"Go your way Daniel, because the words are closed up and sealed until the time of the end...none of the wicked will understand, but those who are wise will understand." (Daniel 12:9-10)The Archangel Michael told Daniel that the prophecies would be sealed until the time of the end. Discover how the prophecies in the book of Daniel are being unsealed in the events taking place today.Since Daniel was told that the wise will understand the message and lead many to righteousness, while the wicked will not grasp its meaning and will continue in their wickedness, it is imperative for everyone living in these end times to diligently examine and attempt to comprehend the vital message Daniel has recorded for us.Daniel's visions were given for those living at the time of the end. The wise will diligently search the word of the Lord and ask for wisdom in order to understand God's plan as outlined in Daniel's five visions.1) Daniel 2 - Covers the entire time of the Gentiles from 605-6 BC when the first dispersion of the Jews (Diaspora) took place until the time in the very near future when a remnant will flee from the persecution under the Antichrist for 31/2 years.2) Daniel 7 - The four beasts in chapter 7 are different from the four kingdoms in chapter 2. They represent four nations that arise at the time of the end just prior to the second coming of Christ. Two of the four beasts have already surfaced (Great Britain and Russia), and the two remaining beasts: the Arab coalition of countries and the alliance of the United States and Europe are about to emerge on the world scene.3) Daniel 8 - Daniel's little horn in this chapter corresponds with the false prophet in the book of Revelation. This deceitful person will destroy many by peace and cause everyone to worship the coming Antichrist.4) Daniel 9 - God's extended period of grace was shown to the Jewish people over a period of 70 weeks of years or 490 years (7 x 70). Discover the wonderful message God has for all of humanity in one of the most misunderstood Scriptures concerning the latter days. This vision reflects God's unlimited forgiveness Jesus brings to anyone who will call upon Him. 5) Daniel 10-12 - The final vision of the time of the end, which was delivered by the preincarnate Christ, covers the final 31/2 years before the second coming of Christ.

Houston is not a song. It is a symphony composed by a diverse population and scored for an orchestra of talents and abilities. Its melody weaves a complicated tale that dances in and out of the rhythm that waxes and wanes with the music. The busy violins sing the song of those who labored to build the city, its leafy boulevards and wide streets, its parks and its homes. The beat of the percussion section are the workers who lay down a complex, continuous cadence - a base for the melody and harmony. Above it all is the high sweet theme of philanthropy and giving - the signature tune of a city that, when approached wisely, responds to the needs of the Houston and its citizens. The conductors change with the city's needs. Sometimes it is a mayor; sometimes a county judge, a district attorney, a sheriff, but the harmony is strongest when a civic leader steps to the fore. Daniel Calmes Arnold is one of those leaders. Unlike some of the earlier civic chiefs who led by a fiat and force of will, Dan took the collaborative route. Houston might have been a small city when he was born in 1930, but by the 1960s, it was an orchestra of forces. He had the touch that could marshal forces for progress, making more friends than foes. Those friends became his army for progress. Houston is Dan's city and his home. He was born here. He grew up in its leafy green neighborhoods. He played in its parks and on its public tennis courts. He went to school in Houston, and then he left for college and law school in Austin. He brought his expertise and talents back to practice law. He reared a strong, vibrant family in its neighborhood. His wife, Beverly, is also a native Houstonian, and his passions became hers. They took responsibility for helping the city that had nurtured them and their families. The city was not only his responsibility. It was his delight, his bane and his success. When Houston was in trouble, he came to its aid. When its people needed services and care, when the city's leaders needed someone to solve a problem, Dan stood ready. It was not his "day job" or his vocation. It has been his avocation and his pleasure to ensure that the city he loved grows to meet the needs of all of its people, regardless of income, race, creed, ethnicity and color. Dan is a problem solver. No community exists without problems, but few have had men with the dedication and verve of Daniel C. Arnold to look for answers. This book exists not to celebrate Dan but instead to provide a blueprint for the future. He will continue to work for Houston while breath remains in his body. He knows that there are others ready to take the torch from him. Their job will not be easy, but with perseverance and the support of the citizens of Houston, they will continue to improve this city. Houston is a great city, but it can get better. The leaders of the future will take it to new heights because of men like Dan, who heard the music from the beginning and could orchestrate the future.
