Empires 7, 8, and 9 Coming

In Romans 15:13 we read, "Now may the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace in believing, that you may abound in hope by the power of the Holy Spirit."

This shows us Christians just how dependent we are on the Holy Spirit for our very survival. Even new Christians to the faith have to understand that it's not their power that keeps them as Christians but it's the power of God's Holy Spirit. We can see that in John 15:5, "I am the vine, you are the branches. He who abides in Me, and I in him, bears much fruit; for without Me you can do nothing".

Without Christ we can do nothing but with Christ we can do all things! That verse is found in Philippians 4:13, "I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me."

We can now see that one of the purposes of the Holy Spirit is to empower us to do the will of God. I know some people are thinking I am afraid God will ask me to do something I don't want to do.

According to God's word God's Spirit who is inside of you has that taken care of that problem. In Philippians 2:13 we read, "For it is God who works in you both to will and to do for His good pleasure."

Once you trust God you will discover that there is no greater joy on this planet than when you find yourself doing God's will and it turns out that it was also your will.

Another very important function of the Holy Spirit is to communicate with you that you belong to God and you are "a child of God". The Bible says in Romans 8:16-17, "The Spirit Himself bears witness with our spirit that we are children of God, and if children, then heirs-heirs of God and joint heirs with Christ, if indeed we suffer with Him, that we may also be glorified together."

Empires 7, 8, and 9... on the way.

The last world Empire was Roman. The next may be Roman plus. The one following will be antichrist's. And finally, Christ's.

Where does all that information come from? A new "word" out there in the "prophetic" circles? Speculation, intelligent guessing?

No, it's all tucked away in Scripture waiting to be revealed in a massive way as the times become appropriate.

We reference Daniel the prophet and John the apostle to confirm all details. No other reference is needed. Earlier in his prophecy, we run into a beast with 7 heads and 10 horns. The ten horns stands for the same entity as the ten toes in Daniel. Here is a final Kingdom, ruled by antichrist, and it has ten divisions or perhaps nations.

In chapter 17 we see a woman riding this beast. The woman is said to be "Babylon", so there is no need for further speculation about her identity. For, at the end of the same chapter "Babylon" is said to be the city that reigns over the kings of the earth. Clearly, John heard "Rome" when he heard that. News magazine
