THE EEC -
THE UNITED KINGDOM
AND KING CHARLES III
-THE EIGHTH KING OF HOLY ROMAN EMPIRE?
One Throne Two Pretenders
The current formation of the European system has some ancient Church prophecies concerning it. This will have some strange results for many people over the next three decades. One of them concerns the monarchy of both the United Kingdom and the other nations of Europe.
One Throne Two Pretenders:
Much has been written of the coming United States of Europe and the amalgamation of nations that it entails. Beneath the surface of the integration both political and economic, there are many forces working hard to achieve a unification of the system, not only politically, but also religiously, on historical lines.
Europe sees this emergence as the fulfillment of a long established destiny, a revival of the greatness that was once Europe, but not a divided Europe. The vision of Europe is one that extends from the Atlantic to Russia (and for some, even to the Urals). This united Europe is seen as essentially grouped around 'Middle Europe'.
This unification has been seen historically as a religious unification of the Catholic Church and as a restoration of a monarchical structure, around a 'Great Emperor' or Great Monarch who will rule over Europe, as the civil sword complementing the Ecclesiastical Sword of Rome.
Many have looked to the Hapsburgs as the inheritors of this European throne and indeed they are legitimate pretenders to such a throne. The Hapsburgs have been working towards a united Europe and it may be safely said that they see themselves as the natural heirs and successors to the throne in fulfillment of the ancient prophecies.
They are however, not the only pretenders to the throne and there is another house which equally fulfils the prophecies, (or even more so) and for sheer political pragmatism, may supersede the Hapsburgs in their claims to the throne of Europe.
The personality who may claim this honour is Charles, Prince of Wales; Duke of Cornwall of the House of Windsor. The House of Windsor is in fact a Royal fiction being invented to obviate anti-German sentiment. Charles’ Great Grandfather George V had assumed the name Windsor as a sound English name, arising from the discovery that Edward III had called himself Edward of Windsor (Robert Lacey, Majesty p. 124, BCA, London 1977).
From George 1 to William IV the Kings of England were clearly members of the House of Hanover. When Victoria, the niece of William IV came to the throne and married Prince Albert, the matter of a correct nomenclature was more complicated. Prince Albert had two names, his family name, Wettin and his House name of Saxe-Coburg-Gotha, both attributed as German, and Victoria and Albert’s descendants bore his names.
George V was therefore of the Houses of Hanover and Saxe-Coburg-Gotha. He was to marry Mary, Princess of the House of Teck and he was related to the highest German nobility. His Court was full of naturalised cousins from Germany and Denmark, bearing names like Gleichen, Schleswig-Holstein and Battenburg.
The great camouflage operation that went on prior to 1939, saw Saxe-Coburg-Gotha become the House of Windsor. The Battenbergs became Mountbatten, the Tecks became Cambridges and Count Gleichen for some reason became just Lord Gleichen and as Lacey says, 'The Schleswig-Holsteins solved the problem by dying out.' (ibid). These were elderly princesses who became known as Helena Victoria and Mary Louise of no house, until they died.
Lacey says that: the Kaiser for once had the last word. When he heard of these contortions by his relatives, he remarked that he was looking forward to the next performance of the Merry Wives of Saxe-Coburg-Gotha. (ibid).
Lord Louis Mountbatten was the son of German born Louis Battenburg, grandson of Queen Victoria, who became First Lord of the Admiralty at the outbreak of the First World War. Even though Louis Battenburg had won his rank on merit, after forty-six years of distinguished service with the Royal Navy, he was compelled to resign three months after hostilities started with Germany in 1914, because of public outcry over his German origins. The Royal family suffered even more bitter attacks. Lord Louis Mountbatten like George VI was one of the great grand-children of Queen Victoria. His uncle was Czar Nicholas II (He was called Dickie ostensibly as a differentiation from Nicky, (Uncle Nicky) for Nicholas was his last name).
Elizabeth II, daughter of George VI is legitimately Duchess of Saxe-Coburg-Gotha, as well as heir to the line of the English kings. Charles inherits not only these lines and claims, but from his father he inherits other indirect and even 'bluer' lineages.
Prince Phillip of Greece technically had no Greek blood in his veins, he was of the Danish Royal House of Schleswig-Holstein-Sonderburg-Glucksburg. This family has held sway through eighteen kings of Denmark and has supplied one king to Norway, four to Sweden, six to Greece, seven czars to Russia and at the same time provided Queen consorts for the kings of Britain, Germany and Rumania.
Prince Phillip’s cousin was Queen Alexandria of Yugoslavia. His long and impressive pedigree digresses to include figures of legend such as Henry Percy (or Henry Hotspur), Earl of Northumberland and traces itself back to Charlemagne.
The English Royal lineage claims, from Edward III, interest in the French domains on the death of Charles IV in 1328, but through circumstance lost the initiative to Phillip of Valois who was crowned Phillip VI. In 1337 Phillip declared Gascony confiscate and in October of that year Edward formally claimed the French Crown and quartered those arms with his, thus beginning the 100 years war. As France was the more ancient kingdom, the Lilies known as France Ancient were marshaled first and fourth; and the Leopards of England second and third (see Figure 1). The Coats of Arms in France were changed from France Ancient to the three Fleur de Lys, known as France Modern either by Charles V in 1376 or as late as 1394. It was not until Henry IV ascended the throne of England in 1399 that the Royal Arms were changed in conformity. His first seal was merely that of his predecessor, but the second Great Seal cut in about 1406, shows France Modern and England Quarterly. (Rodney Dennys, Heraldry and the Heralds, p.100, Cope, London, 1982).
The claims to France came through Edward III whose mother was Isabella, daughter of Phillip IV (1285-314) and sister to Kings Louis X (1314-16), Phillip V (1316-22) and Charles IV (1322-28).
Edward married Philippa of Hainault, daughter of William of Hainault and Jeanne, daughter of Charles of Valois and grand-daughter of Phillip III of France, giving further claim to the Lilies of France.
This very ancient symbol goes back before chivalry to an early period, being found in Ancient Egypt, where it was a symbol of Life and Resurrection. It was used by the Byzantine Emperors and by the Romans and hence into Europe, where the Carolingian Kings used it as a decorative motif on sceptres and coins. It became associated with French kings of note appearing on the Great Seals of Henry I (1031-60) and Louis VII, and they appear, as the Arms of the King of France on the Great Seal of Louis VIII in 1223. Before 1300 it was known as 'Fleur de Glaieul,' as the white lily or lis was regarded as the special flower of the Virgin Mary. They became synonymous from the early middle age legend, which held that King Clovis was given a Fleur de Lys at his baptism by an angel sent to him from God. (ibid., p.98). (This seal and symbol was different to the French Oriflamme, a red banner which also displays this sacred emblem). The Battle of Agincourt fought on 25 October 1415, was the last occasion on which the Oriflamme was displayed in battle. The Lilies are thus a sacred emblem of the Roman and Holy Roman Empires and feature, predominantly in prophecy regarding the Last Great Monarch.
Piecing together these legends of Catholic prophecy which spread from before 236 AD3 we can develop a picture of whom history suggests is expected. (A summary of those prophecies is found in Prophecy For Today, chapter 5, p.31, Fresno 1956. Hippolytus (d.235) wrote 'The Great French Monarch who shall subject all the East shall come around the end of the world'.
Catelados of Tarentino (c.500) expects him to be in the services until he is forty years of age and a King of the House of Lily. He will conquer England and other island empires. He will occupy Greece and be made king thereof. He will subdue Clochis, Cyprus, the Turks and barbarians, subduing and having all men worshipping the 'Crucified One'. He will at length lay down his crown in Jerusalem.
Many things are claimed for this prince, some no doubt misunderstandings of the nature of the world as it is today and some just wild guesses.
There is no doubt that the Great Monarch is expected to assist the Pope, in the subjugation of the whole earth from a European base. This prince shall be instrumental in healing the schism of the Catholic Church. At present there are three branches of the Catholic Church, the Roman Church, the Anglican Church and the Orthodox sects of the Athanasian Catholic faction.
These writers have included Caesar of Arles (469-543), and the Blessed Rabanus Maurus (d.856) is quoted as 'Our principal doctors agree in announcing to us that towards the end of time one of the descendants of the Kings of France shall reign over all the Roman Empire; and that he shall be the greatest of the French Monarchs and the last of his race'. These eminent doctors understand him to lay down his crown and sceptre in Jerusalem also when this will signify the end of the Roman and Christian Empires.
This is repeated by Monk Adso (d.992), who states that 'This will be the end and consummation of the Empire of Rome and immediately afterwards Antichrist will come'.
The Chronicle of Magdeburg (12th century?) is quoted 'Of the blood of the Emperor Charles the Great and the King of France shall arise as Emperor named Charles who shall rule imperially in Europe, by whom the decayed estate of the Church shall be reformed and the ancient glory of the Empire again restored.'
Aystinger - the German (also in the 12th century) places this prince in the last times, who is sprung from the Emperor Charles. He is to recover the land of promise, i.e. the promised land Jerusalem, and reform the church as Emperor of Europe.
Abbot 'Merlin' Joachim (d.1202) attributes this recovery of the power and state of the church to the Pope of the last days, who will recover Jerusalem and reunite the exiled temporal powers and the Eastern and Western church. This pope is expected to be bowed to by the highest potentates and crush religious schism and heresy. (In other words, to reintroduce the Inquisition, now the Sacred Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith).
