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 />
are becom<strong>in</strong>g hopelessly fastened <strong>in</strong> the cha<strong>in</strong>s of error. <strong>The</strong>y see that the truth for<br />
this time is pla<strong>in</strong>ly brought to view <strong>in</strong> the Bible; and they feel the power of the Holy<br />
Spirit attend<strong>in</strong>g its proclamation; yet they allow the opposition of the clergy to turn<br />
them from the light. Though reason and conscience are conv<strong>in</strong>ced, these deluded souls<br />
dare not th<strong>in</strong>k differently from the m<strong>in</strong>ister; and their <strong>in</strong>dividual judgment, their<br />
eternal <strong>in</strong>terests, are sacrificed to the unbelief, the pride and prejudice, of another.<br />
Many are the ways <strong>by</strong> which Satan works through human <strong>in</strong>fluence to b<strong>in</strong>d his<br />
captives. He secures multitudes to himself <strong>by</strong> attach<strong>in</strong>g them <strong>by</strong> the silken cords of<br />
affection to those who are enemies of the cross of Christ. Whatever this attachment<br />
may be, parental, filial, conjugal, or social, the effect is the same; the opposers of truth<br />
exert their power to control the conscience, and the souls held under their sway have<br />
not sufficient courage or <strong>in</strong>dependence to obey their own convictions of duty. <strong>The</strong><br />
truth and the glory of God are <strong>in</strong>separable; it is impossible for us, with the Bible<br />
with<strong>in</strong> our reach, to honour God <strong>by</strong> erroneous op<strong>in</strong>ions. Many claim that it matters<br />
not what one believes, if his life is only right. But the life is molded <strong>by</strong> the faith. If<br />
light and truth is with<strong>in</strong> our reach, and we neglect to improve the privilege of hear<strong>in</strong>g<br />
and see<strong>in</strong>g it, we virtually reject it; we are choos<strong>in</strong>g darkness rather than light.<br />
"<strong>The</strong>re is a way that seemeth right unto a man, but the end thereof are the ways<br />
of death." Proverbs 16:25. Ignorance is no excuse for error or s<strong>in</strong>, when there is every<br />
opportunity to know the will of God. A man is travel<strong>in</strong>g and comes to a place where<br />
there are several roads and a guideboard <strong>in</strong>dicat<strong>in</strong>g where each one leads. If he<br />
disregards the guideboard, and takes whichever road seems to him to be right, he may<br />
be ever so s<strong>in</strong>cere, but will <strong>in</strong> all probability f<strong>in</strong>d himself on the wrong road.<br />
God has given us His word that we may become acqua<strong>in</strong>ted with its teach<strong>in</strong>gs<br />
and know for ourselves what He requires of us. When the lawyer came to Jesus with<br />
the <strong>in</strong>quiry, "What shall I do to <strong>in</strong>herit eternal life?" the Saviour referred him to the<br />
Scriptures, say<strong>in</strong>g: "What is written <strong>in</strong> the law? how readest thou?" Ignorance will not<br />
excuse young or old, nor release them from the punishment due for the transgression<br />
of God's law; because there is <strong>in</strong> their hands a faithful presentation of that law and of<br />
its pr<strong>in</strong>ciples and claims. It is not enough to have good <strong>in</strong>tentions; it is not enough to<br />
do what a man th<strong>in</strong>ks is right or what the m<strong>in</strong>ister tells him is right. His soul's<br />
salvation is at stake, and he should search the Scriptures for himself. However strong<br />
