He illustrated his call by pulling from his pocket a sample coin of a “united future world currency.”</p>
<blockquote><p>“Here it is, You can see it and touch it.”</p>
<p style="text-align: right;">Dmitry Medvedev</p>
</blockquote>
<p>The coin, which bears the words “unity in diversity,” was minted in Belgium and presented to the heads of G-8 delegations, Medvedev said, <span id="more-671"></span>The question of a supranational currency “concerns everyone now, even the mints,” Medvedev said. The test coin “means they’re getting ready. I think it’s a good sign that we understand how interdependent we are.”</p>

<p>Medvedev has repeatedly called for creating a mix of regional reserve currencies as part of the drive to address the global financial crisis, while questioning the U.S. dollar’s future as a global reserve currency. Russia’s proposals for the G-20 meeting in London in April included the creation of a supranational currency.</p>

[ I highly recomend PZ and PZ Radio as a great place to get your would news with a Christian Twist ]</span></strong></p>
<p><img class="alignright size-full wp-image-93" title="PZ Summer Drive" src="http://bible-matters.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/06/pzsummerdrive11.jpg" alt="PZ Summer Drive" width="300" height="316" /></p>
<p>It is summer here at Prophezine and with it being summer, we loose many of our readers, sometimes up to 1/3, due to summer vacation, trips to Disneyland, ect. It seems that when summer comes, people cut us out of the budget and Disney wins.</p>
<p>We also let you know last week that a vehicle has presented itself. So Tracye and I raising the bar a bit and trying to encourage you to become a yearly PZ Insider.<span id="more-61"></span></p>
<p>If we just got 35 new Yearly PZ Insiders, it would help us get that vehicle. So how did we raise the bar? Each person that subscribes to be a yearly PZ Insider ($100.00 subscription) will get a DVD chock full of all our PZ Radio shows 2006 thru 2008, our special broadcasts &#8221; March Madness In The Middle East&#8221; and &#8220;Apostasy Now&#8221; as well as our Q &amp; A Round table with Walid Shoebat just this last fall 2008. If there is anything we are forgetting, we will add that to the DVD too.</p>
<p>Now we have interviewed just about everyone you can think of on PZ Radio..</p>
<ul>
<li>Al Gist</li>
<li>Chuck Missler</li>
<li>Berit Kjos</li>
<li>Carl Teichrib</li>

</ul>
<p>The list goes on and on.</p>
<p>In fact we interviewed just about everyone except Hal Lindsey, Grant Jeffrey and Jack Van Impe on PZ Radio.</p>
<p>This DVD has approximately 150 hours of PZ Radio in MP3 format so that you can burn them to CD and listen to them in your car, put them on your favorite MP3 Player or listen to them on your computer. Folks, If I have done my math correctly that is over 800 megs of PZ Radio.</p>
<p>This is our gift to you for coming on board as a yearly PZ Insider.</p>
<p>IN FACT, if you are a current PZ Insider and you wish to help us this summer by donating $100.00 we will send you the entire 2006 &#8211; 2008 PZ Radio Collection to you as well.</p>
<p>Please consider becoming a PZ Insider and help us get through the summer and get a vehicle we feel that the Lord had lead us too. As you know, it is just Tracye and I here. We don&#8217;t have a fancy office, shiny white teeth nor fancy hair-dos. We run Prophezine out of our home&#8217;s dining room and it is your support that makes the difference.</p>

<h2>SPECIAL PZ RADIO &#8211; Open For All To Hear</h2>
<p>The Lost Interview With Wilfred Hahn</p>
<p>Folks, I have found a lost diamond&#8230; I was working on my laptop and discovered a lost interview I did with Wilfred Hahn at the Pre Trib Research Center Conference this past December. It is mind blowing the financial aspects we were talking about and look at what is happening today. Now let me remind you, Obama was not in office yet, but in this interview Wilfred was already pegging him and the outcome of the global economy. IF you are a student of bible prophecy, you need to download this show.</p>
<p>We have Barbara Henderson continuing her series on secret societies and in this episode she goes in depth on the Freemasons as well as her own personal background with the masons. WOW&#8230; Is all I can say.</p>
<p><strong>Remember&#8230; You&#8217;re Listening To PZ Radio!</strong></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Police officers told an open-air preacher in Gainsborough, Lincolnshire,<strong> it is a criminal offence to identify homosexuality as a sin</strong>. They said this to Andy Robertson, even though he had not mentioned homosexuality in his preaching.</p>
<p>He was recording his preaching because the local council had been making allegations about the content of his message. The conversation with police officers was caught on tape.</p>
