US Vice President JD Vance visited the US base on Greenland yesterday and made some comments. Comments that the Danish government did not like:

January 8, 2025

Denmark has hit back against JD Vance’s comments that Copenhagen has not done enough for Greenland.

The US vice-president made his remark on Friday during a trip to the Pituffik space base in north-western Greenland, viewed by both Copenhagen and Nuuk as a provocation.

“Our message to Denmark is very simple: you have not done a good job by the people of Greenland,” Vance told a press conference.

“You have underinvested in the people of Greenland and you have underinvested in the security architecture of this incredible, beautiful landmass.”

The Danish foreign minister, Lars Løkke Rasmussen, said on X on Saturday: “We are open to criticisms, but let me be completely honest, we do not appreciate the tone in which it’s being delivered.

“This is not how you speak to your close allies, and I still consider Denmark and the United States to be close allies.”

Trump argues that the US needs the vast Arctic island for national and international security and has refused to rule out the use of force to secure it.

“I think Greenland understands that the United States should own it,” Vance said in a press conference on Friday. “And if Denmark and the EU don’t understand it, we have to explain it to them. We need Greenland. Very importantly, for international security, we have to have Greenland.” …

Asked about the potential use of force, Vance stressed the US administration did not think that “is ever going to be necessary”.

“We think this makes sense, and because we think the people of Greenland are rational and good, we think we’re going to be able to cut a deal, Donald Trump-style, to ensure the security of this territory but also the United States of America,” Vance said. …

Denmark’s prime minister, Mette Frederiksen, also hit back at Vance in a statement.

“For many years, we have stood by the Americans in very difficult situations,” she said, referring to Danish combat deployments alongside US troops in Iraq and Afghanistan.

“The vice-president’s reference to Denmark is not accurate.” …

Danish and Greenlandic officials, backed by the EU, have insisted that the US will not obtain Greenland. https://www.theguardian.com/world/2025/mar/29/denmark-hits-back-at-tone-of-us-vice-presidents-criticism-over-greenland

Yes, many in Greenland and in the EU are not pleased.

Some of Donald Trump’s and JD Vance’s statements are pushing US allies to consider being enemies. Notice also the following:

Are the United States and Europe still allies? The European public doesn’t think so

March 26, 2025

You are on your own.

That is essentially the lesson many US allies have taken from the events of the last few weeks, after President Donald Trump and his administration expressed unwillingness to defend European allies “if they don’t pay” and stopped all military aid and intelligence sharing with war-torn Ukraine.

Recent text messages from a group chat of US senior-most national-security officials are at the center of a US national security scandal—because the editor of The Atlantic magazine was inadvertently included in the chat, which featured detailed information about US plans to attack Houthi targets in Yemen. But the vitriol toward Europe was also palpable in that chat, showing European leaders how the Trump administration talks about them behind closed doors:

“I just hate bailing Europe out again,” Vice President J.D. Vance wrote.

“I fully share your loathing of European free-loading. It’s pathetic,” Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth responded.

Trump officials’ belligerent rhetoric and flippant actions against long-time US allies and partners stand in stark contrast with a major US rapprochement with Moscow that has severely undermined Western efforts to isolate Russia on the world stage since it invaded Ukraine in 2022. …

US allies and enemies alike increasingly think the United States will flake on its security obligations to its NATO allies. This should worry not only European leaders but US officials, too. …

European capitals may ultimately take Trump’s message seriously, deciding that the United States is not to be trusted as an ally. This could push US allies to exclude the United States from major defense planning, exercises, and acquisitions and turn toward US competitors for reassurance. …

Widespread perceptions that the United States might not defend its allies could have disastrous effects. …

In the United States and Poland—traditionally the key US East European ally—only half of the population now believes that the United States would come to defend a NATO ally if attacked. In Germany and the United Kingdom, this percentage dropped to merely 45 percent and 37 percent, respectively. https://thebulletin.org/2025/03/are-the-united-states-and-europe-still-allies-the-european-public-doesnt-think-so/

The insulting of allies is helping to turn them into enemies.

The Trump-Vance Administration has caused fears in Europe about the USA’s military commitments. The Continuing Church of God put together the following related video on our Bible News Prophecy YouTube channel discussing various views and scriptures about that:

14:48

Should Europe Still Consider Itself a US Ally?

The United States has paused aid to Ukraine. Europe is nervous and wonders if the United States’ commitment to European security is unclear. Some leaders in Europe “agree they must strengthen their defense capabilities”. Europe is dedicating huge amounts of money to weapons. And Europe’s military technology is advancing. Revelation 13 tell us of a militaristic “beast with a mortal head wound” – this is Europe. The Bible asks –“who can make war with the beast?” Is WWIII on the horizon? What nation is Lamentations 1:1-2 referring to who will be betrayed by her “friends”–and who are her “friends” that become her “enemies”? Dr. Thiel helps shine the light of Biblical prophecy on the answers to these questions. Answers from the verses of the Bible that bring prophecy to life.

Here is a link to our video: Should Europe Still Consider Itself a US Ally?

That said, here is some background related to the United States’ presence in Greenland:

After the German occupation of Denmark on 9 April 1940, Henrik Kauffmann, Danish Ambassador to the United States, made an agreement “In the name of the king” with the United States, authorizing the United States to defend the Danish colonies on Greenland from German aggression – this agreement faced Kauffmann with a charge of high treason by the protectorate Government. The first US-sponsored installations at Thule were established after the US Secretary of State Cordell Hull and the defected Danish Minister to the United States Henrik Kauffmann signed The Agreement relating to the Defense of Greenland in Washington, D.C., on the symbolically chosen date of 9 April 1941. The treaty, denounced by the Danish government, allowed the United States to operate military bases in Greenland “for as long as there is agreement” that the threat to North America existed. …

In 1949, Denmark joined NATO (North Atlantic Treaty Organization) and abandoned its attempt to remove the United States bases. By the outbreak of the Korean War next year, the USAF embarked on a global program of base-building in which Thule (at the time) would be considered the crown jewel owing to its location across the Pole from the USSR, as well as its merit of being the northernmost port to be reliably resupplied by ship. Thule became a key point in American nuclear retaliation strategy. Strategic Air Command (SAC) bombers flying over the Arctic presented less risk of early warning than using bases in the United Kingdom. Defensively, Thule could serve as a base for intercepting bomber attacks along the northeastern approaches to Canada and the US.

A board of Air Force officers headed by Gordon P. Saville made a recommendation to pursue a base at Thule in November 1950. It was subsequently supported by the Joint Chiefs of Staff and approved by President Truman. To replace the agreement entered into during World War II between the US and Denmark, a new agreement with respect to Greenland was ratified on 27 April 1951 (effective on 8 June 1951). At the request of NATO, the agreement became a part of the NATO defense program. The pact specified that the two nations would arrange for the use of facilities in Greenland by NATO forces in defense of the NATO area known as the Greenland Defense Area.

Thule Air Base was constructed in secret under the code name Operation Blue Jay, but the project was made public in September 1952. …

Thule became an Air Force Space Command base in 1982. Today Thule is home to the 821st Air Base Group, which exercises air base support responsibilities within the Thule Defense Area. …

In 2020, Thule Air Base was formally transferred to the United States Space Force. On 6 April 2023, Thule was renamed Pituffik Space Base, reflecting its status as a Space Force base and the native name for the region. (Pituffik Space Base. Wikipedia, accessed 01/08/25)

So, the US has long had a military presence in Greenland. In theory, it could probably declare that Greenland is a US territory. But that would seem to require Congressional approval as the U.S. Constitution grants Congress the power to “dispose of and make all needful Rules and Regulations respecting the Territory or other Property belonging to the United States” (Article IV, Section 3)–and not just a declaration from its president.

If the US Congress did that now, Europe is not currently in a position to actually control Greenland militarily, but would likely bide its time and plan to take it back if Greenland was declared a US territory–which it would (cf. Daniel 11:39).

I suspect that the Danes and Greenlanders will try to make some type of concessions to the US, while they plan to work against US interests there.

Let’s look at the following which is in our free online book Lost Tribes and Prophecies: What will happen to Australia, the British Isles, Canada, Europe, New Zealand and the United States of America?:

The U.S.A., itself, has repeatedly shown the Europeans that it does not trust them, yet scripture suggests it sometimes will trust them too much. According to the Bible, the time will come when the U.S.A. will find that continental Europe will be an enemy (cf. Isaiah 10:5-11) and not an ally (Ezekiel 23:4,9-10). The Bible warns:

2 All her friends have dealt treacherously with her; They have become her enemies. (Lamentations 1:2)

Europe will cooperate with the U.S.A. as long as it feels the relationship is beneficial, and then (as prophecy foretells) one day turn totally against the U.S.A.

The Bible teaches about a great power who will be destroyed by its friends, who become enemies (Lamentations 1:1-2).

Many in the Trump-Vance Administration have made comments against the USA’s European allies.

This will not end well for the USA (cf. Daniel 11:39; Isaiah 10:5-11).

Ultimately, Greenland could end up playing a role against the US.

US Central Intelligence had psychic attempt to locate the Ark of the Covenant

The CIA’s Mysterious Remote Viewing Experiment: Searching for the Ark of the Covenant

March 28, 2025

In the shadowy world of Cold War-era intelligence, the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) pursued investigations that often blurred the lines between scientific inquiry and supernatural exploration. A recently resurfaced declassified document reveals one such extraordinary endeavor: a remote viewing session attempting to locate the legendary Ark of the Covenant.

The Remote Viewing Protocol

Remote viewing, a psychic technique involving extrasensory perception (ESP), was a serious area of investigation for the intelligence community. On December 5, 1988, an unnamed remote viewer—identified simply as “Remote Viewer #32″—was tasked with investigating a mysterious target, unaware of its true nature. …

The remote viewer’s description was remarkably detailed and evocative. They reported a secret Middle Eastern location housing a unique container constructed of wood, gold, and silver—reminiscent of a coffin and adorned with seraphim. The vision included:

  • Mosque domes in the surrounding landscape
  • Arabic-speaking men dressed in white
  • An underground location that was dark and wet
  • A container with another container inside

Intriguingly, the viewer claimed the artifact was “protected by four seraphim” or “entities” and could only be opened at a predetermined time. They warned that unauthorized attempts to access the container would result in destruction by its mysterious guardians through “a power unknown to us.” …

Moskoff said. “Jewish sources maintain that the ark is under the Temple Mount, as my book explains. It’s a theory, of course, since it has not been investigated. But all of the facts that I write are biblical and from the Talmud and Midrash. I gather the facts from the actual sources and that’s the best way to do it.

“While it is encouraging, I would take the CIA report with a grain of salt.”

Rabbi Harry Moskoff is an investigative archaeologist, Bible scholar, and art expert whose book The Ark Report chronicles his findings concerning the possible locations of the Ark of the Covenant. He generally reacted positively to the CIA report but expressed several criticisms to Israel365 News.

Moskoff noted that Jewish sources describe a hiding place under the location of the Holy of Holies on the Temple Mount, slightly to the southwest underneath the Dome of the Rock. Fear of a Muslim reaction has prevented the Israeli government from carrying out any archaeological excavations at Judaism’s holiest site.

“It is reassuring that interest in the Ark is growing, as we are approaching the time of the Third Temple when this will be relevant. There’s no question about it. When you look at the Middle East, that’s happening now in Israel. So the timing of the report’s release is significant, even though the ark has been there for 2700 years and it hasn’t moved. The CIA actually describes the hiding place as dark caves.

‘But there are some things in the CIA report that aren’t completely correct. They described the presence of silver. But there’s no silver in the Ark of the Covenant. There’s only gold and wood. The report describes several ‘seraphim’, but there are only two angels, cherubim, as it says in the Torah.”…

“I would like to see more on those classified documents, for sure. That would be very interesting and hopefully we’ll hear more about it, I’m sure.” …

While the CIA’s remote viewing session offers a tantalizing glimpse into unconventional intelligence methods, it ultimately remains a speculative exercise. The document serves more as a testament to the Cold War era’s willingness to explore unconventional intelligence gathering techniques than as evidence of the Ark’s location. https://israel365news.com/407495/the-cias-mysterious-remote-viewing-expedition-searching-for-the-ark-of-the-covenant/ 

It is interesting that the CIA tried to look for the Ark of the Covenant. And it is possible that a demon could tell a psychic where it is. But the desription of having four, instead of two cherubim, would point to the either the psychic not seeing the Ark of the Covenant or the psychic not properly describing it–though the location is consistent with what certain Jews believe.

