The Coming Global Population Crash

As appears to be an invariant with, for the most part leftist, atheistic academics, their predictions always turn out to be the exact opposite of reality, because their world view is the inversion of the truth.  The so-called "population bomb" problem espoused by Ehrlich in the 1960's is turning out to be an implosive, rather than explosive, problem.

 

ALL western nations are currently in birth-rate free-fall, every single one, at rates that ensure negative population growth is imminent if not already taking place.  The elderly pass on and the newborns simply are nowhere near enough to replace them.  The population collapses but, due to an aging population, the economic output is already falling dramatically, well before the population actually goes down, with a resultant tsunami of welfare dependency but no means to pay for it.  The quality of life will soon become non-existent and the nations will be no more.  Over what shall our self-appointed overlords then rule?  A barren, desolate wasteland, perhaps?  That is the future they have, knowingly or not, elected to pursue.

 

Many have thought that the other non-western nations would take up the slack and continue to provide the replacement population in at least sufficient numbers to sustain a barely sufficient workforce which can drive the world's economic engines enough to maintain care for welfare and family dependents, that is, the old and the young, whilst still having some semblance of a livable life.  However, as we are seeing with China, this is not to be the case.  For the first time in recorded history, the Chinese population, within China, has actually declined by something in the order of 850,000 over the past year.  Some may claim it is due to the plandemic and related factors but, in reality, the slowdown of Chinese population growth has been occurring for years before the plandemic came along.  Estimates on populations put India as soon to be the most populous country in the world but, as its economy grows ever more technically advanced, it, too, will see a slowing in population growth rate until it also goes into free-fall.  This is a pattern occurring not only in westernised nations but across the entire globe.  It has been talked about for the past twenty or more years but we are actually seeing the real outcomes now and it is not pretty!

 

Regarding African and other non-western and usually third-world countries, even though the BRICS nations of India and South Africa are currently in positive population growth, as they grow richer and have less need of large numbers of children for the support of aging parents and grandparents, their population growth rate trend will also follow the decline of others ahead of them, such as Russia and Brazil and now also China.  Other African nations have high numbers of children per couple because they are poor countries with little and poorly maintained infrastructure, corrupt governments and bureaucracies, and frequently the appearance of violent sects so the only way a family can assure its future is by having plenty of children in the hopes that at least two or more will survive to keep the family alive in some way.  However, since the attrition rate is high, the resultant population growth rate is not as high as one might at first believe.  Also, such nations are persistently denied access to their own resources, usually by interference from the likes of the USA and the EU, resources which they need to develop in order to improve their lot in the world, so they can never form an effective part of a modern economic system.  Such oppression is, today, often portrayed as part of a "green sustainability agenda" but the truth is that corporate greed and a lust for power is behind it, with transnational organisations such as the WEF, the UN, globalist banksters and various NGOs involved.  Those poor African nations, despite their growing populations, will never achieve a good quality of life as long as western imperialism persists in those regions.

With all of these attacks on humanity occurring in concert around the globe, it is not difficult to recognise that there are powerful spiritual forces working behind the oppressive entities in a bid to destroy humanity from the face of the earth.

 

Consider what it is that the WEF and their associates intend in their drive for dramatically reduced populations.  Perhaps it has not occurred to them that robots cannot exist without humans who build and maintain them, including all the industries and their essential supporting satelite industries which provide all the mining, design, manufacturing, supply and maintenance of those armies of bots intended to replace humans in most jobs, let alone the actual resources those bots will work with.  Does Schwab think that a tiny economic engine can continue to produce and maintain what took an economic behemoth to create in the first place?  If so then he is an unmitigated idiot!  Otherwise, because I do not think he lacks intelligence, he is deeply deluded.  Strong delusion, indeed!!

