Daniel
8
You'll remember we said chapters 2 thru 7 were written in Chaldean, the
languages of Israel's captor. This chapter is written specifically to
the Israelites and here we switch back to Hebrew, the true language of
our people.
Keep in mind that this chapter was written three to four years prior to
chapter 6, in which Daniel was tested in the lion den. You may assume
therefore three to four years after the events discussed in this chapter
which have directly you. This has to do with the last days that you also
will be given a choice to either be delivered up as a witness for Christ
or worship a false christ (Satan).
Daniel's vision of the ram and he goat
Matthew 25:32 And before him
shall be gathered all nations: and he shall separate them one
from another, as a shepherd divideth his sheep from the goats:
In the last days the,
A ram is a male sheep, and how many time does
the scripture refer to the lost sheep of Israel?
Jeremiah 23:1 Woe be unto the pastors that destroy and scatter the sheep
of my pasture! saith the LORD.
Woe to
Pastors that don't teach truth. It does not matter what you put in front
of your name, if you mislead God's children God's going to correct you.
Jeremiah 2:8 The priests said not, Where is
the LORD? and they that handle the law knew me
not: the pastors also transgressed against me,
and the prophets prophesied by Baal, and
walked
after things that do not profit.
Good studying 2 Timothy 4
2 Therefore thus saith the LORD God of Israel against the pastors that
feed my people; Ye have scattered my flock, and driven them away, and
have not visited them: behold, I will visit upon you the evil of your
doings, saith the LORD.
3 And I will gather the remnant of my flock out of all countries whither
I have driven them, and will bring them again to their folds; and they
shall be fruitful and increase.
7th trump, This hasn't happen yet. The time
of the Millennium (Ezekiel 44)
In the last days the he goat stands
for a political system and those that followed Satan's one world order.
Daniel 8:1 In the third year of the reign of king Belshazzar a vision
appeared unto me, even unto me Daniel, after that which appeared unto me
at the first.
-
This is the vision of the
Two Beast in
Revelation 13, (The
political system and
Satan's one world
religious government)
-
This vision and the rest of the book from here
is written in Hebrew.
-
Because its purpose is to show how gentile
dominion of
Daniel 2 specially concerns and
affects Israel.
-
Last King of Babylon was King
Belshazzar
-
You'll remember in the last verses of chapter 5,
King Belshazzar was slain, and here we're in
third year of his reign.
-
This was in the third year: 426 B.C. Daniel
being 87 years old. (Ap 50)
-
Like the vision in chapter 7, this also is
complete in itself, but is necessary to
contribute its proof of the unity of the book as
a whole .
-
After two years - At the end of the Babylonian
empire, for Belshazzar reigned little more than
two years.
2 And I saw in a vision; and it came to pass, when I saw, that I was at
Shushan in the palace, which is in the province of Elam; and I saw in a
vision, and I was by the river of Ulai.
-
Shushan, the chief city of All Persia = Iran of
today = just pass the tiger river =
Head of the Persia Gulf
-
Elam meaning the hidden ones = The Lord will bring them into all nations
= Jeremiah 49
-
Ulai = Pure water = Persia = It's the head
of the Persia River, runs near the
Euphrates and Tiger River = Its Iran of today
-
He talking about Iran. Go to
the head of the great River Euphrates and look east
-
This geographical location is not Babylon.
-
Head of the Persia Gulf
-
River = a canal = only here, and in verses 3-6
-
He talking about Iran. Go to
the head of the great River Euphrates
and look east
-
Ulai = The Eulaeus canal, near Susa, now the
Karun river.
-
The palace is the same as belonged to Ahaseurus
(Esther 1:2) in Media Persia.
Esther 1:2 That in those days, when the king
Ahasuerus sat on the throne of his kingdom,
which was in Shushan the palace,
3 In the third year of his reign, he made a
feast unto all his princes and his servants; the
power of Persia and Media, the nobles and
princes of the provinces, being before him:
-
Daniel was probably there during the time of
Nebuchadnezzar's disease, which explain why
Belshazzar, Nebuchadnezzar's grandson, did not
know Daniel in chapter 5 before the queen drew
Belshazzar's attention to him.
-
I was at = I was in = Daniel may have retired
there (during the lycanthropy of Nebuchadnezzar)
when Nehemiah and Mordecai were in the court of
Astyages
-
Neh 1:1 The words of Nehemiah the son of
Hachaliah. And it came to pass in the month
Chisleu, in the twentieth year, as I was in
Shushan the palace.
