The GLOBAL ANTI-CHRIST... as Seen Through NEBUCHADNEZZAR'S Dream

Extending through time…

.

… extending through space, the anti-CHRIST/ anti-MESSIAH , who is about to be revealed, has been on planet earth a long time.

.

I John 4:3 And every spirit that confesseth not that JESUS CHRIST is come in the flesh is not of GOD: and this is that spirit of anti-CHRIST, whereof ye have heard that it should come; and even now already is it in the world.

.

That same anti-CHRIST has been here as long as, in as many eons as, Lucifer has been… he who initiated the Cosmic Rebellion when Rahab was smitten into pieces and began orbitting this solar system as the “asteroid belt” between Mars and jupiter.

[N.B., Ever wonder why water, albeit frozen now, is being “found” on other planets ? Ever wonder why pyramids and other UN-natural structures are being seen on Mars and Pluto and recently, Ceres, the largest asteroid in the belt ? These items fit with the Biblical description of the Cosmic Rebellion.

.

Extending through time…

.

… through space, through spatial dimensions, that awful image Nebuchadnezzar saw … and was willing to slay the wisest men over  … is NOT LIMITED to the ancient history pages of the Babylon, Persian, Greek, and Roman empires.

.

A Brief Look at Daniel’s Historic Interpretation…

.

Very accurately, the Prophet Daniel, Beloved of GOD, revealed and interpreted Nebuchadnezzar’s dream to him about the 4 world powers — one was and 3 were coming — in chapter 2 of the book of Daniel.

.

This IMAGE which Nebuchadnezzar “saw” in a dream represented 4 kingdoms, as Daniel said.  In Ancient History , Daniel’s interpretation to Nebuchadnezzar was accurate. 

.

His interpretation was limited, however, to the powerful empires which concerned Israel, having to do specifically with the coming of The LORD JESUS CHRIST, The Eternal WORD+ Incarnate: Babylon, Persia, Greece, and the Roman Empire. 

.

• Babylon was the powerful Middle Eastern empire of the Captivity when the southern Kingdom of Judah forsook the Covenant.

.

• Persia, under Cyrus, conquered the weakened Babylonian Empire and became a ruling Mid-East empire. It allowed Jews to return to Jerusalem from captivity and the eventual rebuilding of the Temple… the basic Temple in which Our LORD walked.   

.

• Greece, conquering Persia, replaced Aramaic as the dominant world language of learning and commerce.

.

• The Roman Empire, absorbing Greece, conquered the Mediterranean Sea lands, built roads, and ruled with its fist of iron over the Holy Land, being the civic instrument of cruelty which crucified Our LORD.

.

Thus, the 4 historical empires interpreted by Daniel to Nebuchadnezzar, king of Babylon, were true and accurate for the era of time concerning Israel and the Coming of Our LORD Incarnate.   

.

Daniel’s Silence on the Latter Day Verses…

.

However, Daniel’s interpretation in chapter 2 was silent about 5 important verses.

.

He did NOT reveal the interpretation concerning the “Latter Day” events  mentioned in verses 34, 35, 43, 44, and 45, even though Nebuchadnezzar saw these events clearly in his dream.

.

Here are those 5 verses of the Latter Day Events in Daniel chapter 2:

.

• 2:34 Thou sawest till that a STONE was cut out without hands, which smote the image upon his feet that were of iron and clay, and brake them to pieces.

.

• 2:35 Then was the iron, the clay, the brass, the silver, and the gold, broken to pieces together, and became like the chaff of the summer threshing floors; and the wind ( Heb “RUACH” = spirit ) carried them away, that no place was found for them: and the STONE that smote the image became a Great Mountain, and filled the whole earth.

.

• 2:43 And whereas thou sawest iron mixed with miry clay, they shall mingle themselves with the seed of men: but they shall not cleave one to another, even as iron is not mixed with clay.

.

• 2:44 And in the days of these kings shall the GOD of Heaven set up a Kingdom, which shall never be destroyed: and the Kingdom shall not be left to other people, but IT shall break in pieces and consume all these kingdoms, and IT shall stand for ever.

.

• 2:45 Forasmuch as thou sawest that the STONE was cut out of the mountain without hands, and that IT brake in pieces the iron, the brass, the clay, the silver, and the gold; the great GOD hath made known to the king what shall come to pass hereafter: and the dream is certain, and the interpretation thereof sure.

.

The EVER-LASTING Kingdom in Other Prophetic Scriptures…

.

Now, looking ahead to Daniel , Chapter  7, verses, we see again that same Everlasting Kingdom which fills the whole earth.

.

