THE GREAT GRAVEN IMAGE

 

The prophecy is given for the good of the person and should be carefully being studied ( Am 3.7, Deut 29.29, Matt 24.15 ). This is the light that shows when and where in time we live ( 2 Pet 1.19, Matt 24.15-20 ).

The Lord uses similarity in visions, or characters ( Os 12.10, Abb 2.2 ); "I spoke to the prophets and visions, and multiplied through the prophets gave parables."

 

God revealed to Nebuchadnezzar in dream events which were to occur in the future, in the form of a giant:

a)  head of gold  (Babylon)

b)  silver chest and hands  (Medo-Persia)

c)  the copper belly and thighs  (Greece)

d)  the iron legs  (Rome)

e)  feet of iron mixed with clay (divided kingdom)

The stone fell from the sky, hit the giant with the feet and broke it into pieces, and the stone became a great mountain and filled the whole earth  ( the coming Kingdom of Christ ) .
