SUDDEN RISE OF POPULISM WORLD WIDE AND IT'S SIGNIFICANCE IN THE RISE OF ANTI-CHRIST






Populism is a political style of action that mobilizes a large alienated element of population against a government seen to be controlled by an out-of-touch closed elite that acts on behalf of its own interest.

It cuts across political divides; populist ideology can be left, right or middle. Its goal is to unite the unsophisticated, the lumpen proletariat against the corrupt dominant settled elite, the bourgeoisie.

It is effectively a government of the common man, guided by the belief that political and social goals are best achieved by the direct actions of the masses. Often times, it comes into being when mainstream political institutions fail to deliver.

What Cause The Sudden Rise of Populism 

Widespread anger over the growing gap between rich and poor led to the rise of populism in the world's largest economy - the United States.

Eight billionaires have wealth equal to that owned by 3.6 billion people who make up the poorest half of world's population, a new report issued by the international charity organization Oxfam showed Monday.
"New estimates show that just eight men own the same wealth as the poorest half of the world. As growth benefits the richest, the rest of society – especially the poorest – suffers," the report said.
In a statement published on the website of the organization, Oxfam International Executive Director Winnie Byanyima stressed that the wages of ordinary people stagnated, while corporations' heads increased their wealth by dodging taxes.
Oxfam has called on the world leaders "to play their part in building a human economy."
The report has come on the eve of the World Economic Forum, which annually takes place in the Swiss town of Davos around late January-early February and gathers world political and business leaders. The opening ceremony is set for January 17.




The gap between the super-rich and the poorest half of the world's population is starker than previously thought, with just eight men, including Bill Gates and Michael Bloomberg, owning as much wealth as 3.6 billion people, according to an analysis by Oxfam released Monday.
Presenting its findings on the dawn of the annual gathering of the global political and business elites in the Swiss ski resort of Davos, anti-poverty organisation Oxfam says the gap between the very rich and poor is far greater than just a year ago. It's urging leaders to do more than pay lip-service to the problem.
If not, it warns, public anger against this kind of inequality will continue to grow and lead to more seismic political changes akin to last year's election of Donald Trump as US president and Britain's vote to leave the European Union.
"It is obscene for so much wealth to be held in the hands of so few when one in 10 people survive on less than $2 a day," said Winnie Byanyima, executive director of Oxfam International, who will be attending the meeting in Davos. "Inequality is trapping hundreds of millions in poverty; it is fracturing our societies and undermining democracy."
The same report a year earlier said that the richest 62 people on the planet owned as much wealth as the bottom half of the population. However, Oxfam has revised that figure down to eight following new information gathered by Swiss bank Credit Suisse. 
The eight billionaires named in the report are Microsoft founder Mr Gates, who has a personal fortune of $75bn according to Forbes; Inditex founder Amancio Ortega ($67bn), veteran investor Warren Buffett ($60.8bn) Mexico's Carlos Slim ($50bn), Amazon boss Jeff Bezos ($45.2bn), Facebook's Mark Zuckerberg ($44.6bn), Oracle's Larry Ellison ($43.6bn) and former New York City mayor Michael Bloomberg ($40bn).

It's because of this kind of inequality that trust in institutions has fallen sharply since the global financial crisis of 2008, according to Edelman, one of the world's biggest marketing firms.
In its own pre-Davos survey of more than 33,000 people across 28 markets, Edelman found the largest-ever drop in trust across government, business, media and even non-governmental organisations. CEO credibility is at an all-time low and government leaders are the least trusted group, according to the survey.
The firm's 2017 Trust Barometer found that 53 percent of respondents believe the current system has failed them in that it is unfair and offers few hopes for the future, with only 15 percent believing it is working. That belief was evident for both the general population and those with college education.
"The implications of the global trust crisis are deep and wide-ranging," said Richard Edelman, the firm's president and CEO. "It began with the Great Recession of 2008, but like the second and third waves of a tsunami, globalisation and technological change have further weakened people's trust in global institutions.
The consequence is virulent populism and nationalism as the mass population has taken control away from the elites."
According to the survey, search engines are trusted more as an information tool than traditional news editors, 59 percent to 41 percent.
"People now view media as part of the elite," said Edelman. "The result is a proclivity for self-referential media and reliance on peers. The lack of trust in media has also given rise to the fake news phenomenon and politicians speaking directly to the masses."

