Daniel 2 – the Iron and the Clay

Question:

P.S. do you know any way of connecting the clay in the feet of Daniel 2 with the church / Papacy… in the Bible ? I know that that is easy with Daniel 7… but what about Dan. 2 ?

Answer:

Daniel 2 can be shown as the church and state scenario through the fact that the iron equals Rome (in the division between the iron and clay, there is an obvious change in the character/position of Rome) and the clay is represented as God’s people in Jeremiah 18. “Jeremiah 18:1 The word which came to Jeremiah from the LORD, saying, Jeremiah 18:2 Arise, and go down to the potter’s house, and there I will cause thee to hear my words. Jeremiah 18:3 Then I went down to the potter’s house, and, behold, he wrought a work on the wheels. Jeremiah 18:4 And the vessel that he made of […]

Why Did God Tempt Abraham?

Hello _______.

This is an interesting question that has led many a Bible student to stop and think further–myself included.
“God cannot be tempted with evil,” according to James 1:13, neither does He tempt any man. But the Bible says, “God did tempt Abraham” (Genesis 22:1, KJV). How can we reconcile this conflict of terms?
“We read that God tempted Abraham, that He tempted the children of Israel. This means that He permitted circumstances to occur to test their faith, and lead them to look to Him for help.” (BC 1094.2)
The Bible says so little about it, we must believe that God’s Word about Himself is true. If God doesn’t tempt man with evil, then that’s what happened. God must have tempted Abraham with something that was not evil. God must have tempted him with a different motive. We can read that Abraham believed that God would […]

1 Corinthians 11:1-16 Considered

1Co 11:1 Be ye followers of me, even as I also am of Christ.

1Co 11:2 Now I praise you, brethren, that ye remember me in all things, and keep the ordinances (this word is translated ‘traditions’ every of the 13 times but this one in the NT), as I delivered them to you.

1Co 11:3 But I would have you know, that the head (symbol of authority) of every man is Christ; and the head (symbol of authority) of the woman is the man; and the head (symbol of authority) of Christ is God.

1Co 11:4 Every man praying or prophesying, having his head (symbol of authority) covered, dishonoureth his head (symbol of authority).

1Co 11:5 But every woman that prayeth or prophesieth with her head (symbol of authority) uncovered (as though […]

Zechariah 6

I was asked a question about Zechariah 6. Here’s what God lead me to…

Quote:
Are you referring to “Zechariah 6:12 And speak unto him, saying, Thus speaketh the LORD of hosts, saying, Behold the man whose name is The BRANCH; and he shall grow up out of his place, and he shall build the temple of the LORD:
Zechariah 6:13 Even he shall build the temple of the LORD; and he shall bear the glory, and shall sit and rule upon his throne; and he shall be a priest upon his throne: and the counsel of peace shall be between them both.”??

If so, the BRANCH is the question. Who is that?

Notice a few verses that can be directly applied to Jesus:

Isaiah 11:1 And there shall come forth a rod out of the stem of Jesse, and a Branch shall grow out of his roots:
Isaiah 11:2 And […]

Did Jesus Need Grace?

Hello ……………..,

You said, “Hello pastor, My name is …………….. and i am writting to ask for clarification on some verses i have had trouble understanding. The verses speak about Grace and they are as follows.
(Luk 2:40) And the child grew, and waxed strong in spirit, filled with wisdom: and the grace of God was upon him.
(Joh 1:14) And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and truth.

My question is did Jesus need Grace ? And is the Grace spoken of in the above verses similar to that which the apostle Paul in the book of Ephesians ? (Eph 2:8) For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that […]

Priesthood of All Believers

Hello ______________,

The text comes from 1 Peter 2:5-10:

1Peter 2:5 Ye also, as lively stones, are built up a spiritual house, an holy priesthood, to offer up spiritual sacrifices, acceptable to God by Jesus Christ.

1Peter 2:6 Wherefore also it is contained in the scripture, Behold, I lay in Sion a chief corner stone, elect, precious: and he that believeth on him shall not be confounded.

1Peter 2:7 Unto you therefore which believe he is precious: but unto them which be disobedient, the stone which the builders disallowed, the same is made the head of the corner,

1Peter 2:8 And a stone of stumbling, and a rock of offence, even to them which stumble at the word, being disobedient: whereunto also they were appointed.

Churches, Seals, and Trumpets All Historic

ChurchThank you for asking about how the seven churches of Revelation 2-3 can be part of the historic view of the Christian faith starting with the time of Christ and going through to the second coming of Christ. I’ll just say that I’ll be part of this conversation, not the final answer.

