)
said: “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.”
At the start of the first Gulf War, in 1991, the same President Bush said: “We have before us
the opportunity to forge for ourselves and for future generations a NEW WORLD ORDER - a
world where the rule of law, not the law of the jungle, governs the conduct of nations. When
we are successful – and we will be - we will have a real chance at this new world order, an
order in which a credible United Nations can use its peacekeeping role to fulfil the promise
envisioned by the UN’s founders.”
George H.W. Bush was a member of the Trilateral Commission which was founded in
1973 to work for the creation of a “New International Economic Order.”
“New World Order” and “New International Economic Order” are synonymous terms.
The TC has an elite worldwide membership of several hundred, including these Americans:
David Rockefeller, Henry Kissinger, Zbigniew Brzezinski, Robert S. McNamara, Paul A.
Volcker, and two of Obama’s top appointees, Timothy Geithner, and Susan Rice.
The Trilateral Commission is linked to other big organisations through interlocking
directorates such as The Council on Foreign Relations which has headquarters in
Manhattan, New York, and is a powerful “think tank” that influences national and
international agendas. Like the TC, the CFR is not so secretive; they declare their
membership and publish information on all types of issues.
Another global “think tank” is The Club of Rome which was founded in 1968 by the
Italian industrialist, visionary and humanist, Aurelio Peccei.
One group that is very secretive is the Bilderberg Conference which was founded in
1954. It brings around 130 global power brokers together ever year, most of whom are
persons of influence in the fields of politics, business and banking, to discuss world affairs in
total privacy. No news reports of their discussions are ever released.
All these organisations have global interests, and they would claim to be working for the
survival of the human race. That sounds good, and it may be correct, but the obvious fact is
that their world objectives happen to synchronise closely with the prophesied endtime regime
of the coming Man of Sin – the Antichrist. But “everyone” now seems to be joining the new
world bandwagon.
In 1991, Australian Prime Minister Bob Hawke began to echo the quest for a new world
order.
In 2004, Pope John Paul called for a “new international order” to solve conflicts and to
ensure peace.
COMMISSION ON GLOBAL GOVERNANCE
In 2003, the United Nations tabled a 410-page final report of the Commission on Global
Governance, dubbed “Our Global Neighbourhood.” The 28-member “independent
commission,” created by German Chancellor Willy Brandt, developed the following strategy:
“To represent a shot-across-the-bow of George Bush’s New World Order, and make clear that
now is the time to press for the subordination of national sovereignty to democratic
trans-nationalism.”
6
In the present economic and financial desperation, many leaders around the globe are
convinced, and are openly calling for the creation of a “New World Order.”
On Jan 5, 09, Dr Henry Kissinger was interviewed by CNBC on the floor of the New York
Stock Exchange. He responded to a question about President-elect Obama’s first actions as
President:
“He can give new impetus to American foreign policy ... I think that his task will be to
develop an overall strategy for America in this period, when really a ‘new world order’ can
be created. It’s a great opportunity. It isn’t such a crisis.”
Oh, really?
Kissinger earlier praised Obama’s appointees for economic recovery! Obama picked
Trilateral Commission wonder boy, Timothy Geithner, to be Secretary of the Treasury. The
rest of the team are protégés of Robert Rubin who was a Trilateralist and a former Treasury
Secretary under Bill Clinton.
Barack Obama’s top foreign policy advisor has been Zbigniew Brzezinski, the co-founder
of the Trilateral Commission along with David Rockefeller.
Various European and other world leaders are also calling for a New World Order.
On January 7, French President Nicolas Sarkozy said that “in the 21st century, there it is no
longer a single nation who can (independently) say what we should do or what we should
think.”
German Chancellor Angela Merkel said that the world “cannot continue as it is.” It needs
new global mechanisms.
For many years, both former British Prime Ministers, Tony Blair and Gordon Brown,
repeatedly called for a New World Order, but their cries have now intensified.
Interestingly, when President-elect Obama delivered a speech in 2008 to hundreds of
thousands in Germany, he stated, “Tonight, I speak to you not as a candidate for President,
but as a citizen — a proud citizen of the United States, and a fellow citizen of the world.”
The media hailed Obama for his vision of America and the New World Order.
Indeed, the chorus for a New World Order is being heard around the world. A sampling of the
global press:
♦ Africa: Time for a new world order
♦ Australia: We need a new world health order
♦ Canada: A new world order rising?
♦ China: Hu urges revamp of world finance system
♦ India: Plotting India’s route in the new world order
♦ Japan: New financial order will emerge from crisis
♦ Malaysia: Groups to call for new world order
♦ Qatar: Islam to emerge as the new world order

Conflicts across the globe and an international respect for
KISSINGER
Barack Obama have created the perfect setting for the establishment of a New World Order,
according to Henry Kissinger, the Nobel Peace Prize winner and former secretary of state
under President Nixon. Kissinger has long been an integral figure in US foreign policy,
holding positions in the Nixon, Ford and Reagan administrations. - www.worldnetdaily.com/
WHAT IS THE NEW WORLD ORDER?
What do they mean by a “New World Order”?
Is it simply a “new deal” – a better state of international affairs? Or is
it, as Willy Brandt said, a subordination of all nations to some form of world
government – or as they are calling it - “world governance”?
It has become increasingly clear that the “illuminated” seeds for the coming New World
Order, sown over the past 250 years, are now ready to produce a grand global harvest of one
world socialism.
Many world leaders are unanimous in declaring that three main things are necessary for
NWO success.
1. A One-World Government
2. A One-World Monetary-Economic System
3. A One-World Religion
This is the solution for Planet Earth! And the great majority of One-World supporters see no
sinister goals or dangers in this agenda. On the contrary they believe a NWO is highly
desirable; they believe, sincerely, that this is the answer – the solution for a world in deep
trouble.
We might be inclined to believe likewise, were it not for the Biblical prophecies that clearly
foretell the endtime worldwide dictatorship of “the Beast” – the Antichrist who will enslave
and destroy to an extraordinary degree. It is a Satanic plan, which the apostle Paul describes
as “the mystery of iniquity.”
Look at this very revealing and important prophecy:
“Now concerning the coming of our Master, Y’shua the Messiah, and our gathering
together to (meet) Him, brethren, we ask you not to be quickly shaken or alarmed by
some prophecy, or report, or a letter (alleged to be) from us, to the effect that the Day of
the LORD (the Great Tribulation) has already come.
“Let no one deceive you in any way, for that Day (the Day of the LORD) will not come
unless the apostasy, (the predicted falling away from the faith), comes first, and the Man
8
of Lawlessness (that is, the Man of Sin) is revealed, the son of destruction, who opposes
and exalts himself above everything that is called God or that is worshipped, so that he
takes his seat in the temple of God, proclaiming that he himself is God. Do you not
remember that while I was still with you, I was telling you these things?
“And you know what is restraining him now, so that he may be revealed at the proper
time. For the mystery of iniquity and lawlessness is already at work; but He (the
Holy Spirit) who now restrains will do so until He is taken out of the way.
“And then the lawless one will be revealed whom the Lord will slay with the breath of
His mouth and bring to an end by the glory of His coming; that is, the one whose coming
is in accord with the activity of Satan, with great power and with all kinds of signs and
counterfeit miracles, and with all the deception of wickedness among those who are
perishing, because they would not receive the love of the truth which could have saved
them.” (2 Thessalonians 2:1-10)
To summarize this prophecy:
1 The evil plan of Satan has been working down through the centuries.
2 The Day of the LORD - the Great Tribulation will come on the whole world.
3 Before the Tribulation begins there will be an apostasy - a falling away from the truth, and
the Man of Sin will be revealed.
4 The Man of Sin will be revealed only after the Restrainer (the Holy Spirit) is taken out
the way.
of
(The Body of believers which is “the Body of Christ” - will also be taken away - as the Holy
Spirit permanently indwells the Body. He cannot leave them. So the Holy Spirit escorts the
Body to meet the Master in the clouds, and then takes them to the Heavenly City. This is
The Rapture.)
5 The lawless one (Antichrist) will then engage in all sorts of satanic activity to totally
deceive the people who did not receive the truth, and were left behind. His deception is
maintained so that his evil agenda can be fulfilled.
6 The evil one himself will be destroyed by the Heavenly Master, Y’shua, when He returns in
power and glory at the end of the seven year Tribulation.
GOOD NEWS and BAD NEWS
This prophecy contains terrible news for the world outside of God’s covenant of salvation.
But there is good news for the Body of Believers in Christ.
“The mystery of iniquity” is the evil plan of Satan to establish his control over mankind.
Already he has achieved that to a very great degree - throughout the centuries, and throughout
the nations worldwide today. His plan in the endtimes is a final attempt to destroy man’s faith
in the Almighty God, the Eternal One.
Satan’s plan is to inspire and empower his deceived followers to establish a one-world regime
to which every person on earth will be required, on pain of death, to give allegiance. That
allegiance, however, will involve the worship of Satan and the Man of Sin who will reign
over the earth.
The worldwide reign of Antichrist stretches over 3½ years - the second half of the
Tribulation. And it will be the most horrendous, evil period ever, of human history.
“For then there will be great tribulation, such as has never occurred since the beginning of
the world until now; and there will be nothing like it again.” (Matthew 24:21)
9
That’s the horrific news. Now the ...
GOOD NEWS FOR BELIEVERS
The good news is for those who belong to Y’shua the Messiah – Jesus Christ. And those
who belong to Him, are those who have deliberately responded to His invitation:
“Come unto Me, and I will give you eternal life.”
“Come to Me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest.” (Matthew
11:28)
“I tell you the truth, he who hears My Word, and believes in Him who sent Me, has
eternal life and will not come into judgment, but has passed out of death into life.”
(John 5:24)
And the good news for true believers, moreover, is that the Messiah is coming to deliver them
from this evil world, and to keep them from the hour of trial and wrath – the seven years of
Great Tribulation.
