Remember this. If the government is willing to take religious freedoms away from people, what else would they be willing to take away? What other rights? Man will never give up his soverignty willingly, but what if the government just takes it? They word documents and things to make it seem like we still have the freedoms we so cherish, when they are munipulating things to their own agenda! Eventually we will wake up one day and all of our freedoms and rights will be signed away. They have already modified the constitution. What is next? Do you really believe that America is for the people like it used to be 50 years ago? 100 years ago?

Yes, but not by humans or their organizations. Only through God's Kingdom. “And in the days of those kings [the last days we are in now] the God of heaven will set up a kingdom that will never be brought to ruin. And the kingdom itself will not be passed on to any other people. It will crush and put an end to all these kingdoms, and it itself will stand to times indefinite." (Daniel 2:44) First, it tells us that God’s Kingdom was to be established “in the days of those kings,” or while other kingdoms still existed. Second, it tells us that the Kingdom will last forever. It will not be conquered and be replaced by some other government. Third, we see that there will be war between God’s Kingdom and the kingdoms of this world. God’s Kingdom will be victorious. In the end, it will be the only government over mankind. Then humans will enjoy the best rulership they have ever known.
When he was on earth, Jesus taught his followers to pray for God’s Kingdom. A kingdom is a government that is headed by a king. God’s Kingdom is a special government. It is set up in heaven and will rule over this earth. It will sanctify, or make holy, God’s name. It will cause God’s will to be done on earth as it is done in heaven.—Matthew 6:9, 10.
2. God promised that Jesus would become the King of His Kingdom. (Luke 1:30-33.) When Jesus was on earth, he proved that he would be a kind, just, and perfect Ruler.
The “sheep” are those who will have proved themselves his loyal subjects. They will receive everlasting life on earth. The “goats” are those who will have rejected God’s Kingdom. (Matthew 25:31-34, 46.) If you want to be one of Jesus’ “sheep,” you must listen to the Kingdom message and act on what you learn.—Matthew 24:14.
6. Now the earth is divided up into many countries. Each has its own government. These nations often fight one another. But God’s Kingdom will replace all human governments. It will rule as the only government over the entire earth. (Daniel 2:44) Then there will be no more war, crime, and violence. All people will live together in peace and unity.—Micah 4:3, 4.
During Jesus’ Thousand Year Reign, faithful humans will become perfect, and the whole earth will become a paradise. By the end of the thousand years, Jesus will have done everything God asked him to do. Then he will hand the Kingdom back to his Father. (1 Corinthians 15:24) During Jesus’ Thousand Year Reign, faithful humans will work to turn the whole earth into a paradise. (Luke 23:43.) Also, millions of dead ones will be resurrected to human life on the earth. If they do what God requires of them, they will continue to live on earth forever.—John 5:28, 29 God’s Kingdom is a government established by Jehovah God with a King chosen by God. Jesus is the King of God’s Kingdom. Jesus as King is greater than all human rulers and is called “the King of those who rule as kings and Lord of those who rule as lords.” (1 Timothy 6:15 - He has the power to do far more good than any human ruler, even the best among them. Jehovah still purposes that “the righteous themselves will possess the earth, and they will reside forever upon it.” (Psalm 37:29)

The Book of Revelation specifically points to a time in history in the future in which the Antichrist will rule a world from a seat of power based on both socio-economic and religious control by the use of the mark of the Beast and the doctrine of the False Prophet. Therefore, it's safe to assume that America will continue it's slide down the chart of dominant cultures on the world stage and be held in the hand of one man for a brief time.

No, a one world government will never come to fruition, however a "one corporation world" will come. Political Leaders don't have the brains or the guts to take over the world , it takes a heartless, gready, incompassionate, soul-less person to care so little for his fellow man, and a love of money and power so strong, that it is the only thought occupying his evil pea-brain.

Yes. I recently responded to an email from American family radio urging us to contact our senators regarding a bill that would PREVENT us from emailing, phoning, or writing THEM (public/elected officials paid by OUR tax dollars) about our concerns regarding legislation. What is happening to democracy here? There is also a national ID in the works for us around 2008. Our rights are slowly be chipped away. I found a web site that presents alot of teaching regarding this question.

we are already being ruled by a one international authorities.....have self assurance it or no longer all of us have an "antichrist" interior of. have you ever had impure recommendations? properly i'm positive you've because you're a human residing in this phantasm. the international is getting petrified of the authorities because they are taking our freedom from us. If we proceed to stay in concern then "antichrists" will proceed to upward thrust up and make you do what you do not opt for to do. stay without concern and stay in the prompt because it truly is all you've.....As one in all my contacts has spoken.....Linear time is going to quit very quickly....Thank God! i'm waiting for the subsequent length and performance no concern!

agree with Jumbo, we're on the verge of Globalization at the very moment. all we are really waiting on is for Ireal to sign the prophecied covenant, which America's own Condi Rice has been in Israel last week and attempted to speed up the process.
no worries here, I'm ready for Christ's return.

Europe is already starting it. The European Union (EU) is the beginning. here in the Americas they're working on linking the US, Canada, and Mexico's economy through trade. the keyword here is "Globalization". It'll be here sooner than you think.

It might in about three or four thousand years, certainly not in our life times.