<p>We are very close now to the church being told it can not longer preach from the Bible. The Bible is all but an illegal book in the UK now. It is just a small step form being declared illegal under hate crimes law!</p>
<p>Preach while you still have opportunity.</p>

</div>
</div>
<p>The Government is not content with undermining all public standards of decency if is going to brake the church too.</p>
<p>Equalities minister Maria Eagle said religious believers should push ‘gay rights’ in their communities, but in the meantime the state would do it.</p>
<p><strong>The tolerant left once again has shown just how totally intolerant it is to anyone who has standards of decency.</strong></p>
<p>At present churches can restrict certain posts to heterosexuals as long as those posts are for the purposes of organised religion, which could include jobs like a youth worker. Under the new legislation this exemption will be greatly narrowed to only jobs that involve leading worship or explaining doctrine.</p>
<p>Maria Eagle, the Government&#8217;s equalities minister said that <em>“while the state would not intervene in narrowly ritual or doctrinal matters”</em> it would tell churches what to do in other areas.</p>
<p>She also said <em>“members of faith groups have a role in making the argument in their own communities for greater LGBT acceptance, but in the meantime the state has a duty to protect people from unfair treatment.”</em></p>

</div>
</div>
<p>Allah or the Lord Jesus Christ? The Muslim religion is by far the fastest growing religion in the UK .</p>
<p>Last month I attended my annual training session that&#8217;s required for maintaining my prison security clearance. During the training session there was a presentation by three speakers representing the Roman Catholic, Protestant and Muslim faiths, who explained each of their beliefs.</p>
<p>I was particularly interested in what the Islamic Imam had to say. The Imam gave a great presentation of the basics of Islam, complete with a video.</p>
<p>After the presentations, time was provided for questions and answers.</p>
<p>When it was my turn, I directed my question to the Imam and asked:<span id="more-80"></span> &#8216;Please, correct me if I&#8217;m wrong, but I understand that most Imams and clerics of Islam have declared a holy jihad [Holy war] against the infidels of the world and, that by killing an infidel, (which is a command to all Muslims) they are assured of a place in heaven. If that&#8217;s the case, can you give me the definition of an infidel?&#8217;</p>
<p>There was no disagreement with my statements and, without hesitation, he replied, &#8216;Non-believers!&#8217;</p>
<p>I responded, &#8216;So, let me make sure I have this straight. All followers of Allah have been commanded to kill everyone who is not of your faith so they can have a place in heaven. Is that correct?&#8217;</p>
<p>The expression on his face changed from one of authority and command  to that of  &#8216;a little boy who had just been caught with his hand in the cookie jar.&#8217;</p>
<p>He sheepishly replied, &#8216;Yes.&#8217;</p>
<p>I then stated, &#8216;Well, I have a real problem trying to imagine Pope Benedict commanding all Catholics to kill those of your faith or Dr. Stanley ordering all Protestants to do the same in order to guarantee them a place in heaven!&#8217;</p>
<p>The Imam was speechless!</p>
<p>I continued, &#8216;I also have a problem with being your &#8216;friend&#8217; when you and your brother clerics are telling your followers to kill me! Let me ask you a question. Would you rather have your Allah, who tells you to kill me in order for you to go to heaven, or my Jesus who tells me to love you  because I am going to heaven and He wants you to be there with me?&#8217;</p>
<p>You could have heard a pin drop as the Imam remained speechless.</p>
<p>Needless to say, the organizers and promoters of the &#8216;Diversification&#8217;  training seminar were not happy with this way of dealing with the Islamic Imam and exposing the truth about the Muslims&#8217; beliefs.</p>
<p>Within twenty years there will be enough Muslim voters in the U.K. to elect a government of their choice, complete with sharia law.</p>
<p>I think everyone in the U.K. should be required to read this, but with the Liberal justice system, liberal media and political correctness madness, there is no way this will be widely publicised.</p>

<p>The professor asked the young man what was the matter. The  student told him he had a bullet lodged in his back. He had been shot while fighting communists in his native country who were trying to overthrow his country&#8217;s government and install a new communist government.</p>
<p>In the midst of his story he looked at the professor and asked a strange question. He asked, <strong>&#8216;Do you know how to catch wild pigs?&#8217; </strong></p>
