World War II was only a foreshadow of the world that is yet to come. Eventually, England will soon be leaving the EU and I think will probably join into another economic group comprised of Great Britain, Canada, Australia, South Africa and the USA! France, The Netherlands, Denmark and Scandinavia may also be in this economic union (read What Modern Nations Makeup the LOST TEN TRIBES of ISRAEL. There are some mistakes in this, but the basic principal is correct)
I will have someother eye-opening stories in the coming months about general trends that we should be watching for. Unlike the scam preachers out there, I don't have any idea when the Kingdom of God is coming to Earth. I do know with certainty that it will happen in the future. Our jobs are not to predict when, but to be watching for the signs….
Over 75 years ago, Herbert and Garner Ted Armstrong made astounding predicts about Europe that have all proven to be true. Europe, under the Papacy is the Beast of Revelation, and we are to look to Europe for prophecy fulfillment – NOT RUSSIA!
Today in the Daily Mail is this story. We are seeing the emergences of a militarized Europe that will become this BEAST Government of Revelation. Always WATCH events in EUROPE!
Some excertps:
Donald Trump's election as US President has sparked fresh call for an EU army, amid a warning that the continent will not always be able to rely on American protection. The president of the European Commission, Jean-Claude Juncker, voiced his concerns after the Republican's surprise victory was announced. He said a 'community of defence' is required.
Juncker said: 'We need more security in Europe, and I do not mean just the anti-terror fight. n 'Talking about security we need a different way of organizing a European defense.'
He said that the French National Assembly prevented a proposed European community of defence being created in 1954 – a move that could have seen an army created, but was rejected amid concerns about national sovereignty.
Juncker said: 'We need it now. The idea that the Americans will eternally see to… European security is not true.
British Defence Secretary Michael Fallon rubbished the idea of a shared European army last month, stating: 'We continue to oppose any new military structure that would introduce a second layer of command and control. Command and control is a matter for the military, it is a matter for Nato.
‘When it was last discussed by EU defence ministers, there was very strong opposition to any kind of EU military command headquarters from Sweden, Poland, the Baltic states, even from the Netherlands, which is sometimes sympathetic to some of these EU proposals, they very strongly opposed that kind of duplication.
‘So this is not simply Britain, there is widespread EU concern about any duplication.’
Other Armstrong predictions that came true:
Armstrong made these predictions in 1959 when I was only 4 years old!
1) a "United States of Europe" would form in central Europe, comprising more than 250 million people; a huge industrial, economic and military power which would eventually challenge the United States; that a 10-nation combine would form which would fulfill the Bible prophecy of the "Beast" which would fight Jesus Christ at His return. The PLAIN TRUTH, June, 1952, p. 11: "The 10 `horns'…in the 17th chapter [of the Book of Revelation] …will be…the revival of the BEAST, the Roman Empire, `out of the bottomless pit,' by a `United States of Europe,' or federation of 10 European nations within the bounds of the old Roman Empire" (that includes such nations as mentioned above, in eastern Europe!).
2) That Germany would reunite (unthinkable in the 1950's:) The PLAIN TRUTH, October, 1964, p. 48: "Germany—A UNITED GERMANY with her former territories restored—is ready to emerge as the strongest nation on earth at the head of a revitalized…Europe! The power colossus is then going to deal a death blow to the United States and Britain…"
CHINA is mentioned in end time prophecies as these “kings of the east”?
In April 1952, even
while West Germany was rebuilding after being bombed to ashes in World War II, Armstrong predicted “Russia may give EastGermany back to the Germans and will be forced to relinquish her control over Hungary, Czechoslovakia and parts of Austria to complete the ten-nation union.” in 1955—over 41/2 decades before Eastern Europe split from the USSR: “Some of the Balkan
nations are going to tear away from behind the Iron Curtain. Russia has lost already, to all appearances, Tito’s Yugoslavia. Russia probably will lose still more of her Eastern European satellites.” In May, 1968—seven years before the unconditional surrender of South Vietnam to communism he stated, “Bible prophecy reveals that not even America, with all of her nuclear muscle, can prevent Southeast Asia from eventually being overrun by communism.”
