At this current time, there are many people who are turning
against Christianity. Others embrace false religions or have
no religion at all. Deceiving these people into believing
such a lie might not be all that difficult. Allow me to also
remind you that Israel, where Armageddon will be fought, is
one of the UFO hot spots in the world today. Is this merely
a coincidence? So as I said, it may very well be that Satan
will be able to convince his armies to fight against Christ,
simply by deceiving them into believing that the Armies of
Heaven are a hostile alien invasion force from Outer Space.

As we discussed earlier, a lot of people, both Christians and
non-Christians alike, have become convinced that we are now
witnessing the birth of a powerful global government which is
commonly referred to as the New World Order, or the One World
Government, or simply Big Brother. At the apex of this coming
government will emerge a powerful leader who some Christians
refer to as the Beast, or the Antichrist. The consensus is
that sometime in the not-too-distant future, this government
will indeed rule the world with an iron fist, such as we have
never experienced before, and there won't be any place in it
for belief in God. Even if you aren't a student of the Bible,
and don't accept its prophecies as being true, the current
political drive to create a globalized society should be more
than sufficient evidence to convince you that it is indeed a
reality which we will all ultimately have to face.

Where some of us writers disagree, is in exactly who is going
to lead this coming government, and under what circumstances
it will rise to power. Some people believe that the New World
Order will be spearheaded by the United States of America. In
contrast, others point to the United Nations, or perhaps even
the European Union as a type of resurrected "Roman Empire". A
confederacy comprised of Russia and a host of Arab states has
also been proposed by a number of writers, such as myself.

At this point, perhaps we should be asking ourselves exactly
who are the crafty manipulators who are instigating this plot
for world domination? According to some conspiracy theorists,
these organizations are identified as the IMF, (International
Monetary Fund), the WTO, (World Trade Organization), the World
Bank, the Trilateral Commission, the CFR, (Council On Foreign
Relations), the United Nations, the Rockefellers, the Skull
and Bones Society, the Bilderberger Group, the Freemasons, the
Illuminati and other secret societies which are said to be at
the helm of world business transactions.

Allow me to reiterate again, that whether or not any of these
things are true, I honestly do not know. As I've said before,
the Internet has become such a rumor mill, that at times, it
can be difficult to determine what is true. It is for this
very reason, that I personally take it with a large grain of
salt, and a healthy dose of skepticism, and try to be led by
God's Spirit in my understanding. I would rather teach what I
know; that is, the Bible, and leave the more questionable
conspiracy theories to others. Yet, at the same time, I also
realize that if my readers are avid Internet surfers, they
will come across some of this material sooner or later; so, I
might as well let you know what is out there, and take the
opportunity to inform you how I view it, from a Christian
perspective.

I will say this though: The fact that some of these writers
emphasize financial institutions such as the World Bank, the
International Monetary Fund and the World Trade Organization
so much, actually serves to add weight to one of my original
statements; which is that, from a regular reading of God's
Word, I am given a clear impression, that the major Endtime
events which are yet to transpire, will be a result, not of
an alien invasion from Outer Space, but rather of a natural
progression of economic, political, military and religious
events. This becomes apparent when one reads the prophecies
of Daniel, the Book of Revelation, and Jesus' own prophecies
found in the Gospels.

In my view, the World Bank, the International Monetary Fund,
the World Trade Organization, and other financial entities,
could play, and may already be playing, very important roles
which will ultimately result in the formation of a powerful,
dictatorial New World Order, or One World Government; which
will derive its power, not from alien beings as some writers
have suggested, but rather from absolute economic control of
the world's population. This will ultimately be achieved by
means of a computerized credit system, a cashless society,
which the Bible refers to as the 666, or Mark of the Beast.
The possible involvement of the aforementioned institutions
becomes quite apparent, when we consider the truth found in
such verses as the following:

