The Road To World War III

JR Church Classic

The Road to World War III

Today, there is a chill in the air. With a weakening of the global economy, a failure of democratic reforms in Russia, and a Constitutional crisis in America, the winds of change are beginning to kick up across the global landscape. Historically, times like these have led to political miscalculations, global mistrust, and eventually, war.

Yes, there is the cold, thin scent of fear in the air. But if you want something to really be afraid about – if there is anything about the present chaotic condition of our world that should concern us, it is the possibility of power-mad terrorists and weakened political leaders creating the conditions for another world war.

A brief review of history will show that a weakened political structure, coupled with economic failure, is the most dangerous situation facing the world today. Crime across America is endemic. Drugs continue to impact our society. People are afraid to leave their doors unlocked. If you really want to be afraid, consider the following …

Our President and World Markets

President Bill Clinton, the man who occupies the most powerful political office in the world, has admitted to luring a 21-year-old woman employee into having an 18-month-long sexual affair with him. Legally, Congress is investigating the resulting cover-up. Our entire nation will feel the repercussions of his sin. On that very day, Aug. 31, individual stock investments, retirement funds and personal wealth was hammered in the worst one-day stock market point loss in history.

The continuing global economic meltdown could not come at a worse time. On that day the Dow lost 6 percent of its value in a wave of panic selling, erasing the stock market gains for 1998, a 512-point decline.

Japan’s economy, once admired and envied by the rest of the world, teeters on the brink of disaster. Hong Kong’s economy, which was turned over to China’s communist government only a few months ago, has been in free fall. All of Asia quickly moved toward full-fledged depression!

The New York Times reported, “The frenzied selling dashed the hopes of investors who had expected the market’s recent slump, which began with worries over economic conditions in Asia and accelerated as financial troubles ensnared Russia …”

The following week witnessed a stock market meltdown in Brazil. Economic uncertainty continues.

Russian Roulette

Meanwhile, Russia’s move toward democratic reforms is failing. Seventy years of failure under Communism has been followed by seven years of failure under capitalism. Bruce W. Nelan, reporter for TIME writes, “When the Soviet Union was disintegrating during the late autumn of 1991, a band of disillusioned demonstrators gathered in Red Square. Bobbing along in their midst … was a placard that read ‘70 Years on the Road to Nowhere’ … But then Russia was reborn … and set a new course toward not just reform but total transformation. And now, with the collapse of the economy and the paralysis of the government, that hopeful path has also run into a dead end” (TIME, Sept. 7, 998).

“The causes of war may be selfish, base, or even wicked, but the reasons stated are usually lofty and noble,” says World Book. Politicians may offer great speeches of patriotism for family and country, but the public will seldom be told the real causes for war.

Battle over Sodom

What is this scourge we call war? Where does it come from? Why does it occur? May I remind you, that the first war ever recorded in the Bible was fought over taxes. According to Genesis 14, the cities of Sodom and Gomorrah, which had served the kings of the Elamites for 12 years and who had paid tribute (or taxes) from the fruits of their labors, in the 13th year rebelled. In the 14th year, there came the kings of the East to make war with the kings of Sodom and Gomorrah and of the other cities that lay around the southern edge of the Dead Sea.

In those days, the region was a beautiful one. Like the Garden of Eden, Sodom and Gomorrah lay in fertile ground – lakefront property. But alas, they had no national security, and the first war ever recorded in the history of the human race was fought over that region. Chedorlaomer and the kings of the Elamites overwhelmed the Sodomites and took them captive.

When Abraham heard of it, he gathered 318 of his finest soldiers and pursued the army almost all the way to Damascus. He was able to rout out the enemy and rescue his nephew and other citizens of Sodom. Now, isn’t it amazing that the fracas turned out to be a rich man’s war and a poor man’s fight, like so many battles in history?

 

Is War Caused By Conspiracy?

Is war caused by conspiracy, or is it just an accident of history? Is man so depraved that he cannot live in peace, or is the love of money the root of that evil we call war? Many contend that there is no truth to the conspiratorial theory of history. Has there ever been a war without a conspiracy?

Americans have repeatedly asked why some of the richest people in the U.S, inside and outside the government, aligned themselves with leftist policies that would appear to be the path of their own destruction? And if there is a conspiracy at work here, why hasn’t someone exposed it?

 

Tragedy and Hope

Someone has. Dr. Carroll Quigley, a professor of history at Georgetown University, who also taught at Princeton and Harvard Universities, is the author of the textbook, Evolution of Civilization. Dr. Quigley has also been closely associated with many of the family dynasties of the super-rich. He is, by his own boast, an insider with a front-row view of the world’s money power structure.

