UN proposes planetary regulation of food & water.

[The Matt]

Well you have to remember, he's gonna be pretty crafty as well. He's going to fool a looooot of people...

[AreYouReady?]

A whole lot of people have been fooled for 99 years right here in America.

Thank you.

The bible does not teach Antichrist... but antichrists.

The global food regulation is called Codex Alimentarius. It will essentially do away with health food supplements like it did in Europe by lowering the recommended daily allowance. It allows an increase in pesticide levels...basically going topsy-turvy from what was safe to becoming unsafe.

I've always believed that the U.N. will be dissolved soon and give way to a larger much more powerful organization much like the League of Nations was broken down. I believe the next organization will be structured on top of the smaller continental unions (North American Union, EU, Asian Union, African Union, etc).

As for the antichrist, I never saw the Catholic Church as the AntiChrist system. I believe he'll come out of one of the secular humanist religious groups. If you've ever heard of it, there are thousands waiting for the coming of a "universal messiah" they call Maitreya. It's worth looking into.

I believe that it is possible that the UN would prove to be a decent global forum in which the Antichrist begins his work.

Personally, if there is a future Antichrist... I believe he will be a charismatic Muslim leader claiming to be the Al-Mahdi. In Islam the Al-Mahdi is the Islamic "Guided One" who ushers in the final Caliphate and expands Islamic law throughout the world just prior to the day of judgment. In Islamic prophecy Isis (Jesus) returns claiming to only be a prophet and compels the world to honor the Al-Mahdi. Could this "Isis" or "Jesus" be the (false prophet?). Apparently the Al-Mahdi brings peace to the region through providing a false Torah scroll and the Jewish authorities submit to him. However, there is a revolt led by fundamentalist Jewish rebels (the two witnesses?) and the Al-Mahdi gives the order to slaughter every Jew wherever they are found and squashes the rebellion (martyrdom of the two witnesses?). The Al-Mahdi sets himself up in the Al-Aqsa Mosque and makes Jerusalem the capitol of the final Caliphate. Please note... the Al-Aqsa Mosque is... on the Temple Mount in Jerusalem.

Isn't it interesting how their "messiah" or "guided one" is prophecied in their Hadiths and the Quaran as doing almost the very thing most Christians believe the Bible tells us the Antichrist will do??? If the Bible is right and Islam plays a part in the Antichrist's grasping for global domination... we already have over 1.6 BILLION people who are ready to embrace him, with many willing to die valiantly for his cause, should he appear.

The UN could provide an excellent forum in which a man with demonic power can enfluence the entire world and share his vision. Also note... Islamic law and enfluence is spreading, even in America.

The Bible also describes some of the lands the Beast will lead (Dan 11:42, Ezek 38):

o Egypt, which he will attack and subdue (Dan 11:42).
o Meschek and Tubal (most likely parts of Turkey, parts of Southern Russia, parts of Iran),
o Magog (a region convering parts of either Syria and/or former Soviet Republics of Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Uzbekistan, Turkmenistan, Tajikistan, Azerbaijan, Afghanistan, Chechnya, Turkey, Iran, Dagestan),
o Persia (Modern Iran)
o Cush (African Cush covers parts of Egypt, Sudan, Ethiopia. Asian Cush covers Arabia through Euphrates),
o Put (Libya),
o Gomer (Cappadocia, Turkey),
o Togarmah (southeastern part of Turkey near Syria)
o Babylon (Modern Iraq. The Euphrates River in Iraq is also mentioned together with the two Beasts in Rev 16:12-13),

Basically, this is the region spanning N. Africa, Arabia, Syria, Turkey, Iraq, Iran, Afghanistan and Central Asian Islamic Republics (the various -stans). There is a good chance that the Beast will be Islamic. Given how power is divided up in the UN... such an alliance of nations could have considerable clout in the UN.

Hmm, interesting, not sure I was aware of this. But surely there is an "ultimate" anti-Christ argument that would disagree?

When we're talking about Islam's influence on End Times events I don't think there's a question that this religious system is going to be highly influencial. I don't think that the AntiChrist will be practicioner of Islam though. Only because Islam is too "intolerant" of a religion, at least how it's practice in the Middle East. I think he'll claim to be the Mahdi, but I also think he'll claim to be a universal "second coming" type character. I believe he won't come as a polarizing figure but a unifying one, one who will succeed at unifying all of the world's religions including Christianity (mainly under the umbrella of the Roman Catholic Church). I believe each major religion has it's own base of leadership that will compromise and serve in the "one world" religious system.

As for Islamic Law spreading there's a specific reason for that. Islamic Law softening governments that are built on Judeo-Christian Principles and weakening those government's stand against radical Islam...

... a perfect way of bringing the west down to it's knees in preparation for a one world government. Sharia Law won't be fully implemented in the west, there's other agendas at stake there, the feminist agenda, the homosexual agenda, etc. What it will do is do everything in it's power to crush any opposition. Tolerate EVERYONE and EVERYTHING but true Bible-believing Christians. What Muslims don't understand is that their religion is a tool and has been since it's beginnings. There's significant evidence that Islam is the construct of Roman Catholicism. Then it was a tool, (according to Ex-Jesuit Priest Alberto Rivera) to destroy the Jews, now it is a tool to destroy any Christian group that won't kiss the feet of Rome. They don't understand that allah is a made up Pagan god that existed before Muhammed, proof being that Muhammed's own father was name Abdullah (which means "servant of Allah"). The Arab pagans worshipped allah long before the Quran was written.

If you look in the scripture you mention the Daniel 11 prophesy regarding Egypt. That prophecy is backed up by Isaiah 19:4:

"And the Egyptians will I give over into the hand of a cruel lord; and a fierce king shall rule over them, saith the Lord, the LORD of hosts."

But before this in Isaiah 19 there's a detailed process by which this comes to pass which actually mirrors current events. Isaiah 19:1-3 says:

"The burden of Egypt. Behold, the LORD rideth upon a swift cloud, and shall come into Egypt: and the idols of Egypt shall be moved at his presence, and the heart of Egypt shall melt in the midst of it. And I will set the Egyptians against the Egyptians: and they shall fight every one against his brother, and every one against his neighbour; city against city, and kingdom against kingdom. And the spirit of Egypt shall fail in the midst thereof; and I will destroy the counsel thereof: and they shall seek to the idols, and to the charmers, and to them that have familiar spirits, and to the wizards."

Of course you remember the Egyptian revolution. Well this pretty much describes the exact events that have happened there and are happening. The "idols" of Egypt have been moved, Mubarak has been defeated. The nation is in complete and utter chaos and if this scripture is correct I'd bet on it remaining so. Also note that right before verse 4 where the great cruel Lord rules over them (which may or may not mean he becomes the direct leader or some sort of world leader that exploits Egypt's chaos) there is a revival of mysticism, witchcraft, and strange religions in Egypt. If we start seeing Egypt and the Muslim world as a whole begin to turn to strange mysticism, witchcraft, occultism, etc (which is very possible) we know we might be close to the rise of this one world religious system.
