    Biblical Authority

    Hebrews 6:4-6 : "It is impossible for those who have once been enlightened, who have tasted the heavenly gift, who have shared in the Holy Spirit, who have tasted the goodness of the word of God and the powers of the coming age and who have fallen away, to be brought back to repentance. To their...

    Could Russia be a bear?

    You did not answer the question. Who conquered Babylon and who did Greece conquer? There is only one answer... not understanding how in the Book of Daniel he can identify the kingdoms in no less than 3 chapters.....

    Could Russia be a bear?

    In Chapter 2 the first kingdom / beast is Babylon. In Chapter 8, the 3rd kingdom is identified as Greece. Who conquered Babylon and who did Greece conquer?

    Daniel's Final "one week" of Daniel 9:27 Made Simple

    Thank you for your thoughts! For me, I believe 8:14 tells us that the “sanctuary will be cleansed in 2300 days.” So, how can the sanctuary be cleansed? Before the cross, it would be cleansed by the sacrificial blood of the lamb being sprinkled on the Ark or the veil in the sanctuary. But...

    Daniel's Final "one week" of Daniel 9:27 Made Simple

    Jay, there is alot here within your response and I would like to discuss just one of your comments for the time being. If you do not mind, can you please tell me the following: 1) Specifically, what does verse 8:14 speak to? What is going to be accomplished according to these words? 2) Why do...

    How many kingdoms in Daniel?

    Thanks for sharing your interpretations. I have seen something like this before and it was associated with the SDA folks. But it is my belief they clay, once symbolically separated from the iron as a direct result of the cross, represents the Jewish people. After the cross, now those Jews...

    How many kingdoms in Daniel?

    Of course God came to set up His earthly kingdom which, according to Daniel, will never be destroyed but that is not what this (Daniel) is speaking about. There are 4 and only 4 kingdoms that come out of the earth or the sea. God's kingdom is not of this world.

    How many kingdoms in Daniel?

    Below are the relevant verses in Daniel (stopped at Chapter 7) that discuss how many kingdoms are found, and my interpretations on those verses. Please consider. Chapter 2 Dream Sequence: 31“You, O king, were watching; and behold, a great image! This great image, whose splendor was...

    Daniel Chapter 2

    Thanks. I just read your response to Keraz above. It is abundantly clear we are not able to come together … nothing I have mentioned have caused even a question from you to pursue further. I am sorry but I rather not continue with you. Best wishes always.

    Daniel Chapter 2

    I cannot imagine where or how you obtained your understanding of Daniel. It appears that everything that you respond is entirely based on how these verses might / could be matched to our history books. Where is the Messiah in any of your interpretations? Not anywhere. Why? How can anyone fail to...

    Daniel Chapter 2

    Sorry you feel that way. I believe I have already explained that 2:34 is when the Messiah arrived the first time and broke into pieces the iron from the clay— only. And 2:35 is the true end times when He returns. And you still can’t see it and you still insist there are 5 kingdoms. Well, that...

    Daniel Chapter 2

    No, there is absolutely no avoidance of history. I am simply not using our history books when the verses speak to the coming Messiah and His plan of salvation - they will not be ever found in our history books. The prophecies will always be found in one of the 4 kingdoms - so I am honoring the...

    Daniel Chapter 2

    Daniela was given a few visions but two prophecies- Chapter 9 is a prophecy not a vision, and the 70weeks of years prophecy. Chapter 7 was a vision that spoke of the 4 kingdoms… meaning it began in Babylon and would end at His second coming. However, most of the verses speak to the Well, the...

    Daniel Chapter 2

    No, you say they were fulfilled by AE. AE and the Ptolemy’s and the Seleucid’s are not in Daniel. They ARE in our history books. Today’s accepted interpretations DO say that Chapter 11 is almost all about them , but that is only because they are attempting to match the verses in Daniel to our...

    When was the A.O.D fulfilled?

    I guess we will simply agree to disagree. No problem.

    When was the A.O.D fulfilled?

    Oh, I forgot to mention the Messiah is first mentioned in the "destructive" verse of 26, and this "prince" of the people who will come will destroy the city / sanctuary. So, we have the restoration verses for the city / sanctuary / Messiah in 25, and the "destructive" verses for the city /...

    When was the A.O.D fulfilled?

    I don’t think so. The PEOPLE of the prince who is trying come shall destroy the city… The people who destroyed the city in 70 AD was the people under Titus of pagan Rome. The “prince” who is to come who will rule over these same people is the little horn. Regarding your following the rules...

    When was the A.O.D fulfilled?

    Sorry, I don't agree. Chapter 9 is all about the restoration that began in 457 BC and ends in the last week of the prophecy when the Messiah goes to the cross. The two "restorative" verses (24-25) speak of the restoration process, while the two "destructive" verses (26-27) speak of their...
