‘Breathing New Life Into The Old Phoenix’ in Europe?

Karl-Theodor zu Guttenberg

Breathing New Life Into The Old Phoenix

12 July 2017

I have been watching and digesting developments in Central Europe for a few years now. I have no idea how significant this is going to be from the point of the Global Citizen movement if at all, but it just happens to be an interest of mine, as you can see from myrecent posting about INDECT and KT zu Guttenberg’s disruptive activities. …

I am most interested in the role the city of Vienna and the German state of Bavaria have taken upon themselves in the shifting sands of power bases …

Is Europe an expanding bloc of nations on and around the continent, or is the future Europe an area confined to the former Hapsburg dynasty? No wonder the general news media are missing the point of what is happening here. …

The heart of Europe is stirring, but can a strong leader revive the ancient roots? Karl-Theodor zu Guttenberg remarked more than once: “There is an astonishing lack of leadership in the world”. This Central European region certainly seems to be in need of a strong leader, but its history of one bloody Holy Roman Empire after another doesn’t augur well if a scion of the old Hapsburg Empire were to stand up and breathe new life into the old phoenix. http://globalcitizennews.blogspot.nl/2017/07/i-have-been-watching-and-digesting.html

Europe will end up with a strong leader. The mythological Phoenix is a bird that is reborn. Europe’s rebirth will more than simply a revival of the old ‘Holy Roman Empire.’

The Bible warns about a power in Europe that will appear to have been eliminated by a deadly wound that will rise up:

1 Then I stood on the sand of the sea. And I saw a beast rising up out of the sea, having seven heads and ten horns, and on his horns ten crowns, and on his heads a blasphemous name. 2 Now the beast which I saw was like a leopard, his feet were like the feet of a bear, and his mouth like the mouth of a lion. The dragon gave him his power, his throne, and great authority. 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?” (Revelation 13:1-4)

Europe, to most in the USA, looks like a former power that will not rise up to world prominence, but the Bible teaches otherwise.

The mentioning of Karl-Theodor zu Guttenberg and the old Hapsburg Empire was also of interest.

Karl-Theodor zu Guttenberg’s mother was a Hapsburg, so by descent, he is as well.

The ancestry of the expected Great Monarch in Catholic prophecy sometimes supports the Baron, but not always. Here is one that partially seem to:

Brother Louis Rocco (died 1840): A Catholic descendant of a German imperial house (Hapsburg?) will rule a united Germany with peace, prosperity and great power, for God will be with this sovereign (Great Monarch?)…A Great Monarch will arise after a period of terrible wars and persecutions in Europe. He will be a Catholic, he will not be a German (by birth?). (Culleton, The Prophets and Our Times, p. 195).

Note: the parenthetical comments with question marks were inserted in the prediction by the Catholic priest Culleton. His comments (which were written about 70 years ago) would point to someone such as the Baron, who is a descendant of the Habsburg/Hapsburg line. As far as not being German, perhaps it does not mean “by birth,” but perhaps could be interpreted to mean that he has a mixed heritage (as do most of the Habsburg line). The Hapsburgs, for a time, ruled over the ‘Holy Roman Empire.’ Also note that the Great Monarch of Catholic prophecy often has traits of the final King of the North of biblical prophecy (see Who is the King of the North?).

Perhaps it should be mentioned that Herr Guttenberg may be like the Phoenix and rise again. Many considered that the plagiarism scandal that he was involved in a few years ago killed his political chances.

Consider the following prophecy about the final King of the North:

21 “‘His place will be taken by a reject, a man spurned and passed over for advancement. He’ll surprise everyone, seemingly coming out of nowhere, and will seize the kingdom. (Daniel 11:21 from THE MESSAGE: The Bible in Contemporary Language © 2002 by Eugene H. Peterson. All rights reserved.)

So, someone who was rejected will rise up. This will be the Beast’s kingdom.

Interestingly, Baron zu Guttenberg has even referred to himself as a type of a beast:

“There’s no doubt whatsoever that I’m a political animal, a ‘zoon politicon’,” he told Die Zeit newspaper in what appeared to be a carefully orchestrated comeback after eight months away from the spotlight. http://in.reuters.com/article/2011/11/24/idINIndia-60716820111124

“For Aristotle’s zoon politikon there are no persons beyond the walls of the city; outside the city there exist only beasts or gods.” page 169, Urbanization and values, CRVP, 1991, By George F. McLean, John Kromkowski

If Karl zu Guttenberg becomes the King of the North (Daniel 11:36-40), he would also be the final Beast of Revelation.

Many in Europe are looking for a strong leader to one day rise up.

One will, and many in Europe will end up regretting it.

Even if it is not Karl-Theodor zu Guttenberg.
