Bible prophecy is written in a mysterious way. Only the omniscient God knew the end before the beginning. By the Spirit of God the prophets in the Old Testament and the apostles in the New Testament received revelations about the course of the history of mankind until the end of time.

The prophet Isaiah wrote about the last time period, when the Lord God has finished the work of Redemption with the Church and subsequently completes His work with Israel on Mount Zion in Jerusalem. Isaiah also spoke of the world ruler who holds everything in his hand and who thinks and says of himself, “By the strength of my hand I have done it, and by my wisdom; for I am prudent: and I have removed the bounds of the people, and have robbed their treasures, and I have put down the inhabitants like a valiant man.And my hand hath found as a nest the riches of the people: and as one gathereth eggs that are left, have I gathered all the earth; and there was none that moved the wing, or opened the mouth, or peeped.” (Isa. 10:13-14).

Who was the prophet referring to in this Scripture? Who fits that description? Who has the whole world in the palm of his hand? Who rules the earth? Where are the treasuries? Where are the priceless riches of the nations? The last four World Empires are known to us: the Babylonian, the Medo-Persian, the Greek, and since 63 B.C. the Roman World Empire. The objective was always the forcible conquest and reign of the world, which was also the driving force behind the last two World Wars. It is noteworthy that on that fateful day in 1935, when the Nazis held their party conference in Nürnberg, Hitler exclaimed, “And one faith to the whole world!” That is in the past now. There is no longer a Hitler, a Stalin, or a Mussolini. Border lines changed with each World War, but now the goal is the abolishment of the borders between the nations. Here in Europe we have been witnessing this development live since 1989. Thursday, November 9^th, 1989, is a day that not one of us will forget, when the borders between the two German states were opened. It was the beginning of the reunification of Germany. Back on March 19^th, 1962, Brother Branham had already said, “There’s been a Roman revival. Do you know what happens? If they give the eastern part of Berlin back, that puts Communism out and the Roman Empire, just exactly in the old circle it was in the time of Jesus. Certainly it does, perfectly.”

World Communism was defeated by world Catholicism and world capitalism put an end to the Utopia of world socialism. The two great powers USA and Soviet Union, which rose up with World War II and split the world into East and West, are no longer what they once were. All were taken by surprise, rulers were thrown from their thrones and no one said anything.

Now the “European Union”, presently comprised of 27 countries and 493 million inhabitants, is in all reality adopting its status as the world power. Just as declared in the Scriptures, the borders within the EU have disappeared. The covers of the new passports proudly display “EUROPEAN UNION” in capital letters. Whoever travels a lot knows how to appreciate that one can journey throughout Europe unhindered by borders and pay with the same currency almost everywhere.

However, there is more at stake here than just Europe: The matter at hand is “globalisation”, world trade, it is about oil, about energy, about the joint survival of the world community, but ultimately it is about power – about world domination. All religions and cultures shall be brought under a single patronage, so that eventually everything will lie in the hands of one authority. Only one central world power is not dependant upon oil resources or energy supply and is able to accommodate all sectors and fulfil the wish for peace and justice. Right now, in a time when the world is bleeding from a thousand wounds and the oil from the Gulf region is tainted with a lot of blood and millions of people are being severely affected, the longing for peace and safety is as great as never before. Meanwhile, the Middle East around Israel has become the main conflict area.

There are many Scriptures in which the actual world power of the end time and its central figure are described. Take notice of the comparison between the old Babylon at the time of Nebuchadnezzar and the Babylon of the end time: On one hand, the confusion of languages is still in existence as it was at the time of the construction of the tower of Babel, on the other hand, the process of communication and unification is in full swing.

In Jer. 51:7 we read, “Babylon hath been a golden cup in the Lord’s hand, that made all the earth drunken: the nations have drunken of her wine; therefore the nations are mad.” The Lord furthermore said, “Behold, I am against thee, O destroying mountain, saith the Lord, which destroyest all the earth.” (Jer. 51:25).

The prophet Daniel also spoke about the last world ruler, who holds everything in his hand. Both things are mentioned: the last World Empire and the last world ruler, “And the fourth kingdom shall be strong as iron: forasmuch as iron breaketh in pieces and subdueth all things: and as iron that breaketh all these, shall it break in pieces and bruise.” (Dan. 2:40). The peoples and nations do not stand a chance, they all must comply and submit themselves, for this is the divine instruction, “The fourth beast shall be the fourth kingdom upon earth, which shall be diverse from all kingdoms, and shall devour the whole earth, and shall tread it down, and break it in pieces.” (Dan. 7:23).

According to Bible prophecy there are seven heads and ten horns in this last World Empire. The seven leading heads assume the authority; they determine the direction, regardless of how many nations are included in the unification process. This is where the term “G7” applies; the eighth one is only attached pro forma. The ten horns are the states which disagree with the Western system, but out of necessity have to join without protest. Only on the day X will they butt with their horns and unload their anger and destroy the leading city in one hour, as it is written three times in Rev. 18, “… Alas, alas, that great city, that was clothed in fine linen, and purple, and scarlet, and decked with gold, and precious stones, and pearls! For in one hour so great riches is come to nought.” (verses 16-17).

Alas, all ways lead to Rome – not to Washington, not to Moscow, and not to Beijing. In the world capital of Rome all cultures, all religions, and even the global economy are all united in one hand, to finally bring the long-awaited peace on earth. All the nations of this world can be entangled in wars and civil wars, but not the Vatican state, for it only has the Swiss Guard, no tanks, no air force, no nuclear bomb. In the hour of temptation, which shall come upon the whole earth, this man enters the world stage as saviour and peace maker. Globalisation is to be the means to achieve peace and safety, culminating in a peace treaty over Jerusalem. There is only one institution which maintains diplomatic relationships with all the nations of the earth, only one man whom all the governments trust and who negotiates concordats or treaties, thereby ensuring his rights worldwide.

All heads of state, all religious leaders are going to Rome. We know the “Roman treaties”, the “European Constitution”, the “European Statute”, the “European World Court”, etc., which they all have to agree to and accept. Thus the world rulership indeed ends up in one single hand.

The prophet Daniel wrote the following about the last world ruler, who exerts his influence through all the religious and political institutions, “And his power shall be mighty, but not by his own power: and he shall destroy wonderfully, and shall prosper, and practise, and shall destroy the mighty and the holy people. And through his policy also he shall cause craft to prosper in his hand; and he shall magnify himself in his heart, and by peace shall destroy many: he shall also stand up against the Prince of princes; but he shall be broken without hand.” (Dan. 8:24-25; Isa. 11:4; 2. Thess. 2:9).
