In the book of
Daniel, we are given a summary of World history,
right up to
the return of Jesus Christ.
Nebuchadnezzar
had a dream, which he had forgotten.
As the dream
concerned him greatly, he called all whom he considered to be the
wisest of men in the nation, and he demanded that
they told him what he had dreamt,
and also what
the dream meant.
All of the
wise men said that it was impossible to do such a thing.
They argued
that if he told them the dream, they would interpret it.
The ultimatum
to the wise men, magicians, astrologers etc.
was that if
they did not tell him the dream, they would all be killed.
Daniel 2:5 The
king answered and said to the Chaldeans, The thing is gone from me:
if ye
will not make known unto me the dream, with the interpretation thereof,
ye shall be cut in pieces,
and your houses shall be made a dunghill.
Daniel 2:6 But
if ye shew the dream, and the interpretation thereof,
ye shall receive of me gifts
and rewards and great honour: therefore shew me the dream,
and the interpretation thereof.
. . . .
Daniel 2:10 The
Chaldeans answered before the king, and said,
There is not a
man upon the earth that can shew the king’s matter:
therefore there is
no king, lord, nor ruler, that asked such things at any magician,
or astrologer, or
Chaldean.
Daniel 2:11 And it
is a rare thing that the king requireth, and there is none other
that can shew it before the king, except the
gods, whose dwelling is not with flesh.
Daniel 2:12 For
this cause the king was angry and very furious,
and commanded to
destroy all the wise men of Babylon.
This
decree meant that Daniel, and his three friends who had been renamed by the
Chaldeans as Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego,
were also going to die.
When Daniel heard what had happened, he
went to the king and asked him for time,
and told him that he would interpret the
dream.
Daniel 2:16 Then
Daniel went in, and desired of the king that he would give him time,
and that he would shew the king the
interpretation.
Daniel 2:17 Then
Daniel went to his house, and made the thing known to Hananiah,
Mishael, and Azariah,
(These were the names
of his companions, before their names were changed)
his companions:
Daniel 2:18 That
they would desire mercies of the God of heaven concerning
this secret;
that Daniel and his fellows should not perish with the rest of the wise
men of Babylon.
Daniel and his
three friends sought the Eternal God
on the matter.
The result was that the dream and its meaning
was revealed to Daniel in a night vision.
Daniel gave thanks to the God of heaven, and
then promptly went to the king,
to tell him the dream, and its interpretation.
I have to include this verse as I say this all
the time, Daniel told the king that,
‘There is a God in heaven’,
and he gave all credit to the Eternal God for
telling him the dream and its explanation.
If we all only realise that there is a God in
heaven, and if we obey what He tells
us to do,
we will be greatly blessed, the world would not be in the present state
that it is today.
Daniel 2:28
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;
This was the dream.
Daniel 2:31 ¶
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.
Daniel 2:32
This image’s head was of fine gold, his breast and his arms of silver,
his belly
and his thighs of brass,
Daniel 2:33
His legs of iron, his feet part of iron and part of clay.
Daniel 2:34
Thou sawest till that a stone was cut out without hands,
which smote
the image upon his feet that were of iron and clay, and brake them
to pieces.
Daniel 2:35
Then was the iron, the clay, the brass, the silver, and the gold,
broken to
pieces together, and became like the chaff of the summer threshing floors;
and the
wind carried them away, that no place was found for them:
and the
stone that smote the image became a great mountain,
and filled
the whole earth.
This was the interpretation of
the dream.
Daniel 2:36
This is the dream; and we will tell the interpretation thereof before
the king.
Daniel 2:37
Thou, O king, art a king of kings: for the God of heaven hath given thee
a kingdom,
power, and strength, and glory.
Daniel 2:38
And wheresoever the children of men dwell, the beasts of the field and
the fowls
of the heaven hath he given into thine hand, and hath made thee ruler
over them
all. Thou art this head of gold. (The first Kingdom)
Daniel 2:39 And after thee shall arise another kingdom
inferior to thee,
(The second Kingdom)
and another
third kingdom of brass, which shall bear rule over
all the earth.