The Scriptures assures believers:
“But since we are of the day, let us be sober and self-controlled, putting on the
breastplate of faith and love, and as a helmet, the hope of salvation. For God has not
destined us to suffer His wrath, but to receive salvation through our Master, Y’shua
the Messiah, who died for us, so that whether we are awake or asleep, we will live
together with Him. Therefore encourage one another and build up one another, just as
in fact you are doing.” (1 Thessalonians 5:8-11)
The Saviour Himself says to His people:
“Because you have kept the word of My patient endurance, I also will keep you from
the hour of trial which is about to come upon the whole world, to try those who live on
the earth. I am coming quickly - soon!” (Revelation 3:10-11)
(Please note: this word of the Master is not saying, “If you endure you will be kept from the
hour.” It is the Messiah who has endured; it is He who went all the way to Calvary to
accomplish the plan of God for our salvation.
And it is we believers who keep the word of His endurance – upholding the truth of His
sacrifice and redemptive work at Calvary. All saved people believe in the Saviour’s work at
Calvary, and they are covered by the promise to be kept from the hour of trial.
This is not a question of the Body of Christ being kept in the trial. They will be kept from
it – by His coming at the Rapture. And He says, I AM COMING QUICKLY.
The Master also gives assurance to His people in these alarming times when the New Satanic
World Order appears very imminent:
“Let not your heart be troubled; believe in God, believe also in Me. In My Father’s
House are many dwelling places; if it were not so, I would have told you, for I am going
there to prepare a place for you. And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come
again and receive you to Myself, so that you also may be where I am.” (John 14:1-3)
This is the Rapture – the “catching up” that the Master is promising.
10
THE RAPTURE AND REVEALING
Now we need to recognise there is a distinction between the Rapture of the Church, and the
Revealing of the Master as King of Kings.
The Rapture is to deliver His Body from the world that is to undergo the Great Tribulation.
“For the Master Himself will descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the
archangel, and with the trumpet call of God. Then the dead in Christ - those who died
with faith in the Messiah - shall rise first. Then we, the living believers who remain,
will simultaneously be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the
Master in the air. And so we will be with the Master for ever.” (1 Thessalonians 4:16-17)
“For the grace of God that brings salvation has appeared to all men, instructing us to
deny ungodliness and worldly passions, and to live sensible (self-controlled), upright and
godly lives in this present age, awaiting and looking for the blessed hope - the glorious
appearing of our great God and Saviour, Y’shua the Messiah; who gave Himself for
us, that He might redeem us from all lawlessness (all wickedness), and purify for
Himself a people who are uniquely His own; people zealous to do good works.” (Titus
2:11-14)
The Revealing of the King of Glory takes place when He comes at the end of the
Tribulation to destroy the Antichrist, to cast Satan into the bottomless pit, and then to
establish the Kingdom of God worldwide.
“Let the rivers clap their hands. Let the mountains sing together for joy, before YHWH,
for He is coming to judge the earth. He judges the world in righteousness, and the
peoples with equity.” (Psalm 98:8-9)
“And then there was One like the Son of Man, coming in the clouds of heaven. He
came up to the Ancient of Days and was presented before Him. Then He was given
authority, glory and a kingdom, that all the peoples, nations, and men of every
language should serve Him. His dominion is an everlasting dominion that will not pass
away, and His kingdom is one that will never be destroyed.” (Daniel 7:13-14)
(Messiah’s revealing as Judge and King has been prophesied in many scriptures, including
Isaiah 40:10; Zechariah 14:3-5; Jude 14-15; Revelation 1:7, 19:11-16.)
So my dear reader, if you belong to the Messiah (Jesus Christ), you can eagerly look for the
Blessed Hope – the coming of your Saviour to take you to the Father’s House.
And there’s encouragement also for us today from the early church leader, James, who, after
prophesying about the endtime financial meltdown (see James 5:1-6), says:
“Be patient, therefore, brethren, until the coming of the Master. See how the farmer
waits expectantly for the precious ‘fruit of the earth,’ waiting patiently until the land
receives the early and late rains. You too be patient. Establish your hearts, for the
coming of the Master is near.” (James 5:7-8)
These are very important and comforting words for those “in Christ” today!
BUT IF YOU ARE NOT YET SAVED ...
For those who have not taken refuge in Y’shua (Jesus), “the Rock of Ages,” the Scriptures do
not give good news. There is only a terrifying expectation of seven years of trial and the
wrath of God.
Oh dear lost soul! If you should survive the nuclear holocaust that has been predicted by the
prophets, you will be destined to live under the satanic dictatorship of Antichrist’s New World
Order.
11
My dear reader, if your name is not in God’s Book of Life, you are in a most dangerous
position. I plead with you; flee from the wrath that’s coming! Flee to the Rock of Ages. Get
the penalty of sin lifted from off your neck!
“I preached Good News to you ... that the Messiah died for our
sins, according to the Scriptures, and that He was buried, and that He was raised on
the third day according to the Scriptures.” (1 Corinthians 15:2-4)
“Of Him (Y’shua) all the prophets bear witness that through His Name, everyone who
believes in Him has received forgiveness of sins.” (Acts 10:43)
Oh unsaved soul! Call upon the Name of Y’shua the Messiah while you can! Right now is a
very good time to get saved! As the Bible says:
“Now is ‘the well-accepted time’; now is ‘The Day of Salvation’.” (2 Corinthians 6:2)
“Seek YHWH the LORD while He may be found. Call upon Him while He is near.”
(Isaiah 55:6)
“WHOEVER WILL CALL UPON THE NAME OF THE LORD WILL
BE SAVED.” (Romans 10:13)
To help you make the right decision and to express faith, turn to the decision prayer at the
back of this book, and settle the matter of your salvation today!
Now let’s look at how the New World Order is progressing.
ONE-WORLD GOVERNMENT IS COMING
The Book of Revelation describes the worldwide reign of the satanically-empowered dictator,
who is described as the Beast, and is also called the Man of Sin, and The Antichrist. These
next verses summarize his regime, which can truly be called Satan’s New World Order.
“The beast which I saw was like a leopard, and his feet were like those of a bear, and his
mouth was like the mouth of a lion. And the dragon (Satan) gave the beast his power and
his throne and great authority ... And the whole earth was amazed and followed after
the beast; and they worshipped the dragon because he gave his authority to the beast …
authority to act for 42 months was given to him ... authority over every tribe, people,
tongue and nation.” (Revelation 13:2-7)
Some years ago I remember reading a statement of the powerful Chase Manhattan Bank
chairman, David Rockefeller. He said: “We are just one major crisis away from a New
World Order.”
Well, there have been a number of crises since he made that statement, but today, as Robert
Pastor (below) says, “We now have the mother of all crises.”
A CRISIS MADE TO ORDER?
12
Dr. Robert A. Pastor, the principal visionary of the North American Union, stated in 2007:
“What I’m saying is that a crisis is an event which can force democratic governments to
make difficult decisions like those that will be required to create a North American
Community,” he said.
“It’s not that I want another 9/11 crisis, but having a crisis would force decisions that
otherwise might not get made.”
“So, now we have the mother of all crises, and on a global scale at that: financial,
political, and religious.”
These are some recent news headlines ...

global warming crisis, the global war on terror, by population growth, and by many other
crises.
OUT OF CHAOS
A NEW WORLD ORDER
By JOSEPH FARAH
WORLD NEW DAILY
Dr Henry Kissinger wrote a very important article in the International Herald Tribune. (Jan.
12, 2009). “I believe it was meant as a signal – marching orders, if you will, for a disparate
band of elitists determined to bring about a new form of global rule that will supersede our
notions of national sovereignty, limited government and personal freedom.
“I would also offer it up as exhibit A in making the case that our current financial crisis is
almost entirely manufactured by forces trying to bring about the long-hailed “new world
order.”
Here is how that plan is going to work: America, the most prosperous and freest nation on
earth, will be brought to its knees in an economic leveling process that will purposely make
it reliant on other nations of the world – so much so that America will, in the hopes of people
like Kissinger and David Rockefeller, eagerly accept and submit to world government.
Kissinger said: “The alternative to a new international order is chaos.” In other
words, that’s the choice – chaos or submission to rule by an unaccountable global elite.
Kissinger goes on to predict what will happen – (and it is happening already): There would be
“rescue packages” designed by domestic governments relying on seemingly unlimited
13
credit – the mirage that created the crisis in the first place. And here’s where Barack Obama
fits into the plan:
“Not since the inauguration of President John F. Kennedy half a century ago has a new
administration come into office with such a reservoir of expectations.
“It is unprecedented that all the principal actors on the world stage are avowing their
desire to undertake the transformations imposed on them by the world crisis in
collaboration with the United States.
“The extraordinary impact of the president-elect on the imagination of humanity is an
important element in shaping a new world order. But it defines an opportunity, not a
policy.”
Kissinger hints that even the fear-inducing terror of global jihad may be part of the
orchestrated plot by the masters of the universe.
“The ultimate challenge is to shape the common concern of most countries and all
major ones regarding the economic crisis, together with a common fear of jihadist
terrorism, into a common strategy reinforced by the realization that the new issues like
proliferation, energy and climate change permit no national or regional solution,” he
writes.
What Kissinger and his friends in the Council on Foreign Relations, Trilateral Commission
and Bilderberg Group want to see and construct is a “permanent” form of global
governance.
And they seek to serve as the architects of a new empire.

GLOBAL TELEVISION
FOR OUR FUTURE
GLOBAL LEADER
A commentator writes:
FEB9/09. Surprise and even shock were among the
reactions to my recent column about how elite members
of the World Economic Forum (WEF) meeting in
Davos, Switzerland, were considering a
proposal for a new global television network to usher in a state of “GLOBAL
GOVERNANCE.” It sounded authoritarian, even totalitarian, to some.
The media proposal, which was included in “The Global Agenda 2009”
report, is to create “a new global network” with “the capacity to connect the world, bridging
cultures and peoples, and telling us who we are and what we mean to each other.”
Several prominent US media figures signed on to the alarming and controversial proposal.
This outlandish and frightening proposal doesn’t come from a fringe organization. The WEF
is an exclusive club of very rich and powerful people from around the world.
