There was always a human king and always will be a human king who becomes the horn
False. God does not represents the horn with a nation, empire or human king. He already told us that the horn represent power of whatever is in view. I provided you a Scripture proof. Enough said.
The Word of God Himself tells us that the horns represent (human) kings:-
"And the ten horns out of this kingdom are ten kings that shall arise: and another (king) shall rise after them; and he shall be diverse from the first, and he shall subdue three kings. And he (the king symbolized by the horn)) shall speak words against the Most High, and shall wear out the saints of the Most High, and plot to change times and laws. And they shall be given into his hand until a time and times and one-half time.
But the judgment shall sit, and they shall take away his dominion, to consume and to destroy it unto the end." (Dan 7:24-26).
Here is another biblical lesson for you.
In the Bible, horns signify power (Daniel 8:7), the number 10 signifies its fullness, and they are kings illustrating their rule. Kings do NOT symbolize that they are human princes, presidents, leaders, or prime ministers of any political nation. So pay attention... they are the RULES of the beast through the fullness of the time of the end. They have enmity against Christ and His Saints all over the world, wherever the camps (churches) of the Saints are,, not the political nation of Israel or whatever.
The different countries of the world are not wearing out (causing affliction to) the saints AS PROPHESIED! Rather it is the false christs, false prophets, man of sin, and his minions. Of course, many countries are persecuting Christians somewhere, but that has always been the case. But the Great Tribulation "FOR" the Church/Saints is something far more sinister and dangerous than beatings, killing, etc.
It is a spiritual deception so great that if the days weren't shortened, there would be no flesh left on earth to be saved for the rapture of the church in the end. When Revelation 17 says the
10 horns have received no kingdom yet, it is declaring they have
not come to rule yet, but ONLY AFTER the beast is loosed that he gives his power to them as is illustrated in Revelation.
But if you want to keep looking at political nations or states or countries or MAN, instead of allowing the Bible to interpret itself,
you will never have any understanding of prophecies. Selah!
"Then I lifted up my eyes, and looked. And behold, a ram with two horns stood before the Canal having two horns, and the two horns were high, but one was higher than the other, and the higher came up last."
I see that you have failed to answer my questions earlier about the ram and he-goat. Not surprised.
As I said, the he-goat represents the Kingdom of Satan, with the horns representing his power to rule.
The two horns or power of the Kingdom of Christ, symbolized by the Ram. Those two power represents the power of the Old Testament Congregation of Israel, and the New Testament Congregation of Israel, the church. They are the two congregations representing the Kingdom of the Ram on Earth. So it is not all about Israel, as was the power of the other horn. That is the greater power of the Ram Kingdom, the church. She is greater and come up last after the cross. As it is written:
Haggai 2:9
[9] The glory of this
latter house shall be greater than of the former, saith the LORD of hosts
Deuteronomy 9:13
[13] "Furthermore the LORD spake unto me, saying, I have seen
this people, and, behold, it is a
stiffnecked people:
Let me alone, that I may destroy them, and blot out their name from under heaven: and
I will make of thee a nation mightier and greater than they".
John 14:12
[12]"Verily, verily, I say unto you,
He that believeth on me, the works that I do shall he do also; and
greater works than these shall he do; because I go unto my Father".
The church has greater power, the greater nation, the greater horn that comes up last! Becasue she is filled with Holy Spirit to go into the whole world with such power to save many more people. This is the nation that brings forth fruits. Didn't you read the Scripture?
Matthew 21:42-43 KJV
[42] Jesus saith unto them, Did ye never read in the scriptures, The stone which the
builders rejected, the same is become the head of the corner: this is the Lord's doing, and it is marvellous in our eyes?
[43] Therefore say I unto you,
The kingdom of God shall be taken from you, and
given to a nation bringing forth the fruits thereof.
It is the New Testament Congregation that receive greater power after the Cross to build a church. This is where she bringing forth the fruits.
While blindness has happened to Old Testament Israel, New Testament Israel has grown and brought in countless souls from the whole world to the throne of Grace by the power of the Kingdom.
Selah!
"The ram which you saw having two horns are the kings of Media and Persia. And the shaggy goat is the king of Greece. And the great horn between his eyes is the first king."
This is a
symbolic language like in Revelation. It goes back to the ruler of Persia being those who will rule God's people (the Ram), and at this time the goat will come with choler against him, and smite the ram and brake his two horns, which is
reminiscent of the power of the two witnesses. The Prince of Persia represents the rules in God's congregation that stand against Daniel, who represents God's Chosen. Daniel associates this time of great trouble where the ruler of Persia stands against him as a time when Michael (Christ) will stand up for Him (God's people). He will stand up for those who the Prince of Persia has stood against.
The Word of God Himself tells us that the horns represent (human) kings.
No, He didn't. You are the one who is confused what the "kings" are. You thought they are human kings.
Again, the 10 horns are symbolic and thus illustrating certain characteristics or aspects. They are not actual horns, nor actual physical kings, they merely
represent some aspect of these people. Namely, the horns represent they have been given
power and the symbol of a king "represents" their rule. Q.E.D., power to reign. Likewise with the image and likeness of a beast is symbolic of the wicked ruling power at the time when the spirit of Satan is loosed. Again, it's 10 horns and 10 kings to symbolize power and rule. It doesn't mean the horns signify they are human kings, or the kings symbolize they are powers. Symbols point to something characteristic. The Heads/Horns/Mountains/Kings imagery symbolizes the authority and power to rule this wicked kingdom. vis-a-vis, kings symbolize their rule, horns their power, heads their authority, and mountains their kingdom. You seem to be looking at it as if the horns are actual kings, when the horns signify power and the kings signify rule. As in Daniel gives the image of four great beasts and says they are four kings. It didn't mean the kings were actual beasts, four empires, or four human men, only that beasts symbolized some characteristics of their rule.
I don't expect anyone to understand if they do not have the spirit of Christ (spiritual wisdom) to be able to spiritually discerned what God talked about.
Have a good day! Selah!
