BREAKING UPDATE: Is the New World Order, Single World Government really doing the work for Jesus?

Some Christians have the viewpoint that the single world government movement is actually doing the work for Jesus by fulfilling a prophesy described in the second chapter of the Holy Bible's Book of Daniel. The prophesy states that a world government encompassing many kingdoms and nations will rule over all the earth, subduing all things in the years and days just before Jesus returns. And that Jesus will do away with it completely while establishing His own everlasting kingdom:

And in the days of these kings shall the God of heaven set up a kingdom, which shall never be destroyed: and the kingdom shall not be left to other people, but it shall break in pieces and consume all these kingdoms, and it shall stand for ever (Daniel 2:44-King James Version).

In a broadcast featuring pastor Paul Begley posted on October 20, 2018, the late Irvin Baxter of End Times Ministries shared a lighthearted moment about how the Lord responded to one of Baxter’s prayers:

“Don’t you understand that when I (Jesus) come back to earth, I’m going to have a world government? I’m letting them (the New World Order) do all the work,” Baxter said. “They’re setting up a world government right now and as soon as they get it all ready, I show up. Thank you very much for my world government. Anti-Christ, False Prophet you go to the lake of fire. Satan go the bottomless pit.”

“He’s going to rule for 1,000 years. Wow!” Begley said to Baxter, referring to Jesus Christ's everlasting reign. The Book of Revelation prophesies that the kingdom of God will last for 1,000 years and into eternity (Revelation 20:4-6). Baxter was sharing the Biblical truth as described in Daniel 2, Revelation 11:15 and 13-22.

Daniel interpreted Babylonian king Nebuchadnezzar's dream and described the image that Nebuchadnezzar had seen in the dream as representing four historical kingdoms that ruled like a single world government during their eras - including Babylon. Notice that because Babylon was a world government encompassing many other kings, kingdoms and nations during Nebuchadnezzar's reign, Daniel referred to him as a "king of kings" (an emperor's title bestowed on Jesus Christ in Rev. 5:5).

31 Thou, O king, sawest, and behold a great image. This great image, whose brightness was excellent, stood before thee; and the form thereof was terrible.

32 This image's head was of fine gold, his breast and his arms of silver, his belly and his thighs of brass,

33 His legs of iron, his feet part of iron and part of clay.

34 Thou sawest till that a stone was cut out without hands, which smote the image upon his feet that were of iron and clay, and brake them to pieces.

35 Then was the iron, the clay, the brass, the silver, and the gold, broken to pieces together, and became like the chaff of the summer threshing floors; and the wind carried them away, that no place was found for them: and the stone that smote the image became a great mountain, and filled the whole earth.

36 This is the dream; and we will tell the interpretation thereof before the king.

37 Thou, O king, art a king of kings: for the God of heaven hath given thee a kingdom, power, and strength, and glory.

38 And wheresoever the children of men dwell, the beasts of the field and the fowls of the heaven hath he given into thine hand, and hath made thee ruler over them all. Thou art this head of gold.

39 And after thee shall arise another kingdom inferior to thee, and another third kingdom of brass, which shall bear rule over all the earth.

40 And the fourth kingdom shall be strong as iron: forasmuch as iron breaketh in pieces and subdueth all things: and as iron that breaketh all these, shall it break in pieces and bruise.

41 And whereas thou sawest the feet and toes, part of potters' clay, and part of iron, the kingdom shall be divided; but there shall be in it of the strength of the iron, forasmuch as thou sawest the iron mixed with miry clay.

42 And as the toes of the feet were part of iron, and part of clay, so the kingdom shall be partly strong, and partly broken.

43 And whereas thou sawest iron mixed with miry clay, they shall mingle themselves with the seed of men: but they shall not cleave one to another, even as iron is not mixed with clay.

44 And in the days of these kings shall the God of heaven set up a kingdom, which shall never be destroyed: and the kingdom shall not be left to other people, but it shall break in pieces and consume all these kingdoms, and it shall stand for ever.

These kingdoms represent Babylon and likely Media-Persia that replaced Babylon, the Greek Empire led by Alexander the Great, the divided Roman Empire and later the Holy Roman Empire. The fourth kingdom obviously also represents the New World Order's single global government that is now evolving and will be in place when Jesus returns.

So it can be said, tongue in cheek, that the current world government is actually doing the work for Jesus in establishing a world government that will be overtaken by the everlasting Kingdom of Heaven.
