Brussels, my love? Europe’s declarations of independence<\/h2>\n

5 April 2025<\/p>\n

Energy bars, water, medication – the EU Commission wants citizens to have a 72-hour survival kit at home. Why? To be better prepared for possible crises such as natural disasters, industrial accidents or cyber and military attacks.<\/p>\n

But this is only on an individual level. Politically, Europe is currently taking steps to become more independent and to arm itself on all fronts. …<\/p>\n

Friedrich Merz, Germany’s next chancellor, said … on election night: his \u201cabsolute priority\u201d would be to strengthen Europe as quickly as possible \u201cin order to become truly independent from the USA\u201d.<\/p>\n

The openly hostile attitude of the Trump administration has abruptly accelerated discussions about strategic autonomy – an idea that French President Emmanuel Macron has had since 2017. …<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

The continent sees itself as the lone torchbearer of liberal democracy. …<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Massive German spending on armaments and infrastructure, as well as Brussels’ plans to mobilize more than 800 billion euros, will only become apparent over time. But will this change Europe’s global role and its perception of the role it should play forever?<\/p>\n

Second topic: trade. The global economy is struggling to come to terms with the latest volley of Donald Trump’s tariffs – and it is businesses and consumers everywhere who are likely to end up footing the bill, one way or another. …<\/p>\n

How bad can it get? https:\/\/www.euronews.com\/my-europe\/2025\/04\/05\/brussels-my-love-europes-declarations-of-independence<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Many European leaders want Europe to change and rise up and pressure from Donald Trump is accelerating that process.<\/p>\n

One American writer posted his recipe for that at NewsMax:<\/p>\n

Don’t Break Apart EU, Rebuild It with Democracy in Mind<\/h2>\n

April 4, 2025<\/p>\n

The European Union was founded on the dream of cooperation between sovereign nations. Today, that dream is in danger of becoming a bureaucratic nightmare.<\/span> …<\/p>\n

The European Union needs a federal system like the United States, with three co-equal branches of government \u2014 executive, legislative, and judicial \u2014 each accountable to the people.<\/span> …<\/p>\n

The members of the European Commission are not directly elected by EU citizens. Each member state should directly elect its <\/span>own<\/span> European commissioner.<\/span><\/p>\n

The presidency of the European Commission should rotate every six months among the 27 members.<\/span> …<\/p>\n

The EU doesn\u2019t need to be broken apart. It needs to be rebuilt \u2014 with democracy at its core. The future of the EU must be shaped by its citizens, not imposed by bureaucrats in Brussels.<\/span> https:\/\/www.newsmax.com\/robertzapesochny\/eu-european-union-democracy\/2025\/04\/04\/id\/1205700\/<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Understand that the European Union considers itself a democracy, but it is more of a bureaucracy that allows some voting.<\/p>\n

Is Europe’s destiny to change to become a bright democracy?<\/p>\n

No.<\/p>\n

It likes to think that it is.<\/p>\n

As\u00a0EuroNews<\/em> reported, it now considers “itself as the lone torchbearer of liberal democracy.”<\/p>\n

This is partially because it no longer considers the USA a democracy as it is outraged by many statements and actions of its President Donald Trump.<\/p>\n

But let me add that despite its disdain for Donald Trump, Europeans are also seeing that having a leader like him helps cut through bureaucracy and gets world attention.<\/p>\n

Europe is prophesied to reorganize and put in power a man who is even more bold and egotistical than Donald Trump.<\/p>\n

He is called the man of sin in 2 Thessalonians 2:3.\u00a0The Continuing<\/em> Church of God<\/a> has a sermon of related interest on its ContinuingCOG <\/a>channel:<\/p>\n

The Man of Sin will deceive most \u2018Christians\u2019<\/a><\/h3>\n<\/div>\n

In 2 Thessalonians 2, the Apostle Paul writes about one called the man of sin, the son of perdition, the lawless one. Is this person the beast of the sea or the beast of the earth of Revelation 13? Is he the King of the North or the False Prophet? Is he the Antichrist or the papacy? Is he someone in the Church of God? What are various Catholic, Protestant, and Church of God views? Are those views based upon tradition or scripture? Are some views at least partially right? Are the radical preterists right? What about Millennialists and Hal Lindsey? What about ties to the Great Monarch of Catholic and Eastern Orthodox prophecies? What types of signs and lying wonders might accompanying him? Will he advocate the breaking of all ten of the commandments? Why will most who profess Christianity be deceived? Will most non-Philadelphians be misled? What are the biblical facts about the man of sin? Dr. Thiel addresses these issues and more by covering numerous scriptures and other writings.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Here is a link to the sermon: The Man of Sin will deceive most \u2018Christians\u2019<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Notice that the Bible shows that the time will come when Europe will reorganize and turn power over to a dictator called the beast below:<\/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

