The Roman empire never really vanished completely, did it? The names changed - "Holy Roman Empire"? The Vatican? And so it continued. They've been around this whole time, growing in power, wealth, and most of all: EVIL.
The Romans are here, in this verse recorded by the prophet Daniel. The ROMANS are the people who destroyed the Sanctuary and the antichrist will be one of them.
And after threescore and two weeks, shall Messiah be slain, and shall have nothing, and the people of the prince that shall come, shall destroy the city and the Sanctuary, and the end thereof shall be with a flood: and unto the end of the battle it shall be destroyed by desolations.
And he shall confirm the covenant with many for one week: and in the midst of the week he shall cause the sacrifice and the oblation to cease, and for the overspreading of the abominations, he shall make it desolate, even until the consummation determined shall be poured upon the desolate.
Amazing how 2500+ year old history so accurately describes what’s happening today. Particularly Daniel and Ezekiel when it comes to stuff playing out on the world stage. That’s why I cringe whenever I see Russian cheerleaders on here. Yes, Ukraine is as corrupt as corrupt can get, yes, we should stay out of it and worry about ourselves, but Russia (Russian government) is evil.
