The Precarious Banking System and the New World Order

In 2017 Joseph Huber wrote Sovereign Money in which he described our current electronic money system as a system of two separate loops that were interconnected by commercial banks. In the first system, the private sector, small, commercial, industrial businesses, along with insurance companies and hedge funds occupy one system, where money is created and issued and loaned out by approximately 4300 commercial banks and private banks. (1)  Something like this:


In the second system, the European Central Bank, and the Bank of Japan, US Government, Treasury, commercial banks along with the Federal Reserve occupy the second loop or the Wholesale sector. In this loop, the commercial banks are customers of the Federal Reserve. They do not issue money in this loop, but borrow and transact with the Federal Reserve, a private, non-governmental institution. (2)


The two systems have been largely independent, until September 11, 2019 when Federal money was injected into the private loop due to the pre-pandemic financial crisis. (3) At that point, globalist conversations proposed and initiated implementation of the Central Bank Digital Currency system that would look something like this, however our “national” bank would be subject to an international Central Bank:


To all who have been paying attention, especially in the latest developments of the 2023 Banking Crisis, none of this is news. The globalists continue marching towards their goals and have communicated the following intentions for the CBDC economy:


  • There will be one central bank to which all global citizens will belong, including the currently unbanked. (One scenario may be that countries are left with a few branches of a “national” bank that “bank” at the international central bank.(4)


  • Financial transparency and scrutiny on the level of the individual will be the new reality.(5)


  • Markets prefer totalitarian governments and democracy is messy.(6)


  • Total control will be exercised over financial affairs of nation-states.(7)


  • Cryptocurrency (unless it belongs to the FedNow (8) program) appears it will continue to be swept into the authoritarian dragnet as well, at least in the US.(9)


Certainties in the looming new CBDC world include:


  • Totalitarian control over every aspect of life to the small minutiae, including a record of all personal movements and monitoring of all purchases and transactions.


  • Punishment of dissenters through financial repercussions and controls, including limits or stops on buying and selling and freezing bank accounts, and resultant control over protest and dissemination of “misinformation” and online dialogue.


  • Further narrowing of economic competition as smaller businesses are squeezed out in favor of larger commercial hubs, such as Amazon and Walmart.


  • Increased system vulnerabilities to cyber attacks and power outages.


  • Increased ability of powerful nations to coerce and control weaker nations through seizure of digital assets and limits of commercial participation using tariffs and sanctions


  • Negative interest rates will affect the individual, who will be “disincentivized” from saving because money will lose purchasing power.


  • Greater power for monitoring tax compliance with resultant immediate penalties.


  • Transferring “surplus” from account holders for national or other debt.



The foregoing is not an exhaustive list. It is apparent that freedom of speech, religion, protest, public dialogue and dissent are going to be starved of oxygen until they whither and collapse. The existent buffers of cash transactions, privacy and private sector commercial banks is disintegrating. Payment systems like the new Amazon One, (8) when combined with a central bank digital currency and digital ID’s, spell the end of freedom in the west. (9)


For all of those watching, the foregoing means your options as a free thinking, and free speaking person are dwindling. This raises the question of what you should do.


First of all, you ought to be making determined and decisive steps to get out of the city. (10) Cities will become centers of mass control and authoritarianism, and enormous human suffering.(11) Cities do not produce anything except for hungry and violent people, and of course surveillance cameras, checkpoints and goons with tear gas and machine guns.


Second, you ought to be taking steps to grow your own garden, because the food supply is not only compromised through the meddling and perversions of Big Agra, but it will be just as impacted by the new digital reality as everything else. Independence for a little while longer means the ability to grow your own food, obtain and purify your own water, and generate your own electricity. Learn to treat ailments with simple but effective natural remedies.


Thirdly, if you believe in the Gospel commission and the sharing of the last warnings in the Scriptures to a dying world, take steps to support missions now. One day in the perhaps not too distant future, your ability to use the wealth that you have accumulated will be gone. Revelation 13 is clear – those who refuse the mark of the first beast of Revelation 13 will be severed from the commercial system. When this happens, the money that you have saved will be useless.


Those who are tempted to capitulate and receive the mark must remember that those who do so will be able to buy and sell for a short while, until the plagues begin to fall and destroy houses, lands, and people who received the mark by the unnumbered millions – Revelation 14:9-11; Revelation 16:2; Revelation 18:4. It is better to stand for liberty, and suffer with the oppressed people of God, than to bend the knee and receive the mark.



There is much more to say, but for now let us conclude with a short story.


