study to show that the STONE of Daniel Chapter 2 HAS Already
been grinding its way through the kingdoms of the world; AND
STILL GRINDING!

Introduction
What is Gods Big Picture; His over all plan
for the world! What is it and where would we find it in scripture? You find it
in Daniel chapter 2. ‘The Head of gold’ etc, and we finally get down to
The Stone that HITS the statue at the FEET, then it grinds the whole statue to
dust! And what is the stone? A SHOW OF HANDS, Who things it represents Christ?
Well I don't think so; now let me tell you why!
Aim
Aim
I hope to show you from scripture that the Stone
of Daniel chapter 2 has already been grinding its way through the
kingdoms of the world, which are each represented by the various
parts of the statue.
To Answer this I need you to jump with me, back and forward through the scripture to try to find what links all this thought together.
First up, God said of Christ in, Psalm 110 verse 1 "The LORD said to my Lord, Sit at My right hand until I place Your enemies as Your footstool". So it is out of character to think that God would send Christ to earth to "grind down" all these kingdoms to dust, in the same way the Stone is described as doing! So lets put that thought on hold for a moment and we‘ll get back to it!
The Covenant With Abram

So lets put that thought on hold for a moment and we‘ll get back to it!
The Covenant With Abram
I did say I need you to jump
around through the scriptures. Let me show you another important passage,
Genesis chapter 15! You can read the whole chapter at your leisure! Basically
The Lord has a chat with Abram. God tells him his family will be as
the stars of heaven. He has a huge block of land for Abram, from
the river of Egypt to the great river, the river Euphrates. But
“The River of Egypt” is a tricky issue for some! Some think that phrase means
“THE Nile River”! BUT there is a river, or a seasonal wadi, just east of the
Suez Canal, and on some maps it is called, “The River of Egypt”!? Look it up in
this link; ‘What
is the river of Egypt in genesis 15’. “Most scholars and historical
geographers identify it as Wadi
el-Arish (the Brook of Egypt)” Then The Lord cuts a
blood covenant with Abram. BUT Check the whole chapter.. The Lord puts NO
conditions on Abram! Nothing like.. BUT you must etc.. or if you fail
etc. So it is what we call an unconditional everlasting covenant!
A Covenant
A Covenant
But what is a
covenant? Well The covenant God made with Abram in Gen 15: 9-18 is described
clearly in the next paragraph below. A covenant usually involves the blood
sacrifices of animals, cut in half. And the two parties to become joined by the
covenant ceremony, would pass between the halved animals carcases. BUT in this
case it was between a man, Abram and God Almighty! In the ancient world it was
a binding contract, punishable by death. We've all seen the old cowboy western
movies; where the hero is a blood brother to some Indian warrior chief and that
sets the theme for some hero villain conflict. Or you can refer to my talk
entitled, “Stanley
and The Blood Covenant”! Where Stanley
ventured into Africa in search of Dr. David Livingston. Stanley was advised to
make a covenant with a powerful chief on the coast before he dared to go
inland, and it's a remarkable story!
Genesis Chapter 15:9-18
Genesis Chapter 15:9-18
I have
given you the whole passage from verses 9 to 18. You can read the whole passage
if you like, but I have underlined the key issues for you.
Genesis Chapter 15:9 “And He said to him, Take Me a heifer of three years old, and a she-goat of three years old, and a ram of three years old, and a turtledove, and a young pigeon. :10 And he took all these to himself, and divided them in the middle, and laid each piece against one another; but he did not divide the birds. :11 And when the birds of prey came down upon the carcasses, Abram drove them away. 12 And it happened as the sun was setting, and a deep sleep fell upon Abram. And, behold, a horror of great darkness fell upon him! :13 And He said to Abram, You must surely know that your seed shall be a stranger in a land not theirs, and shall serve them. And they shall afflict them four hundred years. :14 And also I will judge that nation whom they shall serve. And afterward they shall come out with great substance. :15 And you shall go to your fathers in peace. You shall be buried in a good old age. :16 But in the fourth generation they shall come here again, for the iniquity of the Amorites is not yet full. :17 And it happened, the sun went down, and it was dark and behold, a smoking furnace, and a burning lamp passed between those pieces. [NB: , a smoking furnace, and a burning lamp? That seems like TWO separate beings? Is that perhaps God the Father and God the Son?]. Continuing with verse :18 In the same day Jehovah made a covenant with Abram, saying, I have given this land to your seed, from the river of Egypt to the great river, the river Euphrates,”
