Germany’s Alternative f\u00fcr Deutshland<\/em> (AfD) party continues to increase in popularity. Notice the following:<\/p>\n

Germany’s AfD Party Rises In The West, Hits Record 19% In Baden-W\u00fcrttemberg<\/h2>\n

July 22, 2023<\/p>\n

It seems there is not a month that goes by where Germany\u2019s anti-immigration Alternative for Germany (AfD) party does not achieve another record polling result, with\u00a0the party now showing remarkable strength in the West of the country. …<\/strong><\/p>\n

Support for the right-wing populist party has historically been far weaker in the west of the country, but new polling shows that picture is also rapidly changing.<\/p>\n

In a poll out of the southern state of Baden-W\u00fcrttemberg, the AfD has hit a record 19 percent, rising seven percentage points since the last election. That puts the party in third place in that state, where it is behind the Green Party (24 percent) and the CDU (26 percent).<\/p>\n

\u2014 Deutschland W\u00e4hlt (@Wahlen_DE)\u00a0July 20, 2023<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

In the other western state of Rhineland-Palatinate, polling showed the AfD scoring a record 16 percent\u00a0<\/strong>on Thursday, improving by four percentage points compared to the previous poll at the end of last year. https:\/\/www.zerohedge.com\/political\/germanys-afd-party-rises-west-hits-record-19-baden-wurttemberg<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

The AfD is considered Germany’s anti-migrant party. Its influence has been growing as more in Germany have been supporting it in elections.<\/p>\n

I have reported about its rise many times at this COGwriter Church of God News page.<\/p>\n

Why?<\/p>\n

Well, because change is coming to Germany.<\/p>\n

The reality is many in Germany are frustrated with their government about energy, economic, and immigration matters and essentially not being able to boldly talk about it. More and more want a strong leader.<\/p>\n

The Bible shows that a militaristic totalitarian leader called the Beast will arise and become militarily successful (Revelation 13:1-4). Europeans will be comfortable, for a time, with such a militarily, successful leader.<\/p>\n

Democracy will again be eliminated in the coming reorganized Europe. A strong man will be in power.<\/p>\n

Notice some items from the old Radio\/Worldwide Church of God that were published decades ago (bolding<\/strong>\u00a0mine) regarding German\u2019s future:<\/p>\n

Watch the emergence of a strong man in West Germany (Hogberg G and Walter EM. NATO at the Crossroads. Plain Truth, May 1969)<\/p>\n

\u201cFascism in Europe is about to be reborn in respectable business attire, and the Treaty of Rome will finally be implemented to its fullest extent..\u00a0the dream of a Holy Roman, Empire returning to power to dominate and direct the so-called forces of Christian mankind of the Western world is not dead, but still stalks through the antechambers of every national capital of continental Western Europe<\/strong>\u2026 IN THE DETERMINATION OF THE LEADERS IN THE COMMON MARKET NATIONS TO RESTORE THE HOLY ROMAN EMPIRE WITH ALL THAT THAT MEANS!\u201d (Northwest Technocrat, Vol. XXV, No. 205.) United within the ancient boundaries of the Holy Roman Empire; united by the common spiritual bond of universal Catholicism; united in a burgeoning and booming industrial economy that dominates today\u2019s world; united geographically in the most productive and industrial complex of all the earth \u2014 at least TEN NATIONS OF MODERN EUROPE WILL MARCH ONTO THE SCENE OF WORLD HISTORY AS THE GREATEST SINGLE HUMAN FORCE EVER SEEN BY MAN! (Hill DJ. What is Germany\u2019s Destiny? Plain Truth, March 1962)<\/p>\n

The prophecy of Daniel 11 \u2026 This is an important \u201cend-time\u201d prophecy. Following the chronological progression of the chapter, it becomes apparent that the phrase \u201cking of the north\u201d had at first referred to Syria under the Seleucid dynasty, and later, in the New Testament times, to the Emperor of the Roman Empire. \u2026 Thus,\u00a0in its final end-time application, the \u201cking of the north\u201d is the prophesied strong man who will lead a coming<\/strong>\u00a0union of ten European nations \u2014 the seventh and\u00a0final revival of the ancient Roman Empire<\/strong>\u00a0prophesied by Daniel and in the book of Revelation (see Revelation 17:12-13).<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Finally feeling the chilling embrace of Moscow, the German people may yet call for the Bavarian strongman \u2014 the one they feared in good times \u2014 to rescue them from their impending doom. (Hogberg G. WHERE Is WEST GERMANY Headed? Plain Truth, December 1980).<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