-
Daniel was there employed by Astyages is clear
from verse 27
3 Then I lifted up mine eyes, and saw, and, behold, there stood before
the river a ram which had two horns: and the two horns were high; but
one was higher than the other, and the higher came up last.
-
Latter time, We assume we are
talking about
British and American, being
recorded in Hebrew, is written specifically
to
the Israelites.
-
Two horns: and the two horns were high; but one
was higher than the other, and the higher came
up last.
-
A ram is a male sheep, and how many time does
the scripture refer to the lost sheep of Israel?
-
Two horns =
A horn is a ruler, so we see we are talking
about a ruler of England and a ruler of the USA.
-
In the last days the he goat stands
for a political system, Satan's one world order.
-
History =
Two horns, which represented the kings of the
Persians and Medes.
-
Horns means power, nations
-
Daniel 8:20 The ram which thou sawest having two
horns are the kings of Media and Persia.
-
Daniel 8:21 And the rough goat is the
king of Grecia: and the great horn that
is between his eyes is the first king.
-
Grecia = Greece
-
He goat = a
leaper of the goats. The acknowledged symbol of
Greece, as the ram was of Persia
4 I saw the ram pushing westward, and northward, and southward; so that
no beasts might stand before him, neither was there any that could
deliver out of his hand; but he did according to his will, and became
great.
-
Last days = a ruler of England
and a ruler of the USA
-
Ram = the Christian Nations,
the
tribes of Israel
-
History =
Daniel is seeing the fall of Babylon
-
Ram = Persia =
Pushing = butting: always hostile
-
Became great = acted proudly =
Westward = to the west
5 And as I was considering, behold, an he goat came from the west on the
face of the whole earth, and touched not the ground: and the goat had a
notable horn between his eyes.
-
Last Days =
The he goat stands
for a political system, Satan's one world order (Rev
13:1 -2)
-
The goat had a
notable horn between his eyes.
-
Note that it travels the whole earth and comes
from the west.
-
From the west is not the place of origin, but the
direction from it
-
On = over
-
Notable = conspicuous
-
History =
The great horn was Alexander the great
-
He-goat of the goats (2 Chronicles 29:21). In
Dan 8:5,8 it is used as a symbol of the
Macedonian empire
-
He goat symbol of Greece was Alexander
-
As the ram was of Persia, because the first
colony was direction by an oracle to take a goat
for a guide and build a city, which they did,
and called it Egeae from Aix = a goat.
-
Figures of a goat are found today on ancient
Macedonian monuments.
6 And he came to the ram that had two horns, which I had there seen
standing before the river, and ran unto him in the fury of his power.
-
Last Days =
We see here a conflict between a nation
and two Christian nations.
-
History =
Ran unto him = Symbolizing the rapidity of
Alexander's conquests, which in the short space
of thirteen years, subdued the world.
7 And I saw him come close unto the ram, and he was moved with choler
against him, and smote the ram, and brake his two horns: and there was
no power in the ram to stand before him, but he cast him down to the
ground, and stamped upon him: and there was none that could deliver the
ram out of his hand.
-
Last Days =
You see the very first dreams, you see the
Christian Nations coming down.
-
The goat = Satan's one world order = here did not kill, but conquered two
nations = USA and Great Britain
-
Goat = Satan's one world order = one of the
nation take down = USA and Great Britain =
they become weak
-
Ram = Christian
Nations = British and American "rays" may be smoother,
but is weak
-
This will happen just before the ten rulers
setup in Jerusalem
-
None that could meaning no deliverer for.
-
Hand means power, Put by of cause, for the power
put forth by it.
-
History =
The first king represents, Alexander the Great
-
Was moved with choler, means moved himself or
strove violently with.
-
Choler means bile, for anger or wrath, which was
supposed to be due to excess of bile.
-
Hands = power = for the power put forth by it
8 Therefore the he goat waxed very great: and when he was strong, the
great horn was broken; and for it came up four notable ones toward the
four winds of heaven.
-
Four winds brings the end = Revelation 7 = the 5th trump
-
Last Days = He goat in the end times = Satan's one world
order
-
The.. he goat stands for a political
system
-
The rulers was broken in pieces, instead of it
afterward
-
Four notable one = four conspicuous "ones"
-
It was broken, and four took it's place in
opposition to the four winds in heaven.
-
Great horn broken.
Four horns are Kingdoms or nations. The four
conspicuous ones
-
The
7th kingdom will be setup in Jerusalem =
Daniel 7
= Four World Powers
-
Daniel 7:17 These great beasts, which are four, are four kings, which
shall arise
out of the earth.
