THE GATHERING OF THE NATIONS

Rev. Bertrand L. Comparet

 

   Among the forces which guide International policies and rule the nations of the world, significant changes have occurred within the lifetime of this generation ‑‑‑changes too vast and significance to escape the notice of God.  Among the most evident of these is the strong movement to bind all the nat­ions into one organization, the United Nations, so that one group of men may be the undisputed masters of all the world, ruling it with irresistible force in their own interests and crushing any who would oppose them.  The politicians give us good reason to fear their bad judgment, at least if not always their motives; but this is only the surface ‑‑‑and what would we find if we were able to uncover those who are the real masters over many politi­cians, and rule out of the shadows?

    We have seen the United Nations in action ; we have seen it utterly impotent for good, but powerful enough for evil.  And we see the constant efforts ‑‑‑even on the part of some Americans ‑‑‑to ext­end this power over us, so that we may become a helpless pawn in the power of the nations which envy and hate us.  God pity and save this nation, in­deed, if the "one worlders" have their way!

   Has God overlooked this remarkable phenomenon?  No, Indeed!  Nothing important escapes His foreknowledge.  The Bible contains many prophecies which deal with this organization: and none of them are favorable to it.  I know that this fact will arouse the bitter hatred of many people who con­sider themselves well meaning: they think that they and their kind can be­come the masters of the world through this organization, and then compel everyone to obey them; and they consider themselves so wise and good that they feel sure that this will be for the best interests of the world.  They talk glibly of peace, and of the nations 'beating their swords into plow­shares"‑‑‑forgetting that God Himself has told us that this can only be accomplished under the personal and direct rule of Jesus Christ, not under  the leaders of  nations com­pelled to serve the Afro‑Asian Bloc's hatred of White civilization.

    Why does God permit the nations to gather together into this huge anti-Christian organization, in which the name of Jesus Christ cannot be mention­ed, and whose only concession to any God is the big stone idol of the pagan god Zeus standing In the lobby? Let's see what the Bible says about it.  We are not entering a period of judgment, in which the world wide evil of these days must bring on its own consequences.  Accordingly, we find the explanation, starting in Zephaniah 3:8, saying "Therefore, wait ye upon Me, saith the Lord, until the day that I rise up to the prey for My determin­ation‑is to gather the nations, that I may assemble my kingdom to pour OUT UPON THEM MINE INDIGNATION, EVEN ALL MY FIERCE ANGER: For all the earth shall be devoured in the fire of My zeal. This gathering of the nations is not for any good, as the past has consistently proven.  Their policies are directed by those who plan world Marxism and Zionism; and in the more recent years, their desire to destroy White civilization on the pretext of currying favor with the Afro‑Asian Bloc can no longer be concealed.

   God's mercy has allowed the nations many years for repentance, but to no avail.  Their evil policies have led the world into the trap which now faces all nations.  Truly, as Hosea 10:13 says, "Ye have plowed wickedness, ye have reaped iniquity; ye have eaten the fruit of lies."

   This confederacy of nations called the "United Nations" (when they are not united in anything but a desire to steal from the American taxpayer) was doomed before it started. God foresaw the evil motives of the poli­ticians who organize it and those who have governed it ever since; and in Isaiah 8:4‑14 God proclaimed its failure: "Associate yourselves, 0 ye people, and ye shall be broken In pieces; and give ear, all ye of far countries: gird yourselves, and ye shall be broken in pieces; * * * Take counsel together, and it shall come to naught; speak the word, and it shall not stand. * * For the Lord spake thus to me, with a strong hand, and instr­ucted me that I should not walk in the way of this people, saying, 'Say ye not "A Confederacy" to all them to whom this people say "A confederacy"; neither fear ye their fear, nor be afraid. Sanctify the Lord of hosts Himself, and let Him be your dread.  And He shall be for a sanctuary.'"

    The paths of truth and justice are plain: God's word is clear and emphatic; but honesty and loyalty won't buy the votes of "Minority Groups" which are hostile to our nation, our race, our religion and our way of life.  The politicians and diplomats talk of "the complexity of  the problems confronting them"; but it is only the difficulty of getting the support of rapacious groups with conflicting purposes, doing some evil to gain the support of this one, mote evil to gain the support of another.  Solving their tricky problems is necessary principally, as the prophet Micah says, "That they may do evil with both hands earnestly." (Micah 7:3)  Let them only adopt a new policy: put first the interests of our nation which has entrusted them with power, be loyal to the God who gave us the greatness which all the world envies, follow His clear commandments; and their difficulties and troubles will vanish, and our nation will re­gain the honor and respect it once had.

   Continuance of the present policy of subordinating all national interests to the United Nations ‑‑‑or, worse yet, to those nations in it which have the least civilization and the lowest standards‑‑‑leads us in­evitably to the wars in many parts of the earth which today we see in the making.  It is for the purposes which produce these wars that the nations have gathered together in the United Nations.  Therefore Isaiah 13:4,11 says: "The noise of a multitude in the mountains, like of a great people; a tumultuous noise of the kingdoms of nations gathered together: the Lord of hosts mustereth the host for battle. * * And I will punish the world for their evil, and the wicked for their Iniquity; and I will cause the arrogance of the proud to cease, and will lay low the haughti­ness of the terrible."  And Jeremiah 25, 32‑33 adds to the picture: "Thus saith the Lord of hosts: Behold, evil shall go forth from nation to nation, and a great whirlwind shall be raised up from the coasts of the earth.  And those slain by the Lord shall be at that day from one end of the earth even unto the other end of the earth."

   Honestly review the events of the last few years: what has come out of the United Nations except that "evil shall go forth from nation to nation"?  They have abandoned half of Europe to slavery under Asiatic Marxism; even our own nation was guilty of treacherous encouragement to the people of Hungary and Cuba to revolt against their Red masters‑‑­encouragement enough to get them to come out in the open and identify
