With most all other prophetic signals in view for the coming Tribulation (Daniel’s seventieth week), it’s more than intriguing that one stage-setting ingredient at the center of that horrendous era seems to be out of sync with developments. Or perhaps the incongruity represents the final element about to be entered into the construction of Antichrist’s power base.

The European Union is in what looks to be a weakening—not an increasingly dominant—state of affairs. The following think piece offers some information about the troubles within this developing power base for the Antichrist regime during the Tribulation:

The European Union (“EU”) is facing criticism and calls for reform or abolition, with Elon Musk recently calling for its abolition and the Trump administration’s national security strategy labeling it a failed project.

There are three distinct camps of commentators on the EU’s future: Europhiles who support the EU, Eurosceptics/Reformists who want to reform it, and EU abolitionists who want to dissolve it.

The reformist camp is strikingly large and contains most of the officially tolerated nationalist movements in the EU.  In the following, J.K. argues for reform. But this reform would be so significant that it would create something new: it would involve a wholesale replacement of the EU and its sister institutions.…

Western political discourse is entering a time of re-evaluation of the core concepts and institutions that have ruled us since the 1950s. The European Union is not above this kind of re-evaluation and the ideological battles over its nature and future are not going to abate any time soon. (“EU Needs Massive Reform: There needs to be a wholesale replacement of the EU and its organisations,” by Rhoda Wilson, The Expose, December 23, 2025)

The troubles range from internal power scuffles to cultural and ideological differences that are so profound as to make future cohesion very unlikely at best, and to cause dissolution of the EU as presently constituted at worst.

At the center of the tumult within the EU seems to be the US and the most, shall I say, interesting president of history. Pressures from the Trump administration seem to be at the heart of the movement that is about to force reforms. We will simply have to continue to watch and see with regard to prophetic outcome.

History has proved to the satisfaction of most Bible prophecy scholars that the first four world kingdoms described in Nebuchadnezzar’s dream have come and gone. The Babylonian kingdom was the first. The Medes and Persians comprised the second world empire. The Greek Empire under Alexander the Great was the third. The Roman Empire, which split in two, with capitals in Rome and Constantinople (now Istanbul, Turkey), was the fourth great world kingdom.

One is left to come upon the scene—the final world governmental system represented in Nebuchadnezzar’s dream as the feet and toes made of iron mixed with clay. This kingdom, we believe, is far along in the process of coming together today in the form of the European Union. The fifth world empire symbolized in the statue is prophesied to be an extension of the fourth kingdom. That is exactly what the EU is—an extension of the ancient Roman Empire. It is, we are convinced, the feet and toes of the man-image, the reviving of the unity that was once Europe in all its power and glory. Yet, despite the tremendous power the final form of the Roman Empire will have, the clay mixed with iron seems to indicate it will have significant weaknesses.

The European Union is, like America, presently at the forefront of calling for Israel and the Palestinians to come to the peace table. It will be just such a peace negotiation, according to Daniel 9:26–27, out of which will come the “covenant made with death and hell” (Isaiah 28:15, 18). Antichrist, “the prince that shall come,” will personally guarantee that covenant. But the prophetic Word says that “when they shall say peace and safety, then, sudden destruction cometh upon them as travail upon a woman with child, and they shall not escape” (1 Thessalonians 5:3).

The Islamic world’s hatred for the Jews and Israel is satanic at its core. No amount of negotiating for peace ever will change that. Israel’s neighbors want the Jewish state forever done away with—expunged from what they consider their land. The Arab leaders, all dictators to one degree or another, must keep the region in foment against Israel to assure that their dictatorships stay in power. The “covenant made with death and hell,” according to Isaiah the prophet, must somehow deal with this great hatred to achieve the false peace of that satanically produced covenant.

The European Union, Antichrist’s future base of authority, is rapidly growing toward its full power that will produce a leader of unprecedented dominance who will bring about that false peace.

The Bible states that seven out of ten “kings” will back a world leader who will forcibly rip power from the other three and give it to himself. With all other prophetic indicators seemingly in full view upon the immediate geopolitical horizon, the EU in turmoil seems to be another profound ingredient that’s been added to the fascinating mix.

Certainly, the current flux affecting the EU represents weakness that looks difficult to overcome.

However, the man of sin will have satanically imbued powers. This will likely include the ability to overcome problems such as those currently observed within his future power base. Meantime, the devil will be in the details of preparing his son of perdition’s platform of tyranny.

So, during the New Year, unless the Rapture preempts our ability to watch from this earthly platform of observation, we will likely see fascinating changes. That is, there will almost certainly be dramatic changes in the European Union model in setting the stage for construction of the world power structure represented in Daniel’s interpretation of King Nebuchadnezzar’s dream (read Daniel chapter 2).

***Pakistan Ministry Mission Appeal from Terry James***

To my Rapture Ready and Prophecyline family: I again solicit your support in spreading God’s Word in Pakistan.

