What kind of power do NATO and other military organizations have, according to Les?
NATO and various other military organizations possess tremendous power, specifically the power of nuclear weapons along with advanced technology and other capabilities witnessed over the last few years. This military strength marks the revived Roman Empire or present European community in the prophetic sequence.
Les explains that as the Gentile empires came on the scene, military power naturally became greater until reaching what he calls the revived Roman Empire or the present European community. In that setting, NATO and the various other military organizations have the tremendous power of nuclear weapons, plus the technology and other things witnessed over the last few years. He also notes that every one of these empires was connected to Israel and included Palestine and Jerusalem, though the European community's ten toes do not yet have that kind of relationship with Israel, with America mostly keeping the little nation going. The Antichrist will still come out of the old Roman Empire area, possibly Western Europe, and will come in peaceably and with flatteries.
