    Who, or what, is the dreaded bogey man of prophecy?

    9:24f-Bring in everlasting righteousness Daniel had recorded the three types of sin in 9:24: c, d, and e. Man has been guilty of these since the fall of Adam. As a result of his sin, Adam (man) was removed from the Garden. His sinful nature could not be found in His presence. There is no...

    Verifying The Time Prophecies By History.

    Hobie, there is no question that Titus and the Roman army completely destroyed everthing in Jerusalem and beyond. Nothing was sparred. This was prophecised in Chapter 9 of Daniel. But let me ask you a question: Was the physical destruction of the Temple, the Sanctuary, the walls and the...

    Daniel Chapter 2

    Thanks Marty. First, I am not a student of Hebrew language AT ALL, but it is not written like our English language. Second, Daniel maybe written in an “apocalyptic” style, and third, one can easily see the many translations that are out there … they can say very different things. And one other...

    Romans 11:25 - Partially blinded

    Very true! But God loves ALL… and we are all sinners. But, if He is still “blinding” them in part (whatever that might mean), then ALL Israel will be saved… but what then do we do with the Gentiles over the past 2000 years who did not accept Jesus? Talk about a “mystery”!

    Romans 11:25 - Partially blinded

    Very nice and thank you. If you do not mind…. I am still confused to what is meant by “blindness in part…” And here is how I am looking at this: when Jesus went to the cross, there was not one Jew who believed He was their Messiah- not one. After the Sabbath, they went to His grave site to...

    Daniel Chapter 2

    Marty, He doesn’t! His arrival is found in the “restorative” verse; He will come AFTER 7 and 62 weeks. This of course means, there is only one week remaining in the 70 weeks prophecy. He will arrive on the first day of the 70th week to begin His ministry. This is the same day He will be baptize...

    Daniel Chapter 2

    I still don't know what you are telling me about verses 41-43. Can you start by telling me who the symbols refer to, what time period is being discussed, please take one verse at a time and unpack it and explain what it means. It is not easy by no means, but it is very specific.

    Daniel Chapter 2

    Unfortunately, that response is quite vague and I don’t see how it can be interpreted from anything in Chapter 2. Can you tell me what verses 41-43 mean to you ? How do they explain or reveal more details about the 4 kingdoms in the “dream sequence?” Chapter 2 does not provide us with a...

    Romans 11:25 - Partially blinded

    25 For I do not desire, brethren, that you should be ignorant of this mystery, lest you should be wise in your own [f]opinion, that blindness in part has happened to Israel until the fullness of the Gentiles has come in. There maybe a few different interpretations regarding the above verse in...

    Daniel Chapter 2

    You mention that Chapter 2 has been fulfilled. What does that mean? Doesn’t this chapter identify the 4 and only 4 kingdoms- Isn’t that what is given to us in the “dream sequence”? Later, in verses 40 - 45, the “interpretation sequence” verses, Daniel gives us further details that will take...

    The six things of Daniel 9:24

    I would respectfully ask that you read much more of Acts - both before verse 26 and after to understand what Paul was having to go through after he returned from his missionary work and can back to Jerusalem and was cornered by Jews claiming he no longer followed the laws of Mosess or the...

    The six things of Daniel 9:24

    I don't believe that is true. He spent 3 years in the desert with Jesus where Jesus showed him everything that was written about Him in the Scriptures..... that He was the Passover Lamb of God who took away the sin of the world... Please show me anywhere that Paul still kept the daily...

    Book of Daniel - Relevant time periods

    Dougg, sorry to disagree, but Chapter 9 is about our Messiah and His death on the cross. There is no anti-christ figure in all of the Scriptures. There is a real evil one identified as the little horn in Chapters 7,8 ,9 and 11. He is the papacy who will appropriate His church by the end of the...

    Book of Daniel - Relevant time periods

    There are only three time period where we can place the actors or events found within the 12 chapters of Daniel. This is no mystery and should be easily accepted ... however, it is the actual placement of these verses that cause the misinterpretations and completely change the prophetic messages...

    Book of Daniel - Relevant time periods

    Okay and thanks. Below is the verse in Chapter 8 that specifically mentions the 2300 evenings and mornings prophecy. The purpose or the fulfillment during this period will be the cleansing of the Sanctuary. So, the question I believe that should be asked is how, who or when will or can the...

    The six things of Daniel 9:24

    Not sure what is your point. Sorry. If you would like to elaborate further I would like to hear your thoughts.

    Book of Daniel - Relevant time periods

    Thank you. I have never heard that interpretation before. I guess the best question to ask is what is to be accomplished during / by these 2300 days? Are they days or years? Does the fulfillment of the purpose behind this time prophecy require the conversion to years? Thanks.

    Book of Daniel - Relevant time periods

    Hey Trevor, just wanted to let you know that I completed a response to you last evening ...... but accidentally must have hit a key on the laptop that completely erased everything. I will respond to you later on, but in the meantime, if you want to send me your interpretation om the 2300 days...

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

    If I may, if you look within the verses, it specifically tells us that Gabriel tells Daniel it is for "his people and his city." Meaning, it does not point to God's people or city. This is because it is speaking to everything (physical and non-physical) elements that were destroyed or taken...

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

    Well, I understand your comment but I can assure you that without the aid of the Holy Spirit, I could not have interpreted much of Daniel. It literally took me 7 months just to find the key to Chapter 11. It was the most difficult Chapter to understand. And only at the end of the 7th month did I...
