JEREMIAH 50: wecrymerc

Let us back up a chapter and see what WISDOM Jeremiah 50 can offer us concerning this NEAR FAR PROPHECY:

Jeremiah 50: 1 The word that the LORD spake against Babylon [and] against the land of the Chaldeans by Jeremiah the prophet.

Jeremiah 50: 2 Declare ye among the nations, and publish, and set up a standard; publish, [and] conceal not: say, Babylon is taken, Bel is confounded, Merodach is broken in pieces; her idols are confounded, her images are broken in pieces.

Please allow me to make this comment first before we begin this study:

Our LORD is a WONDERFUL, MERCIFUL COUNSELOR. HE is also, RIGHTEOUS, JUST and HOLY. Through HIS wonderful GRACE and through HIS PROPHETS HE WARNS HIS PEOPLE and a WICKED WORLD of HIS JUDGMENTS.

HE did this throughout the OLD TESTAMENT and HE is doing this even now through HIS people today.

For those that don’t want to HEAR HIS WARNINGS or STUDY HIS PROPHECIES will be left unprepared for the dark days ahead, and subject to the lies and deceptions of the enemy.

Those that seek to CUT OFF or SILENCE the HAND or FOOT, which is GIVEN as a measure of HIS MINISTRY GIFTS to the BODY, that is meant for the COMMON GOOD, are truly being UNJUST and showing PARTIALITY to the other ministry gifts.  May the LORD find MERCY.  

We don’t study the EVENTS of the WORLD to make them fit into the WORD of GOD, but through the WORD we seek REVELATION that the events of the WORLD according to scripture would be revealed.

The WORD of GOD holds all the AUTHORITY and satan can not accomplish his will without the LORD’S foreknowledge or authority. Satan will seek to devour, cause fear, and confusion to the BODY of CHRIST, and though he will make many attempts the BODY of CHRIST, ONLY the LORD knows what he ALLOWED to be SUCCESSFUL at.

NOW on with the STUDY:

 LET us begin with verse 2.. THE LORD SAID:

JEREMIAH 50: 2 DECLARE ye among the nations, PUBLISH, set up a standard. CONCEAL NOT.

Jeremiah has been commanded by the LORD to “NOT CONCEAL” the events that are about to unfold. To DECLARE the JUDGMENT and to PUBLISH IT.

JEREMIAH 50: 3 For out of the north there cometh up a nation against her, which shall make her land desolate, and none shall dwell therein: they shall remove, they shall depart, both man and beast.

JEREMIAH 50: 4  In those days, and in that time, saith the LORD, the children of Israel shall come, they and the children of Judah together, going and weeping: they shall go, and seek the LORD their God.

For me JEREMIAH 50: 4 holds some of the most convincing evidence that this is a NEAR FAR PROPHECY. 

1. IN THOSE DAYS, and in THAT TIME.

It appears that this is proclaiming that this prophecy is TWO FOLD. IT will happen once, and then it will happen again.

2. ALSO, in JEREMIAH’S time ISRAEL had already been captured by ASSYRIA. During the DIVIDED KINGDOM, ISRAEL had been exiled around 733 BC when JEREMIAH ministry is typically known to have occurred around 626-585 BC.

Jeremiah is prophecy says that ISRAEL and JUDAH (the divided kingdom) will come together, weeping and seeking their GOD. So he was obviously speaking of a FUTURE EVENT.

The TWO divided KINGDOMS have not fulfilled this prophecy as of today.

Jeremiah 50: 5 They shall ask the way to Zion with their faces thitherward, [saying], Come, and let us join ourselves to the LORD in a perpetual covenant [that] shall not be forgotten.

Jeremiah 50: 8 Remove out of the midst of Babylon, and go forth out of the land of the Chaldeans, and be as the he goats before the flocks.

Jeremiah 50: 9 For, lo, I will raise and cause to come up against Babylon an assembly of great nations from the north country: and they shall set themselves in array against her; from thence she shall be taken: their arrows [shall be] as of a mighty expert man; none shall return in vain.

What we do know “in that time”, that the MEDES captured BABYLON, they basically took over the GREAT CITY BABYLON and the CENTRAL CITY of their EMPIRE was “SUSA”.

Susa is actually located in IRAN. According to the map, it is located to the EAST of BABYLON.