Daniel 2:40 And the fourth kingdom shall be strong as iron: forasmuch as iron
breaketh in
pieces and subdueth all things: and as iron that breaketh all these,
shall it
break in pieces and bruise.
It should be noted that it is
made clear that it is the Eternal God, who puts the
leaders over the nations. They
always get the leaders that they deserve.
Video: Who
Rules The World? Answer: The Basest Of Men
The First kingdom with Nebuchadnezzar at its head of Gold, this
was Babylon.
The Second kingdom, the Chest and Arms of Silver, the Medo-Persian Empire.
The Third kingdom , Belly and thighs of Brass, the Grecian Empire.
The Fourth kingdom, Feet and Toes, of Iron and Miry Clay, the Roman Empire.
When Daniel wrote this the Roman
Empire did not yet exist.
Some scholars say that there are
five kingdoms, but the interpretation of the
vision clearly states that there
are four kingdoms, each one preceding the other.
We are given many details about
the fourth kingdom.
It is very strange indeed.
The two legs do represent the
Roman Empire with its Eastern headquarters
in Constantinople, and Western
headquarters in Rome.
This same situation applies to our day, as the fourth kingdom applies
to our day.
I believe that the fourth kingdom will consist of nations whom we
consider
Eastern, formerly communist, and nations whom we consider Western.
Of course at present Greece the third
of the four kingdoms is in the E.U.
We will have to wait and see what nations will comprise the Fourth
Kingdom.
We should not be deceived by the 27 nations that at present comprise the E.U.
The fourth kingdom is hiding amongst these nations.
Several years ago I read that Germany, Italy and Spain had already come
to mutual
agreements, which would benefit themselves.
It very easy to see that other Catholic countries could easily
join them for example:
Catholic Portugal,
Austria 74% Catholic,
Romania, and Bulgaria which were originally tied to the Roman Empire.
There are Roman Catholic dominated countries such as Poland 84%
Catholic,
Slovakia 60% Catholic, Hungary 54% Catholic.
Luxembourg is not only Catholic but it is the seat of several E.U.
institutions and agencies.
The point is that there will be a mix of nations, as separate as our
two legs are
but they are still part of the composite kingdom.
There are other points of duality, but they do not really concern us,
at this time.
The legs of the image were of iron.
It should also be noted that all the four kingdoms have
been involved with the area,
now called Israel. A main emphasis in the bible concerns
all the nations that have interacted with Biblical Israel.
At present Biblical Israel have no clue who they are.
They are soon going to learn this, but it will be a very painful
lesson.
In the vision
Iron is involved. It is mentioned 4 times.
It refers to the Fourth Kingdom,
which is the Roman Empire.
Clay is mentioned 3 times in the
vision.
4 + 3 =7. In the bible 7 denotes
completeness,
but it also suggests that there
is more iron than clay.
What is certain is that the
strength of iron cannot be compared
to the strength of clay.
We should also note that the
last kingdom starts out as one thing,
that is two legs of iron, but
they then morph into feet,
with ten toes as normal feet
have, however now there is a mixture of iron with
muddy clay. This is a very
important change.
In the interpretation of the vision.
Iron is mentioned 10 times.
Clay is mentioned 6 times.
The emphasis is again on the Iron.
Man is made out of Clay, additionally 6 is the number of man, for those interested
in numerology.
This mixture, is a very strange
one, with wet sticky clay and iron.
The clay is doing nothing in
relation to the strength of the mixture,
but it is emphasised in both Daniel 2:41 and Daniel 2:42
Daniel 2:41
And whereas thou sawest the feet and toes, part of potters’ clay,
and part of
iron,
the kingdom
shall be divided; but there shall be in it of the strength of the iron,
forasmuch
as thou sawest the iron mixed with miry clay.
