Well lets see what the Bible shows us is this entity. We have the following points from Daniel 7 will help us to identify the little horn which grows into the Papal power.
That one is a bit harder, but if you look you find these heads represent kingdoms that persecuted God's people. You've got Egypt, Assyria, Babylon, Medo-Persia and Greece. Five that were in the past when John has this vision, all five of those powers occupied the children of Israel and persecuted them.
Now of the fallen those are all in the past at the time of John writing, and it says five are fallen. It says 'one is', so you are correct on the sixth, that was Rome at John's time, Pagan Rome ruled by the Caesars. And it says the other is not yet come, and we know what came after Pagan Rome, it was the Papacy. That's a religious/political entity, with the power of Rome ruled by the church and it says he's also the eighth. Why? You go to Revelation 13, it says he gets a deadly wound but he comes back again and goes and all the way to the end when Christ comes.
Why not learn how modernist dispensational futurism has been deceived and co-opted by the antichrist of the historic apostate papacy?Why not try a few verses and learn the truth being taught???
That above theory is in itself a theory developed by men, and forced into The Scriptures. It's an idea that is not written which some even like to use to point to the European Union.So much waffle and so little substance. So little understanding by those who pontificate greatly on this subject.
When does the four facetted beast, an amalgamation of the four beasts of Daniel 7:1-12, come into the picture time wise?
The Judgement of the five beasts of Daniel 7:2-12 will occur in our near future, around 20-25 years from now, when Isaiah 24:21-22 takes place, at Armageddon, for the kings of the earth, and at the same time the heavenly hosts who constitute the four independent beasts of Daniel 7:1-12 and the Little Horn, are all judged, and together with the judged kings of the earth, they will be imprisoned in the Bottomless pit for 1,000 years before they are released for the little while period at the end of the seventh age in a vain attempt to overthrow God's Everlasting Kingdom.

Daniel 7 is where Jesus was pulling from when showing Apostle John about the beast kingdom at the end, per Revelation 13:1-2. That is about the "ten horns" which are "ten kings" and the "little horn" that comes up among the ten. Revelation 17 also defines that combo for the end, the ten kings and then the "beast" (king) they give their power to for "one hour" (trib time).
ANY theory about western nations, or Islamic nations, being the final beast, leaves Bible Scripture. The final beast of Daniel 2 is to be feet that have ten toes made up of clay mixed with iron. Iron was the symbol of the old Roman empire. Some believe the iron in the feet of ten toes at the end will be a revived Roman empire, I do not believe that. The Daniel 2 Scripture reveals a final beast that will pull ALL the previous beast systems together on earth into a ONE-WORLD BEAST KINGDOM that will be destroyed "together" when Christ returns to smite that beast upon its feet, and the whole comes tumbling down.Oh Davy, you have not understood what I have written. What I have posted has nothing to do with the Roman Empire. The Roman Empire does not even figure in the Daniel 2 Statue prophecy. If you cannot find what I posted in the scriptures, then that is your problem to deal with and not mine.
That passage in Isaiah 24 is talking about the kings of the earth that are cast into Satan's pit and after a certain time are 'visited'. That is pointing to the wicked kings of the earth cast into Satan's pit prison, with Satan, on the day of Christ's future coming on the last day of this present world.Daniel 7:1-12 describes what would happen from the time of Daniel until the end of this present time when the judgement of the beasts occurs. When the Beasts are judged as also described in Isaiah 24:21-22, they will be imprisoned for many days, i.e., 1,000 years,
Yeah. That is also the time of the latter part of Zechariah 14 when all nations will be required to go up to Jerusalem from year to year to worship The KING, The Lord of hosts.Daniel 7:13-14 describes Christ, as the son of Man, being given dominion over all of the peoples of the earth such that they should worship Him. These 1,000 years of imprisonment requires a 1,000 year gap to be inserted into Daniel 7 before verse 16.
The Daniel 7:20-25 Scripture actually aligns with the Revelation 13:4-8 Scripture about worship of the "dragon" (Satan), and his given power for 42 months and making war on the saints. Then at Rev.13:11 forward, it is about the "another beast" entity that comes working the great signs, wonders, and miracles to deceive the whole world. That will... be Satan himself, on earth, in plain sight, with the image of man that he has always had.Rev 13 corresponds with Daniel 7:20-27
You simply don't know what you are talking about, but try to push a Judaizer viewpoint about yourself as if only Jews can understand God's Word. That is nothing but a false ego trip you are doing.There is so much that you do not understand about the events that must take place and when they will occur that you are not qualified to comment on what others post.
Sometimes it is easier to not comment on what others post because of the rabbit holes that they then try and take you down.
Shalom

Pagan Rome is the one at Johns time and it was followed by Papal Rome, if you lookSo Rome was the 6th and the 7th? That doesn't make much sense. A repeat of essentially the same ruling kingdom works for the 7th and 8th but not 6th and 7th.
The 6th was Rome because it was in power when John wrote of it existing and in a falling phase but the 7th isn't ruling yet, and when it does there will be ten new kings of kingdoms appointed to power and it only lasts 42 months ending at the second coming. We are still waiting for that kingdom to rise.
