Planting The Seeds of The Global Religious System

Zaadz.com is a Social Network With a Purpose. Zaadz ( Dutch for "seeds" )stated purpose is:
"Our Mission. We're gonna change the world. Our math goes like this: you be the change + you follow your bliss + you give your greatest strengths to the world moment to moment to moment + we do everything in our power to help you succeed + you inspire and empower everyone you know to do the same + we team up with millions like us = we just affected billions = we (together) changed the world."

"We’re in the process of building THE most inspired community of people in the world…social networking with a purpose, a community of seekers and conscious entrepreneurs circulating wisdom and inspiration and wealth and all that good stuff. We're passionate about inspiring and empowering people to bring their dreams to life, learning and growing and getting paid to do what they love, using their greatest gifts in the greatest service to the world." Zaad.com identifies The Best Loved Heroes & Teachers as Bhudda, Ghandi, Jesus, Mother Theresa and more. Zaad.com just announced a significant investment from Whole Foods' CEO John Mackey.

Examining Zaad's mission & objectives, one sees a striking resemblance to Rick Warren's ecumenical presentation of The P.E.A.C.E. plan. The only difference between Zaad.com and Rick Warren's network is Zaad.com does not pretend to be a church, or hide the fact that Zaad is a non-profit corporation with the purpose of creating revenue through Conscious Capitalism, run by a self-described philosopher / CEO.

Perhaps what is more startling is the resemblance of what the folks at Herescope have been discussing. For the last two months, Herescope has been putting the pieces together regarding the Church Networking Mission.
"The World Christian Movement is not a single organization, but rather a network of organizations working toward the same goal. They use many of the same resources and incorporate the same buzzwords to define and implement their mission."
--Al Dager, "U.S. Center for World Mission," The World Christian Movement (Sword, 2001) [emphasis added]

Herescope describes the following:

"The "new world order" of mission activity is vastly different. The mission movement was intentionally set up based on the systems model (also known as General Systems Theory -- see previous posts). "Networking" is more sophisticated than simple ecumenism. It is a way to burrow down deeply through organizational structures through stealth to infiltrate and diffuse new ideas that will begin to change things. Networking has the effect of leaven, when it comes to doctrine and practice, permeating an existing organization with new thoughts, new ideas, and new doctrines via missionary training, cross-pollination with other groups, partnerships, and the more sophisticated "collaboration."

Herescope has been running a series on this topic. Arm yourself with this information and share with others before the flood of deception breaches the levee.