Daniel 2:42
And as the toes of the feet were part of iron, and part of clay,
so the
kingdom shall be partly strong, and partly broken.
Now it really begins to get
strange.
I just showed that the clay
represented men.
We are told what the mix of iron
and miry clay is in reality a mixture of men
with another substance.
Just what could this ‘Iron’ be ?
Daniel 2:43
And whereas thou sawest iron mixed with miry clay,
What we need now is a definition
of the iron.
we are told “they shall mingle themselves”.
This is telling us that some
beings, who are not human, are going to mingle themselves,
with the seed of men.
What beings have we seen
previously that mingled themselves with men ?
Of course it is fallen angels.
I need to repeat that these
giants the offspring of the fallen angels and women,
were not only very large in
size, but they were desperately wicked.
It was so awful, that the
Eternal God had to destroy everything that lived on the land,
and to start over again with
righteous Noah and his family. Even what was going on in
the minds of men was utterly
evil.
Genesis 6:4 ¶ There were
giants in the earth in those days; and also after that,
when the
sons of God came in unto the daughters of men, and they bare children
to them,
the same became mighty men which were
of old, men of renown.
Genesis 6:5 And GOD saw
that the wickedness of man was great
in the earth,
and that every imagination of the
thoughts of his heart was only evil continually.
This is precisely the situation
in which we find ourselves today,
as predicted in the bible.
We can think that we are as
technically advanced as we wish,
but if we are doing it today,
they were doing it in the days of Noah,
right down to the violence.
Matthew 24:37 But as the days of Noah were,
so shall also the coming of the Son
of man be.
Video:
Video: The Days Of Noah Revisited -A Rude Awakening
Document: The Days of
Noah Are Today Printer Friendly Copy
This is very relevant as we can
expect this to be the case today.
We have explained this in our
Days of Noah documents and videos.
This goes beyond that, in as
much as we are now having a kingdom,
where these ‘fallen angels’, are openly ruling, as well has having sexual relations
with women. As there is this
non-physical element involved, we have no idea
how long it will take for these
beings to mature, but it might be very quickly.
In any case it is my feeling
that many of these already exist today, but covertly.
Daniel 2:43 . . . . they shall mingle themselves with the seed of men:
We were also told how they will
rule, here is the verse repeated.
Daniel 2:40 And the fourth kingdom shall be strong as iron:
forasmuch
as iron breaketh in pieces and subdueth all
things:
and as iron that breaketh all these, shall it break in pieces and bruise.
This mingling of men and fallen
angels is going to be a despotic destructive scenario,
which the earth has never seen
before, and will never see again.
Man and the fallen angels will
simply will not get on together, but the fallen angels,
operating under the direction of
Satan simply do not care.
You cannot kill a spirit entity,
which is non-physical, with a bullet, which is physical.
Their only desire is to cause
death and destruction.
Hollywood, has already prepared
our minds for this type of scenario,
with the ‘Independence Day’
movie however,
there is no Will Smith to come
to our rescue.
It is the Warrior Bride Of Christ, which will be used to
confront all the existing
forces of evil, under the direction of Jesus
Christ.
This is what the loyal and faithful overcomers
are being prepared to do.
but they
shall not cleave one to another, even as iron is not mixed with clay.
We will address the last two verses
later.
Let us continue to look at the
matter of the ‘Iron’.
Satan is the god of this world.
He has been given permission by
the Eternal God to rule the world for the period
of time that man is in
rebellion. This is because as I keep explaining,
sin gives Satan the legal right
to carry out his horrific destructive activities.
Satan would very much like to be
a king, but not only is he not a king,
he will never be a king.
Satan is a prince, of the very
same rank as the other faithful and holy angels,
Michael and Gabriel. The
difference is that he is gross rebellion and tries
to thwart every move of the
Eternal God, by causing mankind to join him
in his rebellion.
Christ referred to Satan as a Prince of this world, not a king.
John 12:31
Now is the judgment of this world:
now shall the prince of this world be cast out.