There are three sevens in the sequences of the churches, seals and trumpets:

  • 7 Churches
  • 7 Seals
  • 7 Trumpets

There are pictures of Christ in ministry before each of the sevens:

  • Chapter 1 has a picture of Christ followed by 7 churches.
  • Chapters 4-5 have a picture of Christ followed by 7 seals.
  • Chapter 8 has a picture of Christ followed by 7 trumpets.

WO Testimony

I have been so blessed by watching the messages on YouTube from the Women’s Ordination Symposium. After watching Julie Mesa’s presentation, I wanted to share a testimony with you regarding my experience in the career lane and as a mother.

I entered Medical School at the age of 35 because it seemed I was not going to ever have a family. I found that doing medical missionary work was my way of sharing my maternal nurturing as well as giving the gospel message. However, I married during school and had my first and only child. It was all I could do to finish school while I had a child at home (or at a sitter’s). I noticed that the majority of staff in the hospital were women, with children at home. I would ask myself, “Who’s taking care of our children?” When I […]

Question regarding the Sabbath

Hello,

Thank you for writing. You wrote:
I saw your video, & I believe it. I also know Jesus did not rebuke the disciples for picking on the Sabbath, corn, I think. The reason for this question is I went to my work & I asked if I could have every Saturday off. I felt I could not go into detail, but did enough for her to know why. She is a Christian, & I asked her did she want to know facts. She did not. I have one Saturday off a month, so she gave me 3 choices, neither would work. My question is, if we do worship, can we also work, or is working out. I know God rested, sanctified it Hallowed it, &I blessed it. Why did Jesus heal, & not rebuke the disciples? What do I do?

To be sure, God wants you to be […]

Matthew 16:28

“Can you please explain to me matt 16:28 as we studying with group.”

Hello _________________,

Thank you so much for contacting me from RevelationWithDaniel. =)

Good for you studying with others. Here are a few thoughts regarding the verse(s) in question:

Matt. 16:28 Verily I say unto you, There be some standing here, which shall not taste of death, till they see the Son of man coming in His Kingdom.

Matt. 17:1 ¶ And after six days Jesus taketh Peter, James, and John his brother, and bringeth them up into an high mountain apart,

Matt. 17:2 And was transfigured before them: and His face did shine as the sun, and His raiment was white as the light…

The same story can be found in Mark 9:1-13, and Luke 9:27-36.

7 Angels Dressed as Priests in Revelation 15

Hello again __________,

The significance of the temple of the tabernacle of the testimony being open in Heaven in 15:5 signifies a time frame: the time of the Day of Atonement. It was only during the DoA that anyone (specifically the high priest) would see that part of the temple. Yes, it is at the end of the DoA, but it is during that time when God sends out the seven Angels (the same time the four Angels will loose their holds on the winds in 7:1).

The “seven angels” appear 9 times in the KJV in the Revelation. Each time (in the trumpets of 8 -11, in Heaven during the time of the plagues in 15, on earth during the time of the plagues in 16, during the explanation of the judgment of the great whore in 17, and the blessed judgment of the bride […]

3 Woes Part of the 7 Trumpets?

Hello __________,

Regarding your last message about the last 3 woes being the first of the 10 (not just the seven) last plagues: I’ve never heard that before, and don’t believe the person you’re referring to has a strong foundation to stand on, as the book of Revelation is laid out structurally to support something differently. Here’s what I mean:

  • Chapter 1 has a picture of Christ followed by 7 churches.
  • Chapter 4-5 have a picture of Christ followed by 7 seals.
  • Chapter 8 has a picture of Christ followed by 7 trumpets.

The seals have an interlude between the 6th and the 7th seal.
The trumpets have an interlude between the 6th and the 7th trumpet.

The book of Revelation is laid out that way, I believe, showing how we ought to understand it.

Also, an amazing book called “The Great Controversy” on page 334-5 says, “In the year 1840, another remarkable […]

The plagues of Exodus and the Revelation

Hello ____________,

Glad to hear you are studying this subject. I haven’t don’t a specific correlation study, because what I’ve seen is that people who take the OT plagues and apply them to the book of Revelation, have done it in a way that makes most of the book of Revelation look like it applies to the end as a future application. This is not how I study the Revelation, as it makes better than perfect sense to apply it in the past, present and future, as John does in 1:19.

Because the Revelation uses the term “seven last plagues” in 15:1 and 21:9, I will refer to the seven last plagues of the Exodus (though in the Revelation they are the last plagues this earth will ever have as well).

Beautiful Providence

Daniel… “After I talked with you at ____ and ______’s house I was impressed to figure out how I could help with your Revelation project as I saw the passion you have for it. I prayed about it and really felt I should be involved somehow. Then I prayed that if I should work with you the next client I had coming into my office would need to bring your name up within 15 minutes. Your name came up within 12 minutes just through normal conversation without me bringing it up…”

Amazing…