When Dr. Quigley wrote his 1,300-page book of history titled Tragedy and Hope, it was intended for the intellectual elite. And to this select readership, he cautiously exposed one of the best-kept secrets of all time.

He said that international bankers differ from ordinary bankers. They were close to governments, fanatical devotees of the necessity of creating inflation and equally devoted to the secret use of financial influence in politics.

In a spirit of kindness, Quigley urges us not to fight a power that is already established, assuring us that we can trust these benevolent, well-meaning men. They are, he claims, the hope of the world, and resistance is a “tragedy.”

Quigley points out that, during the past 200 years, while the masses were winning their political freedom, the major banking families of the world – including Morgan and Rockefeller – were setting up dynasties of political control (behind the scenes).

These banking dynasties learned that all governments must borrow money in times of emergency and that by providing such funds from their private resources (with interest), they could bring both kings and democratic leaders under their control.

Their plan is to destroy our money through inflation, get everybody mortgaged, then one morning we will wake up to find that the bank has foreclosed on the government. The value of the dollar will be canceled, and a new money will be issued, an international money.

There is a conspiracy in this world determined to set up a one-world political and economic system through which every citizen on planet Earth will eventually become a slave. It is a very real conspiracy, and who is behind it? His name is Lucifer.

The goal is to create money out of nothing, lend it to the government, and then collect interest on it — a rather profitable transaction to say the least. International banking interests have set about to establish a one-world government and a new one-world monetary system. In these days we are seeing the fulfillment of that ancient prophecy — “the mark of the beast.”

In the United States, Quigley tells us, “The structure of financial controls created by the tycoons of ‘Big Banking and ‘Big Business’ in the period 1880-1933 was of extraordinary complexity … One, centered in New York, was headed by J. P. Morgan and Company, and the other, in Ohio, was headed by the Rockefeller family. When these two cooperated, as they generally did, they could influence the economic life of the country to a large degree and could almost control its political life, at least on the Federal level.”

In the United States, it was inevitable that international banking interests would attempt to establish the same kind of private monopoly over the money system that had been achieved in England, France, Germany, Italy, and Switzerland. The same formula would be used: Make it look like a government operation but keep the control in private hands.

Dr. Quigley revealed the goal of this operation as nothing less than to create a world system of financial control in private hands able to dominate the political system of each country and the economy of the world as a whole. World government and world economy go hand in hand. It is impossible to control one without the other. Upset the financial interests of the super-rich in a country, and they control the political power to bring about a war.

The Real Winners

When the war — any war — is over, the participants have gained nothing, but the nations are scores of billions more in debt to the International Banking Community, which may have been the reason for the war in the first place! Their plan is to destroy our money through inflation; get everybody mortgaged, then one morning we will wake up to find that the bank has foreclosed on the government. The value of the dollar will be canceled, and a new money will be issued. It will be an international money.

There is a conspiracy in this world determined to set up a one-world political and economic system through which every citizen on planet Earth will eventually become a slave. It is a very real conspiracy, and who is behind it? His name is Lucifer.

Looking for Hope?

Looking for that blessed hope, and the glorious appearing of the great God and our Saviour Jesus Christ;”

Titus 2:13

Weve often heard the reply, “Im living the blessed life,” when someone is asked how they are doing that day. Yet, all the while peoples conversations seem far from blessed. Could it be the reason we experience one thing, while we claim another, happens to be a direct result of having hope in the wrong things?

Paul told Titus there is a “blessed hope”. So, if there is a blessed hope, there must be a hope with no blessing. Maybe the reason we have no hope, while claiming the blessed life, is because we have put our hope in this life. Paul reminded the church at Corinth in 1 Corinthians 15:19, “If in this life only we have hope in Christ, we are of all men most miserable.”

True hope does not come from this life nor the things of this life. Cars, homes, banks accounts, jobs, even our days carry no hope from this life. Everything from our job to our families can change, go downhill, or be gone at a moment’s notice. It did for Job, and yet God blessed him with double.

Noah lived in a hopeless, perverse, and wicked generation. Yet among all of the chaos going on, he found hope in the eye of the God. He found grace, a way of escape while all others were drowning.

So remember, blessed hope is not measured by how much you have, the position you are in, nor in the company you keep. True blessed hope is found in Jesus. 

Our prayer for you this week:

May you come to live in the blessed hope of Jesus as you were designed to.