-
These beasts in Revelation are kingdoms, kings,
leaders
-
Great four beast which are four kingdoms or four
world powers out of the
earth
-
Daniel 7:24 And the ten horns out of this kingdom are ten kings that
shall arise:
and another shall rise after them; and
he shall be diverse from the
first, and he shall subdue three kings.
-
Ten horns are ten
kings Revelation 13
-
His kingdom = another shall rise after them = 8th king Satan
-
This vision is still in Chaldee (the Gentile
language), because it is the continuation of
Daniel 2:44, and shows what will take place in "the last days of those kings" before the stone
strikes the image.
-
It brings us up to the end of Gentile dominion
over Israel.
-
Four winds means all blowing at the same time and
producing the one result described in verses:
Dan 7:3-8.
-
These four winds that come from all directions,
north, south, east and west, to concentrate on a
specific point are not common winds.
-
We see then that the events we are about to
study in this chapter of Daniel will not occur
until God's servants are sealed.
-
You can rest assured that we're going to see a
tremendous uprising in activity, as far as your
teachings are concerning in a very short time.
-
The great sea, The Mediterranean Sea, or the sea
denoting the people of the earth, as interpreted
for us in verse 17.
-
Daniel 3:1 Nebuchadnezzar
the king made an image of gold, whose height was
threescore cubits, and the breadth thereof six
cubits: he set it up in the plain of Dura, in
the province of Babylon.
-
2 Then Nebuchadnezzar the
king sent to gather together the princes, the
governors, and the captains, the judges, the
treasurers, the counsellers, the sheriffs, and all the rulers of the provinces, to come to the
dedication of the image which Nebuchadnezzar the
king had set up.
-
3 Then the princes, the governors, and captains,
the judges, the treasurers, the counsellers, the sheriffs, and all the
rulers of the provinces, were gathered together unto the dedication
of
the image that Nebuchadnezzar the king had set up; and they stood before
the image that Nebuchadnezzar had set up.
-
Revelation 9, we learn that the four winds of
heaven would not come to pass until the servants
of God, the elect, were sealed in their
foreheads.
-
Revelation 9:4 And it was
commanded them that they should not hurt the
grass of the earth, neither any green thing,
neither any tree; but only those men which
have not the seal of God in their
foreheads.
-
History =
Waxed very great, referring to the great extent
of Alexander's conquests, as "ran" verse 6
refers to the rapidity of them.
-
Great = He was Exceedingly proud (verse 4)
9 And out of one of them came forth a little horn, which waxed exceeding
great, toward the south, and toward the east, and toward the pleasant
land.
-
Little horn = 8th king = Satan saying he is God = 7th
kingdom gives the kingdom over to 8th king Satan
-
The pleasant land always refers to Jerusalem.
-
And what did Christ say?
When you see abomination of desolation standing
where it (he) ought not.. in the Holy Place.. which
is in Jerusalem.
-
South is Egypt
-
East is Babylonia and Persia
-
Pleasant land = the glory of gems, the land of
Israel. Only in Ezekiel 20 and Daniel here use
this term of the Holy Land.
-
So you know this verse signifies the end times.
-
The whole last chapter was about these horns,
and we know that these four are the beast (The
political system) that rises up out of the
sea (people) in Revelation 13.
-
We know the little horn is the false christ
(Satan).
10 And it waxed great, even to the host of heaven; and
it cast down
some of the host and of the stars to the ground, and
stamped upon them.
-
Even to = as far as
-
Revelation 12:4 And his tail drew the third part
of the stars of heaven, and did cast them to the
earth: and the dragon stood before the woman
which was ready to be delivered, for to devour
her child as soon as it was born.
-
Of the host of the stars,
Stars in Heaven are the sons of God (Job 38:7) (Revelation
12:4)
-
For emphasis = the starry host
-
The people symbolized by them.
-
Satan is here on earth
-
Stamped upon them means trampled people
under foot. Means change your beliefs
-
Note, he cast
them to earth. Those angels and souls who chose
to follow Satan.
-
Let's take this
verse in the present-day sense for a moment. The man child
is Jesus Christ,
Who is on the
right hand of
God? The man child
to Identity Message, born of the woman Israel.
-
Wouldn't Satan
like to devour that particular ''child''.
-
Who is the dragon?
-
Revelation 12:9 And the great dragon was cast
out, that old serpent, called the Devil, and
Satan, which deceiveth the whole world: he was
cast out into the earth, and his angels were
cast out with him.
-
Stamped upon them, (people are symbolized to
them) meaning trampled the people under foot.