As far as what some Jews believe, last Spring, Michael Snyder posted the following:

May 7, 2024

There is a lot of speculation that historic events that people have been anticipating for more than 2,000 years are about to happen in our time. …

When the discovery of the Ark of the Covenant is finally announced, it will be the biggest archaeological bombshell in all of human history.

On the official website of the Temple Institute, they publicly acknowledge that they know exactly where it is located

While some claim to have evidence that the ark is in Ethiopia, and of course, moviegoers were treated to a fanciful version of the story in “Raiders of the Lost Ark,” in reality, the expression “lost” ark is not an accurate description for the Jewish people’s point of view – because we have always known exactly where it is. So the Ark is “Hidden,” and hidden quite well, but it is not lost.

Tradition records that even as King Solomon built the First Temple, he already knew, through Divine inspiration, that eventually it would be destroyed. Thus Solomon, the wisest of all men, oversaw the construction of a vast system of labyrinths, mazes, chambers and corridors underneath the Temple Mount complex. He commanded that a special place be built in the bowels of the earth, where the sacred vessels of the Temple could be hidden in case of approaching danger. Midrashic tradition teaches that King Josiah of Israel, who lived about forty years before the destruction of the First Temple, commanded the Levites to hide the Ark, together with the original menorah and several other items*, in this secret hiding place which Solomon had prepared.

This location is recorded in our sources, and today, there are those who know exactly where this chamber is. And we know that the ark is still there, undisturbed, and waiting for the day when it will be revealed. An attempt was made some few years ago to excavate towards the direction of this chamber. This resulted in widespread Moslem unrest and rioting. They stand a great deal to lose if the Ark is revealed – for it will prove to the whole world that there really was a Holy Temple, and thus, that the Jews really do have a claim to the Temple Mount. (The official position of the Islamic Wakf, the body that governs over the Temple Mount, is that there never was a Holy Temple, and that the Jews have no rights whatsoever to the place).

When the Ark is revealed to the whole world, it will completely shock the entire planet. … And when it is finally revealed to the world, everything will change. http://endoftheamericandream.com/a-red-heifer-sacrifice-is-coming-but-the-discovery-of-the-ark-of-the-covenant-will-be-even-more-important/

Notice also the following from last Spring:

May 4, 2024

An unbelievable rumor says treasures from [Roman Emperor] Titus’ attack on Jerusalem are now hidden in secret vaults at the Vatican.

There are stories about Israeli officials being told secrets from Catholic leaders.

It’s hard to believe without proof.

Yet, the papal palace shields very old, buried secrets. https://allisrael.com/watchthe-ark-of-the-covenant-at-the-vatican

While it is not impossible to think that the Vatican could have the Ark of the Covenant, that is doubtful for many reasons, including a Roman Catholic private prophecy:

Bl. Dionysus of Luetzenberg…prophecies:

After the discovery of the Ark of the Covenant, Enoch and Elias will restore the Holy Sacrament of the Altar; Because of the fact that the Ark of the Covenant will be in the possession of the two holy prophets and not in Antichrist’s hands, the Jews will recognize that Jesus is the true Messias …”

( Luetzenberg, Antichristus Chapter 29 as cited in Birch D.A. Trial, Tribulation & Triumph. Queenship Publishing, Goleta (CA), 1996, p. 509)

If the above is claiming that Enoch and Elijah are the ones in possession of the Ark, then the Vatican would not have it. On the other hand, this could possibly be interpreted that the Vatican will give it to Enoch and Elijah. Yet, since Enoch and Elijah will not come to the earth until after the first resurrection, despite many claiming they will be the two witnesses (see als0 Who Are The Two Witnesses?), they will not possess the Ark and restore the Roman Catholic “Sacrament of the Altar.”

One concern that I have had is that if the Ark of the Covenant is found, this could possibly get more of the Jews to support the ecumenical end-time religion that will call itself ‘Catholic.’ This would be consistent with biblical (Revelation 13:4,8; 2 Thessalonians 2:9-12) and Greco-Roman Catholic prophecies.

As far as it possibly being in Jerusalem, in its newsletter of Elul 5, 5781/August 13, 2021, the Temple Institute had the following photo and a link to the following:


(Photo in Temple Mount newsletter)

DOES THIS MARK THE SPOT OF THE ARK OF THE COVENANT?

The square structure seen in the middle of the photo from the Temple Mount is a cap closing off an open passage which leads to a large underground chamber, which was excavated in Temple times. It was forty years today (Elul 4) that Rabbi Yehudah Getz, who for 27 years was the Rabbi of the Western Wall, attempted with the assistance of a number of his students and others, to break through an underground wall which sealed off the chamber in the hope of finding there the Ark of the Covenant. Ancient Jewish tradition maintains that the Ark was hidden away in a specially prepared subterranean chamber by King Josiah in order to keep it safe from the approaching Babylonian army.08/12/21 https://www.facebook.com/templeinstitute/photos/a.86889944968/10151591160214969

Now the Bible is clear that the Ark of the Covenant will be in heaven:

19 Then the temple of God was opened in heaven, and the ark of His covenant was seen in His temple. And there were lightnings, noises, thunderings, an earthquake, and great hail. (Revelation 11:19)

It has been suggested that the physical ark of the covenant that the children of Israel had was patterned on one in heaven, thus it could still be on earth.

As mentioned in my free e-book Islamic and Biblical Prophecies for the 21st Century, some believe Muslims believe that the Imam Mahdi (a figure that resembles the prophesied King of the South of Daniel 11) will find the Ark of the Covenant (in Antioch) and that will be a sign he is the Imam Mahdi (The Secret History of the Ark of the Covenant: Hemes, Hagar and the Bloodline of Muhammadﷺ. Presentation by Sayyid Ahmed Amiruddin at the 2013 Symposium put on by the McMaster Association of Religious Studies, February 7, 2013. This belief was referenced at the symposium to come from al-Hawi li’l Fatawa, II, 82).

Since both Islamic and Roman Catholic prophecies suggest that it will be found, it is possible that some of them will point to the Ark in Ethiopia (some believe Ethiopia has the original Ark, while others believe that it has an early copy) or one in Jerusalem (or elsewhere) as proof that their prophecies are to be fulfilled. Or perhaps to a different location in the future, like Ireland or outside of Jerusalem in Israel.

Or Roman Catholics may claim that if the Ark of the Covenant has not been found, that some will claim that this is additional proof that the real two witnesses are not God’s two witnesses. Notice that the Roman Catholics want to place their practices on it (by Holy Sacrament, they seem to mean their Eucharistic practices; here is an article about their origins: Marcus, the Marcosians, & Mithraism: Developers of the Eucharist?). These are the same Roman Catholics that also keep trying to gain control of the Church of God on Jerusalem’s Western Hill.

Others say that Zion was really on the eastern side of Jerusalem, and thus, that may be where the Ark could be or end up.

Related to Zion, a psalmist wrote:

8 Arise, O Lord, to Your resting place, You and the ark of Your strength. 9 Let Your priests be clothed with righteousness, And let Your saints shout for joy. 10 For Your servant David’s sake, Do not turn away the face of Your Anointed. 11 The Lord has sworn in truth to David; He will not turn from it: “I will set upon your throne the fruit of your body. 12 If your sons will keep My covenant And My testimony which I shall teach them, Their sons also shall sit upon your throne forevermore.” 13 For the Lord has chosen Zion; He has desired it for His dwelling place: 14 “This is My resting place forever; Here I will dwell, for I have desired it. 15 I will abundantly bless her provision; I will satisfy her poor with bread. 16 I will also clothe her priests with salvation, And her saints shall shout aloud for joy. 17 There I will make the horn of David grow;I will prepare a lamp for My Anointed. 18 His enemies I will clothe with shame, But upon Himself His crown shall flourish.” (Psalm 132:8-18)

While Solomon wanted it to be in the temple he built to house the ark forever, God had David write that Zion was the chosen location.

Anyway, it remains my view that there is a chance that we will see the Ark or we will see a strong claim that someone has located the Ark within the next decade or so.

Related to reporting about the Ark, we in the Continuing Church of God put out the following video:

14:28

Where is the Ark of the Covenant?

Protestant writer Michael Snyder says that the Ark of the Covenant from the Bible is about to be find and that he knows exactly where it is. The Temple Institute believes it will be found soon and that it knows where it is. Why, supposedly, has no one uncovered it? Is Daniel 9:27 proof that the Ark of the Covenant is about to be found? What about Vendyl Jones? Is this Ark in Jerusalem in a cave or passage under what is called the Temple Mount? Does the Bible state that Jeremiah the prophet hid it just before the Babylonians took over? What about the Hill of Tara or Cairn T in Ireland? Does a comparison of a 1710 document and scriptures in 2 Chronicles 35:1-3 related to King Josiah eliminate the common view about a possible Ethiopia location? Do Muslim and Roman Catholic prophecies point to it being found? Are there any scriptures that support rabbi Avraham Goldstein’s contention that it is under or in Mt. Zion? How might the Continuing Church of God be involved? Any connection to a dream from someone in New Zealand? Does the Book of Revelation show the Ark of the Covenant being in heaven? Could there be an actual physical Ark that can be found? Dr. Thiel and Steve Dupuie discuss these matters.

Here is a link to our video: Where is the Ark of the Covenant?

Whether or not the CIA or the Temple Institute know the location of the the Ark, developments related to the Ark of the Covenant may well have prophetic ramifications.

Some items of possibly related interest may include:

Earthquakes rock Myanmar and Thailand

Earthquakes have hit Myanmar and also impacted Thailand:

Powerful quake in Southeast Asia kills several, 81 trapped in Bangkok building rubble

March 28, 2025

A powerful earthquake centred in Myanmar rocked Southeast Asia on Friday, killing several people and causing extensive damage, with rescuers in Bangkok searching for 81 people in the rubble of a collapsed building. At least three people were killed in the town of Taungoo in Myanmar when a mosque partially collapsed, witnesses said, while local media reported that at least two people died and 20 were injured after a hotel collapsed in Aung Ban. In Thailand, the defence minister said rescuers were searching for 81 people trapped in the rubble of a skyscraper that was under construction and collapsed into a pile of rubble.

Bangkok Governor Chadchart Sittipunt said there had been three deaths at the building site. He warned of possible aftershocks but urged people to be calm and said the situation was largely under control.

The United States Geological Survey (USGS) said the quake, which struck at lunchtime, was of 7.7. https://www.reuters.com/world/asia-pacific/strong-earthquake-central-myanmar-panic-bangkok-2025-03-28/

28 March 2025

The US Geological Survey (USGS) said the earthquake was shallow with a depth of 10 kilometres. Its epicentre was near the Burmese city of Sagaing, close to Mandalay.

A second quake, with a magnitude of 6.4, shook the area 12 minutes later. https://www.euronews.com/2025/03/28/strong-77-earthquake-strikes-myanmar-and-neighbouring-thailand

Several of us in the Continuing Church of God were in Thailand last month. Those affected by these quakes are in my prayers.

Taiwan & Tibet were also hit by large earthquakes earlier this year.

We all should realize that Jesus predicted earthquakes and troubles:

8 … And there will be earthquakes in various places, and there will be…troubles. These are the beginnings of sorrows. (Mark 13:8)

33 Take heed, watch and pray; for you do not know when the time is. 34 It is like a man going to a far country, who left his house and gave authority to his servants, and to each his work, and commanded the doorkeeper to watch. 35 Watch therefore, for you do not know when the master of the house is coming — in the evening, at midnight, at the crowing of the rooster, or in the morning — 36 lest, coming suddenly, he find you sleeping. 37 And what I say to you, I say to all: Watch!” (Mark 13:33-37)

Notice that Jesus listed earthquakes as one of the signs that precede the Great Tribulation (Matthew 24:4-21; see also When Will the Great Tribulation Begin?) and told His followers to watch.

