Part IV — Where It Is All Headed
1h 28m
The Book of Daniel contains some of the most precise prophetic predictions in all of Scripture — including an exact timeline for the Messiah's arrival that Daniel wrote six centuries before Jesus was born. It's also one of the most attacked books in the Bible. Critics have argued for two centuries that it must have been written after the events it describes, because no one could actually know the future. But that argument proves too much — it proves exactly what Daniel claims: that the God of Israel knows the end from the beginning.
Last time we mapped the seven judgments of Scripture — from the cross to the Great White Throne. Now we turn to the prophet whose visions form the backbone of all end-times prophecy: Daniel. Understanding Daniel is essential for understanding Revelation — and for understanding the age we're living in.
Now, we're not claiming to be infallible ourselves. But we do claim that every simple statement and event in prophecy that God has given us is absolutely infallible.
We claim—for God and by His authority—that the Bible gives predictions of things to come that are 100 percent correct. Not 80 percent correct, as some modern prophets of current events suggest. The following 110 future prophetic wonders are plainly stated, and we'll deal with them in their proper order of fulfillment as nearly as possible.
