Christian Media Communique THE RISE AND FALL OF THE ROMERICAN EMPIRE - Part IV The present work continues in the dissemination of the revelation that the American Empire fulfills the prophecies of a fourth kingdom, which the prophet Daniel described as "dreadful and terrible" - a power that was destined to tread down the whole earth=2E Unfortunately, as we exist in the sequential timeline during the tenure of that "diverse" beast, the Scriptural pattern seen in previous prophecies in Daniel indicates that those who live in the days which were forecast will largely fail to perceive the truth of their own time=2E Similarly, forecasting great destruction to come upon Jerusalem, the LORD plainly stated that generation was unaware of the prophetic fulfillment which He embodied: "For the days shall come upon thee, that thine enemies shall cast a trench about thee, and compass thee round, and keep thee in on every side, And shall lay thee even with the ground, and thy children within thee; and they shall not leave in thee one stone upon another; because thou knewest not the time of thy visitation" (Luke 19:44)=2E Obviously, the disciples were aware that Christ had come, and it had occurred during the days of the Roman Empire - to say nothing of the fact that Christ Himself referenced the prophet Daniel (Mark 13:14), so the LORD's disciples would have likely made the connection=2E In fact, there are indicators that some people were aware of their place in the prophetic timeline of all four kingdoms - especially the first three sequential empires which characterize the Old Testament era in Daniel 2=2E But the same cannot be said of the four kingdoms in the New Testament era in Daniel 7, which culminate in America=2E Intriguingly, although there is anecdotal data suggesting people recognized their position in the first three kingdoms of Babylon, Persia, and Greece, there is not a single verse in the Bible conclusively indicating the people recognized their own position in the fourth kingdom symbolized by Nebuchadnezzar's dream of a great statue=2E For instance, when Daniel interpreted the dream of Nebuchadnezzar, the King of Babylon was clearly informed that he was to be identified with the head of gold: "Thou, O king, sawest, and behold a great image=2E=2E[whose] head was of fine gold, his breast and his arms of silver, his belly and his thighs of brass, his legs of iron=2EThou art this head of gold" (Daniel 2:31-33, 38)=2E When Daniel interpreted the dream by stating the head of gold represented Nebuchadnezzar and the Babylonian kingdom, he clearly specified that Babylon would be succeeded by an inferior power, imaged as silver (as opposed to Babylon's gold)=2E In addition to a mountain of historical documents, the Old Testament itself shows the Persian Union of the Medes and the Persians conquered Babylon - and there are substantial texts in Scripture which speak of the Persian dominion, so it's difficult to conceive of the idea that the Persians were completely unaware of Daniel's prophecy=2E "Thus saith Cyrus king of Persia, The Lord God of heaven hath given me all the kingdoms of the earth; and he hath charged me to build him an house at Jerusalem, which is in Judah" (Ezra 1:2, II Chronicles 36:23)=2E As the Grecian power of Alexander the Great emerged (the brass kingdom) after the last book of the Old Testament was written (Malachi), there are no Scriptural references showing his Jewish contemporaries recognized Alexander as the kingdom of brass, which was to succeed the Persian "silver=2E" However, the historical accounts, notably Jewish commentaries, plainly show the city of Jerusalem expected Alexander=2E One such account tells the tale: "Soon after their arrival at the gate, Alexander, at the head of his army, made his appearance=2E He was quite astonished at the sight that met his view, and seemed to be overwhelmed on beholding the grand and imposing assembly that came to meet him=2E One of Alexander's confidential and favourite officers, Parmenion by name, ventured at last to ask the King why he, the proud conqueror, showed such marked honour and deference to the Jewish priest=2E "'Listen, then' replied Alexander, 'and I will tell you of a wonderful experience of mine=2E While I was still in Macedonia I often lay awake at night, when all else was at rest, thinking of a plan by which to gain mastery of Asia=2E One evening, when my thoughts were more than usually occupied with this fond scheme of mine, I fell, exhausted by this mental strain, into a deep slumber, and saw in a vision an awe-inspiring man standing before me=2E "'That vision of mine was no myth, no nightmare, not the phantasy of a heated brain; for not only have I, since that vision, never met with anything but victory, but in the hoar-headed and venerable servant of the Jewish God, in his attire and in his bearing, I see no other than the man of my vision=2E Shall I not then revere the man who was the messenger of his God to lead me to victory?' The High Priest directed his attention also to the passage in Daniel 8:5, where it is foretold that a Greek ruler (which term the high Priest applied to Alexander) would overthrow the Persian kingdom, and Alexander was exceedingly pleased with all he saw and heard" (Alexander of Macedon, sacred-texts=2Ecom)=2E Incredibly, although there is even a New Testament book named after the Romans, there is no Scriptural verse specifically indicating the people who lived during the time of the Roman Empire recognized their own era as the fourth kingdom of the Old Testament quartet of kingdoms, forecast in the statue dream of gold, silver, brass, and iron in Daniel chapter 2=2E Unfortunately, in the New Testament sequence of kingdoms which parallel the statue - the lion kingdom of the British Commonwealth, the bear kingdom of the Soviet Union, and the leopard kingdom of Hitler's Third Reich - there are no historical accounts suggesting that anyone in those generations recognized the connection=2E Incredibly, as the era of royalty and the "divine right of kings," symbolized by the lion kingdom of England emerged, we have no historical references that anyone connected the hugely important event associated with the madness of King George III, with the Scripturally documented madness which afflicted Nebuchadnezzar: "They shall drive thee from men, and thy dwelling shall be with the beasts of the field: they shall make thee to eat grass as oxen=2EAll this came upon the king Nebuchadnezzar" (Daniel 4:32, 28)=2E There is even a strange episode during George's lengthy insanity involving a tree in Windsor Park - a tree which the deranged king engaged in conversation=2E This is yet another of many ironic connections, since the prophecy of the madness of his Old Testament parallel King Nebuchadnezzar was centered on the imagery of a great tree, which was symbolically cut down in Daniel's 4th chapter=2E For the benefit of those who failed their history class, King George III was the British monarch who sat on the throne in 1776, when the "eagle's wings were plucked=2E" The transition to the bear kingdom in the New Testament era, as well as the move to silver from gold in the Old Testament set, also has an eerie parallel in both timelines=2E In the ancient set of four kingdoms, the golden head of Babylon degrades to the silver arms of Persia, whereas the Christian era set of four kingdoms sees the lion kingdom of Britain succeeded by the bear kingdom of the Soviet Union=2E At Babylon's fall, the royal family, headed by Belshazzar and the celebrated queen mother of Babylon, were all murdered at the famous evening party, according to the Greek historian Xenophon=2E The Biblically described scene includes the now famous handwriting which mysteriously appeared on the wall, just before the Persians came in to kill the royals=2E This is paralleled by the time of the Bolsheviks, when the entire royal family of the Romanovs were shot and bayoneted on the night of July 16th, 1918 in Ekaterinburg, under orders from Vladimer Lenin=2E In the ancient set, when the handwriting appeared, the queen mother had come under the influence of a mystic who had extraordinary powers=2E His name was Daniel, and the queen clearly believed he had supernatural abilities: "There is a man in thy kingdom, in whom is the spirit of the holy gods; and in the days of thy father light and understanding and wisdom, like the wisdom of the gods was found in him; whom the king=2Emade master of the magicians, astrologers, Chaldeans, and soothsayers" (Daniel 5:12)= =2E In the parallel account, as the reign of the Russian royals was coming to an end, the queen mother had come under the influence of a mystic who had extraordinary powers=2E His name was Rasputin, and the queen clearly believed he had supernatural abilities=2E When Nebuchadnezzar's dynastic line came to an end at the large dinner party described in Daniel 5, the Scriptures indicate the blasphemous use of sacred artifacts seized by Nebuchadnezzar years earlier from the Jewish temple, was what triggered the writing on the wall, and the Persian onslaught=2E In the modern parallel, history records the Bolsheviks were mostly Jewish, with the murder squad which brutally slaughtered the defenseless Romanov family - including 5 children -- led by a Jewish communist named Yakov Yurovsky=2E Thus, in the parallel, a Gentile king was murdered by a Jewish Communist, in what could be described as a bizarre parallel to the ancient retribution=2E The now thoroughly researched grisly murder scene even featured an echo of the notorious writing on the wall - a single sentence penned by an unknown hand=2E In the Ipatiev House where the Romanovs were killed, lines adapted from the German-Jewish poet Heinrich Heine (1797-1856) were found written on the wall=2E This writing connected the murders of the royal Romanovs with the murders of the Babylonian royal family, and it read as follows: "Belsatzar was, on the same night, killed by his slaves=2E" It's worth reminding the reader the Babylonian royal was Belshazzar, but the mysterious writer in Russia - whose identity is unknown to this very day - changed the name to read Belsatzar, compounding the title of the royals, then known as the Czars, with the proper name of Belshazzar=2E A measured analysis of the sequential kingdoms seen in Britain, Russia, Germany, and America also indicates the lion, bear, and leopard symbolize transitional eras, as the reign of the royals (exemplified by the English kings) concluded with multiple populist movements=2E The English revolution, wherein King Charles I became the first royal executed by his own people in 1649 - was followed by the French revolution in 1793, in which Louis XVI was beheaded=2E The murder of the Russian royal family came in 1918, but the signature event, inaugurating the next phase of history, in the transition to populist movements, occurred in 1776 with the American Revolution=2E This transition, which climaxed in the rise of the Russian bear kingdom, is noted in the Scriptures themselves, where Daniel the prophet sees a change coming from the reign of the British lion, described with vivid, and obvious imagery: "And four great beasts came up from the sea, diverse one from another= =2E The first was like a lion, and had eagle's wings: I beheld till the wings thereof were plucked=2E=2E" (Daniel 7:3, 4)=2E -- James Lloyd [To Be Continued] Dear Christian Friend, This prophecy article was sent to you by one of our volunteers -
