Before we go into the fourth beast we need to consider these two verses, in order to understand the significance of the little horn in.v.7
"I beheld till the thrones were cast down, and the Ancient of days did sit, whose garment was white as snow, and the hair of his head like the pure wool: his throne was like the fiery flame, and his wheels as burning fire./A fiery stream issued and came forth from before him: thousand thousands ministered unto him, and ten thousand times ten thousand stood before him: the judgment was set, and the books were opened." (7:9-10)
The Spirit introduces the Ancient of Days from the standpoint of God the Father. The back page of these two verses are found in these verses from the Book of the Revelation. Re.5:1-7 It is from the standpoint of the Son. Both are set in heaven and both are in the 'Now".
In the Book of Daniel what we discussed from Ch.7 can have the title Sinner's Progress leading to Judgment where four beasts carry history of nations forward without disruption whatsoever., "Judgment was set, and the books were opened" It is in pluperfect tense. It is how God had us foreknown and we find no mention with regards to the slain Lamb or the Salvation Plan of God.
Here in the Vision of St John the same 'Now and the Redemption from the slain Lamb give us the history of the perils of Sin. It continues with the cavalcade of four horsemen which is controlled by the Prince of Peace who sets forth to conquer. The passage quoted in the post New World we have the same Rider on the white horse defeating the sinful world.(Re.19:17)
Now let us compare with Re.5:6-7
And I beheld, and, lo, in the midst of the throne and of the four beasts, and in the midst of the elders, stood a Lamb as it had been slain, having seven horns and seven eyes, which are the seven Spirits of God sent forth into all the earth.
7And he came and took the book out of the right hand of him that sat upon the throne".
