This Week’s Television Broadcast
God's Ultimate New World Order Week of November 14, 2010
Writers, dreamers, and futurists have described "golden ages" and "utopias" of various sorts, to be brought about by the upward evolution of man to a perfect state. The true golden age, God's Millennium, will be brought about in spite of man, not because of him.

Have you ever really studied the words and lyrics of the familiar and beloved Christmas song, "Joy To The World?" In reality, most of the song has to do with Jesus' Second Coming and his reign over all the world during the Millennium!
Pastor Jeremiah mentions this fact in this week's television broadcast. When you hear what he has to say along with what the words in the song convey, you might agree that "Joy To The World" distinctly describes the Second Coming of Jesus Christ.
Read the lyrics:
Joy To The World
Joy to the world! The Lord is come.
Let earth receive her King
Let every heart
Prepare Him room
And Saints and angels sing
And Saints and angels sing
And Saints and Saints and angels sing
Joy to the world, the Saviour reigns
Let Saints their songs employ
While fields and floods
Rocks, hills and plains
Repeat the sounding joy
Repeat the sounding joy
Repeat, Repeat, the sounding joy
Joy to the world with truth and grace
And makes the nations prove
The glories of His righteousness
And wonders of His love
And wonders of His love
And wonders and wonders of His love
No more will sin and sorrow grow,
Nor thorns infest the ground;
He'll come and make the blessings flow
Far as the curse was found,
Far as the curse was found,
Far as, far as the curse was found.
He rules the world with truth and grace,
And gives to nations proof
The glories of His righteousness,
And wonders of His love;
And wonders of His love;
And wonders, wonders of His love.
Rejoice! Rejoice in the Most High,
While Israel spreads abroad
Like stars that glitter in the sky,
And ever worship God,
And ever worship God,
And ever, and ever worship God.
At the website where I found a copy of the lyrics, there are several paragraphs written which includes the idea that this song has more to do with Jesus' Second Coming than with his birth in Bethlehem.
The words and lyrics of the old Christmas carol "Joy to the World" were written in 1719 by Isaac Watts. The father of John Watts was a Non-conformist and so extreme were his views that he was imprisoned twice. His father's influence over Isaac was demonstrated when he choose to attend Nonconformist Academy at Stoke Newington in preference to a University. Watts was ordained as a Pastor of an Independent congregation.
"Joy to the World" is one of the best-known and best-loved of Christmas carols. It contains a message of joy and love replacing sin and sorrow. It may also be interpreted to be about life after the second coming of Christ. The hymn is significant for its widespread use throughout Christian denominations and for the musical stature of the people who created it.

I believe it was not written as a Xmas Carol. It wouldn't surprise me if the PC brigade try to ban it soon. Hark The Herald Angels Sing. God Rest Ye Merry Men. These too may be targeted by atheists etc. Strange though how people sing along without thinking about the lyrics. I recall a manager I worked for singing along merrily to the David Gray's Babylon. I asked him what the song was about, he had no idea.
