China predicts the rise of its system over Western democracy:<\/p>\n

January 23, 2017<\/p>\n

Chinese state media used President Donald Trump\u2019s inauguration to make a case for communism while slamming Western democracy. However, no direct reference to the new commander-in-chief was made.<\/p>\n

The series of articles published Sunday in China\u2019s Communist Party\u2019s flagship paper People\u2019s Daily come at a time when President Xi Jinping is gearing up for a reshuffle in leadership posts that occurs once in five years.<\/p>\n

\u201cWestern style democracy used to be a recognized power in history to drive social development. But now it has reached its limits,\u201d one of the articles reportedly<\/a> said. \u201cDemocracy is already kidnapped by the capitals and has become the weapon for capitalists to chase profits.\u201d<\/p>\n

The paper devoted an entire page in its Sunday edition to criticize democracy, quoting poetry by former Chairman Mao Zedong urging people to \u201crange far your eyes over long vistas,\u201d and claiming that with the end of capitalism, communism will rise as the victor.\u00a0http:\/\/www.ibtimes.com\/us-china-relations-chinese-state-media-use-trump-inauguration-criticize-democracy-2479315<\/a><\/p>\n

Ironically, realizing a power vacuum is forming in global “governance”, Xi has used recent speeches to international audiences to tout China\u2019s economic and political values and has said that globalization, despite its flaws, should endure via the existing international system of finance and trade. That\u2019s even as state media criticizes democracy and capitalism amid efforts to build support at home for the party. Translation: China remains largely an export-driven economy, and any threats to the global trade model could have dire consequences for social stability in China.<\/strong><\/p>\n

“China\u2019s rising wealth has brought greater global presence, but that\u2019s not enough,” said Zhang Ming, a political science professor at Renmin University in Beijing. \u201cThe Communist leaders want that someday China will matter globally for the nature of its political system and create its own universal values.\u201d<\/p>\n

As a result, Trump\u2019s policies will give China a chance to take a bigger global role, said Zhang. “China doesn\u2019t have a better Communist system than it used to have, but the global economic and political turmoil has undermined public confidence in western democracy,” he said. http:\/\/www.zerohedge.com\/news\/2017-01-23\/china-says-its-ready-assume-world-leadership<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

While the Bible teaches that the USA, UK, Canada, Australia, and New Zealand will fall (Daniel 8:24-25; 11:39; Jeremiah 30:7), it teaches that it will be a European economic system that will dominate the world for a time, but that it will not last (cf. Revelation 18).<\/p>\n

The Bible shows that many lands that were once Communist are prophesied to one day destroy the European power.<\/p>\n

The Catholic Priest Kramer wrote that Russia, along with China, will attack Europe:<\/p>\n

Priest Paul Kramer<\/em> (21st century): Unanimously, in all the prophecies of the saints down through the ages, and in the most secure and certain apparitions of Our Lady, it is revealed that there is going to be a tremendous great World War. It will break out suddenly, from East to West…The Russians already have an army of Special Forces and Arab terrorists that they have trained, along with the Communist Red Chinese. They have a vast army, secret armies, who are waiting for the day when the signal is given…And they will attack Europe. In the morning it will appear that the world is at peace. By the evening, the entire world will be plunged into war. (Kramer P. The Imminent Chastisement for Not Fulfilling Our Lady\u2019s Request. An edited transcript of a speech given at the Ambassadors of Jesus and Mary Seminar in Glendale, California, September 24, 2004.THE FATIMA CRUSADER Issue 80, Summer 2005, pp. 32-45 http:\/\/www.fatimacrusader.com\/cr80\/cr80pg32.asp viewed 05\/13\/10)<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

The Bible also shows that this “Babylonian\/European” empire will be destroyed by a northern power.<\/p>\n

Notice something about this from the late Herbert W. Armstrong<\/a>:<\/p>\n

The second woe, with its symbols of horses and horsemen…and is also referred to as an event in the Day OF THE Eternal in Joel 2:4. This refers to a tremendous military power–also to the NORTH–due north! They come with an army of two hundred million! Think of it–an army of two hundred million! World events are now moving rapidly<\/em> to make possible<\/em> a Communist Eurasian army of that unbelievable manpower! (Armstrong HW. The Book of Revelation Unveiled at Last! 1972 edition. p. 38-39).<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

