 Okay Welcome back everybody to The second hour of PC 308 revelation and Daniel We are currently in Daniel chapter 2 Any questions so far in Daniel chapter 2 What we just explained before the break maybe where we see Daniel Speaking of The coming world empires and not only about the coming world empire But he foretells about the kingdom of God heaven Being established on the earth Where Christ will rule and rain which we understand as As The millennial rule of Christ on the earth Any questions on that let me just say a few more things and then maybe we could take questions now How do we interpret? the timeline of this The historical timeline is already done for us meaning the Babylonian the Meads and the Persians the Greeks the Romans That took care of itself in history meaning they followed in that same sequence And so that has already happened then He then speaks about the feet Which is a mix of iron and clay That means something that was part of the Roman Empire iron is Now intermingling with the rest of Human human human race, but it's loosely held and then comes The tour then are the 10 leaders who are going to emerge Daniel chapter 2 in the days. That's was 44 Well 43 they will Daniel 243 they will mingle with the seed of men, but they will not adhere to one another Now it's it's very loosely held and in the days of these kings when this Empire is there and You have the Toes coming which we later on will understand our 10 leaders emerging from this part of the world But there's this losing loose mix of what used to be part of the fall Roman Empire iron and Clay is all just rest of them people. There's a loose mix there from them come these 10 leaders in The days of these kings God will set up a kingdom Verse 44 the God of heaven will set up a kingdom Which will never be destroyed and it's going to be a kingdom which will overpower all the preceding empires so the question is How do we position this it's in terms of timing? How do we interpret it? So first we ask ourselves this question When Daniel says and verse 44 The God will set up a kingdom should we position it as Jesus ushering in a Spiritual kingdom that is When he came as a man and he said the kingdom of heaven is on earth Or should we position it in the future when Christ comes and sets up a physical literal Millennial kingdom a kingdom or not for a thousand years. How should we position it? so We look back at what Daniel is speaking of he's speaking of earthly Empires literal empires that are ruling on earth and And He's talking about these 10 leaders emerging from what used to be part of It is a mix of the Roman plus the Roman Empire plus people of all other races So He's speaking of a physical in a somewhat physical literal at world empires coming into existence So when you keep that same train of thought that he's talking about literal empires He's not talking about spiritual empires or literal empires therefore When he talks about the God of heaven setting up a kingdom that has to be a literal kingdom Because we're keeping in the same train of thought So it's not talking about the spiritual kingdom that Jesus came to which Jesus did inaugurate when he came As recorded for us in the Gospels But he's talking about a literal kingdom which we understand in Revelation 20 is the Millennial rule and reign of Christ on the earth So there is going to be that literal rain But it will happen When he says when there are when there is this mix of iron clay And then there are these 10 leaders who are emerging from there Then God will set up a kingdom Right. So what I'm trying to say is that kingdom that he's speaking of which God will set up is a literal kingdom Because we're keeping in line with the sequence of thoughts for all the preceding world empires These are literal empires Therefore the last one also should be a literal empire which we know will take place in Revelation 20 the only clue he's giving us is There'll be these 10 leaders emerging at that time Something will happen. This transition will happen. This change will happen So that's an interesting thing for us to start looking at and as we go further in Daniel You know, there'll be more details given to us for us to look for About when this kingdom will be set up and what it will look like and so on. Okay So any questions before we move forward? Okay Our next stop is Daniel chapter 5. So, you know, we are skipping some of the historical records in chapter 3 and 4 and We come now to chapter 5 Now when we come to Daniel chapter 5 time has elapsed So we are still in the Babylonian Empire, but now there is Bell Cesar who's in charge He is the grandson of Nibbikid Nizar So Nibbikid Nizar is gone And you know, the kingdom had changed hands within the Babylonian Empire and now Bell Cesar who is the grandson of Nibbikid Nizar is King or emperor or ruler, you know, he's in charge. That's Daniel chapter 5 and In his time There happened to be a day when you know Bell Cesar the grandson of Nibbikid Nizar was having his party and celebrating and doing all of that and