This Pope is expected to place this scion of King Repin on a temporal throne which becomes vacant (or available). However this writer is obviously referring to activities at the beginning of this century from the anecdote of the 'Angelic Pastors' referred to by Malachi in his writings of the 12th century.
According to Werdin d’Otrante (13th century) the Great Monarch and the Great Pope will precede Antichrist.
The nations will be in wars for four years and a great part of the world will be destroyed. All the sects will vanish (no doubt ably assisted by the Holy Office). This writer has the European system under the Pope and the civil ruler going overseas to battle the Antichrist (which they win). (This is dated by coinciding feasts at 2038 which appears to contradict biblical prophecy and be too late).
This theme is developed on through writers such as Brother John of the Cleft Rock (1340); and Catherine of Racconigi (1547). Telesphorus of Cozensa (d.1588) does not understand the end European unity and is undoubtedly wrong.
Holzhauser (d.1658) gives a most telling description of the seemingly miraculous restoration of the church and State, after the seeming demise of the Catholic Church and the monarchies are abolished and their rulers murdered.
The King is to be Catholic, a descendant of Louis IX (1214-1270) (yet) a descendant of an ancient Imperial German family, born in exile (i.e. not born in Germany). He is to rule supreme in temporal matters. The Pope will rule supreme in spiritual matters at the same time. Persecution will cease and justice shall reign (for the Catholic Church). Religion seems to be oppressed, but by the changes of entire kingdoms, it will be made firmer.
He will root out false doctrines and destroy the rule of Moslemism. This great Monarch will have supernatural assistance and will be unconquerable. The time is divided into epochs with the Fifth epoch dating from Charles V, until the reign of the Great Monarch and the Sixth epoch from the rule of the Great Monarch until Antichrist. (This figure they term Antichrist is an iconoclastic Sabbath-keeping power who teaches contrary to the Roman Church and hence in their view Antichrist). He in fact does all that Christ says he would do. The term, Antichrist, appears to relate to two figures disclosed in biblical prophecy; the Danite Antichrist (the Prophet of Dan-Ephraim at Jeremiah 4:15 cf. the paper The Warning of the Last Days (No. 44) and the world ruler proper or the Messiah.) Rudolf Gekner (d.1675) states that this expected figure is a great prince of the North. Father Larinsky (d.l708) identifies these events after the partitioning of Germany.
Fr. Laurence Ricci SJ (d.1775) places this time 'After the rule of Napoleon and after wars, famines and pestilences,' where 'a valiant duke will arise from the ancient German House which was humiliated by the French Monarch.' He will restore church property, Protestantism will cease and the Turkish (or Moslem) Empire will end.
Josepha von Bourg (d.l807) says God will choose a descendant of Constantine, Pepin and St Louis who has been tried by a long period of disappointment to come from exile to rule over Europe, etc.
Abbe Souffranid (d.1828) attributes miraculous actions and production in overabundance. Between the cries everything is lost and everything is saved, there will be scarcely any interval. This miraculous recovery has already occurred in Europe and there will be yet more to come.
Brother Louis Rocco (d.184O) states that this Great Monarch will NOT be German. ‘
The Venerable Magdalene Parzat (d.185O) used metaphore to illustrate the rise of this Emperor and Pontiff who shall rule the world, (It shall serve the ox’s neck), the French Republic (and those revolutionary republics stemming from them?) and restore the monarchy.
According to Rev. Theophilus Reisenger, OM cap (d.194O) the Great Monarch was destined to have been Archduke Franz Ferdinand. He claims that the reign of Antichrist was postponed and hence also that of the Great Monarch. Clearly this tradition has been held in Europe for some 1750 years, or as long as the Athanasian or Catholic Church has been in existence.
The overwhelming theme is of a great restoration of the Monarchy and Church over a united Europe, under one Catholic Church and Pope. This will be accompanied by a general suppression of non-Catholics. The unification of the churches is a recurrent theme.
The House of Hapsburg-Lorraine or the Hapsburgs, have been traditionally seen as the rulers to be 'called upon in this last European Empire. Whilst this may be so it is not certain that they are the only contenders.
As has been pointed out, the present Prince of Wales satisfies all of the criteria. The Saxons and Goths were outside of the German system being part of Scandinavia, until the Goths moved into Europe as the Ostrogoths and Visigoths, with the residue in Gothe or Gotha. The Saxons were never part of the German people, until Charlemagne defeated them and incorporated them into the German Confederation, as part of the Holy Roman Empire in 771-2 and conquered their brothers, the Lombards in 773-4. There is thus some doubt about the German classification of the Saxons of Schleswig-Holstein. However, the world classifies these people as German and the Houses of Hanover and Saxe-Coburg-Gotha qualify in terms of the prophecies. Certainly the Royal Houses of Germany and England were related and there is no question of the French relationship to the English throne, probably more so than is present with France and Austro-Hungary.
From the union of England and Scotland in 1707, the heir carries, as heir to the united crowns, from the moment of his birth, the titles: Duke of Rothesay, Earl of Carrick, Baron Renfrew and Seneschal or Steward of Scotland, being carried by the heirs of Scotland since 1396.
The title, Prince of Wales, was created by Royal Charter on 24 March 1305 and replaced the ancient Anglo-Saxon title of Atheling. The Prince of Wales carried from ancient times, the second title also of Duke of Normandy from the Normandy annexation and thirdly in rank from the charter of 18 May 1332 the heir carries the title Earl of Chester. Duke of Cornwall is second in rank but third in antiquity from the Charter of 17 March 1336, being the first precedent of the creation of a Duke in England, being derived from the ancient Roman title of Dux (from Duco). There were 12 Duces having charge of the Western Empire of the Romans.
The Duchy of Cornwall, given to the Prince of Wales, was the first modern restoration of the ancient Roman title of the War Duke, which had fallen in rank and use. (Alan of Britane which was considered the most ancient hereditary Dukedom, was more often called Comes than Dux, as were his successors until the French King Phillip in 1277 bestowed the title of Duke on that family).
Charles, as heir also to the United Kingdom of Britain and Ireland carries, legitimate rights to enormous areas of the Ancient Roman and Holy Roman Empire.
Politically the move has some alarming implications. The Crown as head of the Church of England, has to be won to amalgamate the Anglican Catholic and Roman Catholic factions and such amalgamation would have to occur to enable the Orthodox assimilation. It is easier for the European community to accept a Monarch who has some claims on the thrones of many of the countries such as Greece and are near in kin to others throughout Europe.
Should Elizabeth II abdicate, as there once was mounting pressure for her to do, then there are indications that Charles would be much more sympathetic to the Catholic cause, as his trip to Rome indicated. His later proclamation of himself as Defender of Faith in general carried mixed meaning. It was only the Queen that stopped his celebration of Mass with the Pope.
Should he be appointed whilst Elizabeth is still Queen, then he would be senior to her and in an invidious position. The move has enormous political consequence. Should Britain secede, what legal position does either have if her Sovereign, or even Prince of Wales, is Emperor of Europe?
Technically the British Empire would owe allegiance to the Throne of Europe and this would force the Empire into declaring themselves Republics.
Countries like Australia would then be in technical breach of the requirements of fealty, as required by the even more ancient lineage that the King possesses in holding the Throne of David. As Australia’s constitution is an instrument of the British Parliament, then its independence may be challenged. Dominions like Canada would be in an even more invidious position. Canada would technically be a Dominion of Europe and her declaration of a Republic could be treated as rebellion. The U.S. would then be surrounded by Catholic nations.
Certainly a British Monarch on the throne of Europe, renders the legality of British secession suspect indeed. This is not the first time that the European system has toyed with this idea. Hitler tried to have Edward VIII in European custody and had he succeeded through Wallis Simpson, then the will and morale of the English people would have been severely damaged.
The aims of many Europeans (and the Prieure de Sion) however, have been working towards the United States of Europe, under the Hapsburgs and the so-called Merovingian Line of kings, with a Roman Catholic centre.
Whilst these, people want a Hapsburg on the throne, circumstance and political unification may well seek to encourage the hopes of another pretender for the European throne, under the watchful direction of the European Parliament.
We would expect to see more pressure on the Queen to abdicate as time goes on, with a possible amalgamation of churches continuing behind the scenes.
For this Charles, Europe indeed 'may be worth a Mass.' Charles Phillip Arthur George is aptly named for this task. The Kings or heads of Cornwall and Wales carried the title Dragon and the heraldic symbol was a red dragon. He carries the lilies as Phillip, a prominent name of the French Line. He would fulfil the Arthurian legend of the once and future king becoming not only the Pendragon (or High King) of Britain, but of Europe under the revived Roman system and combine Western and Eastern Rome, as the last George of the Hellenes.
The re-establishment of this last kingdom of the Francs as the Holy Roman Empire is incompatible with the destiny of Israel.
This is the event spoken of by the prophet Ezekiel at chapter 21:26-27 concerning the cessation of the monarchy of Israel, after it was overturned three times. For after the removal to the Isles by Jeremiah and its overturning again there from Ireland to Scotland and from Scotland to England, there it will cease to be, until the Messiah comes.
Thus saith the Lord God: Remove the diadem, and take off the crown: This shall not be the same: exalt him that is low and abase him that is high. I will overturn, overturn, overturn it: and it shall be no more, until he come whose right it is; and I will give it him.
This final end of the Israelite monarchy would be expected to coincide with the captivity of the English-speaking people. England (and Canada) will go under a Catholic European system. Ironically the new Dux Brittanicum will enslave the Angles, Saxons, Jutes and Danes.
