Introduction to Bible Prophecy
he prophet Daniel described four world kingdoms reaching down to the second coming of Christ. Daniel 2 gives this panaramic view of world history. By following through this Bible study, you may see a prophetic explanation of each part of the image; head of gold, breast and arms of silver, belly and thighs of brass, and legs of iron, his feet part of iron and part clay. A quick view of prophecy in Daniel and Revelation is revealed in the image below, with explanations to follow.
he chart above is an abbreviated version of prophecy in the important chapters of Daniel and Revelation. (Not every part of this chart will be explained here). The world, according to the Bible, is about to end with the second coming of Christ. The world, even if it doesn't realize it, is moving toward the most stupendous event in human history-Jesus Second Coming! The Lord has given us glimpses of prophecy to lead us and have us be unafraid. We have a more sure word of prophecy, and if we heed it we will understand past events and events about to come upon the world.
eventh-day Adventists take a historicist view of prophecy. We look at current events, and see what fulfillment there is in Scripture. The Reformers also believed in interpreting everything through the prism of Scripture. Almost all the prophecies in the Bible have already come to pass. It is up to the diligent Bible student to study for himself or herself to find out what is Truth! It is our prayer that this page and its links will help you in that study.
aniel was only a teenager when taken into captivity. He was the "prime minister" in Babylon and succeeding kingdoms for over 40 years.