he was actually using the utensils that they had brought from Jerusalem from the temple in Jerusalem and He was you know having his party and he was using all of that There's those consecrated utensils that actually belong to the temple in Jerusalem. He was you know, they were drinking wine and whatever was going on And at that time There is a hand that comes and write something on the wall right so of course Everybody's shocked. What is this? And then somebody remembers saying hey, there's a wise man His name is Daniel He was the one who you know Interpreted your grandfather. I mean so in Daniel 5 they used the word father But that literally is talking about grandfather because in Adamic we are told that they didn't have a specific word for grandfather So it was just a father So so when you when you read in Daniel 5 the word father, it actually means grandfather So your father Nebuchadnezzar grandfather Nebuchadnezzar, you know Daniel served him and Daniel helped him understand his dream so what did you call Daniel and Get Daniel to you know explain to us what all of this means and so we pick up this the incident from there in Daniel chapter 5 you're going to read from verse 17 on to the end of verse 30 because here comes a little addition to What we have just read in chapter 2 so keep in mind chapter 2 is the outline as you progress in the book of Daniel More and more information is being given to all to the outline that we saw in chapter 2 so in Daniel 5 We have a little bit more Information right so let's quickly read that then of 5 starting from verse 17 to verse 30 Could you know we'll just take turns three Each one can read three verses and if you look at it, please Give your gifts or give them to someone else, but I will tell you what the writing means your majesty The most high God gave sovereignty majesty glory and honor to your predecessor Nebuchadnezzar He made him so great that people of all races and nations and language tremble before him in fear He killed those he wanted to kill and spare those he wanted to spare He honored those he wanted to honor and disgrace those he wanted to disgrace first one on But when his heart was lifted up and his foot was hardened So that he dealt proudly he was brought down from his kingly throne and his glory was taken away from him He was driven from among the children of mankind and his mind was made like that of a beast And his spelling was with the wild donkeys Was fed grass like an ox and his body wet was wet with the dew of heaven Until he knew that the most high God rules the kingdom of mankind and sets over it And he will and you his son will says it have not humbled your heart Though you knew all this Thank you. Thank you. West 23 on please somebody Instead you have set yourself up against the Lord of heaven You have the goblets from the temple from his temple brought to you and you and your Nobles your wives and concubines Drunk wine from them you praise the gods of silver and gold of bronze iron wood and stone Which cannot see or hear or understand? But you did not honor the God who holds in his hands and your life and all your ways therefore He sent the hand He said the hand that wrote the inscription Thank you. Thanks three versus please somebody Fingers of the hand was sent from him and this writing was written and this is the inscription that was written many many take care Parsi this is the interpretation of each word God has Numbered your kingdom and finished it take care You have been weighed in the balances and found wanting Thank you 28 to 30 somebody please There's your kingdom has been divided and given to a metis and prescience then Balsasar gave the command and they clothed Daniel and purple and put a chain of gold around his neck and Made a proclamation concerning him that he should be the third ruler of in the kingdom 31 please go ahead that very night Balsasar king of the Chaldeans was slain and Darius the maid received the kingdom being about 62 years old Thank you So so when this handwriting was on the wall, you know, Balsasar sends for Daniel and We read what Daniel said, you know, he basically rebuked Balsasar He said, you know, you knew what God did in your ancestor that is your grandfather Nebuchadnezzar how You know And and we can read about what happened in Nebuchadnezzar how he was driven like an animal and then he was restored and all that so He's basically telling Balsasar you knew what happened But you have not feared God. In fact, you have really Dishonored God you the God of heaven by you know using these utensils that you've taken from his temple And so now God himself has sent this hand to write these words and then Daniel gets the revelation No, you know of what those what that handwriting means You know, it's probably like, you know, I Was gonna say like it's tongues and interpretation something like that where there's something that's written in an unknown Unknown language But there's a meaning that's given that comes by revelation. It's not made up Daniel wasn't making this up, but