Most Germans want Greece to remain in the Eurozone:
February 1, 2015
BERLIN—A majority of Germans favor Greece remaining in the eurozone despite its new leftist government in Athens rejecting austerity, a poll for newspaper Bild am Sonntag showed on Sunday.
Sixty-two percent favored Greece staying in the 19-country currency union, the survey of 504 people conducted on Thursday by polling group Emnid showed. Just 26 percent wanted Greece out of the euro.
The new government in Athens made clear from its first day in power last week that it would not back down on its election pledge to abandon the austerity policies imposed on Greece in a bailout program agreed by the last government.
New Greek Prime Minister Alexis Tsipras nevertheless rang European Central Bank President Mario Draghi on Friday night to assure him that Athens was seeking an accord, a government official said. http://www.voanews.com/content/poll-most-germans-want-greece-in-euro-zone/2623448.html
As I have written before, I expect Greece will ultimately support the ‘Beast of the sea’ of Revelation 13. The fact that most Germans still support having Greece in the Eurozone, despite Greece’s poor track record in repaying its debts to mainly Germany and the fact that Greece’s new government wants to renegotiate demonstrates that many in Germany are taking the longer view of the situation.
For Germany to dominate the world, it wants as large of a Eurozone as possible. Germany also expects that most nations that are not in the Eurozone, but are in the European Union (EU) will adopt the Euro at some time.
Because of concerns that the USA has about Russia, China, and the Islamic world, it has tended to support the European Union and its expansion. The USA, however, is doing so to its peril according to biblical prophecies (Ezekiel 23:4,9-10; Daniel 11:39).
How has the USA done this? On October 15, 2009 it was reported that Czech President Vaclav Klaus was the lone EU leader still opposed to the Lisbon Treaty (Waterfield B. Czech President Vaclav Klaus ‘to continue’ lone resistance to Lisbon Treaty. Telegraph, October 15, 2009. http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/worldnews/europe/czechrepublic/6329690/Czech-President-Vaclav-Klaus-to-continue-lone-resistance-to-Lisbon-Treaty.html). The Obama administration worked to get the Lisbon Treaty approved as President Obama “wants a strong and united Europe” (Source: Baldwin T, Reid T., Coates S. Obama Administration worried about Cameron effect in Europe. The Times, October 21, 2009. http://www.timesonline.co.uk/tol/news/politics/article6883075.ece#cid=OTC-RSS&attr=797093). On October 23, 2009, US Vice President Joseph Biden visited the Czech Republic and gave it security reassurances (U.S. foreign policy aware of threats – Havel after meeting Biden. CTK, October 23, 2009. http://www.ceskenoviny.cz/news/zpravy/u-s-foreign-policy-aware-of-threats-havel-after-meeting-biden/404375). This could have possibly had some limited influence on some of the Czech leadership, as the Lisbon Treaty was signed two weeks after that visit. On November 3, 2009, Agence France Presse (AFP) reported that USA President Barack Obama publicly expressed his support for the Czech President’s signing of the Lisbon Treaty and for now having a ’strengthened’ EU (Obama welcomes ‘strengthened’ EU. AFP, November 3, 2009. http://www.google.com/hostednews/afp/article/ALeqM5hJ8OzJSh0xfKow8z47RGCYQu1nsg)
The Obama Administration is supporting the rise of the European power.
The USA has also specifically encouraged Germany to support Greece economically. For example, The New York Times reported that on May 10, 2010, President Obama called German Chancellor Merkel and told her that Europe needed an overwhelming financial rescue for the sake of its unity, and she apparently heeded that suggestion. (Erlanger S, Benhold K, Sanger D. Debt Aid Package for Europe Took Nudge From Washington. The New York Times, May 10, 2010. (http://www.nytimes.com/2010/05/11/business/global/11reconstruct.html).
The Bible tells of a people who are not sure that they want to dominate, but will any way as it is in their heart:
5 “Woe to Assyria, the rod of My anger
And the staff in whose hand is My indignation.
6 I will send him against an ungodly nation,
And against the people of My wrath
I will give him charge,
To seize the spoil, to take the prey,
And to tread them down like the mire of the streets.
7 Yet he does not mean so,
Nor does his heart think so;
But it is in his heart to destroy,
And cut off not a few nations.
8 For he says,
‘Are not my princes altogether kings?
9 Is not Calno like Carchemish?
Is not Hamath like Arpad?
Is not Samaria like Damascus?
10 As my hand has found the kingdoms of the idols,
Whose carved images excelled those of Jerusalem and Samaria,
11 As I have done to Samaria and her idols,
Shall I not do also to Jerusalem and her idols?'” (Isaiah 10:5-11)
What is happening in Europe with Germany is a step towards this. Many in Germany/Central Europe are referred to prophetically as Assyria. Notice as the above shows, this ‘Assyrian’ power will cause military invasions–invasions will include the USA, which is sometimes prophetically referred to as Samaria in the Bible, which it is above. The Bible is clear that a European power will, for a time, dominate the world militarily (Revelation 13:1-4).
In other places, the Bible tells of a time when a European power will also dominate the world economically (Revelation 18). This means it is a time when the USA and its Anglo-Saxon descended allies will not be the dominant economic power.
A ‘new world order’ is in the process of being made, but it is not here yet. There will be problems in Europe (Daniel 2:41-43), but after some reorganizations it will arise (Revelation 17:12-13).

Must the Ten Kings of Revelation 17:12 Rule over Ten Currently Existing Nations? Some claim that these passages refer to a gathering of 10 currently existing nations together, while one group teaches that this is referring to 11 nations getting together. Is that what Revelation 17:12-13 refers to? The ramifications of misunderstanding this are enormous.