Regular readers of this COGwriter Church of God News page may recall that earthquakes were number 5 of my list of 25 items to prophetically watch in 2025:

5. Earthquakes and Volcanoes

Jesus taught:

7 For nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom. And there will be famines, pestilences, and earthquakes in various places. (Matthew 24:7).

Earthquakes could trigger supervolcanoes (see Massive spike in Yellowstone earthquakes: Does Yellowstone pose a major risk? and watch Are supervolcanoes a real threat?) and cause other troubles (Mark 13:8).

Then there are also smaller volcanoes, such as Mt. Rainer, which are believed to have massive potential for disasters themselves.

Many moderns, ‘experts’ and otherwise, do not think such disasters could happen–at least not in their lifetimes.

But they are wrong. Notice what the Apostle Peter was inspired to write:

1 Beloved, I now write to you this second epistle (in both of which I stir up your pure minds by way of reminder), 2 that you may be mindful of the words which were spoken before by the holy prophets, and of the commandment of us, the apostles of the Lord and Savior, 3 knowing this first: that scoffers will come in the last days, walking according to their own lusts, 4 and saying, “Where is the promise of His coming? For since the fathers fell asleep, all things continue as they were from the beginning of creation.” 5 For this they willfully forget: that by the word of God the heavens were of old, and the earth standing out of water and in the water, 6 by which the world that then existed perished, being flooded with water. 7 But the heavens and the earth which are now preserved by the same word, are reserved for fire until the day of judgment and perdition of ungodly men.

8 But, beloved, do not forget this one thing, that with the Lord one day is as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day. 9 The Lord is not slack concerning His promise, as some count slackness, but is longsuffering toward us, not willing that any should perish but that all should come to repentance.

10 But the day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night, in which the heavens will pass away with a great noise, and the elements will melt with fervent heat; both the earth and the works that are in it will be burned up. 11 Therefore, since all these things will be dissolved, what manner of persons ought you to be in holy conduct and godliness, 12 looking for and hastening the coming of the day of God, because of which the heavens will be dissolved, being on fire, and the elements will melt with fervent heat? 13 Nevertheless we, according to His promise, look for new heavens and a new earth in which righteousness dwells.

14 Therefore, beloved, looking forward to these things, be diligent to be found by Him in peace, without spot and blameless; 15 and consider that the longsuffering of our Lord is salvation — as also our beloved brother Paul, according to the wisdom given to him, has written to you, 16 as also in all his epistles, speaking in them of these things, in which are some things hard to understand, which untaught and unstable people twist to their own destruction, as they do also the rest of the Scriptures.

17 You therefore, beloved, since you know this beforehand, beware lest you also fall from your own steadfastness, being led away with the error of the wicked; 18 but grow in the grace and knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.

To Him be the glory both now and forever. Amen. (2 Peter 3:1-18).

Things will not remain as they have.  …

Ultimately, a massive earthquake will hit:

18 And there were noises and thunderings and lightnings; and there was a great earthquake, such a mighty and great earthquake as had not occurred since men were on the earth. 19 Now the great city was divided into three parts, and the cities of the nations fell. And great Babylon was remembered before God, to give her the cup of the wine of the fierceness of His wrath. 20 Then every island fled away, and the mountains were not found. (Revelation 16:18-20)

Notice that the above earthquake is so big that the cities of the nations will fall. Mountains will be leveled and islands “fled away” (more on this can be found in the article Islands and Bible Prophecy). This seems to be the biggest earthquake that will ever hit the planet with humans on it. Despite the view of ‘preterists’ that this already happened (see The Dangerous Rise of Preterists), that is nonsense.

The earthquake of Revelation 16 will be bigger than what the usual “experts” have believed was possible. It will change the planet and humble parts of humanity.

It should be noted since that apparently biggest of all earthquakes seems to take place near the end of the Day of the Lord, it cannot happen prior to 2027 (for more on why as well as dates, please see the articles When Can the Great Tribulation Begin? and Could God Have a 6,000 Year Plan? What Year Could the 6,000 Years End?).

While that one will not occur in 2025, other significant ones are in the future.

Expect serious earthquakes in different places, in 2025.

Now, let’s look at something else that Jesus said:

11 And there will be great earthquakes in various places, and famines and pestilences; and there will be fearful sights and great signs from heaven… 25 And there will be signs in the sun, in the moon, and in the stars; and on the earth distress of nations, with perplexity, the sea and the waves roaring; 26 men’s hearts failing them from fear and the expectation of those things which are coming on the earth, for the powers of heaven will be shaken. 27 Then they will see the Son of Man coming in a cloud with power and great glory (Luke 21:11, 25-27).

Essentially, the Bible shows that there will be the greatest earthquake of all time that will level mountains, and this will be followed by the sea and the waves roaring. And if most of the frozen waters have melted by then, the height of these roaring waves apparently will be enough to destroy most who live on islands. As well as affect those who live in coastal regions and islands.

(That will be bigger than “the big one” many worry will hit California.)

According to the Bible, various serious earthquake prophesies are certain to come to pass (Revelation 22:6).

Even those who do not live near water or mountains will be affected.

Actually, it will take the intervention of God to ensure that all do not die from this and other end time events as Jesus also said:

21 For then there will be great tribulation, such as has not been since the beginning of the world until this time, no, nor ever shall be. 22 And unless those days were shortened, no flesh would be saved; but for the elect’s sake those days will be shortened.  (Matthew 24:21-22)

As far as what you should do, Jesus said:

34 “But take heed to yourselves, lest your hearts be weighed down with carousing, drunkenness, and cares of this life, and that Day come on you unexpectedly. 35 For it will come as a snare on all those who dwell on the face of the whole earth.
36 Watch therefore, and pray always that you may be counted worthy to escape all these things that will come to pass, and to stand before the Son of Man.” (Luke 21:34-36)
Watch, pray, and change your life so that you may be counted worthy to escape all these things that will come to pass, and to stand before the Son of Man.

Pray, change, and be ready.

Earthquakes and other events can happen suddenly and change your environment quickly.

DOGE efforts bringing BRICS nations closer together

Thursday, March 27th, 2025

COGwriter

There have been many unintended consequences of the Donald Trump presidency (i.e. see list in the post HD: God’s Golden Age Will Not Come About Through Efforts Made In Washington D.C.

Consider a cost-cutting one related to the Department Of Government Efficiency (DOGE) that US Secretary of State Marc Rubio has endorsed:

Now notice an unintended consequence:

BRICS ties stronger after US aid cuts – South African politician

27 March 2025

The withdrawal of US foreign aid to South Africa is a “wake-up call” and an opportunity for transformation, according to South African politician and youth activist Khalid Muhammad.

In an interview with RT, the African National Congress (ANC) party’s Western Cape spokesperson stated that South Africa “needs to start working much more closely, particularly at the level of the economics, with our BRICS partners.”

“Russia, for example, becomes a key role player in this regard. Also, China becomes very, very important.  Brazil, India, even Iran, markets that the Americans try to keep us away from, we must embrace those particular markets,” Muhammad added.

He echoed South African President Cyril Ramaphosa’s recent comments, agreeing that the country must accelerate efforts to build self-reliant systems, particularly in key sectors such as health and social development.

The administration of US President Donald Trump announced in February that it was terminating 90% of US Agency for International Development (USAID) contracts. The administration cited a failure to advance America’s national interests, and effectively halted $60 billion in humanitarian spending worldwide. https://www.rt.com/africa/614846-us-aid-exit-spurs-brics-ties/

The BRICS alliance originally consisted of Brazil, Russia, India, China and South Africa (hence BRICS). This alliance has been growing.

BRICS is an intergovernmental organization now consisting of ten countries—Brazil, Russia, India, China, South Africa, Egypt, Ethiopia, Indonesia, Iran and the United Arab Emirates. …

Some in the West consider BRICS institutions an alternative to institutions such as those led by nations of the G7 bloc, which are among the world’s leading economies.[12] Others describe the grouping as an incoherent joining of countries around increasing anti-Western and anti-American objectives.[14] Together BRICS has implemented competing initiatives such as the New Development Bank, the BRICS Contingent Reserve Arrangement, BRICS PAY, the BRICS Joint Statistical Publication[15] and the BRICS basket reserve currency. (BRICS. Wikipedia, accessed 03/27/25)

More are considering to become part of this alliance.

 Saudi Arabia did not join BRICS at the start of 2024 as had been planned, and it announced … that it was still considering the matter …

organizers touted the expansion as part of a plan to build a competing multipolar world order that uses Global South countries to challenge and compete against the western-dominated world order.[71] China Daily used the expansion to claim that more developing countries were interested in joining BRICS.[72]

On 24 October 2024, an additional 13 countries, namely Algeria, Belarus, Bolivia, Cuba, Indonesia, Kazakhstan, Malaysia, Nigeria, Thailand, Turkey, Uganda, Uzbekistan and Vietnam, were invited to participate as “partner countries”. … On 6 January 2025, Indonesia joined BRICS officially as a full member. (BRICS. Wikipedia, accessed 03/27/25)

The BRICS nations see the USA debt risk and despise USA sanction policies. They clearly want to topple the dominance of the US and its dollar (as do the Europeans, which is part of why they came out with the Euro).

Related to BRICS and the USA dollar, notice the following which is in my book Lost Tribes and Prophecies: What will happen to Australia, the British Isles, Canada, Europe, New Zealand and the United States of America?:

Those in Iran and some of the Arab lands, along with nations such as Brazil, China, and India have discussed plans for the removal of the dominance of the U.S.A. in global trade as well. The former (again current) President of Brazil, Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva, even claimed that eliminating the U.S. dollar’s reserve currency status was one of the reasons that the BRICS alliance (Brazil, Russia, India, China, and South Africa) was formed in the first place. [i] Others have  noted that bypassing the USA dollar is still an object of BRICS—and officially BRICS nations “are currently working on setting up a new global reserve currency,”[ii] which may have gold-backing.[iii] The expansion of BRICS (which is in progress) may ultimately even hurt Australian trade as well as “severely weaken primacy of the US Dollar as an international currency.”[iv]

The Bible clearly warns against cheapening the money supply and encourages having money hold its value (Proverbs 25:4 Isaiah 1:25, Ezekiel 22:18-22). Debt is also warned against (Habakkuk 2:6-8). Yet policies enacted under the Obama, Trump, and Biden Administrations, following certain other administrations, have ignored these warnings.

Notice also something from my book Unintended Consequences and Donald Trump’s Presidency: Is Donald Trump Fulfilling Biblical, Islamic, Greco-Roman Catholic, Buddhist, and other America-Related Prophecies?:

Notice what Donald Trump stated in late 2024:

The idea that the BRICS countries are trying to move away from the dollar while we stand by and watch is over,” Trump wrote in a Nov. 30 Truth Social post. …

“We require a commitment from these countries that they will neither create a new BRICS currency, nor back any other currency to replace the mighty U.S. dollar or, they will face 100 percent tariffs, and should expect to say goodbye to selling into the wonderful U.S. economy,” the president-elect recently wrote.

In October, speaking at the Economic Club of Chicago with Bloomberg, Trump warned … “We have to have that. We cannot lose it,” Trump said. “You’ll go to Third World status in this country because you take a look at the way things are running.” (Durden T. De-Dollarization Effort In Spotlight After Trump’s Tariff Threat On BRICS. ZeroHedge, December 3, 2024)

Yes, the impact of the USA dollar losing its reserve status would be horrible–and even worse than Donald Trump asserted. And things like 100% tariffs are inflationary.

The BRICS+ nations, which compose nearly half the population of the world, still want to bypass the US dollar.

US President-elect Donald Trump has threatened 100 percent tariffs on BRICS nations if they replace the dollar in international trade.

