1 The Timeline of Daniel and Revelation
The story begins in 605 BC with Daniel a captive in Babylon. Daniel’s first dream of the great image is the figure of a man. ‘The great image’ of the man is the foundation of the story.  It is a representation of all the kingdoms of the world until the Second Coming of Jesus.

2 The Great Image of Daniel 2:31-35
God uses metals to show the value of each kingdom starting with gold, which is very precious; and ending with iron mixed with clay that is worthless. As time passes the kingdoms of the earth degenerate morally and financially from precious as gold to worthless as iron mixed with clay. The kingdom of iron and clay represents the last generation of the world just before Jesus comes. What is the strength or value of a building or machine of iron mixed with clay?
3 "The Great Image of Daniel 2:31-35 is a 'part' of the world that represents 'the whole world.' The way God treated the kings and the inhabitants of the Mediterranean area represents how God loves and disciplines all His children in the entire world."
 
4 Daniel 2:34 'While you were watching, a rock was cut out, but not by human hands. It was moving at the speed of light from the heavens.'
This phrase means the end of the world, but the end will not occur by the hands of people. Jesus, the Rock, will bring this world to an end.
5 'The Rock [Christ] struck the statue on its feet of iron and clay.'
The Rock represents Jesus, the King of Kings and Lord of Lords coming on His white horse, in Revelation 19:11, to save the saints and destroy all earthy kingdoms that are worthless as iron mixed with clay. Then Jesus sets up His everlasting kingdom.
6 Daniel 2:34 '...and smashed them.'
The Rock represents Jesus, the King of Kings and Lord of Lords coming on His white horse, in Revelation 19:11, to save the saints and destroy all earthy kingdoms that are worthless as iron mixed with clay. Then Jesus sets up His everlasting kingdom.
7 'Daniel 2:45  This is the meaning of the vision of the rock cut out of a mountain, but not by human hands - a rock that broke the iron, the bronze, the clay, the silver and the gold to pieces. "The great God has shown the king what will take place in the future. The dream is true and the interpretation is trustworthy."
8 Daniel 2:35 '...[The Rock - Christ] became a huge mountain and filled the whole earth.'
[Christ’s kingdom is global] The ‘Rock’ breaks all the different metals at the same time. This means that all the different kingdoms will be present at the end by their cultures, traditions, religions and politics. The beast of Revelation 13:1-2 is the global crisis government of the future Great Tribulation, which is a composite beast of the past
9 "Four Winds are a Global Event."
Daniel 7:2 Daniel said: “In my vision at night I looked, and there before me were the four winds of heaven [global] churning up the great sea. Four great beasts [kingdoms], each different from the others, came up out of the sea [many people].
10 Babylon 605 B.C.
“The first was like a lion [Babylon 605 BC], and it had wings of an eagle [fast]. I watched until its wings were torn off and it was lifted from the ground so that it stood on two feet like a man, and the heart of a man [like King Saul] was given to it.”
11 Medo-Persia 538 B.C.
“And there before me was a second beast, which looked like a bear [Medo-Persia 538 BC]. It was raised up on one of its sides, and it had three ribs in its mouth between its teeth. It was told, ‘Get up and eat you fill of flesh!’
12 Greece 331 B.C.
“After that, I looked, and there before me was another beast, one that looked like a leopard [Greece 331 BC]. And on its back it had four wings like those of a bird. This beast had four heads [four generals], and it was given authority to rule.”
13 Pagan Rome 168 BC
“”After that, in my vision at night I looked, and there before me was a fourth beast [Pagan Rome 168 BC] –terrifying and frightening and very powerful. It had large iron teeth [like the legs of the image]; it crushed and devoured its victims and trampled underfoot whatever was left. It was different from all the other former beasts, and it had ten horns [division of Rome 476 AD].
14 Papal Rome 538 AD to 1798 AD
“While I was thinking about the horns, there before me was another horn, a little one [papal Rome 533 AD], which came up among them; and three of the first horns were uprooted [538 AD] before it [three kingdoms]. The horn had eyes like the eyes of a man and a mouth that spoke boastfully [ruled for 1,260 years 1798 AD].”
15 Daniel 7:9-10  "As I looked, "thrones were set in place [in 1798AD], and the Ancient of Days took his seat. His clothing was a white as snow; the color of his head was white like wool. His throne was flaming with fire, and its wheels were all ablaze. A river of fire was flowing, coming out from before him. Thousands upon thousands attended him; ten thousand times ten thousand stood before him. The court was seated, and the book were opened."
