Some people are saying over the Internet that I have allegedly said that the newly appointed president of the EU, Herman Van Rompuy, was undeniably the Antichrist. However, that was not what I had said at all. Instead, what I had said was that he fits the general description of the Antichrist, but, and this is a very big, BUT, that I would not know for sure who the Antichrist was until I saw him confirm a seven year covenant between Israel and Palestine. [N.B. At the time of the writing of this piece, I also believe that if the world is to see a separate Palestinian state that whoever signed off on that more than likely would be the Antichrist.]
At the time of this writing that has not happened. As that is the case, I am then NOT saying that Van Rompuy is the Antichrist until I see him confirm a seven-year covenant and then break the treaty midway through the seven years and then move into a newly built temple, and from there proclaim to be God reincarnate here on the earth.
There is no information that I have any access to at all that says that Van Rompuy is going to confirm a seven-year covenant between Israel and Palestine. Accordingly, there is no point in my claiming to know something that I do not. To do so is nothing more than pie in the sky type of stuff. If any such information were to come forth, it needs substantiation otherwise it is nothing more than just pure conjecture with no real facts whatsoever.
However, that is not to advocate that any other information comparative to the suggestion that Van Rompuy is the Antichrist should be dismissed out of hand as being irrelevant or inconsequential just because we have not seen the latter portions of the prophecies concerning the Antichrist (as has been mentioned above) fullfilled. Coincidentally, there are some who are appearing to suggest that should be the case?
On the contrary, there is a great deal of information that is readily available to suggest, (that indeed) there are very strong indicators to suggest that Van Rompuy is the Antichrist even though the latter portions of the prophecies concerning the Antichrist have not (as yet) come to pass.
As the old saying goes, the proof of the pudding is in the eating. Accordingly, as proof positive of one's point of view all that is required in this instance is reference to the Holy Scriptures.
The situation that I am about to make mention of here does not refer to something that is away off into the future, but instead refers to something that has already taken place? Therefore, we are speaking here in terms of a situation that is occurring and ongoing even as I write this piece. Not something suggested by those who study Bible prophecy in which they suggest what is going to happen comparative to the Antichrist is a long way off into the future or that he has to move into a temple before we would know just who he is.
May I also note the glaring obvious information that I am going to mention here is not dependant on other prophecies happening as if to prove what has already taking place?
Even though I am presenting certain facts here, there are still those who study Bible prophecy that will not change a point of view they had been taught years and years ago, no matter what information one is able to present to contradict their particular perspective. To those I would say let them carry on with their own system of belief, as the truth, and the whole truth of the matter, will come out sooner rather than later.
As most of those who have been students of prophecy over a number of years would realize the first half of Revelation Chapter 13 refers to the Antichrist, while the second portion of Revelation Chapter 13 refers to the False Prophet. Accordingly, for the sake of this exercise we need to study the first portion of Revelation Chapter 13 only.
REVELATION CHAPTER 13 VERSES 1 TO 10
1 And I stood upon the sand of the sea, and saw a beast rise up out of the sea, having seven heads and ten horns, and upon his horns ten crowns, and upon his heads the name of blasphemy.
2 And the beast which I saw was like unto a leopard, and his feet were as the feet of a bear, and his mouth as the mouth of a lion: and the dragon gave him his power, and his seat, and great authority.
3 And I saw one of his heads as it were wounded to death; and his deadly wound was healed: and all the world wondered after the beast.
4 And they worshipped the dragon which gave power unto the beast: and they worshipped the beast, saying, Who is like unto the beast? who is able to make war with him?
5 And there was given unto him a mouth speaking great things and blasphemies; and power was given unto him to continue forty and two months.
6 And he opened his mouth in blasphemy against God, to blaspheme his name, and his tabernacle, and them that dwell in heaven.
7 And it was given unto him to make war with the saints, and to overcome them: and power was given him over all kindreds, and tongues, and nations.
8 And all that dwell upon the earth shall worship him, whose names are not written in the book of life of the Lamb slain from the foundation of the world.
9 If any man have an ear, let him hear.
10 He that leadeth into captivity shall go into captivity: he that killeth with the sword must be killed with the sword. Here is the patience and the faith of the saints.
There was a time, not all that long ago at around about the end of 2009, those who study the Bible prophecies were eagerly awaiting the approval of the Lisbon Treaty. We knew that from that point onwards what were effectively going to see was going to be the confirmation of the EU constitution. Once that had taken place, those of us who study Bible prophecy would more than likely see the Antichrist revealed in that in the appointment as the first ever full time president of the EU.