However, Brazil has indicated that it aims to boost the effort during its presidency of BRICS. President Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva’s government has said its objective is the “development of means of payment” to facilitate trade between member countries.[i]

Furthermore, some suspect that more countries in BRICS+ may destroy the ‘petrodollar’ system that supports the dollar.[ii]

The USA dollar will ultimately crash and be worthless. That “pride” of American power will be broken (cf. Leviticus 26:19).

[i] Indonesia joins BRICS group of emerging economies. Aljazeera, January 7, 2025

[ii] Dourian K. Are the BRICS gearing up to challenge the petrodollar? Middle East Economy, October 10, 2024

One day the US dollar will be toppled–but that will not fully happen in 2025. But let me add that the Bible teaches that a coming European power will accumulate gold too (cf. Daniel 11:38,43; see also The Plain Truth About Gold in Prophecy. How Should a Christian View Gold?).

Based upon several biblical prophecies, I have long written that the Asians and Europeans will cooperate, for a time, and eliminate the USA and its Anglo-Saxon-Celtic descended allies. They will divide their lands among them per Daniel 11:39, and many of the survivors will be made slaves (for more details check out the article Will the Anglo-Saxon Nations be Divided and Have People Taken as Slaves?).

It should be added that part of the purpose of the Euro was to bypass the USA dollar for international trade. And, that has happened completely within the Eurozone block in the EU.

Steps towards pushing away the Anglo-American dominance of the world for the past couple of centuries is happening.

Donald Trump has made statements and endorsed policies that are impacting the current world order–many of which will end up harmful to the USA.

Although BRICS will not dominate the world economically like the coming European Beast power will, the BRICS nations and their actions will have major impacts on the world.

Related to BRICS and the USA dollar, we put together the following video:

14:31

BRICS Push Aside USA Dollar

The BRICS nations (Brazil, Russia, India, China, and South Africa) have as one of their founding goals, to eliminate the need to use USA dollars in cross-border trade. Six additional nations have been invited to join BRICS in 2024, and India reports that six more are also being looked at. The BRICS nations have already began to drop the USA dollar for some cross-border trading with Russia and China indicating that they had almost done so completely in late 2023. What will happen to the economy and value of the USA dollar if more and more nations stop using it as a primary reserve and trading currency? What about hyperinflation? Does the Bible prophesy destruction for a highly indented nation in the end time? Is the USA the most indebted nation of all time? What about the intent and use of the Euro? Will Europe and Asia cooperate to eliminate the USA and its British-descended allies?

Here is a link to our video: BRICS Push Aside USA Dollar.

A lot is happening.

The USA dollar will no longer remain “king.” This will greatly impact the economy of the USA.

Donald Trump to impose 25% auto import tariffs and threatens EU and Canada if they retaliate to cause harm

Thursday, March 27th, 2025


COGwriter

Donald Trump announced automobile tariffs and many are not pleased:

Trump to impose 25% tariff on all imported vehicles and foreign-made auto parts

Foreign governments and carmakers criticized the new import taxes, which drew threats of retaliation and pushed down auto stocks around the world.

March 27, 2025

President Donald Trump and the White House announced a series of sweeping tariffs on foreign-made cars and auto parts Wednesday, a prelude to the April 2 “Liberation Day” duties that are expected to hit a wide variety of goods made by many of the largest U.S. trading partners. …

However, companies that import vehicles under the United States-Mexico-Canada Agreement (USMCA) will get special consideration until the Commerce Department establishes a process for levying the 25% duties, the White House said. …

Foreign leaders and automakers also criticized the tariffs. Japanese Prime Minister Shigeru Ishiba said his government was “putting all options on the table” to respond, while the German Association of the Automotive Industry said the tariffs sent “a disastrous signal for free, rules-based trade.”

Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney called the tariffs a “direct attack” on Canadian workers and said he was considering additional retaliatory tariffs. European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen said she deeply regretted the U.S. decision … https://www.nbcnews.com/business/autos/trump-auto-tariffs-which-companies-how-much-when-what-to-know-rcna198223

Germany urges strong response to Trump’s auto tariffs

27 March 2025

Germany‘s Vice Chancellor and Economy Minister Robert Habeck on Thursday urged a strong European Union (EU) reaction to the US import tariffs on cars declared by President Donald Trump.

“It must be clear that we will not give in to the US. We need to show strength and self-confidence,” Habeck said. …

Habeck it would be “bad news for he US,” along with German carmakers, the German economy, and the EU.

European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen described Trump’s tariffs as “bad for businesses, worse for consumers.”

Elsewhere in Europe, France’s Finance Minister Eric Lombard said the “only solution” would be for the EU to raise tariffs on US products in response.

Meanwhile, the UK said it was not planning any retaliatory measures “at the moment.”

“We are looking to secure a better trading relationship with the United States. I recognize that the week ahead is important. There are further talks going on today, so let’s see where we get to in the next few days,” said Rachel Reeves, Britain’s finance minister. https://www.dw.com/en/germany-urges-strong-response-to-trumps-auto-tariffs/a-72052735

Notice that the EU wants strong retaliatory measures, but the UK is taking a less negative stance.

As far as trade with the UK and Europe go, notice something from my latest book available at Amazon Kindle: Unintended Consequences and Donald Trump’s Presidency: Is Donald Trump Fulfilling Biblical, Islamic, Greco-Roman Catholic, Buddhist, and other America-Related Prophecies? as well as Amazon print Unintended Consequences and Donald Trump’s Presidency: Is Donald Trump Fulfilling Biblical, Islamic, Greco-Roman Catholic, Buddhist, and other America-Related Prophecies?:

In 2024, it was reported that Donald Trump believes that the USA has a special relationship with the UK and wants to give the British a more favorable trade agreement than he wants to give those in the European Union. (p. 20)

Trade

Historically, Donald Trump has called for “fair trade” and indicated that various nations, including several in Asia, are not engaged in fair trade, so he has proposed high tariffs.[i]

Donald Trump has called tariffs, “the most beautiful word in the dictionary” and even proposed massive tariffs (up to 2000%) on Mexico if it will not do what he wants.[ii] He has basically also proposed a minimum of 10% tariffs on goods from much of the rest of the world.

Some believe that Donald Trump’s positions on trade will lead to a global trade war.[iii] Europe has said it will hit back against Donald Trump’s tariff policies.[iv] It is my position that trade disputes will be a factor in Europe taking military action against the USA one day.

One of the unintended consequences of Donald Trump’s threats of tariffs and other trade matters is that it is motivating nations he has threatened to look to trade more with each other. … (pp. 51-52)

The USA itself, as well as Donald Trump specifically, have repeatedly shown the Europeans that it does not trust them, yet it sometimes will trust them too much. According to the Bible, the time will come when the USA will find that continental Europe will be an enemy (cf. Isaiah 10:5-11) and not an ally (Ezekiel 23:4,9-10; Lamentations 1:1-2). (p. 58)

  • Pushing tariffs and other policies that foreign nations do not like is contributing to other nations looking to bypass the USA dollar, as well as trade more with each other and less with the USA. This will further push various globalist’s moves forward without the USA. This is also helping set the stage for the coming European Babylonian Beast to dominate international trade. (p. 210)

Donald Trump made a retaliatory threat:

March 27, 2025

President Donald Trump said on Thursday that larger tariffs could be placed on the European Union and Canada if they both work together “to do economic harm to the USA.”

“If the European Union works with Canada in order to do economic harm to the USA, large scale tariffs, far larger than currently planned, will be placed on them both in order to protect the best friend that each of those two countries has ever had,” he said in a post on Truth Social. https://www.newsmax.com/world/globaltalk/trump-tariffs-eu/2025/03/27/id/1204533/

Now, the Wall Street Journal put out the following:

Trump’s Tariff War Forces Allies to Choose Resistance or Surrender

Canada and the EU have fought back, the U.K. and Mexico haven’t, and nobody knows which strategy will ultimately work

President Trump’s trade war is forcing America’s closest allies to choose between fighting back, or acquiescing. The trouble is, nobody has figured out which is the best way to get Trump to do what they want.

The European Union and Canada have led the charge against Trump’s tariffs, threatening their own duties on tens of billions of dollars on American goods … 03/25/25 https://www.wsj.com/economy/trade/tariff-war-retaliate-936dfd43

So, what will happen?

There will be tariffs and compromises in this trade war.

Let’s look at something else from my latest book available at Amazon Kindle: Unintended Consequences and Donald Trump’s Presidency: Is Donald Trump Fulfilling Biblical, Islamic, Greco-Roman Catholic, Buddhist, and other America-Related Prophecies? as well as Amazon print Unintended Consequences and Donald Trump’s Presidency: Is Donald Trump Fulfilling Biblical, Islamic, Greco-Roman Catholic, Buddhist, and other America-Related Prophecies?:

The USA will be attacked by “friends” consistent with the following:

1 How lonely sits the city
That was full of people!
How like a widow is she,
Who was great among the nations!

The princess among the provinces
Has become a slave!

2 She weeps bitterly in the night,
Her tears are on her cheeks;
Among all her lovers
She has none to comfort her.
All her friends have dealt treacherously with her;

They have become her enemies. cf. Lamentations 1:1-2).

Notice the one who was “great among the nations” will be conquered by friends, who will become enemies.

The USA was prophesied to be “great” in Genesis 48:19 and is considered by international sources to be great among the nations of the world today.

The USA is turning “friends” into enemies.

And while the Europeans will make nice sometimes, they are more and more upset with the USA and are taking military steps that the USA will one day regret (cf. Isaiah 10:5-11; Daniel 11:39).

Tariffs, retaliatory tariffs, and even more tariffs are being implemented. Is this all just happenstance? Are we yet in a trade war? What will Europe do? Has the Church of God been warning about trade disputes and a coming trade war for decades? What about the Continuing Church of God (CCOG)? What has been warned, what has been happening, and what will happen? Will trade disputes be a factor in World War III (WW3)? Dr. Thiel explains what has been taught and what to expect.
Brexit Happened: Now What? At 11:00 pm January 31, 2020, the United Kingdom formally left the European Union. Many celebrated, while many mourned. Nigel Farage stated, “This is the greatest moment in modern British history.” What will happen to the United Kingdom? Will the UK be involved in trade deals with the United States of America and the Europeans? Will the UK regret the BRitish Exit (Brexit) from the EU?What will happen with the European Union? Is Europe prophesied to have a great army and many ships? Does the Bible prophesy a reorganization of Europe? Does it prophesy that the Europeans will become a conquering military power? Is the United Kingdom prophesied to be conquered? How does the Bible name the British-descended peoples? Was the British Empire the largest in world history? Was Brexit predicted by Church of God leaders in 1970 and the early 1990s? Will the European Union be negatively affected financially by the departure of the UK? Will this turn out well for the UK or the Europeans? Dr. Thiel addresses these issues and more in this video.
Trade Wars: Are COG warnings coming to pass? Trade issues, tariffs, and talk of trade wars are in the news. Can trade wars lead to World War III like they did to World War II?

Do Germany and China hope to take advantage of trade frictions involving the Trump Administration and the Trans-Pacific Partnership agreement? What about Mexico and South America? Does the Bible teach that Europe will become a major trading power? Will the final European Babylonian trading power be destroyed? Dr. Thiel addresses these issues and more in this video.

European Union now urging disaster prepping with its brochure

Wednesday, March 26th, 2025


Cover of EU Preparedness Union Strategy brochure

COGwriter

The European Union wants its people to prepare for disaster:

Brussels ask EU citizens to put together a 72-hour emergency kit to face crises

26 March 2025

The emergency kit should include food, water, and copies of important identity documents, among other items.

The EU wants every member state to develop a 72-hour survival kit for citizens to face any new crisis that might emerge as part of its Preparedness Union Strategy which also calls for more stockpiling of essential supplies and for improved civilian-military cooperation.

The strategy unveiled on Wednesday by the European Commission includes a list of 30 concrete actions it says EU member states need to take to boost their preparedness against potential future crises ranging from natural disasters and industrial accidents to attacks by malicious actors in the cyber or military domains.

