A Call To Globalization

Fundamentally, it’s not complicated. Unless we should finally take certain tangible steps to implement a genuinely organic and cooperative planetary civilization – one based on the primary truth of human “oneness” – there will be no civilization at all. To credibly reject this sober conclusion would require reasonable expectations of an already-ongoing evolution toward worldwide peace and denuclearization.

[ … ]

Antecedent questions should now be brought to the fore. Why have we made ourselves existentially vulnerable? The only genuinely compelling and lucid answer should reflect a continuously undiminished willingness to seek personal identity in membership. Significantly, though rarely if ever mentioned, we humans fear solitude or “aloneness” more than absolutely anything else on earth, sometimes even more than death. Accordingly, amid a growing chaos that is already stampeding across whole continents, we humans willingly abide a fully primal loyalty to membership claims of  “tribe.”

Always, everywhere, individuals desperate “to belong” will enthusiastically subordinate themselves to the most utterly far-reaching expectations of nation, class or faith.

[ … ]

In the end, such twisted dedication lies at the very heart of war, terrorism and genocide.

[ … ]

There absolutely must be a firmer and more willing embrace of global interdependence and human “oneness.”

[ … ]

Like it or not, the American “bee” – together with all others – must learn to live cooperatively, within the “hive.” To ritualistically suggest otherwise, as does US President Donald Trump, would be nothing less than to willfully surrender all residual human advantages of intellect, analysis and reason. Following any such still-preventable surrender, America and all other state members of our integrated global system will have done nothing less than reinvigorate the dissembling forces of an uncontrollable “tribal” chaos.

So, jettison your nation, tribe and faith, embrace “oneness,” prepare for globalization, and denuclearize.

So says this writer at SWJ.

This is a remarkable missive.  Obama also called for a world without nuclear weapons, and made a promise to that effect.  Trust everyone else to denuclearize, and lead the way, they say, advocating relinquishing the most significant contribution to world peace history has ever known.

Globalization is the only solution to tribe, nation and faith.  Because those are problems, you see.  We are all one with our brothers everywhere.

Sounds like the words of Jesus, yes?  Or not so much.  These are only the words of a fake Jesus that didn’t really exist.  The real Jesus said of His enemies that “You are of your father the devil,” who was a liar from the beginning (John 8:44).  Apparently God doesn’t believe everyone is “one” with everyone else.

Jettison faith and embrace globalization.  These are not the words of Jesus.  George Soros may like the message, but then George Soros admitted to helping the Nazis.

    This has been promoted a long time. Just look at what became our policy under JFK, with State Dept. Document 7277. https://federalexpression.files.wordpress.com/2014/01/freedom-from-war-state-dept-pub-7277.pdf

    Yea. That oneness thing is not working out anywhere it is tried, especially post modern America.

    The tribe longs for One World Government. Whether that is “civilization” is open for discussion. But not with them. They long for the good old days of their Messiahs – Lenin and Stalin.

    Let’s see: we have Japan for the Japanese, China for the Chinese, Israel for the Jews, &TC. I have no problem with this. However, the globalists have declared that the wealthy, successful English speaking countries USofA, Great Britain, Australia, Canada and New Zealand must open their borders to the whole world and Whitey must work his butt off and provide free everything to our new colonizers. I don’t think so! Our Masters of the Universe know that Dieversity leads to the destruction of nations and this is exactly what they want. The mask is off and the curtain has been pulled back. They also know that we must be disarmed and this will be their primary objective going forth.

    “Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, which according to his abundant mercy hath begotten us again unto a lively hope by the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead, To an inheritance incorruptible, and undefiled, and that fadeth not away, reserved in heaven for you, Who are kept by the power of God through faith unto salvation ready to be revealed in the last time. Wherein ye greatly rejoice, though now for a season, if need be, ye are in heaviness through manifold temptations: That the trial of your faith, being much more precious than of gold that perisheth, though it be tried with fire, might be found unto praise and honour and glory at the appearing of Jesus Christ: Whom having not seen, ye love; in whom, though now ye see him not, yet believing, ye rejoice with joy unspeakable and full of glory: Receiving the end of your faith, even the salvation of your souls. Of which salvation the prophets have enquired and searched diligently, who prophesied of the grace that should come unto you: Searching what, or what manner of time the Spirit of Christ which was in them did signify, when it testified beforehand the sufferings of Christ, and the glory that should follow. Unto whom it was revealed, that not unto themselves, but unto us they did minister the things, which are now reported unto you by them that have preached the gospel unto you with the Holy Ghost sent down from heaven; which things the angels desire to look into. Wherefore gird up the loins of your mind, be sober, and hope to the end for the grace that is to be brought unto you at the revelation of Jesus Christ; As obedient children, not fashioning yourselves according to the former lusts in your ignorance: But as he which hath called you is holy, so be ye holy in all manner of conversation; Because it is written, Be ye holy; for I am holy. And if ye call on the Father, who without respect of persons judgeth according to every man’s work, pass the time of your sojourning here in fear: Forasmuch as ye know that ye were not redeemed with corruptible things, as silver and gold, from your vain conversation received by tradition from your fathers; But with the precious blood of Christ, as of a lamb without blemish and without spot: Who verily was foreordained before the foundation of the world, but was manifest in these last times for you, Who by him do believe in God, that raised him up from the dead, and gave him glory; that your faith and hope might be in God. Seeing ye have purified your souls in obeying the truth through the Spirit unto unfeigned love of the brethren, see that ye love one another with a pure heart fervently: Being born again, not of corruptible seed, but of incorruptible, by the word of God, which liveth and abideth for ever. For all flesh is as grass, and all the glory of man as the flower of grass. The grass withereth, and the flower thereof falleth away: But the word of the Lord endureth for ever. And this is the word which by the gospel is preached unto you.”

