November 5, 2018 (American Thinker) In the 1960s, an informed but naïve undergraduate, I was walking across the campus of the University of Pennsylvania with the Chairman of the Chemistry Department, Prof. Charles C. Price. He told me that he was president of the United World Federalists, and asked if I knew what that organization was. When I said that I did not, he replied that they believed in a one-world government that would grow out of the United Nations. I was nonplussed as I had never heard anyone suggest that idea before. To me, the United Nations was a benevolent organization dedicated to pressuring the world community in the direction of peace, and to operating charitable programs to help the struggling, impoverished peoples of the world. I imagined the UN as a kind of United Way on a worldwide scale.
How would Prof. Price's vision of a new world government emerge? Although there was a socialistic thread in its founding document, the United Nations was formed based on a vision of human rights presented in the "Universal Declaration of Human Rights" (UDHR) which placed the concept of rights at the forefront for the progress of the world body. And rights are the mainstay for uplifting human freedom and the dignity of the individual. The UDHR document followed many amazing documents that presented rights as the central concept of the post-feudal world: the English Declaration (or Bill) of Rights of 1689, the U.S. Declaration of Independence with its important and forceful assertion of inalienable natural rights, the powerful U.S. Bill of Rights enacted in 1791, and the French Declaration of the Rights of Man and the Citizen (1789).
The word "rights" appears in almost every sentence of the 1869-word UN document. The document is literally obsessed with rights, and one must assume they are likewise obsessed with the rights successes as manifested in the United Kingdom, the U.S., and France. However, there are some deviations from the rights usage we are all familiar with. In Article 3, Instead of the inalienable rights of "life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness" found in our Declaration of Independence, the UN declares everyone's right to "life, liberty and security of person." Are they implying that security will bring happiness? Or are they implying that happiness is too ephemeral a value, and too Western? Perhaps more mundane survival goals are needed by most of the world.
The US really needs to leave the UN behind. We need to get out permanently. And soon.
I have a hard time remembering a time when being in the UN was a good thing for the US.
Man not again with that Krazy “Rapture talk”! /s
IMHO Bro, it cannot happen soon enough.
I’d love to get it out — but the spiritual support needed for that kind of brassy evangelism will be immense. No other way to get it past Satan.
The wild idea I pray for: let us have such a devastatingly thorough, radical repentance and return to our Creator that when He takes all His believers out, there would be nothing but an empty landscape where the United States of America used to be.
We’re talking about the same thing.
A seeding with the elect has to be part of this. It means praying to our Lord for something He does from the foundation of the world. Awe filling, staggering, but... if it could happen in Scotland it could happen here. Who will be our John Knox?
And whoever it is... imagine what it would be like to meet that evangelist or those evangelists in heaven. Of course none hold a candle to Jesus. But God places whom He wills, at the same time as carrying out His most extraordinary love.
Maybe about three years.
Yep. About 3.5 x 360 days.
They can send gifts to one another, when the Two Witnesses are dead. For 3 and one-half days. It will be quite the liberal party.
They’ll be able to look in on the Live Cam from Jerusalem on some street, laughing and slapping each other on the back over the 2 dead bodies.
Uh oh.....what’s that?......
Amen.

No, I’m saying that the 70th Sabbath began in the fall of 2017.
Certainly you recognize how events are shaping up?
There are no “Jewish years,” nor are Biblical years 360 days.
Biblical months begin at each new moon, and Biblical years begin at the new moon when the barley is “Aviv.” That means that the nomber of months in any year is variable “agriculturally.”
Judaism is not the faith described in Torah. It is a man made faith created by the Pharisees, just as “Christianity” is a man made faith created by Eusebius to please Constantine.
The true faith of Yeshua is pure Torah, as the apostles demonstrated in the Acts, and in their epistles.
John’s first epistle is the written guide to Yeshua’s narrow path to eternal life.
.
I can name a few: Failing to win the Korean War, doing nothing to stop genocide in Rwanda, Oil for Food scandal shenanigans, and raping refugees.
.
The birth of Yeshua is what started the ‘clock.’
Beginning with Shavuot just prior to Yeshua’s birth at Succot, a continuous series of Jubilees controls these events, the Reformation being one of them, along with all the events surrounding Jerusalem that fall on years that end with 7.
The 70th Sabbath began on the day of Trumpets in 2017, and will end at Trumpets in 2024.
It will not be a rapture as imagined, but a “changing” as described in John chapter 3. (being born again as a specially created immortal Son of Yehova)

“Many people on this forum, posting today actively worked to help bring this about”
Seriously? Posting today? I don’t get it.
There, fixed it.
JESUS Himself is the path.
The law was put in charge to lead us to Christ, to show us that we could not meet God's holy standard and bring us to HIMSELF so that we might be forgiven, not so we could do works of the law.
As another FReeper astutely put, Jesus came to change who we are, not what we do.
Colossians 1: 9-14
9 For this reason, since the day we heard about you, we have not stopped praying for you. We continually ask God to fill you with the knowledge of his will through all the wisdom and understanding that the Spirit gives, 10 so that you may live a life worthy of the Lord and please him in every way: bearing fruit in every good work, growing in the knowledge of God, 11 being strengthened with all power according to his glorious might so that you may have great endurance and patience, 12 and giving joyful thanks to the Father, who has qualified you to share in the inheritance of his holy people in the kingdom of light. 13 For he has rescued us from the dominion of darkness and brought us into the kingdom of the Son he loves, 14 in whom we have redemption, the forgiveness of sins.
Thank you for that.
Colossians is indeed a gem.
Thank you for your response.
