The annual World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland, has long been a gathering of global elites pushing their vision for a one-world government. This year, Erick Stakelbeck’s Watchman Newscast laid bare all the dangers of this movement, connecting it to biblical prophecy and warning of its profound implications for faith, freedom and sovereignty.
The Great Reset: A Secular Tower of Babel
At the center of the WEF is Klaus Schwab, whom Stakelbeck describes as “the voice of the Great Reset.” Schwab and his cohorts envision a globalized world without borders, personal ownership or God. “You will own nothing and you will be happy,” is their rallying cry. According to Stakelbeck, this is not just a political or economic agenda—it is a direct challenge to biblical principles.
“It’s like a modern-day Tower of Babel,” Stakelbeck warns. “What the Great Resetters want to do is essentially form the infrastructure for that future Beast government that the Bible talks about.” He highlights passages from Revelation, where a one-world government led by the Antichrist emerges, and sees the WEF’s efforts as laying the groundwork for this prophetic fulfillment.

The Globalist Vision vs. Biblical Sovereignty
The WEF’s agenda is a sharp contrast to the biblical model of national sovereignty and divine authority. Stakelbeck describes their ultimate goal as a “world run by bureaucratic elites… a secular, socialist world.” This includes a cashless society, digital currency and surveillance systems reminiscent of China’s social credit system, where citizens are rewarded or punished based on their allegiance to the state.
“National sovereignty? Gone. Personal privacy? Gone,” Stakelbeck states. He highlights how biblical prophecy warns of such developments, citing Daniel 2:43 (“They shall mingle themselves with the seed of men”) and Revelation’s description of a Beast system where no one can buy or sell without a specific mark.
Trump, Netanyahu and the Fight Against Globalism
Stakelbeck contrasts the WEF’s vision with leaders like Donald Trump and Benjamin Netanyahu, who have stood firm against globalist agendas. “Donald J. Trump keeps standing in the way of their larger ambitions,” he notes. During his remote address to Davos, Trump emphasized nationalism, patriotism and a Judeo-Christian worldview—values that are anathema to the Great Reset crowd.
“He laid down the gauntlet,” Stakelbeck says, recounting Trump’s commitment to America-first policies and his rejection of the Paris Climate Accord and the Green New Deal. “The Davos crowd… sees that Great Reset vision slipping away.” Netanyahu, similarly, is described as a strong, patriotic leader who prioritizes Israel’s interests and defies the globalist push.
The Biblical Prophecy Connection
Stakelbeck repeatedly ties these global developments to end-times prophecy. “The Antichrist will eventually take power of a one-world government,” he explains, calling the Great Reset a prophetic signpost. “Wars, rumors of wars, famines, pestilences… and a deception so great that it could deceive even the elect if that were possible.”
He points to the rise of technology and artificial intelligence, the push for global governance, and secularism as fulfillment of these warnings. “The Bible is clear: there will be a global government in the last days. What we’re seeing now is the infrastructure being built before our eyes.”
The People Push Back
Despite the WEF’s ambitions, Stakelbeck highlights a growing shift away from leftist policies worldwide. “Conservatives won more than half of elections in 2024,” he notes, citing the UK’s Telegraph study. This global rejection of wokeness, socialism and godlessness is what Stakelbeck calls “The Shift.”
Leaders like Giorgia Meloni in Italy, Viktor Orbán in Hungary, and Javier Milei in Argentina are part of this movement. “It’s a return to common sense,” Stakelbeck says, urging viewers to pray and support these efforts. “But ultimately, this shift goes nowhere if it doesn’t turn back to God.”
Stakelbeck’s message is clear that Christians must stay vigilant, informed and prayerful. “The Great Reset crowd is cunning,” he warns. “They will recalibrate, strategize and try again.”
He urges believers to recognize the spiritual dimension of this battle. “We’re seeing prophetic events unfold before our eyes. It’s not just political; it’s biblical.” And as the WEF’s vision faces resistance, he reminds us of the ultimate goal: “A world turned back to God.”
