00:00:54.719 --> 00:01:00.320
Yesterday<00:00:55.159><c> we</c><00:00:55.359><c> had</c><00:00:55.600><c> a</c><00:00:55.740><c> look</c><00:00:55.939><c> at</c><00:00:56.380><c> the</c><00:00:56.600><c> vision</c><00:00:56.759><c> of</c><00:00:56.920><c> Daniel</c><00:00:57.259><c> chapter</c><00:00:57.659><c> 2</c><00:00:58.859><c> and</c>

00:01:08.620 --> 00:01:10.379
very<00:01:09.079><c> strongly</c><00:01:09.420><c> is</c><00:01:10.219><c> that</c>

00:01:10.379 --> 00:01:13.439
the<00:01:10.540><c> vision</c><00:01:10.739><c> of</c><00:01:10.859><c> Daniel</c><00:01:11.260><c> chapter</c><00:01:11.620><c> 2</c><00:01:11.879><c> is</c><00:01:12.120><c> a</c><00:01:12.280><c> vision</c><00:01:12.500><c> of</c><00:01:13.159><c> the</c>

00:01:13.439 --> 00:01:15.120
latter<00:01:13.939><c> days.</c>

00:01:15.280 --> 00:01:18.340
And<00:01:15.459><c> whilst</c><00:01:15.620><c> it</c><00:01:15.799><c> is</c><00:01:15.980><c> true</c><00:01:16.280><c> that</c><00:01:16.540><c> the</c><00:01:16.859><c> head,</c><00:01:17.640><c> chest</c><00:01:17.920><c> and</c><00:01:18.140><c> arms,</c>

00:01:18.480 --> 00:01:20.540
belly<00:01:18.700><c> and</c><00:01:18.920><c> thighs</c><00:01:19.180><c> and</c><00:01:19.480><c> legs</c><00:01:19.819><c> have</c><00:01:20.140><c> all</c>

00:01:20.540 --> 00:01:24.540
existed<00:01:21.180><c> independently</c><00:01:22.099><c> over</c><00:01:22.540><c> the</c><00:01:22.719><c> years,</c><00:01:23.599><c> this</c><00:01:23.879><c> image</c><00:01:24.200><c> has</c>

00:01:24.540 --> 00:01:27.099
not<00:01:24.819><c> yet</c><00:01:25.040><c> stood</c><00:01:25.280><c> erect</c><00:01:25.540><c> upon</c><00:01:25.959><c> its</c><00:01:26.319><c> feet.</c>

00:01:27.400 --> 00:01:30.760
It<00:01:27.519><c> was</c><00:01:27.780><c> also</c><00:01:28.180><c> a</c><00:01:28.379><c> dream</c><00:01:28.560><c> that</c><00:01:28.739><c> was</c><00:01:28.900><c> seen</c><00:01:29.140><c> by</c><00:01:29.439><c> Nebuchadnezzar,</c>

00:01:30.980 --> 00:01:33.019
hence<00:01:31.219><c> it</c><00:01:31.439><c> is</c><00:01:31.579><c> a</c><00:01:31.700><c> vision</c><00:01:31.879><c> of</c><00:01:32.099><c> the</c><00:01:32.299><c> kingdom</c><00:01:32.579><c> of</c><00:01:32.799><c> men</c>

00:01:33.019 --> 00:01:36.079
as<00:01:33.359><c> seen</c><00:01:33.560><c> through</c><00:01:34.120><c> man's</c><00:01:35.079><c> eyes.</c>

00:01:36.739 --> 00:01:39.659
Today<00:01:37.099><c> we</c><00:01:37.219><c> are</c><00:01:37.340><c> going</c><00:01:37.519><c> to</c><00:01:37.680><c> come</c><00:01:37.859><c> to</c><00:01:38.019><c> a</c><00:01:38.200><c> chapter</c><00:01:38.579><c> which</c><00:01:39.079><c> is</c><00:01:39.359><c> the</c>

00:01:39.659 --> 00:01:42.420
counterpart<00:01:40.239><c> to</c><00:01:40.599><c> Daniel</c><00:01:40.900><c> chapter</c><00:01:41.239><c> 2.</c>

00:01:42.640 --> 00:01:50.200
And<00:01:42.760><c> despite</c><00:01:43.120><c> what</c><00:01:43.500><c> the</c><00:01:43.780><c> speaker</c><00:01:44.120><c> in</c><00:01:44.280><c> the</c><00:01:44.459><c> third</c><00:01:44.640><c> session</c><00:01:44.980><c> yesterday</c><00:01:45.400><c> morning</c><00:01:45.840><c> said,</c><00:01:46.319><c> and</c><00:01:50.019><c> that's</c>

