REVELATION AND THE SECOND COMING
LESSON #47
RELIGIOUS AND POLITICAL SYSTEMS UNITED

• MEMORY VERSE: PRO 8:15

• IN REVELATION 17 AND 18 WE SAW THAT THE WORLD SYSTEM LED BY THE ANTI-CHRIST CONSISTS OF RELIGION, ECONOMICS, AND GOVERNMENT:
• RELIGION:
• THIS RELIGION FIRST CONSISTS OF AN APOSTATE CHRISTIANITY AND ANCIENT PAGANISM MIXED.
• WHEN THE ANTI-CHRIST DESTROYS THE CHRISTIAN ASPECTS WITH THE BURNING OF ROME IN THE MIDDLE OF THE TRIBULATION PERIOD, ONLY ANCIENT PAGANISM IS LEFT. IT’S HEADQUARTERS ARE IN BABYLON.
• THIS WORLD RELIGION WILL POINT PEOPLE TO THE WORSHIP OF THE ANTI-CHRIST WHO IS INDWELT BY SATAN.
• ECONOMICS:
• WITH THE ECONOMIC COLLAPSE ON A WORLD-WIDE LEVEL, THE ANTI-CHRIST WILL INITIATE THE MARK OF THE BEAST (666) IN THE MIDDLE OF THE TRIBULATION PERIOD.
• GOVERNMENT AND POLITICS:
• THE ASPECT OF THE ANTI-CHRIST’S SYSTEM THAT WE HAVE NOT STUDIED IS THE MIXTURE OF RELIGION WITH GOVERNMENT AND POLITICS ON A WORLD LEVEL. THAT IS OUR STUDY IN THIS LESSON.
• THIS MIXTURE OF POLITICS AND RELIGION HAS BEEN GROWING ON A WORLD LEVEL IRRESPECTIVE OF NATIONAL AND GEOGRAPHIC BORDERS.

• WHAT ARE THE ROOTS OF A UNITED RELIGIOUS, ECONOMIC, AND POLITICAL SYSTEM?
• THE ILLUMINATI (ILLUMINATED FREEMASONRY):
• THIS IS AN ORGANIZATION FOUNDED IN 1776 IN GERMANY BY ADAM WEISHAUPT, A MASON. IT WAS AN ULTRA-SECRET ORGANIZATION (A MYSTERY SOCIETY). IT WAS ORGANIZED FOR TOP-LEVEL MASONS.
• THIS ORGANIZATION CARRIED OUT THE FRENCH REVOLUTION AND CONSPIRED WITH KARL MARX TO PRODUCE A PLAN FOR WORLD DOMINATION.
• GUISEPPE MAGAZINE WAS AN ILLUMINATI PUBLICATION WRITTEN BY ALBERT PIKE, THE FATHER OF THE MODERN MASONS. IN 1871, HE DESCRIBED A FUTURE WAR IGNITED BY A SPARK BETWEEN ISLAM AND JUDAISM THAT WOULD BE NECESSARY TO BRING IN THE NEW WORLD ORDER.
• THE BELIEFS OF THE ILLUMINATI:
• THEY BELIEVED THAT THEY HAD FOUND SPIRITUAL LIGHT AND WERE QUALIFIED TO RULE THE REST OF HUMANITY. AT YALE UNIVERSITY, THE ILLUMINATI IS CALLED SKULL AND BONES (1856). AT OXFORD UNIVERSITY THEY WERE CALLED “THE ORDER” (1904). THEY WERE ALSO KNOWN AS THE FABIAN SOCIETY.
• MANY POLITICAL LEADERS IN THE UNITED STATES BELONG TO THESE ORGANIZATIONS.
• THE ILLUMINATI WAS FUNDED BY THE INTERNATIONAL BANKING CARTEL.
• ADAM WEISHAUPT WAS A FRIEND OF THE ROTHCHILD BANKING FAMILY.
• THE ILLUMINATI WAS OFFICIALLY DISBANDED ABOUT 1780 BECAUSE OF ADVERSE PUBLICITY. HOWEVER, WITH THE HELP OF THE BANKING CARTEL, IT WAS RE-ESTABLISHED IN 1919-1921 WITH A NEW NAME, THE COUNCIL ON FOREIGN RELATIONS (CFR). THIS NEW ORGANIZATION WAS INSTRUMENTAL IN ESTABLISHING THE UNITED NATIONS ORGANIZATION. THE COUNCIL ON FOREIGN RELATIONS STILL EXISTS TODAY. MANY OF OUR GOVERNMENT LEADERS IN THE UNITED STATES ARE MEMBERS OF THIS COUNCIL.
