Chapter Two As we go into the new century I would expect that America would not remain as she is now. I believe that The United States of America will begin to break up. It will almost certainly experience a great loss in world power. This loss of power will be in part because of those who seek a one-world government and are in places of power, moving our nation in that direction. Few folks know that the present administration has already been giving up some of our national sovereignty over mainland American lands. Certain sovereign rights have been given over to the United Nations. The world is becoming increasingly environmentally conscious. Organizations have emerged that are dedicated to saving everything from whales to rainforests. However, there is one international environmental movement with which most Americans are probably not familiar. It's the movement to create biosphere reserves. Under the auspices of the United Nations, environmental activists are using this agenda to subvert private property and national sovereignty. Within the United Nations, biosphere reserves are the brain-child of the U.N. Educational, Scientific, and Cultural Organization (UNESCO), created by Sir Julian Huxley in 1946. UNESCO directs the international Man and Biosphere Programme (MAB), which coordinates the creation and use of biosphere reserves around the world. There are MAB projects in most U.N. member nations. In the United States, we have the U.S. Man and the Biosphere Program (USMAB). USMAB nominates land (or water) sites for "biosphere reserve designation," then UNESCO makes the official "designation" (approval) of the site. Incredibly, Congress plays no role in this process. In fact, the United States is not an official member of UNESCO because President Ronald Reagan ended our official connection with UNESCO in 1984. So the U.S. does not have any say in the way UNESCO programs are run, but we continue to fund several UNESCO programs, including the Man and the Biosphere Programme. In 1995, U.S. contributions to UNESCO alone amounted to a minimum of $5 million -- money that we voluntarily gave. In short, the White House is allowing UNESCO to direct the regulation of private property and violate the rights of citizens in the United States, but no one in the United States has any say in the decisions that UNESCO makes. The foot soldiers -- and often the brains -- behind the biosphere reserve philosophy both here and overseas are the environmental "Green" movement. National organizations like the Sierra Club actively promote MAB. Worldwide organizations like the International Union for the Conservation of Nature (IUCN) serve as official advisors to the United Nations, and you are footing the bill for their "advice." The State Department reports that in 1995, IUCN received $2 million in "voluntary funding" -- tax dollars voluntarily given by our federal government. The Wildlands Project envisions the connection of existing (and future) biosphere reserves by "corridors" 50 miles wide, so that most of what we know today as the "United States" will be taken from humans and returned to nature. The Green revolutionaries call this "rewilding." They believe rewilding is necessary because the "harmonious" existence of all living creatures together is much more important than the principle of private property. Essentially, this is Marxism in new clothes, and the Marxist philosophy of collective land ownership wears many disguises. Unless a revolution occurs in a nation, the subversive removal of private property ownership is always a long-term project. For now, in the United States it is being accomplished through heavy taxation and excessive and intrusive government regulation. Note that another way of saying rewilding is to say repopulate the native animals and put out the unnatural creatures (humans). (refer to web site: http://www.cwfa.org/policypapers/pp_biosphere.html ) One of these biospheres is Champlain-Adirondack Biosphere Reserve (CABR). According to the U.S. Man and the Biosphere Program, CABR is "the largest and most populous biosphere reserve in the United States and the fourth largest in the world. Designated as a biosphere reserve in 1989, its boundaries encompass federal, state, local, and private lands. And CABR includes a "cooperative management arrangement" across the Canadian border. Over 400,000 people inhabit CABR and its "outlying areas." The Core Area of CABR includes New York's Adirondack Park, along with state parks and forests in Vermont. The rest of the biosphere reserve is the Buffer Zone. There are many other such actions going on in the name of national or natural interest. Citizen's private property being regulated by government departments whom Congress seems for the most part to ignore and the present administration urges on. Much of what is going on I could not get into here, but let it be sufficient to say there is very much happening that our forefathers would not have tolerated, citizen's rights being trampled under foot by government bureaucrats. This will cause in the future great trouble in this nation and may end there being a "United States." (I should note here that I do not advocate any violent acts, but sadly expect them.) A second reason I would expect the break up of the United States is do to the fact that this nation founded on Christian principles has been moving away from that foundation. Like Israel of old, when the nation turned from God, then God turned from blessing the nation. The wisdom needed to guide the nation and hold it together, which would have come from God will not be there in America's future. America was raised up as a nation, very much like Israel was raised up. That is, through people dedicated to God, and for the purpose of showing forth to the world the glory of God. If you do not believe that, it is just to bad for you because it is the truth. Fifty-two of the fifty-five