‘scholar’:
The fact that the book of Daniel has 'God's Kingdom as its main theme
This is a good example of Watch Tower Society lies regurgitated by ‘scholar’. Is ‘God’s kingdom’ really the ‘main theme’ of Daniel?
Chapters 4, 5 (quoting chapter 4) and 6 of Daniel allude to God already having a kingdom (all purportedly during the ‘seven times’), without any mention of it permanently replacing other kingdoms. Chapters 8, 9 and 11 of Daniel make no mention of God’s kingdom, and chapters 1, 3, 10 and 12 do not contain the word “kingdom” at all.
There are actually only two verses (2:44 and 7:14) in Daniel that refer to God setting up a future kingdom. Hardly the book’s ‘main theme’.

I have some really bad news for you. Yes, God's Kingdom is the major if not the theme of Daniel in fact it is the theme of the entire OT. To wit, I simply refer you to at least one major reference work as proof: An Old Testament Theology an exegetical, canonical and thematic approach, Bruce K Waltke, 2007, Zondervan, Grand Rapids, Michigan
The said scholar educating Jeffro in the world of academia!!!

Haha. You’re a joke, ‘scholar’. Unable to make any actual direct refutation from the Bible itself, you insist, ‘no you just haven’t read this entire other subjective book that I won’t bother providing any detail from.’ Suffice to say you disagree with many of Waltke’s theological opinions so you’re cherry picking anyway.

The joke is on you for if you bother to read the endpiece of Waltke's volume it reads as quoted " Through careful, he shows that the unifying theme of the Old Testament is the "inbreaking of the kingdom of God". This theme helps the reader better understand not only the Old Testament, but also the New Testament, the continuity between the Testaments, and ultimately, God himself and one's own self".
Regarding Daniel, I invite you if you so dare to read pp. 158-59.
Enjoy for the said scholar likes to help the little ones.

Haha. Not at all impressed by your confirmation bias from an evangelical. The fact remains that the actual content of Daniel doesn’t support your position.

The fact that you think I lose in this instance is funny enough but the fact that you think it’s ‘once again’ is priceless.