• THE PYRAMID SYMBOL ON THE U. S. DOLLAR BILL COMES DIRECTLY FROM THE ILLUMINATI ORGANIZATION.
• THE MEMBERSHIP LIST OF THE COUNCIL ON FOREIGN RELATIONS HAS MANY OF THE SAME MEMBERS AS THE THEOSOPHICAL SOCIETY (SEE LESSON #45).
• YOU CAN FIND THE MAGAZINE PUBLISHED BY THE COUNCIL ON FOREIGN RELATIONS IN MOST LIBRARIES. IT IS CALLED, FOREIGN RELATIONS.
• THE BILDERBERGERS:
• THIS IS A SISTER ORGANIZATION TO THE COUNCIL ON FOREIGN RELATIONS. IT WAS FOUNDED IN EUROPE IN 1954.
• THIS ORGANIZATION FOUNDED THE EUROPEAN UNION WHICH WAS FINANCED BY THE AMERICAN CENTRAL INTELLIGENCE AGENCY (CIA).
• MEMBERS OF THIS ORGANIZATION ARE THE LEADERS OF THE NORTH ATLANTIC TREATY ORGANIZATION (NATO) THAT MILITARILY PROTECTS WESTERN EUROPE.
• THE PLAN AND PURPOSE OF THE BILDERBERGERS IS TO COORDINATE THE EUROPEAN PORTION OF THE NEW WORLD ORDER. THEY ARE PRIMARILY CONCERNED WITH MILITARY AND STRATEGIC MATTERS.
• THEY HAVE DIVIDED THE WORLD INTO THREE SPHERES: EUROPE, THE AMERICAS, AND THE ASIAN RIM.
• UNDER THESE THREE SPHERES, THE WORLD IS FURTHER DIVIDED INTO 10 KINGDOMS ORGANIZED BY THE CLUB OF ROME.
• THE CLUB OF ROME:
• THIS IS AN ELITE GLOBALIST ORGANIZATION FOUNDED IN 1968 IN ROME.
• THEY HAVE DIVIDED THE WORLD INTO 10 POLITICAL REGIONS CALLED “KINGDOMS”.
• #1 CANADA AND THE UNITED STATES
• #2 THE EUROPEAN UNION AND WESTERN EUROPE
• #3 JAPAN
• #4 AUSTRALIA, NEW ZEALAND, SOUTH AFRICA, ISRAEL, AND THE PACIFIC ISLANDS
• #5 EASTERN EUROPE
• #6 LATIN AMERICA, MEXICO, CENTRAL AND SOUTH AMERICA
• #7 NORTH AFRICA AND MUSLIM MIDDLE EAST
• #8 CENTRAL AFRICA
• #9 SOUTH AND SOUTHEAST ASIA
• #10 CENTRAL ASIA
• THE CLUB OF ROME DESIRES A ONE-WORLD DICTATOR, A CHARISMATIC LEADER, WHO HAS SCIENTIFIC, POLITICAL, AND RELIGIOUS KNOWLEDGE.
• THEY SAY THAT THIS DICTATOR WOULD BE THE WORLD’S ONLY SALVATION FROM THE SOCIAL AND ECONOMIC UPHEAVALS THAT THREATEN TO DESTROY CIVILIZATION.
• THIS LEADER WOULD HAVE POWER TO OVERRIDE NATIONAL AND INTERNATIONAL INTERESTS AS WELL AS POLITICAL AND ECONOMIC STRUCTURES IN ORDER TO LEAD HUMANITY AWAY FROM MALADIES THAT AFFECT IT. “ONLY A REVOLUTION, THE SUBSTITUTION OF A NEW WORLD ECONOMIC ORDER, CAN SAVE US!”
• THE TRILATERAL COMMISSION:
• THIS ORGANIZATION WAS FOUNDED IN 1973 IN NEW YORK BY THE INTERNATIONAL BANKER, DAVID ROCKERFELLER AND ZBIGNIEW BRZEZINSKI (THE NATIONAL SECURITY ADVISOR OF PRESIDENT JIMMY CARTER).
• THIS ORGANIZATION AUGMENTS THE REGIONALIZATION EFFORTS OF IT SISTER ORGANIZATIONS HAVING DIVIDED THE WORLD INTO THE SAME 3 SPHERES: AMERICA, WESTERN EUROPE, AND JAPAN.