As you can see there are NO conditions, so it is an unconditional everlasting covenant!
Gods Covenant Promise to Jacob
Genesis Chapter 15:9 “And He said to him, Take Me a heifer of three years old, and a she-goat of three years old, and a ram of three years old, and a turtledove, and a young pigeon. :10 And he took all these to himself, and divided them in the middle, and laid each piece against one another; but he did not divide the birds. :11 And when the birds of prey came down upon the carcasses, Abram drove them away. 12 And it happened as the sun was setting, and a deep sleep fell upon Abram. And, behold, a horror of great darkness fell upon him! :13 And He said to Abram, You must surely know that your seed shall be a stranger in a land not theirs, and shall serve them. And they shall afflict them four hundred years. :14 And also I will judge that nation whom they shall serve. And afterward they shall come out with great substance. :15 And you shall go to your fathers in peace. You shall be buried in a good old age. :16 But in the fourth generation they shall come here again, for the iniquity of the Amorites is not yet full. :17 And it happened, the sun went down, and it was dark and behold, a smoking furnace, and a burning lamp passed between those pieces. [NB: , a smoking furnace, and a burning lamp? That seems like TWO separate beings? Is that perhaps God the Father and God the Son?]. Continuing with verse :18 In the same day Jehovah made a covenant with Abram, saying, I have given this land to your seed, from the river of Egypt to the great river, the river Euphrates,”
As you can see there are NO conditions, so it is an unconditional everlasting covenant!
Gods Covenant Promise to Jacob
Jumping around in the
scriptures again! Let's look at another passage. This is about Jacob... and God often
refers to the lost 10 tribes of the Northern Kingdom or The House of Israel as
Jacob! And I prefer the KJV because it sounds more ‘gutsy’
Jeremiah 51:19-23 “The portion of Jacob is not like them; for he is the former of all things: and Israel is the rod of his inheritance: the LORD of hosts is his name. :20 Thou art my battle axe and weapons of war: for with thee will I break in pieces the nations, and with thee will I destroy kingdoms; :21 And with thee will I break in pieces the horse and his rider; and with thee will I break in pieces the chariot and his rider; :22 With thee also will I break in pieces man and woman; and with thee will I break in pieces old and young; and with thee will I break in pieces the young man and the maid; :23 I will also break in pieces with thee the shepherd and his flock; and with thee will I break in pieces the husbandman and his yoke of oxen; and with thee will I break in pieces captains and rulers.”
Question: - Are there any conditions in that prophecy? There is Nothing like "But you must etc... or if you do not etc..? So it is an unconditional everlasting promises! Or is it in effect a covenant? God simply says He will use Jacob to clean up the world... regardless of whether Jacob is righteous or not! So who are these kingdoms God is going to SHATTER, and how is Jacob going to be involved? Again hold that thought. Because we know that Daniel saw the statue as representing the progression of the kingdoms of the world from Babylon down through history to the Ten Kingdoms of Europe! BUT when the STONE hits the statue at the feet first, then it works it’s way through the statue, that would have to represent a reverse order of the shattering of the kingdoms of the world; correct?
Who Topples The Antichrist?
Now back in 2020 I published a paper entitled “The One World Government”! From both the Futurist and Historical point of view. A lengthy thing, some 90 pages. So I recently divided it into 12 short papers. One is entitled, "OWG8 HV - Who Are The Saints Who Topple The Antichrist?" And that has created some interest on my Blog.
In that short paper I posed the question where did a lot of the reformers find refuge? It was in Britain. The British were among the first to break from the papal antichrist rule. And every time the antichrist or some other despot lead by the devil tried to enforce its rule on Anglo-Saxon Israel, God had other plans. For example, we have the Spanish Amada and God blew with His wind and drove the Amada anticlockwise around the British Isles and back to Spain. Or we have the Communist France under Napoleon, who planned to invade England; using Hot Air balloons and even a tunnel under the English Channel! And Napoleon came a cropper! Anglo-Saxon Israel also fought the Russians in The Crimean War. In a quick summary who else have the Anglo-Saxons been fighting over the past few centuries?
Starting from Europe we have: -
The Spanish Amada in 1588
The French under Napoleon 1803-15
The Russians in The Crimean War 1853-56
The Dutch of South Africa in the Boer war 1888 - 1902
The Germans in the first and second world wars; 1914-18 and 1939-45
The Italians during the second world war. 1939-45

