No, the Roman Empire will not rise again. The European Union is not a candidate for the new Roman Empire, as some Christians say. The whole thing with there being a second Roman empire was a way of raising the hopes of early Christians into thinking that they would defeat the Romans one day, given that the Romans were the harshest persecutors of early Christians. I don't believe Revelation is actually a prophecy as much as it is a message of hope. Sure, if you include vague terms, eventually they'll be fulfilled in something. Nostradamus understood this well. So no, the Roman Empire will not rise again. The closest thing to the new Roman Empire is the Vatican. But the Vatican has little to no power in secular, international affairs. Compare that to ancient Rome, who until the advent of Christianity, was the most dominant force in the known world. So, my answer is no.

What do you mean "rise again?"
The Roman Empire morphed into the "Holy Roman Empire" and is currently one of the most successful empires to have existed.
The Holy Roman Empire claims over one billion citizens, most of whom pay taxes to Rome and receive little or nothing in return.
Those Romans are shrewd folks, it seems.

In a time when the world is on the brink of destruction an leader will rise and that leader will be the emperor of the modern Roman Imperium it will not be and still is not the animals in United States of America or those Chinese fools. That leader will be one of equality, peace and freedom for all unlike the world we all live in today

I feel you may have misunderstood something here, it is not will the Roman Empire rise again but when will the American Empire ever collapse?

they are already especially stable. the international government shape is in place. And we see how briskly international locations can fall from ability with Russia and a bunch of others as examples. And now the U.S. is close to to financial fall down. If that happens you could wager yet another great ability will upward push. From what I hear that's finding like Blair is the widespread to be the President of the ecu. we don't be responsive to how long she will final. Time frames are constantly in reference of Israel.

Who knows?
It will have to thoroughly redo itself, though, since it is no longer united under an emperor or a sovereign--which is a prerequisite for an empire, no?

no theres no way that it can be united under a ruler. plus you have to unite the roman catholic church and the orthodox church