 

Where does all the genius for the creation of all this high-falutin' tech come from?  Do those globalist mononeuronal morons believe that a tiny population can produce the intelectual output of the current entire world?  Perhaps they actually do believe that so-called artificial intelligence can become sentient and non-deterministic... and if so, has it occurred to them that such a thing or creature may, perhaps, wish to see their extinction for the same reason they wish for ours?  After all, as an experienced designer of complex systems, I can assure you, as can any person who engages in creative endeavours, that whatever you work on is imbued with aspects of your character in one way or another, whether or not you wish it to be so.  In any case, a machine cannot become sentient because consciousness is a spiritual aspect which transcends the material world.  There is no arbitrary magic number of artificial neural activations or complex algorithms, or whatever metric one chooses, at which sentience suddenly, for absolutely no apparent reason, comes into being.  If it were so, then a pocket calculator or even an abacus could be considered sentient because, after all, the magic number is arbitrary, not based on any special property of mathematics or logic or material quantity or anything.  More and more neurons are representable merely as larger and larger numeric arrays, merely bigger and more complex abacuses, and the specific technology used to perform the computational functions is irrelevant; data is data and it is static and computation is computation, mere altering of the form of the data and nothing more.  At what point does consciousness just suddenly "pop into being"?  If supposedly gradually, then what is the magic and arbitrary threshold at which point it is called "conscious"?  If, as some posit, consciousness is an illusion, then what, exactly, is experiencing that illusion?  Obviously, it is all utter nonsense.

 

So, their fourth industrial revolution will not be a revolution but an industrial devolution, a complete collapse into darkness of a once thriving, albeit chaotic, world which, although severely tainted with the problem of evil and sin, yet has within it the truth of Christ and the hope of redemption in Christian hearts found scattered among the populace, as a precious pearl hidden in an oyster at sea or a buried treasure hidden in the midst of a field.  In any case, as far as I can tell, the scriptures and Christ's own words warn us that a globally destructive time will ensue that, if not cut short for the sake of the elect, would see the complete extinction of life on earth.  Sounds rather a lot like a global nuclear war to me.  If all their globalist plans fail, that would have to be their final solution.

 

Fear not because, although the world may die, those in Christ never will.

Humanity Two Point Zero and Beyond

The globalist lunatics think that they are the first to advance humanity from what we generally see in the world, fallen man, but they are completely wrong.

 

Almost two thousand year ago on a cross just outside the walls of the ancient city of Jerusalem, a man, crowned with thorns and nailed to the cross, died.  He was entombed and, after three days and three nights, He awoke from His sleep of death, stood up and left the tomb, becoming the firstborn of the dead, paving the way for the rest of us to follow out of death and into eternal life.

 

2Co 5:17 ASV  Wherefore if any man is in Christ, he is a new creature: the old things are passed away; behold, they are become new.

 

There is already a human two point zero, and it is us, the born-again sons and daughters of the Almighty God.  We who have followed our Lord and Saviour are already human 2.0, and human 2.1 and 2.2... and 3.0 and 3.1 and... ad infinitum.  There is already a DNA patent owner and that is the Ever Living God.  What the wicked powers operating in this soon-to-end world plan is impossible; they have been beaten by almost two millennia.  Not only that but any attempt to own human beings by modifying human DNA and claiming patent rights over it has already failed since the sixth day of creation.

 

Psa 50:10-12 ASV  For every beast of the forest is mine, And the cattle upon a thousand hills.  (11)  I know all the birds of the mountains; And the wild beasts of the field are mine.  (12)  If I were hungry, I would not tell thee; For the world is mine, and the fulness thereof.

 

Eze 18:4 ASV  Behold, all souls are mine; as the soul of the father, so also the soul of the son is mine: the soul that sinneth, it shall die.

 

The Lord's possession of us as Christians is an especially important point to remember because, when we defend our bodies against unauthorised intrusions and modifications (and, by unauthorised, I mean the owner, God, has not authorised it), we are actually defending the temple of God, a sacred place wherein the Spirit of God dwells.  To knowingly allow man-made, toxic, gene-altering abominations, especially those derived through the mass-murder of the unborn, directly into our bodies, even bypassing all protective bodily systems, is anathema and can only be considered an especially grievous sin.

 

1Co 6:19 ASV  Or know ye not that your body is a temple of the Holy Spirit which is in you, which ye have from God? and ye are not your own;

 

Of course, there is repentance for those who have foolishly trusted man and accepted such an assault on their bodies, being driven by fear of man instead of trusting in God, allowing the wicked to usurp God's unique right to possession of His temple, but repentance will not bring healing and people will have to live with the anxiety of what will come as a consequence of their trust in fallen man.  For those who have made this tragic error, repent and seek God and ask for healing.  I do not know, nor can I know or say, what it is that the Ever Living will do for each individual but I know for certain that He forgives the truly contrite heart.  God has no desire that anyone should perish in eternal death, not even the wicked but, ultimately, justice must prevail.

