The Final World Ruler

James Rochford

2 Thessalonians 2:4

In Daniel's prophetic vision in chapter seven we get a picture of the antichrist. He is going to come and rule for seven years on earth. During this time he will: be the single world ruler, be a powerful speaker, control the worlds finances, and persecute the people of God. He will gain his power by leading through misinformation and claiming to be God himself. The antichrist can come in any generation and will be identified by the number, "666". Believers can be comforted in knowing that God is ultimately in control and will one day return.

Nebuchadnezzar's Nightmare

Scott Risley

Daniel 2:1-44

King Nebuchadnezzar has a nightmare and none of his astrologers or wise men can tell him what it was or what it meant. Daniel and his friends pray and God gives Daniel insight. Daniel predicts for Nebuchadnezzar the end of his kingdom and the kingdoms that will follow.

Nebuchadnezzar's Dream

Dennis McCallum

Daniel 7:23-24

Nebuchadnezzar has a dream. He is bothered by this dream and asks for all the wise men to come him what it means. There is only one man in all of Babylon with the ability to do that, Daniel.

Tell Us What the Future Holds

Conrad Hilario

Isaiah 41:21-23

King Nebuchadnezzar has a disturbing prophetic dream which his diviners are unable to interpret. In his anger, he orders that all of the wise men in the kingdom be executed. Daniel, one of the wise men, after praying to God for help, receives the interpretation of the king's dream in a vision. The vision pertains to five world empires that would rise and fall throughout history: Babylon, Media-Persia, Greece, Rome, and an unknown fifth kingdom. God ultimately will overthrow all corrupt human kingdoms and set up his own kingdom of peace and justice on earth.\r\n

The Days of Noah

Scott Risley

Matthew 24:37-39

Noah built an ark because God commanded him to do so. Noah and his family floated in the ark as the rest of humanity faded away. God used Noah and his family to rebuild humanity. Noah was faithful to God and he tried to warn the people of his time.

Kingdom Come

Ryan Lowery

Daniel 11

The previous chapters of Daniel culminate to show how the fulfilled prophecy of the past give credit to the prophecy of future end times. Using different passages of the Bible, this teaching gives plausible evidence of the end times. As Christians we can be aware and learn what God predicts for the future from the Bible, while continuing to focus on the importance of loving in the midst of a culture that will be spinning out of control.

The Seventy Weeks

Ryan Lowery

Daniel 9:1-26

Daniel has been a captive of Babylon for many years, when one day while reading the book of Jeremiah he came across an exciting piece of information: the predicted end time of captivity was only a few years away. Immediately in response to this realization Daniel praised God. While Daniel was praying he received an incredible prophecy for the future messiah. Daniel 9 accurately predicts the coming of the Messiah 500 years before the event took place.

Jesus and the End of the World, Part 3

Scott Risley

Luke 21:25-36

Ritualism emphasizes the personal distance between people and God. Gary explores Paul's argument against ritualism within the framework of two main applications: 1) we should not be self-righteous; and 2) since relational closeness with God is possible, we should strive to cultivate a relational closeness with God.

Signs of the End of the Age (Part 2)

Conrad Hilario

Matthew 24:21-30

Jesus shares with his disciples some of the signs of the approaching ?end times.? We discover that many of the signs and circumstances that Jesus describes are coming to pass as we speak. We are called on to make a couple decisions about our lives: 1) In order to be saved, will we accept Jesus' gift of forgiveness? and 2) If we already know Jesus personally, do we believe He is coming back one day? If so, does our life reflect that belief?
