This teaching serves to give a brief breakdown of the seven beasts which are revealed in the scriptures. Four of the Beasts were seen by Daniel and revealed in the Old Testament. The other three were seen by John and are revealed in the New Testament.
Here is a list of the Beasts
For the past 2500 years, many have come up with different interpretations for Daniel 9:24-27. Much of what I am going to present is therefore not new. However, I myself have struggled with this prophecy for the past 12 years. I have read just about every popular interpretation out there, but still something has always been missing. I couldn’t quite put my finger on it until last week.
This teaching is meant to give a basic understanding of how visions and dreams work in relation to their interpretation. A lot of prophets have become discouraged and others have been labeled false prophets simply because they lacked an understanding of a few principles.
Acts 2:17 Living Bible (TLB)
17 ‘In the last days,’ God said, ‘I will pour out my Holy Spirit upon all mankind, and your sons and daughters shall prophesy, and your young men shall see visions, and your old men dream dreams.

Daniel 2:44-45 (WEB)
44 “In the days of those kings the God of heaven will set up a kingdom which will never be destroyed, nor will its sovereignty be left to another people; but it will break in pieces and consume all these kingdoms, and it will stand forever.

A more detailed analysis of the visions of Daniel is given as separate teachings. This teaching assumes you have already read them.
A lot of people read Daniel and Revelation and when they see all these beasts and horns they shudder. What’s all this about? People have made the assumption that a nation or king that is seen as a beast, is somewhat more wicked than the rest. It’s not about being the most evil person. It’s about how they relate to Israel and the Christ. None of the scriptures in the bible will ever make sense until we see how Jesus Christ fits in to it.
The book of Revelation is the only book in the bible that is directly written by Jesus Christ; John is a mere scribe in the same way that Baruch was a scribe for Jeremiah.