<p>The professor thought it was a joke and asked for the punch line. The young man said this was no joke. &#8216;You catch wild pigs by finding a suitable place in the woods and putting corn on the ground. The pigs find it and begin to come everyday to eat the free corn. When they are used to coming every day<span id="more-84"></span>, you put a fence down one side of the place where they are used to coming. When they get used to the fence, they begin to eat the corn again and you put up another side of the fence. They get used to that and start to eat again. You continue until you have all four sides of the fence up with a gate in The last side. The pigs, who are used to the free corn, start to come through the gate to eat, you slam the gate on them and catch the whole herd.</p>
<p>Suddenly the wild pigs have lost their freedom. They run around and around inside the fence, but they are caught. Soon they go back to eating the free corn. They are so used to it that they have forgotten how to forage in the woods for themselves, so they accept their captivity.</p>
<p><strong>The young man then told the professor that is exactly what he sees happening to America.</strong> The government keeps pushing us toward socialism and keeps spreading the free corn out in the form of programs such as supplemental income, tax credit for unearned income, tobacco subsidies, dairy subsidies, payments not to plant crops (CRP), welfare, medicine, drugs, etc&#8230; While we continually lose our freedoms &#8212; just a little at a time.</p>
<p>One should always remember: There is no such thing as a free lunch! Also, a politician will never provide a service for you cheaper than you can do it yourself.</p>
<p>Also, if you see that all of this wonderful government &#8216;help&#8217; is a problem confronting the future of democracy in America , you might want to send this on to your friends. If you think the free ride is essential to your way of life then you will probably delete this email, but God help you when the gate slams shut!</p>
<p>Keep your eyes on the newly elected politicians who are about to slam the gate on America.&#8221;</p>
<p><strong>This is not an easy problem to know how to address. A social welfare society does not only create dependents, it distorts society to the point where you could not service without the welfare.</strong></p>
<p>Some people taking the free food, (and I speak as one who has some help with rent and income), distorts the whole economy.</p>
<p>When some employers pay too little for their employees to live on, and when the employees accept this because social support will make up the difference. That employer can undercut better paying companies and the better ones go to the wall or have to effectively cut wages to compete. The motivation for the employee to better themselves and to find a better job is not there as a better paid joy will attract less benefit.</p>
<p>The effect of this is to skew the market in favour of the poor paying companies.</p>
<p>I am not saying CUT THE BENEFIT either. Once a society reaches this point it is hard to reverse the effect without a lot of pain.</p>
<p><strong>But society becomes even more distorted. </strong></p>
<p>As a society we have made cheep finance available, and encouraged high spending. The arrival of the contraceptive pill and other more effective baby prevention has lead  couples to delay having a family until latter, allowing them to buy a house on two incomes that in the past would have been brought on the income of just the man. Now house and other prices rise to meet the available income. This reaches the point where it is just about impossible to buy a house on one normal income.</p>
<p>Now it is not a matter of chose to delay the family, it is necessary if you want to buy a house. You have to choose, house of your own or family. Once you have the mortgagee around your neck you then can not start your family until your incomes have increased to the point where one income can pay the monthly payments.</p>
<p>As house prices rise the percentage that you can borrow has increased to — some time 120% the value of the house.</p>
<p>And so the financiers of society get yet further distorted.</p>
<p><strong>We no longer live in a society where it is easy for a man to provide for his family from one average wage and provide the expected standard of living in the west, without state intervention. </strong></p>

<p>The Muslim-dominated nations at the United Nations are once again pushing for a religious &#8220;anti-defamation&#8221; bar worldwide. They are seeking to make all criticism of their founder Muhammad and his teaching illegal.</p>
<p>According to a report by CNN&#8217;s Lou Dobbs posted on YouTube, (see below), the proposal that has been repeatedly brought in recent years by the Organization of Islamic Conference states is expected to resurface as early as this spring.</p>
