~~The third head ~~
These seven heads were the heads or main sections of men on earth after the creation of Adam. These seven heads in Daniel 7 reach down through the OT. times, then over into the Church, (behind the scenes), and on down until the very end of time, when Jesus will cast them into the lake of fire. The 7-headed beast in Revelation is a combination of all seven in one. It is the seven churches. They cover the main sections of men on earth after Jesus. God headed up mankind in the OT. by nations. He headed up mankind after Jesus by churches.
Daniel 7:6--After this I beheld, and lo another, like a leopard, which had upon the back of it four wings of a fowl; and the beast had also four heads; and dominion was given to it. Now this third kingdom had four heads, or four separate divisions of peoples. These were Noah’s three sons and Abraham. Noah’s three sons divided up the whole earth after the flood.(Gen. 10:32). All of the races on earth came from them. But then God started a new nation of a group of people who did not actually come from any individual ‘kind’ of people. This was the Hebrews. They came from Abraham. So Abraham was one of the major heads of peoples since the flood.
Dominion was given to this third kingdom when God blessed them and said every living is delivered into your hands. This gave them power or authority over all living beings. This definitely establishes that these three sons of Noah will be heads over the beast kingdom. Noah was the head until his death. Then his sons became the head rulers. So that made three heads for this Leopard Kingdom.
Gen 2:10 And a river went out of Eden to water the garden; and from thence it was parted, and became into four heads. 2:11 The name of the first is Pison: that is it which compasseth the whole land of Havilah, where there is gold; 2:12 And the gold of that land is good: there is bdellium and the onyx stone. 2:13 And the name of the second river is Gihon: the same is it that compasseth the whole land of Ethiopia. 2:14 And the name of the third river is Hiddekel: that is it which goeth toward the east of Assyria. And the fourth river is Euphrates.
This ‘river’ which went out of Eden was these nations of people. Remember that Levi is said to have paid tithes when he was as yet in the loins of Abraham? See this river of people was in the genes of those who went out of Eden in that flood. See that it said the river parted into four heads after it left Eden? This is those four heads on the third or Leopard Kingdom. Here is where the earth stopped being all one and began to break up into different nations of people. They were all still as one until God came down and confounded their language and scattered them over all the earth. Then is when and how they parted into four heads. Watering the garden is speaking of reproducing or bringing up more ‘water’ = people.
Ge 10:32 These are the families of the sons of Noah, after their generations, in their nations: and by these were the nations divided in the earth after the flood.
See that this dividing is the same as that river parting into four heads. Dividing and parting is the same thing.
Gen 11:10 These are the generations of Shem: Shem was an hundred years old, and begat Arphaxad two years after the flood: 11:11 And Shem lived after he begat Arphaxad five hundred years, and begat sons and daughters. 11:12 And Arphaxad lived five and thirty years, and begat Salah: 11:13 And Arphaxad lived after he begat Salah four hundred and three years, and begat sons and daughters.
If you will read Gen 10, it gives a long list of the families born after the flood. I am showing here that these people had lived hundreds of years after the flood, continuing to have children. See when they began to try to regain that heavenly life they had had before leaving Eden, there was again a world full of people. It had been hundreds of years. It did not just happen ‘overnight’. See that Shem lived five hundred years after he begat Arphaxed and had many more children. Arphaxed begat Salah when he was only thirty-five years old. He continued to have children for four hundred and three years. So see, there had come forth many people just from these two men. They had again brought forth many, many people.
Gen 10:25 And unto Eber were born two sons: the name of one was Peleg; for in his days was the earth divided; and his brother's name was Joktan.
In the life-time of Peleg, the earth was divided. So what brought about this division?
Gen 11:1 And the whole earth was of one language, and of one speech. 11:2 And it came to pass, as they journeyed from the east, that they found a plain in the land of Shinar; and they dwelt there. 11:3 And they said one to another, Go to, let us make brick, and burn them thoroughly. And they had brick for stone, and slime had they for mortar. 11:4 And they said, Go to, let us build us a city and a tower, whose top may reach unto heaven; and let us make us a name, lest we be scattered abroad upon the face of the whole earth.
