Dystopia :an imagined state or society in which there is great suffering or injustice, typically one that is totalitarian or post-apocalyptic. The whole world is seeing a Dystopian state appearing out of planned chaotic events brought on by the evil elitists of the world. No government entity is trust worthy and their deceit to conquer the will of man moves on. A slow boiling pot of water with a frog in it (so not to shock the system but deceive it until it dies). We the citizens of the world are the frogs, maybe if we give in to their diabolical plan we will be spared. We are to defy the forces of evil ' not play into their evil tactics. God is the answer, God is the truth, and God is the only way. The governments of the world have been bought into believing the very lies that they spin on us (The citizen). The plan "A one world order" if you can not see this happening by now then it's time to get your head out of the sand. Satan knows those who aren't seeking the truth ( not opening the bible) and those are the easiest to deceive into back turning. It's time to repent my brothers and sisters. We Christians should be a force to be reckoned with! We are Gods army! Don't be silenced out of fear. We are those who will be persecuted for the name of God! Stand up and be counted!
It's time folks, to fight the good fight .
May God bless you all.

Yes, I believe that Daniel predicted 2500 years ago that there would be a 4th empire on earth, the Roman Empire. He described it as a ferocious, terrible Beast. And this would be the last great threat to God's Kingdom on earth. The Roman Empire put Jesus and many of his disciples to death. But the Empire eventually capitulated to Christianity and in fact became a de facto Christian Empire.
It wasn't, however, a good Empire, and it fell in some respects. That is, the city of Rome fell in the West, while in the East, the Eastern Branch of the Empire remained until 1453. Europe never lost its imperial culture and tradition, however, and evolved into a "Holy Roman Empire." European Civilization and Western Values continued in this vein.
Jesus said that the Kingdom that had been given to the Israeli nation would be given to another nation, worthy of it. That "nation" was the Roman Nation. It became the home of Catholicism, and of a great many varieties of Christianity.
But according to Daniel, this "4th Kingdom," or "Beast," would ultimately return to its "Beast" status, and be reunited in a confederation of 10 nations under the leadership of the Man of Sin, the Antichrist.
This is what I believe you're identifying as the trend towards "One World Govt." It was foretold by Daniel millennia ago. And its importance is illustrated by that fact that it was foretold so long ago for just this period of time! It is the last effort, by Satan, to destroy the Kingdom of God. By trying to turn Christianity into apostasy, just as Antiochus 4 did so long ago with Israel, Satan hopes to uproot God's Kingdom from among men and nations.
I don't think we can resist this inevitable development. But I think we can stick by our Christian testimony and moral standards. We can be faithful unto the end. Encouraging one another can only help. God will remain with us in our testimony, giving us strength, help, and guidance. Take care!

Good question. I'm older and grew up in the Cold War between the U.S. and the Soviet Union. I lived under the threat of M.A.D--Mutual Assured Destruction. Neither power initiated an atomic war, because both countries would have been wiped out. With this in mind, I thought about survival in a period of nuclear war. I discovered, by reading, that there were Christians who were very knowledgeable about surviving a nuclear war. I thought about a bomb shelter, and I thought about locating with a mountain between me and a major military base nearby--the base was a major nuclear target. I learned a lot about survivalism, and enjoyed the whole idea of self-sufficiency. And I've practiced some of these things. But the only real security is in finding your path in God. Going down whatever path He takes you, and being content with that, has the assurance that the strongest force in the universe is behind you. Nothing can stop you from reaching your goal, except your own tendency towards self-destruction. There are lots of wise things you can do in your life, to protect the path that God has called you to. Some things are simply fun, enjoyable things you may like to do. The necessary things are the things God wants you to do. But the things God wants from you aren't always the glorified jobs that people see on a stage, or in a movie. Sometimes it's just being a witness to the angels that you're faithful to God, and willing to show God's love to everyone you meet. It's a big job, and we're all called to that. That's where your security is. Unless God calls you to some dangerous spot in the world, pick the safest spot in the world! I personally believe the Antichrist will be based in Europe. But I believe elements of totalitarian control are already creeping into Western society. Some Christians are bigger than life, and can't avoid being targets. Others may be able to keep their heads low, and avoid bullets from those dominated by wicked spirits. Just stay away from the wicked, as much as you can. You can't always do that, though. Then you have to pray for wisdom. That's my advice, for what it's worth!

randyGreat response! My thoughts are to spread the gospel of Jesus Christ and be loving and compassionate to others? Stay the course. I'm not afraid of going to heaven so I can't be threatened with death. I believe Christians have been to silent and need to speak up loud and clear against the evil. I'm not sure about why an enemy would want to destroy a country they plan to take. Nuclear war would not benefit either side. The enemy is already amongst us we let this happen to ourselves over the years. Now we must cling to God for safety to give us strength. A storm is brewing and Jesus will see us through it.

Totally with you, brother! If we can obtain a crowd of like-minded individuals, I think God will still do great things for us. I know that we can't stop the inexorable march towards prophetic fulfillment of the Antichrist and of judgments coming from God upon the nations. But neither can our cause be stopped, preparing the way for God's eternal Kingdom right here on the earth.