MAP

LINK: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Susa

So a COUPLE Of interesting question are:

When the LORD SAID an “ASSEMBLY of GREAT NATIONS from the NORTH” will enter in:

What exactly did HE mean: Would they enter in from the NORTH of BABYLON or was HE referring to an END TIME BEAST, of GREAT NATIONS that will enter in from the NORTH? I don’t know the answer to that.

The MEDES and PERSIANS, were always consider as ONE KINGDOM, when in fact they were actually Two kingdoms that seemingly worked together.

JEREMIAH 50: 13 Because of the wrath of the LORD it shall not be inhabited, but it shall be wholly desolate: every one that goeth by Babylon shall be astonished, and hiss at all her plagues.

In JEREMIAH 50: 13 we see that the LORD is about to pour out HIS WRATH, and that BABYLON will not be INHABITED. BABYLON will be desolate and everyone that goeth by BABYLON shall be astonished, and his at all her plagues.

Two things here that I find interesting:

1. BABYLON is desolate
2. Everyone will be astonished, at her plagues

AS an empire BABYLON has faded, it never fully recovered as an EMPIRE, history tells us that this happen at some point in the second century A.D.

Yet it has not become DESOLATE, nor has it become Uninhabited as a land, as has been PROPHESIED. (JEREMIAH 50: 35-39)

Personally I have not found anything CONCERNING PLAGUES that were announced over BABYLON of that day. Please if anyone knows the history on that please let me know.

This verse also reminded me of what is prophesied in REV 17: 6, the FUTURE BABYLON EMPIRE.

REV 17: 6 And I saw the woman drunken with the blood of the saints, and with the blood of the martyrs of Jesus: and when I saw her, I wondered with great admiration.

REV 17: 7 And the angel said unto me, Wherefore didst thou marvel? I will tell thee the mystery of the woman, and of the beast that carrieth her, which hath the seven heads and ten horns.

REV 17: 8 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.

The words:

Admiration  actually means “amazement”

Perditions actually means “destruction”

It appears that the END-TIME BABYLON will fulfill the prophecy to completion:

REV 18: Therefore shall her plagues come in one day, death, and mourning, and famine; and she shall be utterly burned with fire: for strong [is] the Lord God who judgeth her.

REV 18: 10 Standing afar off for the fear of her torment, saying, Alas, alas, that great city Babylon, that mighty city! for in one hour is thy judgment come.

LET us also remember that the LORD SAID concerning the END-TIME EMPIRE:

REV 18: 5 For her sins have reached unto heaven, and God hath remembered her iniquities.

REV 18: 6 Reward her even as she rewarded you, and double unto her double according to her works: in the cup which she hath filled fill to her double.

REV 18: 21 And a mighty angel took up a stone like a great millstone, and cast [it] into the sea, saying, Thus with violence shall that great city Babylon be thrown down, and shall be found no more at all.

Conclusion: 

Could JEREMIAH’S prophecy be TWO FOLD? Considered a NEAR FAR PROPHECY? You will have to decide for yourself, but it appears to me that the END TIME EMPIRE BABYLON, will be subject very much to the PROPHECY the LORD gave to JEREMIAH as a final fulfillment of HIS WORD.

IF this is TRUE: That JEREMIAH'S prophecy was a NEAR FAR PROPHECY

And the BABYLON of OLD was considered an EMPIRE, with BABYLON as the CENTRAL CITY of POWER. SHOULD we also be looking at something that very much RESEMBLES this empire in the FUTURE END-TIME EMPIRE of REVELATIONS?  

Amen.

COMPARING PROPHECY to PROPHECY JEREMIAH 51: wecrymercy

Could Jeremiah 51 be a NEAR FAR Prophecy?

Jeremiah 51: 6 Flee out of midst of Babylon, and deliver every man his soul/life: be not cut off in her iniquity; for “THIS IS THE TIME OF LORD’S VENGEANCE; HE will render unto her a recompense.

There are TWO things in this verse alone that lead to the IDEA of a NEAR/FAR Prophecy:

(note: near/far simply means it happens once then happens again at a future date)

1. During the time of the First Invasion of BABYLON Jeremiah 29: 5 the people were told to LIVE among the Babylonians, to build houses and plant gardens etc. In this Prophecy they are TOLD TO FLEE.
2. The LORD speaks of “THIS being the time of HIS VENGEANCE”.

Jeremiah 51: 7 Babylon hath been a golden cup in the LORD’S hand, that made all the earth drunken; the NATIONS have drunken of her wine: therefore the NATIONS are mad/deranged.

