Accelerated Arms-Buildup
28 July 2023
German Ministry of Economy seeks dismantlement of democracy to accelerate arms-buildup.
VILNIUS/BERLIN (Own report) – Led by Minister Robert Habeck (the Greens) the German Federal Ministry for Economic Affairs and Climate Action is putting the parliament’s right to have a say in major military procurements into question, according to an expertise presented by Habeck’s advisors on Tuesday. The Green-led ministry is hoping to save time in the arms-buildup, by curtailing democratic processes. Last April, Defense Minister Boris Pistorius (SPD) declared the “time factor” to be the essential criterion in his reform of military procurement. In the current procurement reform, transatlantic voices are gaining the upper hand, favoring a rapid upgrading in the Bundeswehr’s capabilities, at the expense of the promotion of an independent European arms industry. This is provoking new tensions with France. Germany is conducting its arms buildup largely within the NATO framework. The military alliance has recently confirmed its armament policy at its Vilnius summit. The NATO members agreed on further measures allowing them “to respond faster and at a greater scale.”
No Time for Parliamentary Control
For major arms projects, the German government is still currently dependent on approval by the Bundestag’s budget committee. In an expertise by the Federal Ministry for Economic Affairs and Climate Action, advisors of Minister Robert Habeck have concluded that parliamentary controls tend to “drag out” the procurement procedure,[1] and should thus be abandoned. In addition, the ministry is opposing privileged consideration for European arms manufactures in awarding contracts. “Providers from other NATO countries, particularly from the USA,” could be excluded under current rules, the experts note. The rapid and concrete upgrading of the Bundeswehr’s capabilities would, however, be more important than the promotion of an independent European arms industry through special protectionist rules. …
The German defense ministry had already arrived at similar conclusions in April. According to the ministry, the Bundeswehr must again be enabled to fight “in larger formations.”[2] …
Whereas transatlantic hardliners want to arm Germany in order to relieve the USA in European conflicts and reinforce the transatlantic block, supporters of a strategic autonomy seek a militarily stronger Germany at the center of the EU, which is capable of shedding its dependence on the USA.
Yes, there are debates in Germany about it being more supportive of the USA militarily or that it should lead an independent European force.
Well, biblically, we know Europe will end up with a “great army” (Daniel 11:25) and many ships (Daniel 11:40)–and perhaps some of those ships will be air ships.
Biblically, we also know that Europe will reorganize (Revelation 17:12) to become a dictatorship ruled by one the Bible calls the Beast (Revelation 17:13)–who is also called the King of the North in Daniel 11.
We also know that the USA will be destroyed by a German-dominated European Beast power:
5 “Woe to Assyria, the rod of My anger And the staff in whose hand is My indignation. 6 I will send him against an ungodly nation, And against the people of My wrathI will give him charge, To seize the spoil, to take the prey, And to tread them down like the mire of the streets. 7 Yet he does not mean so, Nor does his heart think so; But it is in his heart to destroy,And cut off not a few nations. 8 For he says,’ Are not my princes altogether kings? 9 Is not Calno like Carchemish? Is not Hamath like Arpad? Is not Samaria like Damascus? 10 As my hand has found the kingdoms of the idols, Whose carved images excelled those of Jerusalem and Samaria, 11 As I have done to Samaria and her idols, Shall I not do also to Jerusalem and her idols?'” (Isaiah 10:5-11)
The reference to Assyria relates to Germany (see Germany’s Assyrian Roots Throughout History and Germany in Biblical and Roman Catholic Prophecy), while the references to Samaria relate to the USA (see Spiritual Samaritans: Old and New).
Notice also that the Bible shows that this European King of the North will destroy those who are perceived to have the strongest military might and then somehow divide up their land:
39 Thus he shall act against the strongest fortresses with a foreign god, which he shall acknowledge, and advance its glory; and he shall cause them to rule over many, and divide the land for gain (Daniel 11:39).
The “strongest fortresses” at this time belong to the USA–and it will be defeated!
Daniel 11:24 also seems to parallel this as it teaches that the King of the North has plans against the strongholds and succeeds against the prosperous.
