Javier Solana ... Antichrist?

Overview
By Herb Peters, founder of Fulfilled ProphecyWritten December 28, 2006

A Little Background

Fifteen years ago I began following a story that today needs to be told. What started as a discovery of a 10-nation military alliance in Western Europe may have become the actual record of the fulfillment of the end-time prophecies — all the way to Daniel’s 70th Week.

In the early 1990s, when I first began my journey as a newspaper columnist, I was not aware of the many different ways to interpret the ancient prophecies of Scripture. My religious experience was limited to a long family history of a literal belief in the Bible and a dispensational approach to the subject of end-time prophecy. So, what follows is not intended as an argument for a particular method of biblical interpretation. What follows is simply my experience.

In the Old Testament book of Daniel we read:

And he will make a firm covenant with the many for one week, but in the middle of the week he will put a stop to sacrifice and grain offering; and on the wing of abominations will come one who makes desolate, even until a complete destruction, one that is decreed, is poured out on the one who makes desolate (Daniel 9:27 New America Standard Bible)
.
In my religious circles, it is commonly believed the passage above foretells the rise of a new leader from out of a revived Roman Empire who will confirm, strengthen, or make strong, a covenant, agreement, or treaty, with many for a period of seven years. Israel will be included in this covenant. After 3 1/2 years, the leader will put a stop to Israel’s restored Temple Mount rituals. In other passages from Daniel, we learn that this leader will appear among a 10-nation alliance (Daniel 7:7-8). And, on his rise to power, the leader will subdue three kings from the 10-nation alliance (Daniel 7:24). And, in the New Testament book of Revelation we learn that this leader will somehow be identified with the number 666 (Revelation 13:18).

The Unreported News

Friends, everything that’s written above is what appears to be happening. Today, for the first time in 2000 years, we’re seeing the Roman Empire being successfully revived through a European reunification process that has come to be known as the European Union (EU). And, as I stated at the beginning, a 10-nation alliance has also appeared in Europe. On January 1, 1995, Greece became the 10th nation of a military alliance known as the Western European Union (WEU). These 10 nations are members of both NATO and the European Union (EU). What binds these 10 nations together is a mutual defense obligation under Article Five of the modified Brussels Treaty. These 10 nations are also known as the Brussels Treaty Powers.

In December of 1998, at their Vienna summit, the EU’s heads created the Office of High Representative for Common Foreign and Security Policy for the European Union. The holder of this new office would be empowered by the many EU member states to direct their common foreign and security policy toward the Russian Federation, the Ukraine, the Balkans and — biblically significant — the Mediterranean. The funny thing is, out of over 1,150 documents that were generated by the summit, the document that created the post of High Representative was number 666.

For me, as a reporter, here is where the real political intrigue begins. While the EU heads were busy in Vienna creating the post of High Representative, Javier Solana, as then Secretary General of NATO, was busy restructuring NATO for the post Cold War era. What this meant to some European leaders would later become evident. Now that the Soviet Union was no longer a military threat, dependence on America was no longer necessary. So, Solana divided NATO into two strategic commands — one in Norfolk, Virginia, for America, and one in Brussels for Europe. In other words, Solana split the Atlantic Alliance down the middle. He turned the 10 WEU nations into a second pillar of NATO.

In October 1999, when his job as the head of NATO was ending, Javier Solana became the EU’s first High Representative. Solana also became the Secretary General of the Council of the European Union — the EU’s true seat of power. The following month in November, Solana was made Secretary General of the 10-nation WEU alliance. Needless to say, these three positions made Solana a powerful new player in this modern-day revival of the old Roman Empire.

More political intrigue was to come. On June 5, 2000, the 10 WEU nations adopted their Assembly Recommendation 666. The importance of this document was to recommend to the Council of the European Union that the 10 Brussels Treaty Powers should be kept together as the EU’s new military wing. It also recommended giving the High Representative emergency powers — powers even the EU’s president doesn’t have. Since Solana was Secretary General of both the WEU and the Council, Recommendation 666 was actually Solana recommending action to Solana.