If you read this in a natural, carnal sense, you will never get the truth. It is spiritual speech. Paul likens our building our spiritual ‘house’ unto building a foundation and then walls. It is building the kingdom of Jesus. Holy Jerusalem, the Bride of Christ, is named as having 12 foundations and walls. Now that is the same kind of ‘city’ these people were building here. It was not a literal city as the one we live in. It was not an earthly type city. They were attempting to regain that heavenly power and life they had before the flood. Tower means a high, lofty, inaccessible place. The NAME is the power. They were building a big NAME for themselves. They were building a powerful lifestyle which they thought could keep them from ever dying again. See the TOP could reach unto heaven. This is the same thing Adam did in the Garden when he lifted his top up among the thick boughs. It means they were lifting themselves up above God. They have now proven that they have reverted right back to wanting to be God, to be worshipped. They are building a power for themselves which they think can make them God. They are building a big NAME or power for themselves, not for God. They have now left God out of their lives. This city and tower would be their own power to live forever as god to themselves. They saw no need for God. They considered themselves to be god. They were self-sufficient.
This proves this third kingdom was a beast. They are using untempored mortar, as was the ones in Eze. He said their walls will fall, for they used untempored mortar, which is false doctrine. It leaves God out of the building. Thus it is a house built on the sand, or flesh, and it will fall when the storms hit it.
Gen 11:5 And the LORD came down to see the city and the tower, which the children of men builded. 11:6 And the LORD said, Behold, the people is one, and they have all one language; and this they begin to do: and now nothing will be restrained from them, which they have imagined to do. 11:7 Go to, let us go down, and there confound their language, that they may not understand one another's speech. 11:8 So the LORD scattered them abroad from thence upon the face of all the earth: and they left off to build the city. Gen 11:9 Therefore is the name of it called Babel; because the LORD did there confound the language of all the earth: and from thence did the LORD scatter them abroad upon the face of all the earth.
The LORD coming down to see their city shows that this is when God brought them to judgment, as he did Adam in the garden. He acknowledged that they did indeed have the ability to do all they had imagined. They were a powerful people. But they had become gods unto themselves. So God sends his ‘wrath’ upon them, and changes their languages and scatters them over the entire earth. So they had to leave off building their city and tower. Notice that although these men descended from Noah, they are called sons of men, not sons of God. This shows that they were not worshipping the true God, but themselves. This is the damning sin of the beast kingdom.
Now for the fourth head on this third kingdom:
Gen12:1 Now the LORD had said unto Abram, Get thee out of thy country, and from thy kindred, and from thy father's house, unto a land that I will show thee: 12:2 And I will make of thee a great nation, and I will bless thee, and make thy name great; and thou shalt be a blessing: 12:3 And I will bless them that bless thee, and curse him that curseth thee: and in thee shall all families of the earth be blessed.
This blessing from God to Abraham, saying, I will make of thee a great nation, proves that Abraham is also a head over mankind. Then why the beast kingdom? Wasn’t Abraham a righteous man? Sure he was. But remember that from Abraham came both the righteous and the unrighteous. He was the father to many nations, not just one. He was also the head over the bond children, Ishmael and Esau. His children were said to be of two kinds = the sand of the sea = natural, fleshly, and the stars of heaven = the spiritual. So then Abraham is one of those four heads on the third kingdom. You all know so much about Abraham, and this is so long, till I will just let this one go for now. There is proof that he is the fourth head on this third kingdom.
Read Gen. 9:19--These are the three sons of Noah: and of them was the whole earth overspread. This shows that those three ‘ribs’ again replenished the earth with people. This made up three major heads of nations after the flood.
