�������� Daniel's Fifth Kingdom

��������������� by Dr. Bertrand Comparet

������������������� It is universally recognized that many of the Bible's

greatest prophecies are found in

������������������� the Book of Daniel. Many of these are phrased in such

obscure language that they

������������������� were hard to understand until their fulfillment made

clear their meaning. That is

�� �����������������exactly what God intended: for He had His angel tell

Daniel, "But thou, 0 Daniel,

������������������� shut up the words, and seal the book, even to the time

of the end ... for the words

������������������� are closed up and sealed till the time of the end. Many

shall be purified, and made

������������������� white, and tried; but the wicked shall do wickedly; and

none of the wicked shall

������������������� understand; but the wise shall understand" (Daniel 12:

4, 9‑10). However, actual

�� �����������������events which have followed through the centuries have

fulfilled these prophecies

������������������� so unmistakably that their meaning is now clear.

������������������� One of these prophecies is accepted by all churches

that I know of, and they have

������������������� agreed upon its meaning for the first 4/5 of it. Yet this

prophecy so clearly sets

������������������� forth the Anglo‑Saxon Israel doctrines that it is hard to

see how the preachers of

������������������� these churches can be blind to it; and this is an especial

challenge to all preachers

������������������� who deny the truth of the Anglo‑Saxon Israel doctrines:

Follow this with me in your

������������������� Bibles, and then let me hear you deny it.

��������������� ����I refer to Nebuchadnezzar's image, which Daniel

explained as a prophecy sent by

������������������� God. This is all in the second chapter of Daniel, You will

remember that in Babylon,

������������������� King Nebuchadnezzar had a dream of such obvious

importance that it greatly

������������������� troubled him: But on waking, he forgot his dream, so he

could not tell it to his wise

������������������� men, to ask their interpretation. Being a typical Oriental

monarch, he found a quick

���������������� ���solution to this puzzle: We read, "And in the second

year of the reign of

������������������� Nebuchadnezzar, Nebuchadnezzar dreamed dreams,

wherewith his spirit was

������������������� troubled, and his sleep broke from him. Then the king

commanded to call the

������������������� magicians, and the astrologers, and the sorcerers, and

the Chaldeans, for to show

������������������� the king his dreams. So they came and stood before the

king. And the king said

������������������� unto them, I have dreamed a dream, and my spirit was

troubled to know the

������������������� dream. Then spoke the Chaldeans to the king in Syriac,

0 king, live forever Tell thy

������������������� servants the dream, and we will show the interpretation.

And the king answered

��� ����������������and said to the Chaldeans, The thing is gone from me: if

ye will not make known

������������������� unto me the dream, with the interpretation thereof, ye

shall be cut in pieces, and

������������������� your houses shall be made a dunghill" (Daniel 2:1‑5).

������������������� This was surely a startlingly unreasonable demand to

make. These were sorcerers,

������������������� old hands at the game of thinking up impressive but

vague answers‑‑vague and

������������������� equivocal enough to let them fit their words into

whatever might happen..an art

������������������� they shared with some of the famous Greek oracles.

But to be required to give an

������������������� answer when you didn't yet know what the question

wasl That was too much to

������������������� expect. They replied, "There is not a man upon the

earth that can show the king's

������������������� matter: therefore, there is no king, lord, nor ruler, that

asked such things of any

������������������� magician, or astrologer or Chaldean. And it is a rare

thing that the king requires,

������������������� and there is none other that can show it before the king,

except the gods, whose

������������������� dwelling is not with flesh. " But this did not pacify the

king, who commanded that

������������������� all the magicians, astrologers and Chaldeans be killed,

because their inability to

������������������� explain his dream exposed them as frauds. Only Daniel

and his Hebrew companions

������������������� escaped this purge, because God gave to Daniel the

power to recount the dream

������������������� itself, as well as to explain it. In Daniel's own words, this

was the dream: "Thou, 0

������������������� king, sawest, and behold a great image. This great

image, whose brightness was

������������������� excellent, stood before thee: and the form thereof was

terrible. This image's head

������������������� was of fine gold, his breast and his arms of silver, his

belly and his thighs of brass,

������������������� his legs of iron, his feet part of iron and part of clay."