Back To Daniel Ch 2
Now, jumping through scriptures, in relation to Daniel chapter 2, who do these European kingdoms represent? Bear in mind that the antichrist was prophesied to have "removed three kingdoms by the roots!" So who in prophecy represented these European Kingdoms? They were the Ten Toes of Daniel chapter 2? Do we all agree on that? Therefore the Anglo-Saxon people must prophetically represents the STONE of Daniel chapter 2! And "the STONE hit the statue on the feet", and the feet represented the Kingdoms of Europe! Lets prove this another way. But what else does the STONE do according to scripture and can we see it represented in history?

But what else does the STONE do according to scripture and can we see it represented in history?
The STONE
It also hits the rest of the statue and grinds it to dust! Dan
2:35 “Then the iron, the clay, the bronze, the silver, and the gold
were broken to pieces together. And they became like the chaff of the summer
threshing floors. And the wind carried them away, so that no place was found
for them. And the stone that struck the image became a great mountain and
filled the whole earth.” So the STONE became what; a Kingdom??
And filled the whole earth! Now that is very interesting because if
we go to Daniel chapter 7 verse 18, we read; “:18 But the saints of
the Most High shall take the kingdom and possess the kingdom
forever, even forever and ever.” The question is; as we go into eternity,
even forever and ever; HOW can there possible be two separate
kingdoms if each one eventually, fills or possess the whole earth?? So these two
passages MUST fit like hand in glove! Therefore the STONE must also be
representing the Saints of The Most High! Does that answer the original
question; Who is the STONE?
Also all through Daniel chapter 2 the STONE is referred to as a KINGDOM, It is not personified, so it CANNOT be used as a reference to Christ! Refer Dan 2:35 “And the stone that struck the image became a great mountain and filled the whole earth”, as seen above. And in particular refer; Dan 2:44 “And in the days of these kings, the God of Heaven shall set up a KINGDOM which shall never be destroyed. And the KINGDOM shall not be left to other peoples, but IT shall crush and destroy all these kingdoms, and IT shall stand forever.” That verse is clearly telling us that The STONE is a Kingdom!

The Rest Of The Statue
I
think we can now see the parallel between the STONE and Anglo-Saxon Israel so
far? But lets now go through history along with scriptures to check that our
analogy still holds water. In other words have the Anglo-Saxon people been
involved in wars with the kingdoms represented by the other parts of the statue?
Also these wars may not have happened in chronological order, in the same way
as working upwards through the statue. Such as first the iron, followed by the
bronze, then silver and ending with the gold?
NB: A very important issue at this point, is that the kingdoms of the statue of Daniel chapter 2, only represent the kingdoms in close proximity to the Holy Land, that would have some future influence on the Holy Land. God does not give Daniel any prophetic insight into other world kingdoms such as Russia, India, China, Japan, The Americas, nor even Africa or Egypt for that matter?
So, who were those other kingdoms that the Stone grinds to dust? From Daniel 2 we know they are the Ten Toes; the TEN kingdoms of Europe! Then also we have the Legs of Iron - Rome, the Bell n Thighs of Brass - Greece, then the Breast and Arms of Silver - Medo-Persia? Then finally the Head of Gold - Babylon! But some would say; “All those other kingdoms were well and truly gone by the time the Ten Kingdoms of Europe appeared in history!” Or were they?