It should be noted that all of that Eurasian army does not need to be ‘communist’ (though most of the lands that Herbert Armstrong referred to were communist when he wrote that).<\/p>\n

So, yes, one day China will matter politically as some are currently saying.<\/p>\n

The Bible tells of a time when there will be a confederation of the \u2018kings of the east\u2019 that will get together:<\/p>\n

12 Then the sixth angel poured out his bowl on the great river Euphrates, and its water was dried up, so that the way of the kings from the east might be prepared. 13 And I saw three unclean spirits like frogs coming out of the mouth of the dragon, out of the mouth of the beast, and out of the mouth of the false prophet. 14 For they are spirits of demons, performing signs, which go out to the kings of the earth and of the whole world, to gather them to the battle of that great day of God Almighty.<\/p>\n

15 “Behold, I am coming as a thief. Blessed is he who watches, and keeps his garments, lest he walk naked and they see his shame.”<\/p>\n

16 And they gathered them together to the place called in Hebrew, Armageddon. (Revelation 16:12-16)<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

This will include Russia, China, Korea, Japan, and probably Malaysia, Vietnam, Thailand, and the Philippines. Things will one day dramatically change, militarily, in Asia, in terms of cooperation.<\/p>\n

Notice also the following:<\/p>\n

13 Then the sixth angel sounded: And I heard a voice from the four horns of the golden altar which is before God, 14 saying to the sixth angel who had the trumpet, “Release the four angels who are bound at the great river Euphrates.” 15 So the four angels, who had been prepared for the hour and day and month and year, were released to kill a third of mankind. 16 Now the number of the army of the horsemen was two hundred million<\/strong>; I heard the number of them. (Revelation 9:13-17).<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Only China, and possibly India and others in Asia (many of which will one-day align themselves with China and Russia against the European Empire), are capable of fielding a two hundred million man army. Thus, Revelation appears to be discussing an Asian role in the end-time prophecies.<\/p>\n

As I have written before, there were only about 100,000,000 males (including children) on the entire earth when God had the Apostle John pen the prophecy in Revelation 9:16 that a 200,000,000 man army would form (Rastogi VB, Kishore B. A Complete Course in ISC Biology. Pitambar Publishing, 1997, p. 24). This means, despite those who claim that the Book of Revelation was fulfilled centuries ago (see The Dangerous Rise of Preterists<\/a>), that the prophecy about the 200 million man army is for a time like we are now in.<\/p>\n

In the Book of Jeremiah, it is shown that a northern people (which most logically would seem to have to be Russia at this stage) will be part of the force that extends to the ends of the earth (like China) and then eventually invades, end time Babylon (which will be a European <\/a>power):<\/p>\n

9 For behold, I will raise and cause to come up against Babylon
\nAn assembly of great nations from the north country<\/strong>,
\nAnd they shall array themselves against her;
\nFrom there she shall be captured.
\nTheir arrows shall be like those of an expert warrior;
\nNone shall return in vain. (Jeremiah 50:9)<\/p>\n

50:41 Behold, a people shall come from the north<\/strong>,
\nAnd a great nation and many kings
\nShall be raised up from the ends of the earth<\/strong>.
\n42 They shall hold the bow and the lance;
\nThey are cruel and shall not show mercy.
\nTheir voice shall roar like the sea;
\nThey shall ride on horses,
\nSet in array, like a man for the battle,
\nAgainst you, O daughter of Babylon. (Jeremiah 50:41-42).<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

From a European perspective, Russia is a north country whose borders reach to the eastern ends of the earth, as do China’s and many Asian-Pacific nations.<\/p>\n

Donald Trump’s nationalist message may help encourage those in Asia to get closer to China and Russia’s Eurasian Union<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Eurasian forces will one day gather at Armageddon<\/a>. No, I am not saying that Donald Trump intentionally is causing Armageddon, but that some of his statements are probably going to help drive various Asian nations together.<\/p>\n

Bible prophecies will be fulfilled.<\/p>\n

Some items of possibly related interest may include:<\/em><\/p>\n

Will they fight here or is the related battle somewhere else. Dr. Thiel answers these questions and more.
