CGCG: King of the North and King of the South
The above poster was produced by the Europeans over a decade ago. It may be of interest to note that the above inverted stars are pentagrams, a satanic symbol. The poster tower was based upon a painting of the Tower of Babel by a European, called Pieter Brueghel the Elder, in 1563 .
In his December 13, 2007 newsletter, CBCG’s Fred Coulter wrote the following:
The King of the North and the King of the South: With each new crisis—be it monetary, war or crime related, or a natural disaster—we wonder, “When will the end come? How much time do we have left?” We need to realize that there are many things which must yet appear on the “prophecy stage,” so to speak, before the final events of the end times can unfold and the Great Tribulation can begin. One thing is certain, the Tribulation cannot begin by Passover 2008…
Perhaps the two most important end time events to watch for are the rise of the “King of the North” and the rise of the “King of the South”—because the Great Tribulation cannot begin until they first come on the scene. God inspired the prophet Daniel to write: “And at the time of the end shall the king of the south push at him: and the king of the north shall come against him like a whirlwind, with chariots, and with horsemen, and with many ships; and he shall enter into the countries, and shall overflow and pass over. He shall enter also into the glorious land, and many countries shall be overthrown: but these shall escape out of his hand, even Edom, and Moab, and the chief of the children of Ammon. He shall stretch forth his hand also upon the countries: and the land of Egypt shall not escape” (Dan. 11:40-42).
These prophecies clearly tell us that at the time of the end there will be a “King of the North” and a “King of the South” on the geopolitical “prophetic stage.” They are not yet on the horizon. However, there are numerous visible indications that the way for the “King of the North” is almost complete. We must also watch for a succession in leadership before the final “King of the North” comes to power.
With the continuing development of the European Union, we can readily see that the political power base has already been established for the “King of the North.” As this development progresses, we will ultimately see the United Kingdom fully absorbed into the Union through the ratification of an EU constitution. Several years ago, the EU failed to get a new European constitution approved by the voters of the 12 key member nations. Since then, however, the EU has completed a treaty which contains nearly the same wording as the previously rejected constitution.
Unlike the previous treaty, the new constitution requires the approval of only the parliaments of the twelve nations. A majority vote by the people is irrelevant.
Another important feature of this new treaty is that once it has been ratified by the various governments, it becomes the binding law of the land for each country—over and above their national laws and constitutions. This means that since the UK’s parliament has approved the treaty and signed it into law, the UK will be absorbed into the EU. Officially, this transfer is scheduled to take place in January 2009. Watch for her sovereignty as an independent nation to begin to be eroded away until the UK and all the countries of Europe are completely subject to the dictates of the EU!…
The Coming Union of Islamic Nations: This same pattern is being used to set up other “regional unions” of nations in the world. It is a little-known fact that the seven-member “Gulf Cooperation Counsel” (GCC) was initially established in 1981 by Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, Bahrain, Oman, Yemen, Qatar and the United Arab Emirates. In 1991, after Saddam Hussein invaded Kuwait, the GCC invited the U.S. to send their armed forces to liberate Kuwait. They also requested that the U.S. not go into Iraq to fully conquer the country. Thus, the second Iraq war followed in 2003.
In addition to the GCC, the Greater Arab Free Trade Agreement (GAFTA) was ratified in 1997 and implemented in 1998 by the following 17 Islamic nations: Bahrain, Egypt, Iraq, Jordan, Kuwait, Lebanon, Libya, Morocco, Oman, Palestine, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, Sudan, Syria, Tunisia, United Arab Emirates and Yemen. Notice that the original seven GCC nations are included. When GAFTA becomes more fully developed, it will undoubtedly include all Islamic nations in the Middle East and North Africa. Perhaps it will eventually include Pakistan and Afghanistan as cooperating Islamic nations.
This union will, in turn, become the foundational power base for the “King of the South.” Now we can understand why the second Gulf war in Iraq is being fought. With Saddam Hussein having been eliminated as a threat to the GCC nations—and with success in the Iraq war—the way will be open for Islamic nations to form a prosperous “Pan-Arab Union” through GAFTA. With key components in place, we can now see how the political and territorial foundation for the “King of the South” will come together.
“Vientiane, Laos: China and the Association of the Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) are expected to make substantial progress in advancing Free Trade Areas(FTAs) at their summit to be held here…[and] a three-way meeting between China, Japan and the Republic of Korea [which probably laid the groundwork for greater cooperation between the three, as well as for a separate future FTA between them]…. Wen will witness the signing of all agreements.”
More Regional Unions of Nations: In addition to the development of the “regional unions” of nations for the “King of the North” and the “King of the South,” other regional alliances are being developed through trade agreements and treaties.

CBCG is correct that the end will not start by Passover in 2008. For that matter, the the Great Tribulation will not begin in 2008 nor 2009 (please see news post Great Tribulation Will Not Begin in 2008).
