| Disguised as wishing to promote faster economic growth and the need for greater population growth, the elites have been encouraging massive immigration into the First World since the 1960s and especially the last ten or so years. Today the world is being coerced into “globalisation” –– an attempt to weld the world into a single philosophy, single world economic and trading structure and consequent mass immigration to forge one world people and one world religion of sorts. They know that this will all take a very long time to achieve, but the pace is quickening. This is the world babies are being born into and the youth are growing up in. They are becoming used to this being promulgated in the media and education system which is becoming the “norm” for them. Yet many within the Churches have decided to go silent about this globalisation issue and to permit the world’s media, the educational institutions and one’s peers to influence them without any counter education within the Churches. In other words, society –– this evil world that the Bible warns against –– has been permitted to infiltrate the Church’s hearts and minds and bend many within it toward its will. Whether it be Critical Race Theory, changing of place names to ethnic names, distorting news or attempting to insert guilt into Western minds, replacing Western art with contemporary art, the pulling down of beautiful historical buildings, the elites continue to use any means possible in their relentless pursuit at forging one world –– a brotherhood of man under world governance. A melting pot of peoples. Modern Woke Ideology Since the 1960s, students have been singing “Hey hey, ho ho, Western man has gotta go.” Who taught them that? And why? All of this can be traced back to universities which have long been under the sway of the neo-Marxists professors and lecturers. This ideology can be likened to squeezing us all into a single box, quashing us down into the ultimate soup, making us all in common. To them, the differences between the nations, male and female, young and old, rich and poor, must be reduced and if possible, eliminated to produce a better world with everyone the same and equal. But this is completely irrational and unnatural. For centuries, there are those that have advocated the inter-mixing of all the nations and peoples into one. Those ideas became much more popular and gained traction under Soviet leader Lenin’s influence and that of the Fabian Socialists. Following on from this, the philosophies of “internationalism” slowly gained ground within the United Nations, infecting Western nations and their leaders. Western leaders have been much influenced by all of this. Western leaders have been much influenced by all of this, such as John F. Kennedy (JFK), Ted Kennedy, Martin Luther King and others who advocate the merging of peoples into one. With the collapse of Communism (admittedly, it veered from some of its original concepts over time and became more of a mix of nationalism and socialism, plus some local ideas, rather than full-blown Leninism), globalisation has emerged as the next threat to mankind’s diversity. JFK wanted to amend American immigration legislation to permit vast amounts of migrants into the USA (he even wrote a work, A Nation of Immigrants, advocating this). He believed in social liberalism and was an avid internationalist. Although he failed in his attempt to get his immigration legislation through, President Lyndon Johnson, together with Ted Kennedy, managed to deceive Congress and the bill was passed in 1964. JFK nominated two liberals to the Supreme Court and other institutions began to become more liberal and internationalist under him, which laid the foundation for the massive student uprisings in 1967-69. The rest is history. The theme songs of the 1960s uprisings and the consequent generation of globalists were “Imagine” by John Lennon and “Melting Pot” by Blue Mink. You can find these on the internet. Have a careful listen to what they are promoting. One does not have to be a full-blown Marxist to have absorbed some of their social and globalist tenets. Political Correctness is the ongoing phase of the neo-Marxists to so transform the West to the point that it is being taken over by slow moving Communism. Their woke ideology is merely the next phase in Political Correctness –– it is not something new or different. In many ways globalisation is a greater threat to the West than the Soviets or Islamo-fascism. For we could identify the external Communist threat –– but with globalisation the enemy slyly and insidiously operates from within and is now using Western institutions to push the world toward globalisation when these institutions were originally set up to promote Western values, the rule of law and to stabilise the world after World War 2. It is a toxic mix of internationalism, corporatism, humanism and social Leninism (feminism, mixing of peoples, end of the natural family unit, euthanasia, abortion, homosexual marriages, androgyny etc). Original Communism Most Marxist-Leninists or Fabian Society leaders would agree with global capitalism on various points such as immigration, feminism