Daniel Chapter 11
If we go to Daniel chapter 11 we hear of the King of the
North and the King of the South. Now I have published an article entitled,
"FROM
"The Second Advent - How: When: Where?" Daniel Chapter 11".
It is a reprint of one chapter out of a booklet by A. J. Ferris. I found it was
extremely helpful for understanding history. The King of the North and the King
of the South are so named because of their location in relation to Jerusalem.
Also according to Daniel chapter 7; Dan 7:12 “And the rest of
the beasts, their dominion was taken away. Yet their lives were made longer for
a season and time.” So these beasts or
kingdoms, Greece, Medo-Persia and
Babylon, had their dominion taken away during the time of the Romans.
But after the fall of the Western Roman Empire they had a resurgence, in the
form of the Byzantines, the Arabs and the Turks. “Their lives were prolonged
for a season and time.” And we know all this from history.
Now back to the statue of Daniel chapter 2. The TWO arms signified TWO amalgamated kingdoms, the Meads and the Persians. And they where the ancestors of who? They became the Arabs of the Middle East. And finally we have the head of gold; which refers to Babylon. And history shows us that The “Seljuks” later called the Turks, migrated up the Euphrates and expanded their Empire from the region of Babylon. So if we interpret Daniel chapter 7 in that way; you will see that History has unfolded in the form of; The King of the North is fulfilled by the Turks; and the King of the South is fulfilled by the Arabs. The next question is; Have the Anglo-Saxons been fighting "The King of the North and/or the King of the South'? Well that is a resounding YES! But first lets look at the legs of iron.

Now back to the statue of Daniel chapter 2. The TWO arms signified TWO amalgamated kingdoms, the Meads and the Persians. And they where the ancestors of who? They became the Arabs of the Middle East.

The next question is; Have the Anglo-Saxons been fighting "The King of the North and/or the King of the South'? Well that is a resounding YES! But first lets look at the legs of iron.
Legs Of Iron
Following up through the statue we
come to the legs of iron - Rome? During the time of the "Ten
Kingdoms", the Little Horn was enforcing his authority in the world using
the Ten Kingdoms to maintain his rule. This enforced rule had numerous names,
such as, The Latin Kingdom, the Papal Kingdom or the Hole Roman Empire. So
although the Anglo-Saxon people were not directly involved in the downfall of
the pope, they were involved in numerous wars with Catholic based kingdoms
throughout the world. These were mainly the expansions of the Catholic; Spanish
Empire, French Empire, Portuguese Empire and so forth. I did a Google search
and found this site, List
of wars involving England. And you only need to slide down through that
chart and you will see that England was often at war with various catholic
nations. This all seems like, ‘a dog chasing its tail’? If England was
fighting Spain or France on the continent of Europe, it would be considered as
war with the ‘Ten Toes’! But if she was fighting the Spanish in Mexico or the
French in Canada etc. it would theoretically be fighting the expansion of the
Papal Kingdom, ie. The, ‘Legs of Iron’! And as I said you can work your way
down through that ‘List of Wars’ and find that the Anglo-Saxon people, England
and America, have been fighting the Papal Kingdom or the, ‘Legs of Iron’ for
centuries.
Belly N Thighs Of Brass
Belly N Thighs Of Brass
Now the ‘Belly n Thighs Of Brass’ represents
Greece? Now Greece is a funny one. There is no record of a declared war between
Greece and Modern day Britain? So I did a Google search for; Wars
Between Greece And England. And I found the following: -
“There has never been a formal war between modern Greece and England (or the United Kingdom). Instead, the two nations have a long history as close allies, cooperating during the Greek War of Independence and both World Wars. [1, 2]”
“While they never fought a declared war against each other, British
forces did engage in direct armed conflict with Greek communist resistance
fighters (ELAS) in Athens during December 1944 (the Dekemvriana) as World War II ended. This intervention
aimed to prevent a communist takeover and restore the Greek royal government,
rather than constitute a war against the Greek state. [1, 2]”
“Additionally, Britain engaged in "gunboat diplomacy" and
blockaded the port of Piraeus in 1850 (the Don Pacifico Affair) to pressure the
Greek government over financial and legal disputes, but this also did not lead
to a formal state of war.”
“In modern history, they have generally been allies—fighting together in both World Wars and co-founding NATO. [1]”

