“This year, 2023,” boasted one of the speakers at the most recent Trilateral Commission meeting, “is year one of this new global order!”

It was a bold statement. Like a scene from a James Bond movie, a shadow government of global elites came together in India last month and declared that they are ready to rule the world and establish a One World Government.

Unfortunately, this is not a movie and the statement is not hyperbole.

The Trilateral Commission would say that they are not a secret society and they are not scheming behind closed doors. The Trilateral Commission is a group founded in 1973 by David Rockefeller, and they effectively present themselves as a harmless discussion group on world affairs seeking cooperation that will lead to the betterment of all humans. The meetings are often simple gatherings of retired foreign ministers, ambassadors, CEOs, bankers and academics, but this year’s bold statement was more than just a discussion about one world government – it was a declaration.

One of the key speakers at this years meeting openly declared, “Three decades of globalization — defined as integrated, free-market based and deflationary — has been replaced by what will be a multidecade period of globalization defined as fragmented, not-free-market-based but industrial-policy based and structurally inflationary. This year, 2023, is Year One of this new global order.”

It is not clear who made the statement at the meeting, because of security rules protecting the anonymity of the speakers. It is these kinds of statements and the secrecy of the speakers that immediately cause Christians to question. The Trilateral Commission is not just making strange statements about one world government, but their ambitions become more suspicious because they are a powerful organization, considered by many to be anti-democratic, anti-Christian and anti-Israel.

At the core of the shift is China. China is playing a bigger role in bringing the world into a more centralized control. The war in Ukraine has forced Russia to start using Chinese currency for their financial transactions instead of the US dollar. Now, for the first time ever, five nations are now using the Chinese Yuan as a trade currency.

Also, agreements like the one that took place at the Trilateral Commission between Saudi Arabia and Iran, who agreed to normalize relations, shattered Israel’s hopes for isolating Tehran. As a show of influence, the agreement between Saudi Arabia and Iran was brokered by China. The US played no part in it.

Many of the world’s largest governments, economy leaders, and communication companies are heavily influenced by China in one way or another, meaning that any one-world governtment is likely to include China – this might not seem to be the greatest outcome in the view of the many Christians who have suffered from the Chinese Communist Party.