-
Believe it or not, you are part of that host
when you witness against this evil one. Satan's
standing in Jerusalem saying he is God.
11 Yea, he magnified himself even to the prince of the host, and by him
the daily sacrifice was taken away, and the place of his sanctuary was
cast down.
-
To = against
-
The Prince of the Host (God Himself, the Creator
and Ruler of the starry host)
-
By Him..was taken: or, it took away from Him:
God
-
Daily sacrifice the continual (burnt offering)
the morning and evening sacrifice.
-
Its when
Jesus was sacrifice for our sins.
-
Satan and his seed, sons of Cain was the cause of Christ's
crucifixion.
-
Hebrews 10:8 Above when he said, Sacrifice and
offering and burnt offerings and offering for
sin thou wouldest not, neither hadst pleasure
therein; which are offered by the law;
9 Then said he, Lo, I come to do thy will, O
God. He taketh away the first, that he may
establish the second.
10 By the which will we are sanctified through
the offering of the body of Jesus Christ
once for all.
11 And every priest standeth daily ministering
and offering often times the same sacrifices,
which can never take away sins:
12 But this man, after he had offered one
sacrifice for sins for ever, sat down on the
right hand of God;
13 From henceforth expecting till his enemies be
made his footstool.
-
The Father therefore sacrificed His only
begotten Son, so there would be no further need
for the daily sacrifice.
-
Here we see Satan trying to take away our daily
sacrifice.
-
How?
-
Satan comes in the middle of the week, saying he
is God.
-
Satan wants you to worship him
-
2 Corinthians 11:13-14
For such are false apostles, deceitful workers,
transforming themselves into the apostles of Christ. And no marvel; for Satan
himself is transformed into an angel of light.
12 And an host was given him against the daily
sacrifice by reason of transgression, and it cast down the truth to the
ground; and it practiced, and prospered.
-
An host here, the word is used of a military
host or group of people
-
In opposition to the "host" of Numbers 4:23
-
Satan's children can not stand truth
-
Little horn (Future) Satan
-
Satan was defiling God's truth, and the
deception was successful, thus making necessary
the death of Jesus Christ, which opened the way
for forgiveness and salvation, not only to
Israel but to the Gentiles as well.
-
Today, Satan's deception is here (he is the
prince of this world) now.
-
Even some of churches will rush to worship him
when he appears, saying he is Christ.
-
Satan will be giving them anything, if
they worship him.
-
Hoping to be rapture away.
-
Revelation 18:23 And the light of a candle shall
shine no more at all in thee; and the voice of
the bridegroom and of the bride shall be heard
no more at all in thee: for thy merchants were
the great men of the earth; for by thy sorceries
were all nations deceived.
-
It cast down the truth, the truth of God as
revealed in the law and the prophets.
-
2 Thessalonians 2:3
Let no man deceive you by any means: for that day
shall not come, except there come a falling away
first, and that man of sin be revealed, the son of
perdition;
-
4 Who opposeth and exalteth
himself above all that is called God, or that is
worshipped; so that he as God sitteth in the temple
of God, shewing himself that he is God.
-
2 Thessalonians 2:9
Even him, whose
coming is
after the working of Satan with all power and signs
and lying wonders,
-
God's elect that
stand for Christ in the last days, they
are against this political power that shall
raise up and bring in one Worldism.
-
Practiced means did it with effect.
13 Then I heard one saint speaking, and another saint said unto that
certain saint which spake, How long shall be the vision concerning the
daily sacrifice, and the transgression of desolation, to give both the
sanctuary and the host to be trodden under foot?
-
"The transgression of desolation, to give both
the sanctuary and the host to be trodden under
foot" that sums up the entire problem both then
and now.
-
Saint = holy (one)
-
An angelic attendant
14 And he said unto me, Unto two thousand and three hundred days; then
shall the sanctuary be cleansed.
-
We know for a fact that the cleansing of the
sanctuary shall be when Christ returns, and
we are given a time here of two thousand and
three hundred days.
-
Many of you know the last time the sanctuary was
cleansed was in Joshua 23:9-16 when God said, I
have removed all these people from among you.
-
I have cleansed this sanctuary, and never again
until the end will I do it.
-
Joshua 23:9 For the Lord hath driven out from
before you great nations and strong: but as for
you, no man hath been able to stand before you
unto this day.
10 One man of you shall chase a thousand: for
the Lord your God, he it is that fighteth for
you, as he hath promised you.
11 Take good heed therefore unto yourselves,
that ye love the Lord your God.