It was given to him by revelation so he gives a meaning of each word basically saying Balthasar God has found you lacking and Your kingdom is going to be handed over to the Medes and Persian. So Daniel now is see remember In chapter 2 he said The after the head of gold There's going to come another kingdom that is actually weaker than you That is the Babylonian the Babylonians Empire They're actually weaker than you, but they're going to take over they're gonna come in after you that is the Justin arms of silver In chapter 2 he didn't give the name. He didn't mention the name but here in chapter 5 Daniel is mentioning Your kingdom this is in verse 28 He's saying your kingdom is going to be given over to the Medes and the Persians You prophesize that now what is what interesting years That same night This was very quick that same night there was The right uprising The Medes and the Persians were around now. They were a weaker empire, but he prophesied That's the empire that's going to take over from you They come in there the Belchisar is killed and Darius is appointed in his place the meets in person the Meads The Meads have taken over the Meads and the Persians the Meads are a smaller community The Persian are a bigger community The Meads came in took over and then later on the Persians took over so But they're usually clubbed together Later on he They're separate. I mean he speaks of them in subsequent chapters. He speaks of them separately But now they come and they take over and that's the The kingdom represented by silver Okay, so it's a short piece But what I want to point out is now Daniel is specifically saying These people are going to take over and it happened that same night The change happened Say your question, please Thank you, bastard. I'm just kind of curious like you have rightly said The same day Daniel prophesied the same day the Meads and the Persians took over So my question would be is what was the prophecy in a way? Conditioner on who which king will honor god Uh, because in a sense it looks like it could have happened in the time of Nebuchadnezzar, but somehow somehow he learned his lesson and learned to honor god After going into the forest for seven years Then we come down to his grandson Now the grandson's behaves And neglects even what had happened and then we see prophecy taking place in his own time I'm just wondering could it have been was the prophecy conditional on Who was going to dishonor god or? I did just questions that we cannot answer, but we just take it as it is Very very interesting observation very interesting. Um, very good. Um, you know We don't have an answer to that It's a very good observation and it's something to think about right and that And it's quite possible now. We know this is possible when it comes down to our personal lives meaning In our personal lives God gives us a prophecy or he may give us many You know Instructions and prophecies considering our personal lives but at a personal level It is conditional that We walk with god and then Yes, it'll happen or the blessing comes or the answer comes whatever That the unfolding of god's plan is conditional that we walk with him And if he disobeys then you know, we're going to miss out on that and When we when we look at Something bigger meaning now we're talking about empires changing kings changing and What how important is the action of a king? in honoring god or not honoring and that Causing this prophetic word to be fulfilled. That's a very interesting question um You know, and I don't know the answer. I mean Perhaps it could you know, because what I'm thinking is There is this factor of god's timing And there is also this factor of This man never belches are doing what he did. So both these are at work And god has appointed like ax 17 says he appointed the boundaries He appointed the rise and the fall of nations. So there is that timing involved But there is also this behavior actions or behavior of men involved So somehow both these come together and you know, this transition happens But all of what I would say is a very interesting observation definitely And and maybe and that's this is just my guess That maybe you know belches as actions did have something to do With this happening right at that time Perhaps to to a large degree His actions did have something to do. Yeah, but I I can't say it for sure Because also thinking about the timing of god, you know, thank you Anything else any other thoughts here before we move forward. So chapter five was a little short I just wanted to point out that This transition actually happened on that night Kennedy's question Where are we in this arrangement of Daniel? Yes, so I I'm not sure if I understood the question correctly, but Kennedy what we are doing is in chapter two Daniel had said First there was the image of gold the head of gold Then there was another empire who will come He said it's a weaker empire But that empire will take over that was the chest of silver So what we're saying is that transition happens here in