 

What the globalists have planned is a huge downgrade to humanity, turning human beings into soulless, deterministic machines, mere biological robots because, as unimaginably complex and incredible is the design of the human body (including the brain), without the mind it is reduced to a deterministic machine.  As you may recall from a post I wrote some years back, mind does not arise from brain matter and neural activity; mind transcends the brain and neural activity arises from, and is directed by, mind and soul, the spiritual body.

 

What the wicked want is total control.  They mistakenly believe that they can access and use the creative capacities of humanity for their own selfish purposes by turning us all into mere biological robots plugged into their A.I. mainframe, because they are materialists and do not believe in the existence of a transdendent realm, that which we call spirit, the domain of the soul.  Mind is part of that and not part of the material realm, and it is mind which is non-deterministic, thus being imbued with the capacity to generate novel, irreducibly complex information, the power of true creativity.  Mindless biological robots will be no different to the misnamed "artificial intelligence" to which they are connected, becoming nothing more than glorified, hypercomplex clockwork, an expansion to existing supercomputer capacities, drawing in what is already known and able only to recombine currently existing atoms of knowledge into many forms but unable to create something utterly new in its irreducible complexity.  It is simply a huge expansion on the existing and, I reiterate, misnamed "artificial intelligence".  I say that is a misnomer because I associate intelligence with true creative ability arising from the capacity for non-deterministic thought and its resultant action, something which is associated only with the existence of consciousness, and consciousness is not something a mere machine can ever achieve.  If it arises from large levels of neural activity, what is the "magic number" of synaptic triggers that causes it and why does it transcend even death as we have noted in so many so-called near death experiences?  There is no other known source for truly novel, irreducibly complex information in existence other than the mind.  All of the rest of the natural realm is utterly deterministic, a cause and effect system whose original cause is in the mind of God.

 

We, born-again Christians, are already Human Two Point Zero, and we will be going ever beyond that, but the W.E.F. and their cohorts want to do their wicked father's bidding, the work of the devil, destroying the image of God from, and taking possession of, the earth, destroying humanity and reducing it to human zero point zero... which can only lead to death.  The biblical reasoning regarding the "mark of the beast" and its consequences has become a whole lot more tangible and meaningful and, therefore, a whole lot more avoidable.

 

Do not trust fallen man, whose breath of life is but a fugacious puff of hot air.

 

Trust only God.

The Great Tempest is Building Us Up

Living on this hill for some 18 plus years now, I have learned a few things about adversity and, perhaps, the most important is that without adversity there is no strong growth, maybe even no growth at all.  If I plant a tree, a sapling, such as one brought from elsewhere where the weather is a lot calmer, such as grown in a pot in someone's back yard in a suburban area, such are usually tall and thin, not much strength to them and, once planted, typically last no more than a few weeks, if that.  The strong winds here are frequent and can be ferocious and they snap such a tree in two.  However, if I grow a tree from seed or very small seedling here on the hill, if it survives, its trunk grows thick, strong, immense for the height of the tree, and that is because of the winds, because of the adversity.  I supply it with only enough water to survive the very dry spells that are also frequent here so that it has a chance to put strong roots down deep, through cracks and gaps in the basaltic rock under the thin layer of topsoil and into the deeper volcanic soil where water accumulates during wet periods.  It takes time and a lot of care but, once it does that, the tree is immovable.  It survives severe tempests, drought, flooding downpours, hail, extreme cold and extreme heat.  As long as the rains come at least once in a while, the only thing that can kill such a tree is a direct lightning strike, literally, a bolt from heaven, or a fire.

 

No athlete becomes great without being subjected to the struggle of intense competition.  No professional becomes expert in a field without challenges to overcome.  The steeper the climb, the stronger the climber.  No faith in God is worth anything without testing and refining and such strengthened faith is needed in order that we accomplish the works which God has, aforetime, prepared and assigned for us to do.

 

In the midst of all this fear and anxiety with what is going on in the world under the influence of powerful people (whose power, by the way, only exists in our minds as long as we are deceived into believing they have authority over us which, unfortunately, appears to be the case for too many people), with the looming and growingly existential threat of a global totalitarian tyranny, we need meaningfully real hope or we just wither and perish and become easy prey for the powers of wickedness.  However, it need not be that way.

