This is the fifth part of a multi-sermon series intended to cover the Book of Daniel. This sermon covers each and every verse of the 10th chapter of the Book of Daniel and the first 25 in the 11th chapter. This sermon includes comments from the late Pastor General of the old Worldwide Church of God, Herbert W. Armstrong, who, often citing the historian Rawlinson, shows how Daniel 11:2-32 were fulfilled in world history. In chapter 10, Dr. Thiel points out the importance of prayer and fasting, as well as why Jesus looks to have been the one who directly communicated with Daniel. Prophecies fulfilled through Alexander the Great's four generals: Ptolemy (Soter) ruling Egypt, part of Syria and Judea; Seleucus (Nicator), ruling Syria, Babylonia and territory east to India; Lysimachus, ruling Asia Minor; and Cassander, ruling Greece and Macedonia were mentioned as well as some related to Antiochus Epiphanes. It is mentioned that there is a duality for prophecies that also have future fulfillment stating in Daniel 11:21 onward (and perhaps as early as verse 20)--and that Jerome points to this as well. The sermon mentioned that the prince who confirms the covenant in Daniel 9:26b-27 is NOT Jesus. Scriptures tying the King of the North to the Beast of Revelation 13 and 17 were mentioned. Also, why Daniel 11:23-24 is consistent with speculation that the USA and its British-descended allies will be attacked under the guise of a NATO exercise was discussed also with a tie into WWI, WWII, and Lamentations 1:1-2. Dr. Thiel warns that most end time Christians do not properly understand nor appreciate important end time prophecies.