chapter five And in chapter five Daniel calls it out. He says it's the Medes and the Persians who are going to take over from you and That very night That's what happened. There was the change So in in the sequence of events the second empire has come into place I hope I answered your question Kennedy. I'm not sure if that's what you were looking for Okay. All right, so Now we go to chapter seven. We are skipping chapter six now Just to point out, you know, I these are in the notes whatever I've shared about chapter five Just just quickly show you so whatever I've said in chapter five It's in the notes so you could read it and it has some additional details in case you're interested right, so the other thing I would point out is That Jeremiah did prophesy something to this effect. He he didn't he didn't specifically mention Meads But he did say that after Nebuchadnezzar the king of Babylon Nations will serve his son and his son's son, that's his grandson and then The time comes So there's a timing involved here. So God has He set the timing of rise and fall of nations. So there's a timing involved and then he says that the kings of this empire Babylon and they will make himself them so that means There's going to be another king that will come and over power Nebuchadnezzar So so Jeremiah prophesied that he foretold that but he didn't mention who it is going to be But he did say, you know Nebuchadnezzar son's son The time comes things will change That's interesting and here Daniel is Take meats and poisons are going to take over and it happened there. Okay So you can read some of that note. Now we're going to go to chapter seven. It is very interesting And if there are no questions, let's go to chapter seven now We are going to read the whole of chapter seven Okay, it's a long chapter and 28 verses But this entire chapter chapter seven is prophetic information And it is so amazing that in this chapter Daniel is speaking Now we said dispensational All right, then we said We're going to give a dispensational interpretation Here is an example He's speaking of the immediate or the near He's also speaking about the distant he's speaking about These sequence of empires that are going to transition in the near future But he's also speaking about a time period way in the future when God sets up his kingdom here or not. It's a dispensational It's a different dispensation a different time period Right. So although It is in one chapter chapter seven Although it is in in one book When we interpret it We are saying we are recognizing Hey, these things belong to this time period And this it's in the same chapter But this part Belongs to another time period In another dispensation And that's how we're interpreting it. That's how we will interpret it. Okay, and it's very obvious when you read it You will see why Okay, so Let's do this again Uh Three verses, please I will take turns. We've got a long chapter to read, but let's go through it. Daniel chapter seven, please in the first year The dessert king of Babylon Daniel had a dream and visions Of his head while on his bed then he wrote down the dream telling the main facts Daniel spoke saying I saw my vision by night and behold the four four winds of heaven were stirring up the great sea And four beasts four great beasts came up from the sea each different from And from the other The first beast was like a lion with eagle wings as I watch its wings Pulled off and it was left standing with its two feet on the ground like a human being and it was given a human mind Then I saw a second beast and it looked like a bear It was growing up on one side and it had three ribs in its mouth between its teeth And heard a voice saying to it get up develop the flesh of the men people Then the third of these strange beasts appeared and it looked like a leopard it had four bird wings on its back It had four heads great at which he was given to its beast Thank you. Verse seven onwards somebody please three verses So verse seven after this I saw in the night visions and behold a fourth beast Terrifying and dreadful and exceedingly strong. It had great It devoured and broken pieces and stamped what was left with its feet It was different from all the beasts that were before it and it had turned on I considered the horns and behold they came up among them another one a little one before which Three of the first Horns were plucked up by the roots and behold in this horn were eyes like the eyes of a man And a mouth speaking great things As I looked thrones were placed and the ancient of days Took his seat his clothing was white as snow and the head of head like pure His throat was fiery flames its wheels were burning fire a stream of fire Issued and came Said I think it's over burning fire. Thank you Rock a stream of the fire issue and came up Before him a thousand thousand served him and 10,000 times 10,000 stood before him the court sat in judgment And the books were opened Thank you. Verse 11 onwards somebody please Then I can't then because Just go ahead