Again, as already noted in my previous blog, this oil spill will eventually find its way into our great rivers and springs of water.  It has just been reported that oil has seeped into Lake Pontchartrain and suspected to be in the rain soaking most of the gulf coast and central Texas.  It is not a far reach to imagine that this oil can also get into the water table, thus polluting our drinking water and causing untold health risk.  The Bible says, “The third angel poured out his bowl on the rivers and springs of water, and they became blood. Then I heard the angel in charge of the waters say: ‘You are just in these judgments, you who are and who were, the Holy One, because you have so judged; for they have shed the blood of your saints and prophets, and you have given them blood to drink as they deserve” (Revelation 16:4-6). Now that I have your attention, what is the next bowl of God’s wrath being poured upon the earth?

“The fourth angel poured out his bowl on the sun, and the sun was given power to scorch people with fire. They were seared by the intense heat and they cursed the name of God, who had control over these plagues, but refused to repent and glorify Him” (Revelation 16:8). The Eastern part of the United States has been experiencing a record setting heat wave these past few days, but I am afraid this is only the beginning. I am sure scientists and climatologists will attempt to explain this a way as they do Global Warming, but in a very short time they will be convinced that this is beyond explanation as scores of the population are rushed to emergency rooms or found dead. Recent medical studies have shown that humans can only survive a limited number of hours in intense heat before dehydration sets in and brain cells begin to die leading to death. Friends, this is only the first of July and what lies ahead will paralyze this nation (perhaps the world) and lead directly into the next bowl of God’s wrath.

“The fifth angel poured out his bowl on the throne of the beast, and his kingdom was plunged into darkness. Men gnawed their tongues in agony and cursed the God of heaven because of their pains and their sores, but refused to repent of what they had done” (Revelation 16:10). It does not take much imagination to discern what happens next. As the heat index rises it will put an unbelievable strain on an already over extended electric grids which are in desperate need of upgrading. I recently completed a study on these aging electric grids and was shocked to realize that with the exception of Texas, there are only two electric grids in the United States, one for the Western part and one for the Eastern part of the United States. It would not take much strain from one portion of either of these two grids to cause a cascade affect putting most of the United States in total darkness. Imagine if you will, the horror if all computers immediately went off line, along with air conditioners, refrigerators, and needed hospital equipment with people left sitting in the dark. This in itself would be a disaster of a biblical proportion. If we added to this a spiritual darkness it would be devastating with unchecked immorality, complete anarchy, and mass hysteria.

Now what follows are the last two bowels of God’s wrath.   Let me suggest that you go to your Bible and read them for yourself and if you would like a fuller explanation then you can read my book, “Final Warning, because the hour of His Judgment has come.”  Either way, my friends, it is time to prepare for the Great Tribulation by coming to the truth, trusting in Jesus Christ alone, and remaining faithful to Him. I implore every Christian to pray that they are prepared to meet Christ at His magnificent return to punish the evil doer and visibly rapture in Church in glory.

As we enter one of the most aggressive hurricane seasons on record, I cannot even imagine what a hurricane would do with oil in the Gulf of Mexico. Dealing with oil on the beach is one thing, but what if we had to deal with it in our streets, in our businesses, in our homes? What if we had to rescue humans covered in oil? What if this is no longer isolated to just the Gulf Coast but found its way up the great rivers to our inner cities? Now imagine if you will, the dispersants mixed with oil which could possibly cause untold diseases and catastrophic health hazards of a biblical proportion.  It staggers the imagination, or is it prophetic?

What if we are dealing with the wrath of God? The Bible clearly indicates that during the Great Tribulation that his angels, “will pour out his bowl (God’s wrath) on the sea, and it turned into blood like that of a dead man, and every living thing in the sea died.” (Revelation 16:3) The shocking truth about this prophecy is that dead man’s blood is a brownish red color that is very similar to that of the oil spill. And we have all seen the devastation it has had on the wildlife. Our hearts have broken when we have seen birds and other wildlife struggle to free themselves from the encasement of oil.

God loves you.  He loves His world, but he will not allow greed which is idolatry to capture the souls of men. He will not stand by idle as lawlessness ravages the helpless and drugs rob a man of his character. He will not turn a blind eye to the hate that pits one man against another. He will not rest as man destroys the world and himself in the process. God will continue to pour His wrath down on a wicked world until everyone who is called repents of their sin and confess that Jesus Christ is Lord. God will not rest until all that is destined to be saved are saved.

No matter how hard we try to reverse the effects of these plagues they will only get worse until Christ returns at the end of the age to rapture His Church and send the evil doer to hell and eternal punishment.  Christians must strengthen their faith and boldly witness to their neighbor while time is still left to do so. There will come a time when no man will receive your witness, but blame you for what is happening in the world.  Christians can no longer remain silent!

