Riding the Globalization Tsunami

This document deals with today’s global socio-economic-political crisis resulting from globalization. Though we acknowledge that we do not have all the answers, we contest that God has all the answers and he will reveal it to us in due time with a Kingdom Now mandate.

Global (Soft-Paternalistic) Federal

Preamble

“Globalization is a process by which the people of the world are unified into a single society and function together. This process is a combination of economic, technological, socio-cultural and political forces. Globalization, since World War II, is largely the result of planning by politicians” (Wikipedia). However, the very same ones, who preach about breaking down borders that are hampering trade, are the ones building walls curtailing immigration and outsourcing. So not all are winning in this process! Tiziana Terranova observes that globalization has brought a culture of "free labour." In a digital sense, it is where the individual (contributing capital) exploits and eventually "exhausts the means through which labour can sustain itself." Globalization is subtly undermining especially the labouring states within the global economy. Yes! These are times of global anarchy when “might is right” and subversion through terrorism has become the name of the game. A sky-high ministry of global polity is needed to rein in the global anarchy. While such a ministry is no doubt helpful, it becomes meaningless if God is not preeminent in it. When i say “God,” i am referring here to the all-pervading Spirit. The answer lies in God providing the solution through His representatives, each elected by Him to be an Ambassador for Him here on earth. We cannot have any more of half-hearted believers at the helm of affairs; not even the supposed friends of every god, for in truth they are friends of really no god. What’s more, the democratic system, which pits one voter against the other, as also one minority against the other, is so flawed that the citizenry cannot do business with that best-among-the-worst so-called “honest” bureaucrat, but rather we need him to be a dishonest one, for only then can the citizenry command reporting and accountability from him. In God’s view i believe, these politicians are worse than the golden calf idol of Moses’ times that the people set for themselves with gold got from everyone. Secularism by the same token is a failure and the current global status quo is actually an indictment against it.

April 2006 saw Soft Paternalism emerging as a better alternative to the Allow-to-do (purportedly self-regulating) free market. But of course a worthy Paternal was needed for any sort of Paternalism to work.

Two thousand years ago, our Lord Jesus Christ revealed God to the world, and He Himself became a role model for all mankind by conquering death; something that no one has ever done before. Death could not hold Him down because He did no wrong. Today we in the Church are His representatives and ambassadors. He lives in us, which is our hope of glory and kingdom here and now. The Lord has made us living monuments of His love, so that His love might be shed abroad through us. Therefore, the Church, through her service of love and justice, has the answer to the lawlessness and anarchy today. Billy Kim of the Church in Korea remarked: “The United Nations cannot stop lawlessness in the world. Education cannot stop lawlessness. All the armies in the world cannot stop lawlessness in our society. Only the [transforming] power of the Good News of the Lord Jesus Christ can stop the lawlessness of our world.” So we must proclaim and practice it from the mountain-tops of power as well as on the plains. This entails a sovereign and valid global polity of Christocracy (government of Christ through His Bride) to sustain it with a managed environment, all of which we are here distinguishing as Agape TiE®—The Totally Integrated Environment®.

The Church takes responsibility for the anarchy and the outcry ensued by Globalization!

At the outset, “religion and spirituality are what make us humane,” testifies Dr. Y. S. Rajsekar Reddy, Chief Minister of Andhra Pradesh, India. Therefore a government based on religion ought to succeed for the single global society that globalization has turned us into. Today, the Good News has reached the uttermost ends of the earth, which is the required reach for the visible reign of Christ to come. And globalization could be a “globalization of prosperity,” says Arindam Chaudhuri on his blog. But the globalized nations like the USA and the UK, which are developed and capitalistic have adopted the “laissez faire—license-to-even-sin anarchistic—economic policy with Calvinistic ethic” rather than a paternalistic and engaging economic policy with Arminian ethic. This has left everyone frustrated and has caused the current global anarchy (Ref.: “Ushering-in Christocracy & Global Paternalism,” Skyfeast.org). Now, this globalization wave of tsunamic proportions is subtle. So people require not relief, but regulation and means to ride it!

Should we regulate using morality?

Prime Minister Dr. Manmohan Singh of India acknowledged in late 2008: “Present crisis is due to a failure in regulation. In this age of globalization we have a global economy of sorts. But this global economy is not supported by a global polity to provide effective governance.” Former President Franklin D. Roosevelt of USA admitted: “We have always known that heedless self-interest is bad morals; we now know that it is bad economics.” The 2008 Nobel Laureate Paul Krugman added that the converse is also true: “Good morals are good economics!” So yes, we must regulate using morality.

There is also the Paradoxical Cry of the Terrorist

With terrorism on the rise perpetrated both by guerrilla groups and even states, there is no one to adjudicate on the legitimacy of the use of physical force. No doubt terrorists do their deeds to be noticed by men, but the lone terrorist caught alive after the recent Mumbai attack of 2008, revealed that he did it for money and due to sheer frustration on seeing the poverty of his countrymen. I propose, what is needed is not merely an economic antidote but also a socio-political one at that, quenching everyone’s thirst for divine intervention.

But whose morality gets legislated?

“Macroeconomic difficulties need to be addressed by macroeconomic remedies,” says economist Jagdish Bhagawati. But secular men can provide remedies, if any, at the most for a nation because their broad vision can extend only so far as their country’s borders. Global polity, on the other hand, is in the purview of God alone and not some G-7 or G-20 states, in which case it would only be hegemony. Hence, providing a legitimate and yet viable global polity of morality, falls squarely in the plates of God’s elect.

Moreover, as W.T (Ted) Hind reasons: “Since societies cannot avoid legislating morality, then societies should legislate God’s morality.” So who is this God of the elect whose morality forms the basis for legislation? Thus says the Holy Spirit: “As for God [of the Bible], His way (the morality embodied by Jesus Christ) is perfect; The word of Yahweh is proven/tried [with the life, death, burial and resurrection of Jesus Christ as attested by a cloud of witnesses]; He is a shield to all who trust in Him.”

Jesus, who cried to the Father before His crucifixion, “Yet not as i will but as You will,” kept the spirit of the Law of God, while His contemporaries were wishfully applying the letter to suit their own selfish ends. It follows then that the Law of the indwelling Spirit of Jesus is what needs to be legislated, with the Acts of the Apostles—Chief Apostle being Jesus Christ Himself—becoming the precedent. Therefore emphasis shifts from legislation to the legislating body—the Bride of Jesus Christ—which also does the interpreting.

Vision of Greater Hebron

What is Hebron?

* Historically, it is a mountainous area, inherited by son of Jephunneh who wholeheartedly followed the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob; and also where King David was coronated;

* However, it means an association or church; and

* It is also a regional headquarters in Hyderabad, India of churches planted by Brother Bakht Singh.

Greater Hebron of tomorrow will be a virtual mountain with “living stones” assembled on top of each other, exalting Christ—the Capstone—in the chain of human government, worldwide.[/color][/b]

A critique of various other virtual mountains in my search for a pearl

* The Roman Catholic mountain is unregenerate on account of favoring a kind of salvation by works that are not by faith in the indwelling One who comes to reside in us only after a conversion experience (Ref.: “Why am I Arminian (Muslim-Christian) and not Roman Catholic,” published at Skyfeast.org forum).

* Calvinistic mountains are seen as leveled (Luke 3:5) for favoring a soteriology of conceit; one of individual predestination by unconditional election, rather than corporate predestination of a hypothetical remnant who will abide in Christ till the end even as they bear fruit by faith in the indwelling One (Ref.: False doctrine of “Eternal Security” demolished with the “robot/puppet” argument; “Justification by Faith Alone” argument demolished by the impossibility of crediting both the believer and Christ at the same time with the same righteousness for the same work—published worldwide at StudyLight.org and Skyfeast.org forums).

* The State of Israel is a synagogue of Satan for maintaining their claims of inheritance by birthright through corporate election of Israel; codifying the righteousness of God in terms of their own skewed adherence to the Mosaic Law – a legalism sans faith and humility. Dishonoring the Son, they have dishonored the Father who sent Him and thus ceased to be partakers of the promise. For, “the promises were not and cannot be made effective through sinful man’s keeping of God’s Law” (Ref.: “God's plan for Israel rests within the New-man!” published at Skyfeast.org; “The Wittenberg Door” published at IfAmericansKnew.com).

* Muslim Brotherhood has zeal to do the will of God but blind to the will itself—‘will perish at this rate. Religious pride made them blind to the will, which is to avail mercy that is freely available through the Lord Jesus Christ for the atonement of sin, to satisfy the requirements of a just and sovereign God who cannot just wink at sin for any reason. They may be committing the unpardonable sin, for they reject out of unbelief, the very remedy that can save them (Ref.: Matthew 12:31, The Bible).

* Hindus who have bakthi (agape love and devotion for God the Spirit) are finding the jnana (knowledge) of ParaBrahman that came in the embodiment of Jesus Christ, which is eternal life and are obtaining moksha (salvation) (Ref.: John 17:3; “Hinduism & Christianity: A study” published at TruthUnleashed.org).

