The little horn is the beast of the sea, who was and is not and will come again. He is the eighth king and is of the seven. This individual will be Nimrod, whose tomb was found  (Gilgamesh) early 2003. Shortly after the tomb was found we went after those imaginary weapons of mass destruction. Nimrod will come again. The thing that hath been is that which shall be and that which is done is that which shall be done and there is no new thing under the sun. Nimrod is the king of Babylon and the Assyrian. No. The little horn is not the antichrist. He is certainly an antichrist. The antichrist is one of the horns of the beast of the earth. He is the rider on the white horse who will be in charge of the UN. He is the prince that shall come and confirm a covenant with many. He will be the 7th king and will give his power to the eighth king, Nimrod.

Dennis, thank you very much for your response. It is quite clear you are such a student of His Word. Unfortunately, I have only studied Daniel approximately 5 1/2 years ago and hope to try and unpack Revelation. But that is another story.    Great questions and if you do not mind, I would like to respond to “they” as well as some of the most difficult verses in Daniel.    I could not unpack so much of Daniel 7,8,9, and 11 UNTIL I went back to chapter 2 and, for the millionth time, attempt to interpret the verses in 2:41-43.    And the only “key” to those verses AND SO MUCH OF DANIEL (those latter chapters), is the interpretation of verse 2:34. When this verse was found to represent the Messiah as the Stone that broke into pieces the TWO ELEMENTS ONLY of iron and clay, (as opposed to what EVERYONE believed to be an “end time” event, the extremely difficult verses in Daniel began to open themselves up.    I will send my response to you tonight. Thank you, Charlie 

Well caught  

And whereas thou sawest iron mixed 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 2:43) [emphasis mine] As far as the feet and toes are concerned, Daniel 2:43 is extraordinary: who are the “they” mingling with the seed of men? I realize the traditional view and a connection with the two legs of iron, representing Rome. This “seed” is also reminiscent of the first prophecy in the Bible: And I will put enmity between thee and the woman, and between thy seed and her seed; it shall bruise thy head, and thou shalt bruise his heel. (Genesis 3:15) 10240 זְרַע (zerǎʿ): n.[masc.]; ≡ DBLHebr 2445, 2446 Str 2234; TWOT 2715—LN 10.29 descendant, offspring, progeny, formally, זְרַע אֲנָשָׁא (zerǎʿ ʾǎnā·šā(ʾ)), the seed of a person (Da 2:43+)[1] The immediate verses following talk about Christ’s return and His kingdom. That is a supernatural event, and I suspect Daniel 2:42-43 also involves the evil supernatural realm, possibly associated with Genesis 6:1-4. This may be connected with the policy mentioned in verse 43, they will mix with one another in marriage; the last two words are literally ‘by the seed of men’ (bizraʿ ʾănāšāʾ), an unusual expression, reminiscent of the prohibition to mix seed in the field (Lev. 19:19). Men devise schemes, but they are unsuccessful.[2] Russia and China have been tinkering with genetics and DNA to create “super soldiers.” Not to be left behind and vulnerable, the US announced their own program to enhance our military. Do not be fooled, it is not solely technology gadgets, but biometric DNA enhancements. The Future US Military 'Super Soldier' May Be Closer Than We Think | Military.com Wherefore I say unto you, All manner of sin and blasphemy shall be forgiven unto men: but the blasphemy against the Holy Ghost shall not be forgiven unto men. (Matthew 12:31) Taking the mark of the Beast is an unforgivable sin; why can this sin not be forgiven, and those who take it are condemned to hell? Who did Christ die on the cross for, humanity. A question was intentionally posed to a top geneticist: “How much can our DNA be changed before we cease to be fully human?” Her response was < 1%. I deem it plausible whatever the M.O.B. turns out to be, it may contain biometric enhancements that alter DNA. None of this is a conspiracy theory anymore. Of course, I do not rule out divisions of cultures, social and geopolitical divisions, and nations that do not mix under an authoritarian regime, as described below. The Roman Empire was characterized by division (it was a divided kingdom) and deterioration (it was partly strong and partly brittle). Though Rome succeeded in conquering the territories that came under its influence, it never could unite the peoples to form a united empire. In that sense the people were a mixture and were not united.[3] With your thoughts and comments, who do you think the “They” are that are mixing with the “seed of men?” (Dan. 2:43) Here is another thought. The whole Tribulation is supernatural and will defy imagination. I am in good company with these speculations about the possibility of the “they.” What about E.T. (spirits of darkness) showing up, claiming they were the ones who seeded life in the universe after the Rapture? Does that seem preposterous? Evolutionary science is now proposing that theory. Humanity has been conditioned for decades for the expectation and arrival of super beings to solve the world’s ills, and one is coming. The Vatican, astronomers, S.E.T.I., CERN, and many more are searching for extraterrestrial life and other dimensions. Is it a coincidence at this moment in history, global governments are now admitting UAPs are real, posing a threat to national security and aviation? After decades of denying and coverups, why soft disclosure now, and all the changes to military S.O.P. policies and reporting requirements? The NOW congressional investigations, funding, and reporting. Below is the first of many reports: Prelimary-Assessment-UAP-20210625.pdf (dni.gov) In Matthew chapter 24 alone, Jesus warns four times for emphasis not to be deceived. This U.F.O. phenomenon reeks of a coming great deception, as does the 1917 Fatima deceptions.     [1] Swanson, James.