Eric B Hare, the great missionary, once wrote an account of having to close his mission due to war, and the great human divide that resulted.



During World War II, I was in Rangoon, Burma, when the merchants closed their shops and dismissed their tired clerks. I saw them fleeing for their lives. I saw the banks close their doors, and the bankers flee for their lives. I saw the post office close, and the post office workers flee for their lives. I was in Rangoon when doctors and nurses put their weak, sick patients out on the sidewalks, and then fled for their lives. The Japanese army was within 75 miles of the city, and our last supply lines had been cut. At the zoo, the keepers shot the lions and tigers to keep them from starving to death, then they fled for their lives. At the leper and insane asylums, the warders opened the doors, then fled for their lives. And at the jail, just three miles from our mission station, the prison doors were opened, and 3,000 criminals came walking into town, while the keepers and the policemen fled for their lives. I was there. I saw it. I saw the last boat leave for India. I saw the last train leave the depot.

And I am going to tell you what happened, for in Rangoon God gave me a preview of the end of the world and the day of judgment.


Just two days before we escaped, I was packing away some of our most valuable articles when a well-to-do woman came into the mission headquarters and asked for Mr. Meleen, the mission superintendent. Mr. Meleen came out, and though I didn't mean to eavesdrop, I couldn't help overhearing the conversation.


"O Mr. Meleen, I have to go, and I can't take anything with me except a little suitcase and a rug for the journey," the woman said. "You may not know me, but I know you. I live in that grand home just a few blocks away where the coconut palms and the big mango trees are, and now I have to go and leave my lovely home behind. I hate to think of the thieves breaking in to steal and loot and plunder. Won't your mission people go over and take all my lovely furniture? Take my beds and my tables and my chairs and my beautiful rugs. I will feel so much happier if I know you mission people can use them."


And I heard Mr. Meleen say, "It is too late now. We are all packed up. We will be leaving any moment ourselves. We have been waiting to evacuate our church members, and when they are out we will be going too, with only a suitcase each. If we could have had some of those things three months ago when we were outfitting our clinic, we could have used every bed and chair and table. But now it is too late, too late!"


I saw the tears come to that poor woman's eyes. "Too late?" she groaned, as if she couldn't believe it. "You are going, too?" As she turned to leave, she threw her shawl over her face to hide her grief, and from her lips came the heartbreaking cry, "Oh, how I wish!”" Then emotion choked her words, but I knew what she wished. Yes, I knew.


I tried to remember if that well-to-do woman, just two blocks away, had ever helped out in the clinic program or the Ingathering program. I couldn't think of a single occasion when that poor rich woman did anything for humanity. Now it was too late and she had to leave everything behind, and oh, how she wished. (12)




While there is time to choose, choose wisely. The Bible clearly describes what is going to happen to the world in the time leading up to the second coming of Christ, and it is not a utopian millennium. A time of trouble is coming such as never was (Daniel 12:1), and there will be blood and fire and sorrow before the great and terrible day of the Lord – Joel 2:11.


While the day of mercy lingers, “seek the Lord while He may be found, call upon Him while He is near” – Isaiah 55:6. Reader, He is calling and searching for you today. “Today is the day of salvation” – 2 Cor 6:2.


Jesus left heaven and came to this wretched earth and died for you. He took your sins, and mine, on Himself. He calls to you to repent and believe the Gospel, to ask Him into your heart and make you a new person by His grace and strength. Today, right now, you can be free of guilt and shame, and worry and at peace with God through Jesus Christ. All who answer His call and forsake their sins will find salvation and mercy, joy and rest. And instead of fear when He returns, you will have peace, and will be able to say with the faithful, “This is our God. We have waited for Him and He will save us” – Isaiah 25:9.



Won’t you answer Him now?

(7) Custodia Bank of Wyoming and Signature Bank are two examples. The Federal Reserve, FDIC and Office of the Comptroller Control have illegally denied Custodia Bank, a cryptocurrency bank, a seat at the Federal Reserve table; a lawsuit is pending. This despite Custodia making 100% of customer deposits available 100% of the time, otherwise known as full reserve banking.


https://www.piratewires.com/p/crypto-choke-point


Signature Bank, was one of the three initial banks that precipitated our current crisis and was supposedly shutdown due to insolvency. Its board declared that it was not insolvent and its shutdown was likely due to the cryptocurrency transactions it facilitated for New York City, particularly with respect to real estate.


https://nymag.com/intelligencer/2023/03/barney-frank-says-more-shuttering-signature-bank.html


In both cases, the financial opacity for the NWO was intolerable. Lack of ability to scrutinize transactions on the granular level caused the demise of these banks.