“In the EU we must think different, because the threats are different, we must think bigger because the threats are bigger too,” Hadja Lahbib, the Commissioner for humanitarian aid and crisis management, told reporters. …

The Commission’s plan aims to harmonise guidelines across the 27 member states in order to make sure that “everyone, at different levels have, to put it this way, a manual of what to do when the sirens go off,” said a senior EU official, speaking on condition of anonymity. …

Improving cooperation between civilian and military authorities in the event of a crisis is also identified as a key priority. The Commission said it will establish a civil-military preparedness framework with clear roles and responsibilities and has called for regular exercises to be carried out to test best practices. https://www.euronews.com/my-europe/2025/03/26/brussels-ask-eu-citizens-to-put-together-a-72-hour-emergency-kit-to-face-crises

Here is some of what the second page in the Preparedness Union Strategy brochure has:

Population Preparedness:
• Enhance risk and threat awareness by the population. …

Civil-Military Cooperation:
• Create a comprehensive civil-military preparedness framework.
• Facilitate dual-use planning and investment.
• Organize EU wide exercises for comprehensive preparedness.
• Revise the public procurement framework accessed 03/26/25 https://reliefweb.int/report/world/factsheet-eu-preparedness-union-strategy

Notice that there is a military component to this.

France, Sweden, Finland, Norway, and Denmark have already produced booklets to encourage their citizens to prepare.

Now, the European Union is trying to prepare its citizens for disasters, civil unrest and/or military conflict.

Civil unrest and/or civil war will erupt in Europe. Places such as France, Germany, Spain, Portugal, Italy, Austria, Greece, Sweden, and Eastern Europe (like Slovenia, Croatia, Moldova, and Bulgaria) have potential for this occurrence. In addition to Islamic protests and immigration-related issues, trade and austerity will also likely be factors in flaming protests and devastating riots.

That said, Bible prophecy shows that ultimately war will come to Europe. While having civilians make preparations will likely save some lives, Europe itself will be conquered (cf. Ezekiel 5:4; Jeremiah 50:41-42; Joel 2:1-11). Details related to that are in the free online book: Lost Tribes and Prophecies: What will happen to Australia, the British Isles, Canada, Europe, New Zealand and the United States of America?

Since biblical prophecies will come to pass, should Christians make any physical preparations for the sorrows, troubles, and tribulations that Jesus warned of in Matthew 24, Mark 13, and Luke 21?

Here are some scriptures that might provide some possible answers:

6 Go to the ant, you sluggard!
Consider her ways and be wise,
7 Which, having no captain,
Overseer or ruler,
8 Provides her supplies in the summer,
And gathers her food in the harvest.
9 How long will you slumber, O sluggard?
When will you rise from your sleep?
10 A little sleep, a little slumber,
A little folding of the hands to sleep —
11 So shall your poverty come on you like a prowler,
And your need like an armed man. (Proverbs 6:6-11).

15 “Laziness casts one into a deep sleep, And an idle person will suffer hunger” (Proverbs 19:15).

4 The lazy man will not plow because of winter; He will beg during harvest and have nothing. (Proverbs 20:4)

24 … they are exceedingly wise: 25 The ants are a people not strong, Yet they prepare their food in the summer; (Proverbs 30:24-25)

But won’t God provide?

3 “The LORD will not allow the righteous soul to famish” (Proverbs 10:3).

Yes, He will, but look at the next verses:

4 He who has a slack hand becomes poor, But the hand of the diligent makes rich. 5 He who gathers in the summer is a wise son; He who sleeps in harvest is a son of shame” (Proverbs 10:4-5).

So, the Bible speaks well of those who gather in the seasons when they can.

Notice also something from the New Testament:

10 For even when we were with you, we commanded you this: If anyone will not work, neither shall he eat. 11 For we hear that there are some who walk among you in a disorderly manner, not working at all, but are busybodies. 12 Now those who are such we command and exhort through our Lord Jesus Christ that they work in quietness and eat their own bread. (2 Thessalonians 3:10-12)

You are not just to sit around and expect others to take care of you.

In modern times, paperwork may be helpful as well. The EU preparation plan includes identity documents.

Notice something from the New Testament:

25 And as they bound him with thongs, Paul said to the centurion who stood by, “Is it lawful for you to scourge a man who is a Roman, and uncondemned?”

26 When the centurion heard that, he went and told the commander, saying, “Take care what you do, for this man is a Roman.”

27 Then the commander came and said to him, “Tell me, are you a Roman?”

He said, “Yes.”

28 The commander answered, “With a large sum I obtained this citizenship.”

And Paul said, “But I was born a citizen.”

29 Then immediately those who were about to examine him withdrew from him; and the commander was also afraid after he found out that he was a Roman, and because he had bound him. (Acts 22:25-29)

The centurion bought a citizenship, which he felt would help him. Paul was basically born a dual-citizen and was able to use that to his advantage. In modern times, having documentation of such things could be helpful for some.

Consider also the following scriptures:

22 A good man leaves an inheritance to his children’s children, But the wealth of the sinner is stored up for the righteous. (Proverbs 13:22)

3 “A prudent man forsees evil and hides himself, But the simple pass on and are punished” (Proverbs 22:3).

43 “But know this, that if the master of the house had known what hour the thief would come, he would have watched and not allowed his house to be broken into. 44 Therefore you also be ready, for the Son of Man is coming at an hour you do not expect. 45 Who then is a faithful and wise servant, whom his master made ruler over his household, to give them food in due season? 46 Blessed is that servant whom his master, when he comes, will find so doing” (Matthew 24:43-46).

12 “gather His wheat into the barn” (Matthew 3:12).

The Bible endorses saving and proper planning.

Thus, people who believe the Bible will take steps and not ignore what is happening today.

Anyway, it is wise to have some extra food, but in the Churches of God we do not teach that members should have vast amounts of it, to try, for example, to make it through the Great Tribulation–we need to strive to be Philadephian Christians so that we will receive the protection that Jesus promised from that “hour of trial” (Revelation 3:7-10).

Related to physical protection in this age during the time of the Great Tribulation, the Bible teaches that there will be two groups of Christians. One group will be protected and the other will not be:

14 But the woman was given two wings of a great eagle, that she might fly into the wilderness to her place, where she is nourished for a time and times and half a time, from the presence of the serpent. 15 So the serpent spewed water out of his mouth like a flood after the woman, that he might cause her to be carried away by the flood. 16 But the earth helped the woman, and the earth opened its mouth and swallowed up the flood which the dragon had spewed out of his mouth. 17 And the dragon was enraged with the woman, and he went to make war with the rest of her offspring, who keep the commandments of God and have the testimony of Jesus Christ. (Revelation 12:14-17)

Notice the group that is promised protection:

7 “And to the angel of the church in Philadelphia write,

‘These things says He who is holy, He who is true, “He who has the key of David, He who opens and no one shuts, and shuts and no one opens”: 8 “I know your works. See, I have set before you an open door, and no one can shut it; for you have a little strength, have kept My word, and have not denied My name. 9 Indeed I will make those of the synagogue of Satan, who say they are Jews and are not, but lie — indeed I will make them come and worship before your feet, and to know that I have loved you. 10 Because you have kept My command to persevere, I also will keep you from the hour of trial which shall come upon the whole world, to test those who dwell on the earth. (Revelation 3:7-10)

The above promise of protection was only made to the Philadelphian Christians, yet is was not made to the other churches of Revelation 2 & 3. NOT ALL CHRISTIANS WILL BE PROTECTED DURING THE COMING GREAT TRIBULATION.

Jesus said:

34 “But take heed to yourselves, lest your hearts be weighed down with carousing, drunkenness, and cares of this life, and that Day come on you unexpectedly. 35 For it will come as a snare on all those who dwell on the face of the whole earth. 36 Watch therefore, and pray always that you may be counted worthy to escape all these things that will come to pass, and to stand before the Son of Man.” (Luke 21:34-36)

Christians should watch world events and realize their biblical ramifications. They should pray to be accounted worthy to escape what will come to pass. This means that in these times that they need to strive to be a Philadelphian Christian.

HD: God’s Golden Age Will Not Come About Through Efforts Made In Washington D.C.

Wednesday, March 26th, 2025

 

COGwriter

Harbinger Daily posted the following:

However Positive, God’s Golden Age Will Not Come About Through Efforts Made In Washington D.C.

March 25, 2025

If you listen to conservative media—which I do, by the way, and appreciate much of it—we are entering a “golden age.” Those who understand the concept of the Millennial reign of Jesus Christ realize that it is the true golden age. But, that is not what the news analysts are referring to! …

The leftist cabal had been drowning in evil and when voted out of office, they received an appropriate smackdown. But they are by no means on permanent hold. They are licking their wounds. They are plotting and scheming and planning a comeback. …

So, Is God’s End-Time Agenda on Hold?

So, is this a respite? Maybe a reprieve? Has Satan’s agenda been put on hold? Is the rapture now on hold? Do you think that the globalists are going to relax and willingly turn their agenda over to President Donald Trump? Do you think that Klaus Schwab & Associates plan to take a four year hiatus and go quietly into the night? Do you think that Yuval Noah Harari will fade away because he acknowledged that a Trump victory would be the “end of the global order?”

To all of the above, a resounding no way! …

I appreciate similar thoughts by author and commentator Jonathan Brentner who states, “While it might be tempting to think there’s been a pause in the mad rush of events leading up to the start of the Tribulation period, the elite powerbrokers of our world remain busy. They are working behind the scenes to quickly set the stage for when they can openly enslave the world under their domain. … the stage-setting for the future oneworld government has not ceased or slowed down in any way.”

“In the Last Days, Evil Will Wax Worse and Worse”

Evil never takes a break. It never re-groups. It never gathers in a huddle to plot and scheme. It just keeps charging forward. It says in II Timothy 3:13 that “evil waxes worse and worse.” … God has given us a wonderful promise: … After that seven-year time period, we return to a golden age back on earth—the Millennium.

https://harbingersdaily.com/however-positive-gods-golden-age-will-not-come-about-through-efforts-made-in-washington-d-c/

Yes, the Millennial Kingdom of God will be a true ‘Golden Age.’

And the Harbinger Daily writer is correct that evil is not taking a break, even though the Trump-Vance Administration has taken steps against some evils.

It is good that Donald Trump took actions to confirm only two genders (see Trump, Putin, and Gender) and to try to prevent men from competing as “women” in women’s sports (see Donald Trump speaks to a divided US Congress). His Administration has also paused funding to the abortionist Planned Parenthood (https://www.newsmax.com/newsfront/trump-administration-planned-parenthood-funding/2025/03/25/id/1204334/).

However, not only is the Trump-Vance not ushering in a true ‘Golden Age,’ there will be many unintended consequences of it that are already beginning to happen already.

Regarding the current Donald Trump presidency, here is something I wrote that was published BEFORE he took office in 2025 and it is available at Amazon Kindle: Unintended Consequences and Donald Trump’s Presidency: Is Donald Trump Fulfilling Biblical, Islamic, Greco-Roman Catholic, Buddhist, and other America-Related Prophecies? as well as Amazon print Unintended Consequences and Donald Trump’s Presidency: Is Donald Trump Fulfilling Biblical, Islamic, Greco-Roman Catholic, Buddhist, and other America-Related Prophecies?:

Donald Trump is Fulfilling End Time Prophecy

Donald Trump is clearly an apocalyptic leader (cf. 2 Timothy 3:1-5). Although he is not the final Antichrist that the Bible warns about, Donald Trump has been helping fulfill many aspects of prophecy. Donald Trump is expected to help enable the rise of the final Antichrist—so will any possible successor to him.

Donald Trump has supported Islamic goals for an Arabic-confederation indirectly, and sometimes more directly, which will lead to a leader rising up over certain Islamic lands (Daniel 11:40; Ezekiel 30:1-8).

While I believe that he believes he wants to help, certain of his actions are pointing to destruction.

Donald Trump has made political, economic, and military statements which will ultimately help the rise of the upcoming Beast power in Europe. Donald Trump seems to think the relationship between Europe and the USA is better than it really is.