But, is there ever a time when Christians must not submit to the Governing authorities? Is there ever a time when Christians, even under the threat of arrest, imprisonment, or persecution should refuse to follow the commands of the Government? Again, clearly from God’s Word the answer is a resounding yes. However, in these last days Satan and his henchmen have made it difficult if not nearly impossible for most Christians to see where it is necessary to resist their commands. The Bible says, “And no wonder, for Satan himself masquerades as an angel of light. It is not surprising, then, if his servants masquerade as servants of righteousness. Their end will be what their actions deserve.”  (II Co.11:14-15) Even though Satan and his henchmen will in the end get what they deserve for leading the Christian community to accept their rules and regulations as something good instead of rejecting them as an anathema, we must look closely at what they are asking us to do.

If the government says let’s spread the wealth around and give a helping hand to those who really need it, then on the surface this appears to be a good thing.  Even the early Christians did the same thing where none was in need. So why should Christians be so alarmed?  Have not Christians lived under socialism before? But we must look deeper. In the guise of helping others who are in need this health bill will probably be passed into law soon. If everyone is required to carry health insurance and to follow the dictates of the government to stay healthy, then we must ask what their definition of healthy is. This is very important, because if their definition of healthy includes what you think, what you believe, and how you act then Christians would immediately have a problem. Yet I am afraid that is exactly where the new health bill is headed.  Let me explain.

This health bill will look at the whole person, both his mental and physical well being. For years now psychologists have connected the dots by explaining that the mind has an essential role in our overall health. So if this bill is designed to keep us healthy and reduce cost then the mind must be analyzed by the professionals. And in time it will be required that everyone undergo this analysis to help him maintain his health and reduce cost for the greater good of the community. So, what’s the problem? As the world drifts further away from God then patients who have a strong zealousness to follow Jesus Christ as Lord may be seen as having a neurotic disorder or other psychological disorder that would require drugs or even confinement. And for those who are not so zealous in their faith will be led to put their trust in self and the professional to bring healing to their mind and unwanted behaviors.  In either case the patient will be brought to the altar of the beast to worship him as their true savior.  Where this will all lead can only stagger the imagination, but dear Christian we must resist.  Only Jesus Christ is the Wonderful Counselor who changes our behavior and brings healing to the whole person.

Friends, this is really scary, because Ahmadinejad believes that he has the backing of Allah in whatever he does or plans to do on February 11^th 2010. And if he is able to carry it off then he will see it as the will of Allah that will only embolden him to carry out even more telling blows upon the West.  Moreover he has indicated that the United States is the Great Satan, which is one- step-removed from believing that her leader is the dreaded Anti-Christ spoken of in the Christian Bible.

“In the Book of Revelation it indicates that the sixth angel sounded his trumpet and the four angels who are bound at the great River Euphrates are released which in prophecy these particular angels signify a representative of an earthly kingdom or nation (See Revelation 9:12-19). The four nations from the area of the Euphrates River will arise and mount an army in the millions to kill indiscriminately men, women and children with ”fire, smoke, and sulfur” – sounds like explosives. This demonic scourge from the East will kill a third of mankind. And we call it terrorism.”  (Final Warning, By Rev. Daniel W. Blair)

Let’s count the nations. There is Iraq (which we believe is now under control) there is Afghanistan (which is like trying to make a deal with the devil) there is Pakistan (who is holding on by a thread and sitting on an nuclear arsenal) and then there is Iran wanting to pull it all together with one powerful (or telling) blow.  Is it to unite all the radical Muslims from around the world to follow President Almadinejad’s in a united front against the West?

Mahmoud Ahmadinehad should be taken seriously.  If he says “I will wipe Israel off the map” then he truly has the will to do it.  We can only hope and pray that he does not yet have the means!  Although this administration takes him more seriously than her citizens by the increasing military presence in that part of the world, she still greatly underestimates the Biblical prophecy that warns about these coming events in history.  As the author of the book “Final Warning” I encourage Christians from around the world to get on their knees and pray earnestly that we have more time for self-reflection, repentance, and witness to the saving gospel of Jesus Christ.

Built on the same foundation as Ancient Rome

To fully understand what the last kingdom [or the coming of the New World Order] looks like … it will be necessary to take a closer look at Ancient Rome. Rome was a city that was quite full of itself. “All roads lead to Rome” was a favorite saying back then indicating its economic dependence on the other nations in the known world to produce its luxuries, its goods, and a labor force unlike the world had ever known. And what it could not buy it would conquer and acquire for the good of Rome. Along with these goods and people that came from every nation was every religion and philosophy known to man. They came in like a flood.

