The soon-coming global
reset
by: Dr. Stephen Jones
I have written for many years that the “kings of
the east” in Revelation 16:12 prophesy of China and Russia overthrowing
Mystery Babylon today. John says it would take “seven bowls” of judgment-wine
poured out over Babylon to complete the city’s overthrow. Revelation
16:12 describes the sixth bowl of wine directed at Babylon, and John’s
description shows us that these “kings” are comparable to the Medes and
Persians, who overthrew Babylon in 537 B.C.
The Medes and Persians dried up the Euphrates
River in order to walk into Babylon on dry (shallow) ground. This was
prophesied in Isaiah 44:27. King Belshazzar of Babylon was killed, Darius
the Mede established himself as the new king. Shortly afterward, when Cyrus the
Persian came to town, he issued a directive that allowed the people of Judah to
return to their old land.
In other words, the coming of the “kings of the
east” is not a bad thing, but is the way in which God is setting His people
free. Unfortunately, most modern eschatological teaching sees these “kings” as
enemies of God. They speak of a 200-million man army coming from China to
invade the land of Israel, instead of seeing it as an army that overthrows
Babylon and sets the people free.
I’m not a military man, but even I can see that
if such an army began marching west from China heading toward Israel, it would
take only one or two nukes to destroy them all. The advent of the nuclear age
after World War II made large-scale invasions nearly impossible, because
concentrated armies or fleets are so vulnerable today.
A simple look at history and the prophecies of
Isaiah 44, 45 show the fallacy of the belief that the kings of the east are the
bad guys. King Cyrus of Persia is called a “messiah” in Isaiah 45:1,
the one that God anointed to overthrow Babylon. King Darius, his chief ally
from Medea, was not mentioned directly by Isaiah, but he organized the new
kingdom into 120 provinces and installed Daniel as the chief of three
governors. This was a type of the Kingdom of God being organized, having an
outpouring of the Spirit (120) and being ruled by the saints of the Most High (Daniel 7:22).
So Revelation
16:12 speaks of the seventh bowl of divine judgment being poured out upon
Babylon, and “the kings of the east” are said to do this. It is a latter-day
prophecy taken directly from the original pattern of Cyrus and Darius, who
overthrew Babylon. The modern nations fulfilling these roles are China and
Russia. These are the nations that God has anointed to bring down Mystery
Babylon in our time.
They are not the bad guys. The bad guys are the ones who control the Western media,
attempting to demonize Russia and China. It is a propaganda war to gain the
support of as many people as possible and to justify their plans to destroy
much of the world. The ten principles on the Georgia Guide Stones sets forth
their agenda. The first principle is:
“Maintain Humanity under 500,000,000 in
perpetual balance with nature.”
They conveniently neglect telling us how this
will be accomplished. It is clear from their actions and statements that they
plan to kill about 7 billion people in the name of saving the environment. They
are already doing this by creating conflict and war, aborting the unborn
children, and creating ill health by disease, toxic substances, and unhealthy
food.
This is the Babylonian agenda. Since China has
the most to lose insofar as population is concerned, they are not going along
with this plan of destruction. And Russia has sided with them, as have all the
BRICS nations. This rising coalition is the natural enemy of Mystery Babylon.
The Glaziev Directive
Sergei Glaziev (or Glazyev) is one of Russian
President Putin’s advisors. On June 10, 2014 he issued a statement that was of
historic importance. This was reported later in an article entitled The Lost
Interview, by Jeff Yastine, who is the head of the Financial
Intelligence Report. (I used to watch Jeff on Nightly Business Report.)
The Lost Interview is where Jeff Yastine interviewed Jim Rickards, a former CIA
analyst who wrote a book entitled The Death of Money. The full interview
can be read here:
In this long interview, Jim Rickards tells us
that after the Twin Towers demolition, the CIA noticed that the unnamed
“terrorist” had placed bets that the airline stock prices would go down.
Whoever did this made a lot of money when it happened. In other words, someone
with a lot of money knew about the Twin Towers disaster before it happened, and
they positioned themselves to make money on it.