There will be a mass exodus of those who will not accept Catholicism from these countries. Australia/New Zealand will be inundated with these English migrants. The cry 'come out of her my people' has new meaning. The Europeans and like migrants, would be expected to attempt to place Australia under the Beast Power of Europe. This of itself would be unacceptable to the 'Kings of the Rising Sun' or the 'Kings of the East' at Revelation 16:12.
It appears that Australia would be invaded and driven to repentance in sackcloth and ashes, but these countries play an important part in the sequence of the end.
The second Sybilline Oracle was aware of this when it was written (probably prior to 150 CE). After description of the incredible disasters at the time of the end, the false prophet or religious leader of demonic origin will perform miracles, which will confuse the majority of people; even confusing the chosen or elect who, with the Hebrews, will be plundered. It says:
A terrible wrath will come upon them when a people of ten tribes will come from the east to seek the people, which the shoot of Assyria destroyed of their fellow Hebrews. Nations will perish after these things.
From Ezekiel chapters 29-32 the final occupation of Egypt by the Princes of the North should occur in the not too distant future, after a European Islamic conflict.
When the Sybilline Oracles were written, there were no Israelite nations east of what we now call Israel. The only ten tribe or Israelite people east of Judea are Australia and New Zealand. Indeed there is no other nation that could even remotely be considered as fulfilling this prophecy. The possibility exists that the U.S. may assist via Australia. This prophecy is derived from the biblical prophecies covering the coming of the Messiah. This accords with another prophecy regarding the activities of God at the last days, where the work of God will be kindled in the south. This is covered in the paper Fire from Heaven (No. 28).
The prophet Jeremiah mentions the warning of the approach at chapter 4:15, where the voice, publishing affliction from the mountains of Ephraim, warning the nations that he is coming, is also associated with the tribe of Dan.
This accords with Catholic prophecies, which tell of an antichrist of the tribe of Dan, who attempts to reintroduce the Law of Moses coming from a land to the east between two seas.
Indeed this is true as the prophet Isaiah foretells at chapter 46:11, where in declaring the end from the beginning the Eternal calls 'a ravenous bird from the east, the man that executeth my counsel from a far country'.
It should be noted that the eagle is the symbol of Dan and 'The far country' is a euphemism for Australia, in use almost since its settlement. It may also be indicative of the Kings of the East of later prophecy.
This is immediately prior to the Messiah as from verse 13 we are told 'I bring near my righteousness; it shall not be far off, and my salvation shall not tarry: and I will place salvation in Zion for Israel my glory.'
It is probable that the prophet of Dan-Ephraim is a voice or group, that precedes the two witnesses of Revelation 11. During the wars of the end, which are shortly to occur, economic and strategic issues will be considered together with religious matters. The new European superstate will be both an enforced civil and ecclesiastical power, and the size of the nations and the conduct of the war will deceive many people. This last battle for the earth is essentially spiritual and will be fought not by might, 'nor by power but by my spirit says the Lord.' This battle with Islam coming soon, is the last ‘wars of the kings of the north and south’ foretold by God through the prophet Daniel.
The purpose of this paper is to examine the non-biblical prophecies. It is also designed to show that there are a series of possibilities in the future divisions and hostilities. These future actions may be designed to appeal or confuse the English speaking people and destroy the power of the Commonwealth, which with the United States of America, up until today, has enabled the world to maintain a freedom that it would never achieve under a united Europe. The identity of the English-speaking people is an important tool in understanding the Bible and the activities which involve them in the last days.
With regards to the biblical definition of the prince to come/ who becomes the the king of fiece countance
The eighth King who is also one of the seven /the beast who is
wounded by a sword and the unworthy shepherd who is struck with a sword which leaves him with a withered arm and blinded right eye ,
The shepherd who deserts the flock and betrays the ONE TRUE FAITH.
He will be the king / Great Monarch of Europe and the eighth king of a modern day Roman Empire.
Able to head armies, influence matters of world religion and also have all the titles and links to the Antimessiah figure given throughout Holy Scripture.
The beast of revelation, is both described by symbolism of a empire /empires
and also as bieng an individual man and a king .
"I saw a beast that had the body of a leopard ,
the feet of a bear and the mouth of a lion" .
This beast on the left-hand side of Charles' coat of arms (pictured above ) has the head and mouth of a lion, the body of a leopard, and the feet of a bear. Typically in heraldry, lions have only three claws per foot while bears will have four or five. This lion has four claws and thus resembles those of a bear. Traditionally in heraldry, the lion has represented England, however Prince Charles' heraldic representation is totally unique in history even differing from that of his mother's, Queen Elizabeth, whose lion has the typical three claws per foot.
(Rev 13:2 KJV) And the beast which I saw was like unto a leopard, and his feet were as the feet of a bear, and his mouth as the mouth of a lion: and the dragon gave him his power, and his seat, and great authority.
(note; the half leopard /lions are unique in english hereldry, according to the heredlic key,
the french termed them leo/ pards (dictinction being half leopard half lions.)
"if any has understanding let him calculate the number of
the beast for it is the number Of A MAN "
This Man is THE VERY CULMINATION of ALL THE POWER THAT IS HIDDEN WITHIN THE SYMBOLISM THAT DESCRIBES ALL THE PAST BEAST EMPIRES that The Prophet Daniel details in his writings.
In daniel's beast kings/kingdoms prophecy we had the leopard beast
the bear beast and the lion beast empires or kings.
The book of revelation gives us A BEAST SYMBOLISM ALSO -
AND IT'S BEAST IS A MONTAGE OF THE SEPERATE BEAST
KINGS/EMPIRES OF DANIELS WRITINGS
-COMPRISED OF THESE THREE ELEMENTS-
LION-
LEOPARD-
BEAR.
The Beast in the book of revelation has a number, this number is a number of A man (not
man in general -note )
But "A" man.(singular)
A man will preside over this beast empire, that will be the culmination ,character /purpose and fulfillment of all the previous beast empires that were described the book of Daniel The Prophet.
Infact the beast mentioned in the book of revelation is as The Prophet Daniel describes,The last beast more terrifying than all the previous Beasts.
This last beast (more terrifying than all the others ,started with and was the Roman Empire, it is :_
THE BEAST THAT WAS .
(the Roman Empire was the major tool of satan against Gods chosen people)
And was the major world Empire .Yet it desintegrated,
but was held up by the formation of the Roman catholic church, it spread its influence all over Europe, And was regurgitated under the popes in the from of the Holy Roman Empire which started with Charlegmane and Had seven main Kings all named Charles.
This revival under the Popes hence Holy ROMAN EMPIRE also demised.
And The legacy of the Roman Empire seemed to be gone.
THE BEAST THAT IS NOT .
It was seen as not and strictly speaking was not.
THE BEAST THAT IS TO COME
. Yet it's infuence formed the democracys of europe the usa and especially the united kingdom, which became the last Empire to tred upon Jerusalem before the Jews in 1967 for the fist time in over 3000 years retook it from the gentiles.
"Jerusalem shall be trodd in by the Gentiles , until the times of the Gentiles be fulffilled."
Now the European Union is forming into the NEW Roman Empire and the United Kingdom has a King in the waiting who is in true historic ascendancy The Eighth King of The Holy Roman Empire( or would be if the EEC. places a Monarchy in the style of the United Kingdom over its governemt and EEC parliament.A move that This Man has already suggested in a letter to the EEC parliament Leglislative council .
When Charles becomes King ,Just as the present statues qou stands, he WILL BE OFFICIALLY ONE OF THE KINGS OF THE HOLY ROMAN EMPIRE NAMED CHARLES THROUGH HISTORIC LINEAGE , , HE WILL BE CHARLES THE III.
If the EEC takes on board the British monarchy system AS A MODEL and Charles becomes King of The EEC he will also become THE EIGHTH KING OF THE HOLY ROMAN EMPIRE .
So as in revelation HE WILL BE ONE OF KINGS , AND THE EIGHTH KING .
ONE WHO HAS NOT YET RECIEVED THE HONOUR OF KINGSHIP
In the book of Daniel ,this King is portrayed as being seen as despicable and unliked by his own people.
There are many reasons this can be linked to Prince Charles, the chief reason is the way he and the Royal family, treated Diana Princess of Wales.
Also though recently Charles has regained massive public support and as i said ealrier this is what the King in the book of Daniel pulls off to.
He is seen as dispicable and unworthy of the title KING ,yet through intrigue and cojolling manages to get the Kingship with the peoples wholehearted support.
In other words ( to put this is modern terms) through a careful media P.R campaign , this despised Prince manages to get full public support, and admiration in the end, and with the blessing of a small people the title of Kingship eventually is given him without any misgivings,
As a prince in line for the throne, this king would get the honour of kingship in anycase -but i read Daniel specifically saying This man wont be popular at all, and is yet to recieve the title of Monarch, in other words hes a Prince before the kingship is given , but a lot of cajoling of peoples opinions of this man is done before he gets that title, in order to have the blessing of people in general before he becomes king.
when all seemed against him doing so.
And if you look at how despised Prince charles has been in the past ,and compare it to the general feeling of the uk public as a whole now, believe me there is a massive shift.
