I wouldn't think it says anything. It's not a textbook. But Christians seem to be in favour of dystopian globalization: Why are they travelling all over the globe to convert people to Christianity? I'd like to see a few tribal shamans form the Congo turn up in the U.S with their campsites and holy texts trying to convert the Christian Right. Globalization should be about global inclusion, not Western cultural domination.

Globalization makes the rich nations richer and the poor nations poorer. God is against any form of materialism and economic oppression.
Luke 16,14-16
No servant can serve two masters. He will either hate one and love the other, or be devoted to one and despise the other. You cannot serve God and mammon."
14 The Pharisees, who loved money, heard all these things and sneered at him.
15
And he said to them, "You justify yourselves in the sight of others, but God knows your hearts; for what is of human esteem is an abomination in the sight of God.
Romans 14,17-19
For the kingdom of God is not a matter of food and drink, but of righteousness, peace, and joy in the holy Spirit;
18
whoever serves Christ in this way is pleasing to God and approved by others.
19
Let us then pursue what leads to peace and to building up one another.
Grace and peace to you!

It speaks of a one world government set up by the Antichrist and also a one world church, which is the whore spoken of in Revelation, also during the tribulation.
