Daniel 2:27-28 KJVS
“Daniel answered in the presence of the king, and said, The secret which the king hath demanded cannot the wise men, the astrologers, the magicians, the soothsayers, shew unto the king; [28] But there is a God in heaven that revealeth secrets, and maketh known to the king Nebuchadnezzar what shall be in the latter days. Thy dream, and the visions of thy head upon thy bed, are these;”
Only God can make known the events that will transpire in the latter days, and our Heavenly Father through Daniel made known the interpretation of Nebuchadnezzar’s dream.
Daniel 2:29-30 KJVS
“As for thee, O king, thy thoughts came into thy mind upon thy bed, what should come to pass hereafter: and he that revealeth secrets maketh known to thee what shall come to pass. [30] But as for me, this secret is not revealed to me for any wisdom that I have more than any living, but for their sakes that shall make known the interpretation to the king, and that thou mightest know the thoughts of thy heart.”
God reveals wisdom not just for our own benefit, but wisdom is revealed for us to share so it may benefit others.
Daniel 2:31 KJVS
“Thou, O king, sawest, and behold a great image. This great image, whose brightness was excellent, stood before thee; and the form thereof was terrible.”
This Image of Nebuchadnezzar’s dream will ultimately come to pass in the latter days during the Five Month Long Hour of Temptation.
Although there is a historical type to this image, this study will focus on this Images prophetical actuality.
Daniel 2:32-33 KJVS
“This image’s head was of fine gold, his breast and his arms of silver, his belly and his thighs of brass, [33] His legs of iron, his feet part of iron and part of clay.”
We have in this Image, a head of gold, breast and arms of silver, belly and thighs of brass, legs of iron, and feet part of iron and part clay.
Four parts of this image, four being the number for earth.
Keeping this Image in mind let’s go to another chapter in the book of Daniel and see another dream and vision that lines up to this Image.
Daniel 7:1-2 KJVS
“In the first year of Belshazzar king of Babylon Daniel had a dream and visions of his head upon his bed: then he wrote the dream, and told the sum of the matters. [2] Daniel spake and said, I saw in my vision by night, and, behold, the four winds of the heaven strove upon the great sea.”
In this chapter, Daniel had a dream, and he saw four winds strove upon the great sea which are people. The four winds always indicate the Five Month Long Hour of Temptation.
Daniel 7:3 KJVS
“And four great beasts came up from the sea, diverse one from another.”
Four great beasts diverse from another. As we have gold, silver, brass and iron in the image of Daniel Chapter 2, we see four great beasts in this chapter, rise up from among the people (at the same time) in the beginning of the Five Month Long Hour of Temptation (At the Woe of the Fifth Trumpet).
Daniel 7:4 KJVS
“The first was like a lion, and had eagle’s wings: I beheld till the wings thereof were plucked, and it was lifted up from the earth, and made stand upon the feet as a man, and a man’s heart was given to it.”
I believe the head of gold on the Image in Daniel Chapter 2 will represent the Lion. This Lion will consist of the three Christian nations, and they are as follows: the United States ( Manasseh) , Great Britain, and its commonwealth (Ephraim) Germany, possibly along with the E.U (Judah).
These three Christian nations will represent the head of gold during the first half (2 and a half months) of the Five Month Long Hour of Temptation, which is the time span of the Woe of the Fifth Trumpet.
During this first half of the Five Month period, they) will have their eternal lives protected (symbolic of the eagle’s wings), up until the middle of the Five Month period.
It will be in the middle of the Five Month Long Hour of Temptation after the Deadly Head Wound transpires and is healed by the appearance of the Antichrist (little horn), the three Christian nations (Lion) will be lifted up from the earth, plucked from their Christian roots, and given over to Satan, believing he is the true Christ return. But he is a fake!
This is the falling away which is the great Apostacy spoken about in 2nd Thessalonians Chapter 2.
2 Thessalonians 2:1-4 KJVS
“Now we beseech you, brethren, by the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, and by our gathering together unto him, [2] That ye be not soon shaken in mind, or be troubled, neither by spirit, nor by word, nor by letter as from us, as that the day of Christ is at hand. [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.”
Sitting in the temple which is made up of the third who cease being Christians, Satan who appears as the false Christ at the Woe of the Sixth Trumpet in the middle of the Five Month Long Hour of Temptation, will become the head of gold. He will do this by becoming the head of the defiled body of the Third who were Christians.
Moving on in Daniel Chapter 7, as we continue to see a parallel to the Image of Daniel Chapter 2.
Daniel 7:5 KJVS
“And behold another beast, a second, like to a bear, and it raised up itself on one side, and it had three ribs in the mouth of it between the teeth of it: and they said thus unto it, Arise, devour much flesh.”
The Bear which represents the arms and breast of silver on the Image of Nebuchadnezzar’s dream, will consist of Russia and all non-Christian nations (the Ezekiel 38 confederacy).