Truly Ancient Rome had become the first melting pot of different people, religions, and beliefs, to one day be followed by the new Global City [or the New World Order]. But to have so many different gods, religions, and beliefs, there needed to be a different kind of tolerance, a tolerance that would accept everyone’s belief on an equal footing. [In the coming New World Order the population will be forced to deny absolute truth and the exclusiveness of Christianity, much in the same way as Ancient Rome.] In Rome it did not matter how many gods you had in your house. One god was just as good as another as long as you did not claim one to be more superior than the rest. To do so would be outright treason and a crime against the state. Even the emperor who one day would claim his own divinity did not claim to be above the rest, but did claim his right to tolerance that all would equally accept his belief just as valid as they would accept others.

This became a huge problem for Christianity, which claimed only one true God who indeed is above all other gods. This same problem will arise in the last days during the Great Tribulation. We have already seen the seeds of the rebellion. Christian writers have already written about the new tolerance that has taken the United States by storm, claiming that every person’s belief and opinion is just as valid as the next. This has opened Pandora’s Box allowing every imaginable evil to co-exist as valid expressions of one’s own belief and practice. Christians are already being assaulted and denied access because of their faith in the one and only true God. But as we shall see this is only the beginning; the worse is yet to come.

Rome guarded and flaunted its glory to the world at large and challenged anyone who would question it. Everything was done for the glory of Rome. To speak against Rome was treason. It lifted itself up to the heavens to be adored by all sensible men. She claimed that everything good, decent, and honorable was within her gates. She claimed for herself the highest honor, a majestic city sitting on seven hills as a glorious queen sits on her throne. Rome had its pageants, its theaters, its games, its banquets and it was the envy of the known world. Rome was wealthy and many lived a life of extravagance. As wealth and prosperity flowed throughout the provinces of Rome and into her inner streets, she became obsessed with wealth, which opened up the experimentation of every kind of evil to satisfy her hunger.

The rich and the famous created a new form of entertainment the world had not really known—to take public pleasure in the destruction of human life. It was not long before they realized that this was just what the people needed to keep them entertained and under total control. Only one thing was needed to complete Rome’s grip on the masses—to keep everyone under her control and submissive to her rulers. They needed bread. Supply the people with entertainment and food and you have them right where you want them—under your control. Think about the massive entertainment industry in the present world, [the push for a government run health care program] and the elaborate food programs run by the global community and we are not far removed from ancient Rome who had the ability to control and lead her people to worship Caesar as Lord.

Man’s attempt to build the city of man will fail. It has throughout the long history of mankind and it will culminate in the destruction of the last city to be built by self-righteous man. We can point to all of the great cities in our world today and we see essentially the same thing. Mankind is attempting to build his city without God and for those countries that started with God He is now being evicted, thrown out, censored, and His existence denied. When good is uprooted by evil and God is denied by the city of man it will come to nothing, it will be ultimately destroyed.

• The Great City Becomes Global •

In these last days it is clear that one nation will arise above the rest in power, wealth, and influence to unite the world into a new Global City [or a New World Order]. We will examine each of its characteristics and specifically how its new state religion will threaten biblical Christianity. Then we will follow how the new Global City will teach the other nations to “drink the maddening wine of her adulteries.” We will also show from the prophecy in Revelation how this new Global City, much like ancient Rome, will have a similar fate to the world’s shock and amazement.

The new Global City is the great design of the 21^st Century. Fallen humanity believes it has finally reached its golden age, where it can solve all the problems facing humanity, such as feeding the poor, healing the sick, crushing the terrorists, predicting the storms or foolishly trying to control them, counseling the depressed, and bringing the world together in a spirit of partnership, mutual respect, and tolerance for everyone’s beliefs. Let’s examine each of its characteristics keeping in mind while this new kingdom may appear to be as strong as iron it is at the same time as weak and as brittle as clay.

• A New World Economy •

The first characteristic of the new Global City boasts of a new world economy based on capitalism [a progressive capitalism with a mixture of Socialism and Marxism] that leads man to worship the works of his own hands through materialistic gain, avarice, and greed. This new world economy is built on the same crumbling foundation as that of Ancient Rome. It uses the natural resources of the weaker and poorer countries to supply the needs of the rich. It uses the manual labor of those same countries to provide manufactured goods cheaply to be resold for a higher profit to the wealthy. Have we ever wondered why so many products are made in China and shipped to this country? The Bible says, “The kings of the earth committed adultery with her (the new Global City), and the merchants of the earth grew rich from her excessive luxuries” (Rev. 18:3b).

