DAN 2:20-22,28,31-45
20 Daniel answered and said, Blessed be the name of God for ever and ever: for wisdom and might are his:
21 And he changeth the times and the seasons: he removeth kings, and setteth up kings: he giveth wisdom unto the wise, and knowledge to them that know understanding:
22 He revealeth the deep and secret things: he knoweth what is in the darkness, and the light dwelleth with him.
28 But there is a God in heaven that revealeth secrets, and maketh known to the king Nebuchadnezzar what shall be in the latter days. Thy dream, and the visions of thy head upon thy bed, are these;
31 Thou, O king, sawest, and behold a great image. This great image, whose brightness was excellent, stood before thee; and the form thereof was terrible.(90 FOOT STATUE HIGH AND 9 FEET WIDE)
32 This image's head was of fine gold,(BABYLONIAN EMPIRE) his breast and his arms of silver,(MEDO-PERSIAN EMPIRE) his belly and his thighs of brass,(GREECE EMPIRE)
33 His legs of iron,(ROMAN EMPIRE) his feet part of iron and part of clay.(REVIVED ROMAN EMPIRE IN OUR DAY)
34 Thou sawest till that a stone was cut out without hands,(JESUS RULE FROM JERUSALEM FOREVER) which smote the image upon his feet that were of iron and clay, and brake them to pieces.
35 Then was the iron, the clay, the brass, the silver, and the gold, broken to pieces together, and became like the chaff of the summer threshingfloors; and the wind carried them away, that no place was found for them: and the stone that smote the image became a great mountain, and filled the whole earth.(JESUS' KINGDOM)
36 This is the dream; and we will tell the interpretation thereof before the king.
37 Thou, O king, art a king of kings: for the God of heaven hath given thee a kingdom, power, and strength, and glory.
38 And wheresoever the children of men dwell, the beasts of the field and the fowls of the heaven hath he given into thine hand, and hath made thee ruler over them all. Thou art this head of gold.
39 And after thee shall arise another kingdom inferior to thee, and another third kingdom of brass, which shall bear rule over all the earth.
40 And the fourth kingdom shall be strong as iron: forasmuch as iron breaketh in pieces and subdueth all things: and as iron that breaketh all these, shall it break in pieces and bruise.
41 And whereas thou sawest the feet and toes, part of potters' clay, and part of iron, the kingdom shall be divided; but there shall be in it of the strength of the iron, forasmuch as thou sawest the iron mixed with miry clay.
42 And as the toes of the feet were part of iron, and part of clay, so the kingdom shall be partly strong, and partly broken.
43 And whereas thou sawest iron mixed with miry clay, they shall mingle themselves with the seed of men: but they shall not cleave one to another, even as iron is not mixed with clay.
44 And in the days of these kings shall the God of heaven set up a kingdom, which shall never be destroyed: and the kingdom shall not be left to other people, but it shall break in pieces and consume all these kingdoms, and it shall stand for ever.
45 Forasmuch as thou sawest that the stone was cut out of the mountain without hands, and that it brake in pieces the iron, the brass, the clay, the silver, and the gold; the great God hath made known to the king what shall come to pass hereafter: and the dream is certain, and the interpretation thereof sure.

Controversial Georgian sculptor prepares Europe’s tallest statue of Jesus
Georgian artist Zurab Tsereteli is preparing an 83-metre tall bronze statue of Jesus
Mauro Pianta Turin He is certainly no minimalist. His extravagant work has always sparked controversy. From the statue of Vladimir Putin dressed in a judo outfit to the giant statue of Peter the Great and the Tear Drop Memorial dedicated to the September 11 attacks: Georgian sculptor Zurab Tsereteli is as famous as he is controversial. Missionary news agency AsiaNews has reported that the “Lenin Prize” and “Hero of Socialist Labour” winner is currently working on a statue of Jesus which once finished, could be the tallest one in Europe.The bronze sculpture was cast in St. Petersburg and is 33 metres high, the same number of years Christ lived n Earth. This, coupled with the 50 metre-high pedestal, makes the statue a record 83 metres tall. Tsereteli said the sculpture would exceed the Statue of Christ in Lisbon – currently considered the tallest in Europe - by five metres.Once complete, the statue’s “home” should be Georgia but the sculptor trusts a space will be found for it in Russia.“Under the administration of the previous mayor of Moscow, Yuri Luzhkov, Tsereteli filled the city with his sculptures, occasionally giving rise to protests from the capital's intelligentsia who criticizes his lack of taste for anything sober. Among the works created for Moscow, the 16 doors of the Cathedral of Christ the Saviour, the six crosses on the golden domes and the dome itself, which has become a symbol of the religious revival of the post-Soviet Russia,” AsiaNews reports. Now he has a new challenge ahead of him: a 83-metre tall statue of Jesus.Tsereteli casts Europe's highest statue of Christ in bronze

It was cast in St. Petersburg and is 33 meters
high - as many meters as the years Christ lived on Earth, and its
pedestal is another 50 meters high, which, overall, makes it 83 meters
tall, the sculptor said.He also said that the sculpture
will be five meters taller than the statue of Christ in Lisbon,
believed to be the highest in Europe.Tsereteli said he
had been offered to place the monument on a Caucasus summit in Georgia.
"But I hope it will find a place in Russia. I have no doubts," Tsereteli
said.Tsereteli is president of the Russian Academy of Arts and is a
prominent sculptor. His monuments can be seen in many countries.Voice of