HORMUZ STRAIT-JACKET, OVERWHELMING SURPRISE

By Wings of Liberty • March 30, 2026
The following paragraph was penned over 120 years ago, but accurately describe the events of our world today. And tomorrow. In the last scenes of this earth’s history, war will rage. There will be pestilence, plague and famine. The waters of the deep will overflow their boundaries. Property and life will be destroyed by fire and flood. We should be preparing for the mansions that Christ has gone to prepare for them that love Him. Maranatha, 174 (1897). … It is March 30, 2026. The Strait of Hormuz, a corridor through which a third of global shipping once passed, i has been largely closed to traffic for thirty days. The population at large has yet to realize the full catastrophic implications of this closure. When they do, they are likely to panic. In the weeks leading up to the commencement of the war in Iran, the price of a barrel of West Texas Intermediate fluctuated between $55 and $66/barrel. Today, it is $101.56/barrel. Brent crude is even higher, surpassing $115/barrel as of the time of writing. The Strait of Hormuz is the conduit for 40% of global fertilizer shipments, and 50% of urea shipments. 50% of global sulphur, used in pesticides, insecticides, and fungicides, come through the Strait of Hormuz. All such traffic is at a standstill. Already struggling farmers are confronted with the twin spectres of rapidly rising fuel costs and limited fertilizer. Maybe the timing of the invasion of Iran is just a coincidence. Maybe it was unforeseen that Iran would close the Strait of Hormuz if it was attacked. Maybe the people who plan wars don’t have sophisticated war gaming capabilities and artificial intelligence war simulators which project likely outcomes. Or maybe, if the elites who want a global population collapse could pick any moment to interrupt shipping traffic and create conditions for widespread famine on planet earth, they would pick the spring planting season. Coincidence or not, in addition to the cessation of shipping through the Strait of Hormuz, China has also restricted fertilizer exports. ii Suddenly, the prospect of famine in various places globally is rising. To say that people are unprepared would be a gross understatement. Grocery stores in the western world stock approximately 3 days worth of food. Nearly all domestic food transportation globally runs on diesel. On February 23, 2026, the U.S. retail diesel price was $3.809 per gallon. By March 23, 2026, it had risen to $5.375 per gallon. Those costs will be passed on to consumers sooner or later, and inflation will erode the savings and financial stability of the population. Nations are being squeezed. Many countries in Asia have implemented fuel rationing. Sri Lanka has introduced a QR-code-based rationing system limiting private cars to 15 litres per week. Bangladesh restricts motorcycle purchases to 2 litres per day and private cars to 10 litres per day. Myanmar has instituted an "odd-even" rationing system for fuel purchases based on vehicle registration numbers. Cambodia has seen significant closures with a third of petrol pumps shut down. South Korea has ordered public servants to reduce passenger car use and capped refined fuel exports. Thailand has encouraged remote work, limited air conditioning to 26°C, and suspended fuel exports. Vietnam is encouraging remote work and limiting personal vehicle use, while some smaller stations have temporarily closed due to declining supplies. Nepal has limited the use of official vehicles to essential services and is considering an odd-even system for private vehicles. Pakistan has reduced available fuel for government vehicles by half. We have repeatedly been told that the war in Iran will be over quickly. But US soldiers were informed by their commanding officers that this war will bring in Armageddon. If the theocons who control the White House are anticipating Armageddon, why would anyone think that this is going to be a transitory situation? Or that everything will go back to normal if the Iran issue is resolved? The reality is that a paradigm shift has taken place in the upper echelons of power in America. There is now a union of church and state, and the Iran war is a religious war. A “holy war”, at the conclusion of which the theocons claim will usher in a “golden age” of peace and prosperity. Stock markets and political analysts have yet to understand, or even begin to consider, what this means in all its various ramifications. In the meantime, we propose that readers watch the following video on food scarcity, and seriously consider taking steps to plant a garden soon. https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=c77M4mC7yLg ________________________________________________ i https://www.etcgroup.org/content/experts-warn-strait-hormuz-fertilizer-and-fuel-blockage-could-lead-global-food-crisis ii https://www.reuters.com/world/asia-pacific/china-restricts-fertiliser-exports-further-crimping-war-tightened-supply-2026-03-19/

“WE WILL SHOW YOU NO MERCY – THIS IS A CHRISTIAN NATION”