<p>This time, however, the resolution wouldn&#8217;t allow nations to opt out.</p>
<p>&#8220;The United Nations has adopted what it calls a Resolution to Combat Defamation of Religion,&#8221; Dobbs said in the report. &#8220;The U.N. now wants to make that anti-blasphemy resolution binding on member nations. That would make it a crime&#8230; to criticize religion, in particular, Islam.&#8221;</p>
<p>Constitutional lawyer Floyd Abrams said in the report, &#8220;What they would do would be to make it illegal to put out a movie or write a book or a<span id="more-85"></span> poem that somebody could say was defamatory of Islam.&#8221;</p>
<p class="rtecenter" style="text-align: center;"><span style="color: #999999;">Lou Dobbs: U.N Anti-Blasphemy Resolution&#8230;&#8230;.A Crime to Criticize Religion? 2/26</span></p>
<p class="rtecenter" style="text-align: center;"><object classid="clsid:d27cdb6e-ae6d-11cf-96b8-444553540000" width="425" height="344" codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=6,0,40,0"><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true" /><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always" /><param name="src" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/YHcwL5S1OSw&amp;hl=en&amp;fs=1&amp;rel=0&amp;color1=0x5d1719&amp;color2=0xcd311b" /><param name="allowfullscreen" value="true" /><embed type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="425" height="344" src="http://www.youtube.com/v/YHcwL5S1OSw&amp;hl=en&amp;fs=1&amp;rel=0&amp;color1=0x5d1719&amp;color2=0xcd311b" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true"></embed></object></p>
<p>The anti-defamation resolutions began with describing the &#8220;need&#8221; to protect Islam and in recent years has developed into a call for the protection for &#8220;religions&#8221; from defamation.</p>
<p>However, <strong>the only religion specifically cited, in fact, is Islam.</strong></p>
<p>The Muslim nations have sought to have member states enact laws banning such &#8220;blasphemy.&#8221;</p>
<p>You can be sure that criticism of Christianity, portrayals of Jesus as a homosexual, the condemning to death of converts from Islam will all be considered acceptable.</p>

<p><a rel="attachment wp-att-235" href="http://bible-matters.com/the-dangers-in-the-new-bible-versions/nkjv2a/"><img class="alignright size-full wp-image-235" title="Bible with Counterfeit spamped on it." src="http://bible-matters.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/02/nkjv2a.jpg" alt="Bible with Counterfeit spamped on it." width="300" height="319" /></a>This morning I was listening to a Radio programme by a trusted preacher and teacher. He was speaking about the things that people think of as Christian or taught in the Bible, but that are not, like:</p>
<ul>
<li>Eve eating an Apple, when all the Bible tells us is that it was a fruit.</li>
<li>There being three wise men at the birth of Jesus when we do not actually know how many there were and we can be pretty sure that they did not come along until much later, may be even two years after the birth of Christ.</li>
</ul>
<p>They also talked about the fact that we should not be celebrating Easter as it is not a Biblical feast, but a pagan fertility festival.</p>
<p>So far so good &#8211; I could not agree with them more.</p>
<p>Then they talked about the King James Version, (KJV), of the Bible having mistranslated the Greek work pascha as Easter where all the other Bibles have this rightly translated as Passover.</p>
<p>Humm!</p>
<p><strong>This is where bells began to ring!<span id="more-87"></span><br />
</strong></p>
<p>If the KJV has this wrong, what Bible can I trust? For years I though that the KJV was old fashioned and archaic, but over the last ten years I have become convinced that it is the only truly accurate English translation.</p>
<p>This did not really get me questioning as I already know the answer.</p>
<p><strong>The answer is very simple and I will let you in on it in a moment, but let us first think through some problems that have come our way over the last few decades that our parents, or at least their parents, did not have.</strong></p>
<ul>
<li>So many versions!</li>
<li>Which one is right?</li>
<li>Is this one right here, and that one better at translating that, but that one translates this passage better. Which one is right? Do I need to read all of them? One Bible is hard enough to read, but all of these!!!</li>
<li>If we do not have a true and accurate ONE translation we can no longer say &#8220;Thus saith the Lord&#8221;.</li>
<li>If one translation is better here and another better there &#8211; How do I know what God is saying?</li>
<li>Do I trust my feelings about what is right or do we step back into the bad old days when I do not know what is right, and I have to have the priest or the Greek expert to tell me what I should believe?</li>
