So, @Vambram , 1260 days is a pretty short rule for the AC. It is rare for a world power to climb to prominence in a matter of 3.5 short years, it seems. Technology must be the only way for that to happen, as the AC would make his evil plans known on TV or whatever future technology exists during the Great Tribulation. He might also use tech to enforce his laws and government on everyone.
The days will be shortened , understand? for the elect's sake these days shall be shortened.

Yep. The elect might have less days to spend in Tribulation compared to non-elects. :)

Armageddon is the kings of the earth gathering their armies to make war on the Jesus. But there is a prelude to Armageddon when the kings of the earth, head to Israel to depose the beast-king. That attack on the beast-king will get interrupted by the appearance of the sign of the Son of man in heaven - Jesus, sickle in hand.

Faced by the bigger threat, the kings of the earth are band together, under the leadership of the beast-king, to prepare to make war on Jesus.

Here are two diagrams I made of movements of the armies that will try to make war on Jesus. The first is of the prelude to Armageddon based on Daniel 11:40-44.

The second, which I label as "between the seas" (from Daniel 11:45) is the final stand of the beast-king which will be his end at Armageddon itself. The beast-king will be on the temple mount, when Jesus returns.

What matters and prevails is the Word of GOD, the Word is GOD, GOD Himself, self-executing.
Opinion is good for nothing.

Daniel 2:44 - And
in the days of these KINGS shall the GOD of heaven set up a kingdom (Revelation 11:15-18 combined with Luke 20:35-36) which shall never be destroyed: and the kingdom shall not be left to other people, but it shall BREAK IN PIECES and CONSUME all these kingdoms, and it shall stand for ever.

Get ready

Seek to understand what JESUS said around 2000 years ago: Matthew 24:22 - And except those days should be shortened, there should no flesh be saved: but for the elect's sake those days shall be shortened. Read Hebrews 1:1-3

So, what do you think the kingdoms are?
There will be only and only one satanic and Universal Kingdom - the devilish religious and satanic Kingdom of Antichrist.

Two terrible and satanic Beasts will dominate the Earth-Revelation 13:1-18, and will impose themselves by extreme violence a world government after both establish the satanic Kingdom of Antichrist in the last week of the Devil's world that may start soon, in the days ahead, in fact a satanic religious MONSTER having 7 heads, 10 horns and a TAIL-Isaiah 9:14-16-combined with Revelation 12:3-4 and Revelation 13:v.1-10. Take a look.

Jasmine, see, what you wrote above doesn't fit with the Word of GOD, try to understand the why.

Revelation 16:12-13
The sixth angel poured out his vial upon the great river Euphrates; and the water thereof was dried up, that the way of the KINGS of the EAST might be prepared. 13 And I saw three unclean spirits like frogs(A SATANIC TRINITY)
come out of the mouth of the DRAGON who must be cast down from heaven(Ephesians 1:3-8) to the earth-Revelation 12:7-12 (RED DRAGON(EDDOM)-A JEWISH BEAST-Revelation 13:11), and out of the mouth of the Beast (a religious and satanic Gentile Beast-Revelation 13:1 combined with Revelation 17:15), and out of the mouth of the false prophet (John 5:43-47 combined with Revelation 13:11).
I'm not suggesting anything, of course.

I get that people may have our own interpretation of the passage. But that's besides the point.

The Euphrates River dries up to make a pathway for the armies of the kings of the east. Until that time, the East is separated from Israel the Holy Land by the Euphrates River.

No, dear Alex, they are not.
I don't think the Kings of the East are China, Russia and North Korea either. Though this is not for the purpose of political discussion.

I don't think we can know for sure anyways until it happens. We'll know when that time comes.

Ahh, guys this End Times stuff is a little confusing, so I will be leaving this thread. God bless folks. Just had to throw in BRICS as a potential candidate for the 10 Kingdoms, but we will not know until the Great Tribulation, though, we might be raptured before witnessing the Tribulation, or halfway through, but before the AC takes over.

I have more of a globalist dystopia in mind and think that countries will matter less as we approach the end. Here is the clue to the ten kings might really be. "... a second chart from Goldman that shows the Magnificent Seven have gained 71% while the other 493 stocks have added just 6%." Who has the power, money and data needed? Would John have even a word to describe this other than King? One chart shows how the 'Magnificent 7' have dominated the stock market in 2023
Its only a hypothesis but investing in the right ten kings worldwide sure would have paid off and still would though perhaps after a correction. Also, if you notice in Rev. It says they receive a kingdom. Seems like a country would already have one.

