https://lesfeldickbiblestudy.com Through the Bible with Les Feldick LESSON 1 * PART 3 * BOOK 81 THE SON GIVEN DOMINION AND A KINGDOM - 3 Daniel 7:9-14 Okay, good to have everybody back again for program number 3. For those of you out in television, again, we just want to welcome you to an informal Bible study. That’s all we want it to be. It is to learn how to study on your own. And, you know, I don’t attack anybody. I refuse to do that. Because my approach is, if I can show the truth simply from Scripture, they’re going to see the error. And it’s working. My goodness, how we get phone call after phone call. I had a pastor call just before we left this morning. He said, “Les, I finally see it.” Well, I didn’t have to tell him and brow beat him. The Lord just opened his eyes and he could see it. That’s been my approach, and hopefully I’ll never change from that. All right, we’re going to continue where we left off in Daniel chapter 7. But we’re going to leave it in just a minute and go back and look at some more references with regard to what God is promising here to the nation of Israel, as well as to the nations of the world once this Kingdom becomes a reality. So, let’s go back briefly to Daniel chapter 7 verses 13 and 14 for a kick-off place. Daniel 7:13-14a “I (Daniel) saw in the night visions, and behold, one like the Son of man (which is the other term for Christ of the New Testament) came with the clouds of heaven, and came to the Ancient of Days, (or before God the Father) and they brought him near before him. 14. And there was given him (that is God the Son) dominion, and glory, and a kingdom,…” And that’s what we’re looking at now for most of the afternoon—that to God the Son was given and promised a Kingdom, not just over Israel, but-- Daniel 7:14b “…that all people, nations, and languages, should serve him: (In other words, under this Kingship of Jesus of Nazareth.) his dominion is an everlasting dominion, which shall not pass away, and his kingdom that which shall not be destroyed.” Now we always like to emphasize that there is no time factor given in the Old Testament whatsoever. But when we get to the Book of Revelation, it’s what? A thousand years. All right, now we’re not going to doubt Scripture and say, well, now it can’t be forever if Revelation says a thousand years. Because as we showed in one of our previous programs this afternoon, that when you get to chapter 21, what happens after this 1,000 year kingdom scenario is destroyed? We have a new heaven and a new earth. So I think we’re on the right track to feel that somehow or other (I can’t explain it) this 1,000 year millennial reign of Christ will go right on into the eternal. And what God does with the people…we’ll leave that with Him. You know, I’m getting more and more all the time—I just tell people I can’t answer that. We’ll just wait until we get there, and then we’ll find out everything that we think we have to know. So we’re showing from the Old Testament, again, like we’ve done many times before, the promises of things pertaining to this Kingdom. Well now, we saw in our last program how that Jerusalem will be the capital of it all. Now come back to Isaiah chapter 11, a portion of Scripture you’re all acquainted with. But again, it just shows how that the King of Kings and Lord of Lords is going to rule the planet with absolute authority. He won’t need a House of Representatives or a Senate. He won’t need a Cabinet. He won’t need advisors. He’s going to be, as God, fully capable of running and ruling this Kingdom by Himself. Isaiah 11:1a “And there shall come forth….” Now you know you’ve heard me say it a hundred times over the last years. When the Bible says it shall come to pass, or it’s going to come, what can we rest on? It’s going to happen even though it hasn’t yet. God isn’t through. It’s going to happen. It’s out in front of us. We can see now that it’s getting closer and closer. How many of you are watching the daily program in Hebrews? I’m just kind of curious. Oh, my goodness, well, now you’ll know what I’m talking about. I caught just a few minutes of it this morning before we had to leave to come up here. Just a few minutes and do you realize that much of what I’m saying back there in 2001 I could have said last week? But this morning’s program just boggled me. I could have said it last week. You’d never know that that was spoken nine years ago. Well, why? Because everything is just coming now to a vortex—what I talked about ten years ago is now. It is still in the same beam, but now it’s getting closer and closer. Well, the same way with all these Old Testament things. Yes, we’ve talked about them before, but we’re so much closer now than we were when I taught it maybe a couple or three years ago. Isaiah 11:1-2 #LesFeldick #BibleStudy #Bible
