https://lesfeldickbiblestudy.com Through the Bible with Les Feldick LESSON 3 * PART 4 * BOOK 80 DANIEL – PART III - 4 Daniel 4:26 – 7:8 Okay, program number four for the afternoon. We’re all back, and we’ll get right on with it so we can get out on time and be on our way home. For those of you out in television, I trust you know by now that we put four of these programs together in one afternoon. If you’re ever in the Tulsa area, we’d love to have you stop by. The food is all gone, isn’t it? It’s just unbelievable. I went over to see if there was anything left, and, no, it’s all gone. So, if you want a good afternoon of snacks and meat from the Word – why, come in and see us. Okay, we’re going to pick right up where we left off in Daniel chapter 7. Then we’re going to run back to the New Testament. We’ll get a brief picture, where I’m not getting real in depth. And again, I always realize that when it comes to these prophetic things, it’s just like chronology. You can’t find two prophecy guys that agree. Everybody has their own idea. And I still like to stick pretty much to the ones I’ve had over the years. I’ve seen no reason to change a lot. Now, I know with the advent of Islam and the Muslim world, a lot of the prophecy guys are going in that direction—that the anti-Christ will be Muslim and all that. But I don’t think so. He may be Muslim, but he will still come out of a revived Roman Empire, and that, of course, means Western Europe. You want to remember that Europe is turning Muslim so fast, it’s no problem for somebody in the European government to be a Muslim. But anyway, the anti-Christ is probably alive and well. I think so. I think we’re that close. He will never be made known while we’re here, because he cannot make his move until after the Church is gone, as II Thessalonians tells us. But we’ll look ahead at him a little bit. You know, I don’t like to spend a lot of time on these things. We’re going to be gone in the Rapture anyway. This isn’t what really matters. It’s all right to have a cursory knowledge of these things, but don’t get all hung up on those final seven years—because, after all, we’re gone. One of the most ridiculous statements I ever got was the guy who wrote, “I can’t agree with you on a pre-trib Rapture. I want to be here.” Imagine? He can have it! He thought he wanted to be here to witness it. Well, these kinds of people are so ignorant. Just as soon as the Church is gone, our Gospel of Grace ends. And that’s the only Gospel that he would know, I would think. But you see, Jesus made it so plain in Matthew 24, that when these final seven years start, it will go back to the Kingdom Gospel, Matthew 24:14, “And this Gospel of the Kingdom shall be preached in all the world…and then shall the end come.” Well, when’s the end coming? When the seven years are finished! So somebody of the Grace persuasion won’t get very far in those seven years. So, it’s ridiculous to even think in those terms. If you’re saved, you’ll go in the Rapture; if you’re lost, you will stay. All right, we left off in Daniel 7. I’ll read it again before we jump into the New Testament and pick up some more descriptions of this little horn who comes up out of the Ten. Daniel chapter 7 once again, just to pick up where we left off—verse 8. Daniel saw in verse 7, of course, a vision of this beast who had ten horns. Now remember, these beasts are all governments. They’re not wild animals. They’re merely symbolic of these empires that would be coming, and this last revived Roman Empire would have ten horns—ten nation states or ten governments. All right, verse 8 again: Daniel 7:8a “I considered the horns, (in other words, these ten nations) and, behold there came up among them another little horn, (in the midst of the ten) before whom there were three of the first horns plucked up by the roots:…” In other words, I think it’s the three nations that are the smallest in the European Union. I’ve said this for 35 years, and I see no reason to change. It will be the three little nations of The Netherlands, Belgium, and Luxembourg. They’re all three part of the ten of the European Nations, and I think that they will all of a sudden just lose their identity. Out of those ten nations, then, will come this man anti-Christ. Daniel 7:8b “…among them another little horn, before whom there were three of the first horns plucked up by the roots: and, behold, in this horn (this coming world leader, the anti-Christ) were eyes like the eyes of a man, and a mouth speaking great things.” And I made my comment just before the end of the half hour, that he will be charismatic. He’s going to be a smooth-tongued manipulator. He’s going to be brilliant, and the world will fall at his feet. All right, come up with me now into the New Testament. #LesFeldick #BibleStudy #Bible