Your generosity in past missionary efforts has just been wonderful beyond measure. I again prayerfully ask that you open your spiritual heart in helping fund the distribution of the books I’ve given to our pastor in Pakistan to use while he preaches and teaches about our Lord Jesus Christ.

Pastor Anil Jasper translated my little book, Prophecy Power: Strength from God to Face Your Future. He has now also translated into the Urdu language my small book, HeavenVision: Glimpses into Glory.

This is the book in which I tell about the widow-maker heart attack I had on Good Friday of April 22, 2011. I describe my experience of being somewhere in the heavenly sphere each time my heart stopped. The voluminous medical documentation of that medical emergency shows why my survival was so unusual that the cardiological association gave me their “Patient of the Year” award and asked me to speak to their convention.

Of course, at the heart of my testimony is the salvation message that Jesus alone can save the soul from an eternity apart from God the Father.

The first book Pastor Anil translated and continues to distribute to the people of his country, Prophecy Power, remains a great witness of Christ’s saving power. HeavenVision now adds a second witnessing tool that will help the pastor win souls for God’s eternal family.

I have special permission from my publishers to donate these books in this ministry. I receive no compensation whatsoever from their distribution in Pakistan.

Your donations are essential to carry out this all-important mission. I believe your contributions will result in great heavenly rewards some eternal day when we all come before our Lord at the judgment seat of Christ.

We need funding to print and distribute these books beginning this month.

May the Lord bless you mightily for helping in this mission to the people of Pakistan.

Again, I don’t have a way to accept credit cards or PayPal-type contributions. I ask that you send checks to the address below.

Please put in the line at the bottom of your check: For our Pakistani Mission.

Also, please include your email address so I can properly thank you. Being blind now since I was fifty-one, postage and preparing envelopes, etc., is beyond my ability. But emails are easily within my capability, and I certainly want to thank each of you.

Please make the check out to me—Terry James—and send to:

This planet is experiencing an invasion which, according to God’s Prophetic Word, will be a repeat of a past invasion (Luke 17:26-30).

The world changed drastically in the 20th century. The most powerful time of change came in mid-century, with World War II and the Jewish Holocaust, accompanied by the explosion of the first atomic bomb and that horrific weapon’s first use on Hiroshima, then Nagasaki, Japan. There swiftly followed the discovery of the Dead Sea scrolls at Qumran and the birth of modern Israel, coinciding with the formation of the United Nations.

Technology, the development of which had moved at a snail’s pace throughout history until the late 19th century, seemed to ignite in rocket-like fashion.

Inventions burst forth from the time of the steam engine to the telegraph, electric power, then to powered flight…and, well, you know the rest.

President John F. Kennedy, in his January 20, 1961 inaugural address, summarized the position that generation held on history’s timeline: “…man holds in his mortal hands the power to abolish all forms of human poverty, and all forms of human life…”

The very year the president was assassinated, America’s leaders chose to gravitate toward the latter option verbalized by Kennedy two years earlier—to begin to “abolish human life.” That year –1963—the Supreme Court elected, without inviting America’s electorate to participate in the decision, to kick God out of public schools. This downward spiral of moving away from the Life-Giver –God—and toward death, eventuated ten years later with Roe v. Wade and the murder of almost 70 million babies in their mothers’ wombs since.

Something profound had happened to this human sphere. When one dissects the strange dichotomy –the fantastic progress in man’s knowledge and technological achievement, and at the same time the geometric progression of violence and degeneration of morality in this nation and the world—a truly empirical conclusion must acknowledge that something eerie is going on. Planet Earth is experiencing dynamic rearrangement that even the most fervent apostle of the faith system called evolution must be hard-pressed to explain.

God’s Word, the Bible, through Jesus and the Old and New Testament prophets, however, are not hard-pressed to explain. This world is becoming as it was in the days of Noah and Lot (read Luke 17:26-30). Planet Earth is experiencing an invasion–not from Mars, the Pleiades, or some other far-distant star system, but from right here, where Earth’s trouble has stemmed since the leader of the invasion first entered man’s sphere of existence. The invasion is interdimensional, not extraterrestrial.

Lucifer, in his first assault on God’s creation called man, first deceived Eve, then convinced Adam to disobey God, with whom Adam and his wife had walked perfectly. From that point, Satan attacked humanity with a vengeance, his minions even intermingling their seed with humankind.

The chief Scripture that both tells of the serpent’s (Satan’s) war against humankind and the fact that God promised that woman’s (Eve’s) seed would ultimately crush the Devil’s head, is found here: “And I will put enmity between thee and the woman, and between thy seed and her seed; it shall bruise thy head, and thou shalt bruise his heel” (Gen. 3:15).

