Coalitions of the willing are Europe’s path to ever closer union
16 November 2025
If the US’s motto — “out of many, one” — sounds hopelessly aspirational in Trump’s divided America, the EU’s could be seen as an oxymoron. “United in diversity” clashes against the received wisdom that diversity is what prevents common solutions. Some may even say that fragmented rivalry was such a key to Europe’s past successes that it has become an ineradicable obstacle to further progress. But what if diversity is the road to unity, rather than a block to be overcome? We hear a lot about “coalitions of the willing” these days …
Coalitions of the willing, in deed if not in name, are emerging. Some EU expansions into new policy areas — notably “permanent structured co-operation” in defence — have been undertaken without full participation. Nineteen out of 27 countries have taken up the “Safe” scheme of common EU loans for jointly procured defence spending. https://www.ft.com/content/370fe0b4-6896-4f24-9787-eb68dec071fe

Yes, we are seeing many in Europe getting together militarily and economically.

Plus, the EU wants to expand. Foreign Minister Johann Wadephul is to travel to the Balkans to meet with six nations about being part of the EU (https://www.dw.com/en/germany-news-fm-wadephul-heads-for-western-balkans/live-74756416). Related to EU expansion, we put out the following video:

EU Enlargement of the Beast?
The European Union recently approved its “2025 Enlargement Package”. This means the European Union is continuing to give consideration for inclusion of other countries into its political, military, and economic bloc. Why would the European Union want to do this? The saying “Might makes Right” come to mind. Is it possible the inclusion of the population of other countries along with the increased population, trade, and economic clout would increase the might, of not only the European Union, but also power and economies of the nations being included? Has the growth of Europe, starting with the Benelux nations, already primarily expanded towards the south and the east such as is prophesied for the ‘little horn’ of Daniel 8? Does the EU want the rest of the Balkan nations, which are also basically south and east of Benelux, to be part of it? Will this new Union really be stronger in the long run? If new nations do join the European Union, will they remain joined? So, who cares if other nations join the European Union? Who cares if the EU will be stronger or not? Well, what if Biblical prophecies were being fulfilled? Would anyone care then? Would it matter to you if the European Union plays a major role in Biblical prophecy? What if the European Union was the sixth king of Rev 17:10 would you care then? What if Europe will reorganize and be controlled by the ‘666’ Beast? Would you be concerned? You should be. Here’s the link to our free eBook, “Lost Tribes and Prophecies”, offered in this video that offers much more information on the European Union, the King of the North, and the Beast of the Sea. If you don’t understand the role of the European Union in Bible prophecy, you need to watch this video. The European Union and the Beast of the Sea, listen as Dr. Thiel shines the light of Biblical prophecy on current world events. The time grows shorter.

Yes, the European Union wants to enlarge.

The future of the world is being shaped in Europe, says German Chancellor Friedrich Merz
16 November 2025
German Chancellor Friedrich Merz (CDU) on Saturday stressed Europe’s strategic importance, saying that the future of the world is being shaped on the continent.
Speaking to the German youth at the Young Union (Junge Union)’s Germany Day conference in Rust, Baden-Württemberg, Merz said this was not just about the European Union but the principles guiding the coexistence of people on the continent.
“The future of the world is created in Europe,” said Merz. “I would like to finalise this thought with you. What does that mean? We are not just looking at ourselves. We are not just looking at the European Union. We are looking at a political model. We are looking at a principle. We are looking at fundamental decisions on how we want to live together.”
Merz, however, stressed that the principles guiding the European Union model are not extinct amidst the growing challenge of authoritarian leadership.
In this European Union, we are distancing ourselves from dogmatic socialism and communism, from compartmentalised markets, and—according to Merz—”from an authoritarian style of leadership.”
“If we don’t get it right now, if we leave it to the nationalists to shape this Europe and basically abandon it, then one day we will have to be told that we have failed history.”
This European Union also distances itself from all those “who believe that they can guarantee the security and prosperity of their own people with closed markets.”
Merz also declared war on bureaucratisation: “That is precisely why I am so committed to keeping this European Union together. Not the way it works now, not with this over-bureaucratisation. This is not how the European single market was intended: a flood of regulations that basically only expresses mistrust towards citizens and companies.” https://www.euronews.com/2025/11/16/the-future-of-the-world-is-being-shaped-in-europe-says-german-chancellor-friedrich-merz

The European Union has not been pleased with the US, and yes it wants to lead the world.