John 14:30
Hereafter I will not talk much with you: for the prince of this world cometh,
and hath
nothing in me.
Satan hates mankind, because he
knows that mere dust is destined to be kings
and priests, and although he was
made of spirit, which is superior,
all angelic beings will always
be of a lower rank.
Hebrews 2:5 ¶ For unto the angels hath he not put in
subjection the world to come,
whereof we speak.
Hebrews 2:6 But one in a certain place testified, saying,
What is man,
that thou art mindful of him? or the son of
man, that thou visitest him?
Here we see that man is made
lower than the angels.
Hebrews 2:7 Thou
madest him a little lower than the angels;
Then we see that his destiny is
greater, as in the future all things will be put
under his feet, which is not the
situation today
thou crownedst him with glory and honour, and
didst set him over the works
of thy hands:
Hebrews 2:8 Thou hast put all things in subjection under
his feet. For in that he put all
in subjection under him, he left nothing that
is not put under him.
But now we see not yet all things put under
him.
We then see that Jesus as a man
was also lower than the angels,
but we know that, that was only
a temporary situation.
Hebrews 2:9
But we see Jesus, who was made a
little lower than the angels for the
suffering of death, crowned with glory and
honour; that he by the grace of God should
taste death for every man.
Hebrews 2:10
¶ For it became him, for whom are all
things, and by whom are all things,
in bringing many sons unto glory, to make the
captain of their salvation perfect
through sufferings.
Genuine believers who are overcomers
are already declared to be kings and priests,
by Christ himself.
Revelation 1:6
And hath made us kings and priests unto God and his Father;
to him be
glory and dominion for ever and ever. Amen.
Here we see that as mighty kings
and priests, far above the status of any angel,
whatsoever, we will reign upon
the earth.
Revelation 5:10
And hast made us unto our God kings and priests:
and we
shall reign on the earth.
Warning:
Do not be fooled into thinking,
that what the Eternal God promises us,
can be compared in any way to
the sad excuses, these evil despots,
the basest of men, strutting
around in the world today, as kings and priests.
We have been clearly told that
we do not have any guide, or measuring rod,
no work of either fact or
fiction, to give us some faint idea of the marvellous
future that awaits the
overcomers.
See: The Document: The Overcomers
1 Corinthians 2: 9 But as it is written, Eye hath not seen, nor ear heard,
neither
have entered into the heart of man, the things which God hath prepared
for them
that love him.
1 Corinthians 2: 10
But God hath revealed them unto us by his Spirit:
for the
Spirit searcheth all things, yea, the deep things of God.
We only see things through a
glass darkly.
1 Corinthians 13:12 For now we see through a glass, darkly; but
then face to face:
now I know in part; but then shall I know even
as also I am known.
Just when you think that all you
know is pain, suffering and frustration,
take heart, it will not always
be like that.
It was Gabriel, who was sent to
Daniel to give him understanding.
Gabriel appeared to Daniel in
the form of a man, though of course he is a holy angel.
Daniel 8:16 And I heard a man’s voice between the
banks of Ulai, which called, and said,
Gabriel,
make this man to understand the vision.
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.
Each nation is under the control
of a Fallen Angel, who has a team working for him.
The exceptions are the nations of Biblical
Israel and Judah,
which includes the English speaking people,
who have been the most blessed people
on planet earth.
In the next verse we see two
angelic princes.
One a fallen angel, who is over
the kingdom of Persia.
The second prince is Michael a
holy angel, who is one of the chief princes.
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.
In the next verse Daniel is told
by Gabriel, that when he leaves him, he has to return
to fight against the prince of
Persia.
We are then told that at this
time the prince of Greece shall come.
I take this to be another fallen
angel, as they are everywhere stirring up trouble.
Therefore the holy angels have
to restrain them.
There we were most of us
thinking that angels, had nothing to do, but just laze around !
It is important to realise that
the prince of Persia and the prince of Greece,
actually relate to two of the
four kingdoms mentioned.
