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 />
hav<strong>in</strong>g been translated from the earth, from among the liv<strong>in</strong>g, are counted as "the<br />
first fruits unto God and to the Lamb." Revelation 15:2, 3; 14:1-5. "<strong>The</strong>se are they<br />
which came out of great tribulation;" they have passed through the time of trouble<br />
such as never was s<strong>in</strong>ce there was a nation; they have endured the anguish of the<br />
time of Jacob's trouble; they have stood without an <strong>in</strong>tercessor through the f<strong>in</strong>al<br />
outpour<strong>in</strong>g of God's judgments. But they have been delivered, for they have "washed<br />
their robes, and made them white <strong>in</strong> the blood of the Lamb."<br />
"In their mouth was found no guile: for they are without fault" before God.<br />
"<strong>The</strong>refore are they before the throne of God, and serve Him day and night <strong>in</strong> His<br />
temple: and He that sitteth on the throne shall dwell among them." <strong>The</strong>y have seen<br />
the earth wasted with fam<strong>in</strong>e and pestilence, the sun hav<strong>in</strong>g power to scorch men<br />
with great heat, and they themselves have endured suffer<strong>in</strong>g, hunger, and thirst. But<br />
"they shall hunger no more, neither thirst any more; neither shall the sun light on<br />
them, nor any heat. For the Lamb which is <strong>in</strong> the midst of the throne shall feed them,<br />
and shall lead them unto liv<strong>in</strong>g founta<strong>in</strong>s of waters: and God shall wipe away all tears<br />
from their eyes." Revelation 7:14-17.<br />
In all ages the Saviour's chosen have been educated and discipl<strong>in</strong>ed <strong>in</strong> the school<br />
of trial. <strong>The</strong>y walked <strong>in</strong> narrow paths on earth; they were purified <strong>in</strong> the furnace of<br />
affliction. For Jesus' sake they endured opposition, hatred, calumny. <strong>The</strong>y followed<br />
Him through conflicts sore; they endured selfdenial and experienced bitter<br />
disappo<strong>in</strong>tments. By their own pa<strong>in</strong>ful experience they learned the evil of s<strong>in</strong>, its<br />
power, its guilt, its woe; and they look upon it with abhorrence. A sense of the <strong>in</strong>f<strong>in</strong>ite<br />
sacrifice made for its cure humbles them <strong>in</strong> their own sight and fills their hearts with<br />
gratitude and praise which those who have never fallen cannot appreciate. <strong>The</strong>y love<br />
much because they have been forgiven much. Hav<strong>in</strong>g been partakers of Christ's<br />
suffer<strong>in</strong>gs, they are fitted to be partakers with Him of His glory.<br />
<strong>The</strong> heirs of God have come from garrets, from hovels, from dungeons, from<br />
scaffolds, from mounta<strong>in</strong>s, from deserts, from the caves of the earth, from the caverns<br />
of the sea. On earth they were "destitute, afflicted, tormented." Millions went down to<br />
the grave loaded with <strong>in</strong>famy because they steadfastly refused to yield to the deceptive<br />
claims of Satan. By human tribunals they were adjudged the vilest of crim<strong>in</strong>als. But<br />
now "God is judge Himself." Psalm 50:6. Now the decisions of earth are reversed. "<strong>The</strong><br />