14
It describes itself as “an independent international organisation committed to improving the
state of the world by engaging leaders in partnerships to shape global, regional and industry
agendas.”
The media proposal was developed by one of several “Global Agenda Councils” under the
auspices of the WEF. - www.worldviewtimes.com/
ONE - WORLD
ECONOMIC ORDER
IS COMING
One sinister aspect of the coming global financial system is the requirement and mechanism
to number and control the world’s populations. The prophecy is stark and alarming:
“And he (the False Prophet — the accomplice of the Antichrist) compels all, small and
great, rich and poor, free and slave, to receive a mark on their right hands, or on their
foreheads, so that no one should be able to buy or to sell, except the one who has the
mark, either the name of the beast or the number of his name ... 666.”
(Revelation 13:16-18)
The current global financial crisis is being used to call for the completion of the electronic
system that has been building up for many decades, and that will help to fulfil the prophecy.
FOREIGN ECONOMISTS URGE “GLOBAL PLAN”
Leaders and economists from Western Europe to East Asia have urged the US to go beyond
reviving a failed domestic bailout and start working on a new global financial system.
Associated Press Traders at MICEX, the Moscow Interbank Currency Exchange, watched
and waited during a tense session in Moscow when stock indexes sank despite a two-hour
trading halt.
“The Americans don’t have a choice — they must absolutely have a global plan,” says
Christian Noyer, head of the French central bank in Paris.
David Smick, a global strategist, and author of “The World Is Curved: Hidden Dangers of
the Global Economy,” said the US president should immediately call for a second “Bretton
Woods” conference to devise a new doctrine of international finance.

TIME MAGAZINE PREDICTS “NEW WORLD ORDER”
WITH INTERNATIONAL CURRENCY
TIME magazine commented recently: In recent weeks, the world has been
politely standing by and watching how things play out with the fiscal
stimulus and latest bank bailout plans in Washington. Yes, there’s been
some grumbling overseas about “buy American” provisions in the stimulus
bill, but for the most part, officials elsewhere don’t want to step on the toes
of a President to whom they are favorably disposed. They also don’t want to
endanger legislation that they hope will help jump-start the global economy.
Just wait a couple of months, though. Politicians from Beijing to Berlin to Brasília see the
current crisis as the product of a messed-up global financial infrastructure dominated by the
US, and they will soon be pushing for big changes - whether Americans like them or not.
An unofficial meeting has already taken place, at the World Economic Forum in Davos,
Switzerland, where G-20 officials (with the conspicuous exception of those from the U.S.)

made speeches, conversed in the halls and gave a sense of the direction in which the world
outside the U.S. wants to head. - www.time.com/
“ECONOMIC CRISIS, THE BIRTHPANGS OF
BROWN
A NEW GLOBAL ORDER”
Near the end of his term, former British PM Gordon Brown declared:
“The economic crisis should be treated as “the difficult birth-pangs of a new global order.”
In a speech he promised to fight to prevent the UK and other countries retreating into
protectionism. Brown called for “new rules” for international trade, warning against
“pessimism” and “muddling through.” - news.bbc.co.uk/
Mr Brown also spoke of the possibility of a global new deal that will involve “all the
countries of the world in sorting out and cleaning up the banking system.”
“There is the possibility of all the different countries of the world coming together to agree to
the expansion in the economy that is necessary to restore confidence and to give people jobs
and growth and prosperity for the future.”
ECONOMIC MELTDOWN
AN EXCUSE FOR A “NEW WORLD”
Leaders at global forum see money crisis as
chance to expand government control.
A call to utilize the current global economic crisis as a panic in which governments
worldwide can move to nationalize banks, is emerging after the 2009 World Economic Forum
in Davos, Switzerland.
The forum’s founder, Klaus Schwab, told CNN the current global economic slowdown is a
“trans-formational crisis” that should be utilized to shape a “new world.”
“Above all else this is a crisis of confidence,” Schwab said. “To restore confidence you have
to establish signposts that the world after the crisis will be different. We have to create a new
world and that is what Davos 2009 is all about – serving society.”

GERMANY SUGGESTS A UN ECONOMIC COUNCIL
16
Calling for a shake-up of the global financial order,
ANGELA MERKEL
Germany’s chancellor suggested at the same World Economic Forum in Davos that a UN
Economic Council may be needed to tackle global economic problems.
Pointing out that co-operation among international financial institutions has failed to protect
the world against the worst financial crisis in decades, German Chancellor Angela Merkel
called for the forging of a new charter.
“This may even lead to a UN Economic Council, just as the Security Council was created
after World War II,” she told the Forum in Switzerland. - www.worthynews.com/
NAZARBAYEV
KAZAKHSTAN PRESIDENT:
“WORLD NEEDS A SINGLE CURRENCY”
Kazakh President Nursultan Nazarbayev has called for the creation of a single world currency
called the “acmetal” as a means of combating the worsening global financial crisis.
“In our view, we must create a single world currency under the aegis of the United Nations,”
Nazarbayev said a day before a major economic conference opened in his Central Asian
country. “We must make a transition to an absolutely new global currency system based on
legitimacy and, in view of all countries, one single monetary system,” he told a meeting of
the Eurasian Association of Universities.
This is the first time Nazarbayev has spoken publicly about the need for a single world
currency although he has previously written about it in an article calling for a currency called
“acmetal” (a combination of “acme,” a Greek word meaning the peak or the best, and
“capital”).
Kazakhstan, an energy-rich Central Asian state, has enjoyed growth rates of up to 10 per cent
over the last years but it has been hit, like its ex-Soviet neighbours, by the credit crunch as
well as the dramatic fall in oil prices. - www.sbs.com.au
In 2003, Nursultan Nazarbayev also called for a United Nations of Religions. (see item
further down).
RUSSIA PROPOSES A
“GLOBALIZATION CONTROL SYSTEM”
A story in the Moscow Times said that at a 2009 G20 meeting of world leaders in London, the
Kremlin proposed a new global common currency system that will replace the US dollar as
the international currency of choice.
17
A couple of days earlier, a Kremlin website proposed the creation of a globalization control
system.
ONE - WORLD
RELIGION IS COMING
The ecumenical (religious unity) movement has been working diligently for many decades to
establish a united global religious entity.
A multitude of organisations, big and small, have been formed, and many multi-cultural
forums held to work towards what is a considered an essential and desirable goal.
“Why should we fight in the Name of God,” is one of their slogans. “Tolerance, mutual
respect, peace, and unity” are key ecumenical words.
THE WORLD COUNCIL OF CHURCHES
was founded in 1948, and is a growing “worldwide fellowship of 349 churches seeking unity,
a common witness, and Christian service.”
Whereas the World Council of Churches is an amalgam of non-Catholic churches, the WCC
is being increasingly affiliated with the Roman Catholic Church.
POPE AND WCC CALL FOR UNITY
Pope Benedict XVI and the general secretary of the World Council of Churches, Samuel
Kobia, met at the Ecumenical Centre in Geneva, on 20 January 2008, to pray for Christian
unity.
At the centennial of the “Week of Prayer for Christian Unity” which began on January 25, in
Rome, the head of the WCC - the Ecumenical Body which links most non-Catholic Christian
faiths, called for full communion and unity among all denominations.
The coming WORLD RELIGION, however, is not a united Christianity. It incorporates
various multi-religious, organisations, including the ...
THE PARLIAMENT OF WORLD RELIGIONS
The first PWR was held in 1893. The second was in 1993,
and since then it has been held every few years.
The next is coming up in 2014.
THE UNITED RELIGIONS INITIATIVE
URI had its beginnings in 1997. In 2001 it became an official NonGovernment organisation affiliated with the UN.
URI is billed as “a global grassroots interfaith network that cultivates peace and justice by
engaging people to bridge religious and cultural differences and to work together for the good
of their communities and the world.”
18
The Bible, however, paints a picture of united religion as a blasphemous, immoral,
abominable, the “mother of harlots.”
She is called “Mystery Babylon,” and is pictured riding upon a beast that has seven heads; the
heads represent the seven historical Biblical empires that have supported Babylonianism
since the time of the Tower of Babel. The seventh head is the confederation of the ultimate
Beast – the Antichrist.
In the Biblical picture, Mystery Babylon and the Beast are seen riding together in power in
the endtimes. The Beast uses his partner to consolidate his global supremacy, and then he
turns against her and destroys this religious amalgam.
The prophecy is in the Book of Revelation. Look at chapter 17:1-7, 15-18:
“Come, I shall show you the judgment of the great harlot who is sitting upon many
waters, with whom the kings of the earth committed fornication; indeed those living who
dwell on the earth were made drunk with the wine of her immorality. Then he carried me
away in the Spirit into a wilderness. There I saw a woman sitting on a scarlet beast
that was full of blasphemous names and had seven heads and ten horns.
“And the woman was arrayed in purple and scarlet, and glittered with gold, precious
stones and pearls; and in her hand she had a golden cup full of abominable, repulsive
things and the filth of her immorality; and on her forehead there was inscribed a name
with a mysterious meaning,
BABYLON THE GREAT,
THE MOTHER OF HARLOTS AND OF
THE ABOMINATIONS OF THE EARTH.
“I saw that the woman was drunk with the blood of the set-apart people of God, and
with the blood of the witnesses of Y’shua - those who had died as martyrs because of
their testimony to Y’shua. And when I saw her, I was utterly astounded and wondered
deeply. And the messenger said to me;
“‘Why do you wonder? I will tell you the meaning of the mystery of the woman … The
waters which you saw, where the harlot sits, are peoples, multitudes, nations and
languages. The ten horns which you saw, along with the beast, will hate the harlot.
“They will bring her to ruin and leave her naked; they will eat her flesh and will
burn her up with fire, for God has put it into their hearts to execute His purpose by
having a common purpose, and by surrendering their sovereignty to the beast, until the
words of God are fulfilled. The woman you saw is that great city which reigns over the
kings of the earth’.”
