Many support the concept of a one-world government. Unfortunately, many of them are Americans actively working toward that end. Judges considered for the Supreme Court advocate including international law in considering our constitutional questions.
Walter Conkrite was openly in favor of a one-world government under the auspices of the United Nations. He desired the UN to make law and to have the military forces to enforce those laws. In 1999 when he accepted the Norman Cousiins Global Governance Award, given by the World Federalists Association, he is quoted as saying: ”Pat Robertson has written in a book a few years ago that we should have a world government, but only when the Messiah arrives. He wrote, literally, any attempt to achieve world order before that time must be the work of the devil. Well, join me. I'm glad to sit here at the right hand of Satan”
Conkrite was "mainstream media." Journalists hold him as the example of what to be. Unfortunately, it is the example of how to influence people, not how to report facts and keep them separate from personal ideology.
It would help American to have the same separation of journalism/state as is required for religion/state. Today’s Fourth Estate frowns as equally upon the political leaders of our nation as it does on religion and common people. It is obvious they “know what’s best for all”, for they continually tell us so. The media works to shapes public opinion, and does not understand when that opinion differs from what has been published.
A one-world government is coming. Pat Robertson is wrong to think otherwise. It may not be created by, but will be led by the anti-Christ and is just as real as the death of Christ on the cross. Is it well for Christians to pray, as Christ prayed, that this cup pass -- but we must also be prepared, as He was, to accept God's plan. To deny its coming would be to deny prophecy.
The key is preparation. Work with the Holy Spirit to reach souls. Be the watchman Ezekiel was told to be -- tell them the prophecies. And, be prepared to shake dust off when it is time. Also, be aware that we don't know what time there is. Use what we have to do follow instructions given to us:
Either how canst thou say to thy brother, Brother, let me pull out the mote that is in thine eye, when thou thyself beholdest not the beam that is in thine own eye? Thou hypocrite, cast out first the beam out of thine own eye, and then shalt thou see clearly to pull out the mote that is in thy brother's eye. (Luke 6:42)
Be certain of your own adherence to God’s will in your life. He will lay before you the work to be done. Isaiah 49:8 is quoted by Paul to explain that today is the day of salvation:
(For he saith, I have heard thee in a time accepted, and in the day of salvation have I succoured thee: behold, now is the accepted time; behold, now is the day of salvation.) (2 Corinthians 6:2)
When speaking of those last days, Jesus gave us a warning. We would do well to heed it:
And as he sat upon the mount of Olives, the disciples came unto him privately, saying, Tell us, when shall these things be? and what shall be the sign of thy coming, and of the end of the world? And Jesus answered and said unto them, Take heed that no man deceive you. (Matthew 24:3-4)
