Is this a big deal? This is the largest trade deal Brussels or Latin America has ever concluded and it involves all the nations in the European Union and all the nations in the Mercosur block of nations (six including Venezuela) covering 700 million people. Yes. This is a big deal. This deal has been over 25 years in the making. EU President Ursula von der Leyen said, \u201cWe choose fair trade over tariffs, we choose productive, long-term partnership over isolation, and above all, we intend to deliver real and tangible benefits to our peoples and companies. What was the driving force behind concluding a trade deal that was in the making for over 25 years? Donald Trump! But are there any downsides to the trade deal? Are there any Biblical prophecies that are being fulfilled right now, before our very eyes, at least partially? Spoiler alert \u2013 yes. Dr. Thiel brings the world news of this trade event into the light of Bible prophecy. How so? The time is getting short. Babylon is beginning to rise. As far back as 2008 Dr. Thiel\u2019s revealed understanding of Biblical prophecy has inspired him to warn of the soon coming Beast-dominating world trade. This is one of the pieces falling into place. Watch this video as Dr. Thiel shines the light of Biblical prophecy on world events and where they are leading!<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Here is a link to our video:\u00a0<a id=\"video-title\" class=\"yt-simple-endpoint style-scope ytd-grid-video-renderer\" title=\"EU-Mercosur Trade Deal: Babylonian Beast Prelude!\" href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=nmID6WsCYkY&amp;pp=0gcJCU8KAYcqIYzv\" aria-label=\"EU-Mercosur Trade Deal: Babylonian Beast Prelude! 14 minutes, 38 seconds\">EU-Mercosur Trade Deal: Babylonian Beast Prelude!<\/a><\/p>\n<div>\n<p><em>Some items of possibly related interest may include:<\/em><\/p>\n<p><a id=\"video-title\" class=\"yt-simple-endpoint style-scope ytd-grid-video-renderer\" title=\"Trade Wars \u2013 and the Winner will be \u2026\" href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=tsUup7F_w6I\" aria-label=\"Trade Wars \u2013 and the Winner will be \u2026 by BibleNewsProphecy 32 views 7 hours ago 14 minutes, 49 seconds\">Trade Wars \u2013 and the Winner will be \u2026<\/a> US President Trump imposed tariffs on a global scale. Those tariffs were imposed on friend and foe alike. It seems as if President Trump is no respecter of nations. But how will this work out for the United States? Will these tariffs result in other nations drawing closer together that have had rather cold, and even not so cold, relations in the past? Will global tariffs result in trade wars? Were the events which are happening predicted by any in the Continuing Church of God? Is Europe drawing closer to China? Is Europe drawing closer to Latin and South America? With the exception of a few of America\u2019s allies, is the net result of these tariffs a worldwide scramble to create new alliances and new trading partners to the exclusion of the United States? What will be the future result of these new alliances? Many of the nations that are now seeking new alliances were just recently America\u2019s allies. They were her friends. Dr. Thiel brings to light the fate of America and her allies at the hands of her former friends, as revealed in the book of Lamentations. As we rapidly approach the end times listen in to this video as Dr. Thiel brings to light world events. Also listen as he shines the light of Bible prophecy directly on the questions raised from these world events.<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.cogwriter.com\/europa.htm\">Europa, the Beast, and Revelation<\/a> Where did Europe get its name?
