The African Union, a union of all the nations on the African continent, meeting in Ethiopia has elected Libyan leader Muammar Gaddafi as the next leader of the African Union and to what many member states thought was an obvious choice, there are some delegates that are very uneasy about this election. Col. Gaddafi was elected by the heads of state in a closed-door session for a one year period with the election coming after the African Union summit debated a Libyan backed proposal to set up a single government, the United States of Africa.
Gaddafi, who wants a single African military force and a single currency for the African Union, arrived at the summit with the title, "king of kings" - a title bestowed on the Libyan leader by more than 200 African kings and traditional rulers of Africa.
Jimmy's Prophetic Prospective on the News
Libyan leader Muammar Gaddafi is not the king of kings but his nation will play a key role in the end time scenario that can be found in Bible prophecy.
One of the most controversial world leaders is Col. Muammar Gaddafi the long time leader of Libya. Gaddafi has, in the past, aligned himself with many radical Islamic leaders but then he made inroads with the western nations as he gave up his ambitions for a nuclear weapon of mass destruction in Libya.
With the election of the 53 nations African Union to make Col. Gaddafi their new president, once again the spotlight is on this controversial personality. Arriving at the African Union summit, Gaddafi claimed to be the king of kings. First, let me remind you that Col. Gaddafi's nation, Libya, is mentioned in the Bible as one of the nations that will align themselves against Israel in the last days (Ezekiel 38:5). Libya or "Phut" in Biblical terms can be found in numerous other locations in the Biblical scenario for the last days. But no place in the Bible is the leader of Libya referred to as the "king of kings" - that designation reserved for Jesus Christ at His return to Earth (Revelation 19:16, 1:5, and 17:14).
Col. Gaddafi is not the king of kings - Jesus Christ is the King of Kings. Bible prophecy will be fullfilled.
