The Bible describes a future period in which authority is concentrated not solely in traditional kingdoms, but in a limited number of powerful figures who operate beyond national boundaries. And that is why I am paying close attention to President Trump’s Board of Peace.
Here are some fast facts:
1) President Trump will serve as chairman and wield considerable overall control. It will help resolve conflicts globally. He has the sole authority to invite new members and appoint a successor.
2) Global peace seems to be their goal, though they will participate in other global duties as well. The immediate focus of the Board of Peace will be Gaza, though there was no word about Gaza in the charter.
3) A lot of Godless people seem to be in charge, such as Steve Witkoff, Jared Kushner, Tony Blair, and almost 60 more movers and shakers. Most have a worldly view of the world and of “peace.”
4) Though originally announced as the international body created to oversee the rebuilding and initial governance of Gaza, the document curiously never mentions Gaza. Why not? Does President Trump envision this as the beginnings of an alternative or replacement to the United Nations? At face value, that sounds like a great idea!
5) The price tag for a nation-state being a member is $1 billion. That eliminates some third-world countries, and maybe that is good. The Somalias of the world will have to watch from afar.
6) Most European countries, including the United Kingdom, France, and Germany, have declined a position on the board, leading to significant dominance of the Middle Eastern Arab states on the Board of Peace.
7) The Board of Peace will be run by artificial intelligence and is clearly preparing the Mark of the Beast system. It seems to be setting up the Antichrist end-time system.
8) The newly established Board of Peace is organized into a tiered hierarchy of multiple levels of oversight committees.
9) Russia has been invited. How can a country engaged in a brutal war be a part of a Board of Peace?
10) The Pope has been invited, too. An end-time establishment is surely not complete without participation from the Vatican! The world awaits a spiritual leader!
11) Israel is invited but is outraged to be on a platform with the likes of Qatar and Turkey.
12) The Board of Peace seeks to promote stability, restore dependable and lawful governance, and secure enduring peace in areas affected or threatened by conflict.
13) Questionable and shady outfits, such as the World Economic Forum, may participate. These people aren’t elected, and plenty are shady characters. It has been suggested that many participants are kings without kingdoms.
14) Prophecy News Watch says it best: “A peace guaranteed by outsiders. Power consolidated in elite hands. Decisions about Israel made far from Jerusalem. A world growing comfortable with governance by committee rather than covenant.”
15) Since organizers claim it will solve all the world’s problems, it is Tribulation-esque and could be preparing the way for a global leader. That is likely not President Trump, but keep your eyes on Jared Kushner, who is truly one of the world’s most powerful unelected leaders.
Again, quoting Prophecy News Watch, “Daniel speaks of rulers who arise suddenly, wield influence disproportionate to their origins, and play decisive roles in confirming agreements that directly impact Israel. Revelation later describes ten kings who rule briefly, not over historic empires, but through shared authority–leaders who ultimately ‘give their power’ to one central figure.”
The Board of Peace will undoubtedly shut out the Prince of Peace and thus will fail. Additionally, the Bible says, “While people are saying, ‘There is peace and security,’ then sudden destruction will come upon them as labor pains come upon a pregnant woman, and they will not escape.” (I Thess. 5:3).
Keep your eye on this outfit, however. It is clearly setting the stage.
