One of the most
mind-boggling sections in Tamara Hartzell's new online book
In the Name of Purpose:
Sacrificing Truth at the Altar of Unity is Chapter 16. It is a
must-read for anyone trying to understand Rick Warren's grandiose Global
P.E.A.C.E. Plan:
“Together as ONE We
Can Change the World”
On June 3, 2005, Rick Warren announced his support of “The ONE
Campaign: To Make Poverty History” in an e-mail titled, “Will You
Join Me?” In it, he acknowledged that this Campaign has been
“endorsed by a wide coalition of folks from all across the faith and
political spectrum” (emphasis added). He also explained how he was
joining with “U.S. Faith Leaders” in sending a letter to President
Bush to lobby him to fight global poverty at the G8 Summit this past
July. He and the other Faith Leaders included the following
statements in their letter to Bush:
“Americans are uniting as ONE across political and religious divides
to support action to overcome the emergency of global AIDS and
extreme poverty.”
“Together as ONE, we can Make Poverty History this July.”1
Rick Warren also encouraged
his readers to visit the website of The ONE Campaign, which has boldly
declared:
“Together as ONE we can
change the world.”2
In support of The ONE
Campaign, on July 2, 2005 Rick Warren attended the Live 8 Concert in
Philadelphia, of which he was reportedly made “official pastor.”3
In covering this event, Forbes reported:
“Prior to the concert,
Warren joined One organizers in a rally on the steps behind the
Philadelphia Art Museum to encourage young volunteers.
“‘Because you are involved in the One Campaign, you are interested
in change,’ he said. ‘If you are serious about change, you need to
do two things. First, focus on vision, not need; call out the
greatness in people, not their guilt. Secondly, don’t tell it like
it is, but rather like it could be, should be, and may be.
“‘We don’t want people to die of poverty or diseases for which we
already have cures, because God loves them.’ Warren continued. I
believe with all my heart we can do this - and I believe you are the
generation to do it.’ Pastor Warren was joined on the platform by
Pastor Herb Lusk, with whom he is partnering on the Purpose Driven
‘Stand for Africa’ campaign.
“‘I was in Memphis, Tennessee in 1968 when the voice of Martin
Luther King was silenced - it was the darkest day of my life.’
Pastor Lusk said. ‘But I look at Bono, Rick Warren, the One
movement, and I realize that voice is still alive.’
“‘I don’t know all the statistics -- I’m just a country preacher -
but I do know there is one Lord, one faith, one baptism, one God,
and one Father who is in us and above us all - and there is the One
campaign.’” [!] (Emphasis added)4
The
U.N.’s Goals: Uniting the World as ONE
The ONE Campaign consists of
a growing number of partners that either directly or indirectly support
strengthening the United Nations and fulfilling its goals. In fact, the
following is the Campaign’s answer to the question, “How does ONE link
to international agreements to fight poverty?”:
“ONE links directly to
the international effort to achieve the Millennium Development
Goals. 1% more of the US federal budget would help save millions of
lives and be a major commitment towards achieving the
internationally agreed upon United Nations Millennium Development
Goals.” (Emphasis added)5
In their letter to President
Bush, Rick Warren and the U.S. Faith Leaders, in accordance with this
purpose of The ONE Campaign, asked him to give “just ONE percent more of
the US budget.”6
They did so seemingly without any regard for the far-reaching
ramifications of strengthening the United Nations and its goals.
The U.N.’s Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) are uniting the world and
its religions (faiths) in transcendent common purpose. These goals are
the international development goals in the U.N.’s Millennium
Declaration, a Resolution adopted by the General Assembly on September
8, 2000. This Resolution declares the United Nations and its Charter to
be “indispensable foundations of a more peaceful, prosperous and just
world.” This Resolution also explicitly upholds Agenda 21, the Kyoto
Protocol, the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, and the Convention
on the Rights of the Child, among other destructive U.N. agendas.7
This Resolution has been adopted by all United Nations Member States,8
and now it is also being supported by today’s Christianity and other
religions via its MDGs.
The framework is all coming together for the U.N.’s ultimate goal of
uniting the world as ONE under its control. Its comprehensive
Resolution, which the world has embraced, also contains the following
statements (emphasis added):
“We are determined to
establish a just and lasting peace all over the world in accordance
with the purposes and principles of the Charter.”
“As the most universal and most representative organization in the
world, the United Nations must play the central role.”
“We will spare no effort to make the United Nations a more effective
instrument for pursuing all of these priorities …”
“We solemnly reaffirm, on this historic occasion, that the United
Nations is the indispensable common house of the entire human
family, through which we will seek to realize our universal
aspirations for peace, cooperation and development. We therefore
pledge our unstinting support for these common objectives and our
determination to achieve them.”9
On the U.N.’s website
directly underneath the heading, “Charter of the United Nations,” the
belief is upheld that unity can change the world:
“We the Peoples of the
United Nations … United for a Better World.” (Ellipsis dots in the
original)10
Only on the very surface do
the U.N.’s goals appear noble and compassionate. These eight MDGs have
much in common with the giants of Rick Warren’s Global PEACE Plan, such
as fighting poverty, hunger, disease, and lack of education.11
Yet underlying the seemingly compassionate surface is a massive
networking of purposes, principles, and control interweaving throughout
every aspect of society that seeks to draw all into the new world order.
This new world order will culminate in Satan’s global government—a Beast
that will fulfill Satan’s Dream, Vision, and Plan in its devouring of
the whole world (e.g., see Revelation 13 and Daniel 7:7-8, 21, 23-25).
It will succeed by using the Angel of light’s message and works of
counterfeit “light” and “peace” to deceive, assimilate, and unite those
who refuse to love God’s absolute truth. Those who refuse to compromise
the truth and cooperate with its works of darkness will be purged from
the planet.
At this time, the U.N. is the most prominent organization behind Satan’s
Plan for a global government. Skeptics have pointed out that the U.N.
has no teeth—i.e., no power to enforce its laws. Satan himself is going
to be the teeth in his global government through his coming Antichrist,
regarding whom Scripture says “the dragon gave him his power, and his
seat, and great authority” (Revelation 13:2).
Incidentally, the U.N. has even been referred to as “the body of Christ”
by the world-renowned, U.N.-adored Robert Muller, who personifies the
(New Age) New Spirituality beliefs and goals of the U.N.12
When fully implemented, the U.N.’s agendas will hold dire consequences
for true believers in the Lord Jesus Christ.
Regarding the comprehensiveness of its Resolution that has already been
adopted by the world, even U.N. Secretary-General Kofi Annan has
admitted:
“The Adoption of the
Millennium Development Goals, drawn from the United Nations
Millennium Declaration, was a seminal event in the history of the
United Nations. It constituted an unprecedented promise by world
leaders to address, as a single package, peace, security,
development, human rights and fundamental freedoms.” (Emphasis
added)13
Nevertheless, a growing
number of Christian organizations have blindly joined the world in
backing the U.N. and its goals, such as directly or through The ONE
Campaign. Likewise, Rick Warren’s P.E.A.C.E. Plan “coordinated its early
efforts with United Nations and other relief agencies,” according to
The Philadelphia Inquirer.14
Support for the U.N. is global.