and the trampling on old values –– money making is elevated to be more important than family, values, nationhood, religion and such like –– thus globalism is not a conservative philosophy at all. In any event, most Fabians and socialists today have eschewed the nationalizing of industry in favor of a global market with the free flow of people, religions, capital, ideas and so forth to mix the world into one people –– One World under the United Nations. They believe that this will lead to a higher global GDP, prosperity, and therefore happiness for mankind. Their view is that mankind will not be happy and prosperous until we are all “freed” from marriage, family, nations and races –– that we all become an individual in a globalized world who can do anything so long as we (supposedly) do no harm to others (i.e. humanism). Notice what Karl Marx and Lenin taught: “Even the natural differences within the species, like racial differences … must be done away with historically.” (Karl Marx quoted in Marx & Engels: Selected Works, V, p. 403 cited in Solomon Bloom: The World of Nations: A Study of the National Implications in the Works of Karl Marx, pp. 14-15) [emphasis mine] “Socialism … is promoting and greatly accelerating the drawing together and fusion of the nations.” (Vladimir Lenin, “Theses on the National Question”, in Lenin: Collected Works, XIX, pp. 246-47) [emphasis mine] Frederick Engels of course agreed: “The nationalities of the peoples associating themselves in accordance with the principle of community will be compelled to mingle with each other as a result of this association and thereby to dissolve themselves, just as the various estate and class distinctions must disappear through the abolition of their basis, private property.” (The Principles of Communism, 1847) [emphasis mine] However, forms of nationalism began to appear within sections of Communism in the 1930-40s and became a paramount feature of post-World War 2 Communism –– this does not represent the original and true Communism. Some Communists such as Nikita Khrushchev (Soviet Union leader, 1953-64) seemed to still believe in the original Marxist-Leninist view of mixing the world into one race of mankind: “Full-scale communist construction constitutes a new stage in the development of national relations in the USSR, in which the nations will draw still closer together until full unity is achieved.” (Kenneth Farmer, Ukrainian Nationalism in the Post-Stalin Era, p. 51) [emphasis mine] Also, “The equality of races and nations is one of the most important elements of the moral strength and might of the Soviet state. Soviet anthropology develops the one correct concept, that all the races of mankind are biologically equal. The genuinely materialist conception of the origin of man and of races serves the struggle against racism, against all idealist, mystic conceptions of man, his past, present and future.” (Mikhail Nesturkh (Soviet anthropologist), The Origin of Man, p. 327) God’s Solutions to Man’s Mess Globalization is leading to the intertwining of the world into one. This is very much what the Fabians and Leninists teach and most of them applaud globalization because of this. While others of that ilk applaud the merging of the world, they are opposed to its capitalist leadership. President Biden, for example, has opened the borders and Europe has done virtually the same. Meanwhile governments in Canada, the United Kingdom and Australia have encouraged mammoth immigration to create, as they all say, “big countries” which means, massively populated. But why? Contrary to globalism, Leninism, internationalism, Fabian socialism and any other “ism” (including Satanism, Taoism and such like) that advocate the merging of the world into one people, God’s Word is utterly different: “When the Most High divided to the nations their inheritance, when He separated the sons of Adam, He set the bounds of the people according to … the children of Israel” (Deuteronomy 32:8). “God that made the world and all things therein … hath made of one blood [“blood” is not in the original] all nations of men for to dwell on all the face of the earth, and hath determined the times before appointed, and the boundaries of their habitation” (Acts 17:26). God is interested in a variety of peoples residing on this earth: There are many Scriptures extolling the virtue of borders and walls between God’s people and others. For example: Gen. 23:17; 47:21; Ex. 16:35; 34:24; Num. 20:17; 21:22; 35:27; Josh. 11:2; 13:2; II Kings 18:8; I Chron. 5:16; 7:29; Ps. 147:14; Prov. 2:28; Isa. 15:8; 60:18; Jer. 15:13; Mic. 5:6; Matt. 4:13, etc. See also Ex. 23:30 and Zech. 4:10. “He built fortified cities in Judah, for the land had rest. He had no war in those years, for the LORD gave him peace. “And he said to Judah, ‘Let us build these cities and surround them with walls and towers, gates and bars. The land is still ours, because we have sought the LORD our God. We have sought him, and he has given us peace on every side.’ So they built and prospered” (II Chron. 