Populist parties are on the rise across Europe

Unemployment and austerity, the arrival of record numbers of refugees and migrants in France, Belgium and Germany have left voters disillusioned with conventional parties and led to a rise of Islamophobic sentiment and anti-refugee views.

In Germany, far-right leaders met at a conference amid protests on Saturday. 
French far-right leader, Marine Le Pen, told several hundred supporters in the German city of Koblenz that Britain's vote last year to leave the European Union would create a "domino effect". 



A day after Trump took office in the US, Le Pen said his inauguration speech included "accents in common" with the message of reclaiming national sovereignty by the far-right leaders.
"2016 was the year the Anglo-Saxon world woke up. I am sure 2017 will be the year the people of continental Europe wake up," she said to loud applause.
Le Pen - head of the anti-European Union, anti-immigrant National Front and seen by pollsters as highly likely to make a two-person runoff vote for the French presidency in May - has marked out Europe as a major plank in her programme.

More than 3,000 demonstrators gathered to protest against the Koblenz conference, while some staged a sit-in outside the hall. 
Also in attendance was Dutch hardliner Geert Wilders, who used the platform to repeat Islamophobic rhetoric, the central theme of policies that have pushed his Party for Freedom to the front in the polls in the run-up to elections in March.
The leaders of Europe's established parties were "promoting our Islamisation", Wilders said in a speech.

European women were now "frightened of showing their blonde hair", the Dutch politician said, addressing the enthusiastic audience in German.
This year's Election in Germany, France and Netherlands can also leads to Populist leaders in these super nations. 

The Connection Between Rise of Populism And The Rise of Antichrist 

Populism could lead to the election of "false saviours" like Adolf Hitler, which is a type of the Antichrist. 

The idea of using walls and barbed wire to keep out foreigners, among them refugees and migrants which is one of Donald Trump legacy require a close watching. 

The example of populism in the European sense of the word is Germany in 1933.  Germany ... was looking for a leader, someone who would give her back her identity and there was a little man named Adolf Hitler who said 'I can do it'. 
Remember, Hitler did not steal power. He was elected by his people and then he destroyed his people.
The Germans at that time also wanted to protect themselves with walls and barbed wire so that others cannot take away their identity. The case of Germany is classic," he said, adding that Hitler gave them a deformed identity and we know what it produced. 

Neal Frisby wrote and I quote.. 
"According to the Scripts and the Scriptures
scores of events will culminate simultaneously as the age ends!
said, the end thereof shall be with a flood!" (flood of events)
"Accordingly, the Scripts reveal a sudden surge of political, financial, social, scientific and religious changes will take place dramatic and powerful! 
This leader (the antichrist) is alive now. . . peaceful, but very deceptive!" - Dan. 11:21, "states the shadow of his coming . . . and in vrs. 39-45 shows the height of his power and his meteoric fall!" - Verse 23, "it seems his rise
will be out of a small kingdom . . . but like magic itself is able to take over the world! - He is hidden now, but soon will be revealed! - He will control all false religions, the Vatican and the apostate Protestants, and chief prince of the Jews, sitting in the Temple. . . a false god!" (Dan. 9:26-27) - "Although still submerged, his presence is felt in many of the
events that are occurring today!"
"Although he rises up from a small nation of people, Rev. 17:2-13 reveals suddenly 10 nations will back him; and
will grow in power and authority and will be a dictator over all races, languages and nations! - He definitely is rising up out of the old revived Roman Empire (The EuropeanUnion). Controlling the east and the west with his iron fists; and the prophet was perfectly right!" (Dan. 2:41-42)
End of Quote... 

Conclusion
Populism seems good to the masses, so that they can enjoy the benefits of democracy. But, this is also a plan to give way for the Antichrist to rise out of small nation and then spread his influence all over the world. It seems we will witness the rise of false messiahs in the elections coming up between now and next two years, so these elections worth close watching by an elect of God. 
None withstanding I see God hands doing this so that His prophecy can come to pass.... 
The time is very short, we must do our best as Christians to preach the Gospel, not only that but warn the unbelivers and the foolish Christians that the Rapture is close.

Note: As long as a child of God is still in Babylon, then he should count him/herself out of going up in the Rapture.