Let’s take a closer look at this verse:

1. BABYLON is referred to a HER

In Revelations, Babylon is also referred to a HER.

REV 17: 4.. and having a GOLDEN CUP in her hand, full of abominations and filthiness of her fornicatons.

Rev 17: 5 And upon HER forehead was a name written, a MYSTERY, BABYLON THE GREAT, THE “MOTHER” of harlots and ABOMINATION Of the “EARTH”

2. A golden cup in the LORD’S hand:

Remember the CUP OF WRATH for all NATIONS?  JEREMIAH 25: 15-32

JEREMIAH 25 Thus saith the LORD of hosts, behold evil shall go forth from NATION to NATION, and a great whirlwind shall be raised up from the coasts of the earth.. (the beast from the sea)

Jeremiah was commanded to take this cup and force all the kings to DRINK Of it.

Jeremaih 25: 26… and all the kingdoms of the world.

IN my opinion, that REVELATIONS will be the FULFILLMENT of JER 25: 26.

Jeremiah 51: 8 Babylon is suddenly fallen and destroyed; howl for her; take balm for her pain, if so be she may be healed.

9 We would have healed BABYLON, but she is not healed; forsake her, and let us go every one into his own country: for her judgment reacheth unto heaven, and if lifted up even to the skies.

Let us compare that to REVELATIONS:

REV 18: 5 For her sins have reached unto heaven, and God hath remembered her iniquities.

REV 18: 6 Reward her even as she rewarded you, and double unto her double according to her works: in the cup which she hath filled fill to her double.

For me this is a most interesting PROPHECY. During JOHN’S time BABYLON (550BC) had been long gone as an EMPIRE, Rome was the DOMINATE EMPIRE of his time,   yet the PROPHECY in REVELATIONS says to reward her DOUBLE according to her works.  It is a difficult prophecy, but I often wonder if it TRULY means that the REWARD of BABYLON is coming around a SECOND TIME, for her sins and abominations.  Though BABYLON was destroyed as an EMPIRE, the LAND of BABYLON was not left DESOLATE as she will be in the END TIME PROPHECY.

Some interesting FACTS about the OLD BABYLON to consider for the END TIME BABYLON:

Jeremiah 51: 17-18

1. JEREMIAH refers to her as one that DWELLEST upon many waters.
2. ABUNDANT in TREASURES
3. Thine end is come, and MEASURE of thy COVETOUSNESS.
4. Every man is brutish by his KNOWLEDGE (PRIDE)
5. confounded by the graven image, his molten image is falsehood (idolatry)
6. They are VANITY

JEREMIAH 51: 24-25

24. I will render unto BABYLON and to ALL the inhabitants of Chaldea all their EVIL that they have done in ZION in your sight saith the LORD.

25. Behold, I am against thee, O destroying MOUNTAIN, saith the LORD, which destroyest all the earth; and I will stretch out mine hand upon thee, and roll thee down from the rocks, and will make thee a burnt mountain.

Notice that BABYLON is considered a DESTROYING MOUNTAIN.  Empire’s are often considered MOUNTAINS, of power, and dominance. This DESTROYING MOUNTAIN has DESTROYED ALL the earth. BABYLON has “dominated the earth” with its EMPIRE and POWER.

Again let us compare the OLD BABYLON to the NEW BABYLON:

JEREMIAH 51: 35 The violence done to me and to my flesh [be] upon Babylon, shall the inhabitant of Zion say; and my blood upon the inhabitants of Chaldea, shall Jerusalem say.

REV 18: 20 Rejoice over her, [thou] heaven, and [ye] holy apostles and prophets; for God hath avenged you on her

Stopping here for today:

Conclusion:

Jeremiah SEEMS to be giving a NEAR FAR PROPHECY:

IF that is true we can gain some WISDOM from OLD BABYLON compared to the BABYLON Of END TIMES:  (note: read REV. 18 and compare these WORKS of her hands to these)

1. She will be a LEADING CITY, in an EMPIRE
2. She will be a EMPIRE by many waters, with an abundance of treasures
3. full of COVETOUSNESS and PRIDE
4. Filled with IDOLS
5. AND bless be our SOUL, destroyed by GOD’S plan and will for the BLOOD of the prophets and saints.

Babylon of OLD lead the people of GOD into IDOLATRY,, to worship their goods, to seek treasures of that time, to covetousness. 

