Sermonette
by Ian Munro
And They Voted No
given in Wales UK 4 June 2005
This sermonette comments on the recent vote against the EU constitution in France and Holland. It quotes from some notes Mr Armstrong wrote in 1944 that explains how the current EU direction could well have come originally from German plans on losing World War II. But the system destined to arise within Europe has its roots much further back - back to the Holy Roman Empire. Could this current "no" vote be the critical issue to drive Europe toward this prophesied fulfillment? (2.8 Mb)