19
The ecumenical movement has developed over six decades, since the World Council of
Churches was formed in 1948. Here are some of the more recent developments:
RELIGIOUS LEADERS GATHER IN
COLORADO
About 150 spiritual leaders from around the world descended upon Aspen, in Colorado, US,
in 2009, to work together over four days to form a collective voice of peace in an effort to
bring healing to the nation (US), which is facing unprecedented challenges.
Included among the group were Father Thomas Keating, senior monastic, St. Benedict’s
Monastery in Old Snowmass; Rabbi Zalman Schachter-Shalomi, founder of the Jewish
Renewal Movement; Ven. Bhikkhu Bodhi, chairman of the American Buddhist Association;
Rev. Joan Brown Campbell, former general secretary of the National Council of Churches;
Swami Atmarupananda, senior monastic of the Ramakrishna Mission; Imam Mohamed
Bashar Arafat, president of Civilizations Exchange & Co-operation Foundation, and Brother
Achalananda, senior monastic of the Self-Realization Fellowship, and many others.
“It’s so great to have these spiritual leaders of all faiths in Aspen and at the Institute, which
was founded on mind, body and spirit,” said Rev. Dr. Gregg Anderson, chaplain of the Aspen
Chapel.
Organizers said that the religious voice of the Fundamental Christian Right has
dominated the country for several years and it represents only a minority of Americans.
That’s why the initiative conducted an extensive search to find respected leaders from the
Hindu, Buddhist, Sufi, contemplative Christian, Jewish and Muslim faiths — who aren’t
advocating for the superiority of one faith.
Rather, the intention is to draw upon a collective wisdom to reflect on how to address the
most pressing issues facing the nation — the economic crisis, increasing poverty,
environmental degradation and climate change, and the fear that has permeated the nation
since the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks. - www.aspentimes.com
INTERFAITH MEETING
IN SPAIN
KING ABDULLAH
CALLS FOR UNITY
AMONG RELIGIONS
King Abdullah of Saudi Arabia exhorted followers of the world’s
leading faiths to turn away from extremism and embrace a spirit of
reconciliation, saying at the start of an interfaith conference in Spain
that history’s great conflicts were not caused by religion itself but by
its misinterpretation.
“My brothers, we must tell the world that differences don’t need to lead to disputes,”
Abdullah said. “The tragedies we have experienced throughout history were not the fault of
religion but because of the extremism that has been adopted by some followers of all the
religions, and of all political systems.”
Abdullah’s comments came at the start of the World Conference on Dialogue, in July
2008, which was organized by the Islamic World League under an initiative of Abdullah.
The meeting aimed to bring Muslims, Christians and Jews (and others) closer together, and to
achieve concrete results in settling inter-religious disputes and violence.
20
Around 300 participants, including Muslim, Buddhist, Christian, Jewish and other religious
leaders as well as politicians and experts, attended the three-day gathering.
Spanish King, Juan Carlos, also addressed the gathering at a ceremonial palace on the
outskirts of Madrid, saying he hoped the conference would be successful. “We have always
been interested in strengthening peace, dialogue and co-operation on the international stage,”
he said.
The Saudis have billed the gathering — which also included Buddhist and Hindu participants,
as well as practitioners of several Eastern religions — as a strictly religious affair.
There’s to be no mention of hot-button issues such as the war in Iraq, the Israeli-Palestinian
conflict, Iranian nuclear ambitions or rising oil prices.
Abdullah has made reaching out to other faiths a hallmark of his rule since taking over the
oil-rich kingdom following the death of his half brother in 2005.
He met with Pope Benedict XVI late last year, the first meeting ever between a pope
and a reigning Saudi king.
UNR
A CALL FOR A
UNITED NATIONS OF RELIGIONS
A 2-day conference in Kazakhstan, way back in Oct 2002, witnessed leaders of 18 religions
agreeing to meet regularly under the banner, “Congress of World Traditional
Religions.”
The congress was chaired by President Nursultan Nazar-bayev, who initiated the idea of
holding the meeting in Kazahkstan’s new capital city, Astana.
Speeches touched on how to address differences between religions, the issue of terrorism, and
the need for more dialogue. One delegate expressed the hope that the group would become a
“United Nations of Religions.”
The secretary-general of the Muslim World League, Sheikh Abdullah Al-Turki, from
Saudi Arabia, said the Koran prohibits any acts of violence.
He told the delegates, “Islam is against all killing that is without a just cause. We cannot
accept those who say that Islam is a religion that kills or harms others.” He said Muslims
should oppose those who use religion for political purposes.
The senior Jewish representative at the conference, Jonah Metzger, the chief rabbi of
Israel, spoke of the need for greater understanding between faiths, directing his remarks to
the delegations from Saudi Arabia, Iran, Pakistan and Egypt who were sitting just a short
distance away.
Metzger invited all of those present to come to Jerusalem, which he called by its Palestinian
name of “Al-Quds.”
During the conference there were private meetings between delegates from the Catholic and
Russian Orthodox churches, which have spiritual differences going back centuries.
Hindus from India also had a chance to talk with their historical Muslim adversaries from
Pakistan. Representatives of other faiths at the congress included Taoists and Buddhists from
China, and a Shinto delegation from Japan.
The delegates agreed that Kazakhstan would be the appropriate place for a new, permanent
organisation to allow for more dialogue between peoples of all religions. WorldNetDaily.com

TONY BLAIR’S MISSION TO UNITE
ALL RELIGIONS
Former British Prime Minister Tony Blair launched the Tony Blair Faith
Foundation at the Time-Warner headquarters in New York in June 2008.
He said the Foundation has three goals: to promote faith as a force
poverty and war. of good, to improve knowledge between
religions, and to tackle
“In an era of globalization, there is nothing more important than getting people of different
faiths and cultures to understand each other better and to live in peace and mutual respect;
and to give faith itself its proper place in the future,” Blair said ahead of the launch.
As there is more “interdependence” in the world, people need to co-exist and work
together to solve problems.
Mr Blair’s foundation will attempt to bring religions together to tackle major global issues
such as the UN’s eight Millennium Development Goals, which range from eradicating
extreme poverty to ensuring environmental sustainability. Tony Blair wants to mobilize
churches to help tackle global poverty. The group’s advisory council includes America’s
“evangelical” mega-pastor. Rick Warren!!

SURVEILLANCE & IDENTIFICATION
In this wonderful age of I T - (Information Technology), a whole new
scope of surveillance has come into being.
Not only are you able to log on to the internet, and get information on any subject you can
think of, but “Big Brother” (the powers that be) can check your movements, the items you
buy by credit card, the people you talk to, and a heap of information about your life and
history.
This is, no doubt, a run up to the regime of the Antichrist who will possess a type of
“electronic omniscience” so that he will know virtually everything about everyone. Here
are a few items of what is happening today.
FBI & CIA CAN READ YOUR EMAIL
The US government -- and quite likely your own government also -- is either watching your
online activity every minute of the day through automated methods and non-human
eavesdropping techniques, or it has the ability to dip in as and when it deems necessary -sometimes with a warrant.
BIG BROTHER WANTS TO BROUSE
EVERY E-MAIL AND TEXT
Britain’s MI5 intelligence service has persuaded the Home Office to get government approval
for a massive increase in surveillance in Britain.
In London, every citizen already is captured on camera an average of 400 times a day. An
increasing number of the cameras are directly linked to MI5’s state-of-the-art computers in
22
the basement of headquarters overlooking the Thames. Billions of images are already stored
there.
But now secret plans by the Security Service and Scotland Yard’s anti-terrorist command
want to detail every phone call, e-mail, text message and online purchase to aid the fight
against terrorism. Four billion e-mails are sent every day in the UK. Last year 67 billion text
messages were transmitted. - worldnetdaily
HOW BIG BROTHER WATCHES
YOUR EVERY MOVE
In our ever-growing surveillance society, the average Briton is being
recorded 3,000 times a week.
In many cases information is kept by companies such as banks and
shops, but in certain circumstances they can be asked to hand it over to a
range of legal authorities.
An investigation by The Sunday Telegraph has now uncovered just how much personal data
is being collected about individuals by the Government, law enforcement agencies and
private companies each day.
In one week, the average person living in Britain has 3,254 pieces of personal information
stored about him or her, most of which is kept in databases for years, and in some cases,
indefinitely. The data includes details about shopping habits, mobile phone use, emails,
locations during the day, journeys and internet searches.
MOBILE PHONES
Every day the average person makes three mobile phone calls and sends at least two text
messages. Each time, the network provider logs information about who was called as well as
the caller’s location and direction of travel, worked out by triangulation from phone masts.
Customers can also have their locations tracked even when they are not using their mobile
phones, as the devices send out unique identifying signals at regular intervals.
THE INTERNET
Internet service providers (ISPs) compile information about their customers when they go
online, including name, address, the unique identification number for the connection, known
as an IP address, any browser used, and location.
BANKS
Banks can also be required to hand over personal account information to the authorities if
requested as part of an investigation. They also provide personal data to credit reference
agencies, debt collectors and fraud prevention organisations.
Debit and credit card transactions can give information about where and on what people are
spending their money.
CLOSED-CIRCUIT TELEVISION
The biggest source of surveillance in Britain is through the network of CCTV (closed-circuit
television) cameras. On average, an individual will appear on 300 CCTV cameras during a
day, and those tapes are kept by many organisations for indefinite lengths of time.
23
On the London Underground network, Transport for London operates more than 8,500
CCTV cameras in its underground stations, 1,550 cameras on tube trains, and up to 60,000
cameras on buses.
KEY CARD
PUBLIC TRANSPORT
Travel passes such as the Oyster Card used in London and the Key Card, in Oxford, can also
reveal remarkable amounts of information about an individual. When they are registered to a
person’s name, they record journey history, dates, times and fares. All of this information can
be accessed by police and other public authorities investigating crimes. - London Sunday
Telegraph
HOMELAND SECURITY DETECTS THREATS
BY READING MINDS
Homeland Security is now testing the next generation of security screening - a body scanner
that can read your mind.
Most preventive screening looks for explosives or metals that pose a threat. But a new system
called MALINTENT turns the old school approach on its head. This Orwellian-sounding
machine detects the person - not the device - set to wreak havoc and terror.
