This is a very short column I wrote in just a few minutes without any reseach or editing, so dont expect much.
World Gov. such has the UN has a negative effect on individual freedom and generally takes a negative view of Christianity. It is my belief that a world government’s main purpose would be to end war and since many in the world community believe the primary cause of war is religion they would most likely either try to abolish religion all together or combine all religions. Either way this is contrary to the view Christianity.
While it is true that Christianity usually prospers under prosecution this does not mean we should support the prosecution of Christianity. And we definitely need to do all we can to stop the combining of Christianity and other religions. This would cause many in the world to be misled and hinder the efforts of Christians to disciple the world.
Not only would a world government be a hindrance to Christianity it would also be extremely hostile to Israel. Currently the UN is allowed to investigate human rights violations in Israel, but none are done in Iran or Syria, because so many nation do not like Israel. Obviously any human rights violations committed by Israel would be one hundred times worse in countries such as Iran, but these countries are not investigated much less punished. The Bible says the Lord will bless those who bless Israel. The United States is one of the last friends Israel has and we need to stand with her against the attacks of world governments such as the UN.
