Revelation speaks mightily of Kingdoms, which many have hastily assumed to be the kingdoms made of men, but such is suppositious and faulty reasoning weakly supported in both logic and fact, as we have no true kingdoms on earth, merely monarchies and republics. A true kingdom is a realm or sphere in which one most powerful thing is dominant. To rule a kingdom, the king must be the strongest member of its membership. In a kingdom of brutality he that is most brutal rules, in a kingdom of liars he that is most duplicitous rules, and in a kingdom of love he with the greatest love rules. Earthly institutions of civil politic are fickle associations at best, and political and dynastic empires are most transient human endeavors. A reckless gamble it would be, even for God, to mention in projected future scenarios, the many human societal affairs, when these are capricious contingencies that drift upon the whiles and vagaries of nature, the uncertain outcomes of wars and pestilences, and the almost inevitable prospect of careless economic ruin. Is it possible we suffer the delusions of earthly chauvinisms that magnify and elevate the petty tribe, the political bandit and wanton imperialist to the status of kingdoms? Few when on earth have ruled above a few score of years, then often to be replaced at their demise by their opposite, such variable fortune confounding even the Creator to predict with precision and specificity the development and progress of our civic. The Almighty is but little concerned with the details and tribulations of daily struggles, but rather the quality of thought of churches, as this will latterly form the essence of kingdoms in the hereafter. These beastly kingdoms, the same to which Daniel alludes, stationed in the circumjacent astral shells of the earth, mantle their kings in authority tapped from the love and adoration of their subjects. Were such love always expressed to the pure and worthy object, and vest power in the steep of agape, earthlings would long since dwell in contiguous utopias, alas here cynicism triumphs. Is not now proven that there can be love for the foolish and vain, admiration for the hateful, reverence for undeserved martial glory, and worship of hypocrisy. Certainly the Law of the Almighty, if not at least the Law of Murphy, cannot disallow entire kingdoms founded on such inferior ethic, and as while the sickly sentiments have vogue upon the earth so persist they in the heavens of the earth also. Earthly empires are fleeting and temporal, but the passing millennia have little tempered the passions and lusts, which are sooner amplified than diminished. That the accumulated infidel of spirit should have an ambitious hierarchy is not remarkable but expected, and the fuel of wars in the dark heavens, wherein the brief victory of the most invincible and base is a source of profound bewilderment to the ignorant, an inescapable expectation of the wise, and the subject of the narrative of Daniel.

Kingdoms of Daniel
Revelation speaks mightily of Kingdoms, which many have hastily assumed to be the kingdoms made of men, but such is suppositious and faulty reasoning weakly supported in both logic and fact, as we have no true kingdoms on earth, merely monarchies and republics. A true kingdom is a realm or sphere in which one most powerful thing is dominant. To rule a kingdom, the king must be the strongest member of its membership. In a kingdom of brutality he that is most brutal rules, in a kingdom of liars he that is most duplicitous rules, and in a kingdom of love he with the greatest love rules.
