"After this I saw in the night visions, and behold a fourth beast, dreadful and terrible, and strong exceedingly; and it had great iron teeth: it devoured and brake in pieces, and stamped the residue with the feet of it: and it was diverse from all the beasts that were before it; and it had ten horns."(Dan.7:7)
The fourth was exceedingly powerful because it had no heart to begin with. The first beast the lion with eagle wings were given a man's heart. Therein lay the way forward for the Salvation Plan. "He fashions their hearts individually; He considers all their works."(Ps.33:15-NKJV). Like a potter He works individually with a marred vessel and in the Parable of the Marred Vessel every one holds relationship with his Maker. "O house of Israel, cannot I do with you as this potter? saith the LORD. Behold, as the clayisin the potter's hand, soareye in mine hand, O house of Israel."(Je.18:6). This heart is a blessing as longs we understand His indescribable grace is poured not because of our merits but in his Son He see something remarkable in each one of us. We have been foreknown even before the worlds were founded.
The Spirit in giving us these four beasts is also sounding warning that the sin unconfessed has festered his institutions state and religion alike. A heathen may profess his God but his works are as bad as the ungodly does. The so called winning souls that accompanied Colonial masters in earlier century achieved precious little. "for ye compass sea and land to make one proselyte, and when he is made, ye make him twofold more the child of hell than yourselves." Matt.23:15.TheLamb as it had been slain, having seven horns and seven eyes, which are the seven Spirits of God sent forth into all the earth was found worthy. In him was perfection since Number Seven is a tag to indicate it. On the other hand the fourth beast had ten horns. Ten is a tag and the Spirit informs us that it it is judged already.
