The Australian liberal party is in trouble. As we approach the next election it will struggle because it is impossible to reconcile both its conservative and liberal ideals. It is usually successful when it concentrates on its conservative strengths but at the moment it is led by a liberal at heart who naturally finds himself in growing agreement with the progressive socialists on same sex marriage, climate change and identity politics. This brings him into conflict with many conservatives in his party who treasure our national and religious traditions, our freedoms and our heritage of Western civilisation. They feel betrayed.

The protection of these values against mass immigration, global governance and socialist anti-colonialism has already seen liberal voters moving their allegiance to Pauline Hanson, and the ‘Australian Conservatives’ , thus the party seems to be heading for self destruction.

This movement mirrors what we have seen in the US  under Trump and  in a  growing number of countries in Europe who are rejecting their traditional parties and voting instead for little known populist parties who are actually prepared to listen to the dissatisfaction  of many who despise the looney left’s agenda of open borders, political correctness and identity politics, which threaten their religious freedoms and Western Christian heritage.

All this adds up to movement towards the right, which in German led Europe does not bode well in the light of end time Bible prophecy about a coming European dictator which it calls ‘The Beast’.  The only thing missing there at this point, is a pope who does not favour the progressive left, for the biblical ‘Beast’ will be assisted in his plan for world dominion by the unifying support of a great false church and its religious miracle working leader.

Despite their temporary success for some three years, the return of Jesus Christ will see their defeat and destruction after the battle of Armageddon, Revelation 19:20, ‘And the beast was seized, and with him the false prophet who performed the signs in his presence, by which he deceived those who had received the mark of the beast and those who worshiped his image; these two were thrown alive into the lake of fire which burns with brimstone. ‘

Events in the Middle East seem to be speeding up with Israel’s activity against Iran’s forward tactics against Israel, and even the suggestion  “”The Big War is however, on its way”” (World Commentary – ‘The Australian’  20/04/18)  Several Church leaders have suggested that this will be brought about by the soon fulfilment of Daniel 11:40 ….’At the time of the end the king of the South will engage him in battle, and the king of the North will storm out against him with chariots and cavalry and a great fleet of ships. He will invade many countries and sweep through them like a flood.’     This refers to a threat by Iran to Europe which provokes Iran’s invasion and defeat, soon to be followed by Armageddon. 

There is no doubt that Iran is building forces which will grow beyond its proxies such as Hezbollah, and its foreign Shia militias from Pakistan and Afghanistan, who are paid US $800 a month and promised residence in Iran in its attempt to destroy Israel, until it controls lands even into North Africa, for these allied nations will be defeated by Europe in its coming war with Iran.

Those things are prophesied and will occur, but not for a good while yet. What these church leaders have not taken into account are other prophecies which clearly indicate that the King of the North, the Biblical ‘Beast’, of Europe will first strike a protective treaty with Israel, which he will then break by its invasion 3 1/2 years later, while instigating that war with Iran, Daniel 9:27, ‘He will confirm a covenant with many for one ‘seven’  [of years ] but in the middle of that seven he will put an end to sacrifice and offering …..’.  (Read our article “”Understanding Daniel’s 70th Week””)

Even before any of those events will occur, an amazing miracle will astound the whole world, and introduce those last seven years of ‘tribulation’ – world war, famine and pestilence, Revelation 14:6-7, ‘Then I saw another angel flying in midair, and he had the eternal gospel to proclaim to those who live on the earth—to every nation, tribe, language and people. He said in a loud voice, “Fear God and give him glory, because the hour of his judgment has come. Worship him who made the heavens, the earth, the sea and the springs of water.”  To understand more please refer to the ‘End Time’ articles on this website, and be assured that none of these events will occur until after that world -shaking miracle, designed by God to warn the entire world to repent before God’s punishment falls. But even then, most will leave it too late to escape with their lives, Matthew 24:22,

“”If those days had not been cut short, no one would survive, but for the sake of the elect those days will be shortened.’
