Article #366
by Bill Nugent
You’ve heard about The Great Reset, which is a power grab by corporate and government technocrats. They intend to make sweeping changes in our economy and government in order to reduce emission of greenhouse gases and prevent global warming.
Let me first draw a parallel with 18th century history. History often repeats itself.
An event occurred in Iceland in June of 1783 that would go on to change the course of history. This event was a huge volcano called the Laki Fissure Eruption. It began June 8, 1783 and continued for 8 months until February 7, 1784. Over 14 cubic kilometers of molten lava gushed forth. More importantly was the gaseous element of the eruption. Fluorine gas and sulfur containing gases spewed out and changed global weather patterns.
The sulfur combined in the upper atmosphere to form sulfuric acid and this blocked out the sun. The winter of 1783-84 was extremely cold as were several following winters. The greater problem was that the summers were much cooler and there were crop failures all over Europe. Reports from China, Japan and North America also indicated vast weather changes. The Mississippi River froze over as far south as New Orleans.
A Volcano Brought on a Revolution
The volcano and the crop failures caused world hunger. Hungry people get restive and revolt. Historians make a connection between the crop failures in France and The French revolution which changed the course of European and global history. Marie Antoinette is alleged to have said “Let them eat cake.”
There’s a stunning parallel between 1783 Iceland and what’s occurring around the world today. If you’ve been following the news I’m sure you’re aware that food prices have been rising. That’s because of the greatly reduced grain shipments out of Ukraine because of the war. The extreme drought in the American West is causing reductions in our harvest here in the US. Europe has had bizarre weather, causing Harvest reductions. China has had torrential rains and floods which has hindered their agricultural production. Add that to the shortage of fertilizer. It’s apparent that circumstances are adding up to a global hunger crisis.
Part of the food crisis appears to be deliberate. For instance the government of Sri Lanka was coerced into changing its agricultural production and fertilizer usage to satisfy global bureaucrat’s concerns about climate change. The woke agriculture policies caused a huge reduction in food production in Sri Lanka. The Netherlands also had this kind of manipulation by global elite people.
The bottom line is that we are apparently headed for a period of global instability due to the food crisis. The globalist elitists intend to use this crisis to gain even more power.
The World Economic Forum and the Unelected Elitists
Klaus Schwab (1938- ), founder of the World Economic Forum, and many other prominent wealthy and influential people are pushing to impose a totalitarian global government run by technocrats. The global elite is a group consisting of sociopath billionaires, corrupt academics and UN bureaucrats. Others involved in this globalist movement include socialist politicians in governments all over the world.
This is not a conspiracy theory. Conspiracies are secret. This is being done openly. Schwab’s book “COVID-19, The Great Reset” explains it. Schwab’s book is the “Mein Kampf” of the globalist movement.
Let me define technocracy. Technocracy is a government run by scientifically trained experts, called technocrats. The technocrats who claim to be experts in their fields don’t tolerate having their expertise contradicted by dissenting voices on social media or anywhere else in public discourse. They also don’t tolerate having their opinions and their verbal decrees in any way challenged by democratic institutions such as the US congress or European parliaments.
Should Experts Make All Our Decisions?
The reasoning is that if you speak out against the experts, you’re challenging science. The elitists believe the voters are too ignorant to make right decisions regarding response to the pandemic or energy shortages or food shortages. Let the technocrats rule by decree!
A technocracy is a subtle and sophisticated form of fascism. Fascism is total government control exercised by joining corporate power with governmental power. Communism is the abolition of the private sector. Fascism actually embraces the private sector’s huge corporations. The transformation of the western democracies into technocracies is called “The Great Reset.”
A good example of a technocrat is Dr Anthony Fauci (1940- ). Fauci was touted by woke news outlets as being the foremost expert on virology in the United states. Fauci is more of a bureaucrat than researcher. He’s really just a vaccine salesman. He’s the highest paid public servant in the United States. He has connections to big pharma companies such as Pfizer and Moderna. Fauci promotes COVID vaccine shots for children even though the current dominant BA-5 variant is very mild. Many children have suffered horrible adverse reactions to the shots.
If Fauci and the CDC really believe the shots are safe and effective they’d be insisting that all the illegals crossing our southern border be vaccinated. I suspect they know the COVID vaccines are not for public safety.
Do you really want “experts” like Fauci dictating health decisions for you and your family?
The CDC, the FDA and the NIH are supposed to regulate the big pharma companies. They are actually captured by the big pharma companies. The executives and directors of big pharma serve in the CDC and people who work for the CDC retire from government and get high paying jobs in big pharma. This cozy arrangement has been going on for decades. Big pharma makes billions from vaccines. Suppression of reports of vaccine adverse events and imposition of vaccine mandates increases their profits.
