This phrase occurs in the prophesy of Daniel (Chap. 9) in relation to the coming of Messiah to Israel and the rebuilding of Jerusalem. As we survey our world today and look for signs preceding its demise in its present form, and the setting up of a new, eternal kingdom, are there any parallels with the world Daniel was foretelling, with its unique events, and the one we inhabit today? For sure! Messiah, Jesus, is the key. He would come in troubled times for Israel – conquered by Rome and, after the fleeting, but stupendous, events of his earthly ministry, death and resurrection to atone for man’s sin, would again see Jerusalem obliterated by the emperor Titus. Troublous times indeed! Then Daniel’s vision in Chap. 9 fast forwards us to the climactic events of his seventieth week – a time in the future that would see a revived ‘Roman Empire’ in place, or more specifically, an empire akin to ancient Rome in its geographical location. Guess what? We have such an ‘empire’ in place today – it’s called the European Community – and it will have a key role in end-time events. Bible prophecy (in Matt 24, Mark 13, Luke 21, 2 Tim 3 and other scriptures) make clear certain other features will also be present in the world’s make-up at that time: catastrophes of nature and living, savage behaviour, distress of nations, perplexity, ‘the sea and the waves roaring’, signs in the heavens, and ‘men’s hearts failing them for fear’ (Lk 21). An explosion of knowledge (the computer revolution) will lead to man’s heart despising the concept of one true God, but ironically at ease with, and indulging in, satanic activity and trifling with death. One other factor, and the most significant, will set the stage for Messiah’s coming again – scattered and chastened Israel back in their own land. As God promised. Troublous times again, for sure! But, for the believer in Jesus, Messiah, what glorious hope and expectation! ‘When these things begin to come to pass...look up... for your redemption draweth nigh’ (Lk.21.28).

It cited the September speech of Islamic State spokesman Mohammad al-Adnani, who brashly warned the "crusaders" (America and Europe) thus: "We will conquer your Rome, break your crosses, and enslave your women … so mobilize your forces, O crusaders … roar with thunder, threaten whom you want, plot, arm your troops, prepare yourselves, strike, kill, and destroy us. This will not avail you. You will be defeated … for our Lord … has promised our victory and your defeat." In the Islamic State’s view of the world, Israel is merely a Roman military outpost that must be taken before marching on Europe. For this reason, Israel is far from being the focus of this magazine, which is all about waging an apocalyptic war against America and Europe. In fact, one might be disappointed to discover that the latest issue of Dabiq doesn’t mention at all the Palestinians or the summer’s Gaza war, which dominated headlines in the rest of the world.

It was such an acknowledgement of the Sovereignty of Jesus Christ over Britain that undoubtedly preserved our freedom, and God answered those prayers at many times when it appeared that our military forces were about to be overcome. The Magna Carta, The Habeas Corpus Act of 1679, The Bill Rights of 1689 and the Coronation Oath gave us the right to live as free men and women and acknowledged the omniscient, omnipotent and omnipresent God, as revealed in the natural world and supremely in the Bible. The Coronation oath, sworn by British monarchs, codified those freedoms into law and gave protection to the British people from any government that would attempt to impose Godless tyranny on its own people. The Coronation Oath, established in 1688 by King William and Queen Mary, codified the promise of a sovereign to preserve peace and protect the church, to maintain laws that uphold Judeo/ Christian values and morality and abolish bad laws and dispense justice to all. At their coronation, they were asked whether they would “solemnly promise and swear to govern the People of this Kingdom of England and the Dominions thereto, according to the statutes in Parliament agreed on and the laws and customs of the same”.... Would they to their power “cause Law and Justice in Mercy to be Executed in all Your Judgements....?” And would they, to the utmost of their power, “Maintain the Laws of God, the true profession of the Gospel and the Protestant reformed religion, established by law?” and would they “Preserve unto the Bishops and clergy of this realm and the churches committed to their charge all such rights and privileges as by law do or shall appertaine unto them or any of them.?” To which they responded by saying, All this I promise to do ….The things which I have here before promised I will perform and keep so help me God.” So, here written into the very DNA of our laws is an acknowledgement that we need to be protected by God not only from external forces, but our own fallen natures.