brother Roy Abinas Okay, thank you I watched then because of sound of the pompous words Which the horn was speaking I watched till the beast was slain and its body disturbed and given to the burning flame As for the rest of the beast They had their dominion to take taking away and yet their lives were longed for a season and a time I was watching in the in the night visions and behold one like the son of man coming with the clouds of heaven He came to the ancient day And they brought him near before him Then to then to him was given dominion and glory and a kingdom that's all that all People's nations and languages Should serve him his dominion is everlasting dominion Was shall not pass away and his kingdom the one which shall not be destroyed Thank you was 15 onwards somebody I daniel was troubled in spirit And and the visions that passed through my mind disturbed me I approached one of those standing there and asked him The meaning of all this So he told me and gave me the interpretation of these things The four great beasts are four kings that will rise from the earth but But the holy people of the most high will receive the kingdom and will possess it forever Yes, forever Thank you Next reverses, please somebody Then I wish to know the truth about the four beast which was different from all the others Exceedingly dreadful with its with its teeth of iron and its nails of bronze Which devout broken pieces and trampled the residue with its feet And the ten horns that were on its head and the other horn which came up Before which three fell namely that horn which had eyes and a mouth It spoke pompous words whose appearance was greater than his fellows I was watching and the same horn was making war against the saints And prevailing against them Until the ancient of days came And a judgment was made in favor of the saints of the most high And the time came for the saints to possess the kingdom Thank you was 23 onwards somebody please Please continue Sidhan Does he say the fourth beast shall be the fourth kingdom on the earth Which shall be different from all other kingdoms And shall you the whole earth trample it and break it in pieces The ten home are ten things Who shall arise from this kingdom And another shall rise after them He shall be different from the first ones He shall subdue three kings He shall speak pompous words against the most high Shall persecute the saints of the most high And shall intend to change times and No The saints shall be given into his hand For a king for a time and times and half a time Thank you was 26 27 But the courts have visited and they shall take away his dominion To consume and destroy it forever And the kingdom and dominion And the greatness of the kingdoms and of the whole heaven Shall be given to the people the saints of the most high This kingdom is an everlasting kingdom And all dominions shall serve and obey him This is the end of the account As for me Daniel my thoughts greatly troubled me And my confidence changed but I kept the matter in my heart I know thank you So chapter seven Like we said earlier, you know some of the Imagery in Daniel the book of Daniel It's quite Shocking or it's you know, it's it's it's not even Normal kinds of images that we would see so Daniel of course he says, you know This is when he had this vision danis seven verse one and he had recorded it Right, so he's kind of just going back in time saying look I had this vision during belches our stein And this is what I had and I wrote down the facts. I wrote down what I saw and In the first part that is still verse eight He's actually seeing these images And these images are quite shocking because he's seeing the four winds Of heaven now The four winds of heaven are really, you know, many many think about the term the four winds Let's let's just cross reference and be good to um the gospel of mark Me give you the exact verse mark 13 Because jesus explains four winds over there Let me just find that exact verse mark 13 mark 13 27 so Mark chapter 13 verse 27 now jesus talking about the end times again very interesting And then he says, you know, I'll just read verse 26 27. It says mark 13 26 37 Then they will see the son of man coming in the clouds a great part in glory And then he will send his angels And gather together his elect from the four winds So what are the four winds? well He explains from the farthest part of the earth to the farthest part of heaven so the four winds Preferring he just talks about the work of god So when you say the four winds, what are the four winds? the four winds really referring to the work of god that covers all of earth in heaven the farthest part of earth the farthest part of heaven and in this particular context of mark 13 it is that gods elect all of god's people will come together Wherever they are that means whether they're in heaven or whether they're on earth They're all going to come together. They're all going to be gathered together But how are they going to be gathered together the four winds the four winds? That