Daniel 8B Antiochus and Antichrist
Most conservative Bible scholars believe verses 20-22 have been completely fulfilled in history. The sticking points of disagreement occur with verse 23 and following. In my opinion, verses 23-25 could represent a near/far view. The near fulfillment sees Antiochus IV as the historical persecutor as in vv 9-14 (MacArthur). Antiochus as king in 164 BC was “in the latter period of their rule.” Rome conquered Greece in 146 BC and Antiochus died “broken without human agency” from insanity and disease of the bowels.
Satan’s Insanity, Pt 2
Globalists have the same exact mental condition as Satan. In his book, Ancient Paganism, by Ken Johnson, we noted that Lucifer (Satan before his fall), became literally insane. Satan thought of and fully embraced the idea that when God creates people, He imparts part of His spirit to them, literally giving away part of Himself. Because of this, Satan believes God is no longer 100% God anymore, but at this point, maybe 45-47% God or less, while totally, all the people living on the earth may actually be more God together than God is now. Johnson says this is what is called the Doctrine of Emanations.
Satan’s Insanity, Pt 1
Lucifer’s arrogance led to self-deceit. He fell through sin and became Satan. His fate is certain and his time is short although it is possible he’s insane enough to believe he will eventually gain what he seeks. It is not unreasonable to understand that those who choose the same path as Satan will also become self-deceived like him in their thinking and outlook. As Satan wanted to replace God with himself, so too do those who follow Satan in his insanity begin seeing themselves as God.
Daniel 8A Ram and Goat
Antiochus IV was the 8th king of the Seleucid dynasty and he ruled as king from 175 to 164 BC (1 Macc 1:10; 6; 16). He conducted military campaigns in all those directions. Here in Daniel 8, the vision begins to focus on future Israel and the Jews. In fact, much of this vision is future to Daniel, but the second half of the chapter is still yet future from our perspective. Antiochus was especially vengeful against the Jews whom he persecuted brutally (Constable) and Whitcomb notes he was one of Israel’s worst persecutors ever.
Sons of God, Mt Hermon and Transfiguration
Again, had Satan understood who he was actually dealing with in the Person of Jesus, Paul tells us that he would not have incited humans to crucify our Lord. This to me, this points to the fact that Satan was likely not aware of just who Jesus actually was and certainly had no true understanding of His mission or the entire process of salvation that would become available to all who came to our Lord in repentance, seeking eternal life. Satan could not fathom it at all.
How They Did It
The push is on for globalists to make their last ditch attempt to galvanize global society to final NWO. They want to bring in the Great Reset and that will likely be done by the Great Taking, as noted previously. But remember, this Great Taking is only part of the picture. If they hit us with enough negative things, they hope to increase the fear to the point where people stop thinking and simply obey. CV was the test and most of global society failed miserably. Globalists celebrated and then got together to form the final battle plan.
Daniel 7 Pt 3 Interpretation Given
All the earth shall become the 11th horn/fourth beast for a time, times, and half a times – three and a half years total from midpoint of Tribulation (2 Thessalonians 2); the second half of Tribulation. Jesus refers to this as the Great Tribulation in Matthew 24. This is a truly global government at this point and the question to ask is how does the world get to that point?
Technocracy, Transhumanism and NWO
It is impossible to avoid all the signs occurring throughout society. These signs, precipitating changes for the worst globally, are at our doorsteps. If I didn’t think they were actually affecting change, I wouldn’t bother to highlight them. Unfortunately, it is the exact opposite. These changes are occurring, creating a more favorable situation globally for the technocrats to continue their push.
Evil Twins
In his recently published book, The Evil Twins of Technocracy and Transhumanism, Patrick M. Wood outlines the process that has been used by technocrats throughout the years to create a new economic system based solely on scientism (not actual science). Wood includes plenty of factual details related to exactly how technocrat globalists have taken control over and manipulated the existing economic system for themselves and where they are going with it.
Daniel 7 Part 2 – Ancient of Days
It is completely understandable why Daniel and other prophets (including the apostle John), were often somewhat confused by the visions and dreams they received related to the end times. Consider the amount of technology we have today compared to what Daniel and John had during their day. They had no electricity, no cell phones, no computers, no cars, planes or things like that. What they actually saw in their visions might have easily included aspects of future technology. I can see why that may have been confusing to them and kept them from seeing things as we can see them during our day.