Rickards does not even give a hint to tell us
who had done this, although it seems to me that all such financial transactions
are recorded somewhere, and the CIA should have no problem finding out who did
this. If the Twin Towers had been destroyed by the media’s scapegoats, no doubt
he would have told us, for he would have no reason to hide it. Keeping it a
secret, however, reveals the truth with the sounds of silence.
No matter. The point is that the CIA and
Pentagon began tracking financial anomalies as indicators of soon-coming
“terrorist” events. Rickards said,
“The agency believed that terrorists were
trading in airline stocks before the run up to the terrorist attack…
“We found clear evidence that someone knew
the attacks were about to happen. Without getting too technical, the
terrorists were using the options markets to make big bets that airline stocks
would tank.”
The main purpose of the attack on 911, he says,
was to kill people, but the more damaging effect was to collapse the economy.
Are we to believe, then, that al-Quaeda terrorists not only planned the attacks
but also bought millions of dollars worth of options on the stock market in
order to profit from the collapse of airline stocks??
Collapsing America
By discovering the large purchase of options
against the airline stocks, He says that the CIA came to understand the
absolute vulnerability of Europe and America. They had “irrefutable evidence
that that shows this collapse is imminent and could happen at any time.”
“In fact, when the Pentagon got wind of the
shocking discoveries he made while working on a top-secret project for the CIA,
they quickly militarized his findings in preparation for the financial chaos to
come.”
He explains how America has seen three economic
collapses in the past century: 1914, 1939, and 1971. Those crises came before
the banks and economies of the world were tied together. He uses the metaphor
of ships at sea. If one goes down in a storm, the others may survive. But if
they are all tied together, and one goes down, they all go down. In other
words, the next great financial crisis in any sizable nation will take down the
rest of the world with it.
The BRICS Alliance
Turning to a more recent group of nations that
is taking steps to bring down the Western banking system, He shows how the
BRICS alliance (Brazil, Russia, India, China, South Africa) is positioning
itself outside of the Western system and is setting up its own counterpart to
the IMF in order to survive the coming collapse in finances and in trade.
Rickards describes the plan as coming in TWO STEPS.
“Their first step was outlined on June 10, under
the Glaziev Directive. A directive that spells out the first punch that will
knock the U.S. economy to the mat. And while this first hit will shake the
foundation of our financial system to the core, it’s the second punch that will
deal a deathblow to American wealth and everything you hold dear.”
He continues later, saying,
“Pen was finally put to paper on June 10, when
Vladimir Putin’s economic advisor, Sergey Glaziev, published a bold directive
where he outlined the rationale behind an international alliance of countries
[the BRICS] that were ready to get rid of the dollar for international trade
and also to stop using it as their reserve currency.
“And taking it one step further, Elvira
Nabiullina, the governor of the Russian central bank, recently stated that
Russia is in discussions with China and their BRICS partners regarding the
establishment of a new system for multilateral trade.
“It will allow the transfer of resources from
one country to another, as needed, so each member can start directing their
currency reserves away from the dollar and to the new system.”
In other words, the BRICS nations will trade
among themselves using their own currencies, instead of using the US dollar to
pay each other when goods are traded. This shift began after 911 and is a
direct consequence of 911. He forgets to mention that the BRICS nations have
every right to set up their own system, especially since the past system put an
economic strangle hold on everyone else while refusing to exercise proper
fiscal responsibility. In other words, the old system was broken and needed
replacement.
The Consequences of 911
In the 1920’s and 1930’s they (and many nations)
sent gold to the Federal Reserve Bank for safe-keeping, knowing that there was
soon coming a war with Japan. These gold shipments were not gifts, but loans,
and so they received interest-bearing receipts for them. These bonds for the
gold-loans came due at various times, but perhaps the most important were the
60-year loans in 1938 that came due in 1998.
When the Fed bankers balked at paying back the
loans, the Dragon families sued them in the World Court, winning their case.
The Federal Reserve Bank was given a deadline to pay their debt by September
12, 2001. The day before the debt was to be paid, all the records were lost in
the Twin Towers demolition. The records were held in the offices of the Cantor
Fitzgerald law firm, which one of the planes hit directly, killing their entire
staff and destroying all their records. The gold under the Tower was secretly
stolen and shipped away to a more secure, secret location, probably in
Paraguay.