"And he causeth all, both small and great, rich and poor,
free and bond, to receive a mark in their right hand, or in
their foreheads: And that no man might buy or sell, save he
that had the mark, or the name of the beast, or the number
of his name. Here is wisdom. Let him that hath understanding
count the number of the beast: for it is the number of a
man; and his number is Six hundred threescore and six."
Revelation 13:16-18, KJV

From these verses, it becomes clear, as I've already stated,
that the New World Order, or One World Government, will not
only derive its power from the dragon's deception, that is,
Satan, who the Bible tells us will be insidiously working
from behind the scenes, through his chosen leaders, but also
from extremely tight economic control of the masses. Whether
or not this control will be global in nature, remains to be
seen. If you would like to learn more about this evil system,
and discover exactly how it might be physically implemented,
allow me to encourage you to read some of my other articles,
which you can find on the Endtime Prophecy Net website. These
articles include the following:

1. Precursors To The 666 And Mark Of The Beast
2. 666 - More Proof Of The Coming System
3. 666: Patience Of The Saints
4. Mondex And The Mark Of The Beast

If you are rather skeptical of some of the statements I have
made here concerning the 666 and Mark of the Beast system, I
would particularly encourage you to read the aforementioned
articles. If you do, I believe that you will quickly come to
realize that these ideas are not so far-fetched, or just the
product of demented minds and religious fanatics. There are
developments occurring right now in the financial, as well
as in the scientific fields, which simply cannot be denied;
and they should be a source of alarm for anyone who may be
concerned with what lies ahead. It is not a matter of "if",
but rather of "when", because the things I'm describing for
you are going to happen, whether you choose to believe them
or not.

If an international crisis is truly going to occur sometime
in the near future, then I would propose, that based upon
the current world financial situation, rather than being an
earth-shaking invasion from Outer Space, it could very well
be a global financial meltdown. If you would like to better
understand how and why such a meltdown may occur, I strongly
encourage you to read my series entitled "Saddam Hussein's
Execution And The Euro Dollar War". While the U.S. dollar
currently appears to reign supreme on the global markets, it
may very well be that its demise is just around the corner.

If the alleged behind-the-scenes manipulators are so intent
on creating their global financial empire, where every human
being will be reduced to being a faceless number found in a
computer database, it may very well be, that when they deem
that the time is right, they will simply allow the crisis to
occur, through their unquestionable control of the world's
money markets. Given the totalitarian nature of the coming
New World Order, it is obvious that a lot of people are not
going to be very willing to embrace it. However, if such a
global financial crisis were to occur, then obviously, even
those people who are opposed to a New World Order, such as
those who protest at the World Trade Organization meetings,
as well as at the World Economic Forum meetings in Davos,
Switzerland, would have no other choice but to accept it,
even grudgingly; that is, if they hope to survive.

There is one other possibility; and that is that the coming
prophesied Mark of the Beast system, might not be the result
of an intentional global crisis, but rather, it may possibly
be the result of the financial leaders of the world making
one last desperate attempt to prevent it from happening. In
other words, their selling point might be "Look; if we don't
swallow this bitter pill, and implement this computer-based
system on a worldwide scale, and soon, we are headed for
some serious financial trouble. Tighter control, and a loss
of a few personal freedoms, is better than worldwide chaos
and anarchy". Adopting that do-or-die line might possibly
convince a lot of countries, and people, that there really
is no other choice in the matter. But, if they accept that
lie, as I point out in the aforementioned articles, they
will be damned.

But regardless of how the One World Government, or New World
Order evolves, whether it is the result of an invasion from
Outer Space, be it real or staged; or the result of a global
financial meltdown, whether it is real, staged, or perhaps
simply unavoidable; or the result of some other mechanism,
the bottom line still remains the same; and that is that the
entire system will be devised by, and controlled by, satanic
forces. The Scriptures make it perfectly clear that it will
be Draco the deceptive dragon; that is, Satan the murderer,
usurper, liar and destroyer, who will be behind it all.
