The European Union in Prophecy by Ellen White
The European Union in Prophecy provides insightful perspectives on the E.U. both as a political project in integration and a transformation of an ancient order. One would discern that the aligned and centralised powers, which firmly resolved on unification, conceived and instituted united kingdoms, united states and united nations, still persevere in their efforts for a more robust and resilient E.U. However, unknown to most, the territorial aggrandisement, economic and military supremacy and global dominance of the E.U. have all been foretold in prophecy, millennia before the reign of the first European monarch. Spiritual forces that engineered the rise of the European thrones, also calculated the suppression of dissidence and incited merciless carnage. Although now paraded as an industrialised paragon of progress and self-made sophistication, this book elucidates on the enigmatic and clandestine alliances, decrees and dogmas that consolidated Eurocentricity that moulded modern civilisation. Indeed, despite rooted religiopolitical tensions and divergences, a peculiar one-minded homogenisation facilitates the unification process. Keywords

<strong>The</strong> <strong>European</strong> <strong>Union</strong> <strong>in</strong> <strong>Prophecy</strong><br />
<strong>The</strong> vague and fanciful <strong>in</strong>terpretations of Scripture, and the many conflict<strong>in</strong>g<br />
theories concern<strong>in</strong>g religious faith, that are found <strong>in</strong> the Christian world are the work<br />
of our great adversary to confuse m<strong>in</strong>ds so that they shall not discern the truth. And<br />
the discord and division which exist among the churches of Christendom are <strong>in</strong> a great<br />
measure due to the prevail<strong>in</strong>g custom of wrest<strong>in</strong>g the Scriptures to support a favorite<br />
theory. Instead of carefully study<strong>in</strong>g God's word with humility of heart to obta<strong>in</strong> a<br />
knowledge of His will, many seek only to discover someth<strong>in</strong>g odd or orig<strong>in</strong>al.<br />
In order to susta<strong>in</strong> erroneous doctr<strong>in</strong>es or unchristian practices, some will seize<br />
upon passages of Scripture separated from the context, perhaps quot<strong>in</strong>g half of a<br />
s<strong>in</strong>gle verse as prov<strong>in</strong>g their po<strong>in</strong>t, when the rema<strong>in</strong><strong>in</strong>g portion would show the<br />
mean<strong>in</strong>g to be quite the opposite. With the cunn<strong>in</strong>g of the serpent they entrench<br />
themselves beh<strong>in</strong>d disconnected utterances construed to suit their carnal desires.<br />
Thus do many willfully pervert the word of God. Others, who have an active<br />
imag<strong>in</strong>ation, seize upon the figures and symbols of Holy Writ, <strong>in</strong>terpret them to suit<br />
their fancy, with little regard to the testimony of Scripture as its own <strong>in</strong>terpreter, and<br />
then they present their vagaries as the teach<strong>in</strong>gs of the Bible.<br />
Whenever the study of the Scriptures is entered upon without a prayerful,<br />
humble, teachable spirit, the pla<strong>in</strong>est and simplest as well as the most difficult<br />
passages will be wrested from their true mean<strong>in</strong>g. <strong>The</strong> papal leaders select such<br />
portions of Scripture as best serve their purpose, <strong>in</strong>terpret to suit themselves, and<br />
then present these to the people, while they deny them the privilege of study<strong>in</strong>g the<br />
Bible and understand<strong>in</strong>g its sacred truths for themselves. <strong>The</strong> whole Bible should be<br />
given to the people just as it reads. It would be better for them not to have Bible<br />
<strong>in</strong>struction at all than to have the teach<strong>in</strong>g of the Scriptures thus grossly<br />
misrepresented.<br />
<strong>The</strong> Bible was designed to be a guide to all who wish to become acqua<strong>in</strong>ted with<br />
the will of their Maker. God gave to men the sure word of prophecy; angels and even<br />
Christ Himself came to make known to Daniel and John the th<strong>in</strong>gs that must shortly<br />
come to pass. Those important matters that concern our salvation were not left<br />
<strong>in</strong>volved <strong>in</strong> mystery. <strong>The</strong>y were not revealed <strong>in</strong> such a way as to perplex and mislead<br />
the honest seeker after truth. Said the Lord <strong>by</strong> the prophet Habakkuk: "Write the<br />
vision, and make it pla<strong>in</strong>, . . . that he may run that readeth it." Habakkuk 2:2. <strong>The</strong><br />