The following month, France — one of the 10 WEU nations — took over the EU’s six-month rotating presidency. Immediately Solana, along with the French EU presidency, began implementing Recommendation 666. The Assembly of the WEU became the oversight organ for the EU’s new military wing. The infamous Solana Decision soon followed. This decision removed from public view all documents that the Council (Solana) thought should be kept secret. The move was interpreted by some to be a coup.

The Solana Doctrine

In March 2003, without gaining UN approval, America launched the Iraqi war. America’s unilateral action once again shattered the EU’s illusion of having a common foreign policy. Some EU nations supported America’s Middle East venture; others strongly opposed it. The result was a fractured alliance with little hope of being mended. A few months later, the impossible happened.

In June 2003, Solana delivered his 10-page security doctrine to the EU heads at their summit in Greece. It was titled, A Secure Europe in a Better World. It had three basic parts. One: It called for establishing economic and political stability through the EU’s neighborhood. Two: It called for establishing a new international order. Three: It called for increasing the EU’s civil and military capabilities to better combat rogue states and weapons of mass destruction.

It was amazing to see the reaction to Solana’s new doctrine. It not only managed to pull back together the bickering EU states; the same month it led to a strategic treaty with Washington. Although many elements of the treaty were kept secret, it’s known to have established a joint effort between the EU and America to start fighting the international war against terror together.

The Israel Connection

As far as end-time prophecy is concerned, these events — as intriguing as they are — would be meaningless without a connection to God’s geo-strategic center of prophecy — the land of Israel. And, it turns out that they are — in a big way. In November 1995, Javier Solana successfully negotiated the Euro-Mediterranean Partnership for Peace (Euromed). The agreement was between the then 15 EU member states and 12 Mediterranean states — including Israel and the Palestinian Authority. In fact, some believe that it may have been Solana’s skill in negotiating this agreement that caused then Secretary of State Warren Christopher to recommend Solana as head of NATO to President Clinton.

The goal of the Euromed project is to create a region of peace and stability across Europe and the Mediterranean. That being the case, it’s no wonder looking at Euromed maps is like looking at maps of the old Roman Empire. The Mediterranean was once considered a Roman lake. Soon, if the Euromed project works, it will become the EU’s lake.

The Euromed, however, failed to deliver. So, Solana introduced his European Neighborhood Policy (ENP). The purpose of the ENP was to strengthen, or make strong, his faltering Euromed scheme. The ENP is a huge package of financial deals for each participating Euromed nation. These deals include Action Plans that are custom tailored for each participating nation. The idea is, by monitoring each nation’s progress to their Action Plan, the Euromed project can be strengthened and made to work.

The ENP was implemented under existing funding instruments. However, the existing instruments were not sufficient to meet the ENP’s goals. So, Solana was tasked with creating a new funding instrument — the European Neighborhood and Partnership Instrument (ENPI). When the new funding instrument takes over, the ENP will become the “New” ENP. This will happen on January 1, 2007. What’s prophetically significant is that the ENPI is a seven-year funding instrument. In other words, the New ENP is designed to strengthen, or make strong, the 1995 Euromed for a period of seven years.

Solana’s New Seat

Now that the French and Dutch voters have rejected the EU’s new Constitution, the EU heads are facing a serious crisis. Existing treaties give the EU heads until 2009 to make certain necessary changes to the internal workings of the Union. The Constitution would have allowed these changes. However, without the Constitution in force, a way must be found to accomplish the changes within the legal framework of existing treaties. This has set the EU heads on a desperate, two-track approach — implement all the changes that are possible, while pushing ahead the Constitution.

Because the Euromed project is a primary concern, an important change needed is for the High Representative to have a seat within the EU’s Commission. Since the Commission is in charge of the EU’s purse strings, it’s naturally desirable to have Solana present there on January 1, 2007, in order to oversee and administer his New ENP. So, at the December European Council, the EU heads gave their approval to have Solana seated within the Commission — without the constitutional changes.

