The greatest problem of this present age is war and terrorism. The biggest need of the day is peace and tranquility. In a world where kings and kingdoms have been proven to fail, communism and Marxism have been confirmed unsuccessful, democracy and democratic governments have been shown ineffective, international peace organizations and institutions have been found futile, the whole mankind will be looking for a new world order and a new world leader and Antichrist will be the only answer. Dr. Henric Spaack, an early planner of the European Common Market and formerSecretary General of NATO said in one of his speeches; We do not want another committee; what we want is a man of sufficient stature to hold the allegiance of all people, and to lift us out of the economic morass into which we are sinking. Send us such a man and be he God or devil, we will receive him. In his book, THE END OF AN AGE, H.G. Wells wrote in 1940 There will be no day of days then when a new world order comes into being. Step by step and here and there it will arrive, and even as it comes into being it will develop fresh perspectives,discover unsuspected problems and go on to new adventures. He continued; No man, no group of men will ever be singled out as its father or founder; For its maker will be not this man nor that man nor any man but Man, that being who is in some measure in every one of us. World order will be, like science, like most inventions, a social product; an innumerable number of personalities will have lived fine lives, pouring their best into the collective achievement.
Henry Kissinger in his address before the General Assembly of the United Nations said in October 1975, Mr. President, my countrys history tells us that it is possible to fashion unity while cherishing diversity that common action is possible despite the variety of races, interests, and beliefs we see here in this chamber. Progress and peace and justice are attainable. So we say to all peoples and governments: Let us fashion together a new world order.
Mikhail Gorbachev was the first world leader in the recant past to come out publicly with the idea of a new world order. In his historic address to the United Nations on December 7, 1988, the Soviet Prime Minister Mikhail Gorbachiv made a significant and prophetic statement: further global progress is now possible only through a quest for universal consensus in the movement towards a new world order.
Just before leaving for Helsinki, Finland, early in September 1990 to discuss the Persian Gulf crisis at his summit meeting with Soviet President Gorbachev, the American President George Bush expressed the hope that the foundation for a new world order would be laid in Helsinki and that it would be established under the United Nations.
At the news conference with Gorbachev following their historic meeting at Helsinki Finland, President Bush declared optimistically: If the nations of the world, acting together, continue as they have been, we will set in place the cornerstone of an international order more peaceful than any that we have known.
In a statement to the United Nations Business Council in September 1994, David Rockefeller the chairman of the Rockefeller financial services 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. But this present window of opportunity, during which a truly peaceful and interdependent world order might be built, will not be open for long. Already there are powerful forces at work that threaten to destroy all of our hopes and efforts to erect an enduring structure of global interdependence.
In his book, My Life Bill Clinton wrote We have to do nothing less than create a new world economic order and secure the place of the American people within it. We have got to pay the price today to secure tomorrow and we are all in it together.
Delivering the commencement speech at the U.S. Military Academy at West Point in May, 2010, President Obama vowed to press for a new international order that can resolve the challenges of our times. He ticked off a list of lofty goals this new order could accomplish; from combating violent extremism to stopping the spread of nuclear weapons to stemming climate change and sustaining global growth.
In reality, the idea of a new world and a new world order was not a mission of man. It was the scheme of Satan, the great defector and the deceiver. From the very beginning; before the formation of the present universe, Satans plan was to topple Gods divine plan and purpose behind the creation of the universe and His wonderful creations on it. Satans sketch always was to establish his kingdom or a new world according to his design and desire and he had been working hard for his cause even from the formation of this present world.
In the past perfect universe, more clearly, in the pre Adamic age, Satan attempted to topple All Mighty God from His throne in order to establish a New World order and a new world according to his agenda and outline. When he failed in his endeavor, he patiently waited for an opportunity to bring his dream world into a reality when and wherever possible. In the Garden of Eden, Satan came disguised as a serpent with his New World Order. God wanted the first man to know only the good side. But, Satans New World Order was a world where man would know both good and bad alike. In the Garden, God did not want man to become like Him at least for a specific period of time; until his obedience to the commandment of god is proved right. But Satans order for man was different; he wanted man to eat from the tree of knowledge and become like God with out waiting for another day.
At the time of Noah, Satans world order was a mixed generation on earth; a race mixed with angels and man, neither man nor angels. They were mighty people; giants. Satans plan was to prepare a gigantic generation who would be able to challenge God and His authority over the earth and the man. Satans new world order failed again. God destroyed the people with a great flood. Only Noah and his family survived the deluge as per Gods plan.