MALINTENT, the brainchild of the cutting-edge Human Factors division in Homeland
Security’s directorate for Science and Technology, searches your body for non-verbal cues
that predict whether you mean harm to your fellow passengers.
It has a series of sensors and imagers that read your body temperature, heart rate and
respiration for unconscious telltale signs invisible to the naked eye - signals terrorists and
criminals may display in advance of an attack. It’s like an X-ray for bad intentions.
So here’s how it works. When the sensors identify that something is “off,” they transmit
warning data to analysts, who decide whether to flag passengers for further questioning.
The next step involves micro-facial scanning, which involves measuring minute muscle
movements in the face for clues to mood and intention. - www.foxnews.com/
CALLS FOR THE U.S. AND E.U.
TO SHARE PERSONAL DATA
The Guardian reported, August 7/08, that Europe was told it should consider sharing vast
amounts of intelligence and other information about its citizens with the US in an effort to
establish a “Euro-Atlantic area of cooperation” to combat terrorism.
The 27-member countries of the EU should also pool intelligence on terrorism, develop joint
video-surveillance and unmanned drone aircraft, start networks of anti-terrorism centres, and
boost the role and powers of an intelligence co-ordinating body.
A high level confidential report on future society said the EU would fail to beat terrorism
unless it developed a full partnership with Washington.
“The EU should make up its mind with regard to the political objective of achieving a EuroAtlantic area of cooperation with the United States in the field of freedom, security and
24
justice,” it said. Such a pact would entail the transfer of vast volumes of information on
European citizens and travelers to the US authorities.
VEIN PALM IDENTIFICATION
The Mark of the Beast is real and it is coming. It will be forced upon us all some time in the
very near future. No longer does the technology belong to security services and sciencefiction films. Biometric technology is on the march.
Already in some Public Schools in the US they are installing
biometric hand scanning for the lunch systems.
Apple uses voice recognition to power Siri software. Some theme
parks take digital fingerprints to help recognize season pass holders.
Now some hospitals and school districts are using palm vein pattern
recognition to identify and efficiently manage their patients or
students.
Consumer advocates say that enterprises are increasingly employing biometric data to
improve convenience — and that members of the public are paying for that convenience with
their privacy.
Last year, the New York University Medical Center adopted photography and palm-scan
technology so that each patient would have two unique identifying features. Each arriving
patient has his or her palm scanned.
The vein palm identification technology is called PatientSecure, or PalmSecure; it was
developed by a Japanese company. In the United States, over five million patients have had
the palm scans. At present people can opt out of photos and scans if they are not comfortable
with the requirement, but the patient is not readily made aware of that fact.
Scanning devices may at first seem harmless, and even beneficial and convenient. Proven
identity is important, and essential these days, for without it, a person is a suspect, a noncitizen, and is ineligible to participate in basic functions of society. Lose your passport or ID
card and you have a very inconvenient problem. If your name is not on a registry how can
you prove you are who you say you are? This is the problem in India, for example, where
some millions of people have no documentary identification. And that’s why India has
undertaken a massive project to give a biometric identity card to every one of its people.
This is surely the biggest Big Brother project ever conceived. India is
well on the way to giving each of its 1.2 billion citizens, millions of
whom live in remote villages and possess no documentary proof of
existence, a cyber-age biometric identity card.
Now look at this report about retina scans …
RETINAL (EYE) SCANS FOR BANKING
ANZ bank has unveiled research which shows a majority of people would be comfortable
with biometric identification, using retina or fingerprint scanning technology at ATMs,
instead of PIN numbers, because it combines convenience with security.
25
The release of the survey coincided with ANZ unveiling plans to invest $1.5 billion over the
next five years in new technologies, including the rollout of 800 "next generation" automatic
teller machines and installing video-conferencing in regional branches.
The report suggests the new technology could replace cash entirely. Cash and coins could
be on the way out, and it's now realistic to imagine a world in which we do not carry notes or
coins, or even credit or debit cards. We may simply use our fingerprints or even retina scans
to make payments. - Oct 2012. / www.frasercoastchronicle.com
All the scanning devices are linked to national databases, so no-one can remain anonymous,
even if he wanted to. But all this rapidly advancing technology means the coming Global
Leader of the New World Order will have omniscient power over every person on the planet.
But there is more ….
THE MARK OF
THE BEAST
PROPHECY
“He (the False Prophet) was given power to give breath to the image of the Beast
(Antichrist), so that it could speak and cause all who refused to worship the image of
the Beast to be killed.
“He compels all, small and great, rich and poor, free and slave, to receive a mark on
their right hands, or on their foreheads, so that no one should be able to buy or to sell,
except the one who has the mark, either the name of the beast or the number of his
name.
“Here is wisdom. Let him who has understanding calculate the number of the beast, for
the number is that of a certain man; and his number is 666.” (Revelation 13:15-18)
THE MICROCHIP and the
MARK OF THE BEAST
This article by Carl Sanders was printed in our Prophetic Alert in Dec 1993, but it has very
relevant information for today.
DR CARL W. SANDERS was an electronics engineer, inventor, author and consultant to
various government organisations as well as IBM, General Electric, Honeywell and Teledyne.
He was also a winner of the President’s and Governor’s Award for Design Excellence. Dr
Sanders wrote of the coming “mark”:
32 years of my life was spent in design engineering and electronics, designing microchips in
the Bio-Med field. In 1968 I became involved, almost by accident, in a research and
development project in regard to a spinal by-pass for a young lady who had severed her
spine. They were looking at possibly being able to connect motor nerves, etc.
26
It was a project we were all excited about. There were 100 people involved and I was the
senior engineer in charge of the project. This project culminated in the microchip that we talk
about now — a microchip that I believe is going to be the positive identification and “the
Mark of the Beast.”
This microchip is recharged by body temperature changes. Obviously you can’t go in and
have your battery changed every so often, so the microchip has a recharging circuit that
charges based upon body temperature changes.
Over one and a half million dollars was spent finding out that the two places in the body
where the temperature changes the most rapidly are in the forehead (primary position), right
below the hairline, and the back of the hand (alternative position).
Working on the microchip, we had no idea about it ever being an identification chip. We
looked at it as being a very humanitarian thing to do. We were all excited about what we were
doing.
We were doing high-level integration for the very first time. This team was made up of
people out of San Jose, people out of Motorola, General Electric, Boston Medical Center - it
was quite a group of people. My responsibility had to do with the design of the chip itself, not
the medical side of it.
As the chip began to evolve, there came a time in the project when they said that the financial
return on by-passing severed spines is not a very lucrative thing for us to be into, so we really
need to look at some other areas. We noticed that the frequency of the chip had a great effect
upon behaviour and so we began to branch off and look possibly at behaviour modification.
BEHAVIOUR CHANGE
The project almost turned into electronic acupuncture because what they ended up with was
embedding a microchip to put out a signal which affected certain areas. They were able to
determine that you could cause a behaviour change.
One of the projects was called the Phoenix Project which had to do with Vietnam veterans.
We had a chip called the Rambo Chip. This chip would actually cause extra adrenaline flow.
I wonder how many of you know that if you can stop the output of the pituitary gland (the
signal from the pituitary gland that causes oestrogen flow), you can put a person into instant
menopause and there is no conception. This was tested in India and other different parts of
the world. So there you have a birth control tool, based on a microchip.
Microchips can also be used for migraine headaches, behaviour modifications, as
upper/downer, sexual stimulant and sexual depressant. This is nothing more than electronic
acupuncture.
There are 250,000 components in the microchip, including a tiny lithium battery. I fought
them over using lithium as a battery source, but NASA was doing a lot with lithium at that
time and it was the going thing. I had talked to a doctor at Boston Medical Center about what
that concentration of lithium in the body could do if the chip broke down. He said that you
would get a boil or grievous sore.
The Bible prophecy reveals that such “sores” will afflict those who receive the mark of the
Beast in the second half of the Tribulation.
“The first angel went and poured out his bowl upon the earth, and loathsome and
malignant sores broke out on the people who had the mark of the beast and who
worshipped his image.” (Revelation 16:2)
27
As the development moved along, I left the project and came back as a consultant several
times. I was used in many meetings as an expert witness in regard to the use of the microchip.
People like Henry Kissinger and CIA folk attended these meetings. I was in one meeting
where it was discussed, “How can you control a people if you cannot identify them?”
It was also discussed, how do you make people aware of the need for something like this
chip?”
As we developed this microchip, and as the identification chip became the focal point, there
were several things that were wanted. They wanted a name and an image (picture of your
face), a Social Security number with the international digits on it, finger print identification,
physical description, family history, address, occupation, income tax information and
criminal record.
I’ve been in seventeen “One World” meetings where this has been discussed; meetings in
Brussels, Luxembourg, tying together the finances of the world.
Just recently in the newspapers they’ve talked about the Health Care Program, the “Womb
to Tomb” identification! A positive identification! There are bills before Congress right now
that will allow them to inject a microchip in your child at the time of birth for
identification purposes.
The President of the United States of America, under The “Emigration of Control Act of
1986,” Section 100, has the authority to deem whatever type of identification is necessary
- whether it be an invisible tattoo or electronic media under the skin.
So I think you have to look at the facts, folks: this is not coming as some big shock. The
paving has been done ahead of time!”

IMPLANTABLE CHIPS NOW IN USE
Microchip implants are now being used to monitor children, convicts, pets, Alzheimer’s
patients, and others. A few otherwise ordinary people have also taken the step of receiving
computer chip implants as pioneers of what they expect will one day be the worldwide norm.
THE VERICHIP is a microchip the size of a grain of
rice that will hold all the I.D. data of a person. It is injected under a person’s skin with a
needle.
The UN has already attempted to insert these microchips in refugees in African refugee
camps. Some people are allergic to the Verichip. It can cause a terrible sore.
THE MONDEX I.D. MICROCHIP
28
This is another chip, developed by Mastercard, and is designed to take
the place of a credit or debit card. Like the Verichip it is set up to
replace currency notes and credit and debit cards for transacting
business.
