God blessed and sanctified the Sabbath Gen. 2:1-3 and kept the Sabbath after the completion of creation. No other day in the Bible was blessed or sanctified by God. You will not find it through out the Bible. The Bible says in Daniel 7:25, man will think to change time and laws. Read it in its entirety. Days were not named in the Bible, they were numbered 1st day, 2nd day, 3rd day so forth and so on . Days of the week are names of pagan gods, look up how the days of the week names originated. Also Jesus rested in the tomb on the Sabbath and rose the first day of the week. Luke 24:1Hebrews 4:1-8 speaks of entering into a rest, a rest which is the seventh-day and He never changed. Man has made Sunday the day of rest, because Jesus rose the first day of the week which they call it resurrection Sunday. This isn 't justified by the Word of God.
Sharon, the best I can tell there is no scripture to back up a "secret rapture. " 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. Daniel 7:25 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. My question is how does this happen if the people of God is not here?
In reference to Daniel 7 it is the same dream as Nebuchadnezzar had.Daniel had the religious side Nebuchadnezzar was political.First the lion is Babylon the head of gold with a lion body was their symbol.The bear was the medo and Persia empire and the leopard is Greece the four wings represent the four kingdom 's that came after the death of Alexander the great.The fourth beast was Rome the legs of iron of Nebuchadnezzar dream and Daniel beast that is diverse Rome took on all the character of each nation before it.the ten horns are kings or kingdoms that Rome divided into.the little horn is papel Rome which plucked up the three little horns they were the Heruli,Vandals,Ostrogoths Daniel chapter7 n 8
I had a dream. It was bizarre. I woke up singing " and the little horn was one , and the little horn was one " over and over again. I was so moved by my dream that I looked it up on the internet. I found that the words were in the Bible. I was so overcome by what I read that I started researching "The Little Horn " in the book of Daniel. The fact that it appeared in a dream to Daniel was extremely disturbing.
The verse is referring to the change of God 's law, especially the Law that deals with time and that is the 4th commandment. Sadly the majority doesn 't want to see this
That is because it will be Islam. They are the ones who will change everything to fit their Sharia laws. The Vatican may be the leader but it will be under control of Islam.
Jay 's comment sounds intriguing. Unfortunately, taken in context, the bear is one of four kingdoms. It occurs between the Lion which was Babylon and the Leopard, which was Greece. That kingdom was Media Persia as Wesley 's Notes states and is further backed up by other Daniel visions. One should not try to force current events to fit Bible Prophesy.
A beast, in the Bible, represents a country. In this case we see a bear. Russia is commonly known as the bear in our world today. Note it raises on its side. The Ukraine, is to the side of Russia. It is also, according to Wikipedia, broken down into 3 main administrative divisions. The three ribs represent the Ukraine as a side country with three divisions that are being slowly devoured by the bear Russia .
Fourth beast is roman empire and ten horns are kings of Europe which rose after roman empire in 476 ad. Now the little horn which subdue three horns is power of papacy who killed the saints of most high changing the law of God times .All churches worship this seat as their holy father on earth.
Herman 's is the most accurate but none are right. No one seems to have the right idea and what is really happening. No one has the fourth beast right and quite a few have them all wrong. Here is a hint, the fourth beast is more powerful than all the rest, that is the kingdom that the anti christ will be in control of. Just because it is not recognized as a powerful kingdom yet it will at the proper time. This kingdom is quite powerful already and everything is set. It will not have to get extremely powerful because the others are going to lose their power. Also the third beast is China not Germany.
You were perceptive enough to see that the 4th Beast was killed BEFORE the 2nd or 3rd Beast... but you need to FIRST understand "what " or "who " the Beasts Kingdoms represent before ASSUMING the "season and time " equates to the "1000 yrs "... because it does not. When you understand what Daniel 's Beasts represent, then all related passages begin to harmonize.
Times feast days shabbat Law Torah aka Ten commandments This is a prophetic vision predicting how constatine and the councile of nicea would replace jewish holy days with paganized christian holidays and overide the ten commandments
Ten horns may be the rise of a new Roman Empire or Ten Kings. The little horn is the Antichrist.