means it's the work of god that It's like sweeping through all of heaven all of earth So keep that in mind mark 13 26 27 go back to daniel 7 so he says I saw the four winds of heaven were stirring upon the great see that means There is the movement of god movement of god all throughout heaven and earth So god is moving throughout heaven. So what is the four winds? It's the move of god the movement of god throughout heaven and earth So the four winds are moving heaven earth and now in verse 2 he's saying it was stirring up the great sea Interesting. What is the great sea in biblical imagery the great sea refers to the nations How do we know that cross reference revelation 17 Um verse 1 and verse 15. So if you go to the revelation 17 um verse 1 John has this vision you see Sorry he says He sees his angel he sees this great harlot who sits upon many waters revelation 17 1 many waters the great sea What is that verse 15 Then he said to me revelation 17 15 the waters which you saw by the harlot sits are peoples multitudes nations and tongues revelation 17 verse 15 so What the four winds is the move of god from all of heaven all of earth through all of heaven through all of earth It's stirring up the great waters back in Daniel 7 to the great sea Are the great waters? What is that? It's symbolic figurative of nations So this this god is stirring up the nations god is doing something Among the nations that is Daniel 7 verse 2 So this is happening across the nations What happens he is seeing a sequence of beasts And that is where it's so strange Daniel 7 right and He's seeing four beasts That are coming in sequence one after the other From the sea meaning from the nations from among the peoples One after the other these four beasts are coming And they're all very different distinct So he begins to describe what he sees Hey, so there is one like a lion and the eagle wings there's a bear and ribs in his mouth and so on and There's a leopard or six and there's a fourth which is very powerful beast and It's very very strong and this fourth beast has 10 horns and verse 8 While he was looking at the 10 horns. He sees another horn little one that emerges And then begins to speak pompous things against the most high So What is it right? So like we said earlier The interpretation is in the chapter itself So He sees now verse 9 on through verse 14. He's seeing something else happening He's seeing heaven opened and he's seeing something happen in heaven So Daniel chapter 7 Verses 2 to 8 is what's happening in the great sea that is on the earth Daniel 7 9 to 14 Is happening heaven and how earth is relating to heaven? Okay, but then let's interpret the images of the beasts. What are those beasts? The interpretation is given for us in chapter 7 and verse 17. So Daniel asks this angel You know, what is this? What is all this about? Well, what are these beasts? And the angel says verse 17 The great beasts that are four kings or kingdoms that are going to arise out of the earth Are among the nations. So the interpretation is there Each of these beasts the lion the bear the leopard and this fourth dreadful beast Each of them are representing a kingdom Now immediately we begin to see a parallel with what he saw in chapter 2 In chapter 2 in this image There was gold silver bronze iron for empires here he's seeing a lion a bear a leopard and a dreadful beast Four beasts. So there's a parallel immediately Now in Daniel 2 he saw 10 toes obviously from the 10 to feed Here he's seeing 10 horns But then there is more information here in chapter 7 which he did not see in chapter 2 Because he sees In addition to the 10 horns He's seeing another little horn coming up So that's additional information And in chapter 2 he just saw a kingdom that came from heaven established on the earth In chapter 7 It's getting into the details. What is this kingdom? You know It's this The ancient of days. It's the son of man And it's the saints of the most high. That's the kingdom Okay, and Then is it going to happen? He sees That when this little horn That comes after the 10 horns come then there's a little horn and this little horn is speaking Pompous things against God That time God is going to come And he's going to set up This kingdom. So there is additional details additional information Building up on the outline given in chapter 2 Being given here in chapter 7 Okay, so we're going to we need to study this a little bit more in detail chapter 7 Uh, you know, I'm looking at the clock and it says only five more minutes So now we will have to get back into chapter 7 next week We want to look at the details given to us, right? But what I want to point it out is within chapter 7 There is the interpretation You read about the beasts Well, then he says hey the beasts are four kingdoms. They're representing four kingdoms. Okay, so like that Uh, we will look at what are the 10 horns? What is that little horn and so on the interpretation is within the chapter itself? Say let's take your question, please Yes, pastor. Thank you. It seems