The UN map is very informative though didn't the UK leave the European Union? I kind of thought it would be it's own Union. I suspected East Asia and South Asia to each have their own union, since Asia is such a big continent. I also suspected Russia to have its own union, it would include Eastern Europe. Though I had no idea about Central America. I thought it would have been part of either North America Union or South America Union (or part of it as part of the North American Union and another part of the South America Union). I guess we won't know until that time comes.

Yes. The End Times is a very complex topic, especially there's a lot of dispute about how it's going to happen. I kind of used to be on the side of the pre-trib, but then I don't know.

We could be Raptured before the Triibulation or we could be midway through the Tribulation. However one looks at it, the end is going to happen, same with the Ten kings.

The Euphrates river drying up will effect Turkey,Syria,Iraq and Iran more than any other .They are the four bound to it.

Muslims are told in the Hadith to jihad after a severe three year drought.

It will not rain in the middle east for 3.5 years while the two witnesses are in Jerusalem.Muslims will be more than ready to go to Armegeddon after that three year drought.They will be itching to kill those two witnesses along with all the Jews in Israel.

I do not believe this has been discussed. So I thought I would pose the question that got me thinking.

Daniel and Revelation talks about ten kingdoms. There's been a lot of debate about what the ten kingdoms might be. Is it talking about the whole world? If it is, how could it be with only seven continents? Would some some of the continents like Europe and Asian be broken up?

So what could Daniel and Revelation be referring to when it talks about ten kingdoms in the last days?"

The ten kingdoms refer to apostate Israel (northern 10 tribes aka Ephraim/ Samaria/ 'Israel') or the enemies of Israel as from the Psalm 83 coalition: Edom, Moab, Ammon, Ishmaelites, Tyre, Assyria, Gebal, Amalek, Philistia, Hagrites. Basically, it represents internal and external enemies.

Seven heads refers to external enemies such as the Gog coalition (Meshach, Tubal, Persia, Cush, Put, Gomer, and Beth-Togarmah) and also apostate Israel (again).

This is because there are multiple phases to the Revelation narrative. Both the faithful and unfaithful are present during this narrative (there is no whisked away rapture). For the faithful, God will go forth and defeat the faithful's enemies (which include both external enemies and the unfaithful).

Deut 28:7 “The Lord will cause your enemies who rise against you to be defeated before you. They shall come out against you one way and flee before you seven ways.​

For the unfaithful, God will defeat them and scatter them seven ways.

25“The Lord will cause you to be defeated before your enemies. You shall go out one way against them and flee seven ways before them.​

For example, that is why the four angels bound at the Euphrates (Rev 9:14) come at Israel one way (the east) and then are scattered into seven. These four angels are the Daniel 7 four beasts. Does the Leopard have 1 or 4 heads? At the beginning, it has 1 head, and then at Rev 9:21 when those events are done, it splits into 4 so that they 'flee in seven directions': 1 lion head, 1 bear head, 4 leopard heads, 1 fourth beast head = 7 heads.

When Daniel 7:8 says that there are ten horns (which represents potential ten tribes of apostate Israel or ten external enemies of Israel), it is indicating that the 11th horn, the little horn, has either defeated unfaithful Israel and/ or the external enemies of Israel (because the three horns that are defeated leaves a total of seven horns that can flee).

While I was contemplating the horns, suddenly another horn, a little one, came up among them, and three of the first horns were uprooted before it. This horn had eyes like those of a man and a mouth that spoke words of arrogance.​

What does the Word of GOD say? The Word is GOD, GOD Himself, self-executing, understand?
Daniel 2:28 - There is a God in heaven that revealeth secrets, and maketh known to the king Nebuchadnezzar what shall be in the latter days.

Believe in GOD. If He revealed to Nebuchadnezzar what shall be in the later days, that is in these days, our days, will not GOD reveal the same unto His true servants, yes, true sevants?
Luke 8:18 - Take heed therefore how ye hear: for whosoever hath, to him shall be given; and whosoever hath not, from him shall be taken even that which he seemeth to have.-This message of the Lord will be LITERALLY fulfilled from now on.There shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth-take a look-Matthew 25:30.

No dear Alex, the BRICS will NEVER be what you are imagining it comes to be. The 10 horns -10 kings- from which will rise up the little horn, the eleventh horn, they are not linked with Gentile peoples by no manner of means.

Daniel and Revelation talks about ten kingdoms. There's been a lot of debate about what the ten kingdoms might be. Is it talking about the whole world? If it is, how could it be with only seven continents? Would some some of the continents like Europe and Asian be broken up?