• THE PURPOSE OF THE TRILATERAL COMMISSION:
• THE PURPOSE IS TO CONSOLIDATE POWER WITHIN THESE THREE REGIONS AND THEN MERGE THEM INTO A ONE-WORLD GOVERNMENT.
• THEIR FIRST CONCERN IS ECONOMICS AND POLITICS. THEY HAVE ABOUT 2500 MEMBERS.
• ON JAN 10, 1976 THIRTY TWO UNITED STATES SENATORS AND 92 UNITED STATES REPRESENTATIVES SIGNED A DECLARATION OF INTERDEPENDENCE AUTHORED BY THE TRILATERAL COMMISSION.
• THIS DECLARATION READS IN PART, “TWO CENTURIES AGO OUR FOREFATHERS BROUGHT FORTH A NEW NATION: NOW WE MUST JOIN WITH OTHERS TO BRING FORTH A NEW WORLD ORDER.”
• LUCIS TRUST:
• THIS IS A VERY POWERFUL SATANIC PUBLISHING ORGANIZATION THAT LINKS THE MASONS AND THE GLOBAL AGENDA TO THE ABOVE POLITICAL AND ECONOMIC WORLD POWER GROUPS.
• FOR EXAMPLE: ROBERT MULLER, WITH STRONG TIES TO THE LUCIS TRUST, WAS IN CHARGE OF 32 AGENCIES AND WORLD PROGRAMS IN THE UNITED NATIONS INCLUDING UNICEF (CHILDREN’S FUND), THE WORLD FOOD PROGRAM, THE INTERNATIONAL MONETARY FUND (IMF), INTERNATIONAL LABOR ORGANIZATION, AND UNESCO (U. N. EDUCATIONAL, SCIENTIFIC, AND CULTURAL ORGANIZATION). HE PROMOTES A WORLD EDUCATIONAL SYSTEM THROUGH THE UNITED NATIONS CALLED “WORLD CORE CURRICULUM”. IN THE UNITED STATES IT IS UNDER THE NAME, “GOAL’S 2000” OR “EDUCATION 2000.”.
• FOR EXAMPLE: PRESIDENT GEORGE BUSCH, FATHER OF PRESIDENT GEORGE W. BUSCH, SPOKE ABOUT “THE THOUSAND POINTS OF LIGHT” AND A “NEW WORLD ORDER”. THESE POINTS IN HIS SPEECHES WERE CONCEPTS FROM LUCIS TRUST PUBLICATIONS.
• THE COUNCIL OF EUROPE:
• THIS ORGANIZATION WAS FOUNDED IN 1949 WITH 10 NATIONS FROM THE ORIGINAL ROMAN EMPIRE. THERE ARE 33 NATIONS INCLUDING 9 NATIONS OF EASTERN EUROPE.
• THE UNITED NATIONS:
• THE UNITED NATIONS WAS FIRST ESTABLISHED BY A 14 MEMBER PLANNING COMMITTEE OF WHICH 10 WERE MEMBERS OF THE COUNCIL ON FOREIGN RELATIONS (CFR).
• THE UNITED NATIONS HAS GROWN TO BE A VAST CONGLOMERATE OF RELATED WORLD ORGANIZATIONS AND HAS STREAMLINED ITS POWERS AND ORGANIZATIONAL PROFILE SEVERAL TIMES OVER THE YEARS AND EXPANDING THEIR WORLD POWER EACH TIME.
• FOR EXAMPLE: SINCE THE FIRST GULF WAR, THE UNITED NATIONS HAS THE LEGAL PRECEDENT TO CARVE OUT PROTECTED ZONES FOR A GROUP OF PEOPLE WITHOUT THE APPROVAL OF THE NATION INVOLVED (THE KURDS OF IRAQ).
• THE WORLD COURT PASSED A LAW IN 1988 THAT CREATED A SUPER NATIONAL AGENCY TO IMPOSE ENVIRONMENTAL SANCTIONS AGAINST ANY COUNTRY.
• THE WORLD TRADE ORGANIZATION (WTO) HAS THE POWER TO FORCE A NATION TO OBEY ITS RULINGS EVEN IF THAT NATION MUST CHANGE ITS FEDERAL, STATE, OR LOCAL LAWS IN ORDER TO COMPLY.