like chapter 7 actually precedes um Preceeds on chapter 5 Yes, yes It was done before it was done in the first year of belch shaza, which was the grandson to nipkot nazar So it looks like a follow-up a sequence After the dream with nipkot nazar, then god now shows him more information about Yes, yes, yeah Yeah, so he begins that in chapter 7 verse 1 he's saying Uh, you know, I had this actually, you know in the first year And I wrote it down. I made a note of it And this is what he's telling us like what he made a note of but you're right, right? So this happened prior to but He's giving it to us. I mean it's written down for us in chapter 7 and it's like god is expanding on What was given in chapter 2 God is expanding on it chapter 7 Then when we get into you know, like when we get into chapter 8 chapter 9 More and more information in subsequent visions Are given to danio that are actually expanding the outline of chapter 2 and Then chapter 11 gives more information about immediate events that we're going to happen And chapter 12 goes way out into the future Again information on that right, but uh, it's very interesting. Let's come back to chapter 7 next week And look at the details right so next week when we start in chapter 7 We won't read the whole chapter because again, it'll take time So we'll just come in and start explaining. Okay So it might be useful If you just kind of quickly review chapter 7 so that you have the you know, what was written there you have it in mind Because we're not going to read the whole chapter. We'll just come in and start explaining What we read today. Okay, so if you can do a little bit of reading before the class it'll just give you a context when we start Explaining pieces of those images But the beautiful thing is the Details are explained within the chapter itself. It's the meaning is there and we can we can we can understand What God has spoken right? Any other questions Shri Kumar, please Yeah, thank you I want to know about the the wind of God Um, I need a little more clarification on that as you said that it is the it is the work of God Is it the same thing what it takes what um, the bible says in exodus 10 13 and 10 19 that uh, the east wind and the west wind when the Moses stretched the staff towards the red sea and also um, you know the 10 19 says that the west wind which took away the locust And so is it the same same can we uh, consider the same thing or is it something else? Thank you sir Good So the answer is yes so when you trace through the bible Like you know, like you pointed out We can actually go from genesis through the bible then we see wind or god breathing or Wind being used the typology of wind We will see it's In some way talking about god doing something the work of god So genesis god breathed into man Like you pointed out in the book of exodus there is the wind of god You know parting the waters there's a wind of god bringing in Quails blowing in the quails and things like that And then when you come into the new testament there is the sound of a rushing mighty wind holy spirit coming So like that, you know when we trace through the bible the wind of god It is a typology of the work of god And then you have something very specific like the four winds And what is interesting is even jesus uses that same terminology And he says look it's the in-gathering is bringing in of all of god's people from heaven and earth, you know So that's uh, we we can uh, it's so it is very good to look at Typology throughout scripture and then we vary with a lot of confidence. We can say this is what It represents So when we say wind Or when we say the four winds We can say with confidence. It's speaking about the work of god. It's speaking about god doing something Because you see throughout the scriptures Yeah, okay Thank you. I know we've gotten into our break Somebody could pray and close and then we will go for a break and I'll meet you in the next class next course Somebody could pray and dismiss us, please Our father and our lord, we bless you and thank you for another class lord Thank you for your son who you've used to Open us up to scripture of the things before Of the things now and of the things that are to come We pray that by the spirit of god as we journey along lord to open of the prophetic words Oh lord that you have given from time before that we may lord position ourselves rightly Lord to be able to meet with you at the end and be part of your kingdom in the end We pray father give us understanding and wisdom to decode these words Oh lord and also to be useful verses to open others to your light and to your truth in your world We bless you father. We give you praise as we go into our next class We ask for wisdom and we pray the lord all that we do will be will be onto your glory And it's a better future to our lives in the name of jesus christ. We have prayed amen Amen Thank you everyone. Thank you We'll take a break and I'll meet you in the other class. Nice to meet all of you again. God bless. Bye now Thank you