Then Daniel went on to

������������������� explain to king Nebuchadnezzar the meaning of this

image: "Thou, 0 king, art a king

������������������� of kings: for the God of heaven has given thee a

kingdom, power, and strength,

������������������� and glory. And wherever the children of men dwell, the

beasts of the field and the

������������������� fowls of the heaven has He given into thine hand, and

has made thee ruler over

������������������� them all. Thou art this head of gold. And after thee shall

arise another kingdom

������������������� inferior to thee, and another kingdom of brass, which

shall bear rule over all the

������������������� earth. And the fourth kingdom shall be strong as iron:

forasmuch as iron breaks in

������������������� pieces and subdues all things: and as iron that breaks

all these, shall it break in

������������������� pieces and bruise. And whereas thou sawest the feet

and toes, part of potter's clay,

������������������� and part of iron, the kingdom shall be divided: but there

shall be in it of the

������������������� strength of the iron, forasmuch as thou sawest the iron

mixed with miry clay. And

������������������� as the toes of the feet were part of iron, and part of clay,

so the kingdom shall be

������������������� partly strong, and partly broken. And whereas thou

sawest iron mingled with miry

������������������� clay, they shall mingle themselves with the seed of

men: but they shall not cleave

������������������� one to another, even as iron is not mixed with clay"

(Daniel 2: 31‑43).

������������������� As I said, the churches are all in agreement that this

image represents the

������������������� Babylonian Succession of Empires.

������������������� The head was Babylon itself, under Nebuchadnezzar,

who brought it to its pinnacle

������������������� of power and wealth. In its day, it was the most

important empire in the then

������������������� known world: western Asia and the lands fronting on

the Mediterranean Sea. It ruled

�������� �����������the entire Fertile Crescent. from the Persian Gulf even

to Egypt. The next

������������������� succeeding empire of comparable power was that of the

Medes and Persians, who

������������������� conquered Babylon about 536 B.C. The kingdom of

Media was absorbed in the rising

������������������� power of Persia even before the conquest of Babylon.

This Persian Empire

������������������� extended from Northwest India and Afghanistan across

the Fertile Crescent, over

������������������� most of Asia Minor (which constitutes modern Turkey),

down through Syria and

������������������� Palestine, and even included Egypt. This was the

empire represented by the "breast

������������������� and arms of silver" in Nebuchadnezzar's dream image.

It was conquered and

������������������� absorbed into the empire of Alexander "the Great," of

Macedon between the years

������������������ 334 and 331 B.C. Alexander became king of Macedonia

in 336 B.C.; by 332 he had

������������������� conquered Asia Minor (modern Turkey), Syria, Palestine

and Egypt; he conquered

������������������� the Tigris‑Euphrates Valleys in 331, swept over Persia,

Bactria (largely the same as

������������������� modern Afghanistan) and into North India. In ten years,

he had built up an empire

�� �����������������covering all the then known civilized world from Greece

eastward to northern

������������������� India. In 323 B.C. he died in drunken debauchery in

Babylon. His huge but

������������������� short‑lived empire was the "belly and thighs of brass"

in Nebuchadnezzar's

������������������� dream‑image.

������������������� Fourth and last came the great empire of Rome,

represented by the legs of iron.