One article (below) in particular deals with this:-
CHARLES SEEN AS UNFIT TO BE KING
As related in a previous edition of this newsletter, there is a
growing body of opinion in the country which would want Scotland to
have a devolved form of government or even to be completely
independent of the rest of the U.K. Consequently, an "anti-monarchy"
vote in Scotland could actually be an expression of a desire for
separation. Those so inclined would not necessarily be against the
notion of having a monarch; but he or she would have to be of the
home-grown variety. However, with the European Union very keen to
embrace anything and everything, it would be difficult to see an
independent Scotland being anything other than a republic. The
Scottish National Party has - as one of its slogans - "Independence
in Europe." This, however, is a contradiction in terms and a totally
unrealistic ideal. Any country which integrates with the rest of
Europe (to the extent that the E.U. would want) will inevitably
become part of a federalist structure with a loss - probably more
rather than less - of national sovereignty. With or without a monarch
in Scotland, Europe - if it has its way - will rule; O.K.! The
other "embedded" question - which might have muddied the issue and
may have been politically incorrect to ask overtly - was whether the
U.K. would want Prince Charles to be King. It is generally felt that
the question, if asked, would result in a huge "No" vote. Even
establishment figures and leading churchmen are now declaring that
Prince Charles is unfit to inherit the throne. Even to suggest this,
a few years ago, would have been viewed as treasonable and would have
resulted in -at best - eternal banishment from polite circles and -
at worst - the offender being dragged off to the Tower and beheaded.
The 2:1 vote in favour from England and Wales is being interpreted as
a vote of confidence in the monarchy but the result must surely
contain a substantial show of support for our present Queen - given
the lack of esteem in which Prince Charles is now held. The Northern
Ireland vote was no surprise given that the majority of the
population in the province is Unionist / Protestant and any threat to
the monarchy would weaken the Unionist fight to remain part of the
U.K.

ROME is the empire that this prince to come shall emerge as a King over ,indeed in The Book Of Daniel The Prophet This Princes' people are described quite plainly as Romans.
(With the benefit of historical hindsight, we know this to be true.)
ROME is associated with This Prince, and he will be the King of the Romans, one day, but that Empire ,"ROME "
TRULY WAS,
IS NOT
AND IS TO-
COME.
ROME IS WHAT THE BEAST SYMBOLISM REFERS TO
But ,it is infact not Rome as we might think ,say of just Italions. For Rome was made up of
many peoples as was Ancient Babylon .(which was one of the Beast Empires mentioned in the book of Daniel .) for they too were conquerers of Empires , just like the Romans' were, and so their society was multicultural.
In the book of revelation, the word Babylon was synominous with Rome and was used as a code word for Rome , for both Empires were ruled by the same Anti God - Anti Isreal spirit, that Spirit was SATAN , or the RED DRAGON that OLD SERPENT CALLED THE DEVIL.
Babylon will play its part in the final emergence of the Roman Beast empire whos' KING will get his Power Throne and AUTHORITY from the Red Dragon, (that is Satan)
In a Like manner to the story about the Tower of Babel in the Book of Genesis,
Many Tongues One Voice was the actual slogan on The European Union's official publicity poster This was accompanied by a painting in the style an orignal work by a medievel artist of What is well known to depict and indeed is actually titled The Tower of Babel .
(see below)
A poster circulated by the Council of Europe,
one of the three main divisions of the
European Economic Community, pictures the
tower of Babel as its logo and the phrase
"Many Tongues, One Voice" as its motto.
"The poster is a combination of a fifteenth
century drawing of the tower of Babel, with
the imposition of a modern crane, illustrating
that the Common Market alliance in 1992 will
complete the building of a one-world order
whose top will reach to heaven. The twelve stars
represent the 1990 membership of the Common Market"
(Europe is Rising!
Oklahoma City, OK: Hearthstone Publishing,
1990, Inside cover).
As this babylon symbolism depicts EUROPE RISING AS ONE like ROME
It points me straight to the Hereldic Beast symbolism on prince charles'
coat of arms which is said to depict :-
1)Germany (feet of a bear ( 4 toes not denoting lion, usually bear according to hereldic dictionary)-germany "the bear "holy roman empire.
2) France (body of a leopard - peculiar to the English herelds 'their Lions always have bodies more akin to leopards than lions)
3)England (mouth of a lion- england synominous with the young lions.)
The main players in the EEC.
Which in turn took symbolism from past world Empires mentioned in The Book of daniel, where he describes all the Empires that will rise and fall , and are symbolised as beasts to identify and describe them.
Anyone with a knowledge of spiritual connections and how all these
past empires actually have their root in Babylon will easily see the link between them all.
Daniel 2 And the European Economic Community
Verse 1: And in the second year of the reign of Nebuchadnezzar, Nebuchadnezzar dreamed dreams,
wherewith his spirit was troubled, and his sleep brake from him.
The king of Babylon was given a dream which made such a strong impression on him that he was unable to sleep.
God sometimes reveals His will in dreams or visions (Job 33:14-18).
Verse 2: Then the king commanded to call the magicians, and the astrologers, and the sorcerers, and the
Chaldeans, for to shew the king his dreams. So they came and stood before the king.
It was popular in Daniel’s day, as it still is today, for world leaders to consult the supernatural. Today the group
called before the king would include astrologers, palm readers, new age worshipers, fortunetellers, spiritualists,
and others involved in the occult. Deuteronomy 18:9-12 says that all spiritualistic activities are an abomination
to the Lord. When the Bible calls something an "abomination," it means it is the most offensive thing imaginable
to God. He does not want His followers to have any connection with the entire realm of the supernatural.
According to Deuteronomy 18:10, "There shall not be found among you anyone that maketh his son or daughter
to pass through the fire, or that useth divination, or an observer of times, or an enchanter or a witch, or a charmer,
or a consulter with familiar spirits or a wizard or a necromancer."
Revelation 16 says that obsession and preoccupation with the supernatural will be one of the allurements
which Satan uses to deceive the world. The United States is referred to as a Christian nation. It's money declares,
"In God We Trust." Yet the "fad" of Satanism is popular today. Young people can readily purchase ouija boards
and other New Age devices. God’s followers should not even consider engaging in such activities.
"All those that do these things are an abomination unto the Lord" (Deut. 18:12). God declares that the only kind
of connection needed with the supernatural is with Him through prayer.
Verse 3: And the king said unto them, I have dreamed a dream, and my spirit was troubled to know the dream.
In verses 4-7, the men who had been called by the king were saying, "No problem, King. You tell us what you
dreamed and we will tell you what your dream means." They reasoned that if they knew what the dream was they
could easily respond with an interpretation that would please the king. But the king saw right through their plan.
Verse 8: The king answered and said, I know of certainty that ye would gain the time, because ye see the thing
is gone from me.
Verse 9: But if ye will not make known unto me the dream, there is but one decree for you: for ye have prepared
lying and corrupt words to speak before me, till the time be changed: therefore tell me the dream, and I shall
know that ye can shew me the interpretation thereof.
The king now puts the wise men to the test. There is no way they can lie or fake their way through the interpretation
of his dream.
Verse 10: The Chaldeans answered before the king, and said, There is not a man upon the earth that can shew
the king’s matter: therefore there is no king, lord, nor ruler, that asked such things of any magician, or astrologer,
or Chaldean.
Verse 11: And it is a rare thing that the king requireth, and there is none other that can shew it before the king,
except the gods, whose dwelling is not with flesh.
Apparently Satan cannot read minds as he was unable to reveal Nebuchadnezzar’s dream. Probably several hundred
wise men and magicians were brought before the king to give the interpretation. Yet not one could make known the king’s dream. God’s followers today can guard against Satan’s efforts to control their minds by avoiding situations in which
he can influence them.
Verse 12: For this cause the king was angry and very furious, and commanded to destroy all the wise men of Babylon.
This scripture emphasizes the king’s extreme displeasure by saying he was "angry" and "very furious."
Verse 13: And the decree went forth that the wise men should be slain; and they sought Daniel and his fellows
to be slain.
The wording seems to indicate that the killing had already begun or was about to begin. Daniel and his friends,
young men at the time of this vision, were not part of this group by choice. They had been taken captive when
Nebuchadnezzar waged a military campaign against Jerusalem (Dan. 1:1). Daniel and his young companions appeared handsome, healthy, and keen of mind. They looked as if they could be useful to the Babylonian kingdom, so they
were brought to the king’s court to learn the wisdom of the Babylonians (Dan. 1:4).
When they arrived at the king’s court, "the king appointed them a daily provision of the king’s meat, and of the
wine which he drank" (Dan. 1:5). Imagine being a teenager and being given such honor. Refusal of the king’s
food could mean death. "But Daniel purposed in his heart that he would not defile himself with the portion of the
king’s meat, nor with the wine which he drank: therefore he requested of the prince of the eunuchs that he might
not defile himself. Prove thy servants, I beseech thee, ten days; and let them give us pulse to eat, and water to drink"
(Dan. 1:8, 12). Daniel determined to stand firm to God and to the principles of pure living which he had been taught in Jerusalem. He requested a diet of plant origin with water to drink for a ten-day trial. A study of the first chapter of the
Bible shows that his request was in harmony with the original diet given to man
(Gen.1:29). "And at the end of ten days their countenances appeared fairer and fatter in flesh than all the
children which did eat the portion of the king’s meat" (Dan. 1:15). After just ten days, they were a striking picture
of health and vigor.
God blessed Daniel and his companions for remaining true to their beliefs, according to Daniel 1:17:
"As for these four children, God gave them knowledge and skill in all learning and wisdom: and Daniel
had understanding in all visions and dreams." Realistically, there is no way Daniel and his friends could have
shown such a marked difference in just ten days. They purposed in their hearts to honor God, and God "gave" them
beyond what they would normally have benefited.
How great were their benefits? "And in all matters of wisdom and understanding, that the king inquired of them,
he found them ten times better than all the magicians and astrologers that were in all his realm" (Dan. 1:20).
