What The Bible Says
Good Samaritan's Penny Pulpit by Pastor Ed Rice
It is curious that John in the Isle of Patmos was told by the Lord Jesus Christ to “write the things which thou hast seen, and the things which are, and the things which shall be hereafter” (Rev1:19), and in Daniel 7 is written the things which Daniel had seen, the Babylonian and Medo-Persian Empires represented in the first and second beast, the things which are, being the third beast representative of the rising Grecian Empire, and the things which shall be hereafter, represented in the dreadful and terrible fourth beast. Daniel says, “Then I would know the truth of the fourth beast” (Dan7:19), and there follows a description of the end times which is fully fleshed out in the Revelation of Jesus Christ. Revelation is written in Greek but has its soul is in the Hebrew imagery portrayed in Daniel. For those with ears to hear it lays out events that “must shortly come to pass.” The forth beast of Daniel 7 is the dragon of Revelation 12:3, 13:1, 17:3,7; the ten horns are ten kings which receive dragon power for one hour (17:12,16). Their mother church taught all Protestants to read their Bibles as allegorical literature and they have no ears to hear. They cannot understand Christ on the Throne of David because they suppose they replaced Israel in God's promises. They so misconceive, “Thy kingdom come” that Ellen White (SDA) said it would in 1844, Charles Taze Russell (JW) in 1878, Edgar Whisenant in 1988, and Harold Camping in 2011. All these false teachers started with Roman misinformation about God's chosen people, Israel, and “no ears to hear” the Revelation of Jesus Christ. These anti-Christs spring from MYSTERY, BABYLON THE GREAT, THE MOTHER OF HARLOTS” (Revelation 17:5). They play right into the hand of that dragon.
