Warren's PEACE Plan and the United Nations

The P.E.A.C.E. Plan is a massive, long range effort to mobilize one billion Christians in local churches around the world to copy Jesus' model of ministry.ⁱ

The vision of the PEACE PLAN is to mobilize Christians around the world to address five GIANT PROBLEMS:

* Spiritual Emptiness
* Self-Serving Leadership
* Poverty
* Disease
* Illiteracy

The church was designed by God to take the lead in this effort. It has the world's largest distribution network, the most people ready to serve, and the greatest motivation of all—the LOVE of Jesus Christ.ⁱⁱ

The P.E.A.C.E. plan will be a "revolution" for global Christianity, Warren told the congregation. "I stand before you confidently right now and say to you that God is going to use you to change the world," Warren said. "Some will say, 'That's impossible,' but I heard that line 25 years ago, and God took seven people and started Saddleback Church. Now we have a new vision and a whole lot more people to start with. "The great evangelist Dwight L. Moody said, 'The world has yet to see what God can do with a man fully consecrated to him,'" Warren said. "I'm looking at a stadium full of people who are telling God they will do whatever it takes to establish God's Kingdom 'on earth as it is in heaven.'ⁱⁱⁱ

So, what's the problem? Why should we be concerned that Saddleback is trying to help people around the world?

Q: What is your greatest hope for all this?  A: A second Reformation. The first one was about belief. This one will be about deeds. It is about what the church should be doing in the world....

Rick Warren wrote to WorldNetDaily Editor Joseph Farah, "as a member of the Council on Foreign Relations and Oxford Analytica, I might know as much about the Middle East as you."^iv

The Council on Foreign Relations is leading the way toward global government, along with other organizations such as the Trilateral Commission and Bilderberger Group.

High-Level Event on the  Millennium Development Goals World leaders will come together in New York on 25 September 2008 for a high-level event to renew their commitment to achieving the Millennium Development Goals by 2015 and to set out concrete plans and practical steps for action. The eight Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) – which range from halving extreme poverty to halting the spread of HIV/AIDS and providing universal primary education, all by the target date of 2015 – form a blueprint agreed to by all the world’s countries and all the world’s leading development institutions. They have galvanized unprecedented efforts to meet the needs of the world’s poorest.
