Prophecy, I think for the most part because of the book of Daniel and the kings dream. The statue represents (Daniel 2; 40-43) the kingdoms of the earth, And all preachers alike are saying we are waiting on the pope to be the false prophet and an empire likened to Rome. Well this same theory of what Daniel says has been around for as long as I can remember. So for me I decided to take God for one moment out of a box. And open my mind to what else it might say. Well I found That the U.N. has 189 members to a world judicial system, and everyone knows that a judicial system, pretty much has control of that it governs, then I found that the name of this system is the Rome Statute of the International Criminal Court. It is a treaty between 189 countries and it is to force peace, it is clearly a dictatorship. And the chairman or president is a man named Phillipe Kirsch, he is French-Canadian and of European decent. I just thought that if everyone was looking one way maybe we should really look somewhere else. After all Daniel does say that the prophecy of his book will be sealed until the end. Also when reading the documents I found that they gave it (the judicial system) a personality and even called it a personality. Which makes it a person per say. It is also from the start a rocky treaty one that doesnt look at all like it will hold together. Maybe when we think rome we should look at a bigger rome. Maybe when we say world religion we should look at all religions combined that have stepped away from simplicity. God says him or mammon. So, all who worship mammon would be of one and all who worship God (yah) shall be of one. From the looks of things mammon is taking over the world. Or already has. I ask that you read this and pray over it for answers. Also remember that when we read the whole world will worship it....worship truly means bow down to...(give in)

Who needs Bach?
this howling barking dog of my neighbors.....
...:)....that I understand...:) however the book of revelation goes from before the creation of man when the angels fell to the complete fulfillment in no certain order. Daniel goes from the kingdom in his time(Babylonia)until the last kingdom on earth is destroyed....so yes I understand they go together.....thank you...two men looking at the same thing describing it the way it is shown to each one of them.
Ahhhh.
Could you share some graphics on this thread and ignore the accusations of thread hyjacking!?
Let's say . . . just for hypothetical discussion . . .
We are still immersed in Iraq and Afghanistan. Iran and Syria also require some level of attack along with North Korea.
Terrorists set off a nuke or 7 or so in NY CITY, DC, LA, Frisco and a key base or two.
China decides now is the time to retake Taiwan along with attacking our West Coast for good measure from umpteen containers full of PLA in Long Beach; flooding across the boarder with Mexicans eager to 'retake' our Southwest.
Throw in Mt Rainier lighting off and a major quake or 3 devastating Seattle as well as LA and Frisco.
Add in the New Madrid super quake.
Perhaps even add in Yellowstone.
Throw in Cuba, Russia, France, Venezuela, and a list of others as well as more varied terror attacks of a bio and chem nature.
Throw in some puppet master stooges gumming up any attempts in the Senate to support our survival.
How much do you think we'd be able to help Israel on top of half the above, much less 3/4ths or all of it?
For sure.
And that could be the RELATIVE GOOD NEWS.
Some people have had dreams and visions of AMERICANS waiting for their relatives to die so they could eat. Others were seen to hasten their relatives passing rather actively so they could have something to eat--not just some meat to eat--but SOMETHING to eat.
Others saw abortions being sold at much higher value--FOR FOOD. Others saw viable babies born but still being terminated--for food. IN THE USA.
I believe that will be the case SHORT of a lasting major spiritual rebirth and perhaps in spite of it.
In case folks hadn't noticed with Billdo and Shrillery--evil is getting worse and worse. Lawlessnness is more rampant and worse . . . and getting worse all the time.
Thankfully, God has promised that when the enemy comes in like a flood, HE WILL RAISE UP A STANDARD AGAINST IT. am awaiting such events but would just as soon that they delayed as long as possible.
Still, even the better congregations are sleeping, apathetic, full of fleshiness . . . etc. etc. etc. So, God will have to clean up HIS CHURCH first---as He has also promised to do.
Wish you were right.
I'm 100% convinced that's a wrong headed notion.
But one the enemy loves Christians to buy into.
'I will play the good cop on this one. '
Bad good cop.
Right.
Have been reading in Ezek recently in the 30 something chapter range. There's some key verses in there that make it abundantly clear that the end times did NOT occur with Babylon I and old Nebby.
There's plenty of Bible to support your assertion.
All we have to do is imagine Shrillery or some such in power again in the WhiteHouse and it would be a done deal.
Well put.
Thanks.
As Biblically predicted . . .
lawlessness and contentiousness expand lots
geometrically.
So, it's a metaphor for country music or literally music made on cowbells?
Ahhhh, now I understand your post.
. . . uhhh, I suspect the cows might prefer Bach!
thanks quix....:)
Coitenly.
Us with an affinity for the 'foolish things' of God have to stick together else we hang apart! LOL.
