"These [World War II soldiers] came here to storm these beaches for one purpose only... to preserve freedom."[1] Former General Eisenhower remembering D-Day.
"We're at the beginning of a long process of breaking down the walls of national sovereignty."[2] Assistant Secretary of State William Benton, 1946.
"The future society will be a totally new civilization which will synthesize the experience of Socialism and Capitalism [the Third Way]..."[3] Mikhail Gorbachev, 1996.
"The Third Way agenda, to which Bill and Hillary Clinton have made a fundamental contribution, is the new agenda of our time."[4]
"If we are not governed by God, then we will be ruled by tyrants."[5] William Penn
What does the word "freedom" mean in the context of today's corrupt culture? Amoral license? Liberty to follow feelings rather than facts? A ban on Christian expressions of faith? Mandatory "tolerance" for homosexual lifestyles?
To conform young minds to the vision of global solidarity, pluralism must replace God's unchanging Truth. So seventh grade World History text books promote Islam and demean Christianity. Social Studies are used to "normalize homosexuality."[6] And propaganda for "social justice" seems more acceptable than loyalty to our sovereign God -- even in churches! [7] As God warned us long ago,
"...when you have eaten and are full, and have built beautiful houses and dwell in them... when your heart is lifted up and you forget the Lord your God. ... Then it shall be, if you by any means forget the Lord your God, and follow other gods... you shall surely perish." Deuteronomy 8:12-14, 17-19
But few heed such warnings in these times of cultural "Christianity." No wonder we are losing the God-given freedom that helped make America a strong and moral nation.
ROOTS OF OPPRESSION
Back in 1994, Thomas Sowell made an interesting observation:
"At the heart of the socialist vision is the notion that a compassionate society can create more humane living conditions for all through government 'planning' and control of the economy....
"The rule of law, on which freedom itself ultimately depends, is inherently incompatible with socialism. People who are free to do as they wish will not do as the economic planners wish....These differences must be ironed out by propaganda or power, if socialism is to be socialism. Indoctrination must be part of the program, not because socialists want to be brainwashers, but because socialism requires brainwashing.
"Idealist socialists create systems in which idealists are almost certain to lose and be superseded by those whose drive for power, and ruthlessness in achieving it, make them the 'fittest' to survive under a system where government power is the ultimate prize."[8]
That's what happened during the Russian revolution in 1917! Lenin, a communist organizer who tolerated no competition, soon crushed his idealistic co-revolutionaries who believed communism would bring peace and equality -- not slaughter and tyranny.
Funded by powerful British and American global-minded financiers, the communist Bolsheviks were paid well for their useful "experiment" in totalitarianism. And their wealthy sponsors were equally satisfied. On March 24, 1917, the New York Times printed a telegram from banker Jacob Schiff (33rd degree Mason) describing the murderous Russian Revolution as "what we had hoped and striven for these long years."[9]
"...it is estimated," wrote the New York Journal, "even by Jacob's grandson, John Schiff, a prominent member of New York Society, that the old man sank about $20,000,000 for the final triumph of Bolshevism in Russia. Other New York banking firms also contributed."[10]
Why? Why would wealthy Western elites support brutal tyranny? What force was driving such brutality?
The Bible can answer that question. It tells us that, "...the whole world is under the sway of the evil one." 1 John 5:19
"For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this age, against spiritual hosts of wickedness.... Therefore take up the whole armor of God, that you may be able to withstand..." Ephesians 6:10-14
STEPPING STONES TO GLOBAL CONTROL
Other examples of unthinkable ruthlessness followed. Whether American or British, many political and financial members of the Cecil Rhodes' "Secret Society" ("The Group") were counting on America's willingness to participate in the planned World War 1.
Powerful "Group" members such as Lord Esher (British founding member of the "Secret Society" and a close friend of the royal family) shared in a plot to use American soldiers to create the crisis needed to establish British-American unity of purpose. On August 3, 1917, Lord Esher wrote in his personal journal,
"No American is likely to be killed before November. This is unfortunate, as [President] Wilson may require to be steadied [gain public support] before then, and only the death of young Americans can ensure him stability."[11]
Eight days later, Lord Esher again stressed the need for a tragic crisis that would draw the American people emotionally into the battle. Ponder this next journal entry:
"Mr. Henry Morgenthau [a founding member of the Council on Foreign Relations (CFR) and a 33rd degree Mason]...was one of the principal supporters of President Wilson....[He possesses] the confidence of the president. They are ready to sacrifice the lives of American citizens....
"Mr. Morgenthau realizes the importance...of cementing the Alliance by shedding American blood at the earliest possible moment. If many lives have to be sacrificed, the influence upon the American people can only be beneficent."[11]
Such plots darkened the history of World War II as well. The fact is, coldhearted human nature played its part on both sides of the war. While "the Group" and its branches (including CFR) seemed far more civil than Hitler's hordes, both sides were quite willing to sacrifice lives for their global ambitions.