<li>What is the point of me reading the Bible for myself if I might be reading a wrong translation in this passage from this Bible.</li>
</ul>
<p>We no longer have all the church knowing and learning the same words when they memorize scripture.</p>
<p>Possibly a greater problem is the <a href="http://camelphotos.com/tales_nose.html" onclick="pageTracker._trackPageview('/outgoing/camelphotos.com/tales_nose.html?referer=');">camels nose</a> effect.</p>
<p><strong>The new translations of the last 50 years or so started in a fairly conservative way with the New International Version, (NIV), and the Good News Bible, (GNB), but as time goes on, more and more liberal and perverted versions are coming out.</strong></p>
<p>The TNIV, (Todays NIV), is a gender inclusive version that assumes that God has no differentiation in the roles of men and women, sometimes refers to Jesus in a gender neuteral way, though it says it never does so for God. Do they not believe Jesus is God?</p>
<p>We now have the Message Bible and the Rap Bible</p>
<p class="rteindent1">The Hidden Treasure (Mat. 13:44)<br />
Once there was a man who found a treasure.<br />
Hidden in a field, and he took pleasure.<br />
In selling all he had to buy that field.<br />
To gain the treasure it would yield.<br />
God has a treasure, it&#8217;s hidden away.<br />
But seek and you shall find some day.<br />
That treasure he offers which is life through the Son.<br />
A life which will last after your life here is done.</p>
<p>You can now by Bibles like the &#8216;Study New Testament for Lesbians, Gays, Bi, and Transgender&#8217; or find the Princess Diana Bible online. At one time this was a gay version with God creating Aida and Eve instead of Adam and Eve. The Princess Diana Bible has now been completely re-written, (at least Gen 1 and 2 has), to be a pro-evolution Bible including apes explaining the sun as a god and then it goes a bit green and into not enough food, and fear or others taking their food.</p>
<p><strong>There is a powerful programme of undermining the Bible&#8217;s authority and Christian doctrine going on and most of the Church do not even know it!</strong></p>
<ul>
<li>We need to know what the Bible is.</li>
<li>We need to be able to say, (Bible in hand), this is what God says.</li>
<li>We need a Bible that we can read and trust to be true through and through.</li>
<li>We can not have doubts about whether what we have in our hand is the right Bible, we need to know it is the right Bible. The only Bible.</li>
</ul>
<p><strong>I Believe this has to be the KJV. No other Bible comes near it. The others are so full of errors.</strong> See further reading at the end.</p>
<h2>Now back to the KJV and Easter in the Bible.</h2>
<p>The places that pascha appears and should be Easter is in Acts 12:4.</p>
<p class="rteindent1">“And when he [Herod] had apprehended him [Peter], he put him in prison, and delivered him to four quaternions of soldiers to keep him; intending after Easter to bring him forth to the people.” Acts 12:4 [in square brackets my addition].</p>
<p>But the truth of what is being referred to by pascha is found in v3</p>
<p class="rteindent1">“And because he [Herod] saw it pleased the Jews, he proceeded further to take Peter also. (Then were the days of unleavened bread.)” Acts 12:3.</p>
<p>The days of unleavened bread are AFTER PASSOVER not before so for Herod to be planning to keep Peter until after passover would have been about 51 and a ½ weeks. Herod was waiting until after Easter the pagan festival, that today we celebrate in the church, not Passover.</p>
<p>In Ex 12:18 we see that dates for the observance of Passover and Unleavened Bread were April 14th through the 21st. This religious observance is stated more clearly in Numbers 28:16-18:</p>
<p class="rteindent1">“16 And in the fourteenth day of the first month is the passover of the LORD. 17 And in the fifteenth day of this month is the feast: seven days shall unleavened bread be eaten. 18 In the first day shall be an holy convocation; ye shall do no manner of servile work therein:” Numbers 28:16-18</p>
<p><strong>The 1st day is Passover, and the rest are Days of Unleavened Bread. Acts 12:3 tells us they are already past Passover and in the Days of Unleavened Bread.</strong></p>
<p>Herod is going to bring Peter out in a few days after the pagan festival of Easter.</p>
<p>For the new translators to not know that the Passover precedes the Days of Unleavened Bread is not a good recommendation of their Bible knowledge.</p>