This will NOT be a democracy.<\/p>\n

And we see that this Beast will arise with support of ten who will have been given power in a reorganization.<\/p>\n

In the Book of Revelation, let’s look at the following verses which precede the reorganization:<\/p>\n

8 The beast that you saw was, and is not, and will ascend out of the bottomless pit and go to perdition. And those who dwell on the earth will marvel, whose names are not written in the Book of Life from the foundation of the world, when they see the beast that was, and is not, and yet is.<\/p>\n

9 “Here is the mind which has wisdom: The seven heads are seven mountains on which the woman sits. 10 There are also seven kings. Five have fallen, one is, and the other has not yet come. And when he comes, he must continue a short time. 11 The beast that was, and is not, is himself also the eighth, and is of the seven, and is going to perdition.\u00a0 (Revelation 17:8-11)<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Could the European Union be the sixth king that now is, but is not? Related to that, we put out the following sermon:<\/p>\n

European Union & 7 Kings of Revelation 17:10<\/a><\/h3>\n

Could the European Union be involved in biblical prophecies? If so, which ones? What did the EU form from? Did the little horn of Benelux grow larger towards the south and east as Daniel prophesied? What about the seven kings of Revelation 17:10? Could they be connected to the so-called \u2018Holy Roman Empire\u2019? What is the \u2018Marian\u2019 EU flag based upon? Might the seven kings be Justinian\u2019s Imperial Restoration, Charlemagne\u2019s Frankish Empire, the \u2018Holy Roman Empire\u2019 of Otto the Great, the Hohenstaufen Dynasty, the Habsburg Dynasty, the European Economic Community\/European Union, and the Beast of the Sea of Revelation 13? What about Napoleon or Benito Mussolini\/Adolf Hitler? Did Otto von Habsburg renounce his right to the title \u2018Holy Roman Emperor\u2019 in the same year that the European Economic Union (aka the Common Market) formed in 1958? Did the EEU last until the EU was formed in 1993? What about the beast that \u201cwas, and is not\u201d and \u201cnow is\u2019? What about the beast that \u201cis also the eighth, and is of the seven\u201d? What have Roman Catholic and Protestant scholars taught? What about Church of God groups and writers including Andrew Dugger and Herbert W. Armstrong? What are some of the religious connections between the Church of Rome and Europe? What about private prophecies related to the \u2018Great Monarch\u2019? Could those looking for the Great Monarch miss the Beast and Antichrist according to Roman Catholic writer Paul Thigpen? Could the final Antichrist be an antipope? Is the the Mediterranean Sea the sea that the Beast of Revelation 13 rises from? How does the EU resemble the \u2018Holy Roman Empire\u2019? Could the EU be the sixth king of Revelation 17:10? Might the United Nations be involved and support the rise of the seventh king? Is the EU setting the stage for the seventh king? Dr. Thiel addresses these matters and more.<\/span><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Here is a link to the sermon video: European Union & 7 Kings of Revelation 17:10<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Europe will, for a 42-month time, become a global dictatorial power consistent with prophecies in the 13th, 17th, and 18th chapters of the Book of Revelation.<\/p>\n

Europe to Expand and Reorganize?<\/a><\/h3>\n

In September 2023, European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen gave her annual State of the European Union speech. It was a motivational speech to push Europeans to support bold moves for expansion, trade, and international influence. She also mentioned Europe’s Global Gateway project as well as her involvement in getting the G20 to go for the India-Middle East-Europe Economic Corridor (IMEC). Several days after her speech, a report titled Sailing on High Seas: Reforming and Enlarging the EU for the 21st Century<\/em> put out by Europeans from Germany and France, called for an overhaul of the European Union so that it could manage expanding to over 30 nations. Will Europe reorganize? What does the Bible teach in Revelation <\/span>17:12<\/span>-13? Will this involve more than 10 or 11 currently existing nations? Will this end up being a dictatorship? Could any of this have to do with the coming ‘King of the North’ of Daniel 11? Could a Bavarian ‘strongman’ possibly be involved in the future? Could the year 2030 be relevant? Dr. Thiel and Steve Dupuie discuss these matters and more.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Here is a link to our video:\u00a0Europe to Expand and Reorganize?<\/a><\/p>\n

Since the Donald Trump tariff announcements on Wednesday, the European Union is even more focused on being its own power independent of the United States.<\/p>\n

Europe will reorganize per Revelation 17:12-13 and become a military power per Revelation 13:3-4 and Daniel 11:39-43.<\/p>\n

It will not end up as a democracy as many there now hope.<\/p>\n