Plus, it has moving towards a new world order without US leadership.

Notice something from this past Spring:

‘The West as we knew it no longer exists,’ von der Leyen says amid Trump tensions
16 April 2025
“The West as we knew it no longer exists,” Ursula von der Leyen has declared amid rapidly deteriorating relations with the United States under Donald Trump’s administration, which has forced Europe to look elsewhere for allies and partners. …

Asked if America was a friend, a former friend or an opponent, the Commission chief avoided “these kinds of classifications” while admitting the relation was “complicated”. …

“Europe is still a peace project. …, there are twelve countries on the waiting list to become members of the European Union. That’s about 150 million people,” she said, referring to the accession process. … https://www.euronews.com/my-europe/2025/04/16/the-west-as-we-knew-it-no-longer-exists-von-der-leyen-says-amid-trump-tensions

World wants more trade with Europe since Trump-driven uncertainty, von der Leyen says
Commission president says Europe is “wide awake” to possibilities of “new world order.”
European Commission chief Ursula von der Leyen has noted “a positive side effect” of the tariff uncertainty created by United States President Donald Trump: More world leaders want to do trade deals with the EU.
“I am currently having countless talks with heads of state and government around the world who want to work together with us on the new order,” von der Leyen said in an interview on Tuesday with German newspaper Die Zeit.
“Everyone is asking for more trade with Europe — and it’s not just about economic ties. It is also about establishing common rules and it is about predictability,” she said, adding: “Europe can deliver that.” …
According to the Commission president, Europe is “wide awake” and has the opportunity to play “a strong role in the new world order that is slowly emerging.” 04/15/25 https://www.politico.eu/article/everyone-wants-more-trade-with-europe-amid-trump-tariff-uncertainty-says-von-der-leyen/

Europe wants to lead a coming new world order and, frankly, it wants the United States out of the way.

March 24, 2025
“A New World Order With European Values.” Emblazoned across banners and signs, those words met the participants at … the World Forum in Berlin. …
The very notion of a “New World Order” is chilling to many who oppose the rise of a globalist class with the rise of transnational governance in the European Union and beyond. …

given the current laws limiting political speech, a “New World Order Based on European Values” is hardly an inviting prospect for those who believe in robust democratic and free speech values. https://www.zerohedge.com/geopolitical/new-world-order-european-values-unholy-union-globalism-and-anti-free-speech-measures

Well, a European “new world order” that will not be democratic will be put in place–and despite Chancellor Merz’s hopes, it WILL be authoritarian (which can be an effective way to reduce bureaucracy).

How will that happen?

Well, for one, the EU is making trade deals all over the world as more nations are contacting it to do so because of US tariffs and tariff threats.

As far as Europe establishing that new order militarily, here are some scriptures and comments in my my latest book available at Amazon Kindle: Unintended Consequences and Donald Trump’s Presidency: Is Donald Trump Fulfilling Biblical, Islamic, Greco-Roman Catholic, Buddhist, and other America-Related Prophecies? as well as Amazon print Unintended Consequences and Donald Trump’s Presidency: Is Donald Trump Fulfilling Biblical, Islamic, Greco-Roman Catholic, Buddhist, and other America-Related Prophecies?:

