7. Foundations of Globalization - Hal Meyer

“The promise of peace and security has been often repeated by advocates of the “New World Order.” This term was frequently used in the literature in the wake of World War I and II, when the “Old Order” based on the idea of national sovereignty was increasingly criticized and rejected by globalists in favor of an international order that was supposed to establish a just and lasting peace among the nations. Numerous intellectuals, politicians, and religious leaders have advocated the idea of world government in subsequent decades. Throughout the twentieth century the threat of war has been used as an argument for international cooperation. World War I led to the creation of the League of Nations; World War II led to the creation of the United Nations. The attentive reader will have noticed that the UN and the papacy are already discussing their “common future.” This need not surprise us however, for Revelation 13 & 17 predict the rise of a world government under papal auspices. Will this unlawful unity of church and state result in world peace and social justice? Not according to the Scriptures. A just and lasting peace can only be established on the foundation of righteousness. Without this foundation, the destruction prophesied in Revelation 18 must inevitably follow. “Babylon the great is fallen, is fallen… Come out of her my people.” Only the house that is built on the Rock will survive the coming storm. “For when they shall say, Peace and safety; then sudden destruction cometh upon them, as travail upon a woman with child; and they shall not escape.” (1 Thess. 5:3).“
