The Image of the Beast

[Ingledsva]

daniel 2:35

the stone = heart

stone is a metaphor.

No it doesn't.

It explains the meanings for us.

It seems that the "stone" from the mountain - is a Kingdom - which breaks into pieces and consumes the rest.

Dan 2:34 Thou sawest till that a stone was cut out without hands, which smote the image upon his feet that were of iron and clay, and brake them to pieces.

Dan 2:39 And after thee shall arise another kingdom inferior to thee, and another third kingdom of brass, which shall bear rule over all the earth.

Dan 2:40 And the fourth kingdom shall be strong as iron: forasmuch as iron breaketh in pieces and subdueth all things: and as iron that breaketh all these, shall it break in pieces and bruise.

Dan 2:44 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 for ever.

Dan 2:45 Forasmuch as thou sawest that the stone was cut out of the mountain without hands, and that it brake in pieces the iron, the brass, the clay, the silver, and the gold; the great God hath made known to the king what shall come to pass hereafter: and the dream is certain, and the interpretation thereof sure.

yep, the kingdom is an everlasting kingdom. that kingdom exists in all those 4

that kingdom is

LOVE

the kingdom of love, the kingdom of heaven, the kingdom of god, comes from within you.

Jeremiah 31:3
The Lord hath appeared of old unto me, saying, Yea, I have loved thee with an everlasting love: therefore with lovingkindness have I drawn thee.

to be lovestruck changes everything.

because love, friendship, is two bodies being of one mind. mencius

1 Peter 3:8
Finally, be ye all of one mind, having compassion one of another, love as brethren, be pitiful, be courteous:

Neither shall they say, Lo here! or, lo there! for, behold, the kingdom of God, because god is love, is within you.


love is a circle whose center is everywhere and whose circumference is no where.


love is the everlasting kingdom

Baloney, it specifically talks about real kingdoms following Nebuchadnezzar's.

Dan 2:37 Thou, O king, art a king of kings: for the God of heaven hath given thee a kingdom, power, and strength, and glory.

Dan 2:39 And after thee shall arise another kingdom inferior to thee, and another third kingdom of brass, which shall bear rule over all the earth.

You are adding things that it doesn't actually say.

Taking verses from everywhere, and saying love is everywhere, and God is love, - does not in any way prove your assertion that this text is about love.

the 4 kingdoms are the same as the four yugas. and i'm not adding anything. the kingdom is everlasting kingdom, meaning it's eternal. an eternal kingdom has no beginning and no ending. everlasting means eternal, infinite, omnipresent, or always. ever implies the same idea; which means it will exist in the other four.

the word ever means eternal, or at all times

the quote was taken from the same library of books. as jesus said, he did not come to suspend the Law but to fulfill it. Love fulfills the Law.

the original law is solely one idea and one idea only. it was known through out the world. known by some as the Law of One

Luke 6:3
And as ye would that men should do to you, do ye also to them likewise.

44 And in the days of these kings(4 kingdom) 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 for ever.

you cannot destroy that which is uncreated.

love endures all things


4 Love is patient, love is kind, it is not envious. Love does not brag, it is not puffed up. 5 It is not rude, it is not self-serving, it is not easily angered or resentful. 6 It is not glad about injustice, but rejoices in the truth. 7 It bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things.

 

[EtuMalku]

Are we talking about Love or Agape?
Love is a survival mechanism of human beings.
Agape is an illusion created by mankind to give himself more meaning than he really has.
