THE ROMAN CHURCH
IS ALREADY
A KINGDOM
“The fourth beast shall be
A fourth Kingdom on earth,
Which shall be different
from all other kingdoms,
And shall devour the whole earth,
Trample it and break it in pieces.”
(Daniel 7:23-24)
THE FINAL PROPHETIC KINGDOM!!
In the Book of Daniel we find a remarkable and sweeping Bible Prophecy outlining the future of the World until the end of this Age (per the “4 Ages” outlined by the prophet Elijah as mentioned in the Talmud and Josephus).
We are warned the future of Israel (and the whole World) lies with the rise and fall of 4 great gentile World Kingdoms whom God would allow to rule over nation Israel:
| DANIEL 2 | PROPHETIC KINGDOM | DANIEL 7 |
| Head: Gold | Babylon | Lion |
| Chest & Arms: Silver | Persia | Bear |
| Belly & Thighs: Bronze | Greece | Leopard |
| Legs: Iron | Ancient Rome (4th Kingdom) | “Beast” |
| Feet & Toes: Iron + Clay | Revived Rome (The Final Kingdom) | 10 Horns + A Small 11th |
As noted, the Bible warns this final revived Roman Kingdom (also prophetically described as “Babylon” and “Edom”) would begin to rise again sometime soon after 1948 when Israel once again became a Nation (as the Bible predicted) …
THE “KINGDOM OF ROME” TODAY
The Vatican is ALREADY the largest kingdom on Earth with 3,171 Roman Provinces (“Ecclesiastical Jurisdictions”) and a current worldwide population of 1.3 Billion People!!

Current Roman Church Map ALREADY Engulfs The Whole World
Current Map of Roman Provinces
“These provinces are one of the few modern institutions that survive as direct relics of Ancient Rome.”
From the Data Scientist/Cartographer (Sasha Trubetskoy) who completed this modern Roman Map:
“Originally, the administrative divisions of the Roman Catholic Church centered around the borders of the Roman Empire’s provinces.
“But even after the fall of Rome 1500 years ago, the Church kept its diocese boundaries at the Ancient Roman lines as a matter of convenience amidst Europe’s turbulent politics.
“The Church’s expansion into the New World meant that dozens of new provinces were created, in the spirit of their ancient counterparts. With the rapid growth of Catholicism in Africa and Asia during the latter part of the 20th century, these administrative divisions multiplied in those regions as well.
“Today, nearly every corner of the globe has been incorporated into the Catholic administration.
“Interestingly, every subdivision can be thought of as a continuation of the Roman Empire’s province system. These provinces are one of the few modern institutions that survive as direct relics of Ancient Rome.”
Q. What does the term “holy see” mean?
(Catholic Straight …https://catholicstraightanswers.com › Answers)
A. “The term Holy See comes from the Latin Sancta Sedes, meaning “Holy Chair” (The Pope’s Throne), and originates from the enthronement ceremony of the Bishop of Rome, the Pope.”
Note: 87 countries currently maintain embassies to the Holy See (and no other church on Earth has even 1 embassy attached to it.)
From Got Questions:
https://www.gotquestions.org/Daniel-four-beasts.html
“So, Daniel’s vision of the four beasts provided a prophetic look at future world events. Looking back from our perspective, we see these events as world history and can easily see the correlation between each beast and a world empire. However, there was more to Daniel’s vision, and some of it is yet future, even for us.
“Daniel’s attention is drawn to the destructive fourth beast, and he ponders the meaning of its ten horns. Then, a smaller horn begins to grow from the midst of the ten. As the little horn emerges from the beast, three of the original horns are plucked out by the roots. Daniel sees that the little horn has “eyes like the eyes of a human being and a mouth that spoke boastfully” (Daniel 7:8). The proud, boastful words of the little horn continue until the Ancient of Days sets up a day of judgment (verses 9–10). At that time, “the beast was slain and its body destroyed and thrown into the blazing fire” (verse 11). This is in contrast to the fate of the other three beasts, who lost their authority but were not immediately destroyed (verse 12).
“After the fourth beast is killed and its body burned, a “son of man” comes from heaven in the clouds. “He approached the Ancient of Days and was led into his presence” (Daniel 7:13). This man is given “authority, glory and sovereign power” (verse 14), and all the nations of earth worship him. The kingdom he rules is everlasting and indestructible.
“As the interpretation of the vision is given to Daniel, the prophet asks specifically about the fourth beast and its horns (Daniel 7:19). The angel explains: the beast’s ten horns are ten kings who will arise from that kingdom (verse 24). The little, imposing horn with the eyes and mouth of a human represents a later king; before him three of the original kings will be subdued. This evil king “will speak against the Most High and oppress his holy people” (verse 25). He will seek to change times and laws, and he will exert oppressive power over God’s people for three and a half years. This world leader that Daniel saw is the Antichrist, the “ruler who will come” who sets up the abomination in Daniel 9:27.
“Given the fact that the Antichrist emerges from the fourth beast leads us to surmise that, in the end times, there will be a “revival” of the Roman Empire, featuring a coalition of ten world leaders. The Antichrist will take his position of leadership at the expense of three of those leaders, and he will eventually wield global authority. A true tyrant, the Antichrist will demand worship and seek to control all aspects of life (see Revelation 13:16–17).
“The little horn of Daniel 7 is the first beast of Revelation 13. Notice that the beast in Revelation also has ten horns, and John describes it as resembling “a leopard, but [it] had feet like those of a bear and a mouth like that of a lion” (Revelation 13:2). In other words, the beast of Revelation contains elements of all of Daniel’s beasts. Like Daniel’s fourth beast, John’s beast speaks proudly and oppresses God’s people for three and a half years (Revelation 13:5–7).
“The good news is that the reign of the Antichrist is limited: forty-two months, and no more. Then, God promises to judge the little horn. “The court will sit, and [the little horn’s] power will be taken away and completely destroyed forever” (Daniel 7:26). Or, as John saw it, “The beast was captured, and [was] thrown alive into the fiery lake of burning sulfur” (Revelation 19:20).
