THE ORIGIN STORY OF JESUS
Part 69: The Four Kingdoms |
|
God wanted to move Daniel to the top echelon of the
Babylonian government and He used Nebuchadnezzar’s dream to
orchestrate Daniel’s rise to power. It started with a dream that the
king forgot. The court magicians offered to provide an
interpretation but their gods were powerless to reveal the dream.
Not so with Daniel’s God. He revealed the dream and its meaning to
Daniel. God had elevated Nebuchadnezzar and there would be an
additional three kingdoms after his death. Babylon was the first
kingdom, Persia was the second, and the third was Greece. Many have
claimed that the fourth kingdom was Rome, but Daniel’s words reveal
this can’t be the case. What we have instead is the first reference
to the global kingdom of the Antichrist with a nod back to the way
it was during the days of Noah. Jesus is the rock that will smash
the statue and break the fourth kingdom. Nebuchadnezzar was
impressed with Daniel’s God, but the prophetic message went over his
head. |