The Mondex chip is also inserted under the skin by a needle. (“Mon” stands for money and
“dex” comes from the word dextar which means right hand.
RADIO FREQUENCY IDENTIFICATION DEVICES
( RFID )
RFIDs are now finding their way into and onto humans in many ways. Chipping of people
began in the US in May 2002 when several volunteers had 12 x 2.1 mm radio frequency
identification (RFID) “VeriChips” inserted under the skin of their arms.
GPS - GLOBAL POSITIONING SYSTEM
There are several ways government and commercial entities are looking to profit through
impressive ID and Global Positioning System (GPS) technologies.
The Onstar GPS system is now widely used in cars for direction finders and for unlocking
locked cars by remote control.
Programs are now being implemented putting GPS I.D. bracelets and watches on children to
locate them if they are lost or kidnapped. This is called the RFID, Radio Frequency
Identification.
Most cell phone companies are now offering a GPS service so parents can track their kids and
know exactly where they are.
In most states in the U.S.A., animals must have a microchip
implanted in their ear so they can be positively identified for
buying and selling.
It is only one step to inserting the Verichip in children. We are
being conditioned to accept this.
People are now being conditioned to take the chip in the name of security, accounting,
efficiency and prosperity. Welfare recipients will be required to take the chip for positive
identification to prevent welfare fraud.
The objective of this technology is to bring an ID system to a global level that will eliminate
the need to carry ID documents and credit cards. The goal is to market the VeriChip as a
global implantable identification system.
29
Chip implants are called “the wave of the future,” and are touted as a great advance over
credit cards and smart cards, which, without safe-guard technologies, are subject to theft
resulting in identity fraud.
Recently, in Barcelona, Spain, customers began paying for drinks
with the wave of their hand, having each received a microchip implant for ID and payment
purposes.
An electronic reader verifies their identity and links it to their current credit balance. They
can then buy food and drinks with a wave of their hand and don’t need to worry about losing
a credit card or wallet.
The chips being used in Spain are a fraction of the size of the original VeriChip - small
enough to be syringe-injected - and they are being implanted, not in the arm, but in the hand.
In Mexico, top federal prosecutors and investigators began receiving microchip implants in
their arms in 2003.
The Book of Revelation indicates that the regime of the coming world dictator, the
Antichrist ...
“… causes all, both small and great rich and poor, free and slave, to receive a mark on
their right hand or on their foreheads, and that no one may buy or sell except those
who have the mark or the name of the beast, or the number of his name.” (Revelation
13:16-17)
The hi-tech means of fulfilling this chilling vision that the apostle John received nearly 2000
years ago, is rapidly developing before our eyes! The question now is, how soon will the
Antichrist’s “666” all-inclusive system become universal and mandatory.
WEAR RADIO CHIP, OR, LEAVE SCHOOL !
Brushing aside privacy concerns by parents and civil rights activists, a Texas school district
has gone live with a controversial program requiring all students to wear a locator radio chip
that will enable officials to track their every move.
At the beginning of the school year, students at John Jay High School and Anson Jones
Middle School within the Northside Independent School District were told their old student
ID badges were no longer valid.
During registration they were required to obtain new badges containing a radio frequency
identification tracker chip. Students refusing the chips were reportedly threatened with
suspension, fines, or being involuntary transferred.
Unlike chips used by retailers to track inventory which activate when scanned by a reader,
these chips contain batteries and actively broadcast a continuous signal.
On October 1, the schools went live with a program to use the chips to track the exact
locations of students using the badges. The badges would even be able to tell if a student in a
classroom is in his seat or somewhere else in the room. - www.wnd.com/Oct 7/12.
U.K. TO BEGIN MICRO-CHIPPING PRISONERS
30
The British government is developing a plan to track current and former prisoners by means
of microchips implanted under the skin, drawing intense criticism from probation officers and
civil rights groups.
As a way to reduce prison crowding, many British prisoners are currently being released
under electronic monitoring, carried out by means of an ankle bracelet that transmits signals
like those used by mobile phones.
Now the Ministry of Justice is exploring the possibility of injecting prisoners in the back of
the arm with a radio frequency identification (RFID) chip that contains information about
their name, address and criminal record. Such chips, which contain a built-in antenna, can be
scanned by special readers.
The implantation of RFID chips in luggage, pets and livestock has become increasingly
popular in recent years. - naturalnews.com
BABIES - FIRST ANKLE BRACELETS,
THEN IMPLANTED RFIDs
Verichip Corp successfully marketed a Hugs Infant Protection System to hospitals in 2005.
Since then, infants at many major hospitals receive ankle bracelets something like what
many people on probation are currently required to use.
The ankle bracelets were marketed as a remedy for hospital infant abduction.
When a child is removed from the infant care area of the hospital, an alarm sounds. About
230 infants are abducted every year from US hospitals. The Hugs system saved one
child in 2005. This may be a good idea, but it lays the groundwork for later RFID tagging of
children and elderly for “safety reasons.”
Some unverified Internet sources report that the US and European governments have plans
to implant RFIDs in every newborn instead of using ankle bracelets.
ALZHEIMER’S PATIENTS RECEIVE RFIDs
In 2007, about 200 Alzheimer’s patients were implanted with non-GPS RFIDs in a market
test done by Verichip. The devices held medical information that could be scanned with a
special reader. Many more Alzheimer’s patients and people suffering with dementia have
been implanted since the 2007 pilot program.
MICRO CHIPS
ENDS THE NEED FOR
MEDICAL CHARTS
A patient’s medical history is one of the most important tools a doctor can have. Now
hundreds of Americans have chosen a new way to make their information available in a
heartbeat – the Verichip - a small electronic chip, the size of a piece of rice, that is injected
into the upper arm.
Hospital personnel can run a scanner over the embedded Verichip and by using an ID number
in the chip, they can see your medical history instantly. They can also see what medications
31
you are taking, dosages, allergies, blood type, the name of your doctor, and any medical
procedures you’ve undergone.
Often patients with the greatest needs are unconscious or have altered mental status, or are
unable to communicate because they’re in too much pain or anxiety. So the chip would be a
great advantage!!!
THE
DANGERS
OF RFID TAGS
RFID TAGS CAN BE USED TO TRACK PEOPLE
“Under REAL ID biometric facial recognition technology, you become a number literally
worn on your face - a number which is read by computer, tracked by surveillance camera, and
distributed worldwide.”
Rep. Sam E. Rohrer, of the Pennsylvania House of Representatives (U.S.) says: “REAL ID
undoubtedly exemplifies a scenario in which a difficult tension exists between freedom and
security. By commandeering every state’s driver’s license issuing process, REAL ID
threatens both freedom and security. It has become the biometric enrolment phase of a plan to
implement a terribly invasive tracking system, largely without public knowledge or approval.
“REAL ID is merely the current face of a far larger, international government and private
economic effort to collect, store, and distribute the sensitive biometric data of citizens to use
for the twin purposes of government tracking and economic control.
“At issue are much more than standardized or non-duplicative driver’s licenses. This effort
extends worldwide, threatening every person alive today.
“Importantly, the desire by government and economic interests to implement a national
tracking and ID system did not start with the REAL ID Act in 2005. Under the guise of
security, it has been attempted numerous times in the past, even during Ronald Reagan’s
administration.
When former Attorney General William French Smith proposed to implement what he called
a “perfectly harmless” national ID system as well as when a second cabinet member proposed
to “tattoo a number on each American’s forearm,” Ronald Reagan responded, “My God,
that’s the mark of the beast,” signalling an abrupt end to the national ID debate during the
Reagan years.
Having this background, we should observe that many Americans still do not know why the
provisions of the REAL ID Act must be rejected and aggressively opposed, because they
do not understand the full implications of REAL ID. Many wrongly assume that the
legitimate need for security trumps all other considerations.
However, REAL ID is not primarily about a secure driver’s license or terrorism prevention.
The full and dangerous implications of REAL ID may be fleshed out through a discussion of
why each American must vigorously oppose this Act’s most basic tenets. It poses dangers in
the following three areas:
1 - REAL ID violates Constitutional rights.
2 - REAL ID compromises national and state sovereignty.
3 - REAL ID threatens the safety of all Americans.

HUMAN ID CHIPS
GET UNDER MY SKIN
32
David H. Holtzman, in Businessweek
The technology is available, but the potential for misuse is almost limitless. Our columnist
takes you through the dangers of this futuristic process.
While it’s easy to reject the notion of placing little ID chips inside humans as an ominous
Orwellian invasion of individual rights, I suspect it’s inevitable that in my lifetime we will all
have some kind of computerized implants.
My problem is not with the technology, known as chipping, or with the companies that sell it.
My concern stems from my lack of trust in institutions, and lack of belief that the
technology will be forever restricted to beneficial, socially acceptable uses.
PRIVACY. Advocates of chipping often downplay privacy and security worries by stressing
the chips merely contain a number rather than any actual personal information. However, that
may be dangerous enough.
HACKING AND MISUSE. I trust VeriChip, I guess. At least I have no reason not to trust
them. But what about someone hacking into VeriChip databases? (Please don’t tell me their
security is absolutely foolproof.)
All it would take is a careless employee to accidentally expose everyone’s numbers to an illintentioned hacker. Since you can’t reprogram chips already implanted, would we all need to
have them physically swapped out whenever VeriChip’s database was compromised?
UNINTENDED CONSEQUENCES. Once implanted, these chips, and the associated
network of chip readers deployed to work with them, will be around for a long time. Who
knows which agencies might be given access to the database down the road as part of new
policy initiatives?

THE DREADED IMPLANTED CHIP
Jerry Golden in Israel comments:
It’s not only the US that’s in trouble, it’s the entire world. The global crisis could only be
brought about by those who control the banking systems of the world.
We have moved into the end times as prophesied in God’s Word. We now find ourselves
faced with the evil around us as it closes in on the entire world.
We will find ourselves more in the survival mood as times goes on, with food shortages, bank
foreclosures, crime and violence completely out of control, and people living in fear for their
very lives.
