God`s Word Revealing the Global Government: (2) The Great Image.

THE GREAT IMAGE.

God revealed to the King of Babylon a vision of a Great Image, a man standing in the Middle East. He wondered what it could mean. None of the King`s counsellors could reveal the mystery so the King called for Daniel. After seeking God for the interpretation Daniel told the King that there would be five Gentile World Rulers throughout history

Then Daniel explained that the whole Gentile system of Government would be done away with and God would establish His own kingdom rulership. God would set up a kingdom that shall never be destroyed.



Babylon - `You (King of Babylon) are this head of Gold.` (Dan. 2: 38)

Medes & Persians - `Darius the Mede received the kingdom,`(Dan. 5: 31)

Greece - `the male goat is the kingdom of Greece.`(Dan. 8: 21)

Rome - `a decree went out from Caesar Augustus (Rome) that the whole world should be registered.` (Luke 2: 1)

Divided Kingdom - Then the Assyrian (Islam) shall fall by a sword not of man.`(Isa. 31: 8)

THE GREAT IMAGE.

The greatest emphasis and the most description was on the feet and toes of the image. This is the fifth power that was predicted to hold world domination in the time-slot when God terminates the world-systems. (The stone destroying the Great Image.)

Daniel was specifically directed to minutely focus on the feet and toes of the gigantic figure and disregard the intervening two thousand years.


The whole image was standing on the sands of Babylon in the Middle East before the King of Babylon. From history we know that from the time of the demise of the Roman Empire, the Middle East has been the focal political and religious centre of the Moslem world.

God`s prophetic calendar has been programmed for centuries. The Middle East has returned to the centre of the international stage in the precise time-slot predicted.



So has God given us any details as to how this Federation will arise, and what of the other great nations of the world, where do they fit in?