* Local mountains of Jesus Christ are in a state of treason for trying to build their own little empires at the expense of the kingdom of God. Coupled with this, the world’s attribution of the leadership of the universal Church to the imperfect Roman pontificate, gave rise to improper structure in her, making it impossible to give “cover” as a hen gives cover to her little ones. Therefore, enemy playing havoc among us (Ref.: “Abomination of Desolation,” published at Skyfeast.org).

Beulah: A Christocratic Global Federal land that will be married to the Lamb of God

A Business Plan has been written for this very purpose (available upon request). Thus says the Spirit of Jesus: “Foxes have holes, the birds of the air have nests but the Son of Man [who is today a body corporate] has no place to rest His head.”

Soft-Paternalistic Global Polity of Christocracy with Arminian ethic because…

• As said earlier, the need arises in view of the failure of the “laissez faire (license-to-even-sin anarchistic) economic policy with Calvinistic Ethic” adopted by capitalistic nations that has left everyone frustrated and caused the current global anarchy;
• In view of the United Nations, World Bank, and IMF being weak and illegitimate institutions because it is the United States and the United Kingdom who gave them the authority in the first place; and
• In view of global governance itself being in the purview of God and His Christ alone.

A viable soft-paternalistic global federal is the basic need of the world-at-large today to ride, regulate, and arbitrate the globalization tsunami. The insignia of the Agape TiE® Ambassador is Agape TiE® (The Totally Integrated Environment®), which is associated with the business, the Church, and the Global Federal in one entity; and under the aegis of which all true Israelites (i.e. those who hear and do God’s will) are harvested, as with a “net” (Matthew 13:47-52), into a corporate embodiment of Jesus Christ, which will be His Bride. The Bride in turn will offer Ministerial Services through Agape TiE® Christian Lifestyle Enablers and expects to orchestrate a higher standard of living, both for the digirati and the common man because the Enablers integrate everyone—literate or not, poor or rich, far or near—into a synergistic economy of Christocracy.

The heavenly Father’s gift to the world today: Soft-Paternalistic Christocracy!

Poor and Developing nations stand to gain economically by ushering-in global polity of Christocracy—the consummation of the salvation of man—because they will finally receive their recompense. Christ is architecting and implementing Christocracy through His Bride. These are of the kingdom-in-dispersion who have been chosen by virtue of their humility—of becoming so small as to die to their self-will on a daily basis, and have entrusted themselves to the Spirit of Jesus of agape love, by letting His will prevail in them. Soft-Paternalistic Christocracy works, unlike anarcho-capitalism, because the world is reconstructed with God’s help, in freewill, from its fallen state, by the Bride’s internal struggle between love & justice of Christ.

Who the Bride is: The Remnant Overcomers (Chosen) having a vital relationship with Christ

We are those, who hold and carry out in practice, the principle that the Lord Jesus Christ is Lord of all, and that His Law should have a Christocracy in the world-at-large. Her authority, as bestowed to her, extends to all nations to make them active adherents for the kingdom (Matt 28:16-20). Creed is at ChurchOfAgapeLove.org.

Special Drawing Rights (SDRs) to nations and even to individuals

I, Caleb, formerly known as Sitaram/Suresh, a convert to Christianity do testify herewith: Worthy is the Lamb (all those in Jesus collectively with due ranks for each) to govern the world through His Bride (that part of Him which is visible on earth for all practical purposes) under Christocracy and render justice to the nations as well as to the individuals! He shall grant SDRs to the nations so they may convert their currencies to ones they desire including into an Agape TiE® Standard, based on judicial deliberations.

Monopoly on the legitimate use of physical force

With the advent of state terrorism and preemptive wars on the rise, including what is attributed to the USA, the actual application of violence may be delegated or permitted exclusively by the Global Federal. This is the reason why the Soft-Paternalistic Christocracy is a socio-economic-political-military antidote and not merely a socio-economic one.

RESULT: A new world order with Justice, Peace, and Wealth

Soft-Paternalistic Christocracy is not communism as it is not questionably egalitarian but a meritocracy, where one is rewarded for exercising his/her S.H.A.P.E. (Spiritual Gifts; Heart; Abilities; Personality; and Experience)—an acronym coined by Rick Warren. If the decentralized structure of Christocracy is to count for anything at all, we need to know if the righteous are seen in the outer-net world as the heirs of the earth, or merely the avant-garde of a new configuration of labor that are not automatically guaranteed elite status.

Nations can vindicate themselves, as the case may be, even at this last moment, before it’s too late and actually subscribe to a potential World Parliament of Christocracy based on Jesus’ Sermon on the Mount. It is also expedient on the part of developed nations to acquiesce. Thus says the Holy Spirit, assuring the nations: “No one can say, ‘Jesus is Lord’ except by Me.” Thus says the Holy Spirit, re-assuring the nations: “The Son of Man is Lord of the Sabbath,” in a sense that He is above the Law and knows when to overrule because He is the Creator of the Law.

