The EU, Emmanuel Macron and the New World Order.
The EU is in crisis and one man who is offering to lead the way out is France’s President Emmanuel Macron. Is this significant?
The revival of an entity like the Roman Empire in the last days is implied in such passages as Daniel 2, Daniel 7, Revelation 17. Revelation 17.11 speaks of five kings that have fallen (empires preceding the time when John wrote Revelation), one that is (the Roman Empire) and one that is to come (the revived Roman Empire of the last days’ prophecy). Out of this entity the beast or antichrist will arise: ‘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. The beast that was, and is not, is himself also the eighth, and is of the seven, and is going to perdition.’
One interpretation of prophecy is that the EU is the revived Roman Empire, bringing European nations together under the Treaty of Rome. Its aim is to unite the nations of Europe to bring peace and prosperity in place of centuries of conflict between European nations. Now the EU ideal is in deep trouble because of financial issues relating to the Euro and the Coronavirus pandemic. Borders are going up, reversing the EU policy of open borders, and nations are acting in their own interests, not as a unity of European partnership. There is a growing financial crisis in southern European countries, Italy especially, which threatens the existence of the Euro currency.
The deepening divisions among European nations over their response to the coronavirus pandemic caused Italian Prime Minister Giuseppe Conte to warn that if the EU proved unable to help member states in their hour of need, it was in danger of collapse. “If we do not seize the opportunity to put new life into the European project, the risk of failure is real,” Mr Conte said.
Into this crisis, France’s President Macron is making a pitch for EU leadership, challenging Angela Merkel and Germany. He is telling the EU that it faces a “moment of truth” as it reckons with the devastating financial fallout of the coronavirus pandemic, warning that “the populists will win” and the bloc will splinter if it is unable to unify in its response. The French leader said there was “no choice” but to set up a fund that “could issue common debt with a common guarantee” to finance member states according to their needs rather than the size of their economies.
Emmanuel Macron is also busy on the world stage. He has made a call for global peace, saying he has backing for a world truce during the coronavirus pandemic and is hopeful he can secure Russian President Vladimir Putin’s support. Speaking on French radio, Macron said he had secured the agreement of several of the five permanent members of the United Nations Security Council to back a call by the UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres for a global ceasefire. Macron said that China, the US and the UK were on board and he was optimistic about Russia. “President Xi Jinping confirmed his agreement to me,” said Macron. “President Trump confirmed his agreement to me. Prime Minister Boris Johnson confirmed his agreement to me. I think President Putin will definitely agree too.”
Pope Francis gave him his backing, calling for an “immediate global ceasefire” and an end to weapons manufacturing in a special address after Easter mass on Sunday. “This is not a time for continuing to manufacture and deal in arms, spending vast amounts of money that ought to be used to care for others and save lives,” he said. Macron had phone meeting with Pope on April 20 at which he received Pope’s blessing and full support in his attempt to ‘reset the world economy.’
Macron also took a leading role at a virtual meeting of world leaders on the Covid 19 crisis, along with Microsoft billionaire, Bill Gates. The purpose was to find global unity and common purpose in order to defeat the virus. Gates is funding efforts to find a coronavirus vaccine which he wants to be given to all people on earth, along with a programme for a global digital ID. Macron told the meeting: “We will continue now to mobilise all G7 and G20 countries so they get behind this initiative. And I hope we will be able to reconcile around this joint initiative both China and the US, because this is about saying the fight against Covid-19 is a common human good and there should be no division in order to win this battle.”.
Global leaders have pledged to accelerate cooperation on a coronavirus vaccine and to share research, treatment and medicines across the globe. But the United States did not take part in the World Health Organisation initiative, in a sign of Donald Trump’s increasing isolation on the global stage.
On this point CNN posted an article with the headline, ‘France’s Macron positioning himself as leader of the world.’ It concluded, ‘Indeed it would appear that the world could use a new leader at a time of crisis – one who is prepared to put global interests above personal or political aggrandisement. And until the United States is prepared to offer such an individual, there may be no better to fill that void than France’s young fresh voice, Emmanuel Macron.’ https://edition.cnn.com/2020/04/15
Emmanuel means ‘God with us’. So is Macron the man with the plan who will take up world leadership in the coming tribulation time? We cannot say for sure, but from my understanding it is likely that the antichrist is around on the world stage already, if we are nearing the time of the seven year tribulation time that will precede the coming of the Lord Jesus to the earth. He should be a reasonably young man, not an aged politician in his 70s, with time and energy to implement his plan (Macron is 43). Most likely he should emerge out of the EU, with an interest in promoting global peace and Middle East peace (the rider on the white horse of Revelation 6.2, who promises peace and safety and the ‘prince to come’ of Daniel 9.26-7 who makes the seven year covenant with Israel). Note that Macron has also shown a desire to work for a Middle East peace settlement. I am not saying Macron is definitely the man, and against this we have to recognise that he is unpopular amongst many in France. But he is certainly someone to watch, especially if he does come up with a plan to hold the EU together and takes a significant place in EU leadership.
When he was inaugurated as President of France in 2017 the ceremony took place in front of the pyramid outside the Louvre in Paris. Macron was silhouetted against the pyramid and the image of the ‘eye in the triangle’ appeared, the occult symbol of the New World Order’ on the back of the dollar, that prophecy teacher Barry Smith used to make so much about. He strode onto the podium to the sound of the Euro anthem, not the French national anthem, the Marseillaise. The Euro anthem is set to the music of Beethoven’s 9th, the Choral Symphony, which uses the words of the German poet Friedrich Schiller’s ‘Ode to Joy’:
Freude, schöner Götterfunken
Tochter aus Elysium,
Wir betreten feuertrunken,
Himmlische, dein Heiligtum!
Deine Zauber binden wieder
Was die Mode streng geteilt;
Alle Menschen werden Brüder,
Tochter aus Elysium,
Wir betreten feuertrunken,
Himmlische, dein Heiligtum!
Deine Zauber binden wieder
Was die Mode streng geteilt;
Alle Menschen werden Brüder,
English translation
Joy, bright spark of the gods (note plural gods),
Daughter of Elysium,
Drunk with fire we tread
Heavenly one your sanctuary.
Thy magic power re-unites
All that custom has divided,
All men become brothers,
Daughter of Elysium,
Drunk with fire we tread
Heavenly one your sanctuary.
Thy magic power re-unites
All that custom has divided,
All men become brothers,
Schiller was certainly not thinking of the God of the Bible in this poem, but pagan gods who inhabit a ‘heavenly place’ that uses ‘magic power’ to unite humanity. Schiller was a noted Freemason, along with the other famous German poet of his time, Goethe. His poem is looking to the occult realm with the aim of unifying humanity under a demonic power. This is the spirit behind the EU anthem that Macron chose to celebrate his victory in France’s election. Watch this space.