A Bavarian strongman would be someone from Bavaria, which is in southern Germany (the southern border of Bavaria runs to the northern border of Austria). The strongman that Gene Hogberg had in mind back in 1980 (Franz Joseph Strauss) died. Yet, let me add that there is another Bavarian strongman who I have kept my eye on who may one day rise up. His name is Karl-Theodor zu-Guttenberg (see\u00a0Might German Baron Karl-Theodor zu Guttenberg become the King of the North?<\/a>). A reader sent me a link a while back to a presentation that Herr Guttenberg gave in May of 2016 where he called for more passionate leaders in Europe. One such leader will arise.<\/p>\n

When the time comes for the final Beast leader to arise, he will most likely be at least partially German, as all the leaders of the old Holy Roman Empire were as well.<\/p>\n

The Bible warns of a lack of natural unity in Europe:<\/p>\n

41 Whereas you saw the feet and toes, partly of potter\u2019s 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 the kingdom shall be partly strong and partly fragile. 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. (Daniel 2:41-43)<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

It will take a strong leader to make Europe\u2019s coming, temporary unity stronger.<\/p>\n

The Bible specifically shows that a reorganization will come to Europe and power will be given to that dictator:<\/p>\n

12 \u201cThe ten horns which you saw are ten kings who have received no kingdom as yet, but they receive authority for one hour as kings with the beast. 13 These are of one mind, and they will give their power and authority to the beast. (Revelation 17:12-13)<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Revelation 17:13 is clearly talking about a dictator\u2013one the Bible calls the beast.<\/p>\n

(More on the reorganization is discussed in the article:\u00a0Must the Ten Kings of Revelation 17:12 Rule over Ten Currently Existing Nations?)<\/a><\/p>\n

The Bible also shows that religion will be used by the King of the North:<\/p>\n

36 \u201cThen the king shall do according to his own will: he shall exalt and magnify himself above every god, shall speak blasphemies against the God of gods, and shall prosper till the wrath has been accomplished; for what has been determined shall be done. 37 He shall regard neither the God of his fathers nor the desire of women, nor regard any god; for he shall exalt himself above them all. 38 But in their place he shall honor a god of fortresses; and a god which his fathers did not know he shall honor with gold and silver, with precious stones and pleasant things. 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.\u00a0 (Daniel 11:36-39)<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

The King of the North Beast will also push out Islam (cf. Daniel 11:40-43) and lead a powerful European military (cf. Revelation 13:3-4; Daniel 11:39-43). These are things that many in Europe want!<\/p>\n

The Bible shows that the\u00a0European beast<\/a>\u00a0leader, also called the\u00a0King of the North<\/a>, will arise promising peace:<\/p>\n

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)<\/p>\n

25 And through his policy also he shall cause craft to prosper in his hand; and\u00a0he shall magnify himself in his heart, and by peace shall destroy many<\/strong>: he shall also stand up against the Prince of princes; but he shall be broken without hand. (Daniel 8:25, KJV).<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

(To prove this leader will be European, please watch the video:\u00a0Can You Prove that the Beast to Come is European?<\/a>)<\/p>\n

But he will bring war (cf. Revelation 13:1-4; Daniel 11:39-44).<\/p>\n

While the AfD has its own problems, its rise is demonstrating that Germans are becoming less tolerant of democracy than many thought.<\/p>\n

AfD: Prelude to a Hitler Beast?<\/a><\/h3>\n

Germany\u2019s Alternative f\u00fcr Deutshland (Alternative for Germany in English) party celebrated its 10th anniversary on February 6, 2023.<\/span><\/p>\n

It objects to:
\n\u274cMore illegal migration
\n\u274cMore asylum abuse
\n\u274cMore crime
\n\u274cMore housing shortage
\n\u274cMore Cancel Culture<\/span><\/p>\n

The AfD also asserts, \u201cNow it\u2019s time to change that. And that\u2019s only possible with us.\u201d Many are concerned that the AfD\u2019s growing political influence will impact Germany. Can a strong man worse than Adolf Hitler, that the Bible calls the Beast rise up from Germany? Could Europe reorganize with a small backing to put this leader into place? Does the AfD want to make a deal with Russia? Will Germany make a future deal with Russia that would be opposed to the USA? Does the AfD want religion involved to meet its objectives in such a way that it could support the coming King of the North Beast power that the Bible warns will arise in Europe? Could Europe unite under such a leader according to scripture? Steve Dupuie and Dr. Thiel go over these matters.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Here is a link to our video:\u00a0AfD: Prelude to a Hitler Beast?<\/a><\/p>\n

The rise of AfD reminds some of pre-WWII. The protest and counter protests in places like France also are leading to a desire to push out Islam and to support a strongman type leader.<\/p>\n

