Ever since the 1970 about the time Hal Lindsey's Late Great Planet Earth was number one on the New York Times best seller list, and all time best seller of 15 million copies world wide, I have been interested in end time prophesies. I confess that I was really confused and with world situation at that time couldn't see how much of what Lindsey wrote would be possible. In all of Lindsey's predictions, the one that stands out the most is the forming of the United States of Europe, in reality, the European Union. It was to be a reforming of the Roman Empire and from its captial the anti-christ would rule.Lindsey predicted that there would be ten states to make up the United States of Europe, now there are twenty-seven, hower it can be noted that there are just ten nations in the western alliance. Of course, we can see now the all this is subject to change. Recently, the Eruo, the EU currency is replacing the dollar as the currency of choice. How long that will last, who knows? I can remember back in the eighties when the Yen was highly touted as the currency of the future, but as history has shown us, it didn't happen. The dollar came back.
In all the modern day prophetic literature, one thing also stands out, that is the United States is not mentioned. Perhaps this why I feel that the United States is a nation apart, sanctified if you will, because we are One Nation Under God founded on Godly principles. Another reason is that we are the most blessed nation on the face of this earth is that we are Israel' s only real alli.
God says in His Word that he would bless the nation that blesses Israel and curse the ones that are against Israel. I have noticed that when the United States was coddling the Palestinian Liberation Orginization, for instance when Yassir Arafat was allowed to stay at Whitehouse, things, mostly a lot of little things started turning negative. Then President Clinton's troubles and scandals started to surface. When President Bush reestablished support for Israel, our nation's economy started booming. Israel has been an indispensible alli in the War on Terror.
Another thing that stands out about Lindsey's predictions from the seventies is that Gog and Magog, the southern states of former Soviet Union are Islamic, along with all the nations of Europe would rise up against Israel. What puzzeled me about this was how could Christian nations such as Italy and France knowing what the Jews have gone through with the holocaust and present day anti-semitism go along with the destruction with Israel? The answer is becoming more clear. The immigration of Muslims into Europe has reached alarming proportions. While the Europeans have been engaging in immoral sexual behavior and aborting their babies, the average Muslim family is having an average of eight offspring. Already, throngs of Muslims are marching and making demands throughout Europe. The passive governments are cowering to the demands made and the situation is getting worse. In the not too distant future, the French are going to wake up to discover that they are now an Islamic republic.
Since the United States is not referred to in the end time prophesies, one of two or both of these things may take place. The tribulation, destruction of Israel along with armegeddon would confined to just that part of the world and it would happen so fast that the United States would not have time to react. The other really scares me, that the United States abandons Israel and leaves them hanging out to dry. Israel is left with only its Samson Option, destroy yourselves and take as many enemies with you as you can. A lot depends on who we can elect President of the United States whether or not the United States supports Israel. The Europeans consider themselves to be superior and enlightened who have failed to learn from the lessons of history and therefore doomed to repeat it. Sorry I have to say this, but I fear that Europe is on the fast track to hell.
Perhaps satan has placed blinders on a lot of people because they refuse to recognize the real enemy. These are the same people that were sacraficing their children to idols 3500 years ago by throwing them into a firey cauldron. What's the difference if they strap suicide bombs on their children and send them into shopping districts in the name of jihad. Islamic extremists are evil, wicked and to them life is cheap.
As current events unfold, such as what's happening with Iran and its all too familiar rhetoric coming from its leaders, it is extremely important this next presidential election who we put in the Oval Office. A president who wants us to liked by the rest of the world and join with them, or a president who will stand up for us and Israel and adhere to our Constitution, keeping us apart from the rest of the world. God has plainly stated, "I will bless the nation that stands with Israel."
