jesus christ was born king of kings, your dates have nothing to do with it. For the father has proclaimed, let all angels of god worship him for his name is above all names, and all that honor the son honor the father, and all that glorify the son glorify the father; for no one has seen the father but the son. so at his birth, as the word of god through whom all things are created came humbly into this world to die for our sins, yet the angels and wise men came to worship him, even the greatest king came on a lowly donkey, and was rejected by men, yet he is the light of the world and our saviour that makes all things new. yet he is coming again with great power and he will judge evil men; the antichrist and the false prophet who have blasphemed against him.

If 1914 is the date for the end of gentile reign, and the return of Jesus, is based on the laying seige and sacking of Jeruselam, by the Babylonians, and using the formula of 360 days times seven times (and each day equals one year), the total being 2520 years from 1914 would indeed place one at 607 BCE...except Jeruselam was laid seige to in 586 BCE, not 607 BCE. Therefore the actual date for the beginning of end times would be 1893, not 1914.

If one were to use 365 days times seven added to 607 BCE (then the total being 2555), would place the beginning of the end of days would be 1948.

Even if one went and used 365 days times seven and applied it to 586 BCE, the beginning of the end of days would be 1927.

If the actual days of a year (365.25) were multiplied by seven times and added to 607 BCE and 586 BCE respectively the beginning of the end of days would be the fall of 1954 or the fall of 1933.

Regardless, 1914 (using the formula in Daniel 4), never adds up, in any of the possible scenarios.

As far as the world religion, the only one that comes even close would be socialism/communism which got its origins from Karl Marx circa 1848. True it does not have the sway it once had, but neither is it dead. However it is a religion in a great many respects, with the true believer being literally an "apostle" of the faith. The ultimate goal is a workers eutopian paradise wherein all goods and wealth are evenly distributed to all people, while the people swear allegence to the party and the state. There in short, is no room for God.

just some observations.

yes ,1914 is the end of the appointed times of the nations, or the end of the Gentiletimes as the king James version puts it, it was at this date that the one with the legal right took the kingship, and of course that one with the legal right was Jesus christ. He is now a reigning king in Gods heavenly kingdom Daniel 2;44 DANIEL 7;13-14 This is the date that Jesus recieved his aurthority ,and since then he has been riding that symbolic white horse as a warrior king. and the ride goes on . waiting for Jesus to arrive in a visible way is not the thing to do as he will not arrive in the flesh and blood of a man . he is right now a reigning king in the heavens and he is directing his people on the earth. and he is full of the active force of the most high (Jehovah) and the directing goes on , and the fullfillment of bible prophecy goes on. you mentioned that 607 was not the right date ,

the seven times of earth’s domination by worldly powers without divine interference amount to 2,520 years. Counting 2,520 years from 607 B.C.E. brings us to 1914 C.E. That is the year when "the appointed times of the nations," or seven times, ended. This means that Jesus Christ began to rule as King of God’s Kingdom in 1914.

Since the Messianic Kingdom has already been established in heaven, should we continue to pray for it to come, as taught by Jesus in the model prayer? (Matthew 6:9, 10) Yes. That petition is proper and still full of meaning. God’s Kingdom will yet assert its full power toward this earth.
The "seven times" of earth’s domination by Gentile powers without interference by God’s Kingdom therefore spanned 2,520 years. They began with the desolation of Judah and Jerusalem in the seventh lunar month (Tishri 15) of 607 B.C.E. (2 Kings 25:8, 9, 25, 26) From that point to 1 B.C.E. is 606 years. The remaining 1,914 years stretch from then to 1914 C.E. Thus, the "seven times," or 2,520 years, ended by Tishri 15, or October 4/5, 1914 C.E.
The "seventy years" that ended in the autumn of the year 537 B.C.E. must have begun, then, in the autumn of 607 B.C.E. The facts bear this out. Jeremiah chapter 52 describes the momentous events of the siege of Jerusalem, the Babylonian breakthrough, and the capture of King Zedekiah in 607 B.C.E. Then, as verse 12 states, "in the fifth month, on the tenth day," that is, the tenth day of Ab (corresponding to parts of July and August), the Babylonians burned the temple and the city. However, this was not yet the starting point of the "seventy years." Some vestige of Jewish sovereignty still remained in the person of Gedaliah, whom the king of Babylon had appointed as governor of the remaining Jewish settlements. "In the seventh month," Gedaliah and some others were assassinated, so that the remaining Jews fled in fear to Egypt. Then only, from about October 1, 607 B.C.E., was the land in the complete sense "lying desolated . . . to fulfill seventy years."—2 Ki. 25:22-26; 2 Chron. 36:20, 21.

Yes Jesus christ , he was born to be a king and he certainly is one he is right now a reigning king in the well established heavenly kingdom 2;44 Daniel 7;13-14 and yes he will come with the angels with great power to judge , its all happening in this time of the end . putting our trust in the rightful king is the way to go . those against him as a reigning king are the antichrist , and the false prophet who claims to be the way to peace on earth is certainly a false prophet indeed. there is only one way to peace on the earth and that is Gods heavenly kingdom with Jesus as a reigning king Daniel 2;44 Daniel 7;13-14 yes the false prophet sure is putting itself in the place of the only way to peace . and that is blasphemy. its best to look to the right channel, and then it will be the true way to peace on the earth. putting our trust in the only way to peace is the way to go . manmade counterfeits are not the real thing and will only fail . there is only one way to salvation and Jesus plays a very very big part in it .

SUDDEN, shocking, devastating—such will be the demise of Babylon the Great! It will be one of the most catastrophic events in all history, marking the start of the "great tribulation such as has not occurred since the world’s beginning until now, no, nor will occur again."—Matthew 24:21.