We are getting closer and closer to WWIII<\/a>.<\/p>\n

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

Europa, the Beast, and the Book of Revelation<\/a>\u00a0discusses the largest church since the second\/third century, which in a real sense is the eighth church mentioned in the Book of Revelation (it also endorses \u201ceighth day\u201d worship). What church would support the Beast? Here is a link to a video titled:\u00a0Can You Prove that the Beast to Come is European?<\/a>
\nGermany in Biblical Prophecy<\/a>\u00a0Does Assyria in the Bible equate to an end time power inhabiting the area of the old Roman Empire? What does prophecy say Germany will do and what does it say will happen to most of the German people? Here are links to two sermon videos\u00a0Germany in Bible Prophecy<\/a>\u00a0and\u00a0The Rise of the Germanic Beast Power of Prophecy<\/a>.
\nWar is Coming Between Europeans and Arabs<\/a>\u00a0Is war really coming between the Arabs and the Europeans? What does Bible prophecy say about that? Do the Central Europeans (Assyria in prophecy) make a deal with the Arabs that will hurt the USA and its Anglo-Saxon allies? Do Catholic or Islamic prophecies discuss a war between Europe and Islam? If so, what is the sequence of events that the Bible reveals? Who does the Bible, Catholic, and Islamic prophecy teach will win such a war? This is a video.
\nWill Islam be Pushed Out of Europe?<\/a>\u00a0On June 8, 2018, Austria\u2019s Chancellor Sebastian Kurz announced the closing of seven Islamic mosques in an effort to reduce \u201cpolitical Islam.\u201d In the past several years, at least 6 European nations have banned the wearing of a commonly used garment by Islamic females. Heinz-Christian Strache (later Vice Chancellor of Austria) has declared that Islam has no place in Europe. Did Germany\u2019s Angela Merkel call multiculturalism a failure? Will there be deals between the Muslims and the Europeans? Will a European Beast leader rise up after a reorganization that will eliminate nationalism? Will Europe push out Islam? What does Catholic prophecy teach? What does the Bible teach in Daniel and Revelation? Is Islam prophesied to be pushed out of Europe? Dr. Thiel addresses these issues and more in this video.
\n<\/span>Can the Final Antichrist be Islamic?<\/a>\u00a0Is Joel Richardson correct that the final Antichrist will be Islamic and not European? Find out. A related sermon is titled:\u00a0Is the Final Antichrist Islamic or European?<\/a>\u00a0Another video is\u00a0Mystery Babylon USA, Mecca, or Rome?<\/a>
\nPersecutions by Church and State<\/a>\u00a0This article documents some that have occurred against those associated with the COGs and some prophesied to occur. Will those with the cross be the persecutors or the persecuted\u2013this article has the shocking answer. There is also a YouTube video sermon you can watch:\u00a0The Coming Persecution of the Church<\/a>. Here is information in the Spanish language:\u00a0Persecuciones de la Iglesia y el Estado<\/a>.
\nWorld War III: Steps in Progress<\/a>\u00a0Are there surprising actions going on now that are leading to WWIII? Might a nuclear attack be expected? Does the Bible promise protection to all or only some Christians? How can you be part of those that will be protected? A related video would be\u00a0Is World War III About to Begin?

\nMight German Baron Karl-Theodor zu Guttenberg become the King of the North?<\/a>\u00a0Is the former German Defense Minister (who is also the former German Minister for Economics and Technology) one to watch? What do Catholic, Byzantine, and biblical prophecies suggest?
\nGermany\u2019s Assyrian Roots Throughout History<\/a>\u00a0Are the Germanic peoples descended from Asshur of the Bible? Have there been real Christians in Germanic history? What about the \u201cHoly Roman Empire\u201d? There is also a You-Tube video sermon on this titled\u00a0Germany\u2019s Biblical Origins.<\/a>
\nMust the Ten Kings of Revelation 17:12 Rule over Ten Currently Existing Nations?<\/a>\u00a0Some claim that these passages refer to a gathering of 10 currently existing nations together, while one group teaches that this is referring to 11 nations getting together. Is that what Revelation 17:12-13 refers to? The ramifications of misunderstanding this are enormous. A related sermon is titled\u00a0Ten Kings of Revelation and the Great Tribulation<\/a>.
\nThe \u2018Peace Deal\u2019 of Daniel 9:27<\/a>\u00a0This prophecy could give up to 3 1\/2 years advance notice of the coming Great Tribulation. Will most ignore or misunderstand its fulfillment? Here is a link to a related sermon video\u00a0Daniel 9:27 and the Start of the Great Tribulation<\/a>.
\nWho is the King of the West?<\/a>\u00a0Why is there no Final End-Time King of the West in Bible Prophecy? Is the United States the King of the West?

\nWho is the King of the North?<\/a>\u00a0Is there one? Do biblical and Roman Catholic prophecies for the Great Monarch 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\u00a0the United States, Great Britain, Canada, Australia, and New Zealand<\/span>?
