New World Order
One of my new favorite pastimes is checking out conspiracy theories and trying to approve or disapprove them... Yes, I know most of you understand that I do have strange interests. But, I happen to be a nerd, and quite proud of it, actually. I would rather expand my knowledge as opposed to just be content and blindly follow...
I am getting sidetracked....
Back to the conspiracy theories....
New World Order:
I am not going to go into all of the particulars of it, you can look it up if you are interested.... While studying it though, One thing kept jumping out at me....
Let me back up for a minute.
New World Order in a nutshell:
The theory is there are "interest" groups who are molding the world structure into one. Essentially, one currency, one Government for this planet.
Ok, back to the ONE thing that keeps running through my head as I read various articles on this. I am going to go out on a limb here and assume the majority of you are at least somewhat familiar with Biblical beliefs. If you are not, by all means go pick you up a copy and begin reading...You can never have to much knowledge!! It is better to be armed with knowledge than humiliated by ignorance.
Back on point. The Rapture theorists believe that Jesus will come and take his believers up to heaven, while Satan controls the earth, through the Anti-Christ; non-believers have the choice to choose Jesus or Satan, etc... Meanwhile, his (Jesus) followers sit up there and await the final battle for Earth. What does this have to do with New World Order??
To hear Biblical scholars tell it, New World Order is just one of the signs preceding the Rapture. In fact, if you were paying attention when the Euro came into being, Rapture talk and Books were once again preached with a fervor! The time is Nigh! Not much longer my faithful tithers!! Your patience and commitment will be rewarded!! Sorry, I shouldn't poke fun....
There are so many aspects to this theory, it is quite the interesting read.
Back to the one thought that keeps running through my head as I read through various articles....
The Main opposition of this movement is The Church.
Now, if you think about this, from this point of view, just bear with me here for a minute, Why would the church oppose such a thing? One government, one currency.
If you look at it from the best case scenario, under this, wouldn't conflicts be minimal, better global economy, starvation be non-existent, better health-care. etc??? Just a few positive factors.. In order for it to work and be successful, these are just some key issues that would have to be resolved.
So, why in the world would the church oppose this?? What is their reasoning??? Yes, I know that they have come up with the Rapture theory, that it would mark the beginning of the End Times. (remember it's easier to control people with fear!)
Here's a quick fact for you about the Rapture Theory: The Pre-Tribulation theory originated with a 15 year old Scottish girl name Margaret MacDonald in Scotland in the 1800's. She had a vision. If memory serves me correctly I believe it was around 1825-1830... I don't remember the exact date and am to lazy to look it up. Before this point, no one believed this. In fact it was such a hit that Schoefield ( I think, could have his name wrong) wrote it into the side notes in the bible that he published. It ws accepted as fact. End of Story.
Back to the Churches opposition to New World Order. If a new system, a world wide system were to come into place, how would that affect the Church? How would it hurt their finances, their current control over a majority of the political system?
It would strip away a lot of power. This is the thought that continues to run through my head as I study this. Without that power, the church is essentially nothing. Without that power, people can not be manipulated as easily. I would love to say that the motivator is money, but it's not. It is power, pure and simple....
That is it... Those are the thoughts running through my head at the moment....
There are so many more aspects that go along with this, but I have neither the time nor patience to sit down and write out my thoughts about it all.... I just found that one underlying factor to be interesting.....

I want to thank you for your truthful and interesting blog. Re your comments about the young Scottish lassie who dreamed up the pretrib view, there's a Google article titled "Pretrib Rapture Diehards" that really covers pretrib rapture history. Amazing, isn't it, that no Christian church before 1830 ever taught such an animal! B. N.
You are welcome... Thanks for sharing the article, I am looking forward to reading it!! Yes it is amazing, but not surprising...
