Jesus Clears the Temple, Julius Schnorr von Carolsfeld (1873)
While John Calvin himself would be loath to admit that the notion "wealth indicates one is of the elect of G-d" is a direct derivation of his teachings, a great deal has been written about this perverse justification for the accumulation of material goods, most notably by Max Weber (The Protestant Ethic and the Spirit of Capitalism), R.H. Tawney (Religion and the Rise of Capitalism), and Thorstein Veblen (The Theory of the Leisure Class).
Today, one need look no further than the self-described "New World Order" to see that this is how a small group of financiers and their executive and managerial minions justify policies that are psychopathic and sociopathic in nature:
"The world can therefore seize the opportunity [the Persian Gulf crisis] to fulfill the long-held promise of a New World Order (NWO), where diverse nations are drawn together in common cause to achieve the universal aspirations of mankind."
—George H.W. Bush, on the eve of the Gulf War against Iraq, 1990."Some even believe we are part of a secret cabal working against the best interests of the United States, characterizing my family and me as 'internationalists' and of conspiring with others around the world to build a more integrated global political and economic structure—one world, if you will. If that is the charge, I stand guilty, and I am proud of it."
—David Rockefeller, Memoirs, 2003.
One must be impressed by the sheer hubris of anyone who believes that their record of death and destruction qualifies them to dictate the future of humankind, and to do so in such terms which they have made a career of defiling by treating fellow humans with contempt—as human capital, chattel, and debt-slaves.
"On the basis of political economy itself ... we have shown that the worker sinks to the level of a commodity and becomes indeed the most wretched of commodities ..."
—Karl Marx, Economic and Philosophical Manuscripts of 1844.
Indeed, by definition under capitalism, time equals money, in other words, time is monetized, rather than labor, which in a life-centered system, is the creator of value. Time is employed by usurers via interest to turn money into a commodity. Interest, then, is the theft of labor—the means by which workers are robbed of their value-creation.
This is why Jesus took a whip and drove the money changers from the Temple. In 33 C.E., when every Roman senator was a usurer,1 his action was punished by crucifixion, the penalty for sedition. It was not until centuries later—by Bishop Irenaeus of Lyon and the Council of Nicaea—that the blame was shifted to the Jews (becoming the root cause of anti-Semitism in Christianity and, by reference, in Islam).
"If you have money, do not lend it at interest, but give it to one from whom you will not get it back."
—The Gospel of Thomas (95), The Gnostic Bible, edited by Willis Barnstone and Marvin Meyer, Shambhala, Boston & London, 2003, p. 66. (The Gospel of Thomas, as well as other texts found at Nag Hammadi [Gnostic Gospels] and Qumran [Dead Sea Scrolls], predate the texts that were edited and combined by Bishop Irenaeus of Lyon [3rd Century C.E.] and the Council of Nicaea [4th Century C.E.] to form what is currently used as the Christian Bible.)
It was not only interest that Jesus found objectionable in capitalism; he rejected the notion of a system that intrinsically creates an ever-larger gap between the haves and the have nots:
"Then [Jesus] said to them, 'Watch out! Be on your guard against all kinds of greed; a man's life does not consist in the abundance of his possessions.'"
—Luke 12:15"I say unto you, it is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle, than for a rich man to enter into the kingdom of God."
—Matthew 19:24
Essentially, Jesus was a socialist, a believer in the sovereignty of the people, not in the suzerainty of commodities or political and corporate entities, such as Rome in his day, or such as the Anglo-Euro-American banking cartel and its subsidiary corporations and governments in our day.
His teachings have now been corrupted into corporate Christianity (dubbed Christian Fascism by Chris Hedges, which is clearly evident in its violence), a capitalist church by which—judging from the display of wealth (and perversion) among the so-called priesthood and many of the "practitioners" of both the orthodox, reformed, and evangelical versions, as well as the support given by their organizations to the corporate state and its imperial goals—the sociopaths justify their crimes against humanity.
In fact, the financiers believe that they sewn up control over the planet:
"We are grateful to The Washington Post, The New York Times, Time Magazine and other great publications whose directors have attended our meetings and respected their promises of discretion for almost forty years. We would have found it quite impossible to develop our global project if we had been subject to the public spotlight during these years. But, the world has grown more sophisticated and willing to move towards a global government that no longer knows war, but only peace and prosperity for all of humanity. The supranational sovereignty of an intellectual elite and world bankers is surely preferable to the national self-determination practiced in past centuries." —David Rockefeller, June 5, 1991, in an address to the Bilderberger meeting in Baden Baden, Germany (a meeting also attended by then-Governor Bill Clinton), as reported and translated from the September, 1991, issue of the Monte Carlo-based Hilaire du Berrier Report (also reported elsewhere in the French press, including Minutes, June 19, 1991 and Lectures Francaises, July/August, 1991). Mr. du Berrier closely followed and chronicled the activities of Bilderberg and its overlapping groups, for over four decades."The nation state as a fundamental unit of man’s organized life has ceased to be the principal creative force: International banks and multinational corporations are acting and planning in terms that are far in advance of the political concepts of the nation-state." —Zbigniew Brzezinski, Between Two Ages: America’s Role in the Technetronic Era, 1971.
As noted, of the many fatal flaws in their plan to control the entire world, hubris plays a central role. Believing in the Calvinist creed that their wealth signifies they are of the elect, the Rockefellers have led the way in implementing eugenics programs aimed at depopulating the world, as we detailed in our article, Eugenics and Capitalism.
It was from the Rockefeller playbook that the Nazis carried out their extermination program under Josef Mengele, the "Angel of Death" at Auschwitz, who worked for the Rockefellers before implementing the "Final Solution."
Following in Mengele's footsteps today is Bill Gates, who is charged with global depopulation and computerized control over those who remain alive, to serve as the cartel's AI trans-human debt-slaves. Take it from Gates himself, explaining how his "experimental" vaccine will change human DNA in this interview posted on July 27, 2020.
A few months earlier, on May 6, 2020, Mr. Gates admitted in another interview that 700,000 may die from his vaccine. By their own admission, Gates and all his co-conspirators are guilty of crimes against humanity and should be arrested and prosecuted according to the Nuremberg principles.
As a number of reports have noted, the plans are in place to insert nano-technology in the vaccine to control the digital monetary credits of every inoculated person, as well as to control various brain functions (and here, here, and here).
Clearly, we are at the crossroads of human history. Will it be evolution or slavery?
Our strategy for global economic and spiritual transformation is detailed in our previous article, October surprise! Forget the red-blue-green political party marketing brands; here's our platform!
