Coincidence or Biblical Prophecy?

If this is response to my post #12, Daniel gives the prophecy of this beast in Daniel 7:1-8. It is a very involved study beginning with Genesis and ending in Revelation including much prophecy and history. If you ever read Chapter 13 in the book I wrote on Rev, found in the sub forum under Revelation, then you ca see how deep a study it is, but not an impossible study.

There have been many statues of this beast with the first one that sat outside the Babylonian Palace during the reign of the Babylonian Empire who persecuted God's people. All four Empires since that time have always followed suit in persecuting God's own by making many martyr's for their faith in God and even now whose faith is in Christ Jesus. This last revived Empire will promise peace and safety (IE: post #12) to all who will bow down and worship this beast taking it's mark.

This is the significance of this statue to draw people away from God through the lies and deceit of Satan working through an evil government, (NWO).
Ok we may be on the same page.

I just immediately rejected the statue, and went to the symbolism that is in us as an opposition to the statue. I know the worlds idea is to take the kingdom by force.

There is no victory in physical battle to secure spiritual peace. The beasts in us can be tamed. Our battle moves to principalities and powers in high places. And the presence of Jesus in us.

I thought I was being rejected when the post said what does this have to do with the OP. I am more interested in the solution than the cause. And that statement can look like an attack from me. I know my fallen nature. So I asked do I look like the UN statue in attack mode?

The video said UN statue was bad
Who Me rejected the statue
I rejected the statue by switching to the solution.

I know my reasoning is upside down to some. My wife never lets me forget. LOL

Us country folk get confused pretty easy at times :lol

The statue is just another symbol of a false NWO in which the UN is a part of that will promise peace and safety during the time of God's great wrath that had it's beginnings with the Babylonian Empire. 1 Thessalonians 5:1-11.
 
I remember a cartoon of a general standing at a podium. His statement was: ( I want peace - even if I have to go to war to get it).

Resistance is futile.
Really?
Resist the devil and he will flee from you.

Two approaches?
The violent take the kingdom by force.
Or
We are more than conquerors. We were given peace by the shed blood of Jesus.

Feel free to supply scriptures.

You are right Brother. And I have a scripture for you too.

Matthew 16:18
18 And I say also unto thee, That thou art Peter, and upon this rock I will build my church; and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it.../

Now when I first read this scripture it seemed to be saying that when the enemy attacks us then all of them and whatever might that they may have...will not prevail. Because we have the defense of the Almighty God...!!

But! meditate a few moments on that passage. That's not what it means! It clearly says, the gates of Hell and gates, my friend, are defensive in nature. This verse puts the church (we know who the church is!) at the gates of Hell...so the church attacks Hell itself at some point?! And prevails, Brother!

Sure sounds like it.
 
I tend to agree with a more peaceful approach to the gospel of peace. Ripping apart the enemy was an Old Testament action. But now?
eddif

Well, now it will not be done with guns or physical violence. Anything that we are able to accomplish for the Kingdom of God in these last days, will be done on our knees in prayer.
 
What do you think about it?

A staute from a country that perscutes Christians and has a nominal attachment to a distortion of Christianity.
It means nothing. It is a political gesture.

I would rather the un debated the opposition to and perscution of Christians in its many countries.
 
Many of us know that perilous times are coming as the persecutions of God's own is still present in the world making martyr's of many of the saints, but we need not fear, but pray and trust God in all things as we endure unto the end.

Mat 10:26 Fear them not therefore: for there is nothing covered, that shall not be revealed; and hid, that shall not be known.
Mat 10:27 What I tell you in darkness, that speak ye in light: and what ye hear in the ear, that preach ye upon the housetops.
Mat 10:28 And fear not them which kill the body, but are not able to kill the soul: but rather fear him which is able to destroy both soul and body in hell.
Mat 10:29 Are not two sparrows sold for a farthing? and one of them shall not fall on the ground without your Father.
Mat 10:30 But the very hairs of your head are all numbered.
Mat 10:31 Fear ye not therefore, ye are of more value than many sparrows.
Mat 10:32 Whosoever therefore shall confess me before men, him will I confess also before my Father which is in heaven.
Mat 10:33 But whosoever shall deny me before men, him will I also deny before my Father which is in heaven.
 
The prophecy of this beast statue is the what was, what is and what is yet to come as we study Rev Chapter 13. When the son of perdition takes his literal seat in the holy place of Jerusalem, 2Thessalonians 2:1-5, Jesus warned us to flee as He has a place prepared for us wherever we go to, Matthew 24:15-21; Rev 12:14. At this time many Christians will be taken captive that did not heed the warning to flee and if they will not denounce Christ and bow down and take the mark of this beast, who falsely claims peace and safety to all who takes its mark, they will die a martyr's death.

God's protection is absolute to those who are His own and escape into the wilderness as they trust in Christ to help meet their needs. Just as God told Moses to strike the rock for fresh water, Exodus 17:1-7, and sending manna down from heaven and providing Quail for meat, Exodus 16, so will be the same in the end of days, Philippians 4:19.

The NWO is a Luciferian system of economics, political, military, educational and false religious power that gives power to the beast out of the earth being the son of perdition. By lying signs and wonders the beast will deceive the nations (people) into taking its mark. IMO I think the mark is the thoughts of our mind and the actions of our hands reaching out to this beast that promises peace, safety and provision as many will bow down and worship this beast who claims to be God.

After the 3 1/2 years of this Luciferian reign on earth that will wear out the saints then every eye will see Christ coming in the clouds with His army of angels that are then sent out to gather those saints who are alive at His coming and those who sleep in their graves. We are gathered up to the clouds as we receive our new glorified bodies in order to meet Jesus in the air. From the air He destroys the beast and false prophet by the brightness of His coming only speaking their destruction casting them into the lake of fire. Satan is bound for a time as Jesus sets out to destroy all the nations that followed after the beast. Satan is then released in a final attempt to destroy the saints as he sends his angels out to surround the camp of the saints, but the angels are consumed by fire and Satan cast into the lake of fire. Then comes God's great white throne judgment and the books are opened and all are judged. Then this present heaven and earth are burned up and made new again and the New Jerusalem is ushered down from heaven where we will be with the Lord forever.
 
Glad it's gone, but that sight makes you join first before you can read the article.

Strange...I didn't have that issue as I don't have an account nor subscribe there. I clicked the link on my post and I'm able to just fine.

I know in the past, it has had this pop up window that you'd have to fuss with for a while before you could see any content because it'd want you to enable ads as they were monetized to help their website out. (I never enabled my pop-up blocker so it was more fussing to get around).

It wanted me to disable my ad blocker which I will not do. At least it's not there anymore and did bring up a good awareness topic to be discussed.

Yeah, that's the annoying pop up I meant exactly. I would generally refresh the screen or look up the link in a search engine, click it, and if it gave me the ad I'd click "back", and click back in until it stopped. >_< I understand for anyone that doesn't want to fuss with that :P