In fact the second and third.
We can see that this is a very
compact, yet detailed account of what will happen.
Daniel 10:20
Then said he, Knowest thou wherefore I come unto thee?
and now
will I return to fight with the
prince of Persia: and
when I am gone forth,
lo, the prince of Grecia shall come.
Let us now consider Michael, who
we were just told is one of the chief princes.
He is very important to us.
We are told a little more about
Michael.
We are
told that he is our Prince.
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.
Whereas we are seeing that
fallen angels are assigned over non Biblical Israel
and Judah, we see that a holy
angelic Prince is assigned to Biblical Israel and Judah.
It is absolutely staggering that
these stiff necked, arrogant and rebellious people,
have such a privilege, in
addition to being the most blessed.
This is made even clearer in the
following verse.
It tells us that Michael is now
standing for us, the present
continuous tense
is used, ‘standeth’.
How can people who are so
anti-God have such a tremendous blessing?
It is all a matter of mercy and
grace.
It certainly has not been
earned.
Daniel 12:1
And at that time shall Michael stand up, the great prince which standeth
for the
children of thy people:
and there shall be a time of trouble,
such as
never was since there was a nation even to that same time:
and at that
time thy people shall be delivered,
every one
that shall be found written in the book.
We are also told that at a
specific time shall Michael stand up for the people,
the future tense is used.
This must mean that for a period
of time, Michael did not stand up for the people,
but that he will once again
stand.
Why would this be the case?
Because we are right at the
point of Jacob’s trouble.
Jacob is the name of Biblical
Israel before the Eternal God changed his name.
Genesis 32:28
And he said, Thy name shall be called no more Jacob, but Israel:
for as a prince hast thou power with God and
with men, and hast prevailed.
This is the end result of the
wrestling match between Christ and Jacob.
Note: that the coming trouble is
called Jacob’s trouble and not Israel’s trouble.
There are two points related to
this.
The Eternal God who knows the
end from the beginning, knew all about the time
when the nation now called
Israel would be set up.
Most would then declare that any
trouble would be the sole concern of the nation
called ‘Israel’, which would not
be the case at all.
The second is that the name
Jacob,
means supplanter, which is one
who takes the place of another.
Names are very important.
The Eternal God calls people
what they are in reality.
It seems that Jacob had a change
of character, and after his wrestling match
with Christ, he was now a man of
power with God and men, one who prevailed,
a prince. He no longer needed to
be devious, as he had been in the past.
By calling the coming
Tribulation ‘Jacob’s trouble’, it places the nation of Israel,
back to the time before Jacob
had power with God and men.
He would no longer wrestle and
win.
The hedge around the nation, of
the Archangel Michael, would be removed,
and would only be returned after
the nation’s well deserved punishment.
In the Ego document and video,
we considered the plight of righteous Job.
When Satan was challenged by the
Eternal God about Job, Satan complained
that he was the sort of person
that he was simply because he had been blessed
in every way by the Eternal God.
Just like we are today.
Job thought that it was the
result of the work of his own hands.
Satan was fully aware that it
was because of what the Eternal God did for Job
that he had been blessed.
Job 1:9
Then Satan answered the LORD, and said, Doth Job fear God for nought?
Job 1:10
Hast not thou made an hedge about him, and about his house,
and about
all that he hath on every side? thou hast blessed the work of his hands,
and his
substance is increased in the land.
Job 1:11
But put forth thine hand now, and touch all that he hath, and he will
curse
thee to thy
face.
There we saw that the Eternal
God handed Job to Satan, so that he could
learn the lesson that all his
blessings including his righteousness,
was not the result of the work
of his own hands at all, but the result
of blessings from the Eternal
God.
There would be angels watching
over him and his family, plus the direct intervention
of the Eternal God on his
behalf.
We have to realise how the
Eternal God personally looks after us and our families.
It is not an ethereal idea but
rather stark reality.
Genesis 20:2 And Abraham said of Sarah his
wife, She is my sister:
and
Abimelech king of Gerar sent, and took Sarah.
