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 />
Those professed Christians who come up to that last fearful conflict unprepared<br />
will, <strong>in</strong> their despair, confess their s<strong>in</strong>s <strong>in</strong> words of burn<strong>in</strong>g anguish, while the wicked<br />
exult over their distress. <strong>The</strong>se confessions are of the same character as was that of<br />
Esau or of Judas. Those who make them, lament the result of transgression, but not<br />
its guilt. <strong>The</strong>y feel no true contrition, no abhorrence of evil. <strong>The</strong>y acknowledge their<br />
s<strong>in</strong>, through fear of punishment; but, like Pharaoh of old, they would return to their<br />
defiance of Heaven should the judgments be removed.<br />
Jacob's history is also an assurance that God will not cast off those who have<br />
been deceived and tempted and betrayed <strong>in</strong>to s<strong>in</strong>, but who have returned unto Him<br />
with true repentance. While Satan seeks to destroy this class, God will send His<br />
angels to comfort and protect them <strong>in</strong> the time of peril. <strong>The</strong> assaults of Satan are fierce<br />
and determ<strong>in</strong>ed, his delusions are terrible; but the Lord's eye is upon His people, and<br />
His ear listens to their cries. <strong>The</strong>ir affliction is great, the flames of the furnace seem<br />
about to consume them; but the Ref<strong>in</strong>er will br<strong>in</strong>g them forth as gold tried <strong>in</strong> the fire.<br />
God's love for His children dur<strong>in</strong>g the period of their severest trial is as strong and<br />
tender as <strong>in</strong> the days of their sunniest prosperity; but it is needful for them to be<br />
placed <strong>in</strong> the furnace of fire; their earthl<strong>in</strong>ess must be consumed, that the image of<br />
Christ may be perfectly reflected.<br />
<strong>The</strong> season of distress and anguish before us will require a faith that can endure<br />
wear<strong>in</strong>ess, delay, and hunger--a faith that will not fa<strong>in</strong>t though severely tried. <strong>The</strong><br />
period of probation is granted to all to prepare for that time. Jacob prevailed because<br />
he was persever<strong>in</strong>g and determ<strong>in</strong>ed. His victory is an evidence of the power of<br />
importunate prayer. All who will lay hold of God's promises, as he did, and be as<br />
earnest and persever<strong>in</strong>g as he was, will succeed as he succeeded. Those who are<br />
unwill<strong>in</strong>g to deny self, to agonize before God, to pray long and earnestly for His<br />
bless<strong>in</strong>g, will not obta<strong>in</strong> it.<br />
Wrestl<strong>in</strong>g with God--how few know what it is! How few have ever had their souls<br />
drawn out after God with <strong>in</strong>tensity of desire until every power is on the stretch. When<br />
waves of despair which no language can express sweep over the suppliant, how few<br />
cl<strong>in</strong>g with unyield<strong>in</strong>g faith to the promises of God. Those who exercise but little faith<br />
now, are <strong>in</strong> the greatest danger of fall<strong>in</strong>g under the power of satanic delusions and<br />
the decree to compel the conscience. And even if they endure the test they will be<br />