This European Beast power will, after it has a prophesied reorganization and rises up, destroy the United States (Daniel 11:39). And the leader of this power is supposed to rise up “When the transgressors have reached their fullness,” (Daniel 8:23).

Donald Trump has specifically caused people of the United States to err further away from biblical morality, which will lead to destruction (Isaiah 3:12; 9:16). Instead of advocating what should be considered as biblical morality, he has pushed positions that are clearly opposed to the laws of God (e.g. Romans 1:18-32).

He has advocated policies (as have others) which are expected to increase the debt of the USA, hurt its military superiority, lead to civil unrest (cf. Deuteronomy 32:25), and set the USA up for ruin (Habakkuk 2:6-8).

Unintended Consequences

While Donald Trump seems to believe that his policies are best for the United States, notice some unintended consequences of them:

  • While promoting peace is good, once the Middle East deal is confirmed by a European leader (called a prince in Daniel 9:26), the 3 ½ year countdown to the start of the Great Tribulation and the conquering of the USA and its British-descended allies will begin.
  • Pushing tariffs and sanctions on other countries is contributing to the rise of the final time of the Gentiles (Luke 21:24; Ezekiel 7:24).
  • Pushing tariffs and other policies that foreign nations do not like is contributing to other nations looking to bypass the USA dollar, as well as trade more with each other and less with the USA. This will further push various globalist’s moves forward without the USA. This is also helping set the stage for the coming European Babylonian Beast to dominate international trade.
  • Although national repentance could delay the coming conquering (cf. Daniel 4:27) of the USA (Daniel 11:39), Donald Trump instead is focused more on economic matters. Since that repentance is not expected, a European will end up in charge (cf. Hosea 11:1a, 3a, 4b, 5b-7).
  • Focusing on Bitcoin, instead of gold, will not provide the USA with the financial stability that it wants. Instead it looks to be another reason other nations will accumulate gold. Gold which will outlast the dollar of the USA.
  • The Bible warns against condoning sexual immorality as deadly (Romans 1:18-32), and that is something that Donald Trump does not seem to realize.
  • Pushing debt increasing policies will put the USA into a position where it will be conquered, consistent with Habakkuk 2:6-8. This will lead to the land of the USA being divided (cf. Daniel 11:39; Lamentations 4:16; Amos 7:17).
  • Pushing against Europe’s unity is encouraging the Europeans, which are prophesied to have unity difficulties (cf. Daniel 2:41-43), to try harder to unify, which will happen after at least two reorganizations (Revelation 17:12-13).
  • By breaking political norms and acting like a ‘strong man’ this will help Europeans being more accepting of their beast ‘strong man’ (Revelation 13:1-10; 17:13).
  • Donald Trump’s statements will help promote the rise of stronger European leaders like Karl-Theodor zu Guttenberg.
  • Although, overall, the European nations have not paid for their defense to the amount they have suggested they would, pressuring them to spend more will 1) encourage them to be independent of the USA and 2) put Europe in a position where it has a great army (Daniel 11:25), many ships (Daniel 11:40), and access to nuclear weapons (cf. Deuteronomy 29:23-25; Isaiah 9:19-21;Ezekiel 6:6), which will help it conquer the USA, which is the military power with the strongest fortresses (cf. Daniel 11:39).

Christians are to “walk by faith, not by sight” (2 Corinthians 5:7). By faith we trust the prophecies in the word of God over plans of humans (cf. Psalm 118:9).

That is one way for Christians to avoid negative “unintended consequences.”

More items, as well as specific predictions related to the presidency of Donald Trump are in the Amazon Kindle book: Unintended Consequences and Donald Trump’s Presidency: Is Donald Trump Fulfilling Biblical, Islamic, Greco-Roman Catholic, Buddhist, and other America-Related Prophecies?

Now since that book came out, world events have aligned with several warning, predictions, and unintended consequences pointed to in it. Below, in italics, are statements from that book, with the page numbers where the prediction can be found in the printed book shown within ():

  1. Pushing tariffs and other policies that foreign nations do not like is contributing to other nations looking to bypass the USA dollar, as well as trade more with each other and less with the USA. This will further push various globalist’s moves forward without the USA. (p.210) Confirmation: Because of tariff threats from Donald Trump, on 1/21/25, EU President Ursula von der Leyen stated that Europe would seek out others to trade with (https://www.politico.eu/article/eu-donald-trump-america-we-have-other-options-ursula-von-der-leyen/). On 2/27/25, Ursula von der Leyen went to India to push for closer trade ties for reasons including Donald Trump’s tariff pushing (https://www.dw.com/en/von-der-leyen-arrives-in-india-to-strengthen-partnership/a-71768504). Another unintended consequence has been that Europeans and Canadians are talking about boycotting American exports, plus France’s Macron and others in Europe are discussing boycotting to the maximum degree possible, American weapons 03/19/25 (https://www.politico.eu/article/eu-freeze-us-multi-billion-defense-plan-arm-makers/).
  2. Gold will set records in U.S. dollar terms. … … gold will set further records in U.S. dollar terms in the relatively near future. (pp. 205, 206). Confirmation: Gold hit a record price on 1/31/25 (https://www.reuters.com/markets/commodities/gold-hits-record-high-trump-tariff-worries-mount-2025-01-31/) and did it again on 02/10/25 as well as on 3/13/25 and 3/14/25 and since. The record price of gold reflects a record minimum value in gold for the USA dollar.
  3. Expect more protests against Donald Trump. (p. 15) There are issues with what Donald Trump says when he speaks. I expect protests. (p. 44). Donald Trump has been a polarizing figure and has offended many including minorities, migrants, and Muslims. Expect civil unrest and rioting. The Bible prophesies “There shall be terror within” (Deuteronomy 32:25). (p. 89). Confirmation: Numerous protests as well as some violence have begun 03/17/25 (https://www.npr.org/2025/03/17/nx-s1-5328626/elon-musk-protests-tesla-takedown) and 03/16/25 (https://endoftheamericandream.com/why-is-the-media-so-quiet-about-the-anti-trump-violence-that-is-erupting-all-over-the-nation/)
  4. One of the unintended consequence of his actions is, that after crises (cf. Revelation 6:7-8), more Europeans will decide that they need their own even stronger leader—which will happen per Revelation 13:10 and 17:13.(pp. 58-59). Partial confirmation: This already started to happen at a European political conference on 2/08/25 (https://www.euronews.com/my-europe/2025/02/08/your-time-is-over-far-right-leaders-take-on-the-eus-mainstream-parties). And at least one German politician, Friedrich Merz, has been called ‘The Führer ‘ on 03/23/25 (https://www.zerohedge.com/geopolitical/fuhrer-germany-friedrich-merz-war-spending-frenzy)
  5. Donald Trump has often encouraged increased military spending by the Europeans. … Donald Trump is helping enable the rise of the King of the North/Beast power who will be in league with the final Antichrist. (p. 87). Partial confirmation: This is partially confirmed as Kaja Kallas, Vice President of the European Commission stated on 1/22/25 that Europe needs to spend more as Donald Trump called for (https://www.euronews.com/my-europe/2025/01/22/eu-must-spend-more-than-1-of-gdp-on-defence-to-prepare-for-the-worst-kallas-says). It has been reported that Germany will spend up to 1.7 trillion euros on military matters 03/23/25 (https://www.zerohedge.com/geopolitical/fuhrer-germany-friedrich-merz-war-spending-frenzy). “Europe has become convinced that its American ally will no longer guarantee its security, and has decided to rearm massively” 03/26/25 (https://www.euronews.com/my-europe/2025/03/26/readiness-2030-how-is-europe-planning-to-rearm-and-can-it-afford-it).
  6. Donald Trump’s rise has also spurred the Europeans to further unify among themselves. … Donald Trump has been pointed to by various European leaders as ‘proof’ that Europe needs more unification and distance from the USA. (p. 88). Confirmations: More of this has since happened (https://www.euronews.com/my-europe/2025/01/22/eu-must-spend-more-than-1-of-gdp-on-defence-to-prepare-for-the-worst-kallas-says and https://www.msn.com/en-gb/money/other/eu-enlargement-debate-at-davos-focuses-on-europe-s-global-role-and-growth/ar-AA1xBhgq?ocid=finance-verthp-feeds) and a EU foreign ministers meeting on 1/27/25 called for a unified approach to deal with US President Donald Trump and what analysts refer to as his “divide and rule policy” (https://www.dw.com/en/eu-sanctions-russia-trump-2025/a-71427544). Europeans have called for a “New World Order Based on European Values” 03/24/25 (https://www.zerohedge.com/geopolitical/new-world-order-european-values-unholy-union-globalism-and-anti-free-speech-measures). And “the old world order appears to be over – and the new world order has yet to take shape” 03/26/25 (https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/c2er9j83x0zo)
  7. Donald Trump … Many have rightly pointed out that he often acts as a bully. (p. 47). Confirmation: This has happened within weeks of Donald Trump taking office (e.g. https://www.the-independent.com/news/world/europe/trump-zelensky-us-deal-ukraine-russia-war-b2702046.html).
  8. It is believed that Donald Trump will likely use some type of “maximum pressure” strategy again against Iran during his next Administration. (p. 67). Confirmation: This is now his Administration’s position and Iran is not happy with it (https://www.dw.com/en/iran-says-will-not-bow-to-us-maximum-pressure-strategy/a-71745081).
  9. The Bible teaches about a great power who will be destroyed by its friends, who become enemies (Lamentations 1:1-2)—some statements by Donald Trump are pushing “friends” (NATO allies) into being enemies. (pp. 48-49). Partial Confirmation: It has been reported that Donald Trump is turning USA friends into enemies, “frenemies” (https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/c93ll927v18o); Statements from Trump-Vance Administration leaders have insulted Europe 03/25/25 (https://www.euronews.com/2025/03/25/pathetic-european-free-loading-us-officials-slam-europe-in-leaked-chat) ” “Horrific to see in black and white. But hardly surprising,” is how a top European diplomat reacted to what comes across as deep, heartfelt disdain for European allies” 03/25/25 (https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/c204vl27n2qo) and “nearly three quarters of French people now think that the United States is not an ally of France. A … very large majority in Denmark, … historically pro-American … have unfavourable views of the United States as well” 03/26/25 (https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/c2er9j83x0zo)
  10. Jesus warned about a coming time of pestilences as part of the beginning of sorrows (Matthew 24:4-8)—they are consistent with the ride of the 4thhorseman of the Apocalypse (Revelation 6:7-8)—that ride may well start in the second term of a Donald Trump Administration. Actions and/or inactions by Donald Trump will likely put the USA at increased risk of problems from pestilences. (p. 90). Potential confirmation: Donald Trump announced he is pulling the USA out of the World Health Organization 01/21/25 (https://fortune.com/well/2025/01/21/trump-who-us-remove-world-health-organization/).
  11. His policies are pushing nations away from the USA and helping set the stage for the final times of the Gentiles (cf. Ezekiel 7:24, 39:23; Luke 21:24). (p. 91). Potential confirmation: Donald Trump’s comments at the WEF reportedly silenced the crowd and made them “stone-faced” 01/23/25 (https://www.businessinsider.com/donald-trump-davos-speech-world-economic-forum-eu-2025-1). These leaders were not pleased and will take actions. Ursula von der Leyen said “Europe will keep seeking co-operation — not only with our long-time, like-minded friends, but with any country we share interests with” 01/21/25 (https://www.politico.eu/article/eu-donald-trump-america-we-have-other-options-ursula-von-der-leyen/)
  12. His statements are getting more in Europe to consider that they need to reorganize and support some type of a strong man leader. The Bible shows that will happen in Revelation 17:12-13. (p. 91). Speculative confirmation: I cannot imagine that at the WEF and within the EU they are not discussing something like a stronger European leader and a reorganization of Europe. For example the chief executive of a European bank at the WEF conference stated,  “I heard the EU talking about the willingness to make changes,” and “The truth of the matter is every time they do something they create more bureaucracy, more complexity. They need to have a huge reset” (https://www.theguardian.com/business/2025/jan/24/davos-donald-trump-tariffs-eu-us). Germans have noticed that what they call the “far right” is gaining because of Donald Trump and that right wing leaders look more useful now (https://www.german-foreign-policy.com/en/news/detail/9836 01/21/25). Furthermore, EU President Von der Leyen said this week, “To sustain our growth in the next quarter of the century, Europe must shift gears,” (https://www.theguardian.com/business/2025/jan/24/davos-donald-trump-tariffs-eu-us) that sounds like a plea to reorganize.
  13. Official USA debt will rise in Donald Trump’s second term in office. Donald Trump supported a bill to increase debt 03/15/25 https://www.barrons.com/articles/ai-stocks-nvidia-amazon-microsoft-coreweave-ipo-ddee09ff

There will be many unintended consequences of the Trump-Vance Administration. Donald Trump was not sent by God to save America.

The United States needs repentance, the return of Jesus, and the coming Kingdom of God. The real golden age.

New German Führer? “A New World Order With European Values”

Tuesday, March 25th, 2025


(Christian Cable via Wikipedia)

COGwriter

Changes are happening in Europe and some are concerned:

German Business Optimism Grows After Merz’s Spending Push

March 25, 2025

German business optimism rose to the highest level since June 2024 as Chancellor-in-waiting Friedrich Merz readies hundreds of billions of euros of spending to modernize the economy. …

The prospects for Europe’s biggest economy have improved after last month’s election and Merz’s subsequent pledge to shore up Germany’s aging infrastructure and military. https://www.msn.com/en-us/money/markets/german-business-optimism-grows-after-merz-s-spending-push/ar-AA1BBAUI

The Führer Of Germany: Friedrich Merz In A War & Spending Frenzy

After more than 80 years, Germany once again has a Führer who is in no way inferior to the old one in terms of mendacity and megalomania while spending sums that are unimaginable for most people. …

If you had described Friedrich Merz’s current behavior to a German 10 years ago, you would have been declared insane and put in a clinic without raising a fuss.

Friedrich Merz, who refuses to form a coalition with the AFD because he accuses them of right-wing extremism, is preparing Germany for war against Russia. … the Handelsblatt reported that up to 1.7 trillion could be spent. This article will prove that this plan is madness, simply by putting this astronomical figure into perspective for regular people. …

Without even mentioning that Friedrich Merz’s actions are more than legally questionable, it is already clear from the figure of 1.7 trillion euros that he has lost his mind. 03/23/25 https://www.zerohedge.com/geopolitical/fuhrer-germany-friedrich-merz-war-spending-frenzy

The shift in German spending and debt attitudes has been pushed by reactions and perceptions of Donald Trump and his Administration–which has shown disparaging disrespect and even hatred against Europe (see US Defense Secretary refers to Europeans as ‘pathetic freeloaders,’ US VP complains of ‘bailing Europe’ again, and US National Security Adviser blasts weak European Union navy).

While I do NOT consider that Friedrich Merz is “a Führer” in Germany, the fact is that Germany has made major moves to once again become a military power. And yes, while part of this, Friedrich Merz is only one of many in Germany and elsewhere in Europe that want this.

But Europeans want more than just military power. Jonathan Turley posted on X and also wrote about some of what the Europeans want:

“A New World Order With European Values”: The Unholy Union Of Globalism And Anti-Free Speech Measures

March 24, 2025

“A New World Order With European Values.” Emblazoned across banners and signs, those words met the participants at … the World Forum in Berlin. …

In fairness to the Forum, “a New World Order” likely sounds more ominous for some civil libertarians than intended. While the European Union is a transnational government stretching across 27 nations, the organizers were referring to a shift of values away from the United States to Europe. …

I found it an unnerving message. Even putting aside the implications of the New World Order, the idea of building a world on today’s European values is alarming for free speech.

Free speech is in a free fall in Europe, with ever-expanding speech regulations and criminal prosecutions — including for having “toxic ideologies.”

There has long been a push for transnational governing systems, and European figures see an opportunity created by the conflict with President Trump. The European Union is the model for such a Pax Europaea or “European peace.”

The problem is that this vision for a new Holy Roman Empire lacks a Charlamagne. More importantly, it lacks public support.

The very notion of a “New World Order” is chilling to many who oppose the rise of a globalist class with the rise of transnational governance in the European Union and beyond.

This year, there is a sense of panic among Europe’s elite over the victory of Trump and the Republicans in the U.S., as well as nationalist and populist European movements.

For globalists, the late Tip O’Neill’s rule that “all politics is local” is anathema. The European Union is intended to transcend national identities and priorities in favor of an inspired transnational government managed by an expert elite. …

With the rise of populist groups, anti-immigration movements and critics of European governance, there is a palpable challenge to EU authority. In that environment, free speech can be viewed as destabilizing because it spreads dissent and falsehoods about these figures and their agenda. Thus far, “European peace” has come at the price of silencing many of those voices; achieving the pretense of consensus through coerced silence.

Transnational governance requires consent over a wide swath of territory. The means that the control or cooperation of media and social media is essential to maintaining the consent of the governed.

That is why free speech is in a tailspin in Europe, with ever-expanding speech regulations and criminal prosecutions. …

However, given the current laws limiting political speech, a “New World Order Based on European Values” is hardly an inviting prospect for those who believe in robust democratic and free speech values. https://www.zerohedge.com/geopolitical/new-world-order-european-values-unholy-union-globalism-and-anti-free-speech-measures

Well, a European “new world order” will be put in place. The European Union is helping set that up.

Although Jonathan Turley wrote that “The problem is that this vision for a new Holy Roman Empire lacks a Charlamagne {sic},” the Bible shows that Europe will reorganize and power will be given to a dictator called the beast:

12 “The ten horns which you saw are ten kings who have received no kingdom as yet, but they receive authority for one hour as kings with the beast. 13 These are of one mind, and they will give their power and authority to the beast.  (Revelation 17:12-13)

The European new world order will be militaristic (Revelation 13:3-4), brutal (Revelation 13:15), with totalitarian controls (Revelation 13:16-18):

3 And I saw one of his heads as if it had been mortally wounded, and his deadly wound was healed. And all the world marveled and followed the beast. 4 So they worshiped the dragon who gave authority to the beast; and they worshiped the beast, saying, “Who is like the beast? Who is able to make war with him?”

5 And he was given a mouth speaking great things and blasphemies, and he was given authority to continue for forty-two months.  (Revelation 13:3-5)

15 He was granted power to give breath to the image of the beast, that the image of the beast should both speak and cause as many as would not worship the image of the beast to be killed. 16 He causes all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and slave, to receive a mark on their right hand or on their foreheads, 17 and that no one may buy or sell except one who has the mark or the name of the beast, or the number of his name.

18 Here is wisdom. Let him who has understanding calculate the number of the beast, for it is the number of a man: His number is 666.  (Revelation 13:15-18)

The so-called ‘Holy Roman Empire’ was mortally wounded, but has began to rise again in Europe (see also The European Union and the Seven Kings of Revelation 17).

There will be a new world order.

It will be led by someone worse than the Führer called Adolf Hitler.

Pushing Europe towards that is one of the many unintended consequences of the Trump-Vance Administration.

US Defense Secretary refers to Europeans as ‘pathetic freeloaders,’ US VP complains of ‘bailing Europe’ again, and US National Security Adviser blasts weak European Union navy

Leaders in the Trump-Vance Administration made disparaging comments about Europe and its military limitations.

Euronews reported the following:

‘Pathetic European free-loading’: US officials slam Europe in leaked chat

25 March 2025

Trump’s top national security officials laid bare their disdain for Europe in a top-secret group chat that was leaked when a journalist was mistakenly added to the conversation.

“I fully share your loathing of European free-loading. It’s pathetic” — this is how US Defence Secretary Pete Hegseth described the continent in a top-secret operational group chat with the Trump administration’s national security heavyweights. …

In the leaked conversation conducted on the Signal app, unauthorised for classified official conversations, Vance said how much he hated “bailing Europe again”, claiming that the strikes on Houthis and the subsequent unblocking of trade routes would benefit Europe most.

“Three per cent of US trade runs through the Suez. 40% of European trade does. There is a real risk that the public doesn’t understand this or why it’s necessary,” the US vice president said at the start of the discussion. …

Later in the conversation, Waltz criticised the limited capabilities of European navies.

“It will have to be the United States that reopens these shipping lanes. Per the president’s request we are working with DOD and State to determine how to compile the cost associated and levy them on the Europeans,” Trump’s national security advisor said.

Hegseth responded, saying, “I fully share your loathing of European free-loading. It’s pathetic.” https://www.euronews.com/2025/03/25/pathetic-european-free-loading-us-officials-slam-europe-in-leaked-chat

USA leaders should be careful about what they are asking for.

Which is?

That the Europeans should ramp up military spending and not rely as much on the USA.

The Bible prophesies that Europe will end up with a “great army” (Daniel 11:25) and “many ships” (Daniel 11:40)–so Europe will have a navy. And according to Danial 11:30 and Numbers 24:24, the time will come when there is a naval encounter between Europe and the USA that will set up the end time matters–for details, check out the article: Who is the King of the North?

Ultimately, the USA will be defeated by the coming European power (cf. Daniel 11:39). The world will marvel (cf. Revelation 13:3-4).

While Europe has been relying on the USA for defense, many Europeans do not like that nor trust the USA.

The time will come when Europe concludes it not only does not need the USA, but that it would prefer to destroy it! Many in Europe are working towards that now.

Related to what the relationship between Europe and the United States is leading to, the Continuing Church of God put together the following video on our Bible News Prophecy YouTube channel discussing various views and scriptures about that:

14:26

European Union wants to be militarily independent of the USA – check, European Union wants a larger military – check, European Union wants nukes – check, European Union wants this for defensive purposes –will Europe acquire a great army? Will Europe defeat the Biblical King of the South? Is Europe the King of the North? Will Europe defeat the King(s) from the east? Here’s a big question – will Europe conquer the United States of America? Is the United State of America mentioned in the Bible? These are fascinating questions that will be answered in the very near future. The fact that these conflicts will occur is a certainty, as they are a prophesied fact in the Bible in the book of Daniel. But when will these conflicts occur? Daniel was told to shut up the words, they were for the time of the end. Dan 12:4: ‘But thou, O Daniel, shut up the words, and seal the book, even to the time of the end: many shall run to and fro, and knowledge shall be increased.’ We are there. This is the time of the end. Dr. Thiel will shine the light on the answers to these questions. One answer, in particular, is sure to stun thousands.

Here is a link to our video: European Union wants military independence from the USA.

The Trump-Vance Administration has caused fears in Europe about the USA’s military commitments. The recent statements by leaders in that Administration will push Europeans farther away from the USA.

Even prior to them, the Europeans even had a meeting earlier this month to question whether or not the USA was even an ally. The Continuing Church of God put together the following related video on our Bible News Prophecy YouTube channel discussing various views and scriptures about that:

14:48

Should Europe Still Consider Itself a US Ally?

The United States has paused aid to Ukraine. Europe is nervous and wonders if the United States’ commitment to European security is unclear. Some leaders in Europe “agree they must strengthen their defense capabilities”. Europe is dedicating huge amounts of money to weapons. And Europe’s military technology is advancing. Revelation 13 tell us of a militaristic “beast with a mortal head wound” – this is Europe. The Bible asks –“who can make war with the beast?” Is WWIII on the horizon? What nation is Lamentations 1:1-2 referring to who will be betrayed by her “friends”–and who are her “friends” that become her “enemies”? Dr. Thiel helps shine the light of Biblical prophecy on the answers to these questions. Answers from the verses of the Bible that bring prophecy to life.

Here is a link to our video: Should Europe Still Consider Itself a US Ally?

The Europeans have been mad at the USA for many reasons (including its President Trump) and these leaked comments by US leaders look to further anger the Europeans.

