“Vile Person” stirs up conflict to bring defeat to opposing forces
“And he will stir up his power and his courage against the king of the south with a great army; and the king of the south will be stirred up to battle with a very great and mighty army; for they will forecast devices against him. Yea, they that feed of the portion of his meat will destroy him, and his army will overflow: and many will fall down slain.” Daniel 11:25-26
The “he” in this verse is the “Vile Person” described in the posts on Daniel 11:21-24. He is stirring up his courage and power within a great army against the king of the South. Courage is being stirred up within the hearts of a great army, and his power is seen through the military force of the king of the North. The king of the North is revealed as the military army of the “Vile Person” in Daniel 11:40.
In today’s world, the “Vile Person” is the one with power over physiology to give people what to feel, do, think, and say. This one has the ability to stir up courage within the populations of people around the world. At the same time, a day comes when an undisputed atheistic military is working for the undisputed one world government. Whenever courage and power are stirred up against another military entity, this involves the global culture being stirred up the same as the global military is stirred up. We see this happening in the world today where the global population is stirred up to protest and riot in unity and support of military action. This unity is to benefit the goal of the global government of the beast.
At the same time that the global population and the king of the North are rallied against the king of the South, a battle begins to brew. The king of the South is also stirred up to battle with a large military force of his own. The “Vile Person” knows he will have the victory because he is the one with power over physiology to stir up the emotions and thoughts leading to war, as seen in Daniel 11:40-43. This is how the global government of the beast uses its global military and global culture to conquer opposing forces. As individuals, the Holy Spirit says to us, “…be subject to rulers and authorities, to obey, to be ready for every good work, to speak evil of no one, to be peaceable, gentle, showing all humility to all men.” Titus 3:1-2
The king of the South has a great military force but doesn’t have the support of the global culture. Even though both kings are evil, as seen in the coming verse 27. The king of the South has people plotting against him to ensure his failure and destruction in battle. These are people who eat at his dinner table every day. This is how the global government and global culture works. They will be those who are your most trusted friends and allies, but they are also those whose allegiance is to the “Vile One” who gives them what to feel, speak, do, and think. These are wolves in sheep clothing just waiting for the command to pounce on the prey, “These are spots in your love feasts, while they feast with you without fear, serving only themselves.” Jude 1:12
The army of the king of the South will overflow like flooding waters towards the king of the North but many of the army of the king of the South will fall down dead. Even in today’s world, an enormous and mighty army is no match against the “Vile One”. This one has power over physiology with power over the masses of the global culture and has the ability to empower the global military. That is why today’s culture feels invincible as they say, “We can!”, or “We see“, or “You can’t be!” Those phrases are another interpretation of, “Who is like the beast? Who is able to make war with him?” Revelation 13:4
Both armies are filled with malicious intent at the negotiating table.
“And both of these kings’ hearts will be to do mischief, and they will speak lies at one table; but it will not prosper: for yet the end will be at the time appointed.” Daniel 11:27
The king of the South suffers a brutal defeat, as described in the above verses, so he comes to the negotiating table with the king of the North. However, neither of the kings have any intention of negotiating in good faith with an actual intent on a truce or peace treaty of any type. They are bent on evil and speak lies to one another. The intent of the king of the South is to destroy the reign of the “Vile Person” and defeat the undisputed global military. The intent of the “Vile Person” is to never to share power with another force and to continue to use the king of the North to beat down the king of the South.
The goal of the United Nations is a world without the need for a group of nations with a military to defend against other nations. We see that schism today as nuclear armed NATO forces have opposition from the nuclear armed forces of Russia, China, Iran, Korea, etc. These groups sit with each other routinely within the chambers of the United Nations, one group wanting to see the disarmament of the other. In a world of an atheistic one world government, the atheist countries of the east will not relent until NATO forces are disbanded. The goal is for one dominant global military that works effectively for the atheistic global government of the beast.
The phrase, “…for yet the end will be at the time appointed...” refers to the Battle of Armageddon of the Sixth Plague of Revelations 16:12-16. This is the final battle before the return of our Lord Jesus Christ.
In today’s culture, which is global, the “Vile Person” who governs through the thoughts, feelings, words, and behaviors of people everywhere will never come to terms of peace with those who reject him. This especially includes we who live for God through Jesus Christ to dedicate our body as the home of the Holy Spirit.
“….to you who do not hold to her teaching and have not learned Satan’s so-called deep secrets,“
‘I will not impose any other burden on you, except to hold on to what you have until I come.’”
“I am coming soon. Hold on to what you have, so that no one will take your crown.”
Revelation 2:24-25, 3:1
