Daniel & Revelation: Delineating the Difference

Saying, What you see, write in a book, and send it to the seven churches.  
Revelation 1:11
 
"The book of Daniel is a history of the ruling of the Most High among the kingdoms of men; the book of Revelation is a history of the ruling of the Most High in the church.  
Daniel is national history; Revelation is church history.

--In Revelation there are some kingdoms dealt with, national powers, but they come in subordinate to the church history. 

--In Daniel there is some church history; but it is subordinate to the great subject of national powers.

The angels are the angels of the seven churches. 
And the seven candlesticks are the seven churches. 
Q: And where is Christ seen, and what is he doing?
A: Walking about in the midst of the candlesticks. 
But the candlesticks are the seven churches." A.T. Jones
