GOD is SOUL. Elohim not only has had to face down the idea of an anthropomorphic god. A pantheistic Greek philosophical god evolved known by the expression, “God is the soul of the world.” Marcus Varro (116-27? BCE), a Roman scholar and writer, along with others, brought this philosophy to Rome. (Chapter
Names for GOD, Part 1. Elohim and El. One problem with interpreting these verses literally is that the reader has forgotten that the book of Daniel, being written well after the Babylonian captivity, follows the Hebrew concept of God developed during that captivity—that God is Elohim, a non-anthropomorphic Being, that
Introduction to the Understanding God Series. We are now beginning a series of ideas from this book on understanding God. We will look at where many very meaningful names for God have been explored. These ideas have continued to develop over the millenniums. In the first chapter of Genesis (verse 27), man

Breakthrough Analysis of Daniel’s Prophecies is being published by Balboa Press, a division of Hay House, founded in 1984 by author Louise Hay who has spoken often about her spiritual path.

The process has begun for publishing the Second Edition of Fluctuating Equality Imposed on Women with edits and a new title. This title seems too general, somewhat confusing, and does not reveal the unfolding of ideas that go beyond just historical perspectives. This new title reveals the foundation of the book with the combined deeper
Another interesting development in the growing realization of the equality of women is the growing number of women in the clergy. For example, we have a quote from Dr. Dermott’s book Breakthrough Analysis of Daniel’s Prophecies: “…the Church of Sweden and the Church of Norway have accepted and now practice gender equality; … at last
As previously mentioned: There are 36 references to women and their rights in Breakthrough Analysis of Daniel’s Prophecies. “There appears to be an additional side blessing related to the 1335-year prophecy other than that directly focused on the Second Coming. …many women during World War II, replacing the men shipped overseas, had built U.S. bombers
As mentioned in the previous blog, there are 36 references to women and their rights in Breakthrough Analysis of Daniel’s Prophecies. For these next few months, we will be looking at several of these references. In the final chapter, Chapter 20, of his Daniel’s prophecies book, Dr. Dermott introduces a series of sixteen questions with
Combined Focus of Both Daniel’s Prophecies and Women’s Equality books. In both of his books, Dr. Dermott has focused on the importance of the causes as well as the influences of past events throughout history and how they have affected the present. He truly digs deeply to uncover the truths of the events through the
And we continue with further discussion of Daniel 7 from Chapter X (part 5). “ONE LIKE THE SON OF MAN CAME WITH THE CLOUDS OF HEAVEN” (Daniel 7:13-14 +) By the grace of the Ancient of days, the saints, God’s followers, were given this gift of righteousness and purity. This is that kingdom of heaven
Continuing with further discussion on Daniel 7 from Chapter X (part 4). “ONE LIKE THE SON OF MAN CAME WITH THE CLOUDS OF HEAVEN” (Daniel 7:13-14 +) Finding the Kingdom of Heaven For those who write in English and want to emphasize some point, they can use ALL CAPITALS, bolding, italicizing, underlining, and exclamatory punctuation!!!!
Continuing with further discussion on Daniel 7 from Chapter X (part 4). “ONE LIKE THE SON OF MAN CAME WITH THE CLOUDS OF HEAVEN” (Daniel 7:13-14 +) Isaiah introduced the Messiah as a Branch. This old-time prophet brought out the Messiah’s human heritage: “And there shall come forth a rod out of the stem of
And we continue with further discussion on Daniel 7 from Chapter X (Part 2). “ONE LIKE THE SON OF MAN CAME WITH THE CLOUDS OF HEAVEN” (Daniel 7:13-14 +) Two Advents of the BRANCH of David With the misinterpretation of “one like the Son of man [coming] with the clouds of heaven” (Daniel 7:13) as
These blogs began with parts from Dr. Dermott’s manuscript so now will continue along the same lines. We will now look into Chapter X. …four chapters (in the present book) are needed to discuss all that Daniel revealed in his seventh chapter. We will be continuing this discussion in five parts, this being the first.