<p>The best treatment I know on Easter in Acts 12:4 is by Dr. Samuel C. Gipp and can be read <a href="http://av1611.org/kjv/easter.html" onclick="pageTracker._trackPageview('/outgoing/av1611.org/kjv/easter.html?referer=');">here</a>.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong><a rel="attachment wp-att-238" href="http://bible-matters.com/gordon-brown-yet-another-step-towards-global-government/no10-pressconfrience-18-02-09/"><img class="alignright size-full wp-image-238" title="no10-pressconfrience-18-02-09" src="http://bible-matters.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/02/no10-pressconfrience-18-02-09.jpg" alt="no10-pressconfrience-18-02-09" width="300" height="223" /></a>Co-operation is good, right? Yes of course it is. A strong police state is good, right? I mean if you have done nothing wrong you have nothing to fear. </strong>A surveillance society where your phonecalls, e-mails, web browsing habits are monitored has no fear for the good citizen does it? CCTV cameras prevent crime and help to find those who still do commit crime don&#8217;t they?</p>
<p>The answer to all of these is of course a resounding YES! Well, that is in a perfect world.</p>
<p>In a perfect world the fact that the supermarkets know everything you normally buy and know when you are likely to be in to buy it again is all to your good and will help them to serve you more efficiently.<br />
In the perfect world the banks knowing your normal spending habits will help them to detect fraud. (Mind you in the perfect world there would be no fraud would there!).</p>
<p>In the perfect world the leaders of nations coming together to help solve global problems would be a good thing. Even the formation of global organizations; International Monetory Funds, World Banks, the United Nations would be a good thing, possibly a very good thing. Each nation acting equitably toward each other, except &#8216;nations&#8217; wouldn&#8217;t probably be allowed!</p>
<p>But who lives in a perfect world?<span id="more-88"></span></p>
<p>We live in a far from perfect world, a world where companies use the information they have to maximize the profit that they can make from you. Where your every little weakness, found out, will be used to your disadvantage.</p>
<p>A world where dark forces maneuver behind the scenes and the good and the innocent are not always the ones who benefit. A world where protecting your property is a crime with a heavier penalty than stealing, where a rancher in the states is prosecuted for detaining illegal immegrants that are crossing his land, where creation evangelists are put in prison for tax evation and Bernard Madoff will probably walk free!</p>
<p>So in a world like this how safe is it to have so much power becoming more and more focused on a few world organizations?</p>
<p>William Pitt, British Prime Minister from 1766 to 1778 said that &#8220;Unlimited power is apt to corrupt the minds of those who possess it&#8221;, but the real problem is that the minds are already corrupt. It is that &#8216;having unlimited power&#8217; that gives those with already corrupt minds the opportunity to let the corrupt minds have reign without restraint.</p>
<p>Personal, selfish, self interest, tends to keep something of a check on the evil within others. When countries are vying with each other there is some mechanism for restraint, but as we move more and more to, not a totalitarian state, but a totalitarian world government, where will the restraint be?</p>
<p>When we hear of Gordon Brown, as below, having just come back from a meeting with Chief of the IMF, Dominic Strauss-Khan and the President of the World Bank Paul Wolfowitz where they have been discussing &#8216;the development of the world economy over the next few months and the road to the G20&#8242; and where THEY are publishing a document &#8211; ‘The Road to the London Summit’. It concerns me.</p>
<p class="rtecenter" style="text-align: center;"><span style="color: #999999;">Gordon Brown at his regular Downing Street press conference</span></p>
<p class="rtecenter" style="text-align: center;"><object classid="clsid:d27cdb6e-ae6d-11cf-96b8-444553540000" width="486" height="412" codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=6,0,40,0"><param name="name" value="flashObj" /><param name="bgcolor" value="#FFFFFF" /><param name="flashvars" value="videoId=13479181001&amp;playerId=1570028817&amp;viewerSecureGatewayURL=https://console.brightcove.com/services/amfgateway&amp;servicesURL=http://services.brightcove.com/services&amp;cdnURL=http://admin.brightcove.com&amp;domain=embed&amp;autoStart=false&amp;" /><param name="src" value="http://services.brightcove.com/services/viewer/federated_f8/1570028817" /><embed type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="486" height="412" src="http://services.brightcove.com/services/viewer/federated_f8/1570028817" flashvars="videoId=13479181001&amp;playerId=1570028817&amp;viewerSecureGatewayURL=https://console.brightcove.com/services/amfgateway&amp;servicesURL=http://services.brightcove.com/services&amp;cdnURL=http://admin.brightcove.com&amp;domain=embed&amp;autoStart=false&amp;" bgcolor="#FFFFFF" name="flashObj"></embed></object></p>
