A Global Solution of a Different Kind
To my readers: Sorry for being late, the Internet was being worked on. So, in the future, instead of me boring you with this note. Remember, if there is no blog on at any time, it is either because the Internet is down, I am unable to do one for some reason, or the computer died or I died. Those would be the only reason that I would not any blogs at all. Thank you for your patience and God Bless you all.
The Bible foretells that in the near future, a global government will unite mankind on the basis of unselfishness rather than money or technology. It will be successful because it has the power and the mechanisms for taking global action in behalf of all mankind. Jesus Christ himself focused on this global government when he taught his followers to pray for 'God's Kingdom to come and for God's will to be done on the earth.' -Matthew 6:10.
God's Kingdom, a heavenly government in the hands of Jesus Christ, will exemplify a new global ethic, the same one that Jesus himself taught when on earth. Love of God and neighbor will be guiding principles. (Matthew 22:37-39) Many prophecies in the Bible outline what this new government will do. Regarding it Ruler, Jesus Christ, the Bible promises "He shall judge the poor with justice and defend the humble in the land with equity." (Isaiah 11:4, The New English Bible) The rich and the powerful will not exploit the disadvantaged. Jesus will "feel sorry for the lowly one and the poor one . . .From oppression and from violence he will redeem their soul." -Psalm 72:13, 14.
Environmental problems will be addressed promptly. Instead of creeping desertification, "the desert will rejoice, and flower will bloom in the wastelands." (Isaiah 35:1, Today's English Version) Instead of food shortages, "there will come to be plenty of grain on the earth." -Psalm 72:16.
