@07braves The Vatican is NOT Rome.

And as the body of the beast was like to a leopard, the centre and capital of the Roman empire, under antichrist will be the Grecian empire, denoted by the leopard, of which Constantinople became the capital. Various interpreters explain the whole of this vision by different ways.

Now answer my questions.

[evi410]

@07braves I have already asnwered that it was Rome. Some understand this of the mortal wound, which the idolatry of the Roman empire (signified by the sixth head) received from Constantine; which was, as it were, healed again by Julian the Apostate.

B/c you havne't thought about it, that makes it not true? God is Immutable. I f He did it once, it is not beyond reason that He will do it again.

@evi410 ..hello..we still have to go back to daniel, the 4th beast is the beast that had the 10 horns on it , in which is shown again in its appearance in REV., yet has a wound in REV. so knowing this beast to be the same in daniel as in REV., chapters 11, 12 and 13..again what beast was it in daniel?? it is the roman beast (EMPIRE, KINGDOM), so it is not all the nations combined cont...

[07braves]

@evi410 thats a strange thought, never thought about it...sorry.

[evi410]

@07braves Now you tell me, did God conquer a pagan city on a hill and make it His Own in the OC? Why do you think He wouldn't do the same for the NC?

[evi410]

This 1st beast with 7 heads and 10 horns, is probably the whole company of infidels, enemies and persecutors of the people of God, from the beginning 2 the end of the world. The 7 heads R 7 kings or 7 principal kingdoms, which have/shall exercise, power over the people of God; of these, 5 were then fallen the Egyptian, Assyrian, Chaldean, Persian, and Grecian monarchies: 1 was present the empire of Rome: and the 7th and chiefest was to come the great A/C and his empire.