In the middle of the Five Month Long Hour of Temptation, geopolitically speaking, they will have the three ribs (three Christian nations) in the mouth between the teeth of it, indicating the Christian nations will be one with the non-Christian nations in worshipping Satan as little horn.
Daniel 7:6 KJVS
“After this I beheld, and lo another, like a leopard, which had upon the back of it four wings of a fowl; the beast had also four heads; and dominion was given to it.”
Oh yes, and there is the Leopard which will represent the belly and thighs of brass on the Image. The Leopard will consist of the Kenites during the Five Month Long Hour of Temptation, and they have four heads which represents the Four Hidden Dynasties of Satan.
As we see here in verse 6 , dominion will be given to the Leopard because it will be the Leopard and its four hidden dynasties of their father that will make up the infrastructure of this political beast.
Yes, this image that we are seeing in Daniel Chapter 2, and the four beast that we are in the process of looking at, make up the one world political beast that will rise up from the sea (people) at the beginning of the Five Month Long Hour of Temptation.
But before we go to the book of Revelation to look further at the one world political beast, let’s take a look at the final component of iron which is diverse from the Lion (gold) Bear(silver) and Leopard, (brass).
Daniel 7:7 KJVS
“After this I saw in the night visions, and behold a fourth beast, dreadful and terrible, and strong exceedingly; and it had great iron teeth: it devoured and brake in pieces, and stamped the residue with the feet of it: and it was diverse from all the beasts that were before it; and it had ten horns.”
Diverse from the Lion (gold), Bear (silver) and Leopard (brass) this fourth beast of Daniel Chapter 7 is exclusively supernatural, because this fourth beast of Iron will consist of Satan and his fallen angles. Looking at this fourth beast it has ten horns, and the ten horns are ten supernatural kings that will be cast out of heaven at the beginning of the Five Month Long Hour of Temptation with Satan along with the rest of his fallen angels at the Woe of the Fifth Trumpet.
These ten supernatural kings will reign as kings one Hour with the beast which is the Five Month Long Hour of Temptation.
Revelation 17:12-13 KJVS
“And the ten horns which thou sawest are ten kings, which have received no kingdom as yet; but receive power as kings one hour with the beast. [13] These have one mind, and shall give their power and strength unto the beast.”
These four beasts complete the one world political beast that is spoken about in Revelation Chapter 13.
Revelation 13:1 KJVS
“And I stood upon the sand of the sea, and saw a beast rise up out of the sea, having seven heads and ten horns, and upon his horns ten crowns, and upon his heads the name of blasphemy.”
According to the original manuscripts in verse one, it should say ” the Dragon stood upon the sand of the sea” (see E.W Bullinger’s original commentary on the book of Revelation).
And John saw a beast rise up out of the sea which are people (Revelation Chapter 17 :15) as we also seen in Daniel Chapter 7 verses 2 and 3.
Seven heads are the seven mountains (Revelation Chapter 17 :9) which are the seven continents, which tells us that this one world political beast will encompass the entire earth.
We see the ten horns, and upon the ten horns are ten crowns. Upon his heads (seven continents) the name of blasphemy which represents the rest of the fallen angels Satan brings with him at the beginning of the Five Month Long Hour of Temptation.
Verse 1 in Revelation Chapter 13 we see Daniel Chapter Sevens exclusively supernatural fourth beast (iron).
And in verse 2
Revelation 13:2 KJVS
“And the beast which I saw was like unto a leopard, and his feet were as the feet of a bear, and his mouth as the mouth of a lion: and the dragon gave him his power, and his seat, and great authority.”
We see the gold (Lion), silver (Bear) and brass (Leopard).
The Dragon will give it his power, seat and authority.
All four components must be here to make up this one world political beast that will emerge from the sea when the four winds are released upon the earth at the beginning of the Hour of Temptation.
Revelation 13:3-5 KJVS
“And I saw one of his heads as it were wounded to death; and his deadly wound was healed: and all the world wondered after the beast. [4] And they worshipped the dragon which gave power unto the beast: and they worshipped the beast, saying, Who is like unto the beast? who is able to make war with him? [5] And there was given unto him a mouth speaking great things and blasphemies; and power was given unto him to continue forty and two months.”
Towards the middle of the Five Month Long Hour of Temptation the political beast will receive a Deadly Head Wound and will change from a one world political beast to a one world religious beast in the middle of the Five-month period when that head wound is healed by the appearence of little horn (Satan’s appearance as the false Christ) at the Woe of the Sixth Trumpet.
Daniel 7:8 KJVS
“I considered the horns, and, behold, there came up among them another little horn, before whom there were three of the first horns plucked up by the roots: and, behold, in this horn were eyes like the eyes of man, and a mouth speaking great things.”
Little horn with eyes like a man, and with a mouth speaking great things will pluck up the three Christian nations (geopolitically) into his one world religious system while consuming (spiritually) the third of the world’s population who are Christians into to his defiled body. He will achieve this with his appearance as the last king of Babylon) and will become the head of gold of the Image that we are seeing the interpretation thereof.
To be continued.