But as I said God then started a nation of Hebrews from Abraham. These people were totally separate from all other peoples on earth. So this was also a major division head.

~~The third head ~~
These seven heads were the heads or main sections of men on earth after the creation of Adam. These seven heads in Daniel 7 reach down through the OT. times, then over into the Church, (behind the scenes), and on down until the very end of time, when Jesus will cast them into the lake of fire. The 7-headed beast in Revelation is a combination of all seven in one. It is the seven churches. They cover the main sections of men on earth after Jesus. God headed up mankind in the OT. by nations. He headed up mankind after Jesus by churches.
Daniel 7:6--After this I beheld, and lo another, like a leopard, which had upon the back of it four wings of a fowl; and the beast had also four heads; and dominion was given to it. Now this third kingdom had four heads, or four separate divisions of peoples. These were Noah’s three sons and Abraham. Noah’s three sons divided up the whole earth after the flood.(Gen. 10:32). All of the races on earth came from them. But then God started a new nation of a group of people who did not actually come from any individual ‘kind’ of people. This was the Hebrews. They came from Abraham. So Abraham was one of the major heads of peoples since the flood.
Dominion was given to this third kingdom when God blessed them and said every living is delivered into your hands. This gave them power or authority over all living beings. This definitely establishes that these three sons of Noah will be heads over the beast kingdom. Noah was the head until his death. Then his sons became the head rulers. So that made three heads for this Leopard Kingdom.
Gen 2:10 And a river went out of Eden to water the garden; and from thence it was parted, and became into four heads. 2:11 The name of the first is Pison: that is it which compasseth the whole land of Havilah, where there is gold; 2:12 And the gold of that land is good: there is bdellium and the onyx stone. 2:13 And the name of the second river is Gihon: the same is it that compasseth the whole land of Ethiopia. 2:14 And the name of the third river is Hiddekel: that is it which goeth toward the east of Assyria. And the fourth river is Euphrates.
This ‘river’ which went out of Eden was these nations of people. Remember that Levi is said to have paid tithes when he was as yet in the loins of Abraham? See this river of people was in the genes of those who went out of Eden in that flood. See that it said the river parted into four heads after it left Eden? This is those four heads on the third or Leopard Kingdom. Here is where the earth stopped being all one and began to break up into different nations of people. They were all still as one until God came down and confounded their language and scattered them over all the earth. Then is when and how they parted into four heads. Watering the garden is speaking of reproducing or bringing up more ‘water’ = people.
Ge 10:32 These are the families of the sons of Noah, after their generations, in their nations: and by these were the nations divided in the earth after the flood.
See that this dividing is the same as that river parting into four heads. Dividing and parting is the same thing.
Gen 11:10 These are the generations of Shem: Shem was an hundred years old, and begat Arphaxad two years after the flood: 11:11 And Shem lived after he begat Arphaxad five hundred years, and begat sons and daughters. 11:12 And Arphaxad lived five and thirty years, and begat Salah: 11:13 And Arphaxad lived after he begat Salah four hundred and three years, and begat sons and daughters.
If you will read Gen 10, it gives a long list of the families born after the flood. I am showing here that these people had lived hundreds of years after the flood, continuing to have children. See when they began to try to regain that heavenly life they had had before leaving Eden, there was again a world full of people. It had been hundreds of years. It did not just happen ‘overnight’. See that Shem lived five hundred years after he begat Arphaxed and had many more children. Arphaxed begat Salah when he was only thirty-five years old. He continued to have children for four hundred and three years. So see, there had come forth many people just from these two men. They had again brought forth many, many people.
Gen 10:25 And unto Eber were born two sons: the name of one was Peleg; for in his days was the earth divided; and his brother's name was Joktan.
In the life-time of Peleg, the earth was divided. So what brought about this division?