And if a nation is unwilling to participate in the new world economy of the Global City it is no longer forcefully taken over as was the case in previous generations of imperialism. Rather the new Global City has a new tactic to inject its greedy capitalism into the government and social fabric of the nation being taken over. This tactic consists of giving the veiled appearance of coming to their rescue as the deliverer, because of some natural disaster or ferociousness of an evil dictator. In either case, the beleaguered country is in need of reconstruction by the Global City. And as big business steps up to the plate to do the reconstruction it has almost no legal and governmental restraints. Big business is given huge tax incentives, and with its push to privatize everything it’s now free to buy and control much of the host countries infrastructure, such as telephone, gas and electric, and the water works just to name a few.

This of course is just the tip of the iceberg, because once the country is stabilized, it’s time to bring in the rest of big business. They have the locals (who are paid far less) to work in their factories, to produce the world’s goods to the highest bidder, or to build fancy resorts on their pristine beaches to be visited by the rich and famous. Now a most interesting thing occurs which fulfills the mission of these greedy capitalists: the locals now desire to participate in the collection of material wealth to their own demise. And of course the new Global City is more than willing to oblige by marketing the world’s goods to the locals which will keep them working, consuming, and in debt. And in the end they will be loving and serving money to the exclusion of traditional family values. Remember it was Christ who said, “No one can serve two masters. Either he will hate the one and love the other, or he will be devoted to the one and despise the other. You cannot serve both God and Money” (Mt. 6:24).

To drive this economy and lead the nations to worship materialistic gain and to develop the spirit of greed and avarice is the modern innovation of sales and marketing. With the use of television beaming its signal around the world along with print media, fallen humanity is being convinced that they need the world’s goods and services. Psychological profiling and innovative marketing techniques have become so good that they know what it takes to convince you to buy their product. For example, buying that new clothes outfit, having your hair done or your nails polished is said to make you attractive, popular, and in the end will feed your vanity. To buy a new car will meet your needs for thrill, excitement, and that magic romance. And prescription drug companies have also picked up on the same marketing techniques by promising no more pain, new found friends, incredible joy and absolute freedom for just popping their pill.

With the onslaught of advertising campaigns, fallen humanity is no longer satisfied with just the basic needs of food, water, clothing, and shelter. There is so much more to be had, which promises to fill your every desire, and the world is even allowing you to put it on credit. “Buy now and pay later.” Yet we are not told that indebtedness is the modern equivalent to slavery. Man has become enslaved to his possessions and the desire to continually replace or upgrade them. This is realized in the shopping frenzy during the holidays and the daily shopping for goods and services that has become an obsession for most of fallen humanity.

In the city of man, fallen humanity is devoted to money and what it can buy. The value of money is in its purchasing power, and if money loses its value then the power of purchasing is diminished. Therefore, the city of man anxiously keeps the economy on an upward trend increasing the value of money and its purchasing power. And he accomplishes this in a number of ways, but primarily by producing more for less, thus raping the world of its natural resources and keeping the largest part of the world in poverty. By producing more products to fill the needs of an ever-increasing number of consumers, the world’s natural resources are being consumed at an alarming rate. At one time it was only the countries in the West that consumed the most, but with the spread of the new Global City everyone is becoming a consumer and a slave to money. But that’s not the whole story because goods are made cheaper and cheaper so that they need to always be replaced by a consumer driven society, which also depletes the world of its natural resources, polluting the air we breathe, the water we drink, and crowding our landfills.

Not only is fallen humanity raping the world of its natural resources but it is purposely keeping large portions of the world in poverty to be the productive drones for the rest of humanity. Common sense dictates that workers in poor countries need fewer wages to produce thus turning a larger profit for the greedy capitalist of the new Global City. Big business has recently pushed free trade, outsourcing, and reconstruction to fill the coffers of the rich on the backs of the poor. It’s really a double-edged sword that’s robbing the poor, leading them to a life of servitude, and teaching them how to rob others in the name of progressive capitalism, which fulfills the prophecy of the new Global City of man. Within this new Global City are its own seeds of destruction.

• A New Philosophy of Tolerance •

A second characteristic of this new Global City is tolerance, a tolerance that embraces every man’s religion or non-religion, and every man’s belief just as valid as the next. Perhaps it all began under the guise of religious tolerance, but has now developed into a major world philosophy. This new philosophy of tolerance reduces all the world religions and other world philosophies to mere personal preferences that must not have any real voice or value in the new Global City of man. It’s their answer in throwing off the “so-called” restraints of religion, thus having the freedom to evolve into a perfect society. Yet to evict God from any society will lead it back into the dark ages where mankind will grope around in darkness trying to find his way. And, as we shall see in this little book, to evict God from the city of man will invite destruction of a biblical proportion.

