18 min - Daniel’s Dream: The Son of Man
Here's what I cover in this episode:
1. What is the significance of Jesus being referred to as the "Son of Man" in Daniel chapter seven?
2. What is the message of repentance being preached prior to the second coming of Jesus?
3. What does it mean that two people in one bed, one will be taken and the other left, as described in Luke chapter 17?
0:02:07
Let's begin with Daniel chapter seven, verses 13 through 14. It reads, I was watching in the night visions and behold one like the Son of man coming with the clouds of heaven. Heaven coming with the clouds of heaven. Let me do this all over again.00:02:43
And it reads, I was watching in the night visions and behold one like the Son of man coming with the clouds of heaven. He came to the Ancient of Days and they brought him near before him. Then to him was given dominion and glory, and a kingdom that all peoples, nations and languages should serve him. His dominion is an everlasting dominion which shall not pass away, and his kingdom, the witch, shall not be destroyed. Okay, so we need to note right here that this is the first reference to the Messiah as the Son of man.00:03:34
Jesus is also referred to as the Son of man all throughout the New Testament as well. In 2 Thessalonians2:8, Paul told the church at THESSALONICA he said this and the Lawless One will be revealed. Who is that lawless one? The Antichrist, the beast that I spoke about last time with the mouth, uttering great boasts. He's going to be revealed.00:04:08
Whom, Paul goes on to say, whom the Lord will consume with the breath of his mouth and destroy with the brightness of his coming. But we're going to flip back to Daniel. And Daniel goes on to say the same stone mentioned in Daniel chapter2 is the Son of man.00:04:41
The same stone who is the Son of man receives the fifth and final kingdom, which endures forever and will not be destroyed. You can go back and read that in Daniel, chapter two, verses 34 through 35. That stone is another reference to Jesus. Jesus is the Messiah, who is being referred to as the stone. The Bible goes on to tell us something more.00:05:15
So here's where I want you to really pay attention about this Son of man. I am going to be reading from the NIV version of the Bible. Luke, chapter 17, and I'm going to start reading from verse 26. And I'm going to stop at verse 37,00:07:57
Okay, so that's the word of the Lord. Now, what this is talking about is the coming of Christ. And these Scriptures speak to his second coming. And it tells us what it will be like. It's telling us about the culture, about society, what things will be happening in the world.00:13:14
Here is what was happening in the days of Noah. Genesis, chapter six and seven. Go back and read those two chapters. 1. Noah had God's message calling the people to enter into the ark. He told everybody, get ready, get ready, get ready.00:13:38
2. The problem was the people were content to keep the status quo and they didn't care about God's message. They didn't give a hoot or a holler about that. They were busy, they were doing their own thing. Everybody's having a good time and life is good, and we're not worried about a thing. 3. God brought destruction upon the world at that time with the flood.00:15:244. So why does God tell us about Sarah's heart?00:16:26
5.God pulled lot out of Sodom using two angels. Genesis chapter 19.00:16:52
6. God burned the cities of Sodom and Gomorrah. And that's also in Genesis chapter 19.00:17:25
1. The second coming, the presence of the Son of God is an event that will take place at a certain period of time. Nobody knows the day or the time, but it will take place. 2. The Bible tells unbelievers to repent and come to Christ, who is the only place of safety. 3. At Jesus second coming, he will be plainly visible to all.00:18:07
No matter how close two people may be in life, they have no guarantee of the same eternal destiny.

[00:00:00]

[00:02:55]
The prophet Daniel is unquestionably one of the most remarkable men. The book that bears his name traces his life from his teenage years through his days past the age of 80. Two general truths follow Daniel's interpretation or the work that he left us. First, we really are living in the last days. Second, all investment in earthly kingdoms are at best only temporary.
[00:04:47]
The four beast in Daniel chapter seven represents four kingdoms. There are ten horns which represent ten kingdoms or nations. Out of that, another smaller horn that Daniel describes as the Antichrist will arise. So that's our review today.
[00:10:18]
The verse says that the Ancient of Days came and judgment was passed. It describes humanity standing before God in judgment. Who is the son of man who is coming? None other than Jesus Christ himself.
