A group of EU foreign ministers discussed the idea of merging the European Union’s top jobs into one on April 19, the EU Observer reports, coining the term “super-president” to describe the new top job.
The jobs of European Council president, currently
held by Herman Van Rompuy, and European Commission president, currently held by
José Manuel Barroso, may be merged. “The new super-president would also chair
General Affairs Councils (gacs)—monthly
meetings of foreign ministers which discuss internal Union affairs,” writes
the EU Observer. Its source reports that experts believe this
can be done without a treaty change.
The idea emerged from a meeting of 10 EU foreign
ministers organized by German Foreign Minister Guido Westerwelle to discuss
closer European integration. Sometimes called the “Berlin Club,” the group usually has 11 members: Austria,
Belgium, Denmark, France, Germany, Italy, Luxembourg, the Netherlands, Poland,
Portugal and Spain. The French foreign minister, however, was not able to
attend this last meeting.
These ministers see that for Europe to become
better integrated it needs a strong central leader. As the euro crisis pushes
those nations that are committed to remaining in the euro closer together,
watch for this idea to become more popular. Europe knows it needs a strong
central leader to respond to the dangers of today’s world.
in
light of the reality of a Super EU president being created there are a couple
of possibilities that readily come to the fore.
Sarkozy
looks like he has just about lost the French elections so that may put him in
line for the presidency of the EU?
President-elect Vladimir Putin tried
to distance himself from the fraud-tainted ruling United Russia party
on Tuesday, announcing he was stepping down as its chairperson and calling on
it to be more competitive. Accordingly, that then may also place him in line as
the first Super President of the EU.
However, whoever fulfils that role is
none other than the Antichrist himself. Those are only suggestions and as that
is the case, then I am not suggesting that either one of them is the Antichrist
as there may as yet be someone we have never heard of that is going to come to
the fore to take on the role of the Antichrist, he being the Son of Satan.
WHY I AM NOT A DISPENSATIONALIST; John Nelson Darby is recognized as the father of dispensationalism later made popular in the United States by Cyrus Scofield's Scofield Reference Bible. Charles Henry Mackintosh, 1820–1896, with his popular style spread Darby's teachings to humbler elements in society and may be regarded as the journalist of the Brethren Movement. CHM popularised Darby more than any other Brethren author. As there was no Christian teaching of a “rapture” before Darby began preaching about it in the 1830s, he is sometimes credited with originating the "secret rapture" theory wherein Christ will suddenly remove His bride, the Church, from this world before the judgments of the tribulation. Dispensationalist beliefs about the fate of the Jews and the re-establishment of the Kingdom of Israel put dispensationalists at the forefront of Christian Zionism, because "God is able to graft them in again," and they believe that in His grace he will do so according to their understanding of Old Testament prophecy. They believe that, while the methodologies of God may change, His purposes to bless Israel will never be forgotten, just as He has shown unmerited favour to the Church, He will do so to a remnant of Israel to fulfill all the promises made to the genetic seed of Abraham. I am not a dispensationalist; it is unbiblical and thoroughly evil.