Wars Between The Scythians And
Greeks
But here is "a fly in
the ointment" for you! If you go to the Septuagint.. refer Brenton 1
Maccabees 12:6 “Jonathan the high priest, and the elders of the nation,
and the priests, and the other of the Jews, unto the Lacedemonians their
brethren send greeting::7 There were letters sent in times past unto
Onias the high priest from Darius, who reigned then among you, to signify
that ye are our brethren, as the copy here underwritten doth
specify……..:11 We therefore at all times without ceasing, both in our
feasts, and other convenient days, do remember you in the sacrifices which we
offer, and in our prayers, as reason is, and as it becometh us to think upon
our brethren:……:19 And this is the copy of the letters which
Oniares sent. :20 Areus king of the Lacedemonians to Onias the high
priest, greeting: :21 It is found in writing, that the
Lacedemonians and Jews are brethren, and that they are of the
stock of Abraham:” [And the Lacedemonians is
another name for the Spartans!]. The same incident is referred to in “The Antiquities”, Book 13 Ch 5 Par
8! Yet the Jews would have nothing to do with the Samaritans, WHY? Because they
weren’t related!
So, it would appear that the Jews believed that they were related to the Spartans. Therefore, the Spartans must theoretically be descendants of the lost Ten Tribes. And if you examine the New Testament with a careful look at the wording used, it will show you that the Jews knew that "the 12 tribes were scattered abroad", but it would appear that the Jews also knew roughly where they were.
Refer; Stephen a ‘GREEK’ said in Act 7:2 “And he said, Men, brethren, and fathers, hearken; The God of glory appeared unto our father Abraham,…” Identifying himself as an Israelite, otherwise he should have said “Your father Abraham” Paul identifies the Corinthians as Israel by these physical historical events, saying the Corinthians went through these events also. KJV 1Co 10:1 “..brethren, I would not ..ye…be ignorant, how that all our fathers were under the cloud… vs 2 And were all baptized unto Moses … v:3 And did all eat the same spiritual meat; .. v:4 And did all drink the same spiritual drink: for they drank..” KJV 1Co 12:2 “Ye know that ye were Gentiles, carried away unto these dumb idols, even as ye were led”.
Josephus
He was
writing at about the time of 70AD and during the fall of Jerusalem. He says ALL Israel
remained in Media! [Refer e-Sword/Reference Library/Antiquities book 11 chapter
5 verse 2]. “wherefore there are but
two tribes in Asia and Europe subject to the Romans, while the ten tribes
are beyond Euphrates till now, and are an immense multitude, and not to be
estimated by numbers” Conclusion: - At the time of Christ
the “Lost 10 Tribes” or “the dispersed” are already an immense multitude
of people and they have nothing to do with the Jews, and they were
not called Jews. And even today the Jews maintain, “They are STILL LOST”!
But if you go back far enough to when the House Of Israel was in migration across to "the appointed place", (refer 2 Samuel 7:10), back then they had different names. They were called the Scithyans or the Saka amongst other names. And there are some ancient records of the Scithyans fighting the Greeks. So, are the Scithyans the ancestors of the Anglo-Saxons?
Refer Wars Between The Scythians And Greeks.

Refer Wars Between The Scythians And Greeks.
Bosporan Kingdom: The Greek-ruled Bosporan Kingdom in Crimea
frequently fought defensive and offensive wars against neighboring Scythian
tribes during the 4th and 3rd centuries BC to secure agricultural land and
trade routes.
Alexander the Great (329 BC): Alexander fought Central Asian nomadic Saka tribes (closely related to the western Scythians) at the Battle of Jaxartes, using catapults across the river to successfully disperse the horse archers. [1, 2]
So without getting into a lengthy study it would appear that the Greeks have in ancient times been fighting the Scithyans; who were the ancient ancestors of the Anglo-Saxons? And we know from Greek history that within Greece there was a lot of in-house fighting. Therefore the ancestors of the Anglo-Saxon people could have been doing Gods clean up work amongst the Greeks from as early as say 300 BC.
The Arms Of Silver