������������������� The city of Rome was founded in 753 B.C., and the

Roman Republic, which began

������������������� its greatness, was established about 500 B.C. Its empire

began with the conquest of

������������������� Macedonia and Egypt, in 168 B.C. Eventually, the

Roman Empire expanded so that it

������������������� ruled Italy, Spain, Gaul (modern France), Macedonia,

Greece, North Africa and

������������������� Egypt, western Asia Minor, Syria, and Palestine; its

frontiers were: the Atlantic

������������������� Ocean, the Irish Sea, the south border of Scotland, the

North Sea, the River Rhine,

������������������� the Danube River, the Black Sea, the Caucasus

Mountains, Armenia, to the middle of

������������������� ancient Babylonia, the Arabian Desert, the Red Sea,

Nubia and the Sahara Desert,

������������������� and the Moroccan mountains. Its outstanding

characteristic was its harsh and cruel

������������������� treatment of its subject peoples: as Daniel said, "and

the fourth kingdom shall be

������������������� strong as iron: for as much as iron breaks in pieces and

subdues all things: and as

������������������� iron that breaks all these, shall it break in pieces and

bruise." Remember there

������������������� were two legs of iron, and so the Roman Empire split

into the Western, or Roman

������������������� Empire, and the Eastern Empire, often called

"Byzantine."

������������������� Likewise, each of these two was an enforced mixture of

different peoples, having

������������������� nothing in common except that they were ruled by the

Roman Army; and when that

������������������� military force failed, they broke up into their original

fragments. As Daniel had

������������������� said, "As the toes of the feet were part of iron and part

of clay, so the kingdom

������������������� shall be partly strong and partly broken. And whereas

thou sawest iron mixed with

������������������� miry clay, they shall mingle themselves with the seed

of men: but they shall not

������������������� leave one to another, even as iron is not mixed with

clay." Up to this point, all the

������������������� churches are with me 100%. Their preachers all agree

that these are the empires

������������������� which Daniel's prophecy foretold, because they fulfill

that prophecy so perfectly.

������������������� Now we come to the place where most of the churches

don't want to recognize

������������������� Daniel as a prophet. Let's continue with what Daniel

said. After concluding his

������������������� description of the image and its interpretation as these

four successive empires, in

������������������� the very next verse, Daniel 2: 44, he says: "And in the

days of these kings shall the

������������������� God of heaven set up a kingdom which shall never be

destroyed: and the kingdom

������������������� shall not be left to other people, but it shall break in

pieces and consume all these

������������������� kingdoms, and it shall stand forever." Now, let's analyze

this. First of all, let us note

������������������� that this fifth kingdom spoken of by Daniel is not like the

first four: they were the

��������������� ����creations of pagan men; but this fifth kingdom shall be

set up by God Himself.

������������������� When shall it come into existence? "In the days of

these kings"‑‑that is, at some

������������������� time during the existence of the four empires of the

Babylonian order. So, let us

������������������� refresh memory as to their dates. Babylon and its

empire came to an end in 536

������������������� B.C., when it was conquered by the Medo‑Persian

Empire; the Medo‑Persian

������������������� Empire came to an end when it was overrun and

conquered by the armies of

������������������� Alexander the Great, 331 B.C. After his death,

Alexander's empire fell apart into

������������������� four parts, as another prophecy of Daniel's had foretold.

Alexander died in 323 B.C.

������������������� These are the first three empires symbolized by

Nebuchadnezzar's dream‑image;

������������������� this leaves only the fourth and last, Imperial Rome.

������������������� The city of Rome was founded in 753 B.C.; the Republic

was established about 500

������������������� B.C.; expansion into an empire began with the conquest

of Macedonia and Egypt,

������������������� 168 B.C. We need not cover in detail the history of the

Roman Empire: enough to

������������������� note that, just as the dream‑image had two legs, the

Roman Empire was divided

������������������� into eastern and western parts: first by emperor

Diocletian, in 283 A.D., and the

������������������� division became permanent at the death of emperor

Theodosius, 395 A.D. The two

������������������� separate empires, the western generally governed from

Rome and always called

������������������� Roman, and the eastern, governed from Constantinople

(the original name of which

������������������� city had been Byzantium), and generally called the

Byzantine Empire, continued for

������������������� some time after their separation.

������������������� The western, or Roman Empire, fought a losing battle

against the ever‑increasing

������������������� pressure of the invading peoples who were the

Israelites, moving from Scythia into

������������������� their new European homes. The Visigoths were an

Israelite people, largely Christian

������������������� by 350 A.D. They were driven west by the pressure of

the invading Huns; they

������������������� entered the Roman Empire in 376 A.D., scoring a

decisive victory over Roman

������������������� armies in 378, so Rome ceded them certain Roman

territories; they invaded Italy in

������������������� 400 A.D., forced Rome to pay ransom in 408 A.D. That

year Rome withdrew its

������������������� armies from Britain to aid in the defense of Rome; but

to no avail, for in 410 A.D.

