Revelation's Forbidden Fruit

No global decree. The AC never politically rules the world.



 
Revelation 13:7-8:

“And he was given authority over every tribe, people, language and nation. All inhabitants of the earth will worship the beast (less those names written in the Lamb's Book of Life).
 

Daniel 7:23 (KJV)
23 Thus he said, The fourth 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 break it in pieces.

To this end, let us temporarily assume for the moment that we are actually living in the early pre-Christian period and the only prophecy we have with respect to the Kingdoms in question is Daniel’s…(I have posted both above and below the verses in direct relation to the Babylonian, Grecian and Roman Empires).

Therefore, after reading or hearing of these same Daniel prophecies we would have also most likely thought that these Empires (Babylon, Grecian and Roman) would have LITERALLY ruled the entire World as well. However, the reality is that they did NOT and history proves this. The prophecy of the King of Babylon, Nebuchadnezzar, declared that “wheresoever the children of men would dwell,” that Nebuchadnezzar would RULE (not merely influence) over them. As the map of the Babylonian Empire below illustrates, this was never the case. Thus, Nebuchadnezzar reigned ONLY within the boundaries of his Empire and as such, the statement, 'wheresoever the children of men would dwell, that Nebuchadnezzar would reign over them.' must be understand as a FIGURE of SPEECH - a linguistic synecdoche.

 
I'm thankful for your input, Corelssue, and have read the links you provided.

Here's another link affirming Revelation's comments citing that the AC will emerge from kingdoms that are currently in power in these last days (as Daniel''s interpretation was a foreshadow of things to come just as Noah's tribulation (flood) was provided as a message for end-time inhabitants to prepare for the return of our precious Lord and Savior).


Look forward to hearing your thoughts.

The four beast nations are also in the mystery Babylon statue, Babylon, long gone, Medo-Persia, long gone, Greece and finally Rome, gone but will turn. Rome is the belly of the statue, legs the east-west division and toes the break up that will reunite into the AC kingdom. the harlot is roman Catholicism.

The beasts you indicate are not in Danial.

Here are maps, etc -

 
That's strange @Bruce-Leiter, I can read it on my Android phone, as a comparison. I would try upgrading your browser. Notwithstanding that, you should see a download icon in the top right hand corner of the site (where you can download the report in a Word doc, or PDF file to your desktop). Would enjoy hearing your thoughts!

I can't find that icon.

The man of sin rules over a 10/7 nation empire situated in the Middle East. He is NOT a global dictator.

Roman Catholicism has nothing to do with any of this. The harlot originates out of Islam.
The Islamic whore of Babylon promises it's fanatical adherents a mansion in paradise with as many as 72 bedrooms and 72 virgins for filling the harlot's cup. The number of virgins they get is dependent upon the magnitude of the abomination they commit. The Islamic whore will terrorize the world into submission using some of the most horrific means available today. Islam will hurl the planet into tribulation.
 
Revelation 13:7-8:

Have you ever looked at the words ALL and EARTH in that verse? It's easy to misinterpret this passage. A global dictator will never come - the man of sin will reign over a united Middle-East.
 
I will wait until God unfolds all of it, especially Jesus' second coming, my resurrection body, and the new universe. I'll leave the other details to him.

What's this new universe nonsense?
Have you never read Revelation 21:1, @Ben There? It is the new heaven and new earth that God is going to create for believers (Jesus' bride):
Rev 21:1 Then I saw a new heaven and a new earth, for the first heaven and the first earth had passed away, and the sea was no more.
Rev 21:2 And I saw the holy city, new Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God, prepared as a bride adorned for her husband.