16 A Restraining Order Against the Little Horn 1798
The scene is dated by the Ancient of Days passing a restraining order to stop the persecution of the papacy against the saints that lasted 1,260 years [Daniel 7:25]. Look at Daniel 7:21-22 " As I watched, this horn was raging war against the saints and defeating them, until the Ancient of Days came and pronounced judgment in favor of the saints of the Most High, and the time came when they possessed the kingdom"
17 Judgment of the World 1844 AD
The date that God chose to judge each person and cleanse the sanctuary of each person’s sins was set by God before the world began in 1844 AD or two thousand there hundred years from the date of Medo-Persian King, Artaxerxes, signed the decree to release Israel to go home and finish rebuilding Jerusalem. The judgment of the world is done by the process of cleansing the sanctuary. As each person is forgiven throughout their lives – all of their sins are transferred to the altars in the heavenly sanctuary
18 Jesus starting the judgment of mankind with Abel being the first to be judged
Beginning in 1844 Jesus reviewed the life of Abel, the first person to die, and Abel’s sins were cleansed from the sanctuary because he had faith in the Saviour; thus Abel was sealed with eternal life. Then Jesus opened the books of the next person’s life and so forth down through the centuries of time sealing some with eternal life and condemning others with eternal death.
19 Horn Boasts Again in the Future Great Tribulation
Satan, the little horn of Daniel 8:11, appears physically, masquerading as Jesus. Jesus allows Satan, masquerading as God on earth, to cast Truth to the ground for the purpose of creating the greatest possible contrast between truth and lies. Those that worship Satan are lost and those who worship God are saved; therefore the cleansing of the sanctuary comes to an end by the choices each person makes.
20 Jesus Burns the Beast at His Secong Coming
The story of apocalyptic prophecy begins with the Kingdom of Babylon in 605 BC, and ends with the burning of the beast in the first
lake of fire, that is created by Jesus with the seventh plague of sulfur bombs, just prior to His Second Coming [Revelation 19:11-21].
21 Abel - Genesis 4
All the examples of Abel, Noah, Abraham sacrificing lambs, and the story of Abraham sacrificing his son Isaac, was to teach Israel that God was going to send His Son to give His life for the sins of the world – to pay the debt of sin, which is death. By the time of Jesus, Israel had completely lost the meaning of the evening and morning sacrifice that foreshadowed the Messiah’s death.
22 Abraham as God the Father & Isaac as Jesus the Son of God
All the examples of Abel, Noah, Abraham sacrificing lambs, and the story of Abraham sacrificing his son Isaac, was to teach Israel that God was going to send His Son to give His life for the sins of the world – to pay the debt of sin, which is death. By the time of Jesus, Israel had completely lost the meaning of the evening and morning sacrifice that foreshadowed the Messiah’s death.
23 God's Original Plan
Jesus was born to reveal the love of the Father and to die to redeem the world from sin. Jesus would have voluntarily walked into the temple on Passover, giving His life freely for the sins of the world. The High Priest would have been in agony – his eyes would have been filled with tears streaming down his face as he pierced the throat of Jesus. Then on the third day Jesus would have been raised from the dead, and Israel would have taken the gospel to the entire world.
24 Israel's Leaders Murdered the Son of God
It was not God’s plan for Israel’s leaders to murder His Son. But the Jewish leaders hated the truth. They had become so self-righteous in their own eyes they had no need of a Saviour; thus they rejected the altogether lovely character of Jesus. They were not interested in truth or being redeemed from sin. They wanted money, power, prosperity, fancy houses, and national supremacy – they wanted to be the ones ruling, and not to be ruled. Literal Israel missed the birth of Jesus and His anointing because they were teaching the traditions of men just like the churches today. Jerusalem was destroyed in 70 AD because Israel had rejected and murdered the Saviour of the world, their Creator.
25 The Birth of Jesus & The Dragon - 4 BC Birth of Jesus & The Devil's Attempt to Kill Baby Jesus
This prophecy of Revelation 12:1-6 begins in 4 BC. A picture is worth a thousand words. Even though Mary was chosen by God to bring Jesus into the world, the glorious, cosmic picture of the woman clothed with the glory of God represents much more than the mother of Jesus – the woman represents not only God’s church on earth, but the church of the entire universe anticipating Christ’s birth. The life of Jesus has saved millions of unfallen worlds from the fear and doubt created by the intruder of sin. Lucifer’s hideous behavior has answered their questions concerning Lucifer’s accusations against God.