What do you suppose the BABYLON OF OUR TIME WILL DO???

REV 18: 14 And the fruits that thy soul lusted after are departed from thee, and all things which were dainty and goodly are departed from thee, and thou shalt find them no more at all.

THE MILLION DOLLAR QUESTION:

YOU will have to decide for yourself..

IS BABYLON the APOSTATE CHURCH or is BABYLON a EMPIRE/CITY with GAINS and LUST that the Body of CHRIST will "SELL" themselves over to because of THEIR ON DESIRES of lust and abominations??

WE must ALWAYS keep in mind that the LORD OF LORD’S will RETURN the SECOND time to take POSSESSION of what is RIGHTFULLY HIS.

REV  19: 15 and out of HIS MOUTH goeth a sharp sword, that with it he should smite the NATIONS; and he shall RULE them with a rod of iron: and HE will treadeth the winepress of the fierceness and wrath of ALMIGHTY GOD.

REV 19: 16 And HE hath on HIS vesture KING OF KINGS and LORD OF LORDS.

PRAISE HIS NAME, and surrender to the KING.

WE must KEEP OUR EYES and HEART focused on the LORD. KNOW that HIS PROPHECIES are TRUTH, and HE IS WORTHY to be PRAISE and HONORED. FOR HIS AUTHORITY STANDS above ALL others.. AMEN.

Conspiracy VS Biblical Prophecy: wecrymercy

Dan 12: 7 And I heard the man clothed in linen, which [was] upon the waters of the river, when he held up his right hand and his left hand unto heaven, and sware by him that liveth for ever that [it shall be] for a time, times, and an half; and when he shall have accomplished to scatter the power of the holy people, all these [things] shall be finished.

What are you doing BODY OF CHRIST??????

Are you spending your days studying the WORD of GOD?
Seeking HIS FACE?
Seeking to HEAR HIS PLANS for your life?

OR are you studying, seeking to divide, consuming the works of man and satan? CONSISTENTLY seeking out the plans of the enemy and man?

Satan surely is fulfilling the above scripture. 

Have you noticed: talking about the WORD of GOD or HIS prophecies is forbidden not only in the WORLD, but also among many forums and even among CHRISTIAN sites is this a time of . SCATTERING the Power of the HOLY PEOPLE?.

It seems all I see and hear is the SAINTS pouring over the works of man and satan.
Do you really think KNOWING the plan of the enemy is going to save you?
Can you truly escape what the LORD has planned for you?

Consistently seeking out the GOVERNMENTS PLANS:

What has the government planned next etc etc etc.

The LORD KNOWS the PLANS of the ENEMY, they are NOT HIDDEN FROM HIM. 

Search the SCRIPTURES to find the TRUTH that is to come. So that you will not be TOSSED TO and FRO.




For no plan of the enemy is going to succeed without the LORD'S WILL.

KNOWING where the LORD would have you in these times, even if it comes to YOUR DEATH, is what WE MUST DESIRE MOST.

To STUDY the PROPHECIES of the LORD, you begin to build a WALL of untempered mortal, 

AS prophecy is REVEALED, we begin to know where to FIRMLY plant our feet. That the deceptions of the enemy can not gain a foothold in our life. The desire should be to KNOW OUR LORD'S plan and WILL, not the enemies.

Do you realize that by putting all this FOCUS ON and DISCOVERY of  the "conspiracies of men", you are giving him/the enemy more credit than you are giving GOD honor and praise?
The enemy has many plans, that will never come to TRUTH. But as long as he can keep you focused there, he has you RIGHT where he wants you, NOT HEARING from the LORD.

THE LORD'S  TRUTH will set us FREE of worry, pain, lies, deception and confusion.

GOD"S WORD: (whether spoken or written)

HIS WORD will give instruction and HIS “WORD through the PROPHET” will give us TRUE WARNINGS, that are meant to keep us SAFE in HIS WINGS.

TRUE prophecy is HIS MERCY  HIS GIFT, poured over HIS BODY, for their SAFETY,  and righteous JUDGMENT etc.

Since the enemy can succeed at nothing without GOD'S permission, wouldn't it seem responsible to KNOW FROM GOD"S WORD what the enemies success will be?

Wouldn’t it seem FAR more important to KNOW what the LORD has planned than what the enemy is doing?