The process to publish has begun!!! Dr. Dermott’s book, Breakthrough Analysis of Daniel’s Prophecies, the book he has been writing, researching, and editing for the past 50 years, which he completed in the summer of 2021, is going to press!!! Much has now changed. Allan passed on with no forewarning the day after his 56th
Here we are continuing to consider the prophecies in Daniel 7 leading up to the prophecy that points to A.D. 1870. But before doing this we need to examine Daniel’s other date for the divine Stone to fall. The “stone cut out of the mountain without hands” (the impersonal Christ) falls on the feet
Until now Daniel has been preparing the reader for an outpouring of major prophecies. So much is unveiled in Daniel 7 that it will take four of this book’s chapters to cover it all. Today, the world is no longer under the temporal power of any of Daniel’s four world empires. So, when did the
Religious intolerance continues into the Second World Empire. Daniel 6 begins with Daniel as the chief president of the Median king Darius. Two main themes stand out: the absurdity of fixed, irreversible laws based upon the stroke of a king’s signature, and, now in the second world empire, a repeat of that diabolical evil—religious intolerance
In the fifth chapter of Daniel, there is the forced transition from the head of gold to the chest and arms of silver. This chapter is important on several fronts: subtle reminders of the four world empires of human temporal power; the inability of magicians, astrologers, Chaldeans, and soothsayers to interpret messages from the eternal
In Daniel 4, all four world empires are continuing to be symbolized by Nebuchadnezzar and the man in the king’s dream is the king himself, whose heart has changed into one of a beast. Four times throughout Chapter 4 we are told that this beastly heart shall wallow in the effects of sinful pride for
Daniel’s Chapter 3 and 4 use Nebuchadnezzar, king of Babylonia, as a metaphorical representation of the whole giant image of four world empires in order to unveil the nature and problems associated with the whole world’s temporal-power structure. The focus of his Chapter 3 is the intolerance of temporal power for religious freedom, the idea
Daniel’s Theme Governing All His Prophecies: Chapter 2 of Daniel is very important. Here is found not only the theme of the chapter but also the theme of the whole book: The triumph of Christ over unbridled, human temporal power. All of the stories, all of the prophecies pertaining
So, what is Daniel’s thesis? The main focus of the entire book is visions and prophecies. Included is God’s plan for righteousness or purity (the Old Testament major prophets’ terms for the impersonal Christ) to crush the temporal power of four world empires through what Daniel revealed and Christians now call the First and Second
“How Prophecy Works” is an excerpt from Chapter I of my book Breakthrough Analysis of Daniel’s Prophecies. So how does prophecy work? In Christianity, the sphere is often used to symbolize eternity because there are an infinite number of circles on its surface and because each of these circles has no beginning and no end,
The following is a fourth passage from the Epilogue of my book Championing Womanhood: We had more than fifteen thousand years of rule by women, called matriarchy. As Endo-European, patriarchic culture slowly replaced the old European, feminine culture, a thousand years or so of transition began to strip women of their power and rights. As
The following is a third passage from the Epilogue of my book Championing Womanhood: One of the defects of human nature is to look down on others so that we feel better about ourselves. The treatment of females in Africa, the Mideast, and Asia is obviously deplorable. But do Western men, at least in part,
The following is another passage in the Epilogue of my book Championing Womanhood: To think that the past does not influence the present is to live in the Adamic mist with its confusing consequences. Collect all the ancient superstitions and fears pertaining to blood and the woman’s menstruation, all the Aristotelian notions, prejudices, and arrogance
The following is a passage in the Epilogue of my book Championing Womanhood: Say that two football teams arrive at the Super Bowl rated with an equal chance of winning. Although equal, the two come with different strengths and different weaknesses, with their various ups and downs during the season. Likewise, men and women come
Previously the cover of Breakthrough Analysis of Daniel’s Prophecies was to have been the statue depicting the ‘Four World Empires’. This was changed because the discussion of those prophecies is only focused on through the seventh chapter and there are twenty chapters. The concentration then goes beyond those ‘Four World Empires’ prophecies to focus on
