this<00:06:02.079><c> power.</c>

00:06:03.220 --> 00:06:07.079

00:06:08.160 --> 00:06:11.279
It<00:06:09.019><c> was</c><00:06:09.500><c> an</c><00:06:09.800><c> iron</c><00:06:10.199><c> power.</c>

00:06:11.300 --> 00:06:14.860
God<00:06:11.560><c> was</c><00:06:11.899><c> going</c><00:06:12.079><c> to</c><00:06:12.379><c> bring</c><00:06:12.519><c> them</c><00:06:12.899><c> under</c><00:06:13.399><c> a</c><00:06:13.620><c> yoke</c><00:06:13.839><c> of</c><00:06:14.120><c> iron.</c>

00:06:15.100 --> 00:06:19.500
He<00:06:15.259><c> was</c><00:06:15.519><c> going</c><00:06:15.720><c> to</c><00:06:15.980><c> bring</c><00:06:16.120><c> them</c><00:06:16.439><c> under</c><00:06:16.800><c> a</c><00:06:17.120><c> power</c><00:06:17.680><c> whose</c><00:06:18.439><c> heraldic</c><00:06:19.139><c> symbol</c>

00:06:19.500 --> 00:06:21.819

00:06:22.399 --> 00:06:26.019
And<00:06:22.579><c> the</c><00:06:22.819><c> armies</c><00:06:23.060><c> of</c><00:06:23.379><c> Rome</c><00:06:23.819><c> marched</c><00:06:24.620><c> under</c><00:06:25.000><c> the</c><00:06:25.259><c> banner</c><00:06:25.500><c> of</c><00:06:25.800><c> a</c>

00:06:27.519 --> 00:06:31.120

00:06:31.120 --> 00:06:35.019
And<00:06:32.279><c> then</c><00:06:32.720><c> God</c><00:06:33.120><c> says</c><00:06:33.540><c> through</c><00:06:33.800><c> Moses</c><00:06:34.220><c> the</c><00:06:34.459><c> prophet</c>

00:06:41.759 --> 00:06:45.699
An<00:06:41.939><c> obvious</c><00:06:42.399><c> reference</c><00:06:42.899><c> to</c><00:06:43.199><c> the</c><00:06:43.399><c> complete</c><00:06:43.899><c> scattering</c><00:06:44.360><c> of</c><00:06:44.639><c> Israel</c><00:06:45.160><c> in</c>

00:06:45.699 --> 00:06:47.300
the<00:06:45.800><c> days</c><00:06:46.100><c> of</c><00:06:46.360><c> AD</c><00:06:46.680><c> 70</c>

00:06:47.300 --> 00:06:51.420
after<00:06:48.160><c> Rome</c><00:06:48.600><c> had</c><00:06:48.879><c> indeed</c><00:06:49.420><c> brought</c><00:06:49.759><c> them</c><00:06:50.079><c> to</c><00:06:50.420><c> destruction.</c>

00:06:52.379 --> 00:06:55.779
So<00:06:52.620><c> we</c><00:06:52.819><c> have</c><00:06:52.980><c> got</c><00:06:53.120><c> a</c><00:06:53.279><c> very</c><00:06:53.680><c> clear</c><00:06:53.920><c> clue</c><00:06:54.379><c> as</c><00:06:54.720><c> to</c><00:06:54.920><c> the</c><00:06:55.220><c> identity</c>

00:06:55.779 --> 00:06:59.180

00:06:59.180 --> 00:07:02.959
He<00:07:00.019><c> is</c><00:07:00.279><c> the</c><00:07:00.480><c> little</c><00:07:00.839><c> horn</c><00:07:01.139><c> of</c><00:07:01.480><c> the</c><00:07:01.680><c> goat</c><00:07:01.939><c> power.</c>

00:07:03.600 --> 00:07:07.879
Then<00:07:03.779><c> we</c><00:07:03.959><c> notice</c><00:07:04.339><c> in</c><00:07:04.560><c> verse</c><00:07:04.839><c> 24</c><00:07:05.839><c> of</c><00:07:06.620><c> Daniel</c><00:07:07.019><c> Chapter</c><00:07:07.360><c> 8</c>

that<00:07:08.839><c> his</c><00:07:09.220><c> power</c><00:07:09.680><c> shall</c><00:07:10.060><c> be</c><00:07:10.339><c> mighty</c><00:07:10.899><c> but</c><00:07:11.879><c> not</c><00:07:12.180><c> by</c><00:07:12.439><c> his</c><00:07:12.680><c> own</c><00:07:12.920><c> power.</c>

00:07:14.259 --> 00:07:17.399
And<00:07:14.379><c> he</c><00:07:14.660><c> shall</c><00:07:14.899><c> destroy</c><00:07:15.500><c> wonderfully</c><00:07:16.079><c> and</c><00:07:16.579><c> shall</c><00:07:16.899><c> prosper</c>

00:07:19.139 --> 00:07:22.540
He<00:07:19.379><c> shall</c><00:07:19.600><c> destroy</c><00:07:20.100><c> the</c><00:07:20.379><c> mighty</c><00:07:20.639><c> and</c><00:07:20.879><c> the</c><00:07:21.060><c> holy</c><00:07:21.300><c> people.</c>

