Brexits of the 3rd and 21st centuries
Roman Empire 117 A.D. (Tataryn)
Brexit remains in the news with both those in the UK and European Union frustrated with the process.
But did you know that the current Brexit is not Britain’s first departure from Europe? That first departure occurred in the 3rd century, from the old Roman Empire:
This isn’t the first time Britain has moved to quit a united Europe. That honor goes to the Roman province of Britannia in 286 A.D. The Brits broke away from Roman control and set up their own independent empire, which lasted a decade.
At that time, most of Europe was united under the Roman Empire, and Britain enjoyed all the benefits of free trade and a single currency, free movement of people, and of course Roman roads, sanitation, justice and security. So what happened to make these ancient Britons quit such a comfortable setup?
Well, it wasn’t so comfortable. Taxes were high and demands for labor were pretty intense. Roman Europe was also evolving into a proto-feudal society, which many poorer people found oppressive. …
Unlike the European Union leaders in Brussels, the emperor of Rome was determined, and able, to use force to re-unite Europe. But thanks largely to geography, Carausius and his successor were able to hold out for 10 years. They established an effective government, raising taxes and issuing coins, building roads, milestones and forts. He won the support of the merchant class. He sought peace with his “brothers” — the emperors of Rome, but failed. http://www.usatoday.com/story/news/world/2016/06/27/britains-first-brexit-286-d/86422358/
Do I expect the Europeans to use force against Britain again?
Yes.
Now?
No.
It will take years before the power in Europe will decide that force against Britain is needed (for some biblical details see When Will the Great Tribulation Begin?). But it will happen and Britain will be no more.
An empire is intended for Europe. Notice the following:
‘EU WANTS AN EMPIRE’ Brussels hope to expand its influence as far as ASIA and AFRICA
THE EU wants to expand its influence as far and wide as Asia and Africa – with critics fuming it shows Brussels are planning to form “its own empire”.
1 July 2016
The latest EU foreign policy document, titled Global Strategy, calls for an extended reach into new spheres as distant as the Middle East and sub-Saharan Africa. It also outlined “gradual synchronisation and mutual adaptation” between different member states’ individual defence strategies.
Ukip’s defence spokesman Mike Hookem said: “The EU wants its own Empire as former Commission President Jose Manuel Barroso made clear when he was in charge.
“This global strategy by the EU is yet another reason why last Thursday’s result was a lucky escape for the UK.” http://www.express.co.uk/news/world/685005/EU-superstate-army-plans-Brussels-expand-reach-China-Africa-Brexit-Ukip
As far as extensions into Africa and Asia go, the old Roman Empire extended into both the Near East and Africa. While biblically, we realize that the European Beast empire will dominate Europe, prophecies also show that it will end up controlling areas in the Middle East and Africa (cf. Daniel 11:40-43).
Consider that some believe that the European Union has been helpful for peace in a way similar to the old Roman Empire (bolding mine). Here are some comments from the late Charles Krauthammer:
The result is the EU … has given Europe the most extended period of internal tranquillity since the Roman Empire. (In conjunction, of course, with NATO, which provided Europe with its American umbrella against external threat.) 30 June 2016 http://www.chicagotribune.com/news/opinion/commentary/ct-brexit-eu-britain-europe-krauthammer-perspec-0701-jm-20160630-story.html
The future leader of that European empire, called the King of the North in Daniel 11, will profess peace:
21 And in his place shall arise a vile person, to whom they will not give the honor of royalty; but he shall come in peaceably, and seize the kingdom by intrigue. 22 With the force of a flood they shall be swept away from before him and be broken, and also the prince of the covenant. 23 And after the league is made with him he shall act deceitfully, for he shall come up and become strong with a small number of people. 24 He shall enter peaceably, even into the richest places of the province; and he shall do what his fathers have not done, nor his forefathers: he shall disperse among them the plunder, spoil, and riches; and he shall devise his plans against the strongholds, but only for a time. (Daniel 11:21-24)
The Bible warns of a temporal peace deal (Daniel 9:27) as well as a time when people will proclaim peace before destruction comes:
3 For when they say, “Peace and safety!” then sudden destruction comes upon them, as labor pains upon a pregnant woman. And they shall not escape. (1 Thessalonians 5:3)
The one called the King of the North in Daniel 11 (who is also called the Beast of the Sea in Revelation 13), will bring destruction:
36 “Then the king shall do according to his own will: he shall exalt and magnify himself above every god, shall speak blasphemies against the God of gods, and shall prosper till the wrath has been accomplished; for what has been determined shall be done. 37 He shall regard neither the God of his fathers nor the desire of women, nor regard any god; for he shall exalt himself above them all. 38 But in their place he shall honor a god of fortresses; and a god which his fathers did not know he shall honor with gold and silver, with precious stones and pleasant things. 39 Thus he shall act against the strongest fortresses with a foreign god, which he shall acknowledge, and advance its glory; and he shall cause them to rule over many, and divide the land for gain.
40 “At the time of the end the king of the South shall attack him; and the king of the North shall come against him like a whirlwind, with chariots, horsemen, and with many ships; and he shall enter the countries, overwhelm them, and pass through. 41 He shall also enter the Glorious Land, and many countries shall be overthrown; but these shall escape from his hand: Edom, Moab, and the prominent people of Ammon. 42 He shall stretch out his hand against the countries, and the land of Egypt shall not escape. 43 He shall have power over the treasures of gold and silver, and over all the precious things of Egypt; also the Libyans and Ethiopians shall follow at his heels. (Daniel 11:36-43)
These warring efforts will destroy the USA (the power with the strongest fortresses in the 21st century), its closest allies like the UK, as well as give the European power territory in Africa and the Middle East. Similar to the old Roman Empire.
The UK and EU are currently attempting to figure out how they will interact and trade in the future–but both sides have been taking positions that are quite distant from each other.
Ultimately, that will not end up well. That is covered in our first post-Brexit video:
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.
Here is a link to our video: Brexit Happened: Now What?
The EU has a ‘globalist’ agenda–and it wants to lead the world on many matters, including trade.
More on what will happen to the UK and its allies can be found in the article Anglo – America in Prophecy & the Lost Tribes of Israel. More about what will happen to some of the Islamically-dominated lands in Africa and the Middle East can be found in the article Is the Future King of the South Rising Up?
