ROME THREE STAGES OF DOMINION

• It is a Roman power For it comes out of the
  head of the fourth beast, symbolizing Rome.
• 2. It is a religion-political Roman power For
  it is represented by a horn, as political powers,
  while its character and work show it to be also a
  religious power.
• 3. It is a blasphemous power In that it speaks
  great swelling words against the Most High.
  DANIEL 723, 24. It ruled from 538-1798 BC.

REVELATION 126, 13-16

• And the woman fled into the wilderness, where
  she hath a place prepared of God, that they
  should feed here there a thousand two hundred and
  threescore days. And when the dragon saw that he
  was cast out unto the earth, he persecuted the
  woman which brought forth the man child. And to
  the woman were given two wings of a great eagle,
  that she might fly into the wilderness, into her
  place, where she is nourished for a time, and
  times, and half a time, from the face of the
  serpent. And the serpent cast out of his mouth
  water as a flood after the woman, that he might
  cause her to be carried away of the flood. And
  the earth helped the woman, and the earth opened
  her mouth, and swallowed up the flood which the
  dragon cast out of his mouth.

WHO HAS THE TESTIMONY OF JESUS CHRIST?

• REVELATION 1910
• And I fell at his feet to worship him. And he
  said unto me, See thou do it not I am that
  fellowservant, and of thy brethren that have the
  testimony of Jesus worship God for the
  testimony of Jesus is the spirit of prophecy.
• REVELATION 228, 9
• And when I had heard and seen, I fell down to
  worship before the feet of the angel which shewed
  me these things. Then saith he unto me, See thou
  do it not for I am thy fellowservant, and of thy
  brethren the prophets, and of them which keep the
  sayings of this book worship God.

COMPARISON DANIELS AND REVELATIONS BEASTS

14
REVELATION 132, 5, 9, 10, 11

• And the beast which I saw was like a leopard,
  and his feet were as the feet of a bear, and his
  mouth as the mouth of a lion and the dragon gave
  him his power, and his seat, and great authority.
  And there was given unto him a mouth speaking
  great things and blasphemies and power was given
  unto him to continue forty and two months. He
  that leadeth into captivity shall go into
  captivity he that killeth with the sword must be
  killed with the sword. Here is the patience and
  faith of the saints. And I beheld another beast
  coming up out of the earth and he had two horns
  like a lamb, and he spake as a dragon.