As about man, the idea of a new world order is not a product of this century or the previous century. Its history goes back to thousands of years. According to the Bible, Nimrod a descendant of Noah was the first man who talked about the need of a new world order and a new world according to his dreams and design. To see his dreams fulfilled, he gathered all the people of that world to a plane land called Shinar and prepared them for the building of his kingdom, an audacious new world.
The Bible says, Cush was the ather of Nimrod, who grew to be a mighty warrior on the earth. The first centers of his kingdom were Babylon, Erech, Akkad and Calneh, in Shinar. Now the whole world had one language and a common speech. As men moved eastward, they found a plain in Shinar and settled there. They said to each other, Come, lets make bricks and bake them thoroughly. They used brick instead of stone, and tar for mortar. Then they said, Come, let us build ourselves a city, with a tower that reaches to the heavens, so that we may make a name for ourselves and not be scattered over the face of the world.
Gods creation plan for man was not to settle just in one place; but to fill the whole earth. God blessed them and said to them, Be fruitful and increase in number; fill the earth and subdue it. Rule over the fish of the sea and the birds of the air and over every living creature that moves on the ground. God wanted man to take dominion over all the living creatures on earth by spreading to every nook and corner of the earth.
Nimrods new world order for the mankind was quite different than that of the Lord Almighty. His plan was to settle in one place instead of scattering all around the globe; join together as one body and one government against God. Even if God would send another flood on earth like Noahs flood, the people would not perish like before; they would overcome such a deluge by building a tower that would reach the heavens.
But, God destroyed Nimrods plan. But the LORD came down to see the city and the tower that the men were building. The LORD said, If as one people speaking the same language they have begun to do this, then nothing they plan to do will be impossible for them. Come, let us go down and confuse their language so they will not understand each other.
So the LORD scattered them from there over all the earth, and they stopped building the city. That is why it was called Babel because there the LORD confused the language of the whole world. From there the LORD scattered them over the face of the whole earth. (Genesis 11: 5-9) There came a generation that forgot the sovereign Lord totally; people groups that worshipped idols.
God could not do his plan on earth through Noah or his sons as they rebelled against God siding with Satan. As time passed, God called a man named Abraham to accomplish His plan on earth through him. He decided to raise a chosen generation for Him on earth through Abraham his trusted servant and subsequently a Savior to the world from his seed.
The LORD had said to Abram, Leave your country, your people and your fathers household and go to the land I will show you. I will make you into a great nation and I will bless you;
I will make your name great, and you will be a blessing. I will bless those who bless you, and whoever curses you I will curse; and all peoples on earth will be blessed through you. So Abram left, as the LORD had told him; and Lot went with him. Abram was seventy-five years old when he set out from Haran. (Genesis 12: 1-4)
God blessed Abraham with a son when he was hundred years old and his descendants grew as a nation in the land of Canaan. Unlike the gentiles, God wanted himself to be their sovereign ruler and king. He fought their battles and led them through mighty miracles. God wanted them to be on earth as a holy and separate nation solely for Him. But, Satan the great deceiver and defector turned them away from God. He brought in his own agenda and order and they rejected their God Jehovah.
The most loving and gracious God did not want to destroy the unfaithful and disobedient mankind from the face of the earth. When the fullness of the time was come, God sent His son, made of a woman, made under the law so that the blessings of Abraham might come on the gentiles through Christ Jesus.
The son of man promised a new world and a new world order called the kingdom of God where there would not be any disparity or discord; no sickness or sufferings; no big or no small. But those who were His own rejected Him and the Romans crucified Him. They compromised with the world and its leader Satan for a world order according to his ideology. We have no king but Caesar they affirmed.
In short, Gods plan for a new world order through the first man Adam or His pick Noah or the trusted servant Abraham did nor work out, as the man who were created in His own image disobeyed God and could not submit themselves for God to work out His plan for them and through them.
Though Satans sketch of a world owned and operated by him and his agents have failed utterly from the past perfect age until today, he has not retreated from his plan or abandoned his project. He is working tirelessly for his cause through all possible means. When one assignment fails, he will bring in another one.
A new world order is going to manifest sooner or later! Man is a imperfect being trying to manage it and is already mismanaging trying to manage it! The biggest problem of this present age is war and terrorism and the biggest need of the day is peace and tranquility and we are creating war thinking, we are creating peace! The mismanagement happens right there! War is not an answer to any world problems! The simple logic is, War creates war, anger creates anger! But 'the man' who fell out of his[God's] grace, is trying to create a new world and ends up in disparity and discord by his misconduct and mismanagement! Its high time for 'man' to turn around 360'd, to kneel down in search of his creator! Read about Dr Henric Spaack, Henry Kissinger and Mikhail Gorbachev! A new world order is going to be an imminent reality but the Creator is going prevail! Interesting and thought provoking article!!!!!