Genesis 20:3 ¶ But God came to Abimelech in a dream by night, and said to him,
Behold, thou art but a dead man, for the woman
which thou hast taken;
or she is
a man’s wife.
Genesis 20:4 But Abimelech had not come near her: and he
said, Lord,
wilt thou
slay also a righteous nation?
Genesis 20:5 Said he not unto me, She is my sister?
and she, even she herself said,
He is
my brother: in the integrity of my heart and innocency of my hands
have I
done this.
Genesis 20:6 And God said unto him in a dream, Yea, I know
that thou didst this
in the
integrity of thy heart; for I also withheld thee from sinning against me:
therefore
suffered I thee not to touch her.
The very same thing
happened with Sarah and Pharaoh.
Genesis 12:17 And the LORD plagued Pharaoh and his house with
great plagues
because of
Sarai Abram’s wife.
It is not a small
thing to touch those who are under the protection of the Eternal God.
The
other side of the coin is that when you are no longer under the protection
of the
Eternal God, then you become fair game for Satan and his minions.
You can clearly see
that when the Eternal withdraws His protection,
we will end up in a
rather desperate situation.

Problem The Document Printer Friendly Notes
Michael will be withdrawn from
his protective role over Biblical Israel and Judah,
which they have been enjoying
for a very long time, so that they can be taught
that serving Satan only results
in suffering and death.
That is all that he has to
offer, regardless of any promises that he makes.
As I have stated repeatedly you
only have two choices,
life or death, serving the
Eternal God or Satan.
We have shown many times that
salvation is a family matter.
Therefore we choose life not
only for ourselves but also for our families.
Deuteronomy 30:19
I call heaven and earth to record this day against you,
that I have
set before you life and death, blessing and cursing: therefore choose life,
that both
thou and thy seed may live:

The Northern Army,
and its allies will defeat Biblical Israel and Judah,
then the Fourth Kingdom, a
revival of the Roman Empire,
will then smash and break into
pieces as we have quoted earlier,
everything including the
Northern army.

The entire world is going to
learn the very same lesson,
that there is a God in heaven.
Daniel 2:40 And the fourth kingdom shall be strong as iron: forasmuch as iron
breaketh in
pieces and subdueth all things: and as iron that breaketh all these,
shall it
break in pieces and bruise.
It is the fact that there is a non-physical
element, which is represented by iron,
in the fourth kingdom, which
makes this situation not only unique, in the history
of the world, but also
absolutely and totally devastating. The intention is that no flesh
would be left alive. This will
not happen, because Christ will intervene before this
happens, and the length of the
days will also be shortened to 16 hour days.
Matthew 24:21 For then shall be great tribulation, such as
was not since the beginning
of the world to this time, no, nor ever shall
be.
Matthew 24:22 And except those days should be shortened,
there should no flesh
be saved: (This is speaking
about being saved alive, and not Salvation, as it continues
to
mention the elect, who already have received spiritual salvation)
but for the elect’s sake those days shall be
shortened.
See the Document: Shortened
Days
The New World Order is being
widely pushed and feverishly promoted,
but it will not happen.
What is going to suddenly arise
is the fourth kingdom.
It will be a world ruling
kingdom, but it will be completely different
to the New World Order, as Satan
will be directly calling the shots,
most probably from his indwelling
position in Judas Iscariot.
Details of the activity of this
fourth kingdom can be seen in the following documents.

Here To Eternity Part 3 – The Wrath Of Satan
The Wrath of Satan will be
followed by the Wrath of God,
which are all part of the Great
Tribulation.
The armies of the world will be
gathered at Aramageddon to be destroyed.
We should not overlook the fact,
that although as I stated earlier, that the four
kingdoms were sequential, there
is another element to be considered.
Elements of all these kingdoms
will exist at the end times as we are told that they
are all going to be broken into
pieces together, this is what the vision that Daniel
saw showed.