Solana’s Mandate

Also at the December European Council, the EU heads approved a new Middle East peace plan sponsored by Spain, Italy and France. As a result of the decision, Solana was given his necessary EU mandate to take the plan to the other three members of the Quartet — the US, the UN and Russia — and start a fresh effort to kick-start the stalled Middle East peace process. This led to January’s so-called “Madrid+15 Conference,” where closed door talks appeared to do exactly that — kick-start the peace process.

Some Loose Ends

For those with a similar understanding of end-time prophecy, the implication of these events are obvious — we may be entering the seven-year period known as Daniel’s 70th Week. However, for this to be true, a few more elements should also be in place. The prophecy tells us that the entire 70 weeks are for the Jewish people and their holy city Jerusalem (Daniel 9:24). So, it stands to reason that this should be true for the final week also. And, as we read earlier, the prophecy also tells us that in the middle of the week the covenant will be broken and the coming leader will stop the Temple sacrifices in Jerusalem. After this event happens, the leader and his 10-king alliance will begin a religious war against God’s elect.

War Against the Saints

On December 18 and 19, the UN’s new Alliance of Civilizations (AoC) was formally christened. The AoC’s stated goal is to avoid a clash of civilizations by building a bridge between the West and the Muslim world. While Kofi Annan was kicking off the new global peace project in New York, British Prime Minister Tony Blair was touring the Middle East pushing the AoC’s agenda. Blair was calling for moderate Arab states to enter into an alliance with the West in order to fight religious extremism and confront Iran. Friends, Blair’s choice of words was no coincidence.

You see, the AoC was proposed by Spanish Prime Minister Jose Luis Rodr’guez Zapatero. The UN initiative was co-sponsored by Zapatero and Turkish Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan. Zapatero’s main concern is controlling immigration from the south and the completion of the EU’s Euromed. Erdogan, on the other hand, is concerned about the threat his and other moderate Muslim states face from the religious extremists. The AoC was created to provide solutions for both concerns. Not only will the AoC bring on board the moderate Arab world, it will serve as a vehicle from which they can mount a religious war against all who oppose.

The UN plans to use the Euromed and the ENP as the framework in which to begin implementing the AoC. If successful, the idea is to extend it globally. A World Parliament of eminent religious leaders is to follow. Also to soon follow is the appointment of an AoC High Representative — a person of renowned political and religious qualifications.

If it makes it through the UN process, then the AoC will become operational in September 2009, just in time to be fully functional in 2010 — the middle of the seven-year period.

An Uneasy Conclusion

Friends, it’s my belief the entire end-time picture may be before us. And, it’s my fear that, because of doctrinal differences — some very minor — many of God’s people will continue to be uninformed. There is much more information. But, in light of all that’s been presented, I don’t think more information should be necessary.

If we’re entering the 70th Week, then we should expect a gradual peace to begin dawning over the Middle East. We should see Israel being allowed to go back to her Temple sacrifices and many of our own religious leaders seduced by the AoC. Then, in 2010, it should all fall apart.

Stay tuned!

Lets Talk....Heart


This is the rough draft of my first sermonette..EVER! It went over well, considering it was given to the homeless who HAD to listen in order to get their meal ( talk about a captive audience lol ) Even though they was forced to listen, i still got a lot of "Amens" from the crowd of the 20ish people that were there. I would like to also say, This was given on mothers day, and with my mom in her last stage of her disease, it was a very emotional day for me, so preaching was more then difficult. Thank the Lord for the divine assistance he provided me! *please note, the following is not word for word, as i wasnt recording it, but my best recollection of the sermonette.. plus its "translated" from a sermon to text, which means in order for it to make ANY sence to you, the reader, i had to modify it a bit




Grant County Mission 5/13/07(Mothers Day)






I want to talk to you today, not as a preacher , but instead i want this to be a man to man discussion. i first want to talk about heart. Not just the heart of believers, but the heart of humanity. I am not talking the heart that pumps blood through our veins, or signals death when it quits working, but the heart, emotions, and the conscience that makes man superior to the animal kingdom.