Daily now you are seeing your freedoms being taken away from you in ways that gives the
Government more control over your lives, your movement, and your finances.
In the near future it will be very difficult to buy sell or move money without the approval of
your banker who is already controlled by the Government.
You are slowly being forced to accept ID chips in your driver’s
license and passports but it won’t end there, for the national ID
card with a chip is being planned for the near future;
and then comes the dreaded implanted chip.
The Scripture warns against receiving the mark!
33
“If anyone worships the beast and his image, and receives his mark on his forehead or
upon his hand, he also will drink of the wine of the fury of God, which has been poured
full strength into the cup of His wrath; and he will be tormented with burning sulphur …
and the smoke of their torment rises for ever and ever.” (Revelation 14:9-11)
It will only be those who have God’s peace inside them through a personal relationship with
God through the Messiah Yeshua, who will be able to face the present and coming crises.
SOMETHING HUGE IS ABOUT TO HAPPEN
Ron Graham in US, a forthright Christian commentator, sums up the present situation:
“Global government, global economy, and global ecumenicalism are all catch phrases
being tossed around these days. We know it wasn’t Obama who started this steam roller effect
of the downfall of the American economy, but it seems to be his intent to cause that steam
roller to be converted into light speed.
“Warren Buffet made a statement the other day that the American economy is in free-fall
mode. Wow, that from one of the savviest traders on Wall Street; a statement like that coming
from a man who probably stands to lose more of his personal wealth than any other human
being on this planet. That statement comes after the biggest bank “bail out” debacles ever to
hit this continent. Buffet believes there is no let up in sight for the free-fall of this economy.
“We can feel the temperature rising under our seats. The stage is being set for the grand
unveiling of the New World Order. Our Bibles speak of this phenomenon happening in the
very last days before Christ’s return.
“I feel a kind of peace as I watch the current worldwide events unfolding and know that they
are completely biblical and that they were indeed foretold by the prophets thousands of years
ago. We’ve read about the end times and the events that are to happen, but to actually witness
the physical unveiling of the Word of God before our eyes has a peaceful yet eerie feeling,
like something huge is about to happen.”
So friends ...
“Be on guard that your hearts may not be weighed down with dissipation, excessiveness,
drunkenness and the worries of life, and that day come on you suddenly like a trap; for it
will come upon all those who dwell on the face of the earth. But keep on the alert at all
times, praying that you may be accounted worthy to escape all these things that are
about to take place, and to stand before the Son of Man.” (Luke 21:34-36)
BRZEZINSKI:
“POPULIST RESISTANCE”
IS DERAILING
THE NEW WORLD ORDER
During a recent speech in Poland, former US National Security Advisor Zbigniew Brzezinski
warned fellow elitists that a worldwide “resistance” movement to “external control” driven
by “populist activism” is threatening to derail the move towards a new world order.
Brzezinski said that “persistent and highly motivated populist resistance of politically
awakened and historically resentful peoples to external control has proven to be increasingly
difficult to suppress.”
34
Although Brzezinski delivered his comments in a neutral tone, the context of the environment
in which he spoke, along with his previous statements, would indicate that this is not a
celebration of “populist resistance” but a lament at the impact it is having on the kind of
“external control” Brzezinski has repeatedly advocated.
The remarks were made at an event for the European Forum For New Ideas (EFNI), an
organization that advocates the transformation of the European Union into an anti-democratic
federal superstate, the very type of bureaucratic “external control” Brzezinski stressed was
in jeopardy in his lecture.
Brzezinski’s point about “populist resistance” being a major hindrance to the imposition of a
new world order is a warning, not an acclamation.
Consider what Brzezinski wrote in his book Between Two Ages: America’s Role in the
Technotronic Era; he advocated the control of populations by an elite political class via
technotronic manipulation.
“The technotronic era involves the gradual appearance of a more controlled society. Such a
society would be dominated by an elite class, unrestrained by traditional values.
Soon it will be possible to assert almost continuous surveillance over every citizen and
maintain up-to-date complete files containing even the most personal information about
the citizen. These files will be subject to instantaneous retrieval by the authorities,” wrote
Brzezinski.
Brzezinski’s sudden concern about the impact of a politically awakened global population
isn’t born out of any notion that he identifies with their cause. Brzezinski is the ultimate
elitist insider, the founder of the powerful Trilateral Commission, a Council on Foreign
Relations luminary and a regular Bilderberg attendee.
He was once described by President Barack Obama as “one of
our most outstanding thinkers. - www.infowars.com
WHO OR WHAT IS HOLDING BACK
SATAN’S NEW WORLD ORDER
?
Zbigniew Brzezinski says it is Popular Resistance that’s derailing the New World Order. But
the Scriptures - the Holy Bible - give us the very specific reason for the inability of the Man
of Sin to make his appearance, and to bring in his satanic regime.
Look at this revealing prophecy:
2 THESSALONIANS 2:1-10
“Now concerning the coming our Master, Y'shua the Messiah, and our gathering together
to (be with) Him, brethren, we ask you not to be quickly shaken or alarmed by some
prophecy, or report, or a letter (alleged to be) from us, to the effect that the Day of the
LORD (the Tribulation) has already come.
“Let no one deceive you in any way, for that Day will not come unless the apostasy, (the
predicted falling away from the faith) comes first, and then, secondly, the Man of
Lawlessness (that is, the Man of Sin) is revealed, the son of destruction, who opposes
and exalts himself above everything that is called God or that is worshipped, so that he
takes his seat in the temple of God, proclaiming that he himself is God.”
The Man of Sin, also called the Antichrist and the Beast, is destined to rule the world for 3
½ years. He will sit in the temple in Jerusalem, and claim to be the “god of gods.”
35
“Do you not remember that while I was still with you, I was telling you these things?
And you know what is restraining him now, so that he may be revealed at the proper
time.”
So the Antichrist is being restrained until the time permitted for his revealing.
“For the mystery of iniquity and lawlessness is already at work; but He who now
restrains will do so until He is taken out of the way.”
The mystery plan of evil is now well advanced around the world, and the foundations have
been laid for the NWO dictatorship. The Beast himself, however, is currently being held back
by the Restrainer — God’s Holy Spirit.
The restraining power God will be withdrawn at the Rapture — that’s the catching up of the
corporate Body of Christ to meet the Messiah. (Rapture from Gr. Harpazo, Latin Rapere).
The Holy Spirit escorts the believers of the Body to this great Gathering in the sky, and then,
to the Father’s House — the New (Heavenly) Jerusalem. So the restraining Hand will be
withdrawn ...
“And then the lawless one will be revealed whom the Lord will slay with the breath of
His mouth and bring to an end by the glory of His coming; that is, the one whose coming
is in accord with the activity of Satan, with great power and with all kinds of signs and
counterfeit miracles, and with all the deception of wickedness among those who are
perishing, because they would not receive the love of the truth which could have saved
them.”
COMING
ENDTIME EVENTS
Yes, something huge is going to happen! But aren’t we already seeing many huge things
occurring?
Certainly current events are preparing the stage for the reign of the Beast. And although we
are already seeing major attempts to revamp the monetary system, and to inter-nationalize
government, trade, religion, law and order, and “the works,” the full prophesied satanic
system will not take place until after the Man of Sin is revealed, and after he brings the
nations to their knees by creating worldwide havoc through a nuclear world war, early in the
Tribulation.
As we have just read in 2 Thessalonians 2, the Man of Sin will not be revealed until after the
Rapture. So true believers, (the Body of Christ), will not be here on earth for the public
appearance and the global reign of the Beast.
But look! If the coming of the NWO and the revealing of the Man of Sin seems imminent,
then the Rapture is even more imminent. So let’s make our time count for Eternity!
Now I want to share the main prophesied events that are ahead, with you. I have listed them
here in the order that we believe they will occur. Believers should be watching for this first
event every day; while unbelievers, ready or not, will soon experience the events that will
follow the Rapture.
1. THE RAPTURE
“For the Master Himself will descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the
archangel, and with the trumpet call of God. Then the dead in Christ - those who died
with faith in the Messiah - shall rise first.
36
“Then we, the living believers who remain, will simultaneously be caught up together
with them in the clouds, to meet the Master in the air. And so we will be with the Master
for ever.” (1 Thessalonians 4:16-17)
The catching up of true believers from all around the world means, millions of people will
vanish from the nations. Their bodies will be supernaturally transformed by the power of God
in a moment, and in their new “spiritual” bodies that are no longer limited to time and space,
they will be taken up to the Father’s House.
This disappearance of millions of people will have a very destabilising impact, especially on
the economies and security of the nations of the world.
2. THE MAN OF SIN WILL BE REVEALED as a peace-maker, but his program will be
deceptive and destructive.
“And in the latter period of their rule, when the transgressors have run their course, a
king will arise, insolent and skilled in intrigue. He will become very strong, but not by
his own power. He will destroy to an extraordinary degree and prosper and perform his
will; he will destroy mighty men, and also the holy people.
“And through his shrewdness, he will cause deceit to succeed under his hand; and he
will magnify himself in his heart. He will destroy many while they feel secure and are at
ease. He will even rise against the Prince of princes. But he will be broken without
human agency.” (Daniel 8:23-27)
He will, no doubt, provide convincing, false explanations for the disappearance of the true
believers. And he will gain the attention of the people still on the earth, as he brings about a
“miracle” by clinching a 7-year Peace Treaty with Israel and many other nations. Succeeding
where all the past presidents and diplomats failed, he will receive great acclaim. (2
Thessalonians 2:1-12)
3. THE GREAT TRIBULATION BEGINS
“Then there will be great tribulation, such as has never occurred since the beginning of
the world until now; and there will be nothing like it again.” (Matthew 24:21)
“Look! YHWH lays the earth waste, devastates it, distorts its surface, and scatters is
inhabitants. … The earth will be completely laid waste and completely despoiled, for
YHWH has spoken this word.
“The earth mourns and withers; the world fades and withers; the exalted of the people of
the earth languish. The earth is also polluted by its inhabitants, for they have
transgressed the teachings, changed the laws, and broken the everlasting covenant.