12 Else if ye do in any wise go back, and cleave
unto the remnant of these nations, even these
that remain among you, and shall make marriages
with them, and go in unto them, and they to you:
13 Know for a certainty that the Lord
your God will no more drive out any of these
nations from before you; but they shall
be snares and traps unto you, and scourges in
your sides, and thorns in your eyes, until ye
perish from off this good land which the
Lord your God hath given you.
14 And, behold, this day I am going the way of
all the earth: and ye know in all your hearts
and in all your souls, that not one thing hath
failed of all the good things which the Lord
your God spake concerning you; all are come to
pass unto you, and not one thing hath failed
thereof.
15 Therefore it shall come to pass, that as all
good things are come upon you, which the Lord
your God promised you; so shall the Lord bring
upon you all evil things, until he have
destroyed you from off this good land which the
Lord your God hath given you.
16 When ye have transgressed the covenant of the
Lord your God, which he commanded you, and have
gone and served other gods, and bowed yourselves
to them; then shall the anger of the Lord be
kindled against you, and ye shall perish quickly
from off the good land which he hath given unto
you.
-
Last time the sanctuary will be cleansed at the
7th vial, Christ returns
-
Joshua 23:13 Know for a certainty that the
Lord your God will no more drive out any of
these nations from before you; but they
shall be snares and traps unto you, and scourges
in your sides, and thorns in your eyes, until ye
perish from off this good land which the
Lord your God hath given you.
-
What does this mean?
-
The Gentile will control the Rock - The Dome of
the Rock until He returns
-
Bible study hour: The fig tree setup = The tribe
of Judah became a nation, Israel - May 14, 1948 = 6th kingdom
-
Christ is our Rock
-
Deut 32:4 He is the Rock, his work is perfect: for all his ways
are judgment: a God of truth and without iniquity, just and
right is he.
- God is our Rock = His work is perfect, His word is
unchangeable
- God's Rock used five times in this chapter = five meaning =
Grace
-
Deut 32:31 For their rock is not as our Rock, even our enemies
themselves being judges.
- Ezekiel 28 = Tyrus means rock
- Their rocks is Tyrus, Satan, Devil
- Ezekiel 28:18 Thou hast defiled thy sanctuaries by the
multitude of thine iniquities, by the iniquity of thy traffick;
therefore will I bring forth a fire from the midst of thee, it
shall devour thee, and I will bring thee to ashes upon the earth
in the sight of all them that behold thee.
19 All they that know thee among the people shall be astonished
at thee: thou shalt be a terror, and never shalt thou be any
more.
- Our Rock is God
- 1
Corinthians 10:4 And did all drink
the same spiritual drink: for they drank of that spiritual Rock
that followed them: and that Rock was Christ.
15 And it came to pass, when I, even I Daniel, had seen the vision, and
sought for the meaning, then, behold, there stood before me as the
appearance of a man.
-
Man here is a might man, Geber here is
Gabriel.
-
Daniel himself is trying to understand this.
16 And I heard a man's voice between the banks of Ulai, which called,
and said, Gabriel, make this man to understand the vision.
-
Gabriel means Man of God
-
Gabriel, The first of two angels who are named
in scripture.
-
Daniel 9:21 Yea, whiles I was speaking in
prayer, even the man Gabriel, whom I had seen in
the vision at the beginning, being caused to fly
swiftly, touched me about the time of the
evening oblation.
-
The second angel is Michael
-
Daniel 10:13 But the prince of the kingdom of
Persia withstood me one and twenty days: but,
lo, Michael, one of the chief princes, came to
help me; and I remained there with the kings of
Persia.
-
Daniel 10:21 But I will shew thee that which is
noted in the scripture of truth: and there is
none that holdeth with me in these things, but
Michael your prince.
17 So he came near where I stood: and when he came, I was afraid, and
fell upon my face: but he said unto me, Understand, O son of man: for
at the time of the end shall be the vision.
-
This vision did not concern Greece or Persia,
but the very last days.
-
When that prancing goat is travelling about the
world.
-
Only Jesus Christ, Daniel and Ezekiel were
called "son of man" by an angel.
-
Psalms 8:4 4 What is man, that thou art mindful
of him? and the son of man, that thou visitest
him?
5 For thou hast made him a little lower than the
angels, and hast crowned him with glory and
honour.
-
"The time of the end" refers to the
very elect, the
very elect will be deliver up.
-
Mark 13:9 But take heed to
yourselves: for they shall deliver you up to
councils; and in the synagogues ye shall be
beaten: and ye shall be brought before rulers
and kings for my sake, for a testimony against
them.