Daniel 11 … 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.
The “he” is the King of the North. The two Hebrew words translated as “the strongest fortresses” in verse 39 do not appear together anywhere else in the Bible.
Something is, thus, unique here. Notice another translation which is similar:
39 Claiming this foreign god’s help, he will attack the strongest fortresses. He will honor those who submit to him, appointing them to positions of authority and dividing the land among them as their reward. (Daniel 11:39, New Living Translation, 2007)
Who has the strongest fortresses?
Looking further down in this chapter in Daniel, we must eliminate the King of the South, because that King is not attacked until later (the next verse). We must also eliminate those in the North and East, as they do not get involved until later (verse 44).
Neither the rest of Africa nor Latin America has anything resembling “the strongest fortresses.” The strongest fortresses belong to the United States, and to a much lesser degree, its English-speaking allies. Thus, in current times, Daniel 11:39 looks to be describing when the Anglo-English-American nations are being destroyed. Some might refer to this as WWIII.
Once the USA and the other ‘Five Eyes’ are out of the way, the King of the North will likely declare that a new world order of peace has been ushered in. That is consistent with Jeremiah 6:14–15a, which is a warning about peace statements from one associated with abomination. …
Divided with Whom?
As far as lands being divided by this leader goes, it is likely that Mexico will regain at least some of the lands it had ceded to the USA. It would seem like Russia would end up with at least part of Alaska and perhaps part of Canada. The Irish would be expected to control Northern Ireland (and perhaps other lands controlled by the United Kingdom). Some Mexicans, Russians, and Irish have called for this.
Because of USA debts, a Russian professor named Igor Panarin predicted that the Europeans, Russians, Mexicans, Japanese, and Chinese may end up dividing the land of the USA in the 21st century. …
The Bible, itself, teaches that the Assyrians will be used to punish “an hypocritical nation” (or hypocritical people, as the Hebrew can be translated as is done in Bishops’ Bible of 1568) that refuses to repent:
5 O Assyrian, the rod of mine anger, and the staff in their hand is mine indignation. 6 I will send him against an hypocritical nation (Isaiah 10:5–6, KJV).
1 … Israel … 3 … Ephraim 5 … the Assyrian shall be his king, Because they refused to repent. (Hosea 11:1,3,5)
Christians all need to recall that when Jesus came, He clearly condemned the hypocritical religious leaders of His day (e.g. Luke 11:44), more directly than he condemned the physically more obvious sinners (Matthew 9:10–13).
This is not to say that non-Anglo-Saxon-Celtic nations do not have sin or that they will not be punished. The European Assyrians will clearly also be punished, per Isaiah 10:12-19, but the punishment will begin first on those who should have known better. That is, the punishment will begin on those who have claimed to live rightly, but have repeatedly failed to do so. Those who were the people of the covenant with Israel should have striven to be faithful. Those who receive biblical blessings should not be surprised when they receive biblical curses for disobedience (cf. Deuteronomy 28:1-68).
While the gospel warning message will be made fairly clear to the English-speaking peoples by the “Philadelphia Christians,” prior to Daniel 11:39, because the British-American nations are not likely to heed that warning, they will have to answer for their relative lack of response (cf. Ezekiel 33:7-9) and their survivors will be taken captive (cf. Habakkuk 2:7). …
Yet, instead of being worried about this coming Beast power, the USA and some of the other British-descended powers, seem to be encouraging the development of a major power in Europe.[i] This is something that the British-American peoples will come to later regret. …
The Book of Revelation teaches:
8 All who dwell on the earth will worship him, whose names have not been written in the Book of Life of the Lamb slain from the foundation of the world. (Revelation 13:8)
The “him” above is the Babylonian European Beast.
The “prince of the power of the air” (Ephesians 2:2) has worked to set the stage for this Beast to have secular and religious supporters of various types.
Secular organizations such as the World Economic Forum (WEF),[ii] United Nations,[iii] and the Bilderberg Group[iv] all support a type of an ecumenical-interfaith-merged religion, allowing for certain differences, yet possibly writing their own holy book with artificial intelligence! [v] They all promote what could be called a ‘globalist’ agenda, consistent with biblical prophecies (e.g. Revelation 17:1-5).
The European Union does as well, however, its view is that Europe should lead a coming “new world order.”[vi]
An unintended consequence of Donald Trump is that his presence has tended to push various globalist groups closer together. This will not stop with him as 47th President of the USA. …
By not appreciating warnings contained in biblical prophecies, many are pushing in a direction that will end in death and destruction that the Bible says to flee from (cf. Revelation 18:2-19).