• THE PLAN HAS IN MIND A GLOBAL SURCHARGE TAX ON ALL ARMS SALES, ON ALL TRANSNATIONAL MOVEMENT OF CURRENCY, ON ALL INTERNATIONAL TRADE, ON ALL PRODUCTION AND PETROLEUM PRODUCTS, ON INTERNATIONAL AIR AND SEA TRAVEL, A ONE-DAY INCOME TAX ON EVERY MEMBER OF PLANET EARTH EVERY YEAR, AND A ONE TIME GLOBAL TAX. THEY DESIRE A PERMANENT STANDING ARMY UNDER THE CONTROL OF THE UNITED NATIONS SECURITY COUNCIL.
• SOME OF THE PRESSURES FROM THE UNITED NATIONS FOR GLOBAL COMPLIANCE:
• THE INTERNATIONAL MONETARY FUND (IMF) AND THE WORLD BANK PUT PRESSURE ON COUNTRIES TO CONFORM AND COOPERATE WITH THE INTERNATIONAL BANK DEBT RESTRUCTURING PLANS. THEY DO THIS BY TRADING LAND FOR MONEY IN SOUTH AMERICA. GOVERNMENT OWNED COMPANIES ARE TRADED FOR MONEY IN PRIVATIZATION SCHEMES. TO PARTICIPATE IN THE IMF AND THE WORLD BANK, A NATION MUST AGREE TO:
• =1= ACCEPT A FREE MARKET ECONOMY.
• =2= PAY OFF PAST INTERNATIONAL BANK LOANS.
• =3= ELIMINATE NATIONALIZED INDUSTRIES.
• =4= REMOVE ALL BARRIERS TO INTERNATIONAL INVESTMENT AND TRADE THROUGH THE WORLD TRADE ORGANIZATION (WTO).
• THE WORLD CONSTITUTION AND PARLIAMENT ASSOCIATION:
• THIS ORGANIZATION WAS FOUNDED IN 1959 IN LAKEWOOD, COLORADO. IT IS AN ORGANIZATION WITH MANY BRANCHES THAT PROMOTES BRINGING THE UNITED STATES INTO THE NEW WORLD ORDER. (NETWORKING FOR CHANGE 1991)
• THIS ORGANIZATION DRAFTED A WORLD CONSTITUTION AND LOBBY FOR ITS RATIFICATION BY PARLIAMENTS AND GOVERNMENTS OF THE NATIONS OF THE WORLD. ONE HUNDRED THIRTY FIVE PARTICIPANTS SIGNED THE CONSTITUTION TO REPLACE THE UNITED NATIONS CHARTER.
• THIS ORGANIZATION USES THE SAME 10 REGIONAL SPHERES AS THE CLUB OF ROME.
• JESSE JACKSON AND HIS RAINBOW COALITION ARE A VISIBLE PART OF THIS ORGANIZATION.
• IN 1987 THEY ESTABLISHED A WORLD PRESIDIUM AND WORLD CABINET THAT WILL SERVE ALONG WITH A PROVISIONAL WORLD PARLIAMENT UNTIL 25 COUNTRIES RATIFY THE WORLD CONSTITUTION.
• COUNTRIES THAT HAVE RATIFIED THIS CONSTITUTION ARE EGYPT AND PORTUGAL. WHEN 10 NATIONS HAVE RATIFIED IT, THEY WILL ESTABLISH THE EARTH FINANCIAL CREDIT CORPORATION THAT WILL ACTIVATE THE NEW WORLD BANKING SYSTEM AND A NEW GLOBAL MONEY, THE EARTH DOLLAR.
• SUMMARY:
• MANY OF THE PEOPLE WHO BELONG TO THESE ORGANIZATIONS THAT HAVE AN AGENDA OF GLOBAL UNITY HAVE TIES TO THE MASONIC ORDER, THE LUCIS TRUST, AND PAGAN RELIGIONS. THESE PEOPLE ARE POWERFUL POLITICIANS AND BANKING OFFICIALS AROUND THE WORLD. MANY BELONG TO MORE THAN ONE OF THESE ORGANIZATIONS.
• SYMBOLS OF GLOBAL COMMUNITIES WITH SCRIPTURAL CONNOTATIONS:
• THE EUROPEAN UNION (EU):
• THE SYMBOL IS A WOMAN RIDING A BEAST WITH 2 HORNS (REV 17). THE SYMBOL COMES FROM AN ANCIENT GREEK MYTH OF THE WOMAN, EUROPA AND ZEUS. ZEUS WANTED TO SEDUCE EUROPA BUT SHE SHUNNED HIM. HE CHANGED HIMSELF INTO A BULL THAT BECAME HER PET. WHILE RIDING ONE DAY, HE TOOK HER ACROSS THE SEA TO CRETE AND REVEALED HIS IDENTITY TO HER AND SEDUCED HER. THIS IS THE BEGINNING OF EUROPE. THIS SYMBOL IS USED ON STAMPS AND MONEY IN THE EUROPEAN UNION.