I want each and every one of you to do this for me. pick up your bible, if you dont have one handy, just visualize a bible in your hand. what do you "see"? what IS the bible? Most people when asked this, states something similar to " the bible is the book of Gods rules and laws"

Contrary to what you may have been taught, or had preached to you, this is NOT what the bible is!

The spirit has shown me that God is NOT a redundant God, that he doesnt go about repeating himself... This may puzzle you... but why would God gives us a book of rules, when he has already installed ALL the laws into the heart of each and every person that has ever been born!

An interesting thing is, you can go to a place that has NEVER heard the name Jesus Christ, but these people still know its wrong to kill, to steal, to commit adultry..


Why?? BECAUSE GOD HAS INSTALLED ALL LAWS IN ALL HEARTS FOR ALL TIMES!! HELLO??!!!


For those of you who dont know CS Lewis, or his story, let me say he wrote the chronicles of Narnia series, and was a devout atheist.

He had explained away all aspects of there being a GOD... well, all aspects except the universal laws being imbedded in ALL peoples hearts.

This one aspect was all it took to make him a christian! Praise our Lord!
From his book, mere christianity he states: "It is after you have realised that there is a real Moral Law, and a Power behind the law, and that you have broken that law and put yourself wrong with that Power--it is after all this, and not a moment sooner, that Christianity begins to talk."
Lewis argues that there is a universal human conception about right and wrong. The simplest example is what humans regard to be "fair." We have a built-in sense of justice. We have a universal sense of the type of behavior we admire, and that which we despise.
We can tell virtues from vices. This leads to a concept of Law and an Author of the Law that governs human behavior. The Law isn't the same as the law of gravity because in the latter case, we have no choice but to obey physical laws. The Law that governs human conduct is distinct, then, from the "way the universe works."
We know what we ought to do, but we don't do it. We are not animals who are always and exclusively driven by desire. We do things that contradict our personal desires all the time. Sometimes we give in to our desires and then feel guilty when our conscience tells us that we behaved contrary to the Law
Ok, so God has put the laws in our hearts, and he is not a redundant God, then just what IS the bible?
The bible is a book of seeds. What do you do with seed? you cant keep them in their burpee packs and expect the flowers to grow! you need to bury the seed, water them, nuture them, and give them what they need, THEN the flowers will come.
What i am getting at, is when you look at the bible as a seed or roadmap for life, then you BURY the seed in your heart, you water then seed with prayer, and you nurture the seeds by living correctly, and Thank you Jesus, the flowers will come!!! HELLO???!!!
What is interesting is the self-help industry is a billion dollar industry, and getting bigger every year..
people go to PEOPLE to find out how their lives are messed up, or how to live right.. "how to make a million dollars in real estate" "get rich on ebay" "turn government seizures into profits"
I have always loved words, and at one time thought of writing one of these books. it would have been very short though "Tonys' Guide To Becoming Wealthy"
(page 1) Write a self help or get rich quick book.
(page 2) The End.
Im sorry, i dont turn to PEOPLE when i need help, for me their is only ONE i turn to when i need guidence. Thats the ONE who has already given me what i need...
lets look at a couple verses.. i know your reading them here, BUT if you have a bible close, read the actual scripture... this will help you in burying the seeds in your heart.
I'm using the New International Version Bible.
2 Peter 1:3 His divine power HAS GIVEN us everything we need for life and godliness through our knowledge of him who called us by his own glory and goodness.
& 1 Corinthians 4:8 Already you have all you want! Already you have become rich! You have become kings—and that without us! How I wish that you really had become kings so that we might be kings with you!
I want you all to notice, that both verses use PAST tense..
This is because GOD has ALREADY provided everything we need, as long as WE plant the seed!
God knew the ending, from the the begginning!
God knew what you need RIGHT now, even before you were born!
And he provided for it by giving you the book of seed to sow into your heart! HELLO??!!!
Tony, i need money Use the bible, the proper seeds are in there.