There is little doubt that the same people who
had purchased the “put options” against the airline stocks were the same ones
who had refused to pay their debts to the Dragon family. The Dragon family then
experienced a “reality check,” seeing clearly that these bankers had no respect
for the law. They were ruthless and were willing to kill thousands of their own
people (Americans) and even to start a world war rather than pay their debt or
give up power.
A new approach was needed, one that was slower.
The BRICS Alliance
The foreign ministers began meeting in 2006, and
a full-scale diplomatic meeting was held in Russia in 2008. It started out with
just four nations (BRIC), but when South Africa joined them in 2010, it became
the BRICS alliance. On July 15, 2014 they set up the BRICS Development Bank as
an alternative to the IMF.
This came 70 years after the US Dollar had been
crowned king at the Bretton Woods Convention in July 1944. The Glaziev
Directive on June 10 stated the official policy for the BRICS nations. Rickards
says this Directive reveals a two-step policy to success in establishing the
alternate economic system. Its success, of course, will have a side effect of
destroying the old system. Rickards of this,
“This is step one in a coordinated effort to
unseat the U.S. dollar as the world’s reserve currency. But what’s even worse
is step two. Through my market intelligence sources, we now see that the major
governments, including the United States, the Eurozone, and China are allowing
a covert redistribution of gold so the entire system can be reset—a
preplanned, global reset of the value of money…
“It’s conspiratorial in that the governments
involved don’t want others to know what they’re doing. In truth, it’s just a
pragmatic way to stabilize the monetary system globally, and prepare the
major parties for a global reset of the value of money. A reset that will
save the system, but unfortunately, as I mentioned earlier, millions of
people are going to have everything they own virtually wiped out overnight.”
Rickards seems to admit here that this new BRICS
plan is designed to “save the system,” not that it will save the old Bretton
Woods plan, but that it will set forth a new plan that will save the world from
the collapse of fiat currencies and world trade in general.
We see, then, that the second step will be the
actual Global Currency Reset, which I have written about for some years now.
China’s accumulation of gold has been a very poorly kept secret. I am not sure
why Rickards thinks it is a secret. His point is that those who are holding
paper currency and paper contracts when this Reset hits are going to find that
their money has lost most of its value. Only those who are holding tangible
assets (such as gold or silver) will benefit by this Reset.
Those who have the most to lose are those with
retirement funds or money in the bank or currency under the mattress. Such
currency used to be “as good as gold,” until 1971 when President Nixon made it
“as good as the faith and credit of the United States.” However, since that
time, with the astronomical amounts of new money being created out of nothing,
that “faith and credit” has been severely eroded, and many nations are now very
nervous about holding US dollars.
All it will take is for one nation to scream
“Fire!” for the whole world to start bolting toward the door to get out of US
dollars. That will be the end of Babylonian world history. The power of Babylon
is bound up in the value and quantity of its money.
Rickards’ Perspective
In reading this interview, it is clear that Jim
Rickards is coming from the perspective that US hegemony (dominance) in the
world is the preferred world order. In his view, what the BRICS alliance is
doing is “bad.” He has been working against the BRICS alliance in the CIA,
hoping to slow down the demise of the US dollar.
But in a broader view, every country ought to be
as “sovereign” as they claim to be in public. Nations should not be forced (or
bribed) into any policy that is detrimental to its own well-being. However, we
have to live in “the real world,” where national sovereignty is a myth for most
nations. Hegemony is the reality. Wars are really just turf wars fought by
gangs of nations seeking more power and dominance. The people (and individual
soldiers) are the greatest victims.
After World War II, much of the world lay
devastated, while the US came out relatively unscathed. That is why the US
dollar was crowned king in 1944. That is how US hegemony became entrenched. But
the world has now rebuilt itself, and new nations are emerging with strong
economies and militaries. US hegemony is being challenged. The BRICS alliance
has banded together to challenge that hegemony and to form a new economic
alliance without being tethered to its former master—the US dollar.