What I want to look at in this Scripture is the fact that the invaders (Lucifer’s minions, the one-third of the angels who rebelled in heaven and were expelled) possess “seed.” They would go on to intermingle their “seed” with the “seed” of the woman, Scripture tells us:

“There were giants in the earth in those days; and also after that, when the sons of God came in unto the daughters of men, and they bare children to them, the same became mighty men which were of old, men of renown” (Gen. 6:4).

We again are given the abominable mingling of the fallen angels’ seed with the seed of human women:

“And the angels which kept not their first estate, but left their own habitation, he hath reserved in everlasting chains under darkness unto the judgment of the great day. Even as Sodom and Gomorrah, and the cities about them in like manner, giving themselves over to fornication, and going after strange flesh, are set forth for an example, suffering the vengeance of eternal fire” (Jude 1:6-7).

Just as the Sodomites–the homosexuals of the doomed city of Sodom– committed fornication with “strange flesh” (with those of the same sex), the fallen angels, Jude is saying, went after “strange flesh” (those of a different creation –human women).

Jesus said it would be the same as in that antediluvian time when He returns in the second coming. The minions of Satan will again be in the process of contaminating or corrupting human genetics.

God had to judge that world, killing all except Noah and his seven family members, and animals selected from Earth’s animal populations.

The latter-day invasion is manifested–I’m convinced—through the strange, unexplained UFOs, apparitions, stigmata, and other things reported by even quite credible people. Just watch or read of this in the many media outlets available today to understand just how much of these things are going on today.

Additionally, we’ve all heard about the recent group of former military people, pilots, scientists and government officials–now retired–who have come forward to try to get out the message that, indeed, these things are being witnessed. Recent reports of UAP (Unidentified Aerial Phenomena) from credible sources make clear that there is an invasion of some dimension likely going on. Mainstream news media and government, by and large, are still stonewalling efforts to get to the truth about these anomalous matters.

The main point to make is that this invasion is but one more signal of where we stand on God’s prophetic timeline.

Are there “nephilim”–giants, as in the days of the Genesis 6 report–again coming into view? Is there presently Luciferian intervention into the very genetic make-up of humankind? I’m of the opinion that the answer is “yes,” at least in that the rulers of the darkness of this world (Ephesians 6:12) are influencing human scientists and others through genetic tampering and other covert projects.

I will speculate a bit here by way of a question or two.

Why is the “son of perdition” declared by Jesus himself to be lost from the beginning (Jn. 17:12)? Isn’t everyone to have a chance to repent and be saved—to be given their day in court–whether at the bema (judgment seat of Christ) or at the great white throne?

Yet this man of sin–the son of perdition, the Antichrist “beast” and his sidekick, the false prophet, are apparently not given their day in court. Both are simply thrown into the lake of fire. They are the first two to be thrown in that eternally burning place of punishment. There will be none other in that place prepared for the devil and his angels until Satan is thrown in that fiery lake at the end of the 1,000-year reign of Christ. Then, they will be joined by the billions upon billions of lost souls who are cast in the lake of fire following the great white throne judgment of Revelation 20:11-15.

Here is my speculation, but one based upon a good scriptural foundation, I think.

The beasts described in Revelation chapter 13 –both the world leader, who will demand worship, and the false prophet, who will force people to worship him—might well be without souls, in the sense that human beings have souls. Human souls can be redeemed. Angels cannot be redeemed, once lost –as in the angels who rebelled with Lucifer.

It is prudent to ask if the Antichrist and the false prophet are the offspring of the angels– nephilim, the result of the intermingling of the serpent seed with the seed of human women. Certainly, they will perform great feats as Genesis Chapter 6 reports of the angelic/human offspring of the pre-Flood times.

Are Antichrist and the false prophet to be nephilim?

If I might again interject a brief commercial for Gary Ritter’s and my novel series The Rapture Dialogues; The Nephilim Imperative; and The Minion Protocols) This area of end-time invasion is what is covered in, I believe, an informative as well as an entertaining way.

I believe you will find the series fascinating, as Mr. Spock of Star Trek would say. Although fiction, the series is wrapped in truth from God’s Word—and in Bible prophecy, in particular. These novels may be purchased on Amazon.

However, there is nothing fictional about this invasion of Planet Earth I believe we are experiencing and are about to experience in more dramatic and traumatic ways in this New Year of 2026.

The one Invasion, of course, that we who Know the Lord Jesus Christ as our Savior and Lord are longing for is the Moment He Calls from the Clouds of Glory. Our Blessed Hope is that our ultimate Redemption will happen at any twinkling of an eye Moment –that instant of Rapture!

Here is how to instruct all with whom we come in contact to look forward to that Blessed Invasion from Heaven, rather than the end-times invasion by Satan and his hordes Forewarned in Revelation chapter 12.

“That if you will confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus, and will believe in your heart that God has raised Him from the dead, you will be saved. For with the heart man believes unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto Salvation” (Romans 10:9-10).