A mandated philosophy of tolerance encourages everyone to develop his own belief system by acquiring principles from each of the world religions, philosophies, psychologies, mythology, Satanism, and a mixed bag of new age thinking. It’s no longer politically correct to challenge a man about his belief system as long as he does not force his beliefs on others or the state. Man is no longer held accountable for his beliefs as long as he contributes to society and willing to undergo behavior modification if deemed necessary by those in power. We can only imagine where all this foolishness will lead the new Global City.

How important is belief? Is it possible to believe anything we want and allow it not to direct our actions? For example, if two men believe it’s okay to burn for each other then that kind of thinking could cast them into a bed of sexual immorality, making it possible to contract the AIDS virus, or even experience the agonizing pain of an early death. Another example, if a man believes there is no absolute truth then his freedom to dabble in all the world religions and systems of thought will only lead him down a dark alley of confusion and moral degeneration. I am afraid when we lose our moral anchor by believing whatever seems right in our own eyes and allowing others to do the same, then lawlessness will prevail and the foundations of the city will crumble. This new philosophy of tolerance and the Global City’s aggressiveness to assimilate other cultures and belief systems has become the Trojan Horse of the 21st Century allowing every evil and foul spirit to enter the gates of the Global City to its own demise.

• A New Secular Worldview •

Another characteristic of this new Global City is its secular worldview of Mother Nature that usurps the sovereignty of God over His creation and ascribes everything to a non-entity. This has become necessary in a tolerant society that has accepted all gods and secular philosophies as equal. To attribute anything to one God or deity would offend the non-religious. Therefore, God is dethroned in the new Global City and substituted with the new goddess of nature.

When storms arise, tornadoes strike, earthquakes shake, and any other natural event occurs it is now glibly attributed to the workings of Mother Nature. To reject God as the Creator and the One over His creation engenders a fatalistic attitude that whatever happens will happen and is completely out of anyone’s control. This kind of thinking has many scurrying off to the scientist to get logical explanations on what is causing all the natural upheavals and cataclysmic events. Even with a scientific explanation on what may cause an event, it still leaves everything to chance, which strikes fear into the hearts of men.

The horrific outcome of such thinking will drive many to experiment in magic, charms, amulets, and spells in seeking to control events or forces of nature. With the assimilation of all the world cultures, it has given the new Global City much to choose from in its quest to control one’s own destiny in its relationship to the natural environment. I have seen this even among so-called believing Christians who have purchased things from the global market to help protect themselves, their home, and their personal belongings from both seen and unseen natural events. God is no longer seen as the Controller of His creation that sends the storms, withholds the rains, or brings down cities with massive earthquakes, all of which will keep fallen humanity from repenting of their evil ways. Everything that happens in the world is under God’s direct control. Nothing happens by accident.

• A New Religion in Disguise •

Another characteristic of this new Global City is its art of psychological counseling for the masses, a world religion in disguise that attempts to modify man’s behavior and the ailments of his heart through its therapeutic counseling and administering of prescription drugs. It’s all quite logical: if you remove God, who is the only One that can change man’s behavior and heal the ailments of his heart, then something must take His place and that’s where psychology exerts its authority over the masses.

Man since the beginning of time has always needed someone to turn to when things went wrong with his heart and his life. He would either turn to the witch doctor, a guru, or a priest. He always needed something higher than himself to help him to be all that he envisioned himself to be. He needed someone to make intercession to the gods. In time there was a level of trust developed between the religious professional and his adherents. In many of the world religions they would use drugs to obtain a mystical experience or a higher level of consciousness. Most of these world religions exerted authority over their people while promising to help them with physical ailments, mental anguish, and emotional trauma.

With the discovery of psychology, its therapeutic techniques, and new mind-altering drugs, a new “religious” professional has arrived on the scene claiming to be nonreligious and available to every nation, tribe, people, and tongue. Instead of interceding with the gods, this new professional of psychology becomes the ultimate authority. He promises to help his counselees with their mental anguish, emotional trauma, and even some of their consequential physical ailments. In time a level of trust is developed between the counselee and the new “religious” professional. Although many of their patients are never cured, their behavior never changed, they have become addicted to the new mind-altering drugs, and have gotten worse because of it. Yet they grow ever more dependent on the professional psychologist and all the drugs he has to offer.

It is sad to say that many who claim to know God no longer trust Him to change their behavior or heal their heart and so they turn to the new “religious” professional, who has usurped the authority of God and His spiritual counsel. The Bible says that Jesus Christ, the Son of God, is our Wonderful Counselor (See Is. 9:6). He has given us everything we need for life and godliness through the written Word and the indwelling Spirit. To change counselors, to transfer our trust to another, to take mind-altering drugs is paramount in not remaining faithful to Jesus.