-
"This gives the time to which this vision"
refers to this gospel of
the kingdom shall be preached in all the world.
-
Matthew 24:14 And this
gospel of the kingdom shall be preached in all
the world for a witness unto all nations; and
then shall the end come.
-
Mark 13:11 But when they
shall lead you, and deliver you up, take no
thought beforehand what ye shall speak, neither
do ye premeditate: but whatsoever shall be given
you in that hour, that speak ye: for it is not
ye that speak, but the Holy Spirit.
-
Signs of the end: Matthew 24, Mark 13 and Luke
21.
18 Now as he was speaking with me, I was in a deep sleep on my face
toward the ground: but he touched me, and set me upright.
19 And he said, Behold, I will make thee know what shall be in
the last end of the indignation: for at the time
appointed the end shall be.
-
The last days, another indication of the time of
the fulfillment of the vision at the time
appointed.
-
Indignation is "God's wrath poured out", at the
seventh vial
-
Revelation 16:17 And the seventh angel poured out his
vial into the air; and there came a great voice
out of the temple of heaven, from the throne, saying, It is
done.
-
7th vial poured out. This cup of wrath is poured out
18 And there were voices, and thunders, and
lightnings; and there was a great earthquake, such as was not
since men were upon the earth, so mighty an earthquake, and so
great.
19 And the great city was divided into
three parts, and the cities of the nations fell: and great
Babylon came in remembrance before God, to give unto her the cup
of the wine of the fierceness of his wrath.
20 The ram which thou sawest having two horns are the kings of Media and
Persia.
-
The Ram are the two horns. They are the kings of
Media and Persia, Iran of today
-
He saying, the ram having two horns are the
kings of Media and Persia.
-
Media in Hebrew means the Middle Land, Persia
-
When Persia, which means pure and splendid
land, Iran of today
-
Here we have the beginning of the
interpretation; which commences with past
history with which the prophecy (which belongs
to the last days) is linked on.
-
This is to connect the anticipatory and partial
or foreshadowing, fulfillment, which shows how
the "little horn" Satan will act, in a similar
way as an individual, and not as a series of
kings.
21 And the rough goat is the king of Grecia: and the great horn that is
between his eyes is the first king.
-
The great horn Grecia, is from Greece.
The He-goat
-
He saying, the rough is the king of Grecia,
the great horn is between his eyes is the first
king.
-
The first king represents, Alexander the Great
22 Now that being broken, whereas four stood up for it, four kingdoms
shall stand up out of the nation, but not in his power.
-
The great horn broken in the end times. 6th
vial 4 demons loose (Revelation 9)
-
Four horns are the Four Kingdoms
-
Four kingdoms, these are said to have been:
-
1. Ptolemy's (Egypt, Palestine and some parts of
Asia Minor)
-
2. Cassander's ( Macedonia and Greece)
-
3. Lysimachus's (Bithynia, Thrace, Mysia, Etc..)
-
Bithynia was an ancient region, kingdom and
Roman province in the northwest of Asia Minor,
adjoining the Propontis, the Thracian Bosporus
and the Euxine Sea
-
4. Seleucus's ( Syria, Armenia, and territory
east of the Euphrates).
-
But the continuity of Alexander's dominion
ceased with him, and will not be seen again till
"the little horn" arises, (Satan).
-
Nation "his nation" not in his power, not with
Alexander's vigour of action and endurance.
-
6th vial the 4 demons loose (Revelation 9)
-
Daniel 8:3 Then I lifted up mine eyes, and saw,
and, behold, there stood before the river a ram
which had two horns: and the two horns were
high; but one was higher than the other, and the
higher came up last.
-
Daniel 11:4 And when he shall stand up, his
kingdom shall be broken, and shall be divided
toward the four winds of heaven; and not to his
posterity, nor according to his dominion which
he ruled: for his kingdom shall be plucked up,
even for others beside those.
5 And the king of the south shall be strong, and
one of his princes; and he shall be strong above
him, and have dominion; his dominion shall be a
great dominion.
6 And in the end of years they shall join
themselves together; for the king's daughter of
the south shall come to the king of the north to
make an agreement: but she shall not retain the
power of the arm; neither shall he stand, nor
his arm: but she shall be given up, and they
that brought her, and he that begat her, and he
that strengthened her in these times.
23 And in the latter time of their kingdom, when the
transgressors are come to the full, a king of fierce countenance, and
understanding dark sentences, shall stand up.
