It is highly likely that riots and unrest will later propel a European leader to rise up.  The final leader will be the one known as the Beast (Revelation 13:3-4) and final King of the North (Daniel 11:22-44) of Bible prophecy.<\/p>\n<p>Additionally, in my book <a href=\"http:\/\/www.thesecretsect.com\/\">2012 and the Rise of the Secret Sect<\/a>,  I discussed the possibility of civil unrest and\/or civil war breaking out  in Europe as that is consistent with both biblical and certain non-biblical prophecy.\u00a0  Here are a couple of captions from my 2009 book about that:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>Some believe that God will punish the nominal Catholics  with civil unrest and war in Europe.  As there already has been civil  unrest in Europe (and according to secular sources, more is expected),  it is possible that the following (to some degree) also may come to  pass:..<\/p>\n<p><em> Monk Hilarion<\/em> (15<sup>th<\/sup> century): \u201cThe people of the peninsula of Europe<em> will suffer by needless wars\u2026\u201d <\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>Brother Louis Rocco<\/em> (19th century): \u201cAll over Europe there  will rage terrible civil wars\u2026A Great Monarch will arise after a period  of terrible wars and persecutions in Europe.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Some believe this civil unrest will result in the rise of a  militaristic leader who will quell that particular violence, establish a  new religious order, and reign with a pope who will perform miracles\u2026<\/p>\n<p>One interesting 15<sup>th<\/sup> century Catholic prophecy foretells a  time when a \u201cgreat prince\u201d will rise up. \u201cAll Germany\u201d will apparently  convert to the ecumenical religion, and then massive conversions in \u201call  countries\u201d \u201cwill happen quickly\u2026<\/p>\n<p>The descriptions of the Great Monarch\/Prince in many ways parallel  the description of one the Bible refers to as the \u201cprince\u201d in Daniel  9:26\u201327, final \u201cKing of the North\u201d in Daniel 11:27\u201345\u2026<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>World events are aligning with prophecy. Future protests may turn quite violent and this may be a major trigger for the rise of the prophesied final King of the North.<\/p>\n<p>There will be ups and downs in Europe until the final European beast power rises up.<\/p>\n<p>The Bible is clear that although there will be problems with the unnatural combination that we now call Europe, that it still will rise up.\u00a0\u00a0  NOtice:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>40 And the fourth kingdom shall be as strong as iron, inasmuch as iron breaks in pieces and shatters everything; and like iron that crushes, that kingdom will break in pieces and crush all the others. 41 Whereas you saw the feet and toes, partly of potter&#8217;s clay and partly of iron, the kingdom shall be divided; yet the strength of the iron shall be in it, just as you saw the iron mixed with ceramic clay. 42 And as the toes of the feet were partly of iron and partly of clay, so <strong>the kingdom shall be partly strong and partly fragile<\/strong>. 43 As you saw iron mixed with ceramic clay, they will mingle with the seed of men; but they will not adhere to one another, just as iron does not mix with clay. 44 And in the days of these kings the God of heaven will set up a kingdom which shall never be destroyed; and the kingdom shall not be left to other people; it shall break in pieces and consume all these kingdoms, and it shall stand forever. 45 Inasmuch as you saw that the stone was cut out of the mountain without hands, and that it broke in pieces the iron, the bronze, the clay, the silver, and the gold \u2014 the great God has made known to the king what will come to pass after this.<strong> The dream is certain, and its interpretation is sure<\/strong>.\u00a0 (Daniel 2:40-45)<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Notice that according to what it written in the Book of Daniel, a kingdom will arise that does not adhere well together&#8211;yet that it is certain to rise up anyway.\u00a0 Also notice that afterwards, the Kingdom of God will come and that the kingdoms of the world will be destroyed&#8211;and that is sure.<\/p>\n<p>The types of protests and riots in Greece, and other parts of Europe, will likely have ups and downs.\u00a0 And it is almost certain that because of protests and other forms of civil unrest, that the Europeans will be more willing to accept the type of militaristic leader that the Bible teaches will lead the final beast empire (Revelation 13:1-4).\u00a0\u00a0 And this is despite the fact that to the outside world (as well as to Europeans themselves) the rise of the final Beast power will be partly strong and partly fragile.\u00a0 Many see Europe as fragile, and while they have a point, the Bible indicates that final human kingdom will rise up anyway (though the Kingdom of God will ultimately replace it).<\/p>\n<p><em>Some articles of possibly related interest may include:<\/em><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"\/kingofthenorth.htm\">Who is the King   of the North?<\/a> Is there one?
