1 | The rise of Antichrist, we are close. | Dan 9:27 | DAIRYLEADER5 | 97952 | ||
Candy Lee, Rosh Hashana, Happy New Year,Jewish, 5764. Prophecy must take place before its true, or should we say proven. There are a series of events that must take place before the antichrist arises. first lets look at Babylon. Isa 13,14 Jer. 50,51, describe the destruction of babylon at the Day of the Lord. Look at Jer. 51:26 "they shall not take from you a stone for a corner nor a stone for a foundation, but you shall be desolate forever." This hasnt happened, stones have been used from babylon to build at least 4 other cities, includeing Rome.Isa. 13:20 states, "It will never be inhabited...."., Now if you look at Rev. 14:8, 18:2, Isa 21:9, Babylon is fallen is fallen.... Notice in all these verses its mentioned twice, The reason, according in ancient rabbinic rule of interpretation, says that when the bible mentions something twice, it means that the event will happen twice. Why did we mention Babylon, because the events of Babylon are connected with the 70th week of Daniel. Look at Dan 9:24-27. Here is the peace treaty thast Isreal will sign with the antichrist and no where in iSREALY hISTORY HAS THIS TAKEN PLACE, EVEN THE iSREALIES COMFIRM THIS. lOOK AT EZK. 31:1-6, the first war of the armies from the north, hasnt taken place yet./ Isa 28:16-19, and also where in Isrealy History ,did they hafe to hire outsiders to bury dead soldiers which took 7 mths. to bury the dead, no where it haSnt happened yet. Look at eze. 39:1-28. This is just a start, whats you next question. DL5 | ||||||
2 | The rise of Antichrist, we are close. | Dan 9:27 | alanh | 124412 | ||
The antichrist has come, "Little children, it is the last hour: and as ye heard that antichrist cometh, even now have there arisen many antichrists; whereby we know that it is the last hour"(1 John 2:18); "Who is the liar but he that denieth that Jesus is the Christ? This is the antichrist, even he that denieth the Father and the Son." (1 John 2:22); "and every spirit that confesseth not Jesus is not of God: and this is the spirit of the antichrist, whereof ye have heard that it cometh; and now it is in the world already" (1 John 4:3). As you can see the antichrist, "every spirit that confesseth not Jesus is not of God," is already among us he (they) are not yet to come. Daniel 9 is a prophetic chronology enabling the studious Hebrew to know when the promised Messiah would die for the sins of humanity. The chronology of this prophetic context involves three things: (a) a commencement point; (b) a duration period; and (c) a concluding event. The beginning point was to coincide with a command to “restore and rebuild Jerusalem.” The time span between the starting point and the concluding event was specified as “seventy weeks.” This would be seventy weeks of seven days each — a total of 490 days. Each day was to represent a year in prophetic history. Most conservative scholars hold that the symbolism denotes a period of approximately 490 years Finally, the terminal event would be the “cutting off,” (i.e., the death) of the Anointed One (9:26). [NOTE: Actually, the chronology is divided into three segments, the total of which represents 486½ years. This would be the span between the command to restore Jerusalem, and the Messiah’s death.] If one is able to determine the date of the commencement point of this prophecy, it then becomes a relatively simple matter to add to that the time-duration specified in the text, thus concluding the precise time when the Lord was to be slain. Let us therefore narrow our focus regarding this matter. There are but three possible dates for the commencement of the seventy-week calendar. First, Zerubbabel led a group of Hebrews out of captivity in 536 B.C. This seems to be an unlikely beginning point, however, because 486 years from 536 B.C. would end at 50 B.C., which was eighty years prior to Jesus’ death. Second, Nehemiah led a band back to Canaan in 444 B.C. Is this the commencement point for computing the prophecy? Probably not, for 486 years after 444 B.C. ends at A.D. 42 — a dozen years after the death of Christ. However, in 457 B.C., Ezra took a company from Babylon back to Jerusalem. Does this date work mathematically? Indeed. If one starts at 457 B.C., and goes forward for 486 ½ years, the resulting date is A.D. 30 — the very year of Christ’s crucifixion! In “the midst” of the seventieth week, i.e., after the fulfillment of the 486½ years, the Anointed One was to be “cut off.” This is a reference to the death of Jesus. Isaiah similarly foretold that Christ would be “cut off out of the land of the living” (Isaiah 53:8). But why are the “seventy weeks” of Daniel’s prophecy divided into three segments — seven weeks, 62 weeks, and the “midst” of one week? There was purpose in this breakdown. The first division of “seven weeks” (literally, forty-nine years) covers that period of time during which the actual rebuilding of Jerusalem would be underway, following the Hebrews’ return to Palestine (9:25b). This was the answer to Daniel’s prayer (9:16). That reconstruction era was to be one of “troublous times.” The Jews’ enemies had harassed them in earlier days (see Ezra 4:1-6), and they continued to do so in the time of Ezra and Nehemiah. The second segment of sixty-two weeks (434 years), when added to the previous forty-nine, yields a total of 483 years. When this figure is computed from 457 B.C., it terminates at A.D. 26. This was the year of Jesus’ baptism and the beginning of His public ministry. Finally, the “midst of the week” (3½ years) reflects the time of the Lord’s preaching ministry. This segment of the prophecy concludes in A.D. 30 — the year of the Savior’s death. |