-
Latter time is the generation of the fig tree, May 1948
-
Little horn is Satan (Future)
-
A king of fierce countenance. This is Satan
shall stand in Jerusalem saying, he is
God.(Revelation 13, Satan is the second beast).
-
2 Thessalonians 2:3-4 Let
no man deceive you by any means: for that day
shall not come, except there come a falling away
first, and that man of sin be revealed, the son
of perdition;
Who opposeth and exalteth himself above all
that is called God, or that is worshipped; so
that he as God sitteth in the temple of God,
shewing himself that he is God.
-
Understanding dark sentences, skilled in
dissimulation, To disguise, To conceal one's
true feelings or intentions. Appearance that
misrepresents the true character of something.
-
The latter time of their kingdom, this is the
last days.
-
Transgressors = rebellions
-
Are come to the full: or, have filled up their
measure.
-
Therefore not fulfill yet.
-
This is a blow to all who are vainly trying to
make the world better, and to "realize the
kingdom of God on earth: now.
-
Joel 2:2 A day of darkness and of gloominess, a
day of clouds and of thick darkness, as the
morning spread upon the mountains: a great
people and a strong; there hath not been
ever the like, neither shall be
any more after it, even to the years of many
generations.
3 A fire devoureth before them; and behind them
a flame burneth: the land is as the garden of
Eden before them, and behind them a desolate
wilderness; yea, and nothing shall escape them.
4 The appearance of them is as the appearance of
horses; and as horsemen, so shall they run.
5 Like the noise of chariots on the tops of
mountains shall they leap, like the noise of a
flame of fire that devoureth the stubble, as a
strong people set in battle array.
-
Revelation 9:7 And the
shapes of the locusts were like unto
horses prepared unto battle;
and on their heads were as it were
crowns like gold, and their
faces were as the faces of men.
24 And his power shall be mighty, but not by his own power: and
he shall destroy wonderfully, and shall prosper, and practice,
and shall destroy the mighty and the holy people.
-
His power is not his own, but allowed by the
Father.
-
It's God's plan to allow Satan power to deceive
for a time.
-
He who He lets, will be done.
-
2 Thessalonians 2:3-4 Let
no man deceive you by any means: for that day
shall not come, except there come a falling away
first, and that man of sin be revealed, the son
of perdition;
Who opposeth and exalteth himself above all
that is called God, or that is worshipped; so
that he as God sitteth in the temple of God,
shewing himself that he is God.
-
Just as Satan is counterfeiting the
real Christ, these men (locusts) are counterfeiting
-
Satan shall attempt to destroy us spiritually; for if you accept
him, you will go through God's wrath
-
Out of these four kingdom shall come the false christ. The 7th
kingdom
-
Thus you see the urgency of the day and of the season.
-
Be alert. Be aware. These are the last days.
-
It's a false godhead and he shall destroy wonderfully,
and shall prosper. Meaning he's will pay all your bills
IF you worship him. He shall destroy the mighty and the
holy people.
-
Meaning, destroy it in what way? With the great
apostasy where people are deceived. Where that
same political system comes to power for that 5
month period related to Revelation 9.
-
Joel 2:25 And I will restore to you the years
that the locust hath eaten, the cankerworm, and the caterpillar, and
the palmerworm,
my great army which I sent among you.
-
Revelation 13:7 And it was given unto him to make war with the
saints, and to overcome them: and power was given him over all
kindred's, and tongues, and nations.
8 And all that dwell upon the earth shall worship him, whose names
are not written in the book of life of the Lamb
slain from the foundation of the world.
-
Revelation 9:4 And it was commanded them that they should not hurt
the grass of the earth, neither any green thing, neither any tree;
but only those men which have not the seal of God
in their foreheads.
-
The holy people = People of the Holy Ones. The are "the Holy ones of
the Most High''
-
Daniel 7:17 These great beasts, which are four, are four kings,
which shall arise out of the earth.
18 But the saints of the most High shall take the kingdom, and
possess the kingdom for ever, even for ever and ever.
19 Then I would know the truth of the fourth beast, which was
diverse from all the others, exceeding dreadful, whose teeth were of
iron, and his nails of brass; which devoured, brake in pieces, and
stamped the residue with his feet;
20 And of the ten horns that were in his head, and of the other
which came up, and before whom three fell; even of that horn that
had eyes, and a mouth that spake very great things, whose look was
more stout than his fellows.
21 I beheld, and the same horn made war with the saints, and
prevailed against them;
22 Until the Ancient of days came, and judgment was given to the
saints of the most High; and the time came that the saints possessed
the kingdom.