This is quite a statement. It would be one thing if they were twice as good (200 percent), or even five times as good
(500 percent), but they were ten times better (1000 percent). Regardless of what they ate, they weren’t ten times
better solely because of their diet. They did their best to honor God and God honored them.
God’s followers today would do well to follow Daniel’s example by putting things into their bodies that will give
them clear minds. A close connection exists between the body and the mind. Satan’s deceptions are keen and subtle.
God’s people must have clear minds in order to guard against deception as well as to clearly understand Bible prophecy.
Imagine being in Daniel’s situation. He has been placed in the king’s court against his will and now he and his
companions are going to be killed because they are part of this group of wise men. He questions Arioch,
the king’s captain, about the situation and then speaks to the king (Dan. 2:14, 15).
Verse 16: Then Daniel went in, and desired of the king that he would give him time, and that he would shew
the king the interpretation.
Daniel asked for time to pray to the God of heaven and request that God reveal the interpretation of the king’s dream.
Verse 19: Then was the secret revealed unto Daniel in a night vision. Then Daniel blessed the God of heaven.
Daniel’s confidence in God is rewarded. God miraculously reveals to him both the king’s dream and its interpretation.
Daniel is now able to tell the king exactly what he wants to know. What a sense of gratitude and praise Daniel
must have felt. In response to God’s revelation, Daniel offers a prayer of praise and thanksgiving that is unparalleled
anywhere in Scripture. He gives all the glory to God.
Verse 20: Daniel answered and said, Blessed be the name of God for ever and ever: for wisdom and might are his:
Verse 21: And he changeth the times and the seasons: he removeth kings, and setteth up kings: he giveth wisdom
unto the wise, and knowledge to them that know understanding:
Verse 22: He revealeth the deep and secret things: he knoweth what is in the darkness, and the light dwelleth with him.
Physical light is beautiful. Even more beautiful is the spiritual light that is offered to all. God will give His followers
light and understanding as they study His Word. He offers His followers today who serve Him faithfully no less a
blessing than he did Daniel and his friends.
Verse 23: I thank thee, and praise thee, O thou God of my fathers, who hast given me wisdom and might, and
hast made known unto me now what we desired of thee: for thou hast now made known unto us the king’s matter.
Verses 24 - 26 say that no time was wasted in taking Daniel before the king because the killing of the wise men had
started or was about to start. The wise men and astrologers who were under Satan’s influence probably didn’t
realize that they owed their very existence to this group of God’s faithful young men.
Verse 27: Daniel answered in the presence of the king, and said, The secret which the king hath demanded
cannot the wise men, the astrologers, the magicians, the soothsayers, shew unto the king;
Verse 28: But there is a God in heaven that revealeth secrets, and maketh known to the king Nebuchadnezzar
what shall be in the latter days. Thy dream, and the visions of thy head upon thy bed, are these;
Daniel declares that the God of Heaven knows the future and has revealed the secrets of what will happen throughout
history down to the end of time. Notice that Daniel doesn’t take any personal credit for what he is about to reveal to
the king but gives all the glory to the God of Heaven.
The phrase from verse 28, "what shall be in the latter days," suggests that those who are living now can
certainly expect to find something applicable to current time in this prophecy. Not only is the present time
the "latter days" but also the last days.
In verse 31 Daniel begins to tell the king exactly what he saw in his dream.
Verse 31: Thou, O king, sawest, and behold a great image. This great image, whose brightness was excellent,
stood before thee; and the form thereof was terrible.
A modern translation of the Bible would probably call the appearance of the image "awesome, huge, and bright."
Whatever it looked like, it made a tremendous impression on the king. Amazingly, in just a few words Daniel outlines
2500 years of world history.
Verse 32: This image’s head was of fine gold, his breast and his arms of silver, his belly and his thighs of brass,
Verse 33: His legs of iron, his feet part of iron and part of clay.
Verse 34: Thou sawest till that a stone was cut out without hands, which smote the image upon his feet that were
of iron and clay, and brake them to pieces.
This mysterious stone cut without hands is the focal point for Daniel 2. It comes out of the mountain and crashes into
the feet of the image, grinding the whole image to powder.
Verse 35: Then was the iron, the clay, the brass, the silver, and the gold, broken to pieces together, and became
like the chaff of the summer threshingfloors; and the wind carried them away, that no place was found for them:
and the stone that smote the image became a great mountain, and filled the whole earth.
Verse 36: This is the dream; and we will tell the interpretation thereof before the king.
Verse 37: Thou, O king, art a king of kings: for the God of heaven hath given thee a kingdom, power, and
strength, and glory.
Verse 38: And wheresoever the children of men dwell, the beasts of the field and the fowls of the heaven hath he
given into thine hand, and hath made thee ruler over them all. Thou art this head of gold.
Notice that it says, "wheresoever the children of men dwell." The Bible is clear that King Nebuchadnezzar was
ruler of the world: "the beasts of the field and the fowls of the heaven hath He given into thine hand, and
hath made thee ruler over them all." Then Daniel gives the key to understanding this prophecy:
"Thou art this head of gold." Daniel tells King Nebuchadnezzar that the head of gold represents the great
golden empire of Babylon.
Babylon came to power in 605 BC and lasted until 538 BC. Daniel 5 depicts what actually took place the
night Babylon fell. Belshazzar, who succeeded Nebuchadnezzar to the throne, had great wealth and power.
On the final night of his reign, he hosted an enormous party. Belshazzar, along with his princes, wives, concubines,
and lords, were in a drunken revel. Apparently the chain of command was broken and the city was left unguarded.
In Isaiah 45:1-2, the Bible foretold two hundred years in advance that Cyrus, mentioning him by name, would
conquer Babylon. "Thus saith the Lord . . . to Cyrus, . . . I will loose the loins of kings, to open before him the
two leaved gates; and the gates shall not be shut;. . . I will break in pieces the gates of brass, and cut in sunder
the bars of iron." Under cover of night, Cyrus marched the combined armies of the Medes and Persians outside
the walls of Babylon, diverted the Euphrates River that ran through the city, and marched into Babylon on the
dry riverbed. Once inside he met little resistance.
The architects of Babylon had designed huge gates with bars of iron to prevent entrance into the city by way of
the river. But alas, the two hinged gates had not been shut, exactly as God foretold. That night God numbered the
days of the great Babylonian kingdom and ended it (Dan.5:26).
Verse 39: And after thee shall arise another kingdom inferior to thee, and another third kingdom of brass,
which shall bear rule over all the earth.
The chest and arms of silver represent the next world empire, Medo-Persia.
Most people think of silver as being inferior to gold. So it was with the Empire of the Medes and Persians.
The Medo-Persian government ruled the world until 331 BC.
But a third kingdom would arise: "and another third kingdom of brass which shall bear rule over all the earth."
The belly and thighs of brass represent the government of Greece. The armies of Greece, under the command of
Alexander the Great, met and conquered the armies of Medo-Persia on the Plain of Arbela in 331 BC, thus establishing
Greece as the third world empire.
Verse 40: 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.
Notice an interesting thing here. As the order of the metals descend from the head of the image (gold, silver, brass, iron),
they decrease in value, but they actually increase in strength. A bulldozer built of solid gold may be beautiful in
appearance, but the first time it hits a stump, it will be destroyed. Gold just doesn’t have the strength that iron has.
How fitting to describe the iron kingdom of Rome as one that would "break in pieces and bruise."
In its conquests, Rome was the most powerful and cruel empire in history, annihilating all opposition.
In many cases it made slaves of those it conquered, a fate worse than death. The shameful and torturous death of
Jesus Christ by crucifixion was ordered by the Roman governor Pontius Pilate at the demand of unbelieving
Jewish leaders. Crucifixion continued to be employed against Christians until it was finally abolished by
Emperor Constantine, who blended paganism and Christianity in an effort to unify his empire.
Verse 41: And whereas thou sawest the feet and toes, part of potters’ clay, and part of iron, the kingdom shall
be divided; but there shall be in it of the strength of the iron, forasmuch as thou sawest the iron mixed with miry clay.
When the kingdoms of Babylon, Medo-Persia, and Greece were entered into the history books, their world-dominating
power went with them. This was not to be the case with the Roman Empire: "the kingdom shall be divided."
This says that Rome would be divided, or fragmented. Most historians agree that ten divisions emerged from the
divided Roman Empire:
Alamanni (Germany) 6. Visigoths (Spain)
Franks (France)7. Lombards (Italy)
Burgundians (Switzerland)8. Heruli (AD 493)
Suevi (Portugal)9. Vandals (AD 534)
Anglo-Saxon (Britian) 10. Ostrogoths (AD 538)
Verse 41 says that Rome would be divided, and that is exactly what happened. Rather than coming to an end,
it fragmented. "But there shall be in it of the strength of the iron." The word "but" denotes a contrast. Even though
Rome fragmented, in "it" (the divided kingdoms) would be the strength of iron. Rome was the iron kingdom.
Even today in the modern nations of Europe, Rome can be expected to be the dominating influence. In a mixture
of iron and clay (i.e. chunks of iron and lumps of clay), the iron is definitely the stronger part.
Verse 42: And as the toes of the feet were part of iron, and part of clay, so the kingdom shall be partly strong,
and partly broken.
The fragmented nations resulting from the breakup of the Roman Empire would number ten, just as the image
had ten toes.
Verse 43: And whereas thou sawest iron mixed with miry clay, they shall mingle themselves with the seed of men:
but they shall not cleave one to another, even as iron is not mixed with clay.
