Timelines: The Rise of 4 Super Powers.

The Four Beasts Vision. (Daniel 7)



CONTEMPORARY – These kingdoms were yet to arise in Daniel`s time. (Dan.7:17)

EACH POWERFUL – They are all powerful rulers. (Dan. 7:3)

ALL AT THE SAME TIME – These powers are all operating at the same time. (Dan. 7: 7 & 12)

 
When we look at the Federations that have great power and authority in our world today, and then look at the emblems they are well known for, we can see who each of these `beasts` represent.

1.A Lion with Eagle`s wings - Great Britain & America. Great Britain was the first great power to arise in contemporary times. America came from there and `broke off` and became independent.

2.A ferocious Bear with 3 ribs in its mouth - Russia. Russia came from the Soviet Union, which was the second great power to arise, after WW1. It devoured country after country into a great Federation.

3.A winged Leopard with four heads - The European Union. This Union began after WW2 with 4 leaders/heads of countries.

4.A terrifying beast - Islam. This great power has yet to come to its full potential.
 

Daniel saw in a vision the four winds/spirits of heaven stirring up the Great Sea, (Mediterranean). Then four great beasts arose, one at a time. The last beast trampled the first three till eventually it was destroyed by God. The other beasts were given an extension of life.​

God gives the interpretation of the dream. The four beasts are four kingdoms or Federations that come up one at a time and have power and authority at the same time. They are all in the same time-slot when God would deal with the Gentile system of government.​

`The fourth beast shall be a fourth kingdom on earth which shall be different from all other kingdoms, and shall devour the whole earth.` (Dan.7: 23)​
