France Wants "Vanguard" To Lead EU

“French president Francois Hollande has called for a stronger more harmonised eurozone following a politically turbulent few weeks in which crisis with Greece has exposed the fault-lines in how the single currency is managed... He called for a vanguard of countries that would lead the eurozone, which should have its own government, a ‘specific budget’ and its own parliament” (EU Observer, July 20, 2015). French prime minister Manuel Valls said “the vanguard should include the six founding countries of the EU: France, Germany, Italy, Belgium, Luxembourg and the Netherlands. He said France would prepare ‘concrete proposals’ in the coming weeks. ‘We must learn the lessons and go much further,’ he added, referring to the Greek crisis” (ibid.).

The Bible has long prophesied of a final European beast power comprised of ten kings who give their power over to the beast for a short time (Revelation 17:11-14). As the EU continues to undergo changes, watch for the emergence of this final beast—with ten leaders or nations who willingly surrender their political and economic sovereignty to a single entity that the Bible calls a beast. This final configuration in Europe could come soon. For more on this topic, be sure to read The Beast of Revelation: Myth, Metaphor or Soon-Coming Reality?