signers of the Declaration of Independence were Christians and active members of their churches. When you look at the names of the founders of the American Bible society and the American Track society, and the Philadelphia Bible society you find many of the same names as are found on the Declaration of Independence, and among the framers of the Constitution. George Washington is called the father of our nation. He was an Episcopal, but was very comfortable visiting in Quaker homes and staying overnight. He was a man who believed in Providence and in prayer. We still have many of his prayers which he was in the habit of writing down, almost like letters to God. We have them yet, in his own handwriting. It was he who added to his oath of office the words: "so help me God." He then kissed the Bible. George Washington testified, "The power and goodness of the Almighty were strongly manifested in events of our late glorious revolution, and His kind interposition in our behalf has been no less visible in the establishment of our present equal government." In his Farewell Address, Washington said, "Of all the dispositions and habits which lead to political prosperity, Religion and Morality are indispensable supports .... And let us with caution indulge the supposition that morality can be maintained without religion .... reason and experience both forbid us to expect that national morality can prevail in exclusion of religious principles." Look at the old man, Benjamin Franklin....who was by his own admission a deist....when it came down to real need he found the answer. Congress was having great troubles writing a constitution that could be agreed on and much arguing was on going. Old Ben stood up in that mess and had this to say: "In the beginning of the contest with Britain, when we were sensible of danger, we had daily prayers in this room for Divine protection. Our prayers, Sir, were heard, and they were graciously answered. All of us who were engaged in the struggle must have observed frequent instances of a super-intending Providence in our favor .... And have we now forgotten this powerful Friend? Or do we imagine we no longer need His assistance?" "I have lived, Sir, a long time, and the longer I live, the more convincing proofs I see of this truth: 'that God governs in the affairs of man.' And if a sparrow cannot fall to the ground without His notice, is it probable that an empire can rise without His aid?" "We have been assured, Sir, in the Sacred Writings that except the Lord build the house, they labor in vain that build it. I firmly believe this. I also believe that, without His concurring aid, we shall succeed in this political building no better than the builders of Babel; we shall be divided by our little, partial local interests; our projects will be confounded; and we ourselves shall become a reproach and a byword down to future ages. And what is worse, mankind may hereafter, from this unfortunate instance, despair of establishing government by human wisdom and leave it to chance, war, or conquest." "I therefore beg leave to move that, henceforth, prayers imploring the assistance of Heaven and its blessing on our deliberation be held in this assembly every morning before we proceed to business." The French historian Alexis de Tocqueville spent much time traveling in the United States and made this observation: "It is their mores, then, that make the Americans . . .capable of maintaining the rule of democracy . . . .The importance of mores (above that of law and the influence of geography) is a universal truth to which study and experience continually bring us back. I find it occupies the central position in all my thought; all my ideas come back to it in the end." Speaking of the American people as a whole he wrote: "I do not know whether all Americans have a sincere faith in their religion--for who can search the human heart--but I am certain that they hold it to be indispensable to the maintenance of republican institutions." For the first 300 years of the history of this land our fathers trusted in God. In the last 60 or so years, we as a nation have been in the process of casting Him off, and saying we need Him not. Is it any wonder that we are in so much trouble, or maybe you don't think that we are in trouble?!! A third reason I would expect the break up of the United States is that I do not find it specifically mentioned in any end time prophecies. That means that it will either not be there, (completely destroyed) or that it will no longer exist as we know it. There is a theory that there is in The Book of The Revelation two Babylons. One is religious and located at Rome and the other political and is the seat of Anti-Christ. There is some thought that America could be the later of these two, and rulership of the coming one-world government would be located within the boundaries of present day United States. This makes no difference to my theory that our nation as we know it will no longer exist. This would definitely not be America as we know it today, much less as our forefathers knew it or envisioned it to be. I however do not believe that all of what we now know as the United States would become Babylon. For one thing, in the prophecies that coming Babylon is destroyed in just one day, never to be inhabited again. I would not expect that my God would destroy and make uninhabitable so much land. I believe He created this land for His glory and He will save much of it and destroy only that which is needed to set an example to the generations to come. I would expect that only a small part of the East Coast and maybe a portion of the West Coast would be lost. Maybe it would be just the city of New York, or Washington D.C. or both. Anyway, one thing that I believe is that the United States of America will not be existing as we know it today, in that day when Jesus Christ returns. Want to use your Kindle 2?