������������������� the Visigoths captured and looted the City of Rome

itself; in 412 they moved on

������������������into southern France and northern Spain, ruling Spain

until the Moorish conquest in

������������������� 711. In 476 A.D., Odoacer, the general of German

mercenary soldiers in the Roman

������������������� army, rebelled, captured the capital city of the Western

Roman Empire and

������������������� deposed the last emperor, Romulus Augustulus; and

this date, 476 A.D., is accepted

������������������� by historians as marking the end of the Western Roman

Empire.

������������������� Meanwhile, the eastern empire, generally called the

Byzantine Empire with

������������������� Constantinople as its capital, claimed to be ruling even

the Western Roman Empire,

������������������� although this was claim rather than fact except for brief

periods: From 395 A.D.,

������������������� the Western Roman Empire was separate. Enemy

pressures were building up against

������������������� the Eastern, or Byzantine Empire borders, pressures

too strong to be resisted. By

������������������� about 650 A.D., the Moslems had conquered Arabia,

Syria, Palestine, Egypt, North

������������������� Africa and Sicily: The Byzantine Empire was reduced to

Asia Minor and the Balkans.

������������������� Then, in 1074, the Turks captured most of Asia Minor.

Then came enemies from an

������������������� unexpected source: The combined forces of Venice and

the Fourth Crusade

������������������� captured Constantinople in 1204, taking also all the

Balkan territories, and they set

������������������� up the short‑lived Latin Empire of Constantinople. While

the authority of the

������������������� Byzantine Empire was restored in the City of

Constantinople in the 1260s, all the

������������������� Balkan territories were lost: They broke up into many

small independent nations.

��� ����������������(Remember that Daniel said that the toes were part iron

and part clay, and would

������������������� not stick together!) For two centuries more, a mere

shadow of the Byzantine

������������������� Empire continued, consisting of just the City of

Constantinople and its environs,

������������������� until the Turks captured the city in A.D. 1453, ending the

last pretense of the

������������������� existence of this leg of the Roman Empire.

������������������� So the year 1453 marks the end of the four

world‑empires of Nebuchadnezzar's

������������������� dream‑image. Remember now, the words which many

preachers won't face

������������������� because it ruins their doctrines: in Daniel 2: 44, Daniel

said, "In the days of these

�������������� �����kings shall the God of Heaven set up a kingdom which

shall never be destroyed: and

������������������� the kingdom shall not be left to other people, but it shall

break in pieces and

������������������� consume all these kingdoms, and it shall stand forever."

We must find God's own

������������������� kingdom in this world, not in some remote future to

which the preachers would

������������������� like to assign it, but NOW: It must have had its

beginning "in the days of these kings"

����������������� ��‑‑and therefore we must study this period which we

have seen, extends from

������������������� Daniel's own time, about 600 B.C. to not later than 1453

A.D.; for that is the period

������������������� in which the kings of the Babylonian succession of

Empires ruled, as we have just

������������������� seen. Why do the preachers like to ignore this verse of

Daniel's prophecy? Because

������������������� there is a great kingdom which was set up within that

period, and which still

������������������� exists, just as God promised through Daniel that it

would. But it is a nation of

������������������� Anglo‑Saxon Israel: And if they recognize this as a

kingdom which the God of

������������������� Heaven set up, they can no longer deny the truth of the

Anglo‑Saxon Israel

������������������� doctrines. So they would rather try to make a liar of

Daniel than to admit that their

������������������� own doctrines are in error and that God has kept His

promises to His people Israel.

������������������� If it shocks you to think that the nations of Anglo‑Saxon

Germanic and Scandinavian

������������������� Israel today are the Kingdom of God, then prepare to be

shocked, for that is just

������������������� what I am about to prove. The Kingdom of God is the

only everlasting kingdom.

