In this episode, we continue the study of the book of Daniel, focusing on Daniel chapter 7 and his vision of the four great beasts. The first beast, a lion with eagle's wings, represents Babylon. The second beast, a bear, symbolizes the Medo-Persian Empire. The third beast, a leopard with four wings, represents Greece and Alexander the Great. The fourth beast, dreadful and terrible, represents the Roman Empire. The little horn that arises from the ten horns of the fourth beast represents the Antichrist. The chapter also explores God's judgment and the end times. In this conversation, we discusses the final judgment, the second coming of Christ, the thousand years of peace, the tribulation saints, the first resurrection, the battle of Gog and Magog, the destruction of the Antichrist, the rise of the Roman Empire, the persecution of the Jews, the one world government and church, the deception and offenses, the Ancient of Days and the Son of Man, the dominion of the Antichrist, the everlasting dominion of God, the true kingdom of peace, Daniel's grief and God's interpretation, the four beasts as four kingdoms, the dreadful fourth kingdom, the Antichrist's persecution of the saints, the judgment and possession of the kingdom, Daniel's troubled spirit, and hope in God's prophecies.