The Arms Of Silver
Now "the arms of silver", which equates to the king of the South and
we know them as the Arabs. The Anglo-Saxons fought the Arabs from as early as the
crusades through to Gordon during the era of the Siege of Khartoum 1884-85. For
more details refer Anglo-Arab Wars.
Anglo-Arab Wars
Anglo-Arab Wars
The
term "Anglo-Arab Wars"
does not refer to a single conflict, but rather to several historical periods
where British and Arab forces fought either as allies against the Ottoman
Empire or against each other during the eras of colonial rule, mandates, and
post-colonial disputes in the Middle East. [1, 2, 3, 4]
Eventually in the 1914-18 the Arabs revolted and joined the British to
push the Turks out of the holy land. Refer to the 1962 classic movie "Laurence
of Arabia". But even to this present day the Middle East is still a
hot bed of freedom fighters, terrorists and radicals, all with the aim to set
themselves free from “infidel rule”! So it would appear that God still has a
lot of work to be done in that region.
The Head Of Gold
Finally "the head of gold Babylon", or the
king of the north, and we know them as the Turks. You can go to numerous web
sites to see where the Anglo-Saxons, (the British), have been at war with the
Ottoman Empire. A good site for a start is, “List
of wars involving the Ottoman Empire - Wikipedia”. Others I have found
were, Anglo-Turkish War (1807–1809), Greek War of
Independence 1821-32, Anglo-Egyptian War 1882, Wars
between the British and Turks. And the failed Gallipoli Campaign
(1915). Briefly I found this
information: -
“In the 1800s, Britain did not directly colonize or rule the heart of the Middle East, but it heavily pressured the ruling Ottoman Empire to adopt religious freedom and legal equality for non-Muslim minorities as part of its diplomatic strategy to maintain regional influence and block Russian expansion. [1, 2, 3]”
British Diplomatic Pressure and Reforms
“In the 1800s, Britain did not directly colonize or rule the heart of the Middle East, but it heavily pressured the ruling Ottoman Empire to adopt religious freedom and legal equality for non-Muslim minorities as part of its diplomatic strategy to maintain regional influence and block Russian expansion. [1, 2, 3]”
British Diplomatic Pressure and Reforms
The Tanzimat Era: British
ambassadors, most notably Lord Stratford Canning in Constantinople during the
1840s and 1850s, pushed the Ottoman government to modernize and protect
religious minorities. [1, 2]
Edict of 1856 (Hatt-ı Hümayun): Prompted largely by British and French leverage at the end of the Crimean War, the Ottoman Sultan issued this decree. It promised complete religious freedom, equality in state employment, access to education, and the abolition of discriminatory poll taxes for non-Muslims. [1, 2, 3]
Motivations: Britain's enforcement was geopolitical rather than purely humanitarian. It aimed to stabilize the weakening Ottoman Empire ("the Eastern Question") and deny Russia a pretext to invade under the guise of protecting Orthodox Christians. [1, 2]

Limits and Local Impact
Uneven Enforcement: Local Muslim
populations and traditional religious scholars (Ulema) often resisted these
Western-inspired edicts, viewing them as an assault on traditional Islamic
supremacy. [1, 2]
Tensions: Rather than creating a peaceful pluralism, forcing secularized legal equality over the old millet system frequently heightened sectarian friction and local resentment across Levantine and Mesopotamian provinces. [1]
So there were political systems and religious hierarchy, which the British and other nations kept pecking away at in order to bring Turkey into its current ‘diplomatic status’. Is Turkey A Democratic Country? “Turkey is officially a constitutional republic and presidential democracy, but international observers and political scientists broadly classify it as an electoral autocracy or hybrid regime rather than a full democracy.”

Question?
Where are the
Anglo-Saxon people fighting in our present time? From August 1990 to February 1991 we were fighting
Saddam Hussein’s ratbags and we were bombing Bagdad itself, the very heart if “The
Head Of Gold”! And God currently still has us working on that
project.
Islamic Conversion To Christ?
This I believe is the elephant in the room that NOBODY wants to talk about. If you do a search on U-tube and the like for this type of thing happening in the Islamic world; you will be very much surprised to see that millions of Muslims are converting to Christianity. And I will leave that to open discussion in a moment. So, I don't think it is the role of Anglo-Saxon Israel, (The STONE), to convert the Muslim world. That I think is best done by the Lord Himself by the work of the Holy Spirit!

