  1. Have Daniel’s Prophecies Come True? The Book of Daniel

  2. Pseudo Prophecy A Famous Prediction “The senseless ire of the furious combat will cause steel to be flashed at the table by brothers. To part them, death, wound, and curiously the proud duel will come to hurt France.” • Nostradamus (Century II Q 34) Predicts the Camp David accord between Israel and Egypt and the assassination of Anwar Sadat.

  3. Next Time Facts From Daniel So Far: • Israel will be re-gathered as a nation. • 10-Nation “Revived Roman Empire”. • Great Ruler Emerges: “The Beast” • World unites under his leadership. • Has complete power for 3.5 years. • Ushers in a “New World Religion” • Persecutes “The Saints”

  4. Is It Plausible for Ancient Nations to Disappear, Then Reappear? Israel? A Revived Roman Empire?

  5. Isaiah 11:12 Then it will happen on that day that the Lord Will again recover the second time with His hand the remnant of His people, who will remain, From Assyria, Egypt, Pathros, Cush, Elam, Shinar, Hamath,And from the islands of the sea. He will raise a banner for the nations and gather the exiles of Israel; he will assemble the scattered people of Judah from the four quarters of the earth.

  6. Ezekiel 37:1-3 The hand of the Lord was upon me, and he brought me out by the Spirit of the Lord and set me in the middle of a valley; it was full of bones. [2] He led me back and forth among them, and I saw a great many bones on the floor of the valley, bones that were very dry. [3] He asked me, "Son of man, can these bones live?" I said, "O Sovereign Lord, you alone know."

  7. Ezekiel 37:4-6 Then he said to me, "Prophesy to these bones and say to them, 'Dry bones, hear the word of the Lord! [5] This is what the Sovereign Lord says to these bones: I will make breath enter you, and you will come to life. [6] I will attach tendons to you and make flesh come upon you and cover you with skin; I will put breath in you, and you will come to life. Then you will know that I am the Lord.' "

  8. Ezekiel 37:7-8 So I prophesied as I was commanded. And as I was prophesying, there was a noise, a rattling sound, and the bones came together, bone to bone. [8] I looked, and tendons and flesh appeared on them and skin covered them, but there was no breath in them.

  9. Ezekiel 37:9-10 The Regathering? Then he said to me, "Prophesy to the breath; prophesy, son of man, and say to it, 'This is what the Sovereign Lord says: Come from the four winds, O breath, and breathe into these slain, that they may live.' " [10] So I prophesied as he commanded me, and breath entered them; they came to life and stood up on their feet--a vast army.

  10. Ezekiel 37:11-12 • Then he said to me: "Son of man, these bones are the whole house of Israel. They say, 'Our bones are dried up and our hope is gone; we are cut off.' [12] Therefore prophesy and say to them: 'This is what the Sovereign Lord says: O my people, I am going to open your graves and bring you up from them; I will bring you back to the land of Israel.

  11. Ezekiel 37:21-22 and say to them, 'This is what the Sovereign Lord says: I will take the Israelites out of the nations where they have gone. I will gather them from all around and bring them back into their own land. [22] I will make them one nation in the land, on the mountains of Israel. There will be one king over all of them and they will never again be two nations or be divided into two kingdoms.

  12. 2 Samuel 7:12-13 [To King David] “When your days are over and you rest with your fathers, I will raise up your offspring to succeed you…I will establish the throne of his kingdom forever.” Ezekiel 37:24 “ ‘My servant David will be king over them, and they will all have one shepherd. They will follow my laws and be careful to keep my decrees.’ ” Context: The End of History as we know it.

  13. Luke 21:20-24 “When you see Jerusalem being surrounded by armies, you will know that its desolation is near. [21] Then let those who are in Judea flee to the mountains, let those in the city get out, and let those in the country not enter the city. [22] For this is the time of punishment in fulfillment of all that has been written.”

  14. Luke 21:20-24 [23] “How dreadful it will be in those days for pregnant women and nursing mothers! There will be great distress in the land and wrath against this people. [24] They will fall by the sword and will be taken as prisoners to all the nations.”

  15. Luke 21:20-24 “Jerusalem will be trampled on by the Gentiles until the times of the Gentiles are fulfilled.” Luke 21:25-26 "There will be signs in the sun, moon and stars. On the earth, nations will be in anguish and perplexity at the roaring and tossing of the sea. [26] Men will faint from terror, apprehensive of what is coming on the world…”

  16. Biblical vs. Pseudo Prophecy • Specific, not vague. • Straightforward. • Syntax, Context, Grammar, • Makes a Deliberate Point. • Objective. • IS FULFILLED!

  17. Isaiah 44:6-8 “Thus says the Lord, the King of Israel and his Redeemer, the Lord of hosts: ‘I am the first and I am the last, And there is no God besides Me. [7] 'And who is like Me? Let him proclaim and declare it. And let them declare to them the things that are coming and the events that are going to take place. [8] 'Do not tremble and do not be afraid; Have I not long since announced it to you and declared it? And you are My witnesses.’ ”

  18. Is a One-World Government Plausible? How would someone gain control? Wouldn’t America & others resist?

  19. Globalization:A Peaceful Unification Rev. 17:12-13 “And the ten horns which you saw are ten kings, who have not yet received a kingdom, but they receive authority as kings with the beast for one hour.