This verse says, "They (the divided kingdoms) shall mingle themselves with the seed of men." In an attempt to
unify Europe, at one time nearly all the European heads of state intermarried, but even this could not prove the
prophecy wrong: "but they (the nations of Europe) shall not cleave one to another." At least seven attempts have
been made throughout history in which Satan has set out to prove this prophecy wrong. Charlemagne, Charles V,
Louis XIV, Napoleon, Kaiser Wilhelm, Hitler, and Mussolini all set out to unite Europe. A united Europe would mean
control of the world, but just as the Bible predicted, all such plans have failed.
Revelation 17 mentions one final attempt to unite Europe. The following paragraphs will briefly examine the prophecy of Revelation 17:12-14 for an overview of how these ten toes are shaping the world today. For a complete study of this
important subject, follow these prophecies in sequence to their conclusion in a three-part study of Revelation 17.
According to Daniel 2:44, "in the days of these (ten) kings shall the God of heaven set up a kingdom." John the
Revelator also describes the movements of the same ten kings just before they "make war with the Lamb, and the
Lamb shall overcome them" (Rev. 17:14).
Revelation 17:12 says, "And the ten horns which thou sawest are ten kings, which have received no kingdom as yet;
but receive power as kings one hour with the beast."
Revelation 17:13 continues, "These have one mind, and shall give their power and strength unto the beast."
A careful study of the prophecies of Daniel and Revelation reveals that the ten kings of Daniel 2 are the same ten kings
as those in Revelation 17 "which have received no kingdom as yet." A study of Revelation 17 further reveals that "as yet"
refers to an exact time period. The Bible makes it clear that the ten kings have received "no kingdom (singular) as yet."
This does not say they haven’t received their kingdoms (plural). These nations have been kings since the breakup of the
Roman Empire, but they have not "as yet" spoken with "one mind" as referred to in Revelation 17:13. Just before the
coming of Jesus, during a short period of time referred to as "one hour," these nations will receive power from or have
some kind of an alliance with the "beast." The present study of Daniel 2 does not attempt to identify this "beast" power. However, this power will be examined in detail in subsequent studies of the prophecies of Daniel and Revelation.
Whatever length of time the "one hour" period refers to, during that time "These (the nations of Europe) have one mind,
and shall give their power and strength unto the beast" (Rev. 17:13).
In 1992 under the Maastricht Treaty, the European Economic Community (created with the signature of the
Treaty of Rome on March 25, 1957) emerged as the strongest economic trading block in the world. Today it directly
involves fifteen nations with 400 million consumers. This is the first time since the Holy Roman Empire that Europe has
been in a position to speak with one voice.
Earth’s population is heading for a final showdown between the power of heaven and the powers of earth. God says
the nations of Europe will not bond in a lasting union: "they shall not cleave one to another" (Dan. 2:43). Earthly
powers say that those nations will once again be many tongues with one voice and are determined to have a complete
political and economic union of Europe. "West Europeans mostly welcome the plans for monetary and political union"
(Time 9 Dec. 1991: 39).
In the end, God permits a worldwide religio-political union of every nation upon the planet
(Rev. 17:12-18; 14:8; 16:14; 18:3). However, this confederation of Satan’s forces will not triumph, for
"These shall make war with the Lamb, and the Lamb shall overcome them: for He is Lord of lords, and King of kings:
and they that are with Him are called, and chosen, and faithful" (Rev. 17:14).
This text describes the final battle of earth and is a parallel text to Daniel 2:44.
Verse 44: And in the days of these kings shall the God of heaven set up a kingdom, which shall never be destroyed:
and the kingdom shall not be left to other people, but it shall break in pieces and consume all these kingdoms, and it
shall stand for ever.
When these ten kings (the nations of Europe) receive "power as kings" with the beast of Rev. 17:12, then "shall the
God of heaven set up a kingdom . . . and it shall stand forever."
Verse 45: Forasmuch as thou sawest that the stone was cut out of the mountain without hands, and that it brake in
pieces the iron, the brass, the clay, the silver, and the gold; the great God hath made known to the king what shall
come to pass hereafter: and the dream is certain, and the interpretation thereof sure.
The stone cut without human hands represents the literal Second Coming of Christ when all earthly power in opposition
to Him will be demolished.
The role the ten kings have assumed in recent years has placed the world on a collision course with the words of
Daniel 2:43, "they shall not cleave one to another." God says, "You won’t," and the world says, "We will." It seems
obvious that a confrontation between the power of heaven and the powers of earth will soon take place.
The words of Jesus will soon be fulfilled: "Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done in earth, as it is in heaven" (Matt. 6:10).
Let’s prepare now to be citizens of Christ’s eternal kingdom.
Summary
"The world attests the four empires of Daniel 2 . . . . The first kingdom is the Babylonian kingdom, the second the Medo-Persian, the third the great kingdom of Alexander and the Greeks, and the fourth the Holy Roman Empire. In this the whole world agrees, and history supports it fully in detail. But the prophet has the most to say about the Roman Empire, the legs, the feet, and the toes. The Roman Empire will be divided. Spain, France, England, and others emerged from it; some of them weak, and others strong. Although it will be divided, there will still be some strength as symbolized by the iron in it. This empire will last until the end; no one will destroy it but Jesus Himself when His kingdom comes." – Martin Luther, From his Comprehensive Exposition of Daniel.

Revelation in sequential order.
European Economic Community
Formerly known as the European Communities (EC) or the Common Market, the organization for the economic and political integration of Europe
took the name of the European Union (EU) on Nov. 1, 1993. This union was the result of nearly 45 years of effort by the nations of Western Europe.
After the terrible destruction caused be World War II, European leaders believed it was essential to forge new ties of economic and political cooperation
to achieve prosperity and to prevent a recurrence of war. The new institutions were also designed to be a free-market response to the Communist states
of Eastern Europe. The steps toward the creation of the European Union were gradual. It started with the formation of the European Coal and Steel Community (EEC), the establishment of Euratom, and adoption of the Maastricht Treaty of 1991 (Compton’s Encyclopedia Online, 1998).
Treaty of Rome
Representatives of six nations (Belgium, France, West Germany, Italy, Luxembourg, and the Netherlands) signed the Treaty of Rome on
March 25, 1957. The EEC, or Common Market, was formed on Jan. 1, 1958. The goals of the Treaty of Rome were: to remove trade barriers;
to establish a single trade policy toward nonmember countries; to coordinate transportation systems and agricultural policies; to ease the movement of
capital and labor across borders; and to remove obstacles to competition (Compton’s Encyclopedia Online, 1998).
Maastricht Treaty
In April 1990 the EC committed itself to a common foreign and defense policy by the end of 1992. In 1991 the EC and the seven-member
European Free Trade Association agreed to create the European Economic Area. This large free-trade zone took effect on Jan. 1, 1993.
In December 1991 delegates from the 12 member states met in Maastricht, the Netherlands, to approve a treaty calling for a central bank, a common
currency by 1999, an exchange-rate mechanism (ERM), and closer political union. After a lengthy ratification process, the treaty was finally put into effect
on Nov. 1, 1993 (Compton’s Encyclopedia Online, 1998).
-------------------------------------------------------
This Rome in the form of the E.U IS A RIDDLE THE ABOVE IS SHOWING HOW IT WAS LINKED TO BABYLON AND
THE OTHER EMPIRES IN DANIELS' BEAST RIDDLES THE FINAL BEAST OF
REVELATION IS THE ZENITH OF ALL THESE ATTEMPTS BY THE RED DRAGON TO
RULE MAN AND DEFY GOD .
FROM THE TIME OF DANIEL TO THE PRESENT DAY.
For indeed the kingdoms of this world are now infact cotrolled by the
evil one ,terrible as this thought may be for the sake of
understanding this topic its vital we ascent to this truth.
knowing the comfort that soon the kingdoms of this world will become
the kingdoms of our lord and christ and brought fully under Gods
control.EVEN THOUGH EVEN NOW WE KNOW GOD IS ABOVE AND IN CONTROL OF
ALL THE CHAOS IN THE WORLD .
It is plain that one day the Kingdoms of this world will become the Kingdoms of Our Lord and Christ.
and as St john says the whole World (*system) is ruled by the evil one)
This is in Gods 'purpose and plan mind.
This final beast empire rises up out of the sea or (meditteranian area ) according to the book of revelation.
This sea has been interpretated to mean either-(the actual meditaranean sea)or (the gentile nations ) or politics or earthly powers the sea which is in constant turmoil and revolution.
All these interpretations can easily fit to refer to this one mans rise to power and how
seemingly from a powerless position he gains more power than any man.
The Beast at it's zenith is described in symbolism that leads us to a depiction of a modern Rome or a future Empire that encapulates all that was the Rome Empire .
As we have seen Rome itself was only a culmination of the previous beast empires.
This doesn't manifest always neccesarily in geographic terms,but in terms of a spirit and Objective and purpose especially where isreal as a nation and people is concerned.
We can see this same spirit at work today , with the E.E.C'S support for the terrorist regime of yassa arrafat, who is shielded by diplomatic immunity backed with billion $ per month aid, and the the prestigious acknowledgement of the E.E.C , as a real sincere democratic leader of a legal free people and nation, when infact he is a murderer who is either decieving them into being a mordern day chamberlain or in cohorts with him , to destroy the nation of Isreal,
A s he organises the terror suicide bomber campaign against the Jewish people and nation of Isreal .The E.E.C clamour to make Isreal look like an agressor and promote arrafats' cause whithin the united nations and among the the individual governments of the world.