������������������� Psalm 22: 27‑28 says, "All the ends of the world shall

remember and turn unto the

������������������� Lord: and all the kindreds of the nations shall worship

before Thee. For the

������������������� kingdom is the Lord's: and He is the governor among

the nations." Psalm 145: 13‑14,

������������������� says, "Thy kingdom is an everlasting kingdom, and Thy

dominion endureth

������������������� throughout all generations. " Daniel 4: 3 adds, "How

great are His signs, And how

������������������� mighty are His wonders, His kingdom is an everlasting

kingdom, and His dominion is

������������������� from generation to generation. "

������������������� But this Kingdom of God is not just an abstract idea, lost

somewhere among the

������������������� clouds; it is a very real kingdom upon this earth. It has

not been governed as well

������������������� while mere men rule it as it will be when Jesus Christ

returns to be its king;

������������������� nevertheless, it is still the Kingdom of God, here on

earth. Remember how Jesus

������������������� Christ, Himself, in Matthew 21: 43, told the Jewish

usurpers who ruled in Judea,

������������������� "Therefore say I unto you, The Kingdom of God shall be

taken from you, and given

���� ���������������to a nation bringing forth the fruits thereof."

������������������� God had repeatedly promised to establish a

kingdom‑God's own kingdom‑‑in this

������������������� world, and place descendants of King David upon the

throne of God's Kingdom. In 1

������������������� Chronicles 17: 11‑12, 14, God's promise to David was, "I

will raise up thy seed after

������������������� thee, which shall be of thy sons, and I will establish his

kingdom. He shall build Me

������������������� a house, and I will establish his throne forever .. I will

settle him in Mine house

������������������� and in My Kingdom forever: and his throne shall be

established forevermore."

������������������� David believed God's promise, for in 1 Chronicles 28:

4‑5, David said, "Howbeit the

������������������� God of Israel chose me before all the house of my

father to be king over Israel

������������������� forever: for He hath chosen Judah to be the ruler; and

of the House of Judah, the

������������������� house of my father; and among the sons of my father

He liked me to make me king

������������������� over all Israel: And of my sons (for the Lord hath given

me many sons) He hath

������������������� chosen Solomon my son to sit upon THE THRONE OF

THE KINGDOM OF the Lord over

������������������� Israel. "

������������������� This is a very real and substantial kingdom on this

earth. In His famous parable of

������������������� the tares sown among the wheat, in Matthew 13: 38, 41,

Jesus Christ said, "The

������������������� field is the world; the good seed are the children of The

Kingdom: but the tares

������������������� are the children of the wicked one. The Son of man shall

send forth His angels, and

������������������� they shall gather OUT OF HIS KINGDOM all things that

offend, and them that do

������������������� iniquity." Certainly the children of Satan, those who

offend and do iniquity, are not

������������������� in Heaven with God, so that they will yet have to be

gathered out of Heaven: but

������������������� they are still here in this world, living here among the

nations of Anglo‑Saxon,

������������������� Germanic and Scandinavian Israel, for you meet them

and have business dealings

������������������� with them every day: So this is the same Kingdom of

God of which Jesus Christ

������������������� spoke.

������������������� The Bible leaves no doubt that, when Jesus Christ

returns to rule the world, He will

������������������� sit upon the throne of this very same kingdom. Isaiah 9:

7, which all churches

�� �����������������recognize is prophesying of Jesus Christ, says, "Of the

increase of His government

������������������� and peace there shall be no end, upon the throne of

David and upon his Kingdom,

������������������� to order it, and to establish it with judgment and with

justice from henceforth

������������������� even forever. The zeal of the Lord of Hosts will perform

this." Confirming this, in

������������������� the New Testament we find the same thing in Luke 1:

32‑33, "He shall be great, and

���� ���������������shall be called the Son of the Highest: and the Lord God

shall give unto Him the

������������������� throne of his father David: and He shall reign over the

House of Jacob forever;

������������������� and of His kingdom there shall be no end. " But this is

still the same kingdom of

������������������� Israel which God established under King David, a

kingdom of God's saints, who are

������������������� the Children of Israel. Daniel 7: 27 confirms it: "And the

kingdom and dominion, and

����� ��������������the greatness of the kingdom under the whole heaven,

shall be given to the people

������������������� of the saints of the Most High, whose kingdom is an

everlasting kingdom, and all

������������������� dominions shall serve and obey Him."