14:6-7). “The nations of them which are saved shall walk in the light of it (the new Jerusalem): and the kings of the earth bring the glory … of the nations into it” (Revelation 21:24-26). [There will be diverse spirit nations even in God’s eternal Kingdom.] So, from the above we can see that God’s Word promotes human diversity, which is guarded by borders –– for borders are essential to protect one’s national identity, unity and thus human physical and cultural diversity. But today’s Christianity has so absorbed the pressures from universities, the media and social Marxism, that it has largely become politically correct/woke while not even realising it. This goes for both the older generation (generally in denial of this) and especially the younger generation. For the latter grew up within today’s Left-Liberal cultural environment and are not aware of what is happening to them –– that they are being absorbed into it. In other words, they have been taken over by the world in many respects. The process of separating out the nations to preserve their distinctiveness actually commences during the Day of the Lord, leading into the final intervention and world domination by the Messiah where His system will be fulfilled and finalised: “I will make a man more precious than fine gold; even a man than the golden wedge of Ophir. “Therefore I will shake the heavens, and the earth shall remove out of her place, in the wrath of the LORD of hosts, and in the day of his fierce anger. “And it shall be as the chased roe, and as a sheep that no man taketh up: they shall every man turn to his own people and flee every one into his own land” (Isa. 13:12-14). “He made many to fall, yea, one fell upon another: and they said, Arise, and let us go again to our own people, and to the land of our nativity, from the oppressing sword” (Jer. 46:16). “Cut off the sower from Babylon, and him that handleth the sickle in the time of harvest: for fear of the oppressing sword they shall turn every one to his people, and they shall flee every one to his own land” (Jer. 50:16). “We would have healed Babylon, but she is not healed: forsake her, and let us go every one into his own country: for her judgment reacheth unto heaven, and is lifted up even to the skies” (Jer. 51:9). It is abundantly obvious: God has developed the nations for His purpose and glory. Therefore, He is the author of national consciousness/nativism and subsequently all nations and peoples have a right to national independence and self-determination within the bounds of His Laws and Ways. Isn’t that pure common sense? If He, in the Bible, as listed in Genesis 10 and the dozens of oracles against specific, named nations shows us that there are different nations due to His will, then He is the author of true nationhood or nationalism (i.e. patriotism or national pride). He is not a globalist or Marxist but the opposite –– the originator and protector of nations and nationhood. Rather, it is Satan and his agents who wish to obliterate the nations and their differences. Therefore, upon study of the concept of nations, how they are formed, their purposes and the part they play in prophecy, we must conduct a comprehensive Biblical study. This is how one might determine God’s position on the subject –– there is simply no other way of doing so. Reliance on this world’s educational system and media to come to a determination on how the world works or should work ethnically, is not a wise choice. After all, the philosophy espoused by the world is not of God. To help those struggling with the concept, I recommend a read of Yoram Hazony’s The Virtue of Nationalism, Basic Books, New York, NY 2018. His is a voice of reason in a world of chaotic, Babylonian chatter and educational disinformation. Hazony wrote: “… the presence of the Bible at the heart of this [Western] civilization has ensured that the idea of the self-determining, independent nation would be revived time and again.” (p. 17) “Christianity had the Hebrew Bible, with its vision of the justice of a world of independent nations. This vision never ceased to cause trouble for the idea of a universal Catholic empire, even if many Christian thinkers were hesitant to embrace the Old Testament too closely … The Scottish national covenants … modelled on the Jewish [i.e., Israel’s] national covenants of the Bible, were similarly motivated. The self-image of these Protestant peoples as rightfully independent in the face of imperial opposition was often explicitly modelled on biblical Israel’s effort to wrest its national and religious freedom from the dictates of Egyptian and Babylonian universal empire.” (pp. 22-23) Contrast this world’s efforts at a neo-Marxist Utopia to the coming Messiah’s: while He will have a global government, all the nations and peoples will maintain their identities, forming a multi-cultural world instead of the mono-cultural melting pot that the globalists are striving for. ——————————————————————————————————— See Craig White’s other articles at: White, Craig M. – Church of God, Bismarck (church-of-god-bismarck.org) Reprinted with permission from: Friends of the Sabbath Australia http://www.friendsofsabbath.org/ Originally published by 21stcenturywatch.com ——————————————————————————————————— |