The Europeans have long wanted to run the world.

Now, with policies and statements from Donald Trump and his Administration, the top leaders in Europe are speaking out publicly about their desire for a new world order that they wish to lead.

While Europe is not yet the Beast of Revelation 13:3-10, its leaders are taking steps towards that.

After more than 80 years, Germany once again has a Führer who is in no way inferior to the old one in terms of mendacity and megalomania … Friedrich Merz … 03/23/25 https://www.zerohedge.com/geopolitical/fuhrer-germany-friedrich-merz-war-spending-frenzy
Friedrich Merz: The man Europe has been waiting for
Friedrich Merz, Germany’s new chancellor, …
Mr Merz has ushered in a paradigm shift already.
This is most pronounced on defence and security, with Germany now poised to take on unprecedented amounts of debt to help rebuild its military and the wider European arms industry. … “Germany is back,” Mr Merz declared …
“It is a clear, strong and clear signal to our citizens, and to Europe, that Germany is getting a strong and capable government.”” (https://www.yahoo.com/news/friedrich-merz-man-europe-waiting-161655776.html).

While I do NOT believe that Germany’s Friedrich Merz is like Führer Adolf Hitler, the Bible points to a reorganization coming to Europe that will result in a dictator:

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)

Europe will reorganize.

The European new world order will be militaristic (Revelation 13:3-4), brutal (Revelation 13:15), with totalitarian controls (Revelation 13:16-18):

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?”
5 And he was given a mouth speaking great things and blasphemies, and he was given authority to continue for forty-two months. (Revelation 13:3-5)
15 He was granted power to give breath to the image of the beast, that the image of the beast should both speak and cause as many as would not worship the image of the beast to be killed. 16 He causes all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and slave, to receive a mark on their right hand or on their foreheads, 17 and that no one may buy or sell except one who has the mark or the name of the beast, or the number of his name.
18 Here is wisdom. Let him who has understanding calculate the number of the beast, for it is the number of a man: His number is 666. (Revelation 13:15-18)

The so-called ‘Holy Roman Empire’ was mortally wounded, but has began to rise again in Europe (see also The European Union and the Seven Kings of Revelation 17).

There will be a new world order.

It will be led by someone worse than the Führer called Adolf Hitler.

Pushing Europe towards it being militaristic is one of the many unintended consequences of the Trump-Vance Administration.

Europe wants to lead a new world order
Many political analysts are commenting on the total melt down of the European Union. Many feel Europe has lost all power, wealth and influence in the world. Is Europe really dead? Will it crumble and fall apart into separate countries as some say? How does Europe feel about its future. Do they have the same feelings as many political analysts? Or does Europe feel confident about its future? In fact, is it even possible that Europe feels so confident about its future that it feels it is ready to take the lead in developing a “new world order,” with Europe as the central power? Listen as Dr. Thiel sheds the light of Biblical Prophecy on the mortal head wound of Rev 13:3. Could that mortal wound relate to Europe? If so, how? What about Europe’s relationship with the United States. Does Europe still consider the USA a friend and ally? Learn what Europe and its new allies do to the United States and the “Five Eyes”! Dan 11:39 he shall cause them to rule over many, and divide the land for gain – Who rules over many? Who divides the land for gain? What land do they divide? The time is at hand!

Here is a link to our video: Europe wants to lead a new world order.

A new world order is in the process of being formed.

It will not be nice, but according to biblical prophecies, it will be led by a European dictator until Jesus returns (Revelation 17:12-13).

Remember that “he who endures to the end shall be saved” (Matthew 24:13) and pray for God’s kingdom to come (Matthew 6:10).