������������������� So now we know these things: (1) the time within which

God will set up the fifth

������������������� great empire, which is "in the days of these kings" of

the Babylonian series of four

������������������� Gentile empires, between 600 B.C. and 1453 A.D.; (2)

that the kingdom which God

������������������� will set up is an everlasting kingdom‑‑and only the

Kingdom of God is everlasting;

������������������� (3) that it is an Israel kingdom, in fulfillment of God's

promises to David and to

������������������� God's chosen people, Israel.

������������������� For a little foundation information, we must go back

even before 1500 B.C. The

������������������� Israelites were then in Egypt. In Genesis 49: 8‑10 the

throne had been promised to

�� �����������������the Tribe of Judah until Jesus Christ takes the throne.

Judah had twin sons, Pharez

������������������� and Zarah; but Pharez was born before Zarah, so Pharez

inherited the right to the

������������������� throne. Ancient writings record that the descendants of

Zarah were very able

������������������� men‑‑even King Solomon being compared to them in

wisdom. Since they could

������������������� never take the throne in Palestine, where their ability

could be used in governing

�������������� �����the people, a large part of the descendants of Zarah left

Egypt even before the

������������������� general exodus, looking for places where their abilities

could be fully used. They

������������������� migrated northward along the east coast of the

Mediterranean Sea, where they

������������������� settled along the coasts of Asia Minor and in parts of

Greece; they founded the city

������������������� of Troy, and also the city of Miletus. It is accepted

British history that after the fall

���������� ���������of Troy, as described in Homer's great poem, the Iliad,

Brutus the Trojan led a party

������������������� of Trojans to the west, and finally landed in Britain

where they founded the city of

������������������� London. The place where he landed is marked by a

monument.

������������������� The city of Miletus became powerful and famous. Its

coins were stamped with the

������������������� lion of Judah. Milesian mercenary troops were hired by

Egypt as border guards. It

������������������� established several colonies, the most important of

which was in Spain. This

������������������� Milesian colony in Spain became powerful, and an

expedition they sent to Ireland

������������������� captured the whole island. Before that time, there were

several tribal kings in

������������������� various parts of Ireland, but the Milesians united them in

one kingdom, Eochaidh

������������������� the Heremon becoming the first king of Ireland,

somewhat before 600 B.C. The

������������������� Milesian kings ruled Ireland until the overthrow of

Roderick O'Conner, the last

������������������� native Irish king, by the invading Anglo‑Norman armies

under King Henry II of

������������������� England, in 1171 A.D. The Irish of today who have

names beginning with "Mc" or "0"

������������������� are descendants of the Milesians.

������������������� In the early centuries of the Christian Era, Ireland was

known as Scotia, and its

������������������� people as Scots. More and more settlements were

made by them on the northern

������������������� part of the island of Great Britain, until by a little after

500 A.D. they founded a

������������������� separate nation, Scotland. For a time, Ireland was called

Scotia Major and Scotland

������������������� Scotia Minor.

����������� ��������Meanwhile, the raids of the fierce Norse and Danish

Vikings on the east coast of

������������������� England had become so terrible, after withdrawal of the

last of the Roman legions

������������������� in 408 A.D., that the Britons invited settlements along

the Channel coast by the

������������������� Jutes, Angles and Saxons‑‑Jutland being a part of

modern Denmark, the Angles

������������������� coming from what is modern Schleswig in Germany,

and the Saxons being part of

������������������� the people who gave their name to Saxony in Germany.

