Iron and Clay and the Kingdom of the Beast

Watching scenes of mass rioting in France with only a token resistance (I feel sorry for the police and emergency services sent out there) and the scenes and reports of hundreds of young Muslim men entering the United Kingdom every single day-upon a red carpet laid out by the government-I can’t help being further confirmed in my conviction that the kingdom of “iron and clay” as spoken of in the book of Daniel is upon us. What’s happening is spiritual, not just political.

I might be wrong about all this. However, having watched the world change in relation to Biblical prophecy in the forty five years I’ve been a Bible-believing Christian, it only seems to move in the direction foretold in God’s Word. It seems to me that Hitler would be happy to see the modern-day rise of anti-Semitism, the blame for all world ills being placed on Israelis-who only want to protect themselves from annihilation-and the desire to control thought and speech Western Europe is now displaying. What he wouldn’t agree with is the intentional but unsuccessful mingling of un-mixable races and philosophies.

PHILOSOPHY, NOT RACE, IS THE PROBLEM. It’s not the mixing of skin colors which is the problem-not at all. Skin is skin: it’s all human, and potentially we can all live together perfectly. The problem is the attempted mixing of incompatible philosophies, and the destruction of Judeo-Christian style foundations. How can you have unity with such diverse ideas and philosophies? And one in particular has no intention of compromising. You must, sooner or later, submit to their god and their law-they will not submit to yours.

HUMAN RULE HAS AN END. The book of Daniel foretells a history-long succession of world empires in the form of a statue of a man, with the timeline running from head to feet. These are empires as God sees them, and empires which have directly interacted with and affected the tiny nation of Israel-a nation at the centre of His plan. The final empire, says God’s messenger to Daniel, would be a dangerous amalgamation of peoples groups which will never actually succeed in blending:

“And just as you saw the iron mixed with baked clay, so the people will be a mixture and will not remain united, any more than iron mixes with clay” (Daniel 2:43).

The kingdom would be “partly strong” and yet brittle. Today we see a Europe with nuclear weapons and so the ability to destroy nations, yet without the will to hold their own nations together:

“…this will be a divided kingdom; yet it will have some of the strength of iron in it, even as you saw iron mixed with clay. As the toes were partly iron and partly clay, so this kingdom will be partly strong and partly brittle” (verse 41b and 42).

The iron and clay imagery speaks so clearly of our times in which the wealthy and powerful social alchemists who have trillions of dollars between them but who want us to live more frugally, decide that to save the earth we all must mingle. We must do away with free capitalism and replace it with a domineering globalist socialist state. All that remains is to bring the United States down and then install a shared leadership of elites.

The Bible foretells a council of ten leaders with one supreme leader above them; the man we call Antichrist. “Antichrist” partly because he will be opposed to the Judeo-Christian God and seeks to supplant Him. This leaves one other world religion of our time remaining and probably in the seat of power, courtesy of our politicians and behind-the-scenes elites. These people will come to power suddenly, according to what Biblical Scripture says. Something is going to happen to precipitate a profound change in our leadership structure.

The crown of their motivation is opposition to the tiny nation of Israel. This dovetails perfectly with the concurrent fulfillment of the Biblical story which sees a once-exiled nation of Israelites return to their own land, prosper and grow, but be besieged by enemies plotting its destruction. These enemies, says Scripture written before Christ, will be determined to take Jerusalem from its rightful Jewish occupiers. Everything is almost in place, in my view. Coincidences these may all possibly be, but in my opinion they are too great to ignore.

WHAT TO LOOK FOR NEXT. If these things are not all coincidence, what are we to expect next? I hate to say this but sooner or later the United States will similarly fall to the twisted and Satanic plan of the globalist elites. They almost succeeded under the Democratic party, until Trump came along. This adequately explains the rabid hatred of one man, the lies about him and his supporters, the assassination attempts and the legal attempts to strip him of his freedom and his wealth, when he simply wanted to make his nation great again. Once they’ve succeeded in getting rid of him, and perhaps his successor, the West will be fully on course to becoming the Kingdom of the Beast, prophesied in Revelation and Daniel.

OUT OF ROME

Daniel’s prophecy in his second chapter doesn’t speak of an end of Rome until the rock-that is, Christ-comes to smash the image representing human rule. I can’t understand why the prophecy “experts” of our time have not yet recognized this (they probably don’t want to) but the US was born out of Europe. Both are allied and linked historically, genetically, ideologically, politically, culturally and socially… isn’t it obvious that the US is as much “out of Rome” as Europe is? It was founded and settled initially by Europeans. Therefore its destiny is inextricably linked and going in one direction: the direction of iron and clay.