Those nations have every right to buy as much
gold as they wish. And here is where it appears as if the US and China have a
common goal. In order for the US to maintain the value of its dollar, it must
manipulate the value of gold lower and lower, because all value is relative. A
low gold price means a high value for the dollar.
At the same time, China is buying gold at those
low, low bargain prices, because the new system that is coming will see money
that is backed by real assets such as gold. In other words, the manipulation
going on in the West by the price-fixing banks is playing into the hands of the
BRICS nations, especially to China and India. The longer this goes on, the more
gold they will accumulate, and the better off they will be when the Reset
occurs.
Conversely, the US will be caught without any
gold at all. Few people in the know believe that the US government really holds
8,000 tons of gold, as it claims to have. It cannot even find enough gold in
its coffers to give back what they have been storing for Germany when that
nation recently demanded its 300 tons of gold.
Again, in the 1990’s when China bought gold from
the West, it discovered that the gold was really just gold-plated tungsten.
They traced it to Fort Knox, where the gold was counterfeited. The story hit
the internet news in 2009.
Jim Rickards does not speak from a biblical
perspective. He is trying to save the old way of life in America for as long as
possible. I can appreciate that, of course, but to me it is more important to
find out what God is doing in the History of the Kingdom. Just because we have
a high standard of living in our Babylonian captivity does not mean that it
will last forever. At some point Babylon’s foundations will erode and collapse.
The Judahites in Babylon did not want to leave
either. After 70 years, most of them were well entrenched in Babylonian life
and business, and did not want to endure the trials of recolonizing their old
land. That is why so few returned with Zerubbabel.
A similar situation exists today. Babylon has
made America wealthy, largely due to the world trade tax that is imposed upon
every nation that does international trade. Because the US dollar is used for
making payments in world trade, the wire transfers have to be made in US
dollars through the SWIFT system of money transfers. All such payments go
through the Federal Reserve Bank, which takes a percentage of the transaction
as a fee. This is, in effect, a tax on all world trade.
The BRICS nations are setting up a new system of
payments through their own bank which bypasses the SWIFT system and the Federal
Reserve. Payments are being done in each country’s own currency for the
present, but soon will create its own world reserve currency made up of a
basket of currencies. In other words, world trade going through the BRICS bank
will be settled in about four specific currencies, rather than the single US
dollar. Jim Rickards concedes that because of this the US dollar is doomed.
Jeff: And when you think about it, it’s almost as if there’s no way out
of this….
Jim: You’re right.
And it is just more fuel for the fire as global players look to distance
themselves from using the dollar as the world’s reserve currency. And while
America is loath to lose its position as the world’s reserve currency, our
astronomical money printing to cover our debt makes it impossible to sustain.
Basically, we’ve overstepped our monetary bounds for good, and there is no
turning back…
I’ve had private conversations with former
Federal Reserve board members, and other central bankers around the globe, on
what’s going on behind the scenes—what’s not getting reported in the mainstream
media—and frankly, everything I’m hearing is that this global reset is about
to hit. In fact, we already know what it looks like, and when you can
expect it to happen.
So when can we expect this global reset to
happen? Rickards does not give a date, but he says essentially that it will
happen when China feels it has accumulated enough gold to secure its yuan
(currency) as part of the “basket of currencies” that will replace the US
dollar. He says,
“And while countries publicly claim that they no
longer tie their currency to the value of gold, what they are doing privately
is a different story. And China is the biggest actor in covert gold
acquisition…. And since it knows the ‘dollar’ system is coming to an end, it
has to increase its gold holdings before it can trigger a global reset of the
world’s [new] reserve currency.”
But since China’s official figures do not
match their actual holdings, we are on our own in figuring out how much they
really have, and how much they need to have before the reset. Jim says,
Jim: China’s last
official announcement was over five years ago on April 25, 2009. At that time,
it claimed to have 1,054 tonnes. That’s a 76% increase from the 600 tonnes it
had in 2003. Right now, Shanghai Daily has reported that China has quietly
amassed about 2,710 tonnes of gold.
Jeff: That’s an unofficial number.
