Utilizing the consistent pattern of prophetic parallels, long ago the = LORD revealed the four kingdoms counting down to the arrival of JESUS = CHRIST, which were allegorized in Nebuchadnezzar=92s dream of the great = statue composed of a golden head, silver arms, brass belly, and iron = legs, were not the same kingdoms as those described as the lion, bear, = leopard, and diverse fourth beast. Unfortunately, there are heavily = vested interests which put forth the idea the head of gold =96 the first = of four kingdoms in Daniel 2, which is clearly identified as Babylon in = the text (Daniel 2:38) =96 is the same as the lion kingdom in Daniel 7, = the first of four kingdoms in Daniel 7, which is not identified in the = text: =93Behold, the four winds of the heaven strove upon the great sea. And = four great beasts came up from the sea, diverse one from another. The = first was like a lion, and had eagle=92s wings: I beheld till the wings = thereof were plucked, and it was lifted up from the earth=85=94 (Daniel = 7:2-4). Whenever a believer examines these illustrative sequences featuring the = two quartets of kingdoms in Daniel 2 (the four part statue dream), and = Daniel 7 (the four part beast vision), they universally focus on the = components themselves (the gold, silver, brass, and iron =96 as well as = the lion, bear, leopard), and breeze past the setting. Thus, most miss = the fact that the first set of four kingdoms =96 symbolically pictured = as the statue -- is plainly constructed on the earth, whereas the beast = kingdoms =93came up from the sea=94 (Daniel 7:2). Further, almost everyone fails to see the significance of how it is =93the= four winds of heaven=94 which stir up the sea =96 the setting of the = beast kingdoms. Revealingly, the book of Daniel is set in the Babylonian era, the same = kingdom in power during the writings of the prophet Ezekiel, whose book = was divinely engineered to immediately precede Daniel=92s epic work. In = the second half of Ezekiel=92s prophecy, towards the end of a lengthy = narrative describing how the LORD will save the =93lost sheep=94 of the = house of Israel (Ezekiel 34:11) by making an =93everlasting covenant=94 = with them, through the prophet, God tells Israel that this life will be = associated with =93the four winds=94 =96 precisely the same metaphor = used by Daniel. These =93four winds=94 occur at the conclusion of the hugely important = prophecy of the =93dry bones,=94 which are clustered together in a deep = valley, and the text clearly states these ancient bones represent the = whole house of Israel. In this epic prophecy, we learn the LORD promises = to re-gather the dry bones, which were scattered during the Babylonian = exile, and to subsequently breathe life into them, under the leadership = of a messianic figure associated with the house of David: =93These bones are the whole house of Israel: behold, they say, Our = bones are dried, and our hope is lost=85Therefore prophesy and say unto = them, Thus saith the Lord God: Behold, O my people, I will open your = graves, and cause you to come up out of your graves=85Then [the LORD] = said unto me, Prophesy unto the wind, prophesy, son of man, and say to = the wind, Thus saith the Lord God; Come from the four winds, O breath, = and breathe upon these slain, that they may live=94 (Ezekiel 37:11, 12, = 9). Having proven a thousand times over the Word of God is divinely = inspired, and subtle shades of detail are embedded throughout, we = recognize the Hebrew word for wind is also rendered Spirit =96 plainly = indicating the Spirit of the LORD is that which raised Israel from their = collective =93graves=94 =96 an epic event which occurs when people are = born again to new life in the Spirit of the LORD. In fact, the allusion to the spiritually =93dead,=94 who received not = Jesus Christ, was applied to the Pharisees, as the LORD described them = as graves: =93Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! For ye are as graves = which appear not, and the men that walk over them are not aware of them=94= (Luke 11:44). Conversely, those who received Jesus have been given new life, as = believers were ransomed from the grave: =93Therefore we are buried with him by baptism unto death: that like as = Christ was raised up from the dead by the glory of the Father, even so = we also should walk in newness of life=94 (Romans 6:4). Further, in recognizing that God promised in the Old Testament prophet = Ezekiel=92s writing to bring the =93four winds of heaven,=94 and breathe = new life into Israel, The Apostle Paul conclusively stated this occurred = in his time: =93Has God cast away His people? God forbid=85.for I also am an = Israelite=85[proving that] at this present time also there is a remnant = according to the election of grace=94 (Romans 11:1, 5). Unfortunately, the same false prophets who claim the beast empire is the = fictional =93revived Roman Empire,=94 also tell us the =93dry bones=94 = prophecy was not fulfilled in the generation of Jesus Christ, but will = soon be fulfilled as God