• A New World Democracy •

Another characteristic of this new Global City is the establishment of a new world democracy, which allows the majority to make ethical and moral decisions for the rest of us even if it’s wrong in the eyes of the few. When the majority makes good moral and ethical choices for all concerned then democracy is a good thing, but when the moral and ethical minority looses its voice and its ability to bring about change, then it can be devastating. With the increase of evil and godlessness in the last days this new world democracy will continue to usurp the authority of

God, promote all of its godless programs as previously discussed, and require that the masses adhere to them.

This is another Trojan Horse that is bursting through the gates of every nation with its promise of religious tolerance, individual rights, and membership in the world community. Why is world democracy so important in the establishment of the new Global City? There are a number of reasons, but perhaps the major reason is that it’s easier to influence, manipulate, and control the masses of countries that participate in the new world democracy than closed countries that continue in their dictatorial rule. We live in a new age where it is no longer necessary to forcefully take over a country once it becomes a part of the new world democracy. Once individual freedoms are put into place, such as religious tolerance, the art of psychology, and partnership in the world economy, then the people in each respective country are only one step from having their hearts and minds influenced, manipulated, and eventually controlled.

And of course the question arises, how is this accomplished? Part of the question is already answered in the establishment of religious tolerance, which gives them the freedom to believe whatever they want even if it’s immoral and does not align with their old traditional and religious beliefs. Secondly, with the establishment of the art of psychology it leads the people to transfer their trust from God (or tribal deity) to a state-run agency and its array of mind-altering drugs. And finally, with the establishment of some form of capitalism [progressive in nature with a mixture of Socialism and Marxism] and their participation into the new world economy it leads the people to individually compete for the world’s goods and wealth even if it separates them from their traditional family values.

Once the people are separated from their old traditions, religious beliefs, their trust in God, and their traditional family values, then they are ready to be assimilated into the new Global City. The second part of the question on how to influence the masses and continue the assimilation process can be answered by demonstrating the power and influence of the mass media through the mediums of television, radio, print media, and the Internet, which will be covered in greater detail under the section “Influence of the Global City.” At this point let it be said that once a country opens its doors to the Trojan Horse of a new world democracy it will receive a lot more than what it bargained for, because it will be filled with corruption, greed, sexual immorality, and excessive criminal activity.

• A New World Order •

The final characteristic of this new Global City is the establishment of a new world order, which is man’s attempt to establish a new collective consciousness and unity of thought and action. In the Global City’s aggressiveness to assimilate all cultures through the philosophy of tolerance, a new world democracy, and the art of psychology (the new world religion in disguise) it is now in the final stage and seeks to establish the new collective consciousness and unity of thought and action. Resistance appears to be futile.

It’s the Global City’s agenda to keep the masses quiet in their own homes watching TV, or on the Internet, purchasing their goods and services, taking their drugs, paying their taxes, visiting their psychologist, elevating self, and participating in the new tolerance. All of which brings them to the altar of the beast and acceptance into the new world order. Have we become living drones, who are mesmerized, materialistic, greedy, over medicated, passive, psychoanalyzed, proud and gullible? All that’s left . . . is worship of the beast [or Anti-Christ]!

The new world order in its attempt to establish this new collective consciousness will influence everyone to log on to their personal computer (PC): to control their finances, manage their health care, touch base with their psychologist, meet their new mate, purchase their goods and services and enter the chat room to establish new cyber relationships. Many are now logging on daily to participate in a new virtual game that competes with others in an attempt to acquire wealth, prosperity, and personal prestige. This game has already attracted thousands, perhaps millions of people around the world into a new global community of willing participants that consumes most of their time, energy, and resources. Unfortunately, this is only the tip of the iceberg. Where this will all lead is not yet fully known, yet with fallen humanity already being tied to their computers one can only imagine the extent of integration between humanity, cyber space, and the new collective consciousness. Resistance is not futile! We can and must resist the new world order and its plans to produce a new collective consciousness!

In the next chapter, in my book Final Warning, we will continue with our discussion about the destruction of the Global City. What lies ahead may shock you!

Not only does Barack Obama deny the exclusiveness of the Christian Bible, but he denies the exclusiveness of Christ as the only Son of God. Obama’s speech to the Muslim world made the other prophets equal to Christ. He does this by quoting from the Muslim story of Isra as if he were quoting the very truth of God. He said, “When Jerusalem is a secure and lasting home for Jews and Christians and Muslims, and a place for all of the children of Abraham to mingle peacefully together as in the story of Isra, when Moses, Jesus, and Mohammed (peace be upon them) joined in prayer.” The story of Isra indicates that the archangel Gabriel comes to Mohammed and carries him to the temple mount of Jerusalem. It also indicates that the second part of the journey takes Mohammed to the heavens, where he tours the circles of heaven, and speaks with the earlier prophets such as Abraham, Moses, and Jesus, and then is taken by Gabriel to Allah.