It should come as no surprise that other governmental regulatory agencies are also captured by corporations. The Department of Defense (DOD), has long been captured by the defense contractors. It’s called the military industrial complex for a reason. Military is government. Industrial is private corporations. They have a symbiotic relationship. Defense executives go to work for the DOD. DOD employees get cushy jobs in the defense industry.
The same thing can be said of the USDA. Big agriculture has captured the USDA. One result of this capture is the absurdity called ethanol. Environmental groups initially promoted ethanol before it was mandated in 2005. Now environmentalists and others are outraged. Ethanol production takes up valuable farm acreage to grow the corn to be feedstock for ethanol. It depletes water resources. It requires fossil fuel resources to run the tractors and machinery. Ethanol itself is bad for automobile engines. Ethanol is destructive all the way around. It persists because it increases the profits of big agriculture.
We’ve been living in a limited version of technocracy for decades. Then the COVID pandemic came and the technocracy was intensified so that its true colors could be seen by all. The adverse reactions to the experimental mRNA “vaccines” was covered up. Big pharma pushed vaccines on children as young as six months. That’s scientifically absurd but if you question it, you’re silenced.
Elimination of Democracy
They want to eliminate democracy as much as possible in order to manage the human herd and lower the standard of living so that everybody lives off very low incomes and that will reduce consumption and thereby reduce pollution and reduce greenhouse gases and eliminate climate change. People won’t vote to lower their standard of living. It has to be forced on them by experts.
Radical changes are imposed by judge’s rulings and bureaucrat’s regulations. However, the US constitution Article 1, Section 1, requires all laws to be written by elected representatives in congress.
One major flaw of technocracy is that the experts tend to engage in group think. The technocrats focus with tunnel vision on a solution. The ivory tower elite settles in on an opinion. That opinion becomes the party line. It becomes the narrative describing the solutions for mankind’s problems. Anyone who deviates from the narrative or speaks out against it is mercilessly silenced and de-platformed.
This power grab by the technocrats, these unelected, biased corporate experts and their sociopath billionaire funders and followers are leading the industrialized nations into totalitarian government. This government is proposed to be a transnational one world government.
Much of the machinery of one world government is already in place. We have the International Criminal Court (ICC). There’s also The World Bank and the IMF. We’ve got the UN and it’s many agencies and its patchwork of treaties. The machinery of global government is already in place. The elite intend to give that machinery much more power in their Great Reset power grab.
How did we get here? How can freedom loving people let themselves be pushed around by Uncle Tony and the other experts during the pandemic? How could we let ourselves be censored and de-platformed and silenced with barely a whimper?
The Culmination of Centuries of European History
To see how we got here, let’s do a brief a brief review of European history over the last 500 years.
500 years ago Europe was governed by absolute monarchs. It was a hereditary dictatorship of kings and emperors. It was totalitarianism, a medieval technocracy by educated royals and their courtiers.
In the 1500s came the Protestant Reformation. This resulted not just in reform of the church but it put Bibles in the hands of people all across Europe for the first time in history. They learned about the Bible’s teaching on the sacredness of human life, that all people are created in God’s image and are therefore equal (Genesis 9:6), that all people have individual autonomy under the rule and reign of God (Romans 14:1-5).
The fact that all people had access to the Bible and discussed the Bible and searched out its truths had profound impacts on the universities, the monasteries and the great masses of the people.
The 1600s saw the rise of modern science. This is because the Bible gives the regularity principle which is the foundation of inductive or modern science. Francis Bacon formulated the scientific method. Bacon was a Bible believing Christian. Eastern paganism has regarded nature as a mere illusion (Hindu view of nature is “Maya” = illusion). Western paganism regarded nature as chaos (Ancient Greek Platonist view). The Christian biblical view is that God is a rational being who gives moral laws to govern people and physical laws to govern nature. Nature is orderly, consistent and “regular.” Only in the biblical frame of mind does it make sense to do scientific experiments, gather data and induce scientific principles.
Also in the 1600s was a political revolution coming directly from biblical truths. We saw the rise of parliament in England, coming into real power and reducing the power of the king. In North America, Thomas Hooker and others preached that Christians are not only priests but also kings. We are a “royal priesthood” (I Peter 2:9). Every Christian is royal. Therefore every Christian participates in government (votes).
The 1700s brought the Enlightenment. There were actually two Enlightenments. One Enlightenment was a Christian Enlightenment led by Montesquieu, Locke and other Christian philosophers and leaders. This led to the age of reason, the application of natural law and the founding of the United States and liberal democracies in Western Europe.
