(1) Everyone has the right to a
nationality.
(2)

Everyone has the right of freedom of thought, conscience and
religion; this right includes freedom to change his religion or belief, and
freedom, either alone or in community with others and in public or private, to

So how come the UN remains
silent when the Muslim countries execute people for leaving Islam?
Article 19:
Everyone has the right to freedom of opinion and
expression; this right includes freedom to hold opinions without interference
and to seek, receive and impart information and ideas through any media and
regardless of frontiers.
Again, the UN
remains silent when the Communist government suppresses their people from
access information on the internet.
Article 20:
(1)
Everyone has the right to freedom of peaceful assembly and association.
(2)
No one may be compelled to belong to an association.

(2) Motherhood and
childhood are entitled to special care and assistance. All children, whether
born in or out of wedlock, shall enjoy the same social protection.
Article 26:
(1) Everyone has
the right to education. Education shall be free, at least in the elementary
and fundamental stages. Elementary education shall be compulsory. Technical
and professional education shall be made generally available and higher
education shall be equally accessible to all on the basis of merit.
*(This is where the government of the United
States most likely gets the notion that all illegal immigrants in this country
are entitled to free education at the expense of the American taxpayer,
even though American citizens are not entitled to higher education if they
cannot afford it).
(2)
Education shall be directed to the full development of the human
personality and to the strengthening of respect for human rights and

Article 27:

Article 28:
Everyone is entitled to a social and international order in which
the rights and freedoms set forth in this Declaration can be fully realized.
Article 29:
(1) Everyone has
duties to the community in which alone the free and full development of his