    This is what being sober is: “Wherefore gird up the loins of your mind, be sober, and hope to the end for the grace that is to be brought unto you at the revelation of Jesus Christ;”

    I’m to abandon this, my God? Even if I could, God forbid it, to reject being born again and made a Son of God, to become an animal, a bee in a hive? No!

    This is oneness: Christ in me, I in Christ, the Father and Christ are one, the Holy Spirit indwells me, I am the temple of the Holy Spirit. Throw this away? Even if I could, the answer is No!

    There is no evolution, the planet has been devolving, dying, since the days when Adam broke his covenant. The scientists know this, by the way. There is a King, an High Priest, that Profit, a Saviour, this Prince of Peace, the glorified, resurrected Son of God Christ Jesus who died once for all, that you might have peace, as there is no peace in any other, as much as the devils at SWJ might temp us there is only one peace bringer, He calls himself; I AM.

    Oh, but when He makes war, well, that’s a topic for another day. May the LORD find you born again this day, working in His kingdom. Be ye sober!

    Jesus also warned us that until he came again there would always be wars.
    Beating our swords into plowshares is not a good idea unless being conquered
    and enslaved or murdered becomes somehow appealing.
    But heck, with the Lefties who knows. Look at Europe now that the invited,
    invading army of young moslem men are terrorizing and taking things over.

    jmho, but I believe the oligarchs of our age and their methods of operation are being addressed here (along with some words of encouragement for Believers):

    James 5:1 Go to now, ye rich men, weep and howl for your miseries that shall come upon you.

    2 Your riches are corrupted, and your garments are motheaten.

    3 Your gold and silver is cankered; and the rust of them shall be a witness against you, and shall eat your flesh as it were fire. Ye have heaped treasure together for the last days.

    4 Behold, the hire of the labourers who have reaped down your fields, which is of you kept back by fraud, crieth: and the cries of them which have reaped are entered into the ears of the Lord of sabaoth.

    5 Ye have lived in pleasure on the earth, and been wanton; ye have nourished your hearts, as in a day of slaughter.

    6 Ye have condemned and killed the just; and he doth not resist you.

    7 Be patient therefore, brethren, unto the coming of the Lord. Behold, the husbandman waiteth for the precious fruit of the earth, and hath long patience for it, until he receive the early and latter rain.

    8 Be ye also patient; stablish your hearts: for the coming of the Lord draweth nigh.

    Regional and then global governance require the death of nation states. Perhaps the populist movements spanning the globe are an innate and instinctual reaction to the ominous world satan’s children desire to thrust on us.

    Recall also that YHWH’s response to the Kingdom treason that occurred at the Tower of Babel was as anti-globalist as it gets.

    It is not just nation states and peoples these folks are waging war against. It is the Lord and His Christ whom they hate.

    And ultimately, the battle His.

    Meaning those that belong to Him must seek their place in His Kingdom to properly align for the conflict. The battle is both spiritual and physical in nature.

    For as many of you have been baptized into Christ have put on Christ. There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither bond nor free, there is neither male nor female: for ye are all one in Christ Jesus. Gal 3: 27,28. We have oneness now. They are fools. We have nothing to fear.

    SWJ (sort of SJW but sideways)is almost exclusively populated by government supremacist COINdinistas who haven’t the moral nor martial imagination to think outside the western box of failed COIN since the end of the War to Save Josef Stalin.

    Using unnecessarily large words in complex sentences is a sure sign that the content is lacking. They hide the lack of information with big word and hope you don’t notice their premise is BS.

    Globalization is apparently coming to a major religion near you. The following is taken from “The Jesuit Review,” 4 February 2019, story by Gerard O’Connell.
    Title: “Pope Francis to world’s religious leaders: We build the future together or there will be no future”

    “There is no alternative: We either build the future together or there will not be a future,” Pope Francis said frankly in an important keynote address to participants at the high-level inter-religious meeting in Abu Dhabi on Feb. 4.

    “Religions, in particular, cannot renounce the urgent task of building bridges between peoples and cultures,” he told the 700 representatives of Islam, Christianity, Judaism and other religions at an open-air gathering at the memorial to the founding father of the United Arab Emirates.

    “The time has come when religions should more actively exert themselves, with courage and audacity and without pretense, to help the human family deepen the capacity for reconciliation, the vision of hope and the concrete paths of peace,” Pope Francis said.

    Pope Francis and Ahmed el-Tayeb, the grand imam of Egypt’s Al-Azhar, the highest seat of learning in Sunni Islam, put those words into action, using the opportunity of the pope’s historic visit to sign a statement expressing their hopes for world peace and human understanding.

    I am no expert, but it looks as if Pope Francis just surrendered his church to the Muslims. So-called “Interfaith Gatherings”of this sort have been notorious venues in which Muslims can show control over dhimmis* such as the current pontiff. The last gathering of this sort, held at the Vatican, featured Francis mouthing the usual platitudes, but the visiting imam – who gave his address in Arabic – used the occasion to proclaim the superiority of Islam.

    * – A dhimmi is one who supplicates himself before Islam or Muslims. Dhimmitude is the state of subservience non-Muslims must live under while in Islamic societies.