00:07:22.680 --> 00:07:26.019
Through<00:07:22.980><c> his</c><00:07:23.319><c> policy</c><00:07:23.800><c> he</c><00:07:24.100><c> shall</c><00:07:24.360><c> cause</c><00:07:24.740><c> craft</c><00:07:25.139><c> to</c><00:07:25.480><c> prosper</c><00:07:25.819><c> in</c>

00:07:26.680 --> 00:07:29.980
He<00:07:27.480><c> shall</c><00:07:27.779><c> magnify</c><00:07:28.480><c> himself</c><00:07:29.139><c> in</c><00:07:29.300><c> his</c><00:07:29.540><c> heart.</c>

00:07:30.459 --> 00:07:32.540
By<00:07:30.740><c> peace</c><00:07:31.160><c> he</c><00:07:31.339><c> shall</c><00:07:31.579><c> destroy</c><00:07:32.060><c> many.</c>

00:07:33.019 --> 00:07:35.920
He<00:07:33.259><c> shall</c><00:07:33.480><c> also</c><00:07:33.939><c> stand</c><00:07:34.259><c> up</c><00:07:34.540><c> against</c><00:07:34.819><c> the</c><00:07:35.079><c> prince</c><00:07:35.319><c> of</c><00:07:35.560><c> princes</c>

00:07:35.920 --> 00:07:38.800
and<00:07:36.560><c> be</c><00:07:36.860><c> broken</c><00:07:37.319><c> without</c><00:07:37.819><c> hand.</c>

00:07:39.860 --> 00:07:44.720
And<00:07:40.120><c> obviously</c><00:07:40.899><c> because</c><00:07:41.879><c> the</c><00:07:42.180><c> angel</c><00:07:42.480><c> is</c><00:07:42.759><c> giving</c><00:07:42.959><c> us</c><00:07:43.399><c> an</c><00:07:43.839><c> interpretation</c>

00:07:44.720 --> 00:07:49.639

00:07:52.740 --> 00:07:57.019
Therefore<00:07:53.459><c> this</c><00:07:53.860><c> little</c><00:07:54.300><c> horn</c><00:07:54.480><c> of</c><00:07:54.680><c> the</c><00:07:54.879><c> goat</c><00:07:55.279><c> has</c><00:07:56.240><c> continued</c>

since<00:07:57.480><c> its</c><00:07:57.839><c> inception</c>

00:07:58.439 --> 00:08:02.519
as<00:07:59.579><c> the</c><00:07:59.800><c> king</c><00:08:00.000><c> of</c><00:08:00.259><c> fierce</c><00:08:00.560><c> countenance</c><00:08:01.339><c> who</c><00:08:01.759><c> destroyed</c><00:08:02.319><c> the</c>

00:08:04.319 --> 00:08:08.519
It<00:08:04.519><c> will</c><00:08:04.939><c> continue</c><00:08:05.620><c> says</c><00:08:05.879><c> the</c><00:08:06.160><c> prophet</c><00:08:06.519><c> or</c><00:08:06.939><c> rather</c><00:08:07.259><c> the</c><00:08:07.540><c> angel.</c>

00:08:08.839 --> 00:08:12.959
It<00:08:09.199><c> will</c><00:08:09.560><c> continue</c><00:08:10.279><c> until</c><00:08:11.000><c> it</c><00:08:11.300><c> meets</c><00:08:11.579><c> its</c><00:08:11.939><c> fate</c><00:08:12.160><c> at</c><00:08:12.480><c> the</c><00:08:12.720><c> hands</c>

00:08:12.959 --> 00:08:14.560
of<00:08:13.259><c> the</c><00:08:13.379><c> prince</c><00:08:13.860><c> of</c><00:08:14.120><c> princes</c>

00:08:14.560 --> 00:08:18.439
against<00:08:15.500><c> whom</c><00:08:15.759><c> it</c><00:08:15.959><c> will</c><00:08:16.199><c> stand</c><00:08:16.480><c> up</c><00:08:16.699><c> and</c><00:08:16.939><c> magnify</c><00:08:17.399><c> itself.</c>

00:08:18.910 --> 00:08:22.560
So<00:08:19.339><c> it's</c><00:08:19.660><c> rather</c><00:08:20.079><c> obvious</c><00:08:20.720><c> that</c><00:08:21.339><c> the</c><00:08:21.600><c> little</c><00:08:22.000><c> horn</c><00:08:22.160><c> of</c><00:08:22.360><c> the</c>

00:08:30.699 --> 00:08:33.840
It<00:08:30.879><c> continues</c><00:08:31.699><c> in</c><00:08:32.179><c> unbroken</c><00:08:32.779><c> life.</c>

00:08:35.019 --> 00:08:38.360
It<00:08:35.120><c> is</c><00:08:35.440><c> the</c><00:08:35.740><c> pagan</c><00:08:36.440><c> Roman</c><00:08:37.259><c> power.</c>

00:08:38.919 --> 00:08:42.399
But<00:08:39.159><c> it</c><00:08:39.360><c> is</c><00:08:39.559><c> not</c><00:08:39.899><c> simply</c><00:08:40.320><c> the</c><00:08:40.659><c> pagan</c><00:08:41.100><c> Roman</c><00:08:41.679><c> power,</c><00:08:42.340><c> brothers</c>