• 7:13 I saw in the night visions, and, behold, one like the SON+ of Man came with the clouds of heaven, and came to the ANCIENT of DAYS and they brought HIM+ near before HIM.

.

• 7:14 And there was given HIM+ dominion, and glory, and a kingdom, that all people, nations, and languages, should serve HIM+: HIS+ dominion is an everlasting dominion, which shall not pass away, and HIS+ kingdom that which shall not be destroyed.

.

And looking far, far ahead in Revelation, chapter 11, is yet another picture of this same Everlasting Kingdom established by Our LORD and set up upon this earth.

.

• 11:15   And the seventh angel sounded; and there were great voices in Heaven, saying, The kingdoms of this world are become the kingdoms of our LORD, and of HIS CHRIST; and HE+ shall reign for ever and ever.

.

The Dream-IMAGE Unifies into a

ONE-WORLD Evil EMPIRE…

.

In Nebuchadnezzar’s dream-image, we can actually re-configure the image’s body parts to see 7 stout components revealed in verses 32-33, which fulfills the Latter Days vision:

 .

• head = fine gold

• breast = silver

• arms = silver

• belly = brass

• thighs = brass

• legs = iron

• feet = part iron, part clay

.

These 7 components now make up one UNIFIED image… a picture of the entire world, a global UNIT.   

.

The dream-image is diversified as far as appearance, specific weight, and function … but it is NO LONGER DIVIDED into 4 different Kingdoms.

.

“Out of many, one…”

that is, e pluribus unum.

.

The 7 Continents in REVELATION 17…

.

In these Latter Days, Nebuchadnezzar’s dream-IMAGE has to do with 7 components or, if you will, the 7 continents across the globe instead of individual empires or kingdoms…. in accordance with Revelation 17 Scriptures.

.

• 17:1 And there came one of the seven angels which had the seven vials, and talked with me, saying unto me, Come hither; I will shew unto thee the judgment of the great whore that sitteth upon many waters:

.

• 17:2 With whom the kings of the earth have committed fornication, and the inhabitants of the earth   have been made drunk with the wine of her fornication.

.

• 17:3 So he carried me away in the spirit into the wilderness: and I saw a woman sit upon a scarlet colored beast, full of names of blasphemy, having seven heads and ten horns.

.

• 17:9 And here is the mind which hath wisdom. The seven heads are seven mountains, on which the woman sitteth.

.

• 17:15 And he saith unto me, The waters which thou sawest, where the whore sitteth, are peoples, and multitudes, and nations, and tongues.

.

Could this be …

a Valid Interpretation

of those 5 un-interpreted Verses

in Daniel 2 ?

.

Here is an interesting clue: the numbers, 7 and 10 , found in Revelation during the latter days  , are also coupled together in Daniel’s account of Nebuchadnezzar’s dream-image.

.

The 7 continents , the 7 components of the dream-IMAGE,  and the 10 toes, which are coupled together in the Latter Day event, indicate that the STONE+ will be dealing with the ENTIRE, UNIFIED IMAGE that Nebuchadnezzar saw in his dream.  

.

Revelation 17 …

(Note the 7 and 10 numbers

throughout these verses. )

.

• 17:10 And there are seven kings: five are fallen, and one is, and the other is not yet come; and when he cometh, he must continue a short space.

.

• 17:11 And the beast that was, and is not, even he is the eighth, and is of the seven, and goeth into perdition.

.

• 17:12 And the ten horns which thou sawest are ten kings, which have received no kingdom as yet; but receive power as kings one hour with the beast.

.

• 17:13 These have ONE MIND and shall give their power and strength unto the beast.

 

.

This anti-CHRIST image is still existing and working its evil across the globe.

.

The same evils, the same voice screaming out in rage things against CHRIST, the same hatred of the Followers of CHRIST JESUS — and GOD’S ancient people, the Jews, who brought forth the MESSIAH+, the SEED+ of Abraham — can be seen in every country, in every continent.

.

Yes… even in Antarctica.

.
( Research Admiral Byrd for strange Anti-CHRIST workings in Antarctica in 1947.)   
.

Scriptural prophecy deals specifically with those nations and peoples who come AGAINST Israel. 

.

This GLOBAL prophecy discerned from Nebuchadnezzar’s dream-image does the same.  Only at this point in the history of the Adamic race, “Israel”  is the “Israel of GOD”  … which includes the WHOLE HOUSE of ISRAEL, both the Jews and the Followers of JESUS , the grafted-in.

.

Back to the “10”…

.

Even now, those heretofore unseen and unknown “10 kings” of Revelation 17 are working to mingle the seed of the Adamic race with STRANGE SEED, as in Genesis 6.