• THE OFFICIAL POSTER FOR THE EUROPEAN UNION HAS THE TOWER OF BABEL (GEN 11). ABOVE THE TOWER ARE 12 CIRCLING STARS WHICH FORM AN UPSIDE DOWN PENTAGRAM. THE PENTAGRAM IS THE CLASSIC OCCULT SYMBOL OF SATAN…TWO HORNS AND A BEARD POINTING DOWNWARD IS THE GOAT OF MENDES, THE SYMBOL OF SATAN.
• THE OFFICIAL EUROPEAN UNION FLAG HAS A CROWN OF 12 STARS ON A BLUE BACKGROUND WITH THE MESSAGE, “MARY IS THE MISTRESS OF EUROPE”. THE CATHOLIC CHURCH CLAIMS THAT THE WOMAN WITH 12 STARS IN REV 12:1 IS MARY.
• THE UNITED NATIONS:
• IN THE UNITED NATIONS’ BUILDING, THERE IS A PROMINENT WALL-SIZED STAINED GLASS MURAL SHOWING ALL THE RELIGIONS OF THE WORLD COMING TOGETHER INTO ONE. IN THE UPPER LEFT CORNER THERE IS AN IMAGE OF JESUS, BUT IN THE CENTER IS A LARGE SERPENT.
• AS YOU WALK DOWN THE HALL TOWARD A MEDITATION ROOM, THERE IS A LARGE STONE ALTAR. IN FRONT OF THE ALTAR ARE 11 CHAIRS (DAN 7:24)…TEN NATIONAL LEADERS PLUS THE WORLD DICTATOR.
• IN FRONT OF THE U.N. BUILDING IS A RIDER ON A HORSE WITH A BOW DRAWN READY TO SHOOT. (REV 6:2). ON ONE WALL IS THE QUOTATION FROM ISA 2:4.
• WHERE IS THE POWER BASE FOR THE GLOBAL AGENDA LOCATED?
• THERE ARE THREE MAIN POWER BASES:
• =1= DEMOCRATIC EUROPEAN AND AMERICAN BANKING INTERESTS
• THEY WORK THROUGH THE EUROPEAN UNION AND THE UNITED NATIONS USING BANK LOANS TO DEVELOPING NATIONS TO CONTROL GOVERNMENTS.
• THEY WORK THROUGH THE WORLD TRADE ORGANIZATION TO CONTROL MONEY AND TRADE AROUND THE WORLD.
• THEY WORK THROUGH ENVIRONMENTAL GROUPS TO PROMOTE THE WORSHIP OF MOTHER EARTH.
• =2= THE ROMAN CATHOLIC CHURCH:
• IT IS AN ORGANIZATION WITH TREMENDOUS WEALTH AND INFLUENCE AROUND THE WORLD WORKING TOWARD AN ECUMENICAL UNION OF ALL RELIGIONS INTO ONE RELIGION.
• =3= POWERFUL WORLD POLITICAL ORGANIZATIONS MENTIONED IN THIS STUDY THAT COOPERATE ON A WORLD LEVEL TO PROMOTE THE ONE-WORLD AGENDA, INFLUENCING GOVERNMENTS AND NATIONS TO SURRENDER NATIONAL SOVEREIGNTY TO GLOBAL ORGANIZATIONS.
• APPLICATION:
• HOW SHOULD THE CHRISTIAN REACT TO THESE ORGANIZATIONS ON THE WORLD SCENE? THE CHRISTIAN MUST:
• REMEMBER THAT GOD IS IN CONTROL OF ALL WORLD EVENTS. (PSA 2)
• REMEMBER THAT BIBLE PROPHECY MUST BE FULFILLED. (MAT 5:18)
• GOD WILL PERMIT THE COORDINATION AND CONCENTRATION OF ALL OF THESE THINGS IN ORDER TO BRING THE EVIL AGENDA OF THE ANTI-CHRIST TO COMPLETION SO THAT CHRIST WILL DESTROY IT ALL AT THE EVENT OF HIS SECOND COMING.
• REMEMBER TO PRAY FOR THOSE LEADERS IN AUTHORITY OVER US. (ROM 13:1-7 1TIM 2:1-2)
