Inflation is becoming more and more an issue in the West.
Notice the following:
Eurozone inflation jumps to record-high 10.7%
31 October 2022
Inflation reached 10.7% across the 19 countries that use the euro currency, a 40-year high.
Economists had previously forecast that inflation would top out at about 10.2%.
The inflation figure rose from 9.9% the month before, driven by an astronomical 41.9% rise in energy costs compared to last year, EU statistics office Eurostat said. Major increases in the cost of food were also a factor, rising at 13.1%.
Economic powerhouses Germany, France, and Italy were driving price increases the most, according to Eurostat. https://www.dw.com/en/eurozone-inflation-jumps-to-record-high-107/a-63604438
Here is an earlier inflation report related to the Baltic nations in Europe:
Record eurozone inflation: Which countries in Europe are being worst hit as energy prices soar?
Updated 08/07/22
Baltic countries remain especially affected, with Estonia experiencing inflation of 22.7 per cent, Lithuania 20.8 per cent, and Latvia 21 per cent. …
The prices of many commodities – crucially including food – have also been rising ever since COVID-19 pandemic lockdowns were first introduced two years ago, straining global supply chains, leaving crops to rot, and causing panic-buying in supermarkets.
The war in Ukraine again dramatically worsened the outlook, as Russia and Ukraine account for nearly a third of global wheat and barley, and two-thirds of the world’s exports of sunflower oil used for cooking. Ukraine is also the world’s fourth-biggest exporter of corn. https://www.euronews.com/next/2022/07/29/record-inflation-which-country-in-europe-has-been-worst-hit-and-how-do-they-compare
The official numbers in the Baltics are over 20%! That is a lot more than the 2% central bankers tend to shoot for.
Notice that the ride of third horseman of the Apocalypse results in scarcity, inflation, and famine. Revelation 6:5-6 indicates that there will be food, but that it will be quite expensive (food-price inflation).
5 When He opened the third seal, I heard the third living creature say, “Come and see.” So I looked, and behold, a black horse, and he who sat on it had a pair of scales in his hand. 6 And I heard a voice in the midst of the four living creatures saying, “A quart of wheat for a denarius, and three quarts of barley for a denarius; and do not harm the oil and the wine.” (Revelation 6:5-6)
Some will thus die as they will not be able to afford it, while others will survive but struggle.
Also, notice that wheat, barley, and edible oil is listed as shortages associated with the ride of the third horseman. Ukraine is a significant exporter of all of those–or at least is was:

Meanwhile global wheat prices have started to rise following Russia’s withdrawal from the Black Sea grain export deal last weekend.
Russia announced Saturday that it was suspending its involvement in the Black Sea Grain Initiative that was brokered in July and which allowed vital agricultural products to be exported from several Ukrainian ports. https://www.cnbc.com/2022/10/31/ukraines-forces-repel-brutal-russian-offensive-in-donetsk-wheat-prices-rise-after-grain-export-deal-stumbles.html
Related to some of this, the Continuing Church of God put together the following video on our Bible News Prophecy YouTube channel:
Did you know that the sanctioned lands of Russia and Belarus are dominant suppliers of ingredients used in modern fertilizers? Are you aware that the United Nations Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) estimates that 33% of the farmland in Ukraine may not be planted and/or harvested because of Russia’s ‘special military operation’ in Ukraine? Are parts of the world like Sudan, Lebanon, and the USA experiencing food price inflation? What about impact on the Palestinians in Gaza? Could any of this help lead to the rise of the King of the South? What are some factors that look to increase rice prices? Did Jesus warn of wars and troubles? What are three foods that Ukraine exports that are associated with the shortages and food price inflation of the ride of the third horseman of the Apocalypse? What does Jesus say His followers should do? Dr. Thiel addresses these matters in this video.
Here is a link to the video: Russia, Ukraine, Food, & the Ride of the 3rd Horseman of the Apocalypse.
There were inflation-related protests in several parts of Europe:
October 31, 2022
Western sanctions against Russia have been considered a powerful foreign policy tool by the US and the EU to paralyze Moscow back to the ‘stone age.’ Though sanctions against Moscow have entirely backfired, sparking the worst cost-of-living crisis for Europeans in a generation. …
Tens of thousands of people have marched across metro areas in France, Belgium, the Czech Republic, Hungary, and Germany — many of them are fed up with sanctions on Russia that have sparked economic ruins for many households and businesses …
@RadioGenovaThousands of Germans in Dresden to end sanctions on Russia, they want to remain neutral. Europeans don’t want to starve and freeze for Zelensky and Ursula von der Leyen. EU media censor these demonstrations, https://www.zerohedge.com/geopolitical/lets-get-out-nato-discontent-soars-across-europe-russian-sanctions-backfire
Thousands rally in Prague against pro-Western government
29 October 2022
Protesters have called for the Czech government to resign amid rising prices. …
Thousands of people took to the streets in the Czech capital on Friday to protest high prices, for which they blame the center-right government’s focus on supporting Ukraine against the Russian invasion.
The organizers of the “Czech Republic first” protest — a nod to former US President Donald Trump’s nationalist slogan — are a mixture of various, mostly far-right, fringe groups with pro-Kremlin and anti-vaccine tendencies.
The demonstration took place in Prague’s Wenceslas Square and coincided with the October 28 national holiday marking the formation of Czechoslovakia in 1918. https://www.dw.com/en/czech-republic-thousands-rally-in-prague-against-pro-western-government/a-63591590
October 27, 2022
A wave of protests triggered by rocketing living costs and a looming recession is sweeping across Europe, testing the resolve of governments that have so far maintained unity in their costly economic war with Russia. https://www.wsj.com/articles/discontent-rises-in-europe-as-economic-war-with-russia-pushes-up-cost-of-living-11666866806
Expect more protests and civil unrest in Europe.
Ultimately, Europe will reorganize and turn rule over to a dictatorial leader the Bible calls “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).
As far as inflation and money goes, the Continuing Church of God (CCOG) put together the following Bible News Prophecy video on our Bible News Prophecy YouTube channel, the audio portion of which was sent for broadcast on the European Gospel Radio station AM 1323 kHz last Monday 21:30-21:45 (9:30-9:45 PM) European Central Time:
Inflation: When Money Fails
Inflation has been higher in 2022 than it has been for decades in the USA, Europe, and many other lands. What are some of the disruptions that inflation can cause? What about hyperinflation affecting places like Venezuela? Did the Book of Haggai predict inflation? Is food price inflation associated with the ride of the third horseman of the Apocalypse? Does sin and government mismanagement cause inflation? Are there physical things one can do about inflation? What about storing food or buying gold? Will gold outlast the USA dollar? Why might some throw their gold in the street as Ezekiel prophesied? What should God’s people do about inflation? What did Jesus teach about food worries? What about seeking the Kingdom of God? Steve Dupuie and Dr. Thiel cover these matters.
Here is a link to our video: Inflation: When Money Fails.
Europe has its highest inflation rate since the euro was adopted.
The USA inflation rate, itself, is at a 41-year high.
Though the rate will likely dip for a time, do not be deceived, expect more food inflation. And yes, there will be more protests. And one day, relatively soon, Europe will reorganize and become something that the Bible warns against.