In The Globalist, Dr. Cuddy gives us a glimpse of the build-up to the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor:
"Actually, a plan had been developed as early as October 7, 1940, to cause Japan to attack the U.S. The plan was written by Lieutenant Commander Arthur H. McCollum, head of the Far East desk of the Office of Naval Intelligence. ...[H]e states: 'If by these means Japan could be led to commit an overt act of war, so much the better.'"[11]
This was not simply a war to save Europe from Nazi tyranny. More important to greedy "power elites" was their plan to persuade the masses to accept a "peaceful" world government. To gain support for this vision, they must make war look horrific indeed. As Dr. Cuddy wrote,
"President Roosevelt then followed McCollum's Action F, keeping the U.S. fleet in Hawaiian waters....[T]he fleet's commander, Admiral James Richardson, objected to the president about this. On February 1, 1941, Admiral Richardson was relieved of his command. The fleet was deliberately left in harm's way, and Joseph J. Rochefort will later say that the attack upon Pearl Harbor 'was a pretty cheap price to pay for unifying the country.'"[12]
REVOLUTIONARY GOALS
By the end of April 1945, Hitler had lost the war. Months earlier, communist Alger Hiss had served as President Roosevelt's adviser at the Yalta Conference, where Roosevelt, Churchill and Stalin consigned most of Eastern Europe to Stalin's deadly realm.
As UN Secretary General, Hiss convened the First UN Conference in San Francisco in June, 1945. The UN Charter, co-authored by Hiss, was signed by representatives from 50 nations on June 26. The new global era had begun!
Julian Huxley, the first Director-General of UNESCO, despised Christianity. In his book UNESCO: Its purpose and Its Philosophy, this powerful Fabian socialist wrote,
"The task before UNESCO... is to help the emergence of a single world culture....This is opportune, since this the first time in history that the scaffolding and the mechanisms for world unification have become available.... And it is necessary, for at the moment, two opposing philosophies of life confront each other from the West and from the East....
"You may categorize the two philosophies as...individualism versus collectivism...or as capitalism versus communism, or as Christianity versus Marxism. Can these opposites be reconciled, this antithesis be resolved in a higher synthesis? I believe...it must happen.... If we are to achieve progress, we must learn to uncrystalize our dogmas."[13]
Through the rest of the 19th century, most American remained loyal to our God and nation. But behind the scenes, the transformation continued. To prepare Americans to recognize and resist communism back in 1963, the House of Representatives included a long list of Communist Goals in the Appendix of the Congressional Record. Here are just a few. Notice how they match the current changes. Most fit the Islamic agenda as well:
Get control of the schools. Use them as transmission belts for socialism and propaganda.
Use student riots to foment public protests...
Discredit the family as an institution. Encourage promiscuity...and easy divorce.
Emphasize the need to raise children away from the negative influence of parents....
Infiltrate the press....
Break down cultural standards of morality by promoting pornography and obscenity...
Infiltrate the churches and replace revealed religion with "social" religion. Discredit the Bible...
Eliminate prayer or any phase of religious [referring to Christianity] expression in the schools...
Discredit the American Constitution by calling it inadequate, old-fashioned, out of step with modern needs...
Support any socialist movement to give centralized control over...education, social agencies...mental health clinics, etc.[14]
Remember, this is spiritual warfare! Look around, and you will see countless signs that our treasured heritage of faith and freedom is being replaced by these repressive options: Global Socialism, Communism, Communitarianism (a blend of communism and capitalism) and/or Islam. All share a common hatred for God, His Word and His moral guidelines!
Considering the unseen forces that drive the world system, today's sinister plots shouldn't surprise us. For example, many leaders have called for drastic reductions of the world's population. Back in 1995, New Age author Dr. Sam Keen, a plenary speaker at Gorbachev's 1995 State of the World Conference said:
"Cut the population by 90 percent and there aren't enough people left to do a great deal of ecological damage."[15]
The applause was deafening! I was there, watching the madness with amazement.
Kill billions of people? How? What happened to love, compassion, and concern for the poor? Our globalist leaders call for poverty programs, gun control, and financial redistribution as if they wanted to save lives. Are these schemes simply stepping stones toward mind-changing control?
In the Soviet Union that America helped create, ordinary individuals became worthless in the impersonal context of collectivism. The promise of "common good" meant little more than such upside-down Orwellian assurances as "Ignorance is
STRENGTH."
To build this new world, the "power elite" need one crisis after another. As David Rockefeller said:
"We are on the verge of a global transformation. All we need is the right major crisis...and the nations will accept the New World Order.."[16]
Pointing to the current financial chaos, our friend Carl Teichrib wrote,
"Watching the markets... two interlocking phrases immediately come to mind: Ordo ab Chaos, and Crisis Equals Opportunity. Ordo ab Chao is a Latin phrase and the motto of the Thirty-Third Degree of Freemasonry. It means, 'Order out of Chaos.'"[17]
Whether the chaos ahead will be real or conjured, they may well be used to push the masses toward global tyranny. The planned solidarity will be cleansed of divisive truths from the Bible. Those who refuse to comply will face painful consequences.

Might the spread of Islam be used for similar purposes? A few more wars and revolutions -- unencumbered by Christian moral restraints -- would help our globalist leaders solve the so-called population crisis. It would also show that apart from God's love and moral guidelines, humanity will simply revert to the savage cruelty and barbarian decadence of previous civilizations.
But if we belong to Him, then--
"Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? Shall tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or sword? ...Yet in all these things we are more than conquerors through Him who loved us." (Romans 8:35, 37) So-