Wouldn’t it be FAR MORE IMPORTANT to know what will SAVE YOUR SOUL, than what WILL DESTROY your flesh?

SO what!!!!! a “METEOR” is going to land on the earth. LET it land!!! please let it land on my HEAD. There is NOTHING of this WORLD that want or can’t be REPLACED in HEAVEN where my SAVIOR AND LORD LIVES.

There is NOTHING the enemy can do that GOD does NOT ALLOW. SO the control is in HIS HANDS.  HIS plans WILL COME TO PASS, because HIS WORD NEVER FAILS.

So with that, I will offer a couple of suggestions:

TURN off that TV, get your face out of that computer, SPEND your time in the WORD of GOD, Discover HIS PLAN, and INSTRUCTION for YOUR life. BE OBEDIENT to whatever HE calls you to. Forget the works of man and SEEK to HEAR HIS VOICE. For ONLY trough that will YOU be able to ENDURE what is coming. TELL your family and love ones about CHRIST. SPEND what time you have LEFT communing with the LORD.

RISE UP BODY OF CHRIST and let us get a GODLY PROSPECTIVE on these things!!! And always remember THE WORD OF GOD has the AUTHORITY!!! JESUS CHRIST, the HOLY SPIRIT, and the WORD will never contradicted themselves, THEY ARE ONE in UNITY, and WILL.

AMEN.

Has anyone told you lately.. That JESUS CHRIST wins the war? And ALL honor and glory will go to HIS NAME, HIS WORK and HE will be PRAISED!!!

REV 19: 1  And after these things I heard a great voice of much people in heaven, saying, Alleluia; Salvation, and glory, and honour, and power, unto the Lord our God:

WARNING: PREPARE!!!! TO COME OUT OF HER MY PEOPLE

Mic 3: 4 
Then shall they cry unto the LORD, but he will not hear them: he will even hide his face from them at that time, as they have behaved themselves ill in their doings.

Mic 3: 5  Thus saith the LORD concerning the prophets that make my people err, that bite with their teeth, and cry, Peace; and he that putteth not into their mouths, they even prepare war against him.

EZ 21: 7

And it shall be, when they say unto thee, Wherefore sighest thou? that thou shalt answer, For the tidings; because it cometh: and every heart shall melt, and all hands shall be feeble, and every spirit shall faint, and all knees shall be weak [as] water: behold, it cometh, and shall be brought to pass, saith the Lord GOD.
Why people doubt HIS WARNING?  LORD how do I them understand???

How many warnings does HE Have to give before YOU will pay attention and receive it in the LOVING MERCIFUL manner in which HE HAS SHARED?


Why do you continue to believe that the CHILDREN of GOD will be SPARED when HE has WARNED OVER AND OVER AGAIN.

You "DESIRE" to LIVE in your IGNORANCE. and SIMPLICITY, as though IGNORANCE IS BLISS, thinking life is going to be easy for GOD'S CHILDREN.  YOU will suffer and YOUR Family is going to suffer NEEDLESSLY, unless you are WALKING in HIM and FOLLOWING HIM IN OBEDIENCE. Whatever HE tells you to do, be OBEDIENT to it.


Walking in FAITH comes from a LIFESTYLE that has EXERCISED FAITH through OBEDIENCE. FAITH is INCREASED by "WITNESSING" the WORK OF GOD in our LIVES. IF you have never WALKED BY FAITH through OBEDIENCE, now is the time to start, not when she collapses.





CHAOS is COMING:  And some of you are going to be RIGHT IN THE MIDDLE OF IT from your dependence upon the government.

There will NOT be PEACE for those that are DEPENDENT upon HER/HARLOT,  destruction is coming, enmity between GOD"S ELECT and SATAN'S KINGDOM. Satan is GIVEN Authorithy to RULE and to hunt and destroy the BODY of CHRIST..


There is ONLY ONE SALVATION, and it is IN CHRIST JESUS, dead or alive.

The LORD has given me a TASK, a WARNING to WARN, and ALARM to ALARM.
PREPARE to "COME OUT OF HER MY PEOPLE" or YOU WILL SUFFER along with HER and HER PEOPLE.

The GREAT TRIBULATION is not about the WICKED WORLD being punished, but about the BODY of CHRIST being PURIFIED.  



Rev 18: 4 
And I heard another voice from heaven, saying, Come out of her, my people, that ye be not partakers of her sins, and that ye receive not of her plagues. 