For Barack Hussein Obama to unite every, “tribe, people, language, and nation” together as the new world order he must first of all do away with the exclusiveness of Christianity. Jesus Christ can no longer be seen as the last Prophet and true Son of God. Christ said that, “False Christ’s and false prophets will appear and perform great signs and miracles to deceive even the elect – if that were possible. See, I have told you ahead of time.” (Mt.24:24) So this means if anyone who comes claiming to be equal or more than Jesus Christ is a false prophet and must be rejected on the grounds of Holy Scripture. Furthermore, Jesus Christ said, “I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except trough me.” (John 14:6) We simply cannot allow Christ to be put on the same level as Mohammed or any other prophet. To do so will destroy the very foundations of Christianity and allow the Antichrist to rule the world.

In the Bible, we find that depression is often the result of exhaustion and will often follow great success (1 Kings 19:1,9). It is noteworthy that depression is a process of thinking that one is lacking and/or is deserving of something that has not been attained. This was certainly the case for Elijah, Hannah, Peter, and many others. They were left feeling vulnerable and hopeless.

What does the Bible prescribe for depression? Is it medication or meditation?

Psalm 42:6 O my God, my soul is cast down within me: therefore will I remember thee…

Depression will be relieved by meditating on God’s Word. Depression is one of the most common emotional ailments. The antidote for depression is to meditate on the record of God’s goodness.  Resorting to anti-depressants should be avoided as an alternative to the Word of God under the direct influence of the indwelling Holy Spirit. Anti-depressants can never aid in spiritual well being and never addresses the cause of one’s depression.

Depression can be relieved by patience. Later in this psalm (42:11) the writer tells his own soul to be patient. Knowing that God is working all things to together for good is a fact that stimulates patience. While it is a fact that God is at work on our behalf… this fact may not make the darkness bright, but it will make it more bearable until the morning.

Very importantly, depression can be relieved by expecting God to act. The psalmist confidently closes this song with a statement of hope in the midst of difficult emotions. We may not feel like it, but we know that we will again have plenty of reason to praise Christ for all what He is and will do because we know what He already did for us (42:11) Amen!

History of the New World Religion (godless Psychology)

Why do people act or think as they do? Why do some people seem to have more problems than others or have difficulty resolving them? These are questions that have plagued mankind from the beginning. World religions and philosophies have attempted to answer these questions and have led millions to follow their creeds and methodologies to deal with life’s problems.

Then there was the rise of psychology with the first psychiatric hospitals and insane asylums being set up by Muslim physicians in Baghdad, Iraq in 750 AD. Then fifty years later psychiatric hospitals were introduced in Cairo, Egypt. And then in 850 AD Ali ibm Sahl Rabban al-Tabari developed the idea of using clinical psychiatry to treat mentally ill patients. In 1270 famous psychiatric hospitals were built in Damascus and Aleppo in Syria. By the Nineteenth Century it had moved to Europe with Soren Kierkegaard writing the first exposition on anxiety and by 1875 William James opened the first experimental psychology laboratory in the United States. Throughout this period experimental psychology research laboratories were opened in such universities as John Hopkins University, University of Pennsylvania, Harvard, Indiana University, and the University of Chicago. At this point psychology was primarily experimental and dealt specifically with those who suffered from insanity. They had not appeared to be a threat to organized religion.

In the next period psychology took on a whole new meaning introducing group therapy, the study of behavior, ‘Counseling and Psychotherapy’ suggesting that respect and non-judgmental approach to therapy is the foundation for effective treatment of mental health issues. At this point the patient which includes more than just the insane is no longer responsible for his behavior, but is mentally ill or just plain sick. By 1949 the Bolder Conferences outlined scientist-practitioner model of clinical psychology, looking at M.D., versus PHD used by medical providers and researchers, respectively. In 1952 modern psychology produced mental illness classifications, thus attaching labels to certain perceived illnesses and then the following year B.F. Skinner outlined his behavioral therapy. And then by 1968 there was the first Doctor of Psychology (Psy.D) professional degree program in Clinical Psychology. Clearly at this point psychology has passed the line by making them professionals on what causes behavior problems, how to deal with life’s problems, and introducing behavior modification.

In the last period clinical psychology has spread throughout the world and most predominately in the West and specifically in the United States claiming to understand and classify man’s behavior problems. Moreover, they claim that they can actually bring about change to the individual through an array of counseling techniques developed over the past 100 years and the administering of prescription drugs. This has become so widespread in this country almost no one questions their ability to do what they claim. In 1994 Antonio Damasio proposed his somatic-marker hypothesis by which emotional processes can guide (or bias) behavior, particularly decision making. But why do I call this the new world religion? Simply put it makes the same claims as biblical Christianity and in the process has deceived millions from around the world to follow its practices and methods in dealing with life’s issues. Moreover, they have for the most part unknowingly transferred their trust in God to deliver them from their bondage of sin to trusting in this new world religion to solve their problems and give them the ability and guidance in dealing with life’s difficulties.