Jim: Yes, that’s an
unofficial number. But you and I both know that China controls its media. So it
is letting it be known that it is accumulating more gold, but it is not letting
the public know exactly how much. But from what I have gathered from trusted
sources, the Chinese actually have amassed around 4,000 to 4,500 tonnes of
gold already.
Jeff: Wow, that’s a massive difference.
Jim: It is. And when
Chinese gold hits around $5,000 an ounce, all bets are off. It will be the
second punch that will deal a deathblow to the dollar. And set off the
wholesale destruction of American wealth.
The bottom line is that China is being allowed
to acquire gold without spooking the markets and driving up the price. This
way, it will be “on the train” when it leaves the station. The only problem is
that when the train leaves the station and the global reset triggers a new
reserve currency, nearly all American wealth will be wiped out, except for
those who have prepared themselves in advance…
One last thing, Jeff. Our viewers should know
that China could announce its holdings at any time. So they shouldn’t
wait to get their financial house in order. The time to act is now. Before it’s
too late….
Jeff: From what you’ve seen today, we are beyond the point of no
return, as China prepares to announce its official gold holdings at any time.
And when it does, there will be no time left to prepare yourself for the
devastation ahead.
And to think our government is helping China do
it. By suppressing the price of gold, under the guise of weakening its function
as a reserve currency, China is able to covertly acquire as much gold as it
will need to trigger the death of money as you know it.
So the bottom line here—as they see it—is that
China is holding about 4,500 tons (tonnes) of gold right now. They suggest that
their goal is to accumulate about 5,000 tons before announcing the global
currency reset. When they make this announcement, investors will realize that
the current price is totally unrealistic in view of all the secret purchases
going on in the past few years.
This will make it impossible to rig the price of
gold any longer, and it will shoot up almost immediately to at least $5,000 per
ounce. At that price, it will be able to back the new basket of currencies that
the BRICS nations are putting together to replace the US dollar as the world
currency for the next century or longer.
Meanwhile, the US has no defense against what is
coming, unless it is able to start World War III and destroy the BRICS nations
(beginning with Russia). The price-riggers have no choice but to keep the price
of gold and silver low, because that is the only way the dollar can retain its
value. But rigging the market to keep the price of gold low allows China and
India to buy gold cheaply with all the dollars they hold in their reserves.
When things change, those nations holding gold
and silver will emerge as the strongest in the world. The others will suffer
loss.
For us, it is important to see that China is
playing the role of modern Cyrus, while Russia is playing the “front man” role
of Darius. Hence, Russia taking all the heat, while China remains quiet while
backing Russia to the hilt from behind the scenes.
As believers who understand Bible prophecy, we
have no reason to fear either Russia or China. God has raised them up to
overthrow Babylon and to set us free. Jim Rikards is sounding the alarm in
order to sell more books, of course, but we can look at the facts without fear.
The fact is, the Dragon families of China are
emerging as the real power brokers in China and the BRICS alliance. They were
overthrown in 1910 when the last dynasty was overthrown and the Republic of
China was established, and have been in hiding since 1949, when the Communists
took power.
These Dragon families have made it known that
they intend to minimize the chaos as much as possible on account of the global
reset. The destruction and chaos could be greatly minimized if the Babylonian
oligarchs of the West would simply capitulate and give up power. For example,
if the US congress would agree to ratify the new IMF reforms—as the rest of the
world has already done—this transfer of power could be more amicable.
But the Western oligarchs have chosen to foment
war and to sponsor terrorism in order to cause chaos in hopes of extending
their dominance for a little while longer. This is the primary reason the
transition will cause pain to so many people. We can hardly expect anything
else from these people, and for this reason we should prepare ourselves to the
best of our ability.
As for the Dragon families, they intend to use
their enormous wealth for the benefit of mankind to rebuild the world under
Divine Order—as they understand it.
In my view, I suspect that they will need
further divine counsel through a study of God’s law in order to perfect what
they are setting up. Their main concern now is in the economic and financial
realm. Once this is established, they will see the need to change the judicial
systems of the world. They will need instructors to teach the laws set forth by
Moses, the applications of law by the prophets, and Jesus’ New Covenant
understanding of the law seen in the gospels.
