What did the four headed leopard in Daniel symbolize?
Most commentators believe it symbolizes Alexander the Great's Grecian kingdom and later divisions. These commentators believe in a past fulfillment. Others believe these are end time or current kingdoms. There is some agreement for the first two beasts, the lion and the bear, as Britain and Russia. There is little agreement on the leopard. I believe we need to look for a nation that raised up with four heads of government and developed world wide power, mobility and influence. I only know of one country that fits that, the US.

Most of the prophets were rejected, and were not liked by the people.
Answer
I take it that you are referring to the prophets of the old and new testements? If this is so then they were fated to preach the gospel to all who would listen. However their altimate fate was to give their lives for what they believed in. John the Beloved was the only one spared, he was to spend the rest of his life on the isle of Patmos. It was while there that He was inspired to write the Book of Revelation.

And he said: I didn't call; lie down again. And he went and lay down. And the LORD called yet again, "Samuel." And Samuel arose and went to Eli, and said: Here I am; for you called to me. And he answered: I didn't call, my son; lie down again. Now Samuel did not yet know the Lord, nor had the word of the Lord yet been revealed to him (this was his first prophecy). And the Lord called Samuel for the third time. And he (Samuel) arose and went to Eli, and said: Here I am; for you called to me. And Eli understood that it was the Lord who was calling to the child. Therefore Eli said unto Samuel: Go, lie down; and if you are called to, you shall say: Speak, Lord; for your servant is listening. So Samuel went and lay down in his place. And the Lord came, and stood, and called as at the other times: Samuel, Samuel. Then Samuel said: Speak; for your servant is listening.
