A prominent Sustainable Development icon calls for a “total reversal of the biblical perspective on humanity,” and says that by 2052 Americans will have less wealth than they have today.
Jorgen Randers, professor emeritus of climate strategy at the BI Norwegian Business School and Executive Committee member of The Club of Rome, has written extensively on sustainability issues over the last forty-five years. His most notable works include The Limits to Growth (1972, 1992, and 2004), 2052: A Global Forecast for the Next Forty Years (2012), and Reinventing Prosperity (2016). Much of his work on sustainability is echoed in various United Nations world development goals.
Sustainable Development is Blasphemy
Christians beware: calling for a reversal of the biblical perspective of humanity for the sake of creating a sustainable future for the world is full-blown blasphemy.
Blasphemy, as used in the Bible, is understood as switching what God calls right for what is wrong, is a reproach against God, strips away God’s authority, and exchanges the truth of God for a lie (Romans 1:25).
Christian prophecy warns us of a coming blasphemous antichrist figure to rule the world:
“And he was given a mouth speaking great things and blasphemies, and he was given authority to continue for forty-two months. Then he opened his mouth in blasphemy against God, to blaspheme His name, His tabernacle, and those who dwell in heaven. It was granted to him to make war with the saints and to overcome them. And authority was given him over every tribe, tongue, and nation.” – Revelation 13:5-7
“The ten horns which you saw are ten kings who have received no kingdom as yet, but they receive authority for one hour as kings with the beast. These are of one mind, and they will give their power and authority to the beast. These will make war with the Lamb, and the Lamb will overcome them, for He is Lord of lords and King of kings; and those who are with Him are called, chosen, and faithful.” – Revelation 17:12-14
How is Sustainable Development Deceptive?
For 2,000 years, this biblical prophecy has prompted Christians to ask, “How could the world be so deceived that it would let the antichrist rise to power?”
The answer may just be “through ‘sustainable development.’” Consider these bone-chilling words from Randers:
“If I could persuade you of one thing, it should be this: the world is small and fragile, and humanity is huge, dangerous and powerful. This is a total reversal of the biblical perspective on humanity, and the way in which man has thought during most of his presence on Earth. But this is the perspective we need to take if we’re to be sure that sustainability emerges or, at least, that the world as we know it survives for a couple of hundred more years.”[1]
Sustainable Development is Bad News for Americans
The premise of Sustainable Development is that the world’s resources are limited and being quickly depleted by people of the rich nations such as the United States. European nations are also considered a threat to the planet, but are not considered as imminent a threat (see the chart below). The great fear is that unless urgent action is taken now, there won’t be enough resources available for future generations. Hence, we must “save the planet.”
The chart below illustrates the perceived likelihood of over-consumption of the world’s resources from each region of the world:

Are Americans Consuming too Much of the World's Resources?
For globalists, the logical conclusion from this chart is that North Americans are consuming much more than their “fair share” of the world’s resources. The solution to this perceived “North American” problem is to lower the standard of living for Americans via wealth redistribution schemes such as taxation, trade agreements, and immigration policies. Other schemes, as Randers explains in his 2052, include population reduction via the empowerment of women, access to free contraceptives, abortion on demand, and education for all.
In a 2012 article entitled, “8 Ways the World Will Change by 2052,” Randers predicts:
“As long as you are not a citizen of the United States, you will be richer in 2052 than you are today.”[2]
Is it just coincidence that all Democrats and even some Republicans voted against the recent tax reform bill that would reduce the tax burden for so many Americans? Or could it be that those people are complicit in the plan to reduce the wealth held by Americans? Before answering, consider that America’s foreign policy agreements indicate Americans should be greatly concerned, not only about their wealth, but also about their rights.
Agenda 2030 is Binding upon Americans
On September 25, 2015, the UN General Assembly adopted a new social resolution called “Transforming our world: the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development.” The preamble for Agenda 2030 claims it is binding upon “all countries and all stakeholders, acting in collaborative partnership.”
The Agenda 2030 resolution was signed by then-President Barack Obama, and is now an official part of the US Global Development Policy.
Everyone’s Rights are at Stake
Sustainable Development treaties based on Agenda 2030 and its successors could eventually replace the United States Constitution as our governing Social Contract. If this happens, everyone’s rights are at stake.
In America, our founders resolutely affirmed in the Declaration of Independence that “We are endowed by our Creator with certain unalienable rights, that among these are life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.”
The blasphemy against God in the name of Sustainable Development means the rejection of our Creator as the source of the equal rights of all of humanity.
According to Article 29, sections 2 and 3 of the UN’s Universal Declaration of Human Rights, our rights would come from the UN, not our Creator. Further, our rights must align with UN goals and values that reverse biblical values:
Article 29:
(2) In the exercise of his rights and freedoms, everyone shall be subject only to such limitations as are determined by law solely for the purpose of securing due recognition and respect for the rights and freedoms of others and of meeting the just requirements of morality, public order and the general welfare in a democratic society.
(3) These rights and freedoms may in no case be exercised contrary to the purposes and principles of the United Nations.
In a recent article I wrote that the UN is already using American schools to teach its principles and purposes of sustainable development. Through its education branch, UNESCO, the UN is actively replacing the deeply-held beliefs of our children and giving them a new set of values:
“Education must be transformative and bring shared values to life . . . Technological solutions, political regulation or financial instruments alone cannot achieve sustainable development. It requires transforming the way people think and act . . . Deeply entrenched beliefs take time to change. But young people are open to new perspectives, and schools are ideally positioned to convey them.” – UNESCO, Global Education First Initiative, priority #3, Foster Global Citizenship.
What Will Become of America?
America, do you really want the UN to rule over your children? Will this be the generation to witness the rise of the antichrist?

MMmmyeah...the UN is kinda shady. I mean, they have Lucis Trust, which is the Publishing House which prints and disseminates United Nations. Why is that bad? Let's remember what they were called before, "Lucifer Trust Publishing." Lucifer Trusts was incorporated in the United States in 1922 by Alice Bailey...who's basically a devil worshiper. She's as sick and discusting as they come.

@truth-be-told, Thank you for the link to the Lucis Trust website. I've been reading through that site and I'm seeing how the educational puzzle is coming together even more clearly now. I wrote a piece recently about character education in public schools, but I wish I'd had this information sooner. Every parent should be aware of this information.
It's really sick what the UN is pushing for. Ultimately, they want to be the ones to say to your kids how to think and to ignore the parent's teachings. It's a very occult organization...even their chappel is in an occult design.
I agree wholeheartedly. I have a printed copy of the UN's 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development which I reference frequently. Sustainable Development is NOT what the masses is being led to believe it is.
