Cardinal Gerhard Müller addressed a Rome conference warning that Europe, by severing itself from its Christian foundations through gender ideology, globalist agendas, and the suppression of religious liberty, is on a path of self-destruction. This mirrors the biblical pattern of nations that abandon God facing inevitable decline and judgment — a trend Scripture identifies as a hallmark of the last days. Romans 1:21-28 describes a society that exchanges the truth of God for a lie, leading to moral collapse, while 2 Timothy 3:1-5 warns that the final age will be marked by people who are 'lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God.'