has supposedly gathered =93Israel=94 back into = the Middle East. They also tell us the flesh and blood Jews are still = the =93chosen people,=94 and they are gathered as unbelieving =93dry = bones,=94 awaiting the outpouring of the Spirit that God will send from = the =93four winds=94 when, in fact, this has already occurred. Shortly before His ascension, Jesus told the disciples, who were = comprised of the =93lost sheep=94 of the house of Israel, to remain in = Jerusalem to await the fulfillment of the Father=92s promise: =93And there are also many other things which Jesus did=85and, being = assembled together with them, commanded them that they should not depart = from Jerusalem, but wait for the promise of the father=85=94 (John = 21:25, Acts 1:4). That promise, the pouring out of the Spirit of the LORD under the = similitude of the =93four winds of heaven=94 which would indwell the = =93dry bones=94 of Israel, was fulfilled at Pentecost: =93And suddenly there came a sound from heaven as of a rushing mighty = wind, and it filled all the house where they were sitting. And they were = all filled with the Holy Ghost=85.=94 (Acts 2:2, 4). Thus, in Daniel=92s epic prophetic panorama, those who insist the lion, = bear, leopard, and diverse fourth beast are simply a secondary view of = the four ancient kingdoms of Babylon, Persia, Greece, and Rome, have = missed the allusion to the Spirit of the Lord, imaged as the =93four = winds,=94 which arrives before the beast empires emerge. This is yet another indicator the latter four kingdoms were predicted to = manifest themselves in the Christian era. As we have repeatedly shown, = the lion relates to the British Commonwealth, a very significant kingdom = which was profoundly impacted by the Spirit of the LORD, found in the = Gospel of Jesus Christ. The colonial era which the lion also presages, = was personified by the shift away from royalty and dominion of the = nobles, as the era of populism, and increased power to the people was = signified by the revolutions which subsequently occurred. =93The first was like a lion, and had eagle=92s wings: I beheld until = the wings thereof were plucked, and it was lifted up from the earth=85.=94= (Daniel 7:4). As the bear kingdom emerged, we see a colourful image of the Russian = people, who were intensely impacted by the Gospel, even as the godless = communists moved in to =93devour much flesh=94 (Daniel 7:5). The backlash to the Soviet collectivism personified by Russia was the = Third Reich of Germany, yet another perversion of the Gospel mingled = with man=92s wicked ambitions. As the industrial might of Germany was = defeated by the four generals leading the allies of America, England, = France, and Russia, we see the =93four heads=94 (Daniel 7:6) attached to = the leopard. Ultimately, the fourth of four sequential beasts, which was = diverse from its three predecessors, was to assimilate the various = features of the lion, bear, and leopard, until it was transformed into a = much larger beast, which incorporates the characteristics of the feudal = royals, socialist collectivism, and industrial fascism which = characterized each of the previous three: =93I saw a beast rise up out of the sea=85And the beast which I saw was = like unto a leopard, and his feet were as the feet of a bear, and his = mouth as the mouth of a lion: and the dragon gave him his power, and his = seat, and great authority=94 (Revelation 13:1, 2). It can only be America, the final Christian era power, an apostate = kingdom which was profoundly affected by =93the four winds of heaven=94 = (Daniel 7:2). -=96 JL Next: The Precision of the Parallels = __________________________________________________________________________= _____________________________________________________________________ Dear Christian Friend, This prophecy article was sent to you by one of our volunteers =96 a = person who believes the LORD is doing a very special work at the = ministry which produces this writing. People need to receive this = information, but the resistance is fierce in these end times. This letter is but a part of a ministry so controversial that if we put = the ministry name on it, the Internet powers block It! A lot of people = are trying to stop us from what we=92re doing in Bible Prophecy, so if = you=92d like to read more along the lines of the present writing, we = would love to send you this next installment in the future -- but we = need to hear from you, as there are far too many people out there to = continually send it on an unsolicited basis. To get the next installment of this prophecy letter (it=92s all free), = just hit reply and put the word YES! in the subject line, and the person = who forwarded this email to you will arrange for us to send you links on = prophecy and predictions of things you can expect to see in the near = future.

If that=92s the case, just reply with the word REMOVE in = the subject line (that part is important as our software looks for that = word), and we will cheerfully delete your name from our database.