Yet Centuries ago Jesus Christ carried the same message as His Father in Heaven that sin and separation from God is the only cause of bad behavior and the inability to face life’s most difficult issues. Jesus Christ and His followers preached the only cure for bad behavior and how to deal with life’s problems. His gospel message was that through forgiveness of sin and faith in Jesus Christ we would be made into a new creation where old things would pass away and all things would be new. (See II Cor. 5:17) How new would this life be? The barnacles of the old sin nature fall off and the new life in Christ experiences the love and grace of God as it’s poured into our heart by the Holy Spirit. The Holy Spirit is our guide in decision making, no longer controlled by our emotions we experience the joy of being in Christ that permeates our entire nature. Unlike the methodologies of godless psychology, God does the work of changing our behavior and making us into the perfect image of His Son Jesus Christ. The Psalmist said, “Unless the Lord builds the house its builder’s labor in vain.” (Psalm 27:1) Furthermore, as we will explore later, the Bible has given us every thing we need for life and godliness (see II Peter 1:3-4).

Jesus Christ is the Wonderful counselor who has given us His Spirit to work in us to the glory of God. The Apostle Paul said, “But even if we or an angel from heaven preach a gospel other than the one we preached to you, let him be eternally condemned!” (Ga. 1:8) And dear friends, that is exactly what the doctors’ of psychology are doing; they are preaching a different gospel.

I never said that President Obama was the Antichrist. I did say, however, that he has demonstrated some characteristics of the Antichrist (or the Beast) that will come upon the scene in the last days prior to Christ’s Second Coming in glory.

The Bible was quoted that says the Beast would come out of the sea (Revelation 13:1) and then I gave the clear interpretation, which was deleted (or should I say edited) from my interview. This is a symbol that indicates that the Beast will arise at a time of great turbulence in the world, which will allow him to come as a savior for the world, promising them hope and change. It also indicates that he will come out of obscurity to arise suddenly to great prominence and authority. I have written in my book, Final Warning, published three years ago, “The Beast is the manifestation of the dragon (Satan) in worldly power. For the Beast to come out of the sea symbolizes that he is manifested at a time of great turbulence among the nations, at a time when the Christian Church loses its credibility and influence, and at a time when the nations have lost their moral anchor.”

The Bible was quoted that the Beast (or the Antichrist) will resemble a leopard (Revelation 13:2) and then I gave the clear interpretation that this symbol indicates that he would be “swift” like a leopard. Again this was explained in length that the Antichrist (or Beast) would move very quickly to enact laws and pass legislation that would give him greater power over the masses. He would move so quickly that most people will not have time to understand what is taking place or the laws that are being enacted. He does this with polished rhetoric leading the world to just put their trust in him and his administration and not question his authority as he moves “swiftly” to change the direction of the nation and the world.

The Bible was quoted that the Beast (or the Antichrist) would have feet like a bear (Revelation 13:2) and then I gave the clear interpretation that this indicates that he will be crushing in his defeat. Again I explained in detail that the Antichrist (or the Beast) will reach out to the entire world to offer peace to anyone who unclenches his fist and for those who refuse they will be soundly defeated. He will attempt to be all things to all people. He will reach out to the believer and the unbeliever, the homosexual and the straight, the Christian and the Muslim in an attempt to gray the lines of intolerance and the exclusiveness of Christianity. I also wrote in my book, Final Warning, published three years ago “This further indicates that he is quick in his advance, crushing in his defeat, and bold in his decision to make war with anyone or any nation who stands in his way to build the Global City of man.”

The Bible was quoted that the Beast (or the Antichrist) would have a mouth like a lion (Revelation 13:2) and then I gave the clear interpretation that this symbolizes his great authority among the nations. (See my book Final Warning). He will speak with boldness and clarity leading people to put their trust in him and his administration. Many of his social programs are designed to lead the world to put their trust in godless psychology and the addiction of prescription drugs instead of trusting in Christ alone who is their Wonderful Counselor and Healer.

Perhaps I should not be concerned that the Daily Show tried to make me look like an idiot, but I am saddened that the cause of Christ is damaged for their ratings. Furthermore, the whole point of the interview was entirely missed where I emphatically articulated that Obama is leading the entire population to trust in self and his ability to build the perfect society – “Yes we can.” Whereas Jesus Christ is the only One who can bring peace and salvation to the world – “we can’t, but He can.” Anyone who leads you away from trusting in Christ Jesus exclusively is an Antichrist.