Daniel 2:34
Thou sawest till that a stone was cut out without hands,
which smote
the image upon his feet that were of iron and clay,
and brake
them to pieces.
Daniel 2:35
Then was the iron, the clay, the brass, the silver, and the gold,
broken to
pieces together,
and became like the chaff of the summer threshing floors;
and the
wind carried them away, that no place was found for them:
and the
stone that smote the image became a great mountain,
and filled
the whole earth.
We then get more information in
the interpretation of the vision.
Daniel 2:44
And in the days of these kings shall the God of heaven set up a kingdom,
which shall
never be destroyed: and the kingdom shall not be left to other people,
but it shall break in pieces and consume
all these kingdoms, and
it shall stand for ever.
Daniel 2:45
Forasmuch as thou sawest that the stone was cut out of the mountain
without
hands, and that it brake in pieces the iron, the brass, the clay, the silver,
and the
gold; the great God hath made known to the king what shall come to pass
hereafter:
and the dream is certain, and the interpretation thereof sure.
Who is going to destroy all
these kingdoms?
Who is this stone cut out
without hands?
Of course it is the returning
Christ.
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.
Christ referred to Himself as a
rock.
Of course the Roman Catholic
church perverts this and says that Peter is the rock
on which Christ built His
church.
This is absurd.
Matthew 16:18
And I say also unto thee, That thou art Peter,
and upon this rock (Himself) I will build my
church;
and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it.
Peter or Petros
means stone, Peter was a little stone.
See the Document: Was
Peter The First Pope ?
Christ is the Solid
Rock.
It is He who takes
over all the kingdoms of the world.
We sing it loudly in
Handel’s Messiah, The Hallelujah Chorus,
but do we really
understand what it means.
The conclusion of the matter is
that the fourth kingdom will be utterly destroyed,
and all the other kingdoms will be taken over
by Christ and His bride.
Revelation 11:15 And the seventh angel sounded; and there were
great voices
in heaven, saying, The kingdoms of this world
are become the kingdoms of our Lord,
and of his Christ; and he shall reign for ever
and ever.
At the very end of
this message, you might be thinking very interesting,
but it does not
really have a lot to do with me.
The truth is that it
has absolutely everything to do with you,
because like the
very courageous Esther,
who became queen of
the Medo-Persian Empire, the second kingdom.
Mordecai, her mentor
and advisor told her in the crisis when the entire Judean
population faced
complete destruction, you might have been put into this situation
in order to save the
entire nation..
Esther
4:14 . . . . and who knoweth whether thou art come to the kingdom
for such a time as
this?
I can tell you categorically and
without the tiniest shadow of a doubt,
that this is precisely the
position of genuine believers.
We are here at this point by
assignment, not time, chance nor accident,
but by the design of the Great
Eternal God, who made this decision before
the foundation of the world.
Ephesians 1:4
According as he hath chosen us in him before the
foundation of the world,
that we should be holy and without blame
before him in love:
If you are
feeling down, dejected, rejected, and even scared, do not be.
We are living at
this time by carefully planned design, by the Eternal God.
You are called to be
a mighty warrior, not a worrier.
The world that you
know is going to go through tremendous changes.
The kingdoms of this
world, including the fourth kingdom,
are going to be
literally blown away.
You are called to be
part of the team that the Eternal God will use.
What should you do
at this time ?
Just what you are
led to do at this time by the Eternal God.
At the appointed
time He will let us know what we have to do, when and how.
In the mean time,
just be prayerfully patient.
Romans 13:11 And that, knowing the time,
that
now it is high time to awake out of sleep:
for
now is our salvation nearer than
when we believed.
Be Humble Repent Listen To The Eternal God Obey Him.
This is very easy to say, but I
assure you that it is physically impossible
without the empowerment of the
Eternal God.
Just going up to some altar call,
running to some church, or isolating yourself
in the hope that somehow it will all
go away, will not do it.
What are you going to do about it before it is too
late?