The other was a secular Enlightenment led by Voltaire, Diderot, Rousseau, Hume, Kant and others centered mainly in France. This led to the French Revolution, the rise of secularism, atheism and a gradual falling away from Christianity.
The 1800s saw the rise of Romanticism in philosophy. It was a return to nature and the myth of the noble savage. The 1800s also saw the beginnings of postmodernism through Nietzsche, Hegel and other early existentialist philosophers.
The 1900s saw the application of postmodernism to the political sphere. The political philosophies of Communism and fascism rose in Europe. Postmodernism rejected not only biblical revelation but also rationality itself. Postmodernists create their own truths in their own minds and they band together and impose their new truths on others to try to build a secular, godless utopia.
In the late 1900s we saw the collapse of communism but it really didn’t go away. When Klaus Schwab says “By 2030 you will own nothing and be happy” that’s really just another restatement of communism. Global technocracy is global governmental totalitarianism with false promises of utopian “sustainability.”.
In the 2000s we see the rise of fascist technocracy as an appeal to leave everything to the experts and let the government make all the decisions. Democratic institutions will be limited to making small decisions like dog leash laws and license fees. This is all part of the “falling away” that the “man of sin be revealed, the son of perdition” prophesied in First Thessalonians 2:3.
I believe that later in the twenty-first century we will see the second coming of Christ and He will do a Holy Reset!!
Woke Corporations and Woke Bureaucrats
The cry of the young people in the 1960s and 70s was “Power to the people!” Now many young people implicitly cry “Power to the corporations!” Today, the corporations are woke. Corporations promote the bizarre left-wing culture of death. Young people today see corporations as cool!
The COVID crisis ripped the mask off the technocrats. Fauci is a government bureaucrat with corporate connections. Technocrats are bureaucrats. It was a bald-faced power grab that involved mandated jabs of experimental mRNA vaccines. Dissenting views were censored with police state power.
Now the technocratic elite are leading us into a “new normal” of surveillance, vaccine passports and medical discrimination.
Next comes a food crisis, more draconian controls on people and then a “new, new normal” of Fourth Reich police state suppression of freedom.
Let’s resist these self-appointed dictator technocrats and write our laws through our elected representatives as Article I, Section I, of the US Constitution requires!
“Ye have heard that antichrist shall come” (I John 2:18)
All this is a setup to bring in a global totalitarian government led by the antichrist that we see predicted in the New Testament book of Revelation, chapter 13:1-18. “Power was given him over all kindreds, and tongues, and nations” (Rev. 13:7). The Bible also teaches that there will be places of refuge where the antichrist dictatorship will not gain power. I believe the United States will be one of those areas (Rev. 12:13-17).
This foretells a time not only of extreme persecution of Christianity but a cutoff of all dissent from anyone who disagrees with the global governing elite. People who see the rise of technocracy and the attacks on democracy are very concerned. Many people, even secular people, are beginning to take stock and look at the profound changes that are coming on the world.
The Love of God is a Uniquely Biblical Concept
God loves people. The pagan gods don’t love people. Brahma doesn’t love you. The ancient Greek pagan god, Zeus, doesn’t love you. The spirits of modern Wicca don’t love you. The only God who loves you and redeems you is the biblical Judeo-Christian God!
People are taking a new look at Christianity. They reflect on the fact that Jesus came in fulfillment of over 300 Old Testament prophecies. They are aware of the miracles of Christ. They may have experienced or witnessed miracles performed in the name of Christ in answer to Christian prayer. They marvel at the fact that Jesus died for our sins, that he took the penalty of our sins upon Himself so that we don’t have to receive punishment for our sins but we can receive forgiveness of sins through Christ.
The ancient Hebrew prophets of the Old Testament foretold the coming of Messiah and that He would die for our sins. Isaiah the prophet wrote “the LORD hath laid on him the iniquity of us all” Isaiah 53:6. I invite you to turn to Christ today to receive forgiveness of sins!

Steps to salvation:
Jesus said “Ye must be born again” (John 3:7).
Prayer to receive salvation:
“Whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved” (Romans 10:13).
To receive the salvation that Jesus purchased for us at the terrible cost of His suffering and death on our behalf I invite you to pray this simple prayer:
“Dear heavenly Father, I thank you for sending Jesus, the promised Messiah, to die for my sins. I admit that I am a sinner. I repent of my sins and I ask for your forgiveness on the basis of the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ. I ask you to fill me with your Holy Spirit to empower me to serve you under the Lordship of Jesus Christ, Amen.”
If you prayed this prayer in the humble sincerity of your heart then you have received everlasting life, which includes power to live right in this life and entrance into heaven in the afterlife!
