  A king will be broken without human hand:

  Daniel 8:23 “And in the final part of their kingdom, as the transgressors act to a completion, a fierce-looking king who understands ambiguous sayings will stand up. 24 His power will become great, but not through his own power. He will bring ruin in an extraordinary way, and he will be successful and act effectively. He will bring mighty ones to ruin, also the people made up of the holy ones. 25 And by his cunning he will use deception to succeed; and in his heart he will exalt himself; and during a time of security he will bring many to ruin. He will even stand up against the Prince of princes, but he will be broken without human hand.

  He will be fierce-looking

  He will understand ambiguous talk

  It's others that will make him powerful

  He will act effectively

  He will brutally bring down mighty ones

  He is cunning and arrogant

  He will even stand up against Jesus Christ

  I think we will see him in our lifetime

  Help from God's spirit

  John 3:34 For the one whom God sent speaks the sayings of God, for He does not give the spirit sparingly.

  1 Corinthiens 2:10 For it is to us God has revealed them through his spirit, for the spirit searches into all things, even the deep things of God.

  12 Now we received, not the spirit of the world, but the spirit that is from God, so that we might know the things that have been kindly given us by God.

  13 These things we also speak, not with words taught by human wisdom, but with those taught by the spirit, as we explain spiritual matters with spiritual words.

  Romans 8:5 For those who live according to the flesh set their minds on the things of the flesh, but those who live according to the spirit, on the things of the spirit.

  Real freedom

  John 8:32 and you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free.”

  34 Jesus answered them: “Most truly I say to you, every doer of sin is a slave of sin.

  36 So if the Son sets you free, you will be truly free.

  Romans 6:20 For when you were slaves of sin, you were free as to righteousness. 21 What, then, was the fruit that you used to produce at that time? Things of which you are now ashamed. For the end of those things is death. 22 However, now that you were set free from sin and became slaves to God, you are producing your fruit in the way of holiness, and the end is everlasting life.

  Hebrew 4:15 For we do not have a high priest who cannot sympathize with our weaknesses, but we have one who has been tested in all respects as we have, but without sin. 16 Let us, then, approach the throne of undeserved kindness with freeness of speech, so that we may receive mercy and find undeserved kindness to help us at the right time.

  God's will concerning life on earth:

  Matthew 6:10…Let your will take place, as in heaven, also on earth.

  Isaiah 55:11 So my word that goes out of my mouth will be. It will not return to me without results, But it will certainly accomplish whatever is my delight, And it will have sure success in what I send it to do.

  Genesis 1:26 Then God said: “Let us make man in our image, according to our likeness, and let them have in subjection the fish of the sea and the flying creatures of the heavens and the domestic animals and all the earth and every creeping animal that is moving on the earth.” 27 And God went on to create the man in his image, in God’s image he created him; male and female he created them. 28 Further, God blessed them, and God said to them: “Be fruitful and become many, fill the earth and subdue it, and have in subjection the fish of the sea and the flying creatures of the heavens and every living creature that is moving on the earth.” 29 Then God said: “Here I have given to you every seed-bearing plant that is on the entire earth and every tree with seed-bearing fruit. Let them serve as food for you. 30 And to every wild animal of the earth and to every flying creature of the heavens and to everything moving on the earth in which there is life, I have given all green vegetation for food.” And it was so. 31 After that God saw everything he had made, and look! it was very good. And there was evening and there was morning, a sixth day.

  Nicolaou, yes I believe Genesis is historical. I believe in all the Bible. And if there seem to be contradictions, they surely have their logical explanations. But we have not got knowledge of how to all of that yet.

  Hi Nicolaou, you are welcome to ask questions, maybe I can answer. But basically since I was a child I have been sad that Adam and Eve took the fruit they were explicitly told not to do. That disrupted the expansion of the paradise that Jehovah God created. Everything would have been so good on earth if people had not become disobedient to Jehovah God. Jehovah God made everything so well and nice in the beginning. So I am eagerly waiting for God's original will to take place here on earth. And I want to do my part in contributing that to happen. Maybe that is me in a nutshell.

  Thanks Caleb for your explanation, I see that we have very different approaches to God and the holy scriptures. I don't think I can change your look at the world. So I wish you the best.

  the search feature is not easy to find things so i'll start a new topic.. the july 2022 w had this picture.. .

  note that they say satan and his demons were cast out of heaven, about 1914. their math is getting fuzzier.. and there was a recent topic on here about the 1000 year reign.

  this shows that it starts at armageddon..

  I believe the ousting of Satan from heaven is still a future event. Its too calm still on earth.

  Imagine Jehovah God as a human parent

  James 1:17 Every good gift and every perfect present is from above, coming down from the Father of the celestial lights,

  Romans 5:8 But God recommends his own love to us in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us.

  15…For if by one man’s trespass many died, how much more did the undeserved kindness of God and his free gift by the undeserved kindness of the one man, Jesus Christ, abound to many! 16 For the judgment after one trespass was condemnation, but the gift after many trespasses was a declaration of righteousness.

  Romans 8:32 Since he did not even spare his own Son but handed him over for us all, will he not also, along with him, kindly give us all other things?

  Calab, how can you trust those claims that discredit Daniel as the author of the book of Daniel?

  And besides that, when I read the book of Daniel, I can not think about anything else than that he is the writer of this book. When did you last time read the book of Daniel?

  And may I ask you, how is your relation with Jehovah/Yahweh God?
