On November 11, 2022, President Joe Biden spoke at the COP27 climate summit in Egypt. The President promised that the United States would be a “global leader” in the fight against climate change by reducing greenhouse gas emissions by 50% by 2030. Remember, back in 2020, the National Catholic Reporter stated that the Joe Biden administration’s climate policies reflected the “spirit of Laudato Si” and that they were in alignment with Pope Francis’ “repeated calls for personal and collective ‘ecological conversion’ as expressed in Laudato Si’.” [1]
The climate crisis is about human, economic, environmental, and national security. But with innovation and cooperation, I know the COP27 will deliver a better world for all of our children.

In his speech at COP27, President Joe Biden stated the following:
• “My friends, I came to the presidency determined to make transformational changes that are needed, that America needs to make and we have to do for the rest of the world, to overcome decades of opposition and obstacles of progress on this issue alone,” Biden said, “to reestablish the United States as a trustworthy and committed global leader on climate. As I stand here before you, we’ve taken enormous strides to achieve that.” [2]
• “To permanently bend the emissions curve, every nation has needs to step up,” he said. “At this gathering, we must renew and raise our climate ambitions. The United States is acting. Everyone has to act. It’s a duty and responsibility of global leadership.” [2]
• “He highlighted a new proposed rule requiring large federal contractors to develop carbon reduction targets and disclose their greenhouse gas emissions, leveraging the federal government’s purchasing power to combat climate change in the private sector and bolster vulnerable supply chains.” [2]
• “Biden also announced new rules from his administration intended to further clamp down on super-polluting greenhouse gas methane. The Environmental Protection Agency plans to further strengthen an earlier regulation it announced to cut down on methane pollution from the oil and gas sector. As proposed, the updated rule would reduce methane emissions from oil and gas by 87% below 2005 levels.” [2]
• “The climate crisis is about human security, economic security, environmental security, national security and the very life of the planet,” Biden said.” [2]
The world’s foremost supporter of Pope Francis’ climate agenda is Joe Biden. He is urging world leaders to take action. This global action involves more than just the weather. He refers to the climate crisis as a human, economic, and national security crisis. In other words, the climate is the biggest issue we currently face and it will have an impact on every aspect of our lives.
Additionally, President Joe Biden has just pledged to intensify the fight against climate change by leveraging the strong economic power of the United States. Joe Biden is guiding the world’s nations in this campaign to save the world, which Pope Francis is also devoted to by advancing Laudato Si’. These are the two powers described in Revelation 13 that will impose plans to undermine our long-standing values of liberty and freedom. It is coming. There is no doubt about that.
The United States is in a position of power to make not only this nation but the entire world honor the first beast, the papacy, by enforcing its decrees (Revelation 13:2). This is what we see happening. Everyone—politicians, religious leaders, and business leaders—are joining Rome, and this is certainly healing her deadly wound (Revelation 13:3). The only piece of the puzzle that has yet to take shape is for a sitting president of the United States, the second beast, to implement the worship of Rome, the first beast, by establishing a national Sunday law (Revelation 13:12).
What we need now is for God’s people to rise up and finish the work that has been entrusted to us. It is the church that needs to fulfill its God-given role while there is still time.

From transcript on whitehouse.gov, and a portion of the audio I had heard on the radio: “…the United States government is putting our money where our mouth is to strengthen accountability for climate risk and resilience.”
Very interesting (or prophetic) to use “mouth” considering Revelation 13:15: “And he had power to give life unto the image of the beast, that the image of the beast should both speak, and cause that as many as would not worship the image of the beast should be killed.” May God grant us wisdom and strength for these times.

He left out that this is a religious issue!!! I feel sorry for Biden. When the Catholic Church is finished with him, they will discard him like a piece of trash! Sadly, all the deaths at the southern border, all the Fentanyl deaths, all the misery that will be put on the American people will be on his head alone in the judgement. He is being used like a pawn in the whole scheme of things.
I would hate to think that the only consolation would be that the pope said that I had done a good job for the Catholic Church!!! What a sad commentary…….

Hello bro Andy,
You mentioned in the last line of your presentation…It is the church that needs to fulfill its God-given role while there is still time. I have a couple question:
1. Is the church important? If so, why didn’t Abraham, Moses, Elijah, Daniel, John or even Jesus go to church?
2. How do we finish the work, if there is no more time and we’re running to the hills to avoid covid shots or FEMA internment camps?
Thank you for kind reply.

The Church of Christ is not 🚫 a building or religious organization.
It is people whose sins have been forgiven and cleansed by the blood of Christ.
They become, the redeemed of The Lord and temples of the holy spirit where Christ dwells by His spirit.
Once redeemed,you have become”a Livingstone”.
U are the church.