The first Beast is Britain and the Wings of that Beast which break away is the birth of the United States, the second Beast is Russia the Bear, The third Beast is Germany. These are the current Nations today. The coming of the Lord is soon and the Antichrist will soon arise and decieive many. Much will happen in a short time now. Be ready. Watch for the two witnesses who will reveal both present, past and future with great power and testimony and then slain, but will rise again to be with the Father after their witness of Christ which is why the Antichrist will kill them and leave their bodies in the streets. Because of Satellite everyone will be able to see this happen in real time. Also beware of the mark of the beast where you will not be able to buy or sale without the mark. This will also be your sign of service.
Daniel seven reveals four beasts, the first is Babylon, Medes and Persians, Grecian Empire and the dragon kingdom, amazingling it does not speak of the Roman Empire although it was the next in the chronological order but it skips to the dragon kingdom and is also identical to Daniel 2 in Nebuchadnezzar's dream, I know all commentaries refer to the Roman Empire as the fourth beast due to the chronological order of empires that rules the world but the dream and Daniel's vision do not refer to this Roman Empire instead it goes direct into the Dragon Kingdom and this is why all commentaries have mis-interpreted the meaning of the dragon kingdom as it is futuristic, therefore we cannot know from history about the little horn since he arises from one of the four horns of the four kingdoms that had split Alexander's kingdom of the leopard. One thing we are sure of is that all those nations mentioned in prophecy concerning the end times and those battles are all Muslim today from Turkey, Iran, Iraq, Egypt and North Africa as this appears to be a battle between Islamic nations and the Lord Jesus Christ in the valley of decision or Armageddon in the final end.
In bible prophecy as well as now nations are represented by animals.In chapter 2 history is laid out very clearly.The terrible beast is the fourth kingdom.The 10 horns are 10 kingdoms that arose out of that 4th empire.
The term God is a title not a name. As such can and does apply to the Father( 2 Peter 1:17),The Son ( John 5:16-18,23;Philip 2:6 "who being [Grk. remaining] in the form of God"; Heb. 1:8,10; Ps.102:25; Jn.20:28; 1Jn. 5:20; Exod. 3:14; Jn. 8:24. 58; Is. 44:6; Rev. 1:17-18; 2:8; Is. 6:1-10; Jn. 12:39-41), and of the Holy Spirit ( Acts 5:3-4; 2 Cor. 3:17) Also the word "serve" in Dan. 7:14 is only used 10 times in the bible, each referring to religious service or worship of Jesus.
Gladys, u could be right. From wikipedia on Obama symbol you find - "The logo was designed by Chicago-based Sender LLC (a brand development and design company) on assignment from Chicago-based mo/de (a motion design studio). The latter had been brought on board early on by David Axelrod, Obama�s chief campaign strategist, although it had never done a political identity before. Creative director Sol Sender, now a partner at VSA Partners and founding director of the IBM Design Lab, led the design team of three which included Amanda Gentry and Andy Keene. Project managers at mo/de were Colin Carter and Steve Juras.[1]
"We were looking at the �o� of his name and had the idea of a rising sun and a new day,� according to Sender. �The sun rising over the horizon evoked a new sense of hope."[2] "The design expression was so constrained and so bland for so many years in politics," Sender says. "I think we had a fresh approach because we�d never worked on a campaign before� � and, of course, the power of the logo had a lot to do with �the power of the candidate�s message.""
Terry, I believe the 1st Resurrection has already occurred. Matt 27:52-53 "and the graves were opened;; and many bodies of the saints who had fallen asleep were raised; and coming out of the graves after His resurrection, they went into the holy city and appeared to many."
I believe that God the Father is portrayed as the ancient of days;the wise and sage judge.The Son of man is humanity's representative in the heavenly courts
The beasts are powers both political and religious superpowers of the world.they turn out to be the remnant's main enemy

Yes, we all agree that the Son of Man is Jesus Christ. For the Ancient of Days, i am not fully convinced that it is God Himself, mainly because,, 'no human being have never seen God, the Father' but they only hear His Voice, or see his presence like the flame of fire that led the Israelites during the night in their journey to Canaan, etc. What we can say we know is the image of God as indicated by Genesis 1 vs 26 that God created man out of their image.. In my opinion I can link this Ancient of Days to the Comforter mentioned in John 14 vs 16. The Ancient of Days is someone with great authority. So I am sure that the Comforter is the Holy Spirit but would come in person.
The Jehovah Wittness use the prophecy teaching of the 144000, but they did not originate it. The 144000 is God's prophecy, it is scriptural but unfortunately since people perceive it as a Jehovah Witness doctrine, no one really preaches on it and its interpretation.