So what could Daniel and Revelation be referring to when it talks about ten kingdoms in the last days?"
The beast in Revelation is described as having seven heads, which are the same heads of the dragon from Revelation 12 but with the crowns on the horns instead of the heads. The heads are those who had power over the Jews and Jerusalem. They are as follows:

1. Babylonians
2. Persians
3. Macedonians
4. Egyptians
5. Seleucids
6. Romans (Ottomans included up until end of World War I in 1917)
7. League of Nations

After World War I, the League of Nations took control of the mandates of Palestine, Syria, and TransJordan. Together, these had ten states within them, just as Decapolis were independent city states without kings during the Roman Empire. Only these had kings or rulers, finally independent of Turkish authority.

(1-5): Syria had the Alawite State, Damascus State, Al Druze State, Aleppo State, and Greater Lebanon. T
6-8): TransJordan had Ajlun, al-Balqa, and Ammon.
(9-10): Palestine had West Bank and Gaza.

After the British gave the Mandate of Palestine over to Israel in 1948, a smaller horn has been rising up. Since 1948, Israel has accrued West Bank, Golan Heights, and Gaza Strip. West Bank belonged to TransJordan, Golan Heights belonged to Syria, and Gaza Strip belonged to Palestine.

I believe we are now at the point where Israel will stop making concessions for peace, but instead will take back these territories and resettle them. This will lead to the armies of Gog coming against Israel in the near future, but God will miraculously deliver them. This will bring Israel into a time of prosperity. At this point, the ten kingdoms will become more readily apparent. That's my interpretation so far.

The ten kingdoms refer to apostate Israel (northern 10 tribes aka Ephraim/ Samaria/ 'Israel'). or the enemies of Israel as from the Psalm 83 coalition: Edom, Moab, Ammon, Ishmaelites, Tyre, Assyria, Gebal, Amalek, Philistia, Hagrites. Basically, it represents internal and external enemies.
Good post. Your message above is partially 100% correct (except the expression "Kingdoms) were is written: "The ten kingdoms refer to apostate Israel (northern 10 tribes aka Ephraim/ Samaria/ 'Israel'). -->the correct is 10 kings instead of kingdoms, according to the translation, but in fact are princes according to their nobility, the nobility of each tribe of Israel-Numbers 17:1-13, they are by allegory the clay:Isaiah 64:8, or dry land: Genesis 1:9-10) of the feet and 10 toes(by allegory the 10 kings) of the Nebuchadnezzar's estatue. Daniel 2:41-45. Take a look.

The rest of the sentence I would say it could be discarded:-->"i.e. "or the enemies of Israel as from the Psalm 83 coalition: Edom, Moab, Ammon, Ishmaelites, Tyre, Assyria, Gebal, Amalek, Philistia, Hagrites. Basically, it represents internal and external enemies".

Seven heads refers to external enemies such as the Gog coalition (Meshach, Tubal, Persia, Cush, Put, Gomer, and Beth-Togarmah) and also apostate Israel (again).
The 7 heads by allegory are 7 mountains-Revelation 17:9, on which the woman sitteth. But Re.17:1 says the woman sitteth upon many waters, and Re.17:15 reveals "The waters...where the harlot sitteth, are peoples, and multitudes, and nations, and tongues.

Many interpret 7 mountains as the 7 hills of the Vatican city, the headquarter of the Roman Catholic Church, but in fact the Roman Catholic Church is placed in the whole world, as is revealed in Revelation 17:15-"The waters...where the harlot sitteth, are peoples, and multitudes, and nations, and tongues,so the 7 hills do not fit as the 7 mountains of Re.17.9,but with 7 Continents:i.e.Europe,and Asia,Africa,Oceania/Australia, North America, Central America and South America, where are placed/situated the peoples, and multitudes, and nations, and tongues OF ALL KIND, and also where the Roman Catholic Church-the woman- sits or are established through her gigantic religious structures, a religious and satanic Gentile MONSTER of 7 heads, ruled and guided by the MAN Beast of sea-the Pope.

When Daniel 7:8 says that there are ten horns (which represents potential ten tribes of apostate Israel or ten external enemies of Israel), it is indicating that the 11th horn, the little horn, has either defeated unfaithful Israel and/ or the external enemies of Israel (because the three horns that are defeated leaves a total of seven horns that can flee).
While I was contemplating the horns, suddenly another horn, a little one, came up among them, and three of the first horns were uprooted before it. This horn had eyes like those of a man and a mouth that spoke words of arrogance.
In fact 10 horns is linked to the Israel, 10 tribes, as you said above and I already commented about. And the eleventh horn rise up from the 10 horns, 10 tribes of Israel, and he may be from the tribe of Dan(Genesis 49:16-17, Serpent), the little horn is the false messiah of the Jews(John 5:43-47 combined with 2Thessalonians 2:3-12, and Revelation 13:11-18. This MAN, man of sin was born decades ago and will manifest himself very soon, as soon be elected the next and LAST Pope.