We know that the Beast power will be worshipped by all the world:
3… And all the world marveled and followed the beast. 4 So they worshiped the dragon who gave authority to the beast; and they worshiped the beast, saying, “Who is like the beast? Who is able to make war with him?” 5 And he was given a mouth speaking great things and blasphemies, and he was given authority to continue for forty-two months. 6 Then he opened his mouth in blasphemy against God, to blaspheme His name, His tabernacle, and those who dwell in heaven. 7 It was granted to him to make war with the saints and to overcome them. And authority was given him over every tribe, tongue, and nation. 8 All who dwell on the earth will worship him, whose names have not been written in the Book of Life of the Lamb slain from the foundation of the world. 9 If anyone has an ear, let him hear (Revelation 13:3-9).
One of the reasons the world will follow the Beast is precisely because the Beast’s takeover of the USA was beyond what most thought was possible.
As far as the military goes, last year Germany pledged to spend more than any country, other than the USA (and perhaps China). Related to that, the Continuing Church of God (CCOG) put together the following video on our Bible News Prophecy YouTube channel:
Is the European Beast Growing Horns?
Does the conflict between Russia and Ukraine have prophetic ramifications? What about Ezekiel 38? Are we seeing a ‘historic shift’ in Europe to move towards more unity? What about non-EU nations like Sweden and Switzerland? Is Germany’s announcement to double its military spending to 100 million euros a big deal? Does the Bible tell of changes coming to Europe for it to rise up as a Babylonian unity successful military power? What about the United States of America and its British-descended allies? Could USA sanctions against Russia, including SWIFT restrictions, decrease international demand for USA dollars and cause inflation? Dr. Thiel addresses these issues and more in this video.
Here is a link to our video: Is the European Beast Growing Horns?
Now, we see leaders in Germany that want to accelerate Germany’s military spending and rise.
But don’t the Germans want peace?
Yes.
But consider that the Bible shows that the European beast leader, also called the King of the North, will arise promising peace.
21 And in his place shall arise a vile person, to whom they will not give the honor of royalty; but he shall come in peaceably, and seize the kingdom by intrigue. 22 With the force of a flood they shall be swept away from before him and be broken, and also the prince of the covenant. 23 And after the league is made with him he shall act deceitfully, for he shall come up and become strong with a small number of people. (Daniel 11:21-23, NKJV)
25 And through his policy also he shall cause craft to prosper in his hand; and he shall magnify himself in his heart, and by peace shall destroy many: he shall also stand up against the Prince of princes; but he shall be broken without hand. (Daniel 8:25, KJV).
(To prove this leader will be European, please watch the video: Can You Prove that the Beast to Come is European?)
Prior to Daniel 11:39-43, Europe will one day support a dictatorial strongman. The Bible calls him the Beast of the Sea (Revelation 13:1-10) and the King of the North (Daniel 11:40).
Germany will lead Europe. Related to that, we also put out the following video:
Various leaders in German have pointed to a more unified, militaristic, and German-led Europe. After Russia’s ‘special military operation’ into Ukraine, Germany declared it would increase its military spending to the third highest level of any nation on the planet? German-Foreign-Policy.com reported that German Chancellor Olaf Scholz wants the European Union to play a powerful and more unified geopolitical role. Does what he is stating consistent with prophecies in the Book of Revelation about Europe reorganizing and turning power over to one called the Beast? Are some in Poland and Hungary (like Peter G. Feher) concerned about the domination of Europe by Germany? Is a European/German leader prophesied as the “King of the North” to make some type of a deal with a leader of nations in the Middle East and North Africa called the “King of the South”? Is that King of the North prophesied to have a great army and many ships? Could the Beast/King of the North be German? Did the old Worldwide Church of God warn back in 1980 that, in the future, the German people be concerned enough about Russia that it would call for a Bavarian strongman to lead them? Does the Bible point to such a leader rising promising peace? Steve Dupuie and Dr. Thiel address those issues.
Here is a link to our video: Germany wants to lead a united Europe.
Germans and other Europeans will get sufficiently frustrated with democracy that (along with pushing coming from the Vatican) they will support a dictatorial leader over Europe.
We are getting closer and closer to that time.
