BERLIN (AP) — Pope Francis has been named as the winner of the International Charlemagne Prize, awarded annually by the German city of Aachen for contributions to European unity.

The prize committee said Wednesday that the pontiff has sent “a message of hope and encouragement” at a time in which “many citizens in Europe are seeking orientation,” news agency dpa reported.

The prize is usually awarded in Aachen but the 2016 prize will be handed over in Rome. There was no immediate word on the date. http://news.yahoo.com/pope-francis-awarded-prestigious-german-european-unity-prize-113235292.html

Pope Francis is slated to be the next recipient of the annual award, which is handed out by the German city of Aachen in honor of those who promote European unity.

More specifically, the prize is given to people or institutions “distinguished by their outstanding work toward European unity or cooperation between its states.”

The prize committee said Wednesday the leader of 1.2 billion Catholics has acted as a “voice of conscience” urging Europe to put people and values at the center of its politics.

“In these times, in which many citizens in Europe seek orientation, His Holiness Pope Francis sends a message of love and encouragement,” the prize committee said in a statement.

The prize is usually given out in Aachen but in 2016 will be delivered in Rome. http://www.dw.com/en/pope-francis-to-receive-the-charlemagne-prize-2016/a-18936349

The Vatican has long pushed European unity.

The Bible tells of a unity between Europe and the church on the seven-hills in Revelation 17:5-9.

Although that relationship will end (Revelation 17:15-16), the Bible tells of a religious leader who is instrumental in promoting the final European Beast of the sea in Revelation 13.

This year, Pope Francis has been working towards not only European unity, but his version of religious unity, as well as ‘climate change’ unity around the world.

4 And I heard another voice from heaven saying, “Come out of her, my people, lest you share in her sins, and lest you receive of her plagues. 5 For her sins have reached to heaven, and God has remembered her iniquities. 6 Render to her just as she rendered to you, and repay her double according to her works; in the cup which she has mixed, mix double for her. 7 In the measure that she glorified herself and lived luxuriously, in the same measure give her torment and sorrow; for she says in her heart, ‘I sit as queen, and am no widow, and will not see sorrow.’ 8 Therefore her plagues will come in one day — death and mourning and famine. And she will be utterly burned with fire, for strong is the Lord God who judges her. (Revelation 18:4-8)

Despite warnings about this in the Bible in places such as the 17th and 18th chapter of the Book of Revelation, Pope Francis continues to promote something that the Bible warns against.