00:01:50.200 --> 00:01:53.840
not<00:01:50.560><c> doing</c><00:01:50.560><c> Roman</c><00:01:50.840><c> 7,</c><00:01:51.200><c> we're</c><00:01:51.319><c> doing</c><00:01:51.540><c> Daniel</c><00:01:51.959><c> chapter</c><00:01:52.379><c> 7.</c>

00:01:54.599 --> 00:01:57.180
We<00:01:54.840><c> obviously</c><00:01:55.540><c> had</c><00:01:55.659><c> a</c><00:01:55.760><c> very</c><00:01:56.140><c> attentive</c><00:01:56.420><c> audience</c><00:01:56.780><c> yesterday</c>

00:01:57.180 --> 00:01:58.480
because<00:01:57.480><c> I</c><00:01:57.599><c> would</c><00:01:57.780><c> say</c><00:01:57.900><c> just</c><00:01:58.099><c> about</c><00:01:58.280><c> all</c>

00:01:58.480 --> 00:02:01.120
of<00:01:58.579><c> you</c><00:01:58.739><c> have</c><00:01:59.159><c> pointed</c><00:01:59.400><c> that</c><00:01:59.599><c> out</c><00:01:59.739><c> to</c><00:01:59.879><c> me.</c>

00:02:02.540 --> 00:02:04.739
And<00:02:02.659><c> I'd</c><00:02:02.879><c> be</c><00:02:02.980><c> delighted</c><00:02:03.260><c> to</c><00:02:03.459><c> fit</c><00:02:03.540><c> Roman</c><00:02:03.859><c> 7</c><00:02:04.159><c> in</c><00:02:04.400><c> somewhere</c><00:02:04.599><c> if</c>

00:02:04.739 --> 00:02:07.260
we<00:02:04.959><c> can,</c><00:02:05.219><c> but</c><00:02:05.560><c> not</c><00:02:06.319><c> today.</c>

00:02:07.680 --> 00:02:13.439
So<00:02:08.159><c> the</c><00:02:08.620><c> counterpart</c><00:02:09.039><c> then</c><00:02:09.319><c> is</c><00:02:09.580><c> that,</c><00:02:10.400><c> and</c><00:02:10.699><c> I</c><00:02:10.800><c> nearly</c><00:02:11.000><c> said</c><00:02:11.300><c> it,</c><00:02:11.800><c> Daniel</c><00:02:12.280><c> chapter</c><00:02:12.680><c> 7</c>

00:02:13.439 --> 00:02:14.599
is<00:02:13.900><c> the</c><00:02:14.159><c> counterpart</c>

00:02:14.599 --> 00:02:18.680
to<00:02:14.840><c> this,</c><00:02:15.379><c> but</c><00:02:15.560><c> this</c><00:02:15.840><c> is</c><00:02:16.080><c> now</c><00:02:16.340><c> a</c><00:02:16.680><c> dream</c><00:02:16.840><c> that</c><00:02:17.139><c> Daniel</c><00:02:17.560><c> sees.</c>

00:02:18.710 --> 00:02:23.219
And<00:02:19.020><c> he's</c><00:02:19.379><c> going</c><00:02:19.560><c> to</c><00:02:19.759><c> see</c><00:02:19.939><c> these</c><00:02:20.500><c> same</c><00:02:20.939><c> empires</c><00:02:22.379><c> represented</c>

by<00:02:23.860><c> beasts.</c>

00:02:25.520 --> 00:02:28.099
And<00:02:25.699><c> it's</c><00:02:25.939><c> not</c><00:02:26.139><c> going</c><00:02:26.379><c> to</c><00:02:26.620><c> be</c><00:02:26.840><c> just</c><00:02:27.120><c> a</c><00:02:27.319><c> vision</c><00:02:27.500><c> of</c><00:02:27.740><c> the</c><00:02:27.860><c> latter</c>

00:02:28.099 --> 00:02:30.439
days,<00:02:28.699><c> it</c><00:02:28.979><c> will</c><00:02:29.280><c> be</c><00:02:29.560><c> dealing</c><00:02:29.759><c> with</c><00:02:30.039><c> them</c>

00:02:33.219 --> 00:02:37.039
And<00:02:33.360><c> so</c><00:02:33.460><c> that's</c><00:02:33.800><c> the</c><00:02:34.039><c> picture</c><00:02:34.360><c> that</c><00:02:34.539><c> we</c><00:02:34.819><c> have,</c><00:02:35.620><c> Daniel</c><00:02:35.960><c> chapter</c><00:02:36.319><c> 2</c><00:02:36.740><c> and</c>