<p>Mr Brown is going on to meet with Chancellor Merkel, President Sarkozy, Prime Minister Berlusconi, Zapatero from Spain and the President of the European Commission and the new President of the European Union, and he has had a number of talks by phone with a number of other world leaders. And while he has not as yet had a meeting with President Obama, he has officials and Ministers meeting the American administration to talk about the world economic crises.</p>
<p>As I have said, in a perfect world this would be great. It probably should not be too bad in the world we live in today, it is certainly better than them shouldering up to each other in a spiral to world war.<br />
But if, and I suspect there is a little bit more certainty about it than just a vague &#8216;if,&#8217; there are bigger forces at work manipulating circumstances and world affairs, who will be the hand of restraint if and when we see more and more concentration of power in the hands of the few?</p>
<p>In Prime Minister Brown&#8217;s February press conference we hear him talking about:-</p>
<p>&#8220;We have got&#8230;to show people that the world can come together to make decisions about the banking system and the financial system as a whole.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;Make decisions about how we can best regulate and supervise the financial institutions in all our countries.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;I think we are fashioning for the future a global deal, a grand bargain&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;Each continent accepts its responsibility and its obligations to act to deal with what is a global problem that can only be solved with a global solution&#8221;.</p>
<p>&#8216;Each continent?&#8217; I thought we were united, sovereign countries, but the terminology is changing. More and more we hear talk of &#8216;European regions&#8217; and &#8216;Continents&#8217; as political regions not geographic areas.<br />
Mr Brown goes on to talk of &#8220;the world to work together&#8221; and of &#8220;a global problem, which requires global solutions.&#8221;</p>
<p>He continues &#8220;The whole world must also take action on regulation and supervision of the banking system.&#8221; and to talks of regulatory cooperation and insufficient transparency in a shadow banking system.<br />
He says &#8220;we know also that cross-border supervision of the banking system has not been good enough.&#8221; He believe that we must have much more governmental control of the world&#8217;s money.</p>
<p>Mr Brown believes that &#8220;we must persuade the whole of the world to take action and that will include action against regulatory and tax havens in parts of the world which have escaped the regulatory attention that they need.  That is why we are saying in this document that changes that we make will have to apply to all jurisdictions round the world.&#8221;</p>
<p>There is to be no place on Earth where you are not, and your money is not, under the World Authorized, complete control.</p>
<p>He is pushing for a &#8220;global new deal, a global bargain&#8221;</p>
<blockquote>
<p class="rteindent1" style="text-align: left;"><em>16 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:<br />
17 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.</em></p>
<p class="rteindent1" style="text-align: right;"><em><strong>Revelation 13:16-17</strong></em></p>
</blockquote>
<p>The nature of the One World government that many speak of as the End Times government of this world is not easy to determine, however what the Bible does make very clear is that there is going to be a totalitarian world wide system of control over man&#8217;s ability to buy or sell.</p>
<p>There is no way that this could come about today. There is too much diversity and too many areas of the world where regulation is too weak. So if you want to have some measure or time signal as to where we are in the end times, look at the world monetary system and how ready is it to bring total control?</p>
<p>I do not know whether Gordon Brown knows the roll he is playing in the World Powers end game, but it looks very much to me that he has a central roll in bringing about a system of world control over man&#8217;s ability to buy and sell with freedom.</p>
<p>How true are his words when he says &#8220;The old orthodoxies will not serve us well in the future.  We have got to think the previously unthinkable, we have got to do what was previously undoable.&#8221;</p>
<p>Just a few years ago you could not have realistically foreseen a time when the leaders of the world were talking about bringing the whole Earth&#8217;s monetary system under world regulation. It was just unthinkable, it was undoable. Today it is thinkable, tomorrow it may be doable!</p>