You will recall that before

������������������� the Israelites left Scythia, two of their tribes were

already known as the Angli (the

������������������� Latin form of "Angles") and the Saxons. So by the year

600, we have Ireland,

������������������� Scotland and England settled by Israelite people. Norse

and Danish Vikings also

������������������� settled areas along the English Channel coast. In my

discussion of Historic Proof of

������������������� Israel's Migration, I have mentioned the proof of the

migration of the Israelites from

������������������� Scythia into Northern and Western Europe, so there can

be no doubt that the

������������������� settlers of the British Isles are Israelites.

����������� ��������However, this period did not bring a consolidation of

them into a single kingdom:

������������������� Only Ireland was united under a single king, while the

island of Great Britain was

������������������� broken into many petty kingdoms, always at war with

each other. We must look to

������������������� a later date to find the consolidation into one kingdom.

������������������� It is well‑established history that Norse Vikings raided

the coasts of Gaul (which is

������������������� modern France) for centuries: even capturing and

looting the city of Paris three

������������������� different times. Finally, in 911 A.D., King Charles III of

France ceded the province

������������������� of Normandy, on the Channel coast, to a Viking Chief,

Rollo, who became the first

������������������� Duke of Normandy; this was done on condition that

Rollo would settle large numbers

������������������� of Norsemen there, to form a buffer against further raids

by Viking chiefs. In fact,

������������������� the word "Norman" is really just a form of "Norseman,"

and shows the racial make‑up

������������������� of its population. From Normandy came Duke William of

Normandy, William the

������������������� Conqueror, in the year 1066 A.D., in a successful

invasion of England. His Norman

������������������� followers were Israelite Norsemen, of the same racial

strain as much of the

������������������� population of England.

������������������� William the Conqueror established the English kingdom

which has continued

��� ����������������without a break since the year 1066 A.D. True, there

have been battles between

������������������� competing claimants to the throne: but the successful

contender never was a

������������������� conqueror setting up a new kingdom‑‑he was always a

claimant to the existing

������������������� throne of England. This kingdom has had an unbroken

existence since the year 1066

������������������� A.D. It is well established historical fact that the Kings of

England (and the Queens,

�������������� �����in the two reigns when there was no King), have all

been descendants of King David

������������������� of Israel. Thus, God's promise in Jeremiah 33: 17 that

David shall never lack a

������������������� descendant to sit upon the throne of Israel, has been

fulfilled.

������������������� But let's get back to Daniel and his five kingdoms. All

the churches agree that

������������������� history has proved the four kingdoms represented by

Nebuchadnezzar's image to be

������������������� Babylon, Medo‑Persia, Alexander's empire, and Rome.

Then Daniel goes on to say, in

������������������� Daniel 2: 44, that "IN THE DAYS OF THESE KINGS"‑‑and

in the preceding verses he

������������������� has been careful to mention only FOUR kingdoms, the

last of which we know to be

������������������� the Roman Empire‑‑"in the days of these kings shall the

God of heaven set up a

������������������� kingdom which shall never be destroyed." Daniel never

speaks of the toes or the

������������������� clay in them as kings or kingdoms.

������������������� The continuity of the Throne of David, through Ireland,

Scotland and England, is

������������������� historically established. Now, what about the time of its

establishment as the

������������������� Kingdom of England? As we saw the final end of the

Roman Empire came in the year

������������������� 1453 A.D. But the present Kingdom of England was

established in the year 1066

������������������� A.D., well within what Daniel calls "the days of these

kings."

��������������� ����All the churches are willing to recognize Daniel as an

inspired prophet through the

������������������� interpretation of the vision of the image as representing

the four successive

������������������� world‑empires. "In the days of these kings" the

Kingdom of England was established

������������������� and it became a world‑empire many times greater than

all the previous empires of

������������������� world history. If this is not the kingdom set up by the

God of heaven Himself, as

������������������� Daniel says, then how did God happen to overlook the

most remarkable kingdom in

������������������� all human history? No, this isn't according to the

accepted doctrines of most

������������������� churches; and they would rather reject the word of God

than admit that any of

������������������� their doctrines might be mistaken. It is a bitter pill for

them to swallow, for it

������������������� proves that we who preach the Anglo Saxon identity

message are right: The God of

������������������� heaven DID set up His kingdom "in the days of these

kings."