.

Nebuchadnezzar’s dream-image has mixed miry clay and iron together in its feet and 10 toes. What is “clay” but the sons of Adam ?   

.

“They,” Scripture says,  “ shall mingle themselves with the seed of men, but they shall not cleave one to another.” 

.

At no time in history, has this dream-IMAGE been destroyed.  It has existed behind the scenes, operating its woes since mankind walked on planet earth.  It is the image of the anti-CHRIST .

.

When IT IS FINISHED, when time shall be no more, that STONE+ will hurl down from ITS+ Heavenly Mountain and there will be no escaping IT+.

.

 JESUS told us all about

this  STONE’S activities

in Matthew 21: 

.

• 21:42 JESUS saith unto them, Did ye never read in the Scriptures, The STONE+ which the builders rejected, the SAME+ is become the HEAD+ of the corner: this is the LORD’S doing, and it is marvelous in our eyes?

.

• 21:43 Therefore say I+ unto you, The Kingdom of GOD shall be taken from you, and given to a nation bringing forth the fruits thereof.

.

 

• 21:44 And whosoever shall fall on this STONE+ shall be broken: but on whomsoever IT+ shall fall, IT+ will grind him to powder.

.

Same STONE+

.

same GOD

.

same battle

.

same VICTOR+ 

.

These shall make war with the LAMB+,

and the LAMB+ shall overcome them:

for HE+ is LORD+ of lords,

and KING+ of kings:

and they that are with HIM+

are called, and chosen, and faithful.

Revelation 17:14

Arise, Great High Priest, Eternal WORD+,  from FATHER’S Right Hand and come forth in Flaming Fire to TAKE VENGEANCE, to lock away the lying adversary and the lying minions that serve him into the abyss for the Thousand years, and reign, O Mighty One+ on the earth with a Rod of Iron, and DESTROY the Gross Darkness that covers the earth,

SHIELD the JOYOUS

Understanding “shield the joyous” from the Book of JOB…

Keep Watch, dear LORD, with those

who Work, or Watch , or Weep this night,

and give your angels charge over those who sleep.

Tend the sick, LORD CHRIST; give rest to the Weary

bless the dying, soothe the suffering, pity the afflicted,

Shield the Joyous

and all for Your love’s sake.

( Book of Common Prayer )

JOB.

There was a man in the land of Uz, whose name was Job; and that man was perfect and upright, and one that feared God, and eschewed evil. .

1:2 And there were born unto him seven sons and three daughters. 1:3 His substance also was … and a very great household; so that this man was the greatest of all the men of the east. 1:4 And his sons …  feasted … and called for their three sisters to eat and to drink with them.

1:5 And it was so, when the days of their feasting were gone about, that Job sent and sanctified them, and rose up early in the morning, and offered burnt offerings according to the number of them all: for Job said,

It may be that my sons have sinned, and CURSED GOD   in their hearts. Thus did Job  continually.

1:6 Now there was a day when the sons of GOD came to present themselves before the LORD, and Satan came also among them. 1:7 And the LORD said unto the satan, Whence comest thou? Then the satan answered the LORD, and said, From going to and fro in the earth, and from walking up and down in it.

1:8 And the LORD said unto the satan, Hast thou considered my servant Job, that there is none like him in the earth, a perfect and an upright man, one that feareth GOD, and eschews evil?

1:9 Then the satan answered the LORD, and said, Doth Job fear GOD for nought?

.1:10 Hast not THOU made an hedge about him, and about his house, and about all that he hath on every side? THOU hast blessed the work of his hands, and his substance is increased in the land.

1:11 But put forth thine hand now, and touch all that he hath, and he will CURSE THEE to Thy Face.

1:12 And the LORD said unto the satan, Behold, all that he hath is in thy power; only upon himself put not forth thine hand. So the satan went forth from the presence of the LORD.

+  +  +

The Accuser of GOD and Job…

The accuser begins by accusing the LORD !

The satan says the only reason Job fears and worships GOD is because GOD protects him, his household, and his many possessions.

In other words, the satan accuses The LORD of bribing Job to worship HIM.

If GOD allows the satan to hurt JOB’S family, friends, possessions, and great reputation ( the satan boldly asserts ), then JOB would no longer worship GOD , the giver of all these blessings. The accuser said that Job would instead cease to worship GOD and “CURSE” HIM to His Face.

Next, the accuser moves from GOD to Job.  The accuser implies that Job only woships GOD due to his great and bountiful blessings… not because JOB loves GOD… not because Job obeys GOD… not because Job honors GOD for being WHO HE is .