Conclusion

It is now everyone’s own lookout to confirm for themselves whom God has already elected. Please contact us at Ambassador(at)AgapeTiE(dot)org to give your support in a few words to the Agape TiE® Ambassador. The giant tsunami of globalization has already devastated many countries and is not about to stop. Hope you will dare to ride the tsunami through subscribing/acquiescing to the empowerment of God’s elect!

Bill Bradford of Good News magazine wrote in the article "The Real Gospel ..."

Quote:

Entering the Kingdom When Jesus came preaching the Kingdom of God, He said it was "at hand" and commanded people to repent and believe the good news about it (Mark 1:14, 15). His kingdom is something we must enter (Mark 10:23, 25). Jesus warned of obstacles that can prevent our entrance into the Kingdom (Matthew 5:20; 19:23-25; Mark 9:47; Luke 18:17; John 3:5). Jesus was at that time inviting people to repent so they could enter the Kingdom of God (Mark 1:15). His parables described what the Kingdom is, when it would come and how a person could enter it, and He clarified the requirements for and obstacles to entering it. When does a person enter the Kingdom of God? Upon conversion, Christians become children of God and heirs of the kingdom (Romans 8:16, 17). But they will not inherit the kingdom until the kingdom comes. Paul explains: "Now this I say, brethren, that flesh and blood cannot inherit the kingdom of God; nor does corruption inherit incorruption. Behold, I tell you a mystery: We shall not all sleep, but we shall all be changed-in a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trumpet. For the trumpet will sound, and the dead will be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed" (1 Corinthians 15:50-52). Many people stop reading after the first four verses of this chapter, thinking they describe the entirety of the gospel Paul preached. But, by continuing to read the chapter, we see clearly that there is much more to the story. Paul goes on to explain more about the resurrection from the dead and entrance into the Kingdom of God. We "inherit," or enter, that kingdom "at the last trumpet" (verse 52), the great blast that signals Christ's return to rule the earth forever (Revelation 11:15). Salvation through Jesus' life, death and resurrection is indeed a part of the gospel message, but it is not exclusively (as many assume) the gospel message. Jesus Christ died, was buried and was resurrected (1 Corinthians 15:1-4) for a reason: so we could have everlasting life in the Kingdom of God (John 3:3, 5, 16). We can accept Jesus' command to repent and believe this gospel message. We can turn to God for forgiveness and reconciliation through Jesus Christ and begin to live by the laws of the Kingdom of God as taught by Jesus Christ. Those who refuse to live by God's holy laws will be refused entrance into the Kingdom of God and eternal life (1 Corinthians 6:9, 10; Galatians 5:19-21; Ephesians 5:5). Entering the Kingdom of God is synonymous with salvation. Thus, without understanding what the Kingdom of God is, we don't understand what salvation is.

That is an awesome insight into the truth. But there is more to it, i believe.

The "last trumpet" that is spoken of i believe, pertains to the voice of any evangelist who finally consummates the new birth of a particular believer, which results in the person following up with a testimony in the waters of Baptism. In other words the last trumpet is perhaps not common to all. As i have written in the Be Born Again! article, baptism is the first resurrection from the dead.

He then actually enters into the kingdom of heaven. Note that i no longer have a mortal body but rather an immortal body. It is a body that is destined for glory as long as i abide in Christ. And since Christ abides in me, it is no longer i who do the living but Christ who lives in me. As Christ works from within me with His love to take full control of me and my environment, the preconditioning in my body to sin begins to recede.

The "tent" that we live in is often mistaken for the"flesh and blood" that Paul talks about, the later of which he says will not inherit the kingdom of God. The flesh and blood refer to anything that is the product of one's own self-righteousness be it status, knowledge, appearance, goods, services, etc, etc.

Now there is a microcosmic last trumpet and also a macrocosmic last trumpet, the later pertaining to the whole world or the remnant from the whole world. In other words all the nations who will listen to the last macrocosmic trumpet and who will frame laws around the will of God.

In the above quote note the underlined phrase: Those who refuse to live by God's holy laws will be refused entrance into the Kingdom of God and eternal life (1 Corinthians 6:9, 10; Galatians 5:19-21; Ephesians 5:5).

The clear implication in light of what i have said about the trumpets is that the Kingdom of God is NOW!

"Those" meaning, individuals, families, organizations, business as well as nations that "do not today live by God's holy laws will be refused entrance into the kingdom of God and eternal life!"