Tony, i am so lonely Use the bible, the proper seeds are in there.
Tony, i am so sick and hurt so bad. Use the bible, the proper seeds are in there.
THERE IS NOTHING.. LET ME REPEAT THAT ONE MORE TIME.. THERE IS NOTHING THAT YOU NEED, HAVE NEEDED OR WILL NEED AT ANY POINT IN YOUR LIFE THAT GOD HASNT ALREADY GIVEN YOU THE SEED FOR IN THE BIBLE! Hallelujah!!!!
We praise you Jesus for giving us what we need, even before we need it!
I had intended to get into this a little more, and next month when i come back, i will, but on the way here today, the Spirit told me that there is someone out there, whose heart is calling for God, but do to your bad times in church before, you are afraid to commit again Brother, i feel you, i was there a short while ago. even after i made my commit again after many many years, i still dealt with things not going my way. my mother is in the last stages of her disease and its only a matter of time.. my finances are in the toilet.
it doesnt seem fair that bad things happen to good people (and good things to bad people).. but during my trials, God has shown me so much, our relationship has grown stronger, and i have reached the next spiritual level..
After going to the bible, God has shown me why bad things happen to good people.. and it all revolves around living in a fallen world... no matter how good we are, the fact is, we are never good enough, never free from sin.
But in any circumstance, no matter how negative, God has a way out.
There is nothing that happens in a believers life that God hasnt allowed or decreed. before Satans puts his hand in your life, he has to gets God's OK with it!
Genesis 50:20 puts it perfectly, and this has became my favorite scripture.
You intended to harm me, but God intended it for good to accomplish what is now being done, the saving of many lives.
No matter how bad things look, God wouldnt have let you face it, if it wasnt for the best. HELLO??!!
You know, there is countless stories of people who are in seriouse accidents, and while recovering in the hospital, they find god.. or people who get lost while driving, and they stumble upon that perfect job..
You know, God has no problem with you spending 3 months in the hospital, if it will bring you back to him, and that 3 months of pain, is nothing compared to the ETERNITY of all the good things that you will recieve in heaven!
There is a great theologen ( sp?) name Charlse Ryrie that sums it up perfectly.
" The wisdom of God tells us that God will bring about the BEST possible results, by the BEST possible means, for the MOST possible people, for the LONGEST possible time"
Just take a second to think that one through.
Now you may be thinking... how can what i am going through be for the best???
its all so negative and painful. if you look into the scripture you will find the answers..
i wont give them all as my time limits about up here, but let me run them down for you quickly. why good things happen to good people.
first is the consequences of your own actions. or let me state "what you sow, so shall you reap".. you cant go around being mean or treating people bad, and expect them to show you kindness.
second is Satans interfearance in your life. and as i stated, without Gods approval, even that has no authority in your life
Third reason is to further the cause of His kingdom, and Gods plan for redemption and finally, it is used as a catalyst for spiritual growth or change.
it shows us area's that need work in our lives, teaches us to depend less on ourselves and more on God, it shows us Gods grace and power, and it takes away our ability to claim ownership over Gods blessings and shows that all that is given to us through his grace, is from him, as there is no way we could have done it ourselves!
i do want to give you a final bit of scripture before i go
this is from John 9:1-5
As he went along, he saw a man blind from birth. His disciples asked him, "Rabbi, who sinned, this man or his parents, that he was born blind?" "Neither this man nor his parents sinned," said Jesus, "but this happened so that the work of God might be displayed in his life. As long as it is day, we must do the work of him who sent me. Night is coming, when no one can work. While I am in the world, I am the light of the world."
For those of you who wants a relationship with the Lord, and the peace that comes with knowing that as a believer all of your needs have already been met through jesus christ, and eternal life is promised to all who believe, please open you heart, i know you can feel the tugging of the spirit, and you can hear Jesus knocking, just say this prayer and accept the salvation through christ, and the Holy spirit will transform your life like you will not believe.