Those of us who were watching Bible prophecy for a number of years were slightly disappointed at the time the announcement was made as to just who was going to be the first ever full time president of the EU for a number of reasons. The main reason being they had thought that in the appointment of the EU president, they were going to get a man of enormous charisma who was going to represent the EU on the world stage. Instead, what they had gotten instead as the first ever full time president of the EU was someone who seemed to represent the complete opposite in the form of Herman Van Rompuy.
When instead, what they were looking for a man who would rule with an iron fist. What seems to have happened is that Satan who had brought forth a man that appeared to be everything that the Antichrist was not supposed to be, meek and humble. Some politicians even described the newly appointed EU president as having the charisma of a damp rag, and the all the charm of a bank clerk.
Just as soon as he came to power one of the first things that he managed to do was to subdue three nations (3) nations, just as the prophecy said would be the case. Those nations were Greece, Ireland and Portugal, the nations offered bailout packages because of the economic crisis they were facing, and still are facing, at the time of the writing of this piece.
There has also been another quite clever ploy by Satan that also seems to have fooled everyone. Instead, of appointing the first ever full time president of the EU as the president of the United States, meaning that the cat would be out of the bag so to speak relative to his correct identity, what he had done instead was to simply appoint Van Rompuy as the president of the European Union Council of Ministers. What that really meant was that as the president of the Council of Ministers, he really did not have a great deal of power at all - but that was all to change later on down the track.
There are 17 member nations in the EU and keeping in mind that as the president of the Council of Ministers Van Rompuy represents the 27 member nations of the EU and that after that appointment as the president of the Council of Ministers, he has since been further promoted to head of the Economic Government of Europe.
The 27 member nations of the EU are:
Austria, Belgium, Bulgaria, Cyprus, the Czech Republic, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Ireland, Italy, Latvia, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Malta, the Netherlands, Poland, Portugal, Romania, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain, Sweden, and the United Kingdom.[
These are the 17 nations mentioned above who have adopted the Euro.
The Eurozone currently consists of Austria, Belgium, Cyprus, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Ireland, Italy, Luxembourg, Malta, the Netherlands, Portugal, Slovakia, Slovenia, and Spain.
As per the prophecy of Revelation Chapter 13, seven of those nations are the heads, or the governing bodies. (Including Belgium) The remaining numbers of those 10 nations are the ten CROWNS mentioned in the prophecy.
There are 27; member nations of the EU there are still 10 member nations of the EU outside the eurozone that do not use the euro. Those ten nations are Bulgaria, the Czech Republic, Denmark, Hungary, Latvia, Lithuania, Poland, Romania, Sweden, and the United Kingdom.
Those nations mentioned in the prophecy as the CROWNS that are upon the HORNS. The second verse is quite self-explanatory so there is no need to explain it in any detail as that is not the purpose of this article.
If we were then to add those nations mentioned in the prophecy as being the ten horns, the ten crowns, and the seven heads we would then be able to see that what that totals up to is 27, with there being 27 member nations of the EU. Is that a coincidence, I think not.
Right about now there are going to be some who are thinking, well what I have said above is correct, but that still does not mean Van Rompuy is the Antichrist but that all that is happening is that everything is being set up so that the real Antichrist could simply take over. However, if that were the case and one more nation happened to join the EU, then that would effectively through a complete spanner in the works and make the prophecy of the 27 nations untrue. As that is the case, then what we are seeing unfolding would have to make the now the correct fulfilment of the prophecies and not some future event.
As an adjunct, when it says the Antichrist receives a wound to death, it does not infer the Antichrist receives a wound that results in his death and then miraculously recovers by having a resurrection akin to the resurrection of Christ. With Satan that is impossible as Satan only takes life and souls -- but does not give life.
The third verse refers to one of the heads as having a fatal wound. See the aforementioned. That is, it refers to one of the governing bodies of the eurozone as having a fatal wound.
Therefore, it does not refer to the man, the Antichrist, as having a fatal wound, but instead refers to a nation - Belgium. More correctly, it is telling us the Antichrist is an ex Belgium Prime Minister.
The founder of the EU was Henri Spaak, a former Belgium Prime Minister is the one who has had the fatal wound, but the wound healed when another Belgium Prime Minister, Herman Van Rompuy, replaces him.
Therefore the verses are telling us that the Antichrist from Belgium and is an ex Belgium Prime Minister, as per the above mentioned.
Please note: The above explanation does not give me the right to say, or make claim to being a prophet, as I am not saying right here right now that I am to see into the future, but that I have only noted the aforementioned after the prophecy has been fulfilled, and not before. Hindsight is a wonderful thing.
