Part 2 of 11: The Coming One-World Religion

Equipping God's Saints (Followers of Christ) through the Prophecies of the End Times …

Mikhail Gorbachev in his book, “Perestroika”, on page 231, was outlining what needs to happen to produce global security. He actually sent a copy of this to all of the Heads of State at the time. He said:

“We must extirpate all genocide, apartheid and religious exclusiveness.”

Let's look at this statement a minute. “Extirpate” means to “kill off”. We must kill off all genocide. That means causing mental harm.

Religious exclusiveness means you say your religion is right and all other religions are wrong. For example, Jesus said if you don't believe He is the Messiah, you will die in your sins. John 8:24 says:

“I said therefore unto you, and you shall die in your sins; for ye believe not that I am he, ye shall die in your sins.”

Jesus would be considered religiously exclusive. The Bible also tells us about Jesus that neither is there salvation in any other, for there is none other name under heaven whereby we must be saved.

That's the reason we're seeing war being waged right now around the world on using the name of Jesus. They don't mind if you pray in the name of God. They're not going to stamp out all religion. But they don't want you to use the name of Jesus. Our military has now forbade our Chaplains from praying in the name of Jesus. If you are called into a public setting to pray, they expect you to avoid the name of Jesus. They all know that Christianity is an exclusive religion. If you are a Christian and you follow the teachings of Jesus Christ, then you would be guilty of religious exclusiveness.

Gorbachev said, “We've got to stamp that out.”

He's putting that in the same category as genocide. Is there a chance that someday you or I could be put on trial for religious exclusiveness? Gorbachev says, “It's got to be extirpated.” So the answer is yes, you could be charged under the Genocide Pact for creating mental harm for a person.

What about outlawing religious exclusiveness. Is it really happening?

On June 28, 2000 in France ~ There was a Washington Times article that told about this: There was a French proposal targeting proselytizing. They were proposing up to 2 years in prison for exercising excessive pressure in an attempt to proselytize an individual.

What is “excesive pressure”? If you invite a person to your church once, is that allowable? What if you invite them twice or three times? Those envolved in it say that if you invite them once, that is alright, but if you ask them two or three times, that is excessive pressure. They are talking about a law in France of up to two years in prison for this nebulous crime of using excessive pressure in an attempt to convert them to your religion. More and more nations around the world are passing anti-proselytizing laws. Most Muslim nations have had anti-proselytizing laws for a long time.

So, the question is, Is religious exclusiveness a hate crime? We need to know that.

Let's get back to our quotes about one-world government from our Popes. We've already looked at Pope Pius XII. Next is Pope John XXIII.

Pope John XXIII became known as the beloved Pope. Everyone seemed to like him. He published an encyclical that came out in Look Magazine July 2, 1963. [An encyclical is a position paper presenting important subjects in the mind of the Pope to the world.] The encyclical was “Pacem en Terris”, which stands for “Peace in the Land” or “Peace on Earth”.

Along with its plea to the United Nations to become “more equal to the magnitude and nobility of it's task,” the Pope's encyclal made a case for “the establishment of world government with all the cogency of his theologians best proofs that God exists.”

In Vatican language, “Pacem en Terris” or “Peace in the Land” calls “world government a public authority: but defines it as having worldwide power and endowed with the proper means for the efficacious pursuit of the universal common good.” The Pope held that such a government must be founded because all nations are now interdependent.

A clarion call from Pope John XXIII way back in 1958 – 1963 for a one-world governmental System.

We are taking time here to prove that all Popes in modern time have been believers and promoters of the establishment of one-world government.

Whether you think this is a good thing or a bad thing, I just want you to understand where this powerful organization, the Roman Catholic Church, stands. Before we are finished we will show from scripture that there will be a union between politics and religion in the formation of this prophesied world governmental system. You are going to see that it's much further advanced than many of us think.

Our next Pope is Pope Paul VI. His encyclical was called “Populorium Progresso”. It was published March 26, 1967. He said, “Who can fail to see the need and importance of this gradually coming to the establishment of a world authority capable of taking effective action on the juridical and political planes? Delegates to international organizations, public officials, gentlemen of the press teachers and educators ~ all of you must realize that you have your part to play in the construction of a New World Order.”

Next was Pope John Paul I. He only lived 33 days in office and then was assassinated.

Now we come to Pope John Paul II. He was one of the most popular Popes in modern times. He called for a New World Order just like all the rest. Our quote comes from the Vatican City press January 2, 2004: “Pope John Paul II rang in the New Year on Thursday with a renewed call for peace in the Middle East and Africa and the creation of a new world order based on respect for the dignity of man and equality among nations. This year, Pope John Paul II directed his thoughts to continuing conflicts around the globe. But he stressed that to bring about peace, there needs to be a new respect for international law and the creation of a new international order based on the goals of the United Nations.”

Notice it always goes back to the United Nations because the Popes have been huge promoters of the United Nations even before it was formed.