+  +  +

A Very Big Textual Problem…

 After this, we encounter a BIG problem in the verses, twice written. This problem is found with the translation of the word for “CURSE.”

There are 10 Hebrew words used throughout the Old Covenant for either “a curse” ( noun )  — or else a form similar to one of the nouns — made into a verb ” to curse.”  Ten such Hebrew words are scattered throughout the Old Covenant.

The four times “CURSE ” is used in Job, however, it does NOT involve ANY of those 10 Hebrew words … and does not even remotely resemble any one of them .

.The Job verses with “curse” in them include: Job 1:5, 1:11 ( both quoted above,) and verses 2:5 and 2:9.

An Easy Bit of Hebrew…   

All four Job verses have the familiar Hebrew word  “BARAK” (or its form) in them… which means “BLESS”  as in  …

 Baruch Ha Shem ADONAI +  

Blessed (be) the Name of The LORD. 

BARAK , in either noun form or verb, is listed in approximately 3 and 1/2 columns  of reference verses in Young’s Analytical Concordance to the Bible … roughly 350 verses in the Old Covenant … and it always has to do with BLESSING. 

BARAK, in these four Job verses ,

is translated as CURSE.

  Why ? To unfathom the reason for this, we will have to look at the usage of BARAK as it was originally intended.

The origin or root of BARAK is “to kneel.”  One would customarily kneel to receive a patristic blessing.  

Customarily, a blessing would also be pronounced when one was departing from a visit to someone’s house or tent. Thus, it was used when SENDING SOMEONE AWAY from your presence or on a journey. It was a DISMISSAL, if you will.

Thus, DISMISSAL — a sending away — is the more accurate translation into English of the Hebrew BARAK, which fits the context of those 4 verses in JOB.  [ This also is true of the Greek word used in those Job verses in the LXX , a “eulogy.”]

+  +  +

Why is the correct concept of “DISMISSAL” So Important in these Job Verses ?

 Serious Christians who run into HARD  TIMES would NOT “curse” GOD.  That does not seem to be the danger addressed by Job.

1:5 And it was so, when the days of their feasting were gone about, that Job sent and sanctified them, and rose up early in the morning, and offered burnt offerings according to the number of them all: for Job said, It may be that my sons have sinned, and CURSED GOD   in their hearts. Thus did Job  continually.

 +  +  +

Conscientious Job most likely raised his sons and daughters to fear The LORD. But, after days of feasting and merry-making at the family get-togethers,

…Job was concerned that GOD ( for all intents and purposes ) would be forgotten by his sons and daughters.

.

For, when do we THINK on JESUS most intensely … during our times of ease and merry-making… or during our times of hurt and pain, stress and distress ? 

A Christian facing death thinks more constantly about The LORD than one who is healthy, active, and going about his daily temporal duties. 

When are we MOST in danger ? It is when we forget GOD, when we “set” JESUS on the back shelf so we can “play” or relax. 

Our shield is down.

The Ancient, Pre-Nicene Christians refused to attend the games and the theaters and the baths for this very reason. They considered it DANGEROUS , spiritually dangerous, to be in the devil’s playing field. Hence, the admonition for sobriety.

Be sober, as the Apostle Peter tells us:

1 Peter 5:8

Be sober, be vigilant;

because your adversary the devil,

as a roaring lion, walketh about,

seeking whom he may devour:

.

When do we forget GOD ?  It is when things are going well, relatively speaking. When we are happy, relaxed, and contented. That is when we do not monitor ourselves as closely and joking and foolish jesting bubble up to the surface.  That is when we are not on guard against the evil one and his wiles.

We “set” JESUS aside when we are feeling good and want to play. We simply do not want to be bothered with sobriety and seriousness of heart. 

We IGNORE our LORD…  and the nudgings of the HOLY SPIRIT … when we are merry-making.

In all 4 verses of Job where CURSE is found, the concept really ought to be “dismissing GOD from our thoughts.”  We want to go our separate way, just for a bit perhaps, but we want to do our own thing, free from the constraints of holiness.

THAT is the danger addressed in those four verses. 

Furthermore, that tendency  “to dismiss GOD” from our doings is dangerous in our own lives. This is why we are to be a separate people from the culture that we live in and the reason we cultivate our LORD’S value system at all times.

That danger  — to “dismiss” GOD — from our thinking is GREATEST when things are going well.  

Keep watch, dear LORD,

with those who work, or watch, or weep this night,

and give your angels charge over those who sleep.

Tend the sick, LORD CHRIST; give rest to the weary,

bless the dying, soothe the suffering, pity the afflicted,

SHIELD THE JOYOUS;

and all for your love’s sake.

Amen.