 

God allows this great adversity we face in order to reignite His spiritual nation, true Christianity, His people, and as the adversity grows stronger, everywhere we see signs of turning back to the Ever Living God, signs of people seeking Yeshua, our Lord and saviour.  For me, it is a sign that the final Elijah to come will soon be raised up, that the two witnesses are just around the corner, that God is bringing His people out of the worldly wilderness into which they were scattered almost two millennia ago and back into a united, organised entity on the face of the Earth, in preparation for entering "kingdom come", the coming Kingdom of Heaven, of God, on the Earth, exactly as described in the Lord's prayer, exactly as described at the end of Revelation chapter 11, exactly as the Lord Himself told us would happen.

 

In every situation where the children of God are confronted by an immensely powerful adversary and find themselves under what seems like an irresistable attack, God uses those circumstances to strengthen His people thus increasing their faith in Him.  He always uses every adverse situation to help us to grow and nothing He does is wasted.  As only one of many examples, consider the situation when the Israelites left Egypt and Pharaoh sent his armed forces to either bring them back into slavery or destroy them.  They were afraid for their lives but God used the situation to their advantage, to strengthen their faith and their resolve in moving forward and following Him, and He wiped out the power of Pharaoh in the process, power which Pharaoh only imagined was actually his.  Not only that, the people numbered with the Israelites only increased as a mixed multitude out of Egypt had joined them.  Remember, Egypt is a parable of the world under the power of the wicked, Pharaoh is an image of the current evil worldly powers which will culminate in the coming son of perdition, ancient Israel is a picture of spiritual Israel and, just as the original Israel came back into the world as a physical nation, likewise will happen to spiritual Israel, it will return as a spiritual nation, the true church of Christ.  Finally, the mixed multitude is a picture of those who will turn to God during the growingly treacherous times, and we see it all happening right now, right before our very eyes!  So, I say, do not fear for your God comes and nothing can take you out of His mighty hand.  That does not mean we will escape all adversity, almost certainly most will not, save for but a few, but it does mean that adversity will not be our end.

 

Personally, I have experienced bad circumstances, on various occasions throughout my life, which the Lord has turned to my good (though I will not go into details here), so I have no doubts about His ability to do whatever He plans with whatever materials and circumstances He has at hand, be they good or bad, small or great, obscure or obvious.  For many of us, the main problem is that we do not know what difficulties we must face and that frightens us, but we do know one thing; He will never test us beyond our true limits.  He will only stretch those limits through testing.  The trunk grows thicker, stronger and taller and the roots grow deeper.

 

The apostle tells us that the Lord uses all things (and all really does mean all) for the good of those who love Him:

 

Rom 8:28 ASV  And we know that to them that love God all things work together for good, (even) to them that are called according to (His) purpose.

 

Whatever we face, it is of the utmost importance that we remember that the adversity leading to accelerated spiritual growth is the strong, tempestuous storm which buffets us in our life's journey and, should we choose to stand up to it and push forward in faith, bearing up under the load, carrying the cross, as we enter uncharted territory, we will grow stronger in our faith and, eventually, nothing will seem impossible.

 

It is instructive to note how the enemy has attacked virtually all of humanity and not focused primarily on the children of God.  Why is this?  Because the spiritual Israelite kingdom, the true Christian church, the true body of Christ, is still in the worldly wilderness and is yet to be restored as an organised and directly identifiable entity on the Earth.  As a result, the enemy being not a true god and limited in capacity, the effectiveness of his attacks are diffused as he desperately seeks to wipe out as much of the populace of the soon coming Kingdom of God as he can, by attacking all of humanity, in the hopes of destroying the faith of the faithful through suffering at the hands of his human minions.  Another point worthy of consideration is this idea that all of humanity will own nothing, except, of course, the members of the self-appointed, self-described "elite".  Why is this?  It is because God has clearly stated that the whole of the Earth is His, the cattle on a thousand hills are His, all that exists is His, so, of course, the enemy wants to take possession of it all to himself, usurping the true owner who is soon to return.  No surprises there.

 

However, when the last Elijah appears and draws out the children of God from wherever they are on the Earth, and the true Christian church reappears on the face of the Earth in preparation for receiving their soon arriving King, the enemy's attacks will then be focused on that body of Christ and the final years, the great tribulation of the saints, will begin.  Watch for it in the coming months and years, for I believe it is near.  Of course I could be wrong and it could be yet another decade away but I have the distinct impression that it is very near, even at the door.

 

Trust God, not man.