By Wings of Liberty • March 23, 2026
NATIONS AND IMPERIALISM America is both a nation and an empire. By necessity, nations are inherently self-interested. They have their own geographic boundaries to protect, and they are supposed to guard and advance the best interests of their citizens. Imperialism is a byproduct and a magnification of the tension between nations. There have been many empires in human history, and each at various times has subjugated and violently dominated their neighbors and pillaged their resources. None of this is unusual in the context of human history. But when the most powerful nation in history starts wars, steals other countries resources, and demands territory from its allies under threat of force (Greenland), and at the same time loudly declares for the entire world to hear that it is “a Christian nation”, it seems reasonable for thinking people to ask what exactly that means. WHAT IS CHRISTIANITY? Christians have faith in Jesus Christ as the prophesied Messiah. They believe He is God in human flesh; “God with us” – Isaiah 7:14. His teachings matter to them, and not just as external forms. Christianity says the teachings of Christ are to govern and motivate their conduct, and that Christ will give His followers a new heart, a new birth, so that His commandments become internal and natural. Selfish people become self-sacrificing people. Rage-aholics become peaceful and serene. The greatest miracle is a changed life. Christ instructed His followers to follow the golden rule: “do unto others as you would have others do unto you” – Matthew 7:12. Christ says His kingdom is “not of this world” – John 18:36, but that His kingdom is within the hearts of His followers – Luke 17:21. The territory He wants is not geographic – He already owns the universe and the cattle on a thousand hills are His – Psalms 50:10. The contested ground on this earth is the individual heart, and it is hearts He came to save and renew. Given the foregoing, how could America possibly be a Christian nation? Has it been born again – John 3? Does it die to self daily – 2 Cor 15:31? Does it “seeketh not its own” – 2 Corinthians 13? We make no complaint if America, or any other nation, is simply honest, and states the truth: “we are concerned about our own interests. The protection of our borders and our resources. The prosperity of our people. We are inherently selfish, greedy and domineering.” But American politicians and Christian pastors within it are loudly and repeatedly declaring that America is a Christian nation. i Such a claim invokes, nay invites, the scrutiny of America’s conduct against the measuring rod of the life and teachings of Christ. Further, it invites the scrutiny of the Deity Himself. It should come as no surprise that claiming to represent Christ invites the scrutiny, and even judgment, of Christ. As the commandment says, “Thou shalt not take the name of the Lord thy God in vain, for the Lord will not hold him guiltless who taketh His name in vain” – Exodus 20:7. “BY THEIR FRUITS YOU SHALL KNOW THEM” Six years after the First Amendment became part of the US Constitution, the Treaty of Tripoli was signed in 1797. Article 11 contains the following provision, which was adopted by the US Senate and signed by President John Adams: "The government of the United States of America is not in any sense founded on the Christian Religion". ii Jefferson, Madison and Adams never claimed that America was a Christian nation, but the theocons who control the White House today do. It is therefore fair to test their claim. The Bible says that not everyone who professes to follow Christ is really a follower of Christ. Jesus Himself said – you will know them by their fruits – Matthew 7:16. In other words, according to Christ, you will know if they are Christians by their conduct. Not just by their profession. Which raises an interesting question: if there is conduct which is unchristian in individuals, is there not conduct which is unchristian in nations? What does one call the folks who declare they are Christians and then constantly violate every principle of His teachings? We understand that people make mistakes and so do nations. But you’d think nations that claim to be Christian nations could at least have the decency and empathy to apologize. If you accidentally bomb a school and kill 150 schoolgirls, you’d think the least a Christian nation could do is ask forgiveness and make reparations to the families. Isn’t that the Christian thing to do? Or do “Christian Nations” not have to act like Christians? The person who is now head of the Department of War, and the most powerful military in human history, Pete Hegseth, once authored a book wherein he invoked religious language to describe a Christian nation in a holy war against Islam. It ought to be unnecessary to point out that “holy wars” are inherently church/state affairs. They take place in nations in which the religious leaders have substantial control of the civil power, and thereby the military. Hegseth’s book is called, “American Crusade”. It spends little if any time discussing the need to send missionaries to the Middle East, or the Great Commission from Christ to share the Gospel with “all the world”, which presumably would include Iran. Somehow that part gets skipped. Mr. Hegseth issues his call for Christian jihad with the mantra, “Deus Vult”, or “God wills it”, which he also has tattooed on his body. Deus Vult is a Latin exhortation from 1095 that Pope Urban II used to rally crusaders during the First Crusade. Secretary Hegseth faced backlash recently for stating that “no mercy and no quarter” will be given to “our enemies” in Iran, which signifies that soldiers who surrender will be executed rather than taken prisoner. Multiple legal experts immediately protested, reminding Hegseth that such statements constitute a war crime under international and congressional law. iii That is no doubt true. But there is an even higher law that Hegseth has violated, and it is contained in the teachings of Christ Himself, who Hegseth claims to represent. Note the contrast. Jesus : Blessed are the merciful, for they will obtain mercy – Matthew 5:7. Hegseth: “We will give no mercy, and no quarter to our enemies”. No mercy for Iranians even if they surrender. Jesus : “Love your neighbor as yourself.” “This do and thou shalt live” – Luke 10:28. Hegseth (and maybe you!): “Surely Jesus, surely, Iranians are not our neighbors?” And how does the Bible answer that troublesome question? “But he, willing to justify himself, said to him, “Who is my neighbor?” – Luke 10:29. This is the famous preamble to the parable of the Good Samaritan told by Christ, and you presumably know how the story goes. The Bible says, “Love your neighbor as yourself.” That means not murdering him. It means not coveting his oil. Or his land. It means not stealing from him, even when you are more powerful. These are not suggestions for the Christian, they are absolutes. And above all these, the spirit of the commandments contain positive obligations. If your neighbor is in the ditch, you help him. These are commandments for Christians, so wouldn’t they also be commandments for Christian nations? Nations who have claimed to represent Jesus Christ? Christ says, “He who lives by the sword will die by the sword” – Matthew 26:52. America spends more on its military than the next top nine countries combined. i It has been involved in countless foreign conflicts, openly and clandestinely providing weapons and money for proxy wars to Israel, Ukraine, Nicaragua, Afghanistan, Iraq and a host of other nations. It even provided weapons to Iran, the country which it is currently “bombing the hell out of.” ii America is the world’s largest arm’s exporter. iii It is the largest consumer of oil, which appears to be a major factor in all these wars. iv And speaking of consumption: America has the highest number of obese people of any nation in the world. v America produces the most pornography of any country. vi It uses more illicit drugs than any other nation, with Canada having the very dubious distinction of having the second highest illicit drug use globally. vii America has the world’s largest national debt, at $39 trillion dollars and growing rapidly. It has the highest incarceration rate of any nation, with 2 million people behind bars at any given time, including approximately 400,000 people who have been charged but not convicted. viii Don’t mistake us: we love America. We love the principles it is founded on – liberty of conscience, separation of church and state, republicanism. We love that America guards freedom of speech, and freedom of the press, and yes, those rights are biblical, and yes, they come out of the suffering of the Reformation! But is America a Christian nation? Does it demonstrate the fruits of the spirit? Is it meek and merciful, and a peacemaker? Is it going into all the world, preaching to all nations, and baptizing them in the name of the Father, Son and Holy Spirit? These are questions for you to weigh on the great scale of truth. There is no need for us to tell you the answer – the founding fathers said, “we hold these truths to be self-evident.” ______________________________________ i Speaker of the House Mike Johnson, Former Vice President Mike Pence, President Donald Trump, Rep.

