All right. And we want to talk a little bit about what God has shown us from the Word, what the Antichrist's government's going to be like. And it's really not hard, I don't think, for us in this day and time to be able to understand and see how uh the things that that that the Bible's going to tell us about it, uh, how that that it's not going to come come to be. Okay, so uh we see that uh in Daniel chapter 2, um Nebuchadnezzar, who was the uh king of uh of Babylon at the time, uh where the children of Israel, many of them are Judah actually, were in captivity in Babylon. Daniel was one of those, uh, Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego. We've all heard about those three in the fire furnace, Daniel and the lion's den. They were all in um had been in captivity in Babylon. And so it would have been very easy for uh Daniel to have um thought that Israel may be finished, you know, or whatever, and but he he managed to keep his faith in God, even though it looked pretty bleak and looked pretty bad. Well, because he stayed faithful, God was faithful to him, and God told him then in Daniel chapter 9 that there was going to be allotted still to the children of Israel 490 years. They were going to go get back into uh their um uh their country, uh, they were going to start gonna have their their sacrifices and worship again as they had it before, it would happen. There would be a prince that was to come, which was the Antichrist, and he would come and he would deceive them, he would set up a covenant with them and give them uh the right to be able to sacrifice and things of that sort until halfway through that seven years, and then halfway through, uh, he will break that covenant with them and he will expect them to worship him. Okay, but in Daniel chapter two, he tells us something about the uh uh the antichrists government that I think we miss, and it goes right back to something that Jesus told us uh in Luke chapter 17. Uh remember that the uh the dream that Nebuchadnezzar has of the image, this tall image, and uh he wanted someone that could tell him what the dream was that he had, and then obviously he would believe the interpretation. Well, Daniel sought God and God gave him favor, and he went in and told Nebuchadnezzar what his dream was, of this great towering image. And then he and then he broke down the image and what it what it meant, what it stood for. At this time, Babylon was in control of the known world at that time, and uh so they were the country, they were the uh dictatorship uh that had taken over the world, Babylon did. And and uh uh Daniel tells Nebuchadnezzar that he is the gold head of this image. Then there is the breastplate and arms that are silver, and uh that Daniel tells him will be the Persian Empire that will eventually take over. It will not be as great as the Babylonian Empire, but it will still it will take over, and that is represented by the breast and the arms of silver. Then the belly and the thigh were brass, and that would be the Grecian uh Empire, and it would take over, and uh that kingdom would. And uh the uh the Babylonian Empire is the lion, the the media uh the uh Persian Empire is the bear, the Grecian Empire is the is the leopard, and then the and then the uh next one is the legs, which is uh legs of iron, and that would be the Roman Empire, uh which is the dragon, all right. And then the last would be the Antichrist Empire, and um that would be the feet and the toes, and they are a mixture of two items, of clay and of uh iron. And it says that they will be a divided kingdom, they will they will be weak because of the clay, but they will be strong because of the iron. Now, what what kind of you know mixture is this? Well, it's interesting. In Daniel chapter two, he gives us this verse, which again will go back to what uh Jesus had told us about in Luke chapter 17. In uh Daniel chapter two and verse forty-three, it says, As you saw the iron mixed with the clay, they will mingle with the seed of man, but they will not adhere to one another, just as iron does not mix with clay. So he says is is that that in this empire that that the Antichrist will have, they will be mingling the clay and the seed of man, but it won't take, they won't adhere to one another, they won't produce anything. Now, so so what's going on here? Well, Jesus told us in Luke chapter 17 of the Gospel of Luke, told us he said that the Son of Man when he returns, it'll be like the days of Noah. Okay. So, and he says they'll be drinking and they'll be uh uh you know uh uh give uh marrying, and it says giving in marriage. Not only does it say that they'll be marrying, but they'll be giving in marriage. It would be easy to overlook that and just say that they're going to be going on with normal activities or something, but that's not that's not what he's talking about here. That reference is a is a reference directly to Rome, I mean Genesis chapter six. Why? That's where Noah it tells us that these angels, these fallen angels, will come and see the daughters of men, and they will see that they are beautiful, and they will t leave their first estate, and they will mingle, they cohabitate with the daughters of men, and they will produce, the daughters of men will get pregnant and produce giants in the land. And if you study that word in the Greek, they'll produce, it is a mixture of celestial beings and natural or human beings. They are a mixture. This is where demons come from. Fallen angels, all right, are not demons. Fallen angels are not demons. Fallen angels are just that, they're fallen angels, all right. Those that that Satan had pulled out of heaven and those that left their first state, um, those are angels. But demons are the offspring of this um uh of this coming together of the fallen angels and the uh the daughters of men, and they'll produce that. And Jesus in in 17, it's interesting, is he takes us back to that situation when he says they'll be marrying and they'll be given in marriage. He is giving us a clue, he's giving us an insight into what he's talking about here. He is saying is that there's going to be more of this demonic mingling in the um in the uh Antichrist's government, that 10-toed government. Those ten toes represent ten countries, and those ten countries will come together to uh put together a confederacy. Probably they'll come together in mind thinking that they've got to save the world from man because man's going to end up blowing up the world. That's probably what they're thinking, and that's why they come together and do this. But what will eventually come out of that is the Antichrist will come out and he will eventually be a dictator. But notice his kingdom will be a kingdom that is mingled with demon demons and with uh humans. It will be a mingling. But notice what it says, though. When the when the angels fell in Genesis 6, they came down and they mingled with the daughters of men, which produced um which produced um um uh you know the half uh angels and half humans. Well, this here says is that they'll mingle not with with women. It says, they will mingle with the seed of man. Why is it saying that? Saying that because I believe this is a reference to the fact is is that uh homosexuality will be on the ramp, will be rampant because of the demonic activity that's involved. All right. We see in Romans chapter one that uh uh that that when any time a people have left God and they walk it begin to walk in darkness, when they get to the place to where they um they are involved in homosexual activity, you know, sexual perversion, then what happens is that they're given over to a reprobate mind in that. It's a deeper darkness. It it it is a sign of how deep a darkness man has gone. Now, that is what's being said. We know that um um um uh people who study cultures and that and uh and study uh peoples and uh and kingdoms and things, they say when a country has three sins or three crimes prevalent in it, it is headed for a fall homosexuality, child molestation, and incest. And we see that these are all coming from perverted spirits. And the Antichrist's kingdom will be made up of these perverted spirits. So, what does that mean for us? Well, what that means is that if you're not right with God, we are obviously living in a dark time. If you haven't accepted Jesus Christ as your personal Savior, then now's the time to accept Him. The Bible tells us that if we confess with our mouth the Lord Jesus Christ and believe in our heart that God is risen Him from the dead, thou shalt be saved. All right? For with the heart men believe unto the righteous, and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation. Just confessing, just confess Jesus now, accept him into your life, all right, and be ready, because surely the time is close. We are approaching the time when these things are about to take place, when these things are about to happen. In fact, it is my belief that this very war with Iran is leading us into that time of uh of of the seven year tribulation period. God bless you.
