COGwriter<\/a><\/p>\n As the following article from Canada shows, many are concluding correctly that the USA is in decline.\u00a0 Many believe that China is the likely replacement, but some suspect Europe:<\/p>\n <\/p>\n http:\/\/www.ottawacitizen.com\/technology\/decline+America\/2377175\/story.html<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/blockquote>\n RC Meredith of the Living Church of God<\/a> wrote:<\/p>\n Many publications have suggested that the 21st century will be \u201cChina\u2019s century.\u201d Even though the Chinese are fiercely moving forward, and their progress in developing their industries is obvious, these publications are dead wrong for two reasons. First, the inspired word of God describes specifically how a coming European Union will be the dominant force in this world\u2014obviously within the next several years. Therefore, brethren, I would like to focus your mind on this matter so you can more intelligently \u201cwatch\u201d world events along this line as they unfold before your very eyes. In the coming years, you will perhaps even see a revolt of the peasants in the outlying Chinese cities, who have lagged far behind the standard of living afforded those who have moved to Beijing and Shanghai. Plus, the tremendous pollution of the water, air and foodstuffs may bring about massive disease epidemics and other problems for the Chinese.<\/p>\n In addition, distracting wars and other events may\u2014 as God chooses to guide it\u2014greatly undermine the material progress now being made by the Chinese. Meanwhile, you will soon see the European Union evolve into an absolutely powerful and dynamic force in the world\u2014 ultimately to become the \u201cBeast\u201d as revealed in Revelation 17 in your own Bible!<\/p>\n So the 21st century will not be the \u201cChinese century!\u201d Rather it will appear to become the European century for a few years, until the magnificent return of Jesus Christ as King of kings and Lord of lords. From then on, the 21st century will be, indeed, \u201cChrist\u2019s century!\u201d And all of us who are able to understand the \u201cBig Picture\u201d of world events from God\u2019s point of view should be preparing to help straighten out the appalling degree of suffering, starvation and misconduct we find on this earth today in virtually every nation (Meredith R.C. An Inspiring and Successful Trip. Living Church News. May-June 2007, p. 21).<\/p><\/blockquote>\n The Bible tells of the rise of the “daughter of Babylon”.\u00a0 Babylon is place that the Europeans tend to consider is appropriate as a reference to their union.\u00a0 And according to biblical prophecy, the description of the future “Babylon” fits Europe much better than China (though it will apparently trade with it).<\/p>\n Some articles of possibly related interest may include:<\/em><\/p>\n Europa, the Beast, and Revelation<\/a> Where did Europe get its name? What might Europe have to do with the Book of Revelation? What about “the Beast”? Is an emerging European power “the daughter of Babylon”? What is ahead for Europe?

Given the realities of geoeconomics it is not inconceivable that a far more dynamic leader such as German Economics Minister Karl Theodor von und zu Guttenberg might one day be in charge.<\/span>..If America declines, will Europe fill the vacuum, partly in response to the Chinese challenge? To some this seems unlikely but think back to the world of only a scant 10 years ago when the Anglo-American model of stakeholder capitalism stood triumphantly (and perhaps a tad arrogantly) and practically alone on the top of the heap, and how much has changed since then.<\/span><\/p>\n
\nAnglo – America in Prophecy & the Lost Tribes of Israel<\/a> Are the Americans, Canadians, British, Scottish, Welsh, Australians, Anglo-Southern Africans, and New Zealanders descendants of Joseph? Where are the lost ten-tribes of Israel? Who are the lost tribes of Israel? Will God punish the U.S.A., Canada, United Kingdom, and other Anglo nations? Why might God allow them to be punished first?
\nWho is the King of the North?<\/a> Is there one? Do biblical and Roman Catholic prophecies point to the same leader? Should he be followed? Who will be the King of the North discussed in Daniel 11? Is a nuclear attack prophesied to happen to the English-speaking peoples of the United States, Great Britain, Canada, Australia, and New Zealand<\/span>? When do the 1335 days, 1290 days, and 1260 days (the time, times, and half a time) of Daniel 12 begin? When does the Bible show that economic collapse will affect the United States?
\nAsia in Prophecy<\/a> What is Ahead for Asia? Who are the “Kings of the East”? What will happen to nearly all the Chinese, Russians, Indians, and others of Asia? China in prophecy, where? Who has the 200,000,000 man army related to Armageddon?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