BIBLE PROPHECY UPDATE: “HOLY” WAR IN IRAN

By Horizon Products • March 5, 2026
Bible prophecy watchers are increasingly focused on current events indicating a union of church and state is being formed in America. On March 3, 2024, it was widely reported that US military commanders are informing their soldiers that the war in Iran is part of “God’s divine plan, and that Donald Trump was “anointed by Jesus” to commence the battle of Armageddon and hasten the second coming of Christ. This overtly religious and apocalyptic messaging to the troops has resulted in well over a hundred lawsuits from 40 different military units on the grounds that it violates the separation of church and state in the Constitution. Which of course it does. Holy wars are overtly religious affairs. It doesn’t get much more “union of church and state” than declaring that bombing another country is biblically mandated (and justified) by the book of Revelation and commanded by Jesus Christ. Apostate Protestant America has formed an image to the Roman Papacy, which instigated the crusades centuries before . The truth is that US foreign policy in the Middle East has long been influenced by Christians who hold false dispensational beliefs about the end of the world and the second coming of Christ. These beliefs include That whoever blesses Israel will be blessed by God; That the temple in Jerusalem must be rebuilt to usher in end time events; That the secret rapture will occur at the start of a seven year tribulation during which the antichrist will rule the world; That the battle of Armageddon will be fought by the nations of the world on the plains of Megiddo, in modern day northern Israel; That following these events Jesus Christ will return and there will be a 1000 year millenium on this earth where the nations of the earth reign with Christ. Stay tuned – this is a developing story.
