World government has dominated my thinking this week, and it appears that we are witnessing a big deal.

The Bible clearly teaches that the Antichrist is coming and he will rule over a world government (Dan. 7:23, 9:24-27; Matt. 24:15; II Thess. 2:3-4; Rev. 13:7-8).

Two things are required for this to happen: One, there must be a decline in nationalism or patriotism, and Two, there must be a rise in globalism or world government.

Both of these things are happening right now, and it seems significant that they are happening in the generation that has witnessed the return of the Jews to the Promised Land (Matt. 24:32-35).

Consider the following as evidence of a decline in nationalism or patriotism: efforts to ignore or discard the U.S. Constitution; demonstrators burning the U.S. flag; a strong push for open borders; the elimination of voter ID and letting illegal aliens vote (for example the Florida election); people chanting “death to America;” the growing disdain for America’s military; NFL football players taking a knee during the National Anthem; the destruction of National Monuments in the U.S.; the demonizing of “white nationalists,” “white nationalism,” etc.

The above list could be longer, but it is long enough for people to see what is taking place in America, if they want to.

There is little doubt that nationalism or patriotism is declining in America (and the same is true of the EU and other places in the world), but there is absolutely nothing wrong with being white or being a patriot.

Consider the following as evidence of a rise in globalism or world government: efforts to create a New World Order; agreements to merge nations, redistribute wealth and surrender national sovereignty; calls to strengthen the UN; formation of groups of nations such as the EU; calls for a world government by 2030; the rise of multiculturalism; the creation of world courts, a World Health Organization, a World Trade Organization, etc.; the effort to create a global ethic, etc.

The above is another list that could be longer, but it is long enough to discern that globalism or world government is rising.

The decline of nationalism and the rise of globalism are preparing the way for the Tribulation Period and the rise of the Antichrist (events that will happen after the Rapture of the Church).

On Nov. 6, 2018, Pres. Trump travelled to Chattanooga, TN to speak at a rally on behalf of Marsha Blackburn’s campaign for the U.S. Senate.

A musician named Lee Greenwood attended and sang his famous patriotic song called “God Bless The USA.”

About 10,000 people joined in to sing along with Mr. Greenwood; and while they were singing “God Bless The USA,” Pres. Trump walked up on the stage.

There were Democrats in the audience, and they started chanting “Racist country! Racist song!”

Nationalism or patriotism is on the decline in the U.S.

About the same time (I didn’t see a date on the article), it was reported that the globalists at the UN don’t like Pres. Trump’s “America First” policies.

The globalists are offended by his public criticism of their globalist agenda.

Globalism or world government is on the rise, and globalists are offended that a leader of a nation would put the welfare of his nation above their globalist agenda.

They are not alone.

In many nations, citizens are unhappy with their leaders and are demanding change.

God will grant their wishes by giving them a king (the Antichrist) that they will detest even more than the one they have.

On Nov. 3, 2018, it was reported that the UN Refugee Agency commanded Pres. Trump to let the people in the caravan that is approaching the U.S.-Mexico border into the U.S.

The article doesn’t say it, but I don’t think a UN agency can force the U.S. President to comply with their orders.

On Nov. 11, 2018, Pres. Trump was in France to observe the 100^th anniversary of the end of WW I.

French Pres. Macron called Nationalism (putting America First) treason.

He defended the UN and EU and said Patriotism (putting world government first) is the exact opposite of Nationalism.

For whatever it is worth, the patriots in the U.S. fight and die to protect the U.S., not the UN or world government.

Mr. Macron was trying to redefine patriotism, demonize Pres. Trump’s America First policy, and support the UN and the merger of nations.

The decline of nationalism or patriotism and the rise of globalism or world government are a big deal.

First, here is my illustration of what is going on at the U.S.-Mexico border:

I own my house and property, and my name is the only name on the deed.

I receive a call from someone in a foreign country that I don’t know and have never met.

The caller could need help, but I don’t know the caller; so he could also be a murderer, drug dealer, child trafficker, terrorist, have dangerous diseases or whatever.

The caller informs me that he and many other foreigners are coming to my house, and they expect me to let them in when they get there or they will break in.

I believe unknown foreigners forcefully entering my house without my permission is illegal and dangerous, but the caller says the UN has made the others and him global citizens and they have a right to go anywhere they want to go in the world.

Pres. Trump said this is not right, and he promised to stop the unknown caller and his foreign friends before they forcefully enter my house.

They say they have global human rights (world government rights) that are greater than Pres. Trump’s authority as Pres. of the U.S. and that he will have to give in.

On Nov. 1, 2018, some of the foreigners, who are not even in the U.S., filed a federal lawsuit to prevent me from keeping them out of my house.

On Nov. 2, 2018, former Pres. Obama mocked Pres. Trump for using U.S. troops to stop the foreigners and called Pres. Trump’s attempts to help me secure my house a political stunt.

This is the point: Our rights as homeowners should take precedent over the rights of people that illegally come from another nation.

Second: on Oct. 30, 2018, a friend e-mailed me an article about recent developments at Babylon.

It contains pictures of Babylon’s wall being repaired in 2012, mortar being replaced between bricks in the wall in 2013, the Lion Statue outside the wall being repaired in 2015, and sandbags being placed to prevent erosion near the wall in 2016.

Between 2009 and 2016, a Site Management Plan was completed, the site boundaries were determined, areas were identified for future excavations, areas were identified for economic enterprises, and plans were made to accommodate tourists.

In 2016, work was done to improve drainage around the Temple of Marduk; and in 2017, a weather station was established to monitor the weather and drainage conditions at the site.

In 2017, the UN was asked to designate Babylon as a World Heritage Site, and documents and work are ongoing to meet the UN requirements.

In 2017 and 2018, some low areas were filled, raised and sloped to improve drainage (because the bricks were made from mud, and standing water damages them.

Third: on Sept. 7, 2017, an 8.2 earthquake in Mexico caused a 37-mile long crack in a tectonic plate.

A scientific study found that the crack is much deeper than expected; it damaged other earthquake faults, and the tectonic plates are more brittle than thought.

Scientists were surprised by this, and they can only say that this information contradicts their computer models and they need to rethink their views on earthquakes.

Because Jesus revealed that earthquakes will increase in frequency and intensity at the end of the age, it shouldn’t surprise anyone that a very strong earthquake has happened that doesn’t fit current thinking.

Fourth: on Nov. 1, 2018, it was reported that Pres. Trump’s peace proposal is making unexpected progress behind the scenes in the Middle East.

Fifth: in Oct. 2018, atheists rented a billboard in Kansas calling for “Godless Government Now.”

Sixth: on Oct. 31, 2018, Russia warned Israel to refrain from provocative actions on Syrian territory.

This was at least the second time Russia has warned Israel, and it is a reminder that God told Russia to guard her allies in the Battle of Gog and Magog (Ezek. 36:7).

Seventh: I saw a clip on TV of Bernie Sanders saying healthcare is a human right.

It is an old story, but some prophecy teachers have long believed that if government can get control of healthcare, they will use that control to force people to take the Mark of the Beast during the Tribulation Period.

Finally, the election is over. God raises up leaders and He brings down leaders.

Our leaders don’t just impact this nation; our leaders impact the whole world.

God is all-powerful.

He has a reason for everything He does.

Good comes from everything He does, and He doesn’t make mistakes.

Rejoice, and pray for all of those in office.
