The future is a vast stage with the curtain still down. Composed six hundred years before Christ’s first coming, the book of Daniel takes us behind that curtain and gives insight into the final events of human history leading into the Lord’s return.

Many Christians have questions about those final events. Does America have a part in God’s prophetic plans? Will this nation remain strong, or are we descending into an irreversible decline? And has God completely set Israel aside?

John MacArthur answers those questions with a careful look at Daniel’s fascinating prophecies. Learn how intriguing events like King Nebuchadnezzar’s strange dream in chapter 2, his temporary insanity in chapter 4, and the mysterious handwriting on the wall in chapter 5 lay out The Rise and Fall of World Powers—the clear progression of geopolitical events that will usher human history into Jesus Christ’s ultimate rule.
