Naw, long before Daniel 2 was prophesied, the Word of God warned of satan, and his false fruit offering + Rome's two iron legs that were to be in the future, (church & state) God warned His creation of the devil serpent, and his lying garbage! But you can be sure that they both did arrive on time! And to worship satan it only takes James 2:8-12 in full 'mature' knowledge of disobedience, to be one of his! Any false doctrine taught for truth will in a short span of several years, will do satan's trick!
Based on the Genesis 4:3-8, we see much of the Everlasting Gospel of Revelation 14:6 played out, if one can 'come and let us reason together sayeth the Lord'?
Most Bible folks had understood that Genesis 3:15 was the 'centerpiece' of this Eternal Gospel. It was the Lamb of God offering that was to be not only killed, (a physical work) but it 'testified' also in the 'Believing by Faith' that the Godhead prophetically required!! Hebrews 11:13's ones 'ALL Died IN THIS FAITH'
OK: In Genesis chapter 4 we see where Cain, who had been brought up in the faith, would make a FINAL MATURE, person to person [Fatal Rejection] of the ONE, OF THE SACRIFICE, CHRIST! There is no record that he had ever before this, backslid.
There are a few things to take into consideration here. (see the K.J. verse) satan was around where ever he could tempt! He had beat out Adam at the tree. (see Matthew 4:9) And there was a three way discussion by Christ God there, with Cain in verse 7 ibid. and the serpent. (we see that by reasoning)
Then we see maturity, as with Cain being brought up in the Faith, & an mature fruit farmer, and with [Equal to the 'outpouring of the Holy Ghost' (Acts 2) as with Christ/God speaking face to face with Cain], then it call's for a Mature DECISION! 1 John 5:16-17!! (like other Bible examples, such as Acts 5:1-3 and many more) And ex/priest's of Rome?? Unless one thinks that a fruit sacrifice can do as Rome has done also, an attempt to replace (Daniel 7:25) with the sun/worship stuff, from the Eternal Godhead Commanded 7th Day Sabbath?? Genesis 2:2-3 You know, Cain was rejected, but not Catholicism with her whole slew of whore daughters?? Rev. 17:5
And Rev. 18:4's Fatal WARNING!But notice that God asked Cain a question? His answer was one done by both works and belief! (James 2:20 & James 2:26) And it was his FATAL DECISION TO MAKE! See Revelation 2:5) Sure, yet it was his free choice. And if the right 'fullness of the Everlasting Gospel CONDITION' had been OBEYED, Cain would have continued on in being ACCEPTED! (in the Faith! Romans 8:1 & Acts 5:32, and the Words would have differently!)
Last important point!
Remember that the only part of the Doctrine of Christ rejected was the acceptance of the COMPLETE 'EVERLASTING GOSPEL OF CHRIST, and HIS Eternal Covenant Conditional Requirement! Hebrews 13:20's Faith + Works of Obedience!
And both Cain & Rome have violated both on an continuing finished full cup of Hebrews 6:6 And both were satans 'fold'!! Compare Revelation 3:9 and even ask yourself who took over in Matthew 23:38 when Christ was put to death and YOUR HOUSE IS LEFT UNTO YOU D-E-S-O-L-A-T-E! Who now is 'l'ord of that house?? Wake-UP!
(and no, that was not Rome, for they had never had Christ in their 'fold' to begin with)
And it was here that we see satan the old serpent wondering around just waiting for his hawkish pounce! As Cain was given the last chance to do the right requirement, God told satan that if Cain did not do the right thing, that Cain would be his, (satans) and that the Genesis 6:3 'Striving' of the Holy Ghost would now stop, and he would be turned over to his carnal desire one, who is satan! And before long we see the pre/flood ones fully developed! (as with Catholic Rome in Revelation 18:4)
With satan's new convert, earth had its first full-fledged denomination, huh? Or do you think that satan did not want worship? (see Matthew 4:4-9) And does one think that Cain gave up all of his previous doctrines that he had been faithful with?
And how about the anti/Christ Rome and her priesthood? If one will believe them, they could be sold about any bill of goods from the devils slim/pit! Daniel 7:25
But Rome did come on the scene as stated.. Mystery Babylon. She starts her work from Dan 2, on. Dan. 7 brings some more truths on from her two iron legs & ten toes of church & state. And Rev. 13:1-4 we see that John looks backwards into history at her. That is enough for now!
