In this episode of Marking the End Times, I unveil some of the most fascinating hidden prophecies embedded within the familiar stories of Daniel. While most people read about Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego in the fiery furnace or Daniel in the lion’s den as inspiring tales of faith and courage, I’ll show you the remarkable prophetic patterns woven throughout Daniel chapters 2–7.
These chapters form what’s called a chiastic structure. That is a literary pattern where corresponding sections mirror each other, pointing toward deeper prophetic meaning. Nebuchadnezzar’s golden image that everyone must worship? That’s a precise foreshadowing of Revelation chapter 13 and the Antichrist’s image. Daniel’s faithfulness despite persecution? That’s a picture of the believing Jewish remnant protected during the Tribulation.
I’ll then transition to Revelation chapter 13, which is the “Antichrist chapter” of the Bible. There, I’ll show how these ancient patterns find their ultimate fulfillment. Using seven key words beginning with “W,” I’ll give you a complete biography of the Beast, including why I believe he’ll actually die and return to life, and why he cannot be the Islamic Mahdi as some suggest.

The End Times Timeline: God’s Eternal Plan Revealed
This small comprehensive book, The End Times Timeline provides believers with an accessible framework for understanding biblical prophecy. It traces God's prophetic program from the Old Testament through the eternal state. What's particularly noteworthy is how current events align with ancient predictions—Israel's restoration, technological advances enabling global surveillance, and the geopolitical alignment of nations mentioned in Ezekiel 38–39.
The timeline identifies key prophetic milestones: the Rapture preceding the Tribulation, the rise of Antichrist, the rebuilt Temple, and Christ's Second Coming. While some debate the timing of particular events like the Gog-Magog War, the overall framework reflects solid Bible research. This resource serves as an excellent tool for both new believers seeking prophetic clarity and mature Christians desiring to understand their place in God's unfolding plan.
