The Coming Superstate

Superstates have existed in various forms through the ages, but not in the way they are forming today. Many world leaders are planning on creating a system that will exercise hegemony over the whole world. Their plans will eventually lead to a beast system that will rule over the earth. But then a superstate will come on the scene and usher in the true Millennium.

by Don Ward

Colloquial use of the word super implies that which is of great excellence and strength.

In the technical sense, super denotes that which is above or superior in rank. So super denotes that which is over, above or beyond and a superstate is a state that is over or beyond other states.

Nimrod creates superstate

Shortly after the Flood, God divided the earth among the families of Noah (Genesis 10:32). As they journeyed from the east they came to the land of Shinar. At Shinar, Nimrod led a rebellion against God's command for the descendants of Noah to re-colonize the earth. He knew that it would be impossible for him to rule over the families of the earth if they were scattered abroad. So he inspired the building of a tower that the people would look to so they would not be scattered abroad (Genesis 11:4). But God intervened and confounded the languages of the people, thus forcing them to be scattered through the earth.

As the families of Noah settled their lands they eventually developed into nation-states. God is the author of families, tribes and nations. God's historic desire is for nation-states to live according to His laws. The government of nation-states is supposed to serve the people of that nation. Just as a loving father provides for the needs of his family, the nation-state should provide for the needs of all its families. God gave the families of Noah an inheritance in the earth. That inheritance or land was given to those people to sustain them. It was theirs to have and to hold. Thus the nation-state is to maintain sovereignty over its land and people. Sovereignty means that nations have the right to hold their land and govern their people.