(2) In the
exercise of his rights and freedoms, everyone shall be subject only to such
limitations as are determined by law* solely for the purpose of securing
due recognition and respect for the rights and freedoms of others and of
meeting the just requirements of morality, public order and the general
welfare in democratic society (in other
words, our freedoms are enjoyed only in so far as the United Nations says so,
and may be limited or done away with at anytime they deem fit. See #3 below).
(3)
These rights and freedoms may in no case be exercised contrary to the
purposes and principles of the United Nations.
Article 30.
Nothing in this Declaration may be interpreted as implying for any
State, group or person any right to engage in any activity or to perform any
act aimed at the destruction of any of the rights and freedoms set forth
herein.
“To achieve One World
Government it is necessary to remove from the minds of men their individualism,
their loyalty to family traditions and national identification.
”
Brock Chisholm,
while director of the UN World Health Organization.
We cannot deny the true
nature of the United Nations, especially when the truth comes right from the
mouths of those in the UN.
The following statement
came from Kofi Annan, the Secretary General of the United Nations:
“With the forces
of globalization on the rise and the interdependence of the world’s people
growing, citizens of the nation states must act also as global citizens with a
major role accruing to the United Nations in the effort to reach truly
multilateral decisions.”
Annan went on to say:
“Citizens need to think and act globally so as to influence global decisions.
And that means that the United Nations, in order to play its part, must live up
to the first words of its Charter, ‘WE THE PEOPLES’.”
It is very plain to see that the UN wants us to
relinquish our national sovereignty and independence and become citizens of a
One World Government, and to think that we were told that the UN was formed to
be a peace-keeping organization. I don’t know of any situation where the UN has
kept the peace, do you? Instead, they have involved themselves, more and more,
into our private lives. UN plans also call for the replacing of all Christian
based religions with a One World Religion based more or less on the Gaia
hypothesis, the paganistic worship of “mother earth”
(the institution of “Earth Day” as a world wide holiday is part of this
effort) having its roots in the Temple of Understanding.
THE MILLENIUM WORLD PEACE SUMMIT OF
RELIGIOUS AND SPIRITUAL LEADERS COMMITMENT TO GLOBAL PEACE
“Humanity stands at a
critical juncture in history, one that calls for strong moral and spiritual
leadership to help set a new direction for society
(can anyone say ‘social manipulation’?).
We, as religious and spiritual leaders, recognize our special responsibility for
the well-being of the human family and peace on earth
(wolves in sheep’s clothing leading their flocks
on the path toward spiritual and physical destruction).
Whereas the United Nations
and the religions of the world have a common concern for human dignity, justice
and peace (oh, really?);
Whereas we accept that men
and women are equal partners in all aspects of life and children are the hope of
the future;
Whereas religions have
contributed to the peace of the world but also have been used to create
divisions and fuel hostilities;
Whereas our world is
plagued by violence, war and destruction, which are sometimes perpetrated by in
the name of religion;
Whereas armed conflict is a
dire tragedy for the human lives ruined and lost, for the larger living world,
and for the future of our religious and spiritual traditions;
Whereas no individual,
group or nation can any longer live as an isolated microcosm in our
interdependent world, but rather all must realize that our every action has an
impact on others and the emerging global community;
Whereas in an
interdependent world, peace requires agreement on fundamental ethical values
(what in God’s name is ethical about abortion,
euthanasia, same-sex marriage, etc.?);
Whereas there can be no
real peace until all groups and communities acknowledge the cultural and
religious diversity of the human family in a spirit of mutual respect and
understanding;
Whereas building peace
requires an attitude of reverence for life
(how do you teach a reverence for life when you are, at the same time,
advocating the right to abortion and the right to euthanasia?),
freedom and justice, the eradication of poverty
(they actually mean the eradication of the perception of poverty, through the
redistribution of wealth, making everybody poor, except for a select few),
and the protection of the environment for present and future generations;
Whereas a true culture of
peace must be founded upon the cultivation of the inner dimension of peace,
which is the heritage of the religious and spiritual traditions;
Whereas religious and
spiritual traditions are a core source of the realization of a better life for
the human family and all life on earth.
In light of the above, and
with a view to discharging our duty to the human family, we declare our
commitment and determination:
1)1)
To collaborate with the United Nations and all men and women of good will
locally, regionally and globally in the pursuit of peace in all its dimensions;
2) To lead humanity by word
and deed in a renewed commitment to ethical and spiritual values, which include
a deep sense of respect for all life and for each person’s inherent dignity and
right to live in a world free from violence;
3) To manage and resolve,
non-violently, the conflicts generated by religious and ethnic differences, and
to condemn all violence committed in the name of religion while seeking to
remove the roots of the violence
(so, I suppose violence would end if we all just embrace Satan?);
4) To appeal to all religious
communities and ethnic and national groups to respect the right to freedom of
religion, to seek reconciliation, and to engage in mutual forgiveness and
healing;
5) To awaken in all individuals
and communities a sense of shared responsibility for the well being of the human