So as in the case of the ancient Babylon and Rome we see the same anitchrist spirit of the red dragon that old serpent, satan, trying to constantly manipulate world empires to destroy isreal.
Labour Leads to Birth of Monster
6 June 2001
Vote Labour and get a monster in return! The monster is the EU. Here is a summary of what it will mean to be in the EU as a full member...
+ The European commission will be an unelected executive overruling individual governments. This move has been scheduled for the EU constitutional summit in 2004 – so the sovereignty of the UK will be lost in just 3 years!
+ The EU will be a federal state with many powers to ignore individual countries’ (25 to 27 in all) laws.
+ There will be further loss of vetoes, giving greater control to men we don’t even know! So, we can’t object about anything because we will be ruled by a virtual dictatorship.
+ We will lose sovereignty. Mr Blair is telling outright lies about this. Our MP’s will be useless, because they must do what they are told to do by Brussels. Therefore electing a party will mean nothing. EU rulers will not be held accountable. The British Chancellor will be unable to act in the UK’s interest, but must obey Brussels on matters of finance, taxation, etc.
+ Mortgage and borrowing rates will be set by the EU with no regard for the circumstances of each country. This will usually lead to higher inflation rates!
+ Taxation will be used increasingly to pay for new and increasing demands for financial support for the EU. Ireland is already being forced to increase its taxation levels dramatically. In the UK it is likely that VAT will be put on food, children’s clothing, and other items not currently paying VAT. Thus all our costs will go up, alongside rising personal taxes.
+ Each region in the UK would have its own centre of government, removing central government influence, whether or not we want regional government! This will again dramatically increase what we pay to local governments! This will totally obliterate national identity.
+ Our legal system would no longer be in its historical form. The most immediate loss will be the idea of being innocent until found guilty. It also means indefinite detention of suspects with or without proof. In France this has already been used to imprison a family of Christians!
+ A Foreign police force would operate within the UK with its own powers of arrest. This Force will be able to arrest those the EU considers to be political subversives...so people like us at Bible Theology Ministries will come under direct scrutiny for not wishing to obey Brussels! We are already under suspicion...and this applies to any Christian organisation and church that speaks out.
+ Countries will lose the power to regulate their own immigration policies. This means Brussels can decide whether or not large numbers of people from any nation can come to the UK and have their families paid for by us, and we will not be able to stop it.
+ The UK will not be able to have its own foreign policy, so we could not act on behalf of friendly nations.
+ Brussels would be able to order the UK to ‘rubber stamp’ its directives, whether we like them or not. So, the laughable court case against the poor grocer who wished to sell his goods by the pound is not so funny after all! The demands will come thick and fast to obey every jot and tittle of the EU dictatorship. Many new laws are already waiting in the wings. Our own government will merely be pawns with no powers to object. That is why action NOW is vital.
+ The school curriculum will alter drastically and schools must teach pro-EU policies and propaganda. History and politics will be coloured and true history will be rewritten in favour of the EU. If this sounds just like communism or fascism, it is because it is no different!
+ There will be a new super-army, as we already know. It means British soldiers will be under the command of foreign officers and we will not be able to object to British soldiers entering a conflict which we wish to have nothing to do with.
+ The UK, as a richer country within the EU, will be expected through its personal tax system to pay for the pensions of many others in EU countries where they have no pension schemes!
+ British nationality will be abolished! We would be forced to assume the ‘nationality’ of the federation. The Queen will be subservient to the President of the EU, who will be our true head of state. We would thus owe our allegiance to the President of the EU.
The above are just some of the horrors awaiting us if we take up full membership of the EU! Let’s look at a few specifics...
+ Two thirds of UK abattoirs have been closed by EU regulations. Because of this foot and mouth spread more quickly, as farmers had to move their animals further distances. It is galling, when countries already in the EU refuse to act swiftly to enact EU policies!
+ Bananas must not be bent and must be a minimum of 14 cms long!
+ Heavy fines will be given for unclean beaches. The money goes to Brussels.
+ The EU forces British fishing boat owners to sell their boats to the Spanish, then penalises the UK because the boats are technically operating under UK quotas!! Thus our own fleet has almost been destroyed.
+ We pay about £8 BILLION in to the EU but get only half of that back again!! Thus countries that are less efficient than our own reap the benefit of our own hard work and taxes. Yet, the EU insists on saying it is to be praised for giving back to us half of what we send to Brussels!!
+ The EU will soon insist on longer and more dangerous buses for our roads.
+ Most UK cheese makers have been driven out of business by EU directives.
+ We in the UK have been citizens of the European Community since 1991...did you know that??
+ The Common Agricultural Policy (CAP) takes an alarming half of the entire EU budget! Most of the cash goes to continental farmers who are notoriously inefficient and have been for decades. That is how we had ‘mountains’ in the past. Waste is still extremely high and growing. This has, and will continue to, push up cost of food in the UK, and ruins many UK farmers. A vast amount of the cash is paid to non-existent sources.
+ Though the UK never had a constitution, it already has one that is based on Euro requirements. That is basically what the Human Rights charter is all about...the same one that protects and gives great powers to homosexuals and others who should have no powers at all. As a result pornographers, criminals and many others will be able to demand rights under EU law!!
+ Even our cricket pitches had to be made longer to comply with metric measurements!!
+ We must apply to the EU before we can protect our own animals with jabs etc.
+ We must now have EU driving licences bearing the stars of Rome.
+ The EU will demand equal rights for everyone, including those who have disgusting habits and life styles.
+ Financial services have had to comply with EU directives and so they are far more bureaucratic and cumbersome.
+ The EU forced the UK to change the colour of its fire extinguishers. Now they must all be red – very confusing – with different coloured bands. The cost to the UK has been enormous.
+ Since we joined the EU our fishing rights have been cut to almost nil, yet other countries are free to trawl our seas until fish stocks have almost gone.
+ The EU flag is now ‘preferred’ over many public buildings...a flag that represents the power of Rome and a homage to Mary.
+ Even flower pots are regulated by strict rules!!
+ The UK foreign policy is now set and regulated by Brussels.
+ UK immigration rules are now set by the EU. That is why Blair and Labour will do nothing to stop current unfair immigration activities. Also, the EU allows for EU nationals to remain in the UK...but just try to get work in the EU if you are from the UK!!
+ The UK cannot now subsidise UK businesses without first asking Brussels. That is why we are unable to fund our own bright ideas!!
+ We are now being forced to buy EU lavatories, with higher prices!!
+ EU law overrides our own UK law. This will increase rapidly. If we do not obey EU laws we are fined heavily. That is why Labour is always in such a rush to implement EU laws.
+ Lemons must be at least 42mms in diameter!! For goodness sake!!
+ We already know that our pounds and ounces have been scrapped in favour of metric measurements, even though most of us think and act in the old way and few of us want metric measurements.
+ If we put a Union Jack on our number plates we will be fined. But the stars of the EU are okay!!
+ The EU forced us to import oak tree acorns, because our own oak trees are not ‘pure’ enough!!
+ UK law consists now of 40% EU law. When we join fully it will become 100%. Our own Parliament does not even examine those laws, simply because there is no point – we must obey or be fined!
+ Our passports have already been abolished in favour of EU ones.
+ Peppers with sunburn patches over 2 cms long are banned.
+ The EU tells us how to package and dispose of items.
+ Some see-saws were banned from playgrounds by the EU.
+ The EU can demand more workers rights even if they harm industry.
+ The EU is now starting to clamp down on companies in the UK taking over poorly functioning ones to make them successful. Instead, the EU will force such companies to the courts involving expensive litigation. Thus struggling companies will go the wall.
+ The EU is stopping the manufacture of home-made teddy bears!!
+ We can no longer trade with other countries unless the EU approve it.
+ The EU prevents the UK government bringing down VAT to below 15%. It also prevents us from reducing or removing VAT from items.
+ The EU can stop us naming water in bottles and where it is bottled.
+ Because the EU dictates hours worked and holiday entitlement, it has already cost UK companies almost £2.5 billion, losing us jobs in the process.
The above are just some of the stupid and not so stupid regulations that affect the UK. These rules will increase if we join the EU fully, until we are totally ruled by Brussels. Who on earth goes around thinking up the new rules, from the length of carrots to the number of peas in a pod? Be sure of one thing – the rules and laws will cripple us, and I do not hesitate in calling the EU a fascist dictatorship. The EU will, as Rome’s envoy, stop Christian freedoms and will order churches to stop evangelising and making converts. BE WARNED. THIS IS OUR LAST OPPORTUNITY TO VOTE FREELY! VOTE IN LABOUR AND YOU WILL VOTE AWAY YOUR FREEDOMS. VOTE LABOUR AND WE WILL ALL BE UNDER A HEAVY YOKE OF BONDAGE.
VOTE LABOUR – GET HARD LABOUR!
5th June, 2001
Tony Blair tells Britain he has no plans to harmonise taxes with those of Europe, and that the EU does not plan to create a federal Europe. He is a liar and manipulator.
Taxes are already being aligned. An armed force is already being put together. Our laws are already being overruled by Brussels, and we are being steamrollered in to joining the Euro system! Who is he kidding?
European union leaders have publicly stated their plans to create a federal Europe. Roman Prodi, EU Commission President, said on February 13th this year: “Are we all clear that we want to build something which can aspire to be a world power? Not just a trading bloc, but a political entity.”
On October 13th, 1999, he mused: “For the first time since the fall of the Roman Empire we have the opportunity to unite Europe.” Just before that, on July 21st, 1999, he said, “I am not embarrassed to suggest that, sometimes, the answer to the concerns of a disillusioned European public is not less Europe, but more.”!