Rev 18: 5 
For her sins have reached unto heaven, and God hath remembered her iniquities.


IF your LIFE Is dependent upon the GOVERNMENT, for your SECURITY, your SALVATION,  for your food, health etc. You are going to find yourself LACKING. 

The JUDGMENT is coming on Financial Market and their are those that will ONLY care about themselves.


YOU MUST PREPARE to become an INDEPENDENT/ SET APART individual from the GOVERNMENT, filled with and LIVING in FAITH, walking in HIM to survive this SPIRITUALLY and PHYSICALLY. IF the RIGHTEOUS are dwelling within her they will receive the same judgment. To be IN HER/HARLOT you will either be captured or subject to FAMINE.


Perhaps some of US will be lucky enough to die an EARLY death, but dieing by STARVATION based on your own decision to not SEEK GOD through FAITH and OBEDIENCE will not be the DESIRED OPTION. The LORD does not have to RESCUE YOU from your own RECKLESSNESS.

There is ONLY ONE OPTION:

IS TO REPENT of OUR SINS

DRAW NEARER TO HIM

WALK in FAITH of "OBEDIENCE" as HE CALLS
Pray for the HEALING of the BODY OF CHRIST

AND LET go and CAST OFF  OUR IDOLS, that we not be CONSUMED upon our own LUST.

ARE YOU TRULY PREPARED TO WALK OUT and leave EVERYTHING BEHIND?

Your children

Your mother

Your brother etc.

SEE: PREPARE FOR THE CALL

EZ 21: 3  

And say to the land of Israel, Thus saith the LORD; Behold, I [am] against thee, and will draw forth my sword out of his sheath, and will cut off from thee the righteous and the wicked.



Don't delay today, CALL UPON HIS NAME, seek what HE would have you do to prepare for this upcoming event of judgment upon the earth.

I BESEECH YOU DEAR BRETHREN TAKE THIS SERIOUSLY BEFORE THE LORD: 

WE are suppose to be able to REJOICE when she is DESTROYED. 

Can WE REALLY do that if we REALLY do that if we are LIVING IN HER as our security when her  DESTRUCTION comes?



REV  18: 20

Rejoice over her, [thou] heaven, and [ye] holy apostles and prophets; for God hath avenged you on her.

Step 2 in creating an EMPIRE, Daniel and John: wecrymercy

Aug 29, 2011

So in our last study we could see HOW Daniel and John through the grace and mercy of GOD were given “VISIONS” pertaining to the END OF TIME, beast and little horn,  and both visions line up together without contradiction. 

So let us go onto the next step:

Rev 13: 6 And he opened his mouth in blasphemy against God, to blaspheme his name, and his tabernacle, and them that dwell in heaven.

Rev 13: 7 And it was given unto him to make war with the saints, and to overcome them: and power was given him over all kindreds, and tongues, and nations.

Dan 7: 28 And he shall speak [great] words against the most High, and shall wear out the saints of the most High, and think to change times and laws: and they shall be given into his hand until a time and times and the dividing of time.

Dan 12: 7 And I heard the man clothed in linen, which [was] upon the waters of the river, when he held up his right hand and his left hand unto heaven, and sware by him that liveth for ever that [it shall be] for a time, times, and an half; and when he shall have accomplished to scatter the power of the holy people, all these [things] shall be finished.

Let us list the things that the LITTLE HORN does here:

1. Blasphemy God, His name, and HIS tabernacle
2. he will have POWER over “ALL” kindreds, tongues and NATIONS.(just a side note: ALL means GLOBAL)
3. the LITTLE HORN is able to make war, and overcome the saints.
4. the LITTLE HORN will be given authority for 3 ½ years
5. he will ACCOMPLISH to scatter the power of the holy people.

UNTIL all these things shall be FINISHED;

Continued:

Daniel and John's vision.. ONE STEP at a time to the end time BEAST/EMPIRE: wecrymercy

Daniel’s Vision was primarily Focused on the LITTLE HORN.

John’s VISION was primarily spent discussing the EMPIRE in which the LITTLE HORN will ultimately RULE.

So let us take the time and see HOW the TWO VISIONS line up together.

And the ANGEL explained the VISION of DANIEL.

Daniel 7: 16 I cam near unto one of them that stood by, and asked him the TRUTH of all this….

Daniel 7: 17 The great beasts, which are four, are four KINGS (the word kings represent their KINGDOMS), which shall arise out of the EARTH.