family as a whole, and a recognition that all human beings, regardless of
religion, race, gender and ethnic origin, have the right to education, health
care, and an opportunity to achieve a secure and sustainable livelihood;
6) To promote equitable
distribution of wealth (this is
a socialistic/communistic idea of taking money from those who have earned it and
giving it to those who have not)
within nations and among nations, eradicating poverty and reversing the
current trend toward a widening gap between rich and poor
(again, the old failed communist idea of making
everyone poor, while a select few live the good life, mainly those who are in
the ruling class);
7) To educate our communities
about the urgent need to care for the earth’s ecological systems and all forms
of life and to support efforts to make environmental protection and restoration
integral to all development planning and activity
(this will involve the “re-wilding of vast urban and sub-urban
areas, as well as culling a major
portion of the human race…. More about this later
[Apostle1.com's Editorial Note: a portion of the State of New Mexico,
primarily Luna County, is affected by this 'Agenda 21']);
8) To develop and promote a
global reforestation campaign as a concrete and practical means for
environmental restoration, calling upon others to join us in regional tree
planting programs;
9) To join with the United
Nations in the call for all nation states to work for the universal abolition of
nuclear weapons and other weapons of mass destruction for the safety and
security of life on this planet;
10) To combat those commercial
practices and applications of technology that degrades the environment and the
quality of human life;
11) To practice and promote in
our communities the values of the inner dimensions of peace, including
especially study, prayer and meditation, a sense of the sacred, humility, love,
compassion, tolerance and a spirit of service, which are fundamental.
“We as
spiritual and religious leaders pledge our commitment to work together to
promote the inner and outer conditions that foster peace and the non-violent
management and resolution of conflict. We appeal to the followers of all
religious traditions and to the human community as a whole to cooperate in
building peaceful societies, to seek mutual understanding through dialogue where
there are differences, to refrain from violence, to practice compassion, and to
uphold the dignity of all life.”
Bawa Jain,
Secretary General of the Millennium World Peace Summit of Religious and
Spiritual Leaders
In 1998, in a speech given to a group of
religious leaders, during a week-long celebration of the founding of the United
Nations, Kofi Annan made the following statement:
“We
(meaning the UN)
are setting up a One World Church to which all
are welcome, including the Christians, but they MUST be willing to give up their
belief that Jesus Christ is the only way to heaven
(in other words, we Christians are to
ignore one of the very teachings of Jesus Himself).
If they are not willing, or refuse to do so, they will
HAVE to be dealt with.”
That statement should be very troubling and
frightening to all TRUE believers in Jesus Christ!
“The state of your world has been reduced by
immorality. The state of your world is capitulating now to all of the forces of
the octopus that will seek to bring about a One World Religion and a One World
Government under a supreme dictator of EVIL.”
Our Lady of the Roses, March 18, 1978
According to an INSIGHT magazine report in
2000, the following was stated:
“Bawa Jain,
Secretary General of the United Nations Millennium Peace Summit, says he thinks
‘all
religions and spiritualists, as well as assorted witch doctors, shamans and
medicine men draw their wisdom from the same source’.
But he applauds efforts to outlaw proselytizing since it matters little whether
one worships a downed World War II airplane with a cargo cult, is a
snake-handling Baptist or a Roman Catholic
(gee, I wonder if
Jesus knows
this?). That view has been met
with strict opposition from the Vatican
(at least the Vatican did something right)
and mainline Protestants, who oppose the notion that all
religions are equal
(I doubt that Pope John Paul II still felt
that way, since he allowed a statue of Buddha to be placed top of the
Tabernacle on the main altar of St. Peters, during a religious ceremony with the
Dalai Lama)
Hosting a United Nations Millennium Peace
Summit of Religious and Spiritual Leaders
(the same one at which Kofi Annan made his frightening statements),
Jain told an international meeting of 1,000 delegates that religions need to
accept the validity of all beliefs to attain world peace.
The summit, the first of its kind to be
sponsored by the United Nations, was held in New York City, August 28-31, 1998,
just before political leaders gathered for the United Nations Millennium
Assembly. The timing was perfect, says Jain, as it allowed religious leaders to
update their political counterparts on how to usher in the peace of the New
World Order through religious universalism.
“The leaders of your
country and the rulers of your world are faster and faster plunging forward,
bringing in the reign of the evil one whom you will know as the Antichrist of
the One World Government. The plan for his rule has been set for many years.”
Our Lady of
the Roses, August 14,1974
Representatives of all religious faiths from
some 50 countries have held regular meetings since 1995 for the purpose of
creating a one global religion according to a United Religions Initiative.
During their four-year history, URI has
sponsored numerous global events, six regional conferences and three global
summits in San Francisco (one of the most Godless
cities in the United States) 1996 – 1998.
Critics of the initiative question the
rationale for the adoption of such a globalized religion and question what
“entity” -- taken from Christianity or another faith – the religion will choose
to sanctify. Based on URI’s published
statements that entity appears to be focused more on earthly “spirits” than on
God or Jesus Christ.
In Part B; I will continue with
the
One
World Government and One World Religion
and get into the
One World Banking
System.
