    Daniel`s 70 Weeks.

    Hi Phoneman777, I am not here to discuss historic or contemporary positions - Jesuit errors, Jehovah`s Witnesses, etc but to discuss scripture. If you want to do that then I am here. God bless, Marilyn.

    Daniel`s 70 Weeks.

    Hi Wormwood, Glad we have some agreement. Now you said - I don`t think you quite understand when I say `Christ is the centre of God`s word.` I don`t just mean it is telling of His manifestation or a letter to early Christians, those are still in the historic context, (which is important)...

    Daniel`s 70 Weeks.

    Hi Phoneman777, Sorry if it seemed condescending but my heart was to say the reality. If any of the past positions were the full truth then by now we would have been led into the whole counsel of God as the early Christians knew. As we well know & the Apostle Paul warned his disciples, that...

    Daniel`s 70 Weeks.

    Hi Phoneman777, The days of one position countering the other are over brother, for it is time to get out God`s word & actually discuss scripture NOT POSITIONS. I have many more topics to share so you may want to discuss scripture & not retreat behind a certain position thinking you have all...

    Daniel`s 70 Weeks.

    Hi Wormwood, I so agree with you bro. It is one of the biggest errors today - all about me...... However what I am also saying is that after we have seen the passage in its setting & sometimes there are lessons for us, then we are to view it in the whole context of God`s word in relation to...

    Daniel`s 70 Weeks.

    Hi Wormwood, Just like to comment on what you said. Now we know from God`s word that God spoke to individuals, groups, nations, etc at various times & for the future. What God is saying to these different ones/groups are not just words just related to the audience, nor are these words related...

    Countering Jehovah's Witnesses

    Hi Webers_home, Pleased to meet you. I have appreciated what I have read. Thank you. I am on holidays is sunny Queensland & while walking along board walk I met these people with religious material. I knew they were JW`s & had a chat. I zeroed in on asking them questions & especially...

    Daniel`s 70 Weeks.

    Hi Kevin, Nice to know your name, & thanks for sharing. You must not remember that I said I agreed that the Lord was king before His manifestation & Prince (commander) so no problem there. As to `Michael,` well there is never a sign of Deity when we read about him in God`s word. Now interesting...

    Daniel`s 70 Weeks.

    Hi Phoneman, Nice that you are interested in my thoughts re Jesus` birth etc, however for now I`m just looking at what God`s word says regarding the 70 weeks. We know that to measure something accurately we need to have a starting point. If we don`t then it is just an approximation or...

    Hi Marcus, Just want to say I have appreciated your comments & agree with you. God`s word is so clear & it is good to read what the Lord has shown you. May we all continue to listen to His Holy Spirit as He clarifies more truth to us, - the Body of Christ. Blessings, Marilyn.

    Daniel`s 70 Weeks.

    for iniquity, to bring in everlasting righteousness, to seal both vision and prophet, and to anoint a most holy place.” (Daniel 9:24, ESV) Seventy weeks we decreed to bring an end to sin and atone for iniquity, not to bring an end to the world. Sin was defeated and atonement was provided at...

    Daniel`s 70 Weeks.

    Hi Phoneman777, Dear bro, I don`t think you are reading my comments in detail. The 69 weeks are I believe 69 x 7 of 30 months. So exactly measured in days as I said. So....where are your scriptures to give the EXACT days of 69 weeks, (or your 70 weeks) & not just an `about,` ......giving just...

    Daniel`s 70 Weeks.

    Hi Phoneman777, God`s word makes very clear mathematical sense, right to the very day. _____I________________________________________________I______ Mar. 5, 444BC……………………..(69 x 7)………………………Mar. 30, 33AD…….

    authority over angels, demons, both Jew and Gentile, even the very elements long before His Triumphant Entry. But you argue that His keeping all this authority from public view denies Him the right to be called "Messiah the Prince". Would you argue that His keeping His divinity from public view...

    Daniel`s 70 Weeks.

    Hi Phoneman777, OK. Let`s have a closer look at what the disciples said and who people thought Jesus was. `(Andrew) He first found his own brother Simon, & said to him, “We have found the Messiah, which is being interpreted