Economics alone cannot hold the EU together, but a dangerous enemy, like Magog, threatening them, could. If the “protector” of the EU in the White House were no longer available, then another great leader from within the EU would be needed.
The end of Daniel 9 is incredibly fascinating. The “Prince” will destroy the city and the sanctuary. That happened under Vespasian in AD70. Then this Prince will confirm a covenant with those he “just”destroyed for a week of 7 years. Then this Prince will put an end to sacrifices and desolate the Temple.
Each of the 4 empires have had serious impact on the Temple in Jerusalem.
The first destroyed the Temple
The second promoted the rebuilding of the Temple
The third caused the desolation of the Temple
The fourth firstly enhanced the Temple surrounds before tearing it down, then later allowed for the rebuilding of the Temple before desolating the Temple.
There’s a pattern here.
