Something I posted a earlier today on another thread along the lines of 1984 and where I believe this is leading us,

evil times have arrived:

As was shown to Daniel, God uses the imagery of beasts to describe governments (kings/kingdoms) in reference to the succeeding world powers that would come after Nebuchadnezzar.

“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 on the feet as a man, and a man’s heart was given to it.” (Babylon) Daniel 7:4

We the people, elect and bring into power those we feel are aligned with our own beliefs, a mans heart was given to it = Democracy

“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.” Daniel 7:8

Antichrist is a spirit (and was already at work in Johns day) and its this spirit which empowers the “little horn” at the time of end where its also given that it can “see” like a man,

Its only been within the last two decades, with the dramatic increase and widespread availability of new technologies, communication satellites, cell towers, personal computers and now global (Tower of Babel) internet connectivity, smart phones, webcams etc., that the individual activities of law abiding free citizens everywhere on the Earth are increasingly being watched, we’ve become a surveillance society, where our every move, purchase, credit transaction, web pages visited, blog postings, opinions, habits and political affiliations along with anything else they want to know about us can be monitored, tracked, indexed and stored away until those in power need it to “protect” (oppress) us,

Its this information for which they now have the “eyes” to see, that will forever (going forward) empower those in positions of influence and will be used to hinder or give pause to anyone on the outside of this power structure having never broken any law, to even consider public service or to seek political office or promote any voice that fails to espouse politically acceptable ‘safe’ views, whereby it necessarily follows that freedom dies with it and their advantage is ever increasing,

This is not how its always been, this is not how its been even for that long of a time,

But they want us to assume its “normal” knowing that any society for which its every collective thought is consumed with finding ways to bring themselves more entertainment, joy and self-gratification, they know will eventually shrug and give up their freedom and privacy when their comfortable existence is threatened. They just need appropriate events to be adequately exploited along the way to strengthen their hold,

This is the spirit of antichrist at work,

Its “the eyes of a man,”

And its this type of spirit that is increasingly rising in power when the end of the age comes and just before Jesus bodily returns to this Earth,

“I beheld, and the same horn made war with the saints, and prevailed against them; 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.” Daniel 7:21-22

There will come Ten kings which have no power until the time of the end,

“The beast that thou sawest was, and is not; and shall ascend out of the bottomless pit, and go into perdition: and they that dwell on the earth shall wonder, whose names were not written in the book of life from the foundation of the world, when they behold the beast that was, and is not, and yet is.

And here is the mind which hath wisdom. The seven heads are seven mountains, on which the woman sitteth. And there are seven kings: five are fallen, and one is, and the other is not yet come; and when he cometh, he must continue a short space. And the beast that was, and is not, even he is the eighth, and is of the seven, and goeth into perdition.

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. These have one mind, and shall give their power and strength unto the beast.

These shall make war with the Lamb, and the Lamb shall overcome them: for he is Lord of lords, and King of kings: and they that are with him are called, and chosen, and faithful.” Revelation 17:8-14
