Is America Pushing Europe Together?

While commentators in the media and government debate the consequences of rapidly developing world events, Bible prophecies provide unique insights about the future that are missing from these discussions. The Bible predicts the rise of a European “beast” power at the end of the age. This “beast” will be a political and religiously supported entity that will become an economic and military powerhouse (see Revelation 13). It will emerge as the final revival of the ancient Roman Empire (Daniel 2:40–45)—and it will rule without the help of Britain and the United States.
From a global perspective, many current U.S. actions are viewed as divisive. North American and European relationships with the U.S. are strained by American actions that are seen as protectionist and isolationist. The current actions of the American government could facilitate the emergence of the European “beast” power. According to a recent report, “the mood in Europe now is one of anger, unity and determination…. Trump has accomplished what numerous European advocates of further EU integration failed to achieve: He’s convinced member states and Brussels that without a more muscular approach to trade and security, one based more on the hard knocks of geopolitics than on the appeal of soft power, the EU will be pushed around as a strategic actor in the global arena” (World Politics Review, June 6, 2018). The article concludes, “Hubert Vedrine, the former French foreign minister, has often argued that the EU must choose between whether it wants to be an enormous Switzerland or a global power. There is another alternative, that of a Fortress Europe: open, prosperous and protected within its borders, but suspicious of the world and using its power abroad for predatory purposes. Trump’s policies raise the risk that this alternative will prove attractive, which would be a loss for everyone”—Europe could become the “predator”—or “beast”—the Bible has predicted!
Quickly moving world events can be confusing. However, Bible prophecies reveal the unsuspected significance of events that will create headlines at the end of the age, just before the return of Jesus Christ. For more information about where such events are leading, be sure to read or listen to our free publication, The Beast of Revelation, Myth, Metaphor or Soon-Coming Reality?



Death by Plastic!

The amount of plastic waste in our environment is skyrocketing worldwide, and it is having a devastating impact. In Thailand, a pilot whale recently died “after swallowing more than 80 plastic bags” (The Guardian, June 2, 2018). Experts estimate that over 100,000 marine animals die each year as a result of plastic ingestion. In 2018, world plastic production will reach 360 million tonnes—a level that some believe will nearly double by 2030 (The Guardian, June 5, 2018)!
Once plastic reaches the environment, “it enters our food chain where, increasingly, microplastic particles are turning up in our stomachs, blood and lungs” (The Guardian, June 5, 2018). In seafood, shellfish—such as mussels and other mollusks—are the most likely to transmit plastics to humans because humans eat the digestive systems of these sea creatures (European Food Safety Agency, June 23, 2016). Plastics also make their way into groundwater and soil. To put the situation in context, some researchers suggest that “by 2050 the ocean will contain more plastic by weight than fish” (The Guardian, June 28, 2017)!
Plastic is versatile and very useful, but it is also the hallmark of a “throw-away” society. When humans were placed on the earth, God gave them specific commands to be good stewards of the environment He created for them (Genesis 2:15). Today, humanity has neglected this important responsibility, and we’re told that the “whole creation groans” in agony (Romans 8:22). Thankfully, “the creation itself also will be delivered from the bondage of corruption into the glorious liberty of the children of God” when Christ returns (v. 21)—liberty which will surely include a healthy environment and the will and knowledge to keep it that way. Today’s selfish society, which fails to think about the implications of its own actions, must come to an end soon so that humanity and the creation can be saved from destruction.
