Is Europe setting the stage for the coming Antichrist?
In a recent episode of “Countdown 2 Eternity,” pastors James Kaddis and Tom Hughes unfolded biblical prophecy and how Europe may just be a key player for the ushering in of the Antichrist, and ultimately, Jesus’ Second Coming.

Both Kaddis and Hughes observed that the European Union is positioning itself as a superstate with its own military, as evidenced by recent developments, including Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky’s interactions with President Donald Trump. These moves, they argued, are part of a larger strategy to place Europe at the center of global affairs.
Kaddis and Hughes raised concerns about Zelensky’s role in the conflict, suggesting that Ukraine is being manipulated by more powerful forces. They described the situation as a geopolitical puppet show, where both the U.S. and European interests are steering the course of events, with Ukraine caught in the middle of the power struggle.
Perhaps one of the hidden concerns that most people don’t focus on in regard to Europe is the rise of Islam across the continent, which has occurred largely due to the open borders policy in the nations there. Hughes and Kaddis point to this increase of Islam, as well as tensions with Gaza, as a direct threat against against Judaism and Christianity. This, they warned, could pave the way for the rise of the “beast” leader mentioned in biblical prophecy, signaling the approach of the end times.
“The problem of Gaza has everything to do with…the destruction of the Jewish state and the destruction of Jews all over the world,” Kaddis says.
While these global issues continue to heat up, Kaddis and Hughes point to Trump as a key for what happens next in Europe, and across the world. They point out that because Trump is not a fan of the globalist agenda, he ultimately is holding nations accountable for their actions, including those that may try to form a one-world government.
“He stands against what the whole world is going toward,” says Kaddis.
In light of all kinds of rapid developments, Kaddis and Hughes urged Christians to stay alert and grounded in their faith. As the geopolitical landscape evolves, it’s becoming increasingly clear that we could be on the brink of seeing prophecy fulfilled.
The stage is set, and now is the time for believers to hold fast to the hope of Christ’s imminent return.