Gen 11:1 And the whole earth was of one language, and of one speech. 11:2 And it came to pass, as they journeyed from the east, that they found a plain in the land of Shinar; and they dwelt there. 11:3 And they said one to another, Go to, let us make brick, and burn them thoroughly. And they had brick for stone, and slime had they for mortar. 11:4 And they said, Go to, let us build us a city and a tower, whose top may reach unto heaven; and let us make us a name, lest we be scattered abroad upon the face of the whole earth.
If you read this in a natural, carnal sense, you will never get the truth. It is spiritual speech. Paul likens our building our spiritual ‘house’ unto building a foundation and then walls. It is building the kingdom of Jesus. Holy Jerusalem, the Bride of Christ, is named as having 12 foundations and walls. Now that is the same kind of ‘city’ these people were building here. It was not a literal city as the one we live in. It was not an earthly type city. They were attempting to regain that heavenly power and life they had before the flood. Tower means a high, lofty, inaccessible place. The NAME is the power. They were building a big NAME for themselves. They were building a powerful lifestyle which they thought could keep them from ever dying again. See the TOP could reach unto heaven. This is the same thing Adam did in the Garden when he lifted his top up among the thick boughs. It means they were lifting themselves up above God. They have now proven that they have reverted right back to wanting to be God, to be worshipped. They are building a power for themselves which they think can make them God. They are building a big NAME or power for themselves, not for God. They have now left God out of their lives. This city and tower would be their own power to live forever as god to themselves. They saw no need for God. They considered themselves to be god. They were self-sufficient.

It leaves God out of the building. Thus it is a house built on the sand, or flesh, and it will fall when the storms hit it.
Gen 11:5 And the LORD came down to see the city and the tower, which the children of men builded. 11:6 And the LORD said, Behold, the people is one, and they have all one language; and this they begin to do: and now nothing will be restrained from them, which they have imagined to do. 11:7 Go to, let us go down, and there confound their language, that they may not understand one another's speech. 11:8 So the LORD scattered them abroad from thence upon the face of all the earth: and they left off to build the city. Gen 11:9 Therefore is the name of it called Babel; because the LORD did there confound the language of all the earth: and from thence did the LORD scatter them abroad upon the face of all the earth.
The LORD coming down to see their city shows that this is when God brought them to judgment, as he did Adam in the garden. He acknowledged that they did indeed have the ability to do all they had imagined. They were a powerful people. But they had become gods unto themselves. So God sends his ‘wrath’ upon them, and changes their languages and scatters them over the entire earth. So they had to leave off building their city and tower. Notice that although these men descended from Noah, they are called sons of men, not sons of God. This shows that they were not worshipping the true God, but themselves. This is the damning sin of the beast kingdom.
Now for the fourth head on this third kingdom:
Gen12:1 Now the LORD had said unto Abram, Get thee out of thy country, and from thy kindred, and from thy father's house, unto a land that I will show thee: 12:2 And I will make of thee a great nation, and I will bless thee, and make thy name great; and thou shalt be a blessing: 12:3 And I will bless them that bless thee, and curse him that curseth thee: and in thee shall all families of the earth be blessed.
This blessing from God to Abraham, saying, I will make of thee a great nation, proves that Abraham is also a head over mankind. Then why the beast kingdom? Wasn’t Abraham a righteous man? Sure he was. But remember that from Abraham came both the righteous and the unrighteous. He was the father to many nations, not just one. He was also the head over the bond children, Ishmael and Esau. His children were said to be of two kinds = the sand of the sea = natural, fleshly, and the stars of heaven = the spiritual. So then Abraham is one of those four heads on the third kingdom. You all know so much about Abraham, and this is so long, till I will just let this one go for now. There is proof that he is the fourth head on this third kingdom.
Read Gen. 9:19--These are the three sons of Noah: and of them was the whole earth overspread. This shows that those three ‘ribs’ again replenished the earth with people. This made up three major heads of nations after the flood.
But as I said God then started a nation of Hebrews from Abraham. These people were totally separate from all other peoples on earth. So this was also a major division head.