I heard a story about a
mufti in Morocco, who had a dream or a vision of Jesus who told him he was not
preaching the truth about Him. He said go to “sera this and sera etc.” Then
tell your people the truth about Me! The mufti sat on it for quite some time,
then he told his people what Jesus had said to him. It just so happened that on
that very same day that 28 mufti’s in that region ALL spoke the same message!
So I believe that the Lord and The Holy Spirit can reach the Islamic world any
time He chooses!
I think we can say that without the influence of the
Anglo-Saxon people, the world would be in a vastly different state today. As I
see it we have effectively helped to bring in democratic rule in most world
governments. And I’m NOT saying that democracy is the best form of government! BUT it is a whole lot better
than some of the other forms of government that have existed, such as a
corrupt monarchy or a dictatorship! And I believe that God has used the
Anglo-Saxon people as I said at the start, “as His battle-axe and weapons of
war”! And He has used us to grind down the statue, (the nations of the
world), and do His clean up of the world. Do you think we have proven our
theory that Anglo-Saxon Israel is the STONE of Daniel chapter 2? I think we
have. BUT we haven’t completely finished our job as yet!
The Everlasting Covenant
Refer
CN by John Wesley on Hebrews 13:20 “The everlasting covenant
- The Christian covenant, which is not temporary, like the Jewish, but designed
to remain for ever. By the application of that blood, by which this covenant
was established, may he make you, in every respect, inwardly and outwardly
holy!”
Gods Secret Weapon
Gods Secret Weapon
But as of around the time of Calvary God has given
Israel a secret weapon. Does anyone have any idea of what it is? It is the Holy
Spirit. And that was poured out on the day of Pentecost... on to whom? The Holy
Spirit was given to 120 BELIEVERS! And they were washed in baptism.. into the
new everlasting covenant through the blood of Jesus Christ? So the Anglo-Saxon
world has this new secret weapon, The Holy Spirit! And any believer can request
it if he or she simply asks for it. Refer to Luke chapter 11:13 “how
much more shall your heavenly Father give the Holy Spirit to those who ask Him?” So lets look
at some examples of this powerful weapon in action.
Christians Throughout The World
The Christians are ‘peppered’ throughout the Anglo-Saxon people, just like the Levitical priesthood of old was spread throughout ancient Israel. And here is a project for you; Do a study of the different revivals and the ‘days of national prayer’, particularly around the times of various wars.

Here is one
coincidence for you. The Anglo-Zulu
War at the Battle of Rorke's Drift. On
Jan 1879, 4000 Zulus descended on a Welsh-British regiment
of only 150 men, the Welsh regiment held! Combine that with this, [Ref wiki Welsh Revival]
“Between 1859 and 1904,
there were local revivals in Cwmafan
(1866), Rhondda (1879), Carmarthen and Blaenau Ffestiniog (1887), Dowlais (1890) and
Pontnewydd
(1892).” I don’t think those dates
are just a coincidence! There would be Christian families back home in Wales
knowing, from what they read in the newspapers, that their men folk were facing
a savage confrontation with a massive overwhelming Zulu army. What would their
gut reaction be? They would be interceding before God for their men in South
Africa, and God answers prayer! Eph 2:4 “But God, who is rich in mercy, for
His great love with which He loved us :5 (even when we were dead in
sins) has made us alive together with Christ (by grace you are
saved), :6 and has raised us up together and made us sit together in
the heavenlies in Christ Jesus,” The Anglo-Saxon Christians of the world have been in spiritual warfare
for centuries praying and interceding, and in so doing “Topple The Antichrist”
and other ungodly powers.
Also, during World War 1, we have the story of the “Angel of Mons: The Bowmen and Other Legends of the War” And here is another example in WWII, the Miracle of Dunkirk. In which over 900, (mostly small privately owned), ocean vessel ventured across the English Channel to save some 338226 soldiers from the German war machine. And during that time the King of England ordered a day of national prayer!
So God has kept His promises to Abram and our numerous other forefathers with His everlasting covenants. Even if in the past we have failed to keep our side of the bargain, God has kept His promises. Until finally He has ratified the promise with an everlasting covenant sealed with His own blood.
I Hope you have found that to be an interesting alternative view to the study of the STONE of Daniel chapter 2.