(side note: the KINGDOMS come from the SEA, the KINGS come from the EARTH)

Daniel 7: 23 

Thus  he said, the fourth beast shall be the FOURTH KINGDOM BEAST shall be the FOURTH KINGDOM upon earth, which shall be DIVERSE from all KINGDOMS and shall devour the WHOLE EARTH, and shall tread it down, and beast it in pieces.

IT is important to NOTE that these 10 KINGDOMS devour the WHOLE EARTH. These KINGS and Kingdoms have come an gone over the life time of the EARTH, HOWEVER at the TIME Of the END, there will ARISE a FINAL KINGDOM/EMPIRE, more power than any of its predecessors

To be DIVERSE—is much like the 10 toes, of clay and iron. Some RULING/ dominating KINGDOMS, and others made of Clay/smaller kings that don’t have as much dominance or INFLUENCE.. These KINGDOMS/NATIONS/COUNTRIES will rule the WHOLE EARTH.

(Daniel's vision included the 4th being ROME, 5th, and 6th empires)

Daniel 7: 24 And the ten horns (kings) out of this kingdom are TEN KINGS that shall arise, AND ANOTHER SHALL RISE AFTER THEM; AND he shall be diverse from the first, and shall subdue three kings.

Out of this 4th BEAST  (ROME) comes a KINGDOM of 10 kings and AFTER the 10 KINGS, the LITTLE HORN Rises, he will subdue 3, in his subduing he doesn’t have to take OWNERSHIP, only that he is able to bring them into submission to him and his authority.

Now let us take a LOOK at REVELATIONS and JOHN’S vision and see how it LINES up with DANIEL.

(John's vision works from the 6th to the 7th and 8th beast)
5 have fallen:  Egypt, Assyria, Babylonian, Persian, Greek
1 is,   ROME
1 is still to come, REV 13, the beast out of the sea.
and the 8th is of the 7.

I believe though not conclusively: 

That Daniel's 6th beast and John's 8th beast are the same beast.

REV 13: 1 And I stood upon the sand of the sea (KINGDOM) , and saw a BEAST rise up out of the sea, having SEVEN heads and TEN HORNS (KINGS), and upon his HORNS ten CROWNS (authority), and upon his HEADS the name of Blasphemy.

Rev 13: 3 And I saw one of his heads( NATION/COUNTRY/KINGDOM)  as it were wounded to death; and his deadly wound was healed: and all the world wondered after the BEAST (EMPIRE).

Rev 13: 4 And they worshipped the dragon which gave power unto the beast: and they worshiped the beast, saying, Who [is] like unto the beast? who is able to make war with him?

WHO IS LIKE THE BEAST/ EMPIRE? WHO is able to make WAR with HIM?

This BEAST/EMPIRE has become so POWERFUL that NO ONE is able to stand against it or the him that is Ruling it.

What BEAST is JOHN referring to?

HE is referring the HEAD (a HEAD is a KINGDOM, a HORN is the KING)  that was HEALED that has come AFTER the first 10 KINGDOMS. Just like DANIEL this POWERFUL BEAST/EMPIRE has risen out of the first 10 kings and kingdoms.

Rev 13: 5 And there was given unto him a mouth speaking great things and blasphemies; and power was given unto him to continue forty [and] two months

BY REV 13: 5 the GREAT TRIBULATION begins with the KING/LITTLE horn ruling the EMPIRE.

Rev 13: 7 And it was given unto him to make war with the saints, and to overcome them: and power was given him over all kindreds, and tongues, and nations.

Please spend some time seeking the LORD on this, before you continue onto the next study.

blessings donna

2 Cor 6: 1 We beseech you also that ye receive not the grace of GOD in VAIN.

2 Cor 6: 1 We then, [as] workers together [with him], beseech [you] also that ye receive not the grace of God in vain.

2 Cor 6: 14 Be ye not unequally yoked together with unbelievers: for what fellowship hath righteousness with unrighteousness? and what communion hath light with darkness?

A WISE SERVANT and FAITHFUL SERVANT would do WELL to follow the WISDOM of GOD through these scriptures:

BE YE NOT UNEQUALLY YOKED: dating, fellowshipping (endearing ourselves to), even considering dating with the idea of MARRIAGE to a NON CHRISTIAN would be a foolish act for a member of the BODY of CHRIST.

