USA in Old Testament   
    
   Think we're kidding? Turn to Daniel, chapter 2.  

Background: Babylonian King Nebuchadnezzar (605-539 B.C.) had a dream. 
He summoned his magicians, enchanters, sorcerers and astrologers. He was so disturbed he threatened to cut (them) into pieces and your houses turned into piles of rubble - if they couldn't interpret the dream. They couldn't.  

   Daniel and his three friends, Jewish captives now serving the king, would have been included in a massacre of "wise men." Daniel asked the king for time. They prayed. During the night God gave Daniel the mystery, which he relayed to the king. 

An enormous, dazzling statue  
   The head was made of pure gold, its chest and arms of silver, its belly and thighs of bronze, its legs of iron, its feet partly of iron and partly of baked clay.

   A rock was cut out, but not made by human hands. It struck the statue on its feet of iron and clay. Then all - was broken to pieces like chaff on a threshing floor. The wind swept them away. But the rock became a huge mountain and filled the whole earth. 

   You are that head of gold, Daniel told the king. After you, he continued, there would be second, third and fourth kingdoms. 

   As for feet and toes, this will be a divided kingdom. Following that, the God of heaven will set up a kingdom that will never be destroyed. It will endure forever. This is the meaning of the rock. 
   
Who are the four?  
   1. Babylon  2. Medo-Persia  3. Greece  4. Rome. Modern states are part of the same world system which must be destroyed (Revelation 19) before Christ establishes his kingdom. The United (?) States of America is among the feet and toes.