23 Thus he said, The fourth beast shall be the fourth kingdom upon
earth, which shall be diverse from all kingdoms, and shall devour
the whole earth, and shall tread it down, and break it in pieces.
24 And the ten horns out of this kingdom are ten kings that shall
arise: and another shall rise after them; and he shall be diverse
from the first, and he shall subdue three kings.
25 And he shall speak great words against the most High, and shall
wear out the saints of the most High, and think to change times and
laws: and they shall be given into his hand until a time and times
and the dividing of time.
25 And through his policy also he shall cause craft to prosper in his
hand; and he shall magnify himself in his heart, and by peace
shall destroy many: he shall also stand up against the Prince
of princes; but he shall be broken without hand.
-
He (Satan) shall magnify himself even above
Christ.. The Prince of Prince.. the Messiah
-
Satan will catch many off guard, those that have
not studied the word of God. Christians who bask
in the security of his peace, his salvation his
promise.
-
Craft means deceit, by peace, by their
prosperity or careless security.
-
He can cause anything you know he wants to pay
off all of your bills IF you worship him. You
want to get all of your bills paid. And he shall
magnify himself in his heart and by peace shall
destroy many and he shall magnify himself in his
heart, and by peace shall destroy many:
-
Some might ask, Why peace? I always heard it was
going to be war. He comes in peacefully claiming
to be Jesus. By the miracles he performs many
people that are biblically illiterate are going
to be deceived by it. That's why the
whore was the waters of the people of the world.
He shall also stand up against the Prince of
princes; but he shall be broken without hand.
Why? Christ is going to do it.
-
How does Satan come in?
-
By peace by their prosperity, or careless
security.
-
1
Thessalonians 5:3 For when they shall
say, Peace and safety; then sudden
destruction cometh upon them, as travail upon a
woman with child; and they shall not escape.
-
2 Thessalonians 2:3-4 Let
no man deceive you by any means: for that day
shall not come, except there come a falling away
first, and that man of sin be revealed, the son
of perdition;
Who opposeth and exalteth himself above all
that is called God, or that is worshipped; so
that he as God sitteth in the temple of God,
shewing himself that he is God.
-
Just as Satan is counterfeiting the
real Christ, these men (locusts) are counterfeiting
-
2 Thessalonians 2:8
And then shall that Wicked be revealed (Satan),
whom the Lord shall consume with the spirit of
his mouth, and shall destroy with the brightness
of his coming:
-
Revelation 11, When Satan kills the two
witnesses, after 3 1/2 days, then Christ shall
return at the 7th trump and gather His Elect and
the 7th vial will be poured out, and take
vengeance upon this evil one (Satan) and his
people.
-
Mark 13:26 And then shall
they see the Son of man coming in the clouds
with great power and glory.
-
7th trump - After Satan
tribulation, then the sign of the Son of man in
heaven:
27 And then shall he send
his angels, and shall gather together
his elect from the four winds, from the
uttermost part of the earth to
the uttermost
part of heaven.
He shall be broken without hand.
No man shall break him, but God shall break him.
Revelation 16:17 And the seventh angel poured out his
vial into the air; and there came a great voice
out of the temple of heaven, from the throne, saying, It is
done.
7th vial poured out
This cup of wrath is poured out
18 And there were voices,
and thunders, and lightnings; and there was a
great earthquake, such as was not since men were
upon the earth, so mighty an earthquake, and so
great.
19 And the great city was
divided into three parts, and the cities of the
nations fell: and great Babylon came in
remembrance before God, to give unto her the cup
of the wine of the fierceness of his wrath.
26 And the vision of the evening and the morning which was told is true:
wherefore shut thou up the vision; for it shall be for many days.
-
Time "many days" future
-
This will happen in the last days.
-
Evening and morning back up to verse 2-3
-
Daniel 8:11 Yea, he magnified himself even to
the prince of the host, and by him
the daily sacrifice was taken
away, and the place of his sanctuary was cast
down.
-
12 And an host was given him against the daily sacrifice by reason of
transgression, and it cast down the truth to the ground; and it
practised, and prospered.
27 And I Daniel fainted, and was sick certain days; afterward I rose up,
and did the king's business; and I was astonished at the vision, but
none understood it.
-
None understood it, because God told him, the
last generation will understand the dream, God's
elect.
-
This happens in the last days, Signs of the end,
Matthew 24, Mark 13 and Luke 21.
-
Revelation 13,
Political System,
one Worldism, the 7th kingdom will be setup in
Jerusalem
-
Revelation 17, the 8th king, Satan will take
over the 7th kingdom