Not forcing us all to bow to the EU in a plan to develop a unified tax system that would cost the British dearly? Perhaps Mr Blair was reading a comic when Frits Bolkestein, the EU Single Market Commissioner, said on July 5th, 2000: “It should be stressed that the zero-rating system in the UK is a transitional measure, pending the adoption of the common VAT system.” Sounds pretty final and fixed to me! And sounds like we are in for a big round of hefty imposed tax increases.
Jacques Chirac, President of France, said on June 27th, 2000: “Those countries that want to proceed further with integration must be allowed to do so without being held back.” Does Mr Blair seriously think Britain can stand against not just the opinions, but also the law, of the other EU countries, if we join fully? If he does, then he is deluded!
And what about the rather confident assertion made by the French Europe Minister, Pierre Moscovici, on June 14th, 2000: “We don’t agree with the Americanisation of the world...We are saying that together we can build a new superpower...and its name will be Europe.” Don’t tell me – Mr Blair was visiting the little boy’s room when his EU colleague said that?
Maybe Mr Blair was finishing his sandwiches when Joschka Fischer, the German Foreign Minister, said on May 12th, 2000: “We must put into place the last brick in the building of European integration, namely political integration.” Doesn’t that kind of talk make your skin crawl? It ought to!
Friends – vote for Labour and we will all suffer. Not just because of higher taxes sent to maintain a modern Roman Empire headed by the pope (for leaders of countries who are Catholic take their lead from their spiritual father), but because a federal Europe will stomp all over the memory of the Reformer-martyrs and reduce Christian freedoms to Romish legal restrictions against evangelisation and true Christian life.
Only today (5th June) the British newspapers report that the so-called dwindling waiting list figures for the NHS are lies, massaged figures invented to make Labour’s claims look good! Mr Blair has lied before and he will go on lying until there will be no need to...when he has committed us fully to the EU.
Vote against Labour while you can. If what I say is wrong, then all you need do in the next election, is to vote them in again. But if I am right, which I am, and you vote-in Labour this time, then you will never again be able to vote for a British government again. In the 1970’s I, and many others, voted against any kind of EU involvement, because we feared that exactly this kind of super-power idea would come to the fore. It is now happening.
It has all been prophesied in scripture, yet so many Christians are ignoring the obvious signs. We are fast entering in to the era of one world government. A federal Europe is just the start. Christian freedoms have already been curtailed and unjust and perverted laws are taking the place of God’s word, all pushed forward by the EU and its obedient slaves.
So, lose the pound and you’ll lose your freedoms. Simple as that! Vote for Labour and you’ll vote away your promises under God. As we have said before, if we vote for the Tories, at least we’ll have time and breathing space to act as a nation with our own laws and decisions.
A one world government, with its attendant anti-Christian laws, will indeed come to pass, for it must. But for Christians to sit back and let it happen without making a stand is an evil disaster in its own right. Be wise this time!
I publicly make these statements and call Christians to vote against Labour, without doubt and without any feeling that I ought to remain silent. We must not stay quiet when godless people try to remove what God has given us. A last news item on this matter will appear in tomorrow’s web page. Read it and be assured that what we are saying is true and urgent.
Labour Must Be Aborted!
"Bible Theology Ministries calls Christians in the UK to vote Conservative on 7 June 2001."
Christian publications take very great care not to upset political parties and never say anything to influence Christian voters. The main reason for this coyness is that the voters are also readers. If they dislike the advice, they’ll just stop buying the publication! Well, here at www.christiandoctrine.net we are free to speak.
It is our plain duty to ask Christians in the UK not to vote for the Labour Party.
Readers should look back at a variety of articles we have published on the matter over the past few months. However, let us sum up our reasons for the advice...
The Labour Party is socialist. Socialism is what we call ‘the blunt-end of communism’, because that is really what it is. We see it in the way it tries to crush everyone in to its own mould. Tony Blair is probably the most dictatorial of all Labour Prime Ministers. He rides rough-shod over everyone, even in his own Party. He pushes through laws without the consent of the people. To gain advantage in the House of Lords he even made many new peers. That, friends, is an abuse of power and spells disaster for us all in the future.
Labour has previously said that it wishes to remove true religion from Britain. It is rushing headlong in to full partnership with the European Union (EU). Many are deceived in to thinking this will be to our benefit. But it will only benefit those who are sycophants of the EU... those with vast stocks of money and power. The EU is Roman Catholic through and through so any vote for Labour by Christians is a vote to destroy their own freedom to worship and to preach the true Gospel of Jesus Christ!
By going fully in to the EU we will at last get rid of the British pound in favour of the ridiculous ‘Euro’...even though in the last few days its value has taken a nose-dive of almost 30%!!
The EU is also building its own armed forces...so any action taken by faceless men in Brussels will commit us all to war, whether or not we agree to it. Indeed, since a Tory leader, Edward Heath, lied through his back teeth to get us in to Europe in 1971, the decline in our freedoms and increase in EU demands have grown at a fast rate.
Tony Blair is Roman Catholic, but for the title. His wife, a champion of homosexuals, is already Catholic. Blair operates through a network of cronies and ignores public outcry. He is a dictator in the communist sense and loves to use lots and lots of unworkable rhetoric not backed with results. Our taxes are rising all the time, the Labour government rushes to obey every little whim of the law-lords of Brussels, even though other countries drag their heels. Every part of our sovereignty is being attacked and dismantled, so as to make Britain just a bland and cooperative slave. Make no mistake – we are not ‘partners’! We are puppets of Rome!
If Labour takes us in to Europe fully we will lose our identity as a nation. And when that happens, we will witness the complete reversal of the Reformation as Rome presents Britain to Mary as her dowry. This can happen in the next few years if we are duped enough to vote Labour back in to office.
We are not saying that other parties are free of sleaze, or that they are that much worse. But Labour is ‘blunt communism’ and linked with Rome. Labour loves to extol the ‘virtues’ of sexual deviants and wishes to remove Christian values from our shores. At least the Tories retain many values we would like to see in our lives!
This election will be vital to our spiritual health as a nation. We will either get rid of a government that stamps about like spoilt children to get their own way, or we will be faced with the worst political and social disaster we can ever imagine. The EU will see to that, as Rome at last gets back the power it lost centuries ago through British martyrs. This is not mere talk or passion – it is real. It is fighting talk. It is a call to Christians to reject the political party that has made a mockery of justice, morality and social concern.
Let us call a halt to the decline. Let us cast off our EU masters and those who get rich on our backs. Let us vote away from Labour. It will be a mistake to use a ‘spoiler vote’. What we need is a deliberate vote for the Tory Party, because it is the better Party at this time, though it will need much reshaping after the vote has been cast.
Yes, as a Christian organisation we are sticking our necks out. But, frankly, it does not bother us! What matters is that we should not vote for a Party that declares its allegiance to a pro-Rome line and to immorality and unsocial acts. It is, then, a Christian call to retain our Christian heritage for as long as we can. Once we vote these away it will be too late. And even if this call is ignored or is listened to too late, at least Christians in the UK will have stood their ground. The vote this time is not just for a better Britain – it is for a more scriptural approach to government. God help us all if Labour wins again this time!
"The effectual fervent prayer of a righteous man availeth much."

Prince Charles claim of "Official Prince elect of the Holy Roman Empire."
Roman Law and British Colony.
Yes, the "'Civil Law,' 'Roman Law' and 'Roman Civil Law' are
convertible phrases, meaning the same system of jurisprudence."
Black's 3rd p 332.
Is the United States a colony of Britain?
Britain was a colony of the Roman Empire. So, if the United
States is a colony of Britain, they and the US are apart of the Roman
Empire.
Could this be true?
Who is the king of this Roman Empire? There are several who are
vying at this time for that crown.
"One is Prince Charles who claims officially to be
the "Prince Elect of the Holy Roman Empire".
At the time of the writing of the Bible NT, Roman order was the
beast of the world. Now the New World Order is the image of the
beast. The United
States and Federal Government is as much apart of that as
anything.
Yeshua, a.k.a. Jesus, went toe to toe with the beast and
established his kingdom with Roman recognition [see message on the
cross, a Roman proclamation]
Now it is our turn.
Have you got the faith?
> When Lincoln brushed all this law and tradition aside, he replaced
it with the only law that was available as a codified
> whole, i.e., with the codified laws of Rome, by Justinian.
>
> There are some who will ask why Lincoln did not import the civil
law of Rome. The answer is, the idea of Roman civil law

law and was always a military state in which the

insatiable commercial appetite.
This is not exactly true if you look at the big picture of
Roman History. Rome was originally a Republic which became more
federal and empirical after its own civil war. It was at this time
the Roman Senate elected its first emperor, Augustus, who of course
was actually Octavius. Originally Rome was under Janis as far as
religious gods are concerned.
There are many things we should understand about Rome in order
to understand the US. In 29 B.C. Gaius Octavianus marched into Rome
as the "savior of the Republic" and was given the title of Augustus
by the Senate.
He was then legally granted, under constitutional forms and
limitations, the position Emperator, commander in chief of all
military and naval forces, for a period of ten years. He could set
foreign policy and establish treaties [Emperator, emperatoris
m.commander in chief Collins L.E. Dict. '62].
August held 2 other offices to which he was elected.
Principas civitas, That is to say 'The first citizen' or chief
executive officer of Rome a municipality.
And the last office he requested to be created by the senate
was that of god.
Actually he was not just the god of the Roman Empire but
the 'Apo Theos', The originator of gods..