Therefore a curse devours the earth, and those who live in it are held guilty. Therefore
the inhabitants of the earth are burned up, and few men are left.” (Isaiah 24:1, 3-6)
This will be seven years of “hell on earth.” (Matthew 24:21; Daniel 12:1; Joel 2:1-11; Isaiah
13 & 24; Revelation 6 to19.)
4. WORLD WAR
The peace treaty will fail after a short time, and then global war will break out, which will
end in a nuclear holocaust.
“Then another horse, a fiery red one, went forth. Its rider was given power to take peace
from the earth and cause men to slay one another. A huge sword was given to him.”
(Revelation 6:4)
37
“Proclaim this among the nations: Prepare for war! Rouse the warriors! Let all the men
of war draw near. Let them come up to attack! Beat your plowshares into swords, and
your pruning-hooks into spears. Let the weak say, 'I am strong!'
“Come quickly all you surrounding nations, and gather yourselves together! Bring down,
O YHWH, Your mighty ones! Let the nations be aroused and come up to the Valley of
Jehoshaphat (in Jerusalem), for there I will sit to judge all the nations on every side.”
(Joel 3:9-12)
(See also Ezekiel 29:9-16. 38:22; 39:6; Isaiah 17:1; 24:1-6; Malachi 4:1; Revelation 6:3-8.
Also Joel 3:9-12; Zechariah 12:2-3; Daniel 11:40-44).
5. ANTICHRIST MOVES INTO ISRAEL after the devastation of the nuclear war. He is the
apparent victor, and is referred to as the Prince of Rome in Daniel’s prophecy.
“He will also invade the Beautiful Land (Israel). Many countries will fall. … Then he
will pitch the tents of his palace between the seas and the beautiful Holy Mountain (Mt
Zion - Jerusalem). Yet he will come to his end, and no-one will help him.” (Daniel 11:41,
45)
Antichrist’s control of Jerusalem will lead to a TEMPLE FOR ALL NATIONS being built
on the Temple Mount. It is there that this evil man will be enthroned, claiming that he is the
god of gods. (Daniel 11:36-39. 2 Thessalonians 2:3-4).
“The son of destruction, who opposes and exalts himself above everything that is called
God or that is worshipped, so that he takes his seat in the temple of God, proclaiming
that he himself is God.” (2 Thessalonians 2:4-5)
“All inhabitants of the earth will worship him, every one whose name has not been
written from the foundation of the world in the Book of Life of the Lamb who has been
slain.” (Revelation 13:8)
6. Jerusalem will become the centre of the ONE WORLD GOVERNMENT which will be
established by the Beast and the surviving nations. He will then reign worldwide for 3½ years
— the second half of the Tribulation. (Daniel 11:45)
“There was given to him a mouth speaking arrogant words and blasphemies; and
authority to act for 42 months was given to him. … He was given power to make war
with the set-apart people of God (the Tribulation followers of Y'shua), and to overcome
them; and authority over every tribe, people, tongue and nation was given to him.”
(Revelation 13:5, 7)
7. A “MARK OF THE BEAST” IDENTIFICATION AND TRADING SYSTEM will be
imposed and every person on earth must receive the number/mark to be able to buy or sell.
“He compels all, small and great, rich and poor, free and slave, to receive a mark on their
right hands, or on their foreheads, so that no one should be able to buy or to sell,
except the one who has the mark, either the name of the beast or the number of his name.
“Here is wisdom, Let him who has understanding calculate the number of the beast, for
the number is that of a man; and his number is 666.” (Revelation 13:16-18)
The most evil part of this will be: to receive the ID mark of the Beast, a person must give
allegiance to the World Leader, and worship him. Those who refuse the mark and refuse to
worship him, will be beheaded.
38
“He (the False Prophet - the accomplice of the Beast) was given power to give breath to
the image of the Beast (Antichrist), so that it could speak and cause all who refused to
worship the image of the Beast to be killed.” (Revelation 13:15; 20:4)
8. THE MESSIAH, AS KING OF KINGS, WILL RETURN IN GREAT POWER,
bringing destruction to the Antichrist, the False Prophet and to their armies at the BATTLE
OF ARMAGEDDON. (Revelation 19:11-21)
“Then I saw the beast and the kings of the earth and their armies, assembled to make war
against the Rider on the horse, and against His army.
“But the beast was seized, and with him the false prophet who had performed the signs
in his presence, by which he deceived those who had received the mark of the beast and
those who worshipped his image. These two were thrown alive into the fiery lake of
burning sulphur.
“The rest were killed with the sword that came out of the mouth of the Rider on the
horse, and all the birds were filled with their flesh.” (Revelation 19:19-21)
Satan himself is then bound and cast into the bottomless pit for 1,000 years. (Revelation
20:1-3)
9. THE WORLDWIDE KINGDOM OF GOD WILL THEN BE ESTABLISHED. This is
the 1,000 year Millennial Reign of Christ, the Messiah.
“The seventh angel sounded his trumpet; and there arose loud voices in heaven, crying,
‘The kingdoms of the world have become the kingdom of YHWH our LORD and of His
Anointed – the Messiah; and He will reign for ever and ever’.” (Revelation 11:15).
“Then I saw thrones, and sitting on them were those to whom authority to judge was
given. And I saw the souls of those who had been beheaded because of their testimony
for Y'shua and because of the Word of God - these had not worshipped the beast or his
image and had not received his mark upon their foreheads or upon their hands. They
came to life and reigned with the Messiah for the thousand years.” (Revelation 20:4.
Also see Daniel 7:13-14. Matthew 25:31-34; & Isaiah 2:2-4)
Truly blessed are those who participate in the Rapture, and in the Kingdom of God.
Y’shua the Messiah says to His people: “But when these things (the beginning of
sorrows) begin to take place, straighten yourselves and lift up your heads, because your
redemption is drawing near.” (Luke 21:28)
The Master never promised us constant calm seas and smooth sailing. There will be storms.
But Y’shua does promise us a safe passage, for He is with us in the storms of life, and in all
situations when we are faithful to Him.
When we see our financial security threatened, the believer still has Hope (assurance based
on God’s promise). We know very well that this world is not our home. We are looking for
the heavenly city, and for the eternal Kingdom of God.
So in these anxious times, we always have the great assurance, our Saviour is with us, and
we have the confident expectation – He is coming for us!
Out there in society, however, many people are losing hope. And some of those discouraged,
disillusioned people are beginning to look for answers regarding the things that really matter,
such as their destiny.
This is a time when believers should take every opportunity to offer the word of truth and
assurance, and point perishing souls to the Saviour. They need Him!
DO NOT FEAR, BELIEVER!

WE’RE ON THE WINNING SIDE!
Now here are some Scriptures of encouragement for times when you feel afraid or worried …
wonderful promises of our mighty Saviour. They are for each one of us.
“Yes, when I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I fear no evil; for You are
with me; Your rod and Your staff, they comfort me.” (Psalm 23:4)
“YHWH is my Light and my Salvation; whom shall I fear? YHWH is the Refuge - the
Stronghold of my life; of whom shall I be afraid?
When evildoers - my adversaries and my enemies - come against me to devour my flesh,
they will stumble and fall. Though an army encamp against me, my heart will not fear.
Though war should break out against me, yet in this I shall be confident. … For in the
day of evil He hides me in His Shelter; in the Secret Place of His Tent He hides me;
He sets me high upon a Rock.” (Psalm 27:1-3, 5)
“How blessed is the man who stands in awe of YHWH, who has found great delight in
His commands. He will not be afraid of an evil report; his heart is steadfast, trusting in
YHWH. His heart is upheld, he will not be afraid, while he looks on his adversaries.”
(Psalm 112:1, 7-8)
“Encourage the exhausted, and strengthen the feeble. Say to those with palpitating heart,
‘Be strong; take courage, fear not. Look! Your God will come with vengeance; the
recompense of God. He will come and save you’.” (Isaiah 35:3-4)
“Do not fear, for I am with you; do not be dismayed, for I am your God. I will
strengthen you; definitely I will help you; I will uphold you with My righteous right
hand.” (Isaiah 41:10)
“But the very hairs of your head are all numbered. So do not fear; you are more
valuable than many sparrows.” (Matthew 10:30-31)
“For you have not received a spirit of bondage leading to fear again, but you have
received the Spirit of adoption - of sonship – by whom we cry out, ‘Abba! Father!’”
(Romans 8:15)
Finally, for any readers who know or fear they are not saved, the Scripture says:
“The Word is near you, in your mouth and in your heart – that is, the Word of faith which
we are proclaiming, that …if you confess with your mouth Y’shua as LORD (as
Saviour and Master) and believe in your heart that God raised Him from the dead, you
will be saved; for with the heart man believes, resulting in righteousness, and with the
mouth he confesses, resulting in salvation.
For the Scripture says, whoever believes in Him will not be disappointed. … for
whoever will call upon the Name of the Lord will be saved.” (Romans 10:8-11,13)
So dear one, settle the matter now! The following decision prayer will help you to express
faith in the Saviour.
DECISION PRAYER
Heavenly Father, I come before You today, in the Name of Y’shua, the Lord
Jesus. Feeling my own unworthiness, I come just as I am, a sinner needing
Your salvation.
I believe that Jesus the Messiah is the Son of God, the Saviour who came from Heaven
to earth to save sinners like me. I believe His death on the cross paid the penalty of my
sin, and that He will set me free from condemnation.

Lord Jesus, thank You for the great sacrifice You made to save me. I believe that You
are the living Saviour, and You rose from the dead, ascended to Heaven, and that You
are now seated on the Throne of Eternity.
Trusting You for salvation, I now receive You as my Saviour and Master. By Your
grace and strength, I will live for You from this day on. Master, please make me like
You.
Heavenly Father, thank You for hearing my prayer and for receiving me as Your child.
Thank You for Your forgiveness, and for Your gift of eternal life. Thank You so much
for Your love. Thank You Father. In the Name of Y’shua, Jesus the Messiah, I pray.
Amen.
