The Age of the Antichrist 

Pastor Brody’s sermon from Gateway Church tackles the complex and often intimidating prophecies found in Daniel 7-8. He emphasizes the importance of these prophecies for God's people, intended to provide a perspective on the future that fosters peace rather than stress.
By unpacking the symbolism of the four beasts representing successive empires (Babylon, Medo-Persia, Greece, and Rome), and the "little horn" as the Antichrist, Pastor Brody highlights the historical accuracy of these visions and their fulfillment in figures like Antiochus Epiphanes. He draws connections to the New Testament, illustrating how these prophecies also point to future events and the ultimate rise of the Antichrist.
Pastor Brody addresses the present-day relevance of these prophecies, noting how the spirit of the Antichrist is already at work in the world. He encourages the congregation to recognize the signs of this spirit, which aims to devour, deceive, and wear out God's people. By understanding these prophetic messages, believers can strengthen their faith, stand firm against deception, and maintain hope in God's sovereign plan.