Light vs darkness

Righteousness vs unrighteousness

The TWO  KINGDOMS can not mix, for they will divide the other.

To YOKE/to put ourselves into bondage with an UNBELIEVER is binding ourselves to a life time of SORROW and PAIN. One can SIMPLY NOT come to ONENESS in a relationship where TWO people are SERVING two different KINGDOMS.

We are the TEMPLE of the LIVING GOD, we are CALLED to have no fellowship (endearments/agreements/bondage) with IDOLS or INFIDELS. 

2 Cor 6: 15 And what concord hath Christ with Belial? or what part hath he that believeth with an infidel?

Belial means "Worthlessness or wickedness".

Concord simply means AGREEMENT/ covenant.

Infidel meaning LOST/ Faithless /unbeliever

1) unfaithful, faithless, (not to be trusted, perfidious)

2) incredible

a) of things

3) unbelieving, incredulous

a) without trust (in God)

2 Cor 6: 16 And what agreement hath the temple of God with idols? for ye are the temple of the living God; as God hath said, I will dwell in them, and walk in [them]; and I will be their God, and they shall be my people.

Paul is ADMONISHING the believer to not YOKE/bond themselves with the UNBELIEVERS as WELL as IDOLS that pollute/abominate the temple of GOD, Body, mind and soul.

2 Cor 6: 17 Wherefore come out from among them, and be ye separate, saith the Lord, and touch not the unclean [thing]; and I will receive you,

To be SEPARATE is the same as HOLY/SET APART.

UNCLEAN

1) not cleansed, unclean

a) in a ceremonial sense: that which must be abstained from according to the levitical law

b) in a moral sense: unclean in thought and life

2 Cor 6: 18 And will be a Father unto you, and ye shall be my sons and daughters, saith the Lord Almighty.

2 Cor 7: 1 Having therefore these promises, dearly beloved, let us cleanse ourselves from all filthiness of the flesh and spirit, perfecting holiness in the fear of God.

CLEANSING ourselves from FILTHINESS of the SPIRIT and FLESH.

The PROMISES of GOD are ETERNAL, a life of ABUNDANT LIVING in HIM, BLESSED by HIM, through the following of HIS precepts and PRINCIPALS.

_____________________________________________________________________

2 Cor 7: 3  I speak not [this] to condemn [you]: for I have said before, that ye are in our hearts to die and live with [you].

2 Cor 7: 9 Now I rejoice, not that ye were made sorry, but that ye sorrowed to repentance: for ye were made sorry after a godly manner, that ye might receive damage by us in nothing.

2 Cor 7: 10 For godly sorrow worketh repentance to salvation not to be repented of: but the sorrow of the world worketh death.

2 Cor 7: 11 For behold this selfsame thing, that ye sorrowed after a godly sort, what carefulness it wrought in you, yea, [what] clearing of yourselves, yea, [what] indignation, yea, [what] fear, yea, [what] vehement desire, yea, [what] zeal, yea, [what] revenge! In all [things] ye have approved yourselves to be clear in this matter. 

These things were not meant to CONDEMN the BELIEVER, but to bring about GODLY SORROW To REPENTANCE. RENEWAL, REBIRTH, Conforming us to the MIND and IMAGE OF CHRIST.

In the FLESH we can only come to GODLY SORROW, from our SORROW of SIN the HOLY SPIRIT and the WORD of GOD, are able to bring us to the INDIGNATION/angry at your SIN, FEAR (REVERANCE) and a VEHEMENT DESIRE to be CLEANSED.

To feel Indignation for sin means also that we are NO LONGER able to JUSTIFY it in our lives.

So in ALL things we may be APPROVED to be clean in these matters.

That the HOLY SPIRIT has the POWER to bring us to REPENTANCE and RESTORATION to the IMAGE OF CHRIST.

LORD JESUS, We ask that YOU bring about the GODLY SORROW needed through your WORD. Give us the DESIRE be SEPARATE and HOLY before you,  REVEAL YOURSELF as HOLY, that We may have  REVERENCE in our HEART for YOUR PRECEPTS, PRINCIPALS, the INDIGNATION for SIN, that we can CAST OFF, TRAMPLE DOWN, these STRONG HOLDS and STUMBLINGBLOCKS in our LIVES, Things that EXALT themselves above the KNOWLEDGE OF GOD,  that YOU be HONORED and GLORIFYED forever and ever, in JESUS NAME AMEN.

AMEN.