Whose side ARE they on? Fury at US plot to ‘extort’ Europe over key global shipping route as extraordinary security bungle reveals Team Trump branding closest allies ‘pathetic freeloaders’

25 March 2025

MPs voiced fury today after an extraordinary security bungle revealed some of Donald Trump’s most senior team condemning Europe as ‘pathetic freeloaders’.

A bombshell exchange on the Signal messaging app – accidentally shared with a journalist – showed an elite group including JD Vance, Defence Secretary Pete Hegseth and national security advisor Mike Waltz voicing ‘loathing’ for their long-term allies. …

One senior Tory MP, a long-term Atlanticist, told MailOnline that the situation was a ‘nightmare’.

‘I think Europe needs to take it seriously and not think it’s just casual chat,’ they said.

The MP said it appeared to confirm the ‘hatred’ of Europe at the top level of the Trump administration, but voiced hope that the wider government still had a grip of the country’s real interests. https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-14533905/US-Trump-plot-extort-Europe-shipping-route-security-bungle-Team-Trump-freeloaders.html

Allies do not want to be hated, but statements “at the top level of the Trump administration” look to be showing that.

There will be consequences.

The Bible prophesies that a power that appears to be the USA will be attacked by “friends”:

How lonely sits the city
That was full of people!

How like a widow is she,
Who was great among the nations!

The princess among the provinces Has become a slave!

2 She weeps bitterly in the night,
Her tears are on her cheeks;
Among all her lovers
She has none to comfort her.

All her friends have dealt treacherously with her;
They have become her enemies. cf. Lamentations 1:1-2).

Notice the one who was “great among the nations”–the USA–will be conquered by friends (in this case Europeans), who will become enemies.

Statements by US leaders that were just leaked were not particularly friendly.

Yes, American “friends” are going to become “enemies.”

This will not turn out well for the USA.

Greenlanders not pleased with Usha Vance’s visit plans–Denmark sends extra police

A delegation, including the wife of the US Vice President, is planning to go to Greenland.

Denmark is concerned and many Greenlanders are upset:

Danish police fly extra forces to Greenland ahead of second lady Usha Vance’s visit

March 24, 2025

Danish police sent extra personnel and sniffer dogs to Greenland as the icy island steps up security measures ahead of a planned visit this week by second lady Usha Vance, the chief spokesman for Denmark’s national police said.

René Gyldensten said Monday the extra officers, deployed the day before, were part of regular steps taken during visits by dignitaries to Greenland, a self-governing, mineral-rich territory of American ally Denmark. …

Vance will leave on Thursday and return Saturday, a statement from her office said. She and one of her three children will be part of a U.S. delegation that will “visit historic sites” and “learn about Greenlandic heritage.”

On her visit, Vance will attend the Avannaata Qimussersu, Greenland’s national dogsled race, featuring about 37 mushers and 444 dogs. The statement said Vance and the U.S. delegation “are excited to witness this monumental race and celebrate Greenlandic culture and unity.” …

Media outlets in Greenland and Denmark reported that Vance would be accompanied by Trump’s national security adviser, Mike Waltz. The White House and the National Security Council did not immediately respond to requests for comment.

Trump had mused during his first term about buying the world’s largest island, even as Denmark, a NATO ally, insisted it wasn’t for sale. The people of Greenland have also firmly rejected Trump’s plans.

Since returning to the White House, Trump has repeatedly said that the U.S. will come to control Greenland while insisting he supports the idea for strategic national security reasons https://abcnews.go.com/International/wireStory/danish-police-fly-extra-forces-greenland-ahead-lady-120088701

Greenland PM denounces Usha Vance’s visit as Trump eyes control of Danish territory

March 24, 2025

Second lady Usha Vance will visit Greenland this week as the Trump administration continues to suggest the United States should take over the Danish territory. …

Media outlets in Greenland and Denmark reported that Vance would be accompanied by Trump’s national security adviser, Mike Waltz.

Greenland Prime Minister Mute Egede denounced the trip on Monday, according to the French news agency AFP.

It should be said clearly that our integrity and democracy must be respected without foreign interference,” AFP wrote, adding that it “cannot be seen as just a private visit.

Vice President JD Vance said during an interview on Fox News Sunday that Trump “doesn’t care” what the Europeans think. …

In January, Anders Vistisen, a Danish member of the European Parliament, responded to Trump, telling him Greenland is not for sale.

“Dear President Trump, listen very carefully,” he said. “Greenland has been part of the Danish kingdom for 800 years. It’s an integrated part of our country.” https://wjla.com/news/nation-world/greenland-pm-prime-minister-mute-egede-denounces-second-lady-usha-vances-visit-as-presidet-donald-trump-eyes-control-of-danish-territory-national-security-adviser-mike-waltz

Greenland’s prime minister slams ‘highly aggressive’ visit by US officials, including second lady Usha Vance

March 25, 2025

Greenland’s prime minister said a planned visit to the island by US officials, including second lady Usha Vance, is “highly aggressive,” plunging relations to a new low after President Donald Trump vowed to annex the autonomous Danish territory.

Vance, the wife of US Vice President JD Vance, will travel to Greenland this week to watch the island’s national dogsled race and “celebrate Greenlandic culture and unity,” according to a statement from the White House. National security adviser Mike Waltz is also expected to visit the territory this week, according to a source familiar with the trip.

Greenland Prime Minister Mute B. Egede called the US delegation’s trip to the island “highly aggressive” in an interview with Greenlandic newspaper Sermitsiaq on Sunday, and raised particular objection to Waltz’s visit.

“What is the national security adviser doing in Greenland? The only purpose is to demonstrate power over us,” Egede said. “His mere presence in Greenland will no doubt fuel American belief in Trump’s mission — and the pressure will increase.”

Trump’s idea to annex Greenland has thrown an international spotlight on the territory, which holds vast stores of rare earth minerals critical for high-tech industries, and has raised questions about the island’s future security as the US, Russia and China vie for influence in the Arctic. Trump has repeatedly expressed interest in the US taking the island by force or economic coercion, even as Denmark and Greenland have firmly rejected the idea. https://www.cnn.com/2025/03/24/world/greenland-prime-minister-us-usha-vance-intl-hnk/index.html

24 March 2025

Jens-Frederik Nielsen, the country’s likely next leader who is currently in talks to form a coalition government, also criticised the actions of the Trump administration.

“The fact that the Americans are well aware we are in the middle of negotiations once again shows a lack of respect for the Greenlandic people,” he said.

American relations with the US and Greenland have become strained this year, as US President Donald Trump has promised to gain control of the island “one way or another”, citing American national security as a justification.

“I think we will have it,” Trump said of Greenland shortly after the start of his second presidential term. …

Recent polling has shown that 85% of Greenlanders are against Trump’s plans. https://www.euronews.com/my-europe/2025/03/24/greenlands-prime-minister-condemns-us-officials-visit-as-demonstration-of-power

Yes, the visit this week can be considered as aggressive, particularly in light of some comments of the US Vice President:

24 March 2025

Vice President J.D Vance’s words attacking Denmark for not being a “good ally” have circulated online once again as his wife prepares to visit the world’s largest island this week.

Asked whether he believed the U.S. could acquire Greenland during an interview with Fox News host Maria Bartiromo in February, Vance said: “I think it’s possible, Maria.”

“Here’s the thing which I think a lot of folks don’t appreciate about Greenland.

“It’s really important to our national security,” the vice president claimed.

Vance explained that there are “sea lanes” surrounding Greenland, used by the Chinese and the Russians. The former Ohio senator accused the Danish government of restricting U.S. access and, therefore, “not doing its job” and “not being a good ally.” https://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/americas/us-politics/jd-vance-denmark-greenland-bad-ally-b2720363.html

Last month, Germany said it was considering being part of the defense in Greenland:

Germany ready to deploy troops to Greenland – Spiegel

5 February 2025

The German government could pledge troops to a proposed NATO mission in Greenland, according to sources cited by Der Spiegel on Tuesday. The reported initiative by European members of the military bloc would aim to mitigate tensions created by President Donald Trump’s push for US sovereignty over the Danish island.

Trump has framed his bid for Greenland as a national security issue, …

EU leaders and NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte discussed enhancing NATO’s presence in Greenland to try to alleviate the pressure from Trump, according to Der Spiegel, corroborating earlier media reports. Publicly, Rutte has emphasized the organization’s commitment to collectively addressing geopolitical challenges. …

Marie-Agnes Strack-Zimmermann, chairperson of the German parliamentary defense committee, expressed support for deploying troops to Denmark, telling Spiegel that it would signal to the US that it cannot claim sole rights over Greenland. https://www.rt.com/news/612215-greenland-nato-mission-spiegel/

The Trump-Vance Administration is upsetting many nations. The fact is that there will be many unintended consequences of his statements, threats, and policies.

They are pushing away many allies and offending a lot of them. More and more are seeing him act as a bully.

Related to Greenland, here is something from my latest book available at Amazon Kindle: Unintended Consequences and Donald Trump’s Presidency: Is Donald Trump Fulfilling Biblical, Islamic, Greco-Roman Catholic, Buddhist, and other America-Related Prophecies? as well as Amazon print Unintended Consequences and Donald Trump’s Presidency: Is Donald Trump Fulfilling Biblical, Islamic, Greco-Roman Catholic, Buddhist, and other America-Related Prophecies?:

Donald Trump’s foreign policy statements have unsettled many—in the USA as well as foreign nations. He is believed by many to be more unpredictable than Richard Nixon. Many have rightly pointed out that he often acts as a bully.

Greenland

There is also something referred to as the “law of unintended consequences.” There are consequences for the USA, Europe, and elsewhere that have and will occur because of Donald Trump’s statements and actions.

Consider, for one example, that after his reelection, Donald Trump stated that the United States needed to have Greenland for defense and economic purposes. Not only did that offend the governments of Denmark and Greenland, the Danish government then announced that it would greatly increase the amount of money it would spend on the defense of Greenland.[i]

On January 7, 2025, Donald Trump refused to rule out military or economic actions to acquire Greenland.[ii] The next day, European leaders warned they would not tolerate an attack on Greenland and that the continent of Europe was strong.[iii]

Donald Trump then stated he would implement high tariffs against Denmark to try to get it to sell Greenland to the USA.

However, that overlooks the fact that the European Union has its Anti-Coercion Instrument, which is designed to stop a foreign power from trying to punish one EU nation. Because of that, analysts report that punitive tariffs against Denmark “could lead to unintended consequences” from the EU against the USA.[iv]

One longer term consequence of Donald Trump’s rhetoric may be that the Europeans could decide that Greenland would be a useful place to conduct surveillance on the US and Canada.

Additionally, it is also possible that Greenland could be used as a base to 1) interfere with US military satellite communications, 2) possibly neutralize some US military moves in Greenland, or even 3) a place to also launch an attack against the US, Canada, and/or even the UK. The Bible teaches about a great power who will be destroyed by its friends, who become enemies (Lamentations 1:1-2)—some statements by Donald Trump are pushing “friends” (NATO allies) into being enemies. …

The USA will be attacked by “friends” consistent with the following:

How lonely sits the city
That was full of people!

How like a widow is she,
Who was great among the nations!

The princess among the provinces Has become a slave!

2 She weeps bitterly in the night,
Her tears are on her cheeks;
Among all her lovers
She has none to comfort her.

All her friends have dealt treacherously with her;
They have become her enemies. cf. Lamentations 1:1-2).

Notice the one who was “great among the nations” will be conquered by friends, who will become enemies.

The USA was prophesied to be “great” in Genesis 48:19 and is considered by international sources to be great among the nations of the world today.[v]

Others have noted that Donald Trump is treating nations who are considered to be “friends” as enemies (e.g. see RT: Zelensky says US doesn’t care about EU; BBC: Frenemies?).

Yes, the Bible teaches about a great power who will be destroyed by its friends, who become enemies (Lamentations 1:1-2)–that will include people like the Germans (cf. Isaiah 10:5-11).

And yes, a more militarized Greenland could play a role in the conquering of the USA–which is prophesied to happen (cf. Daniel 11:39).

World events are aligning with properly understood biblical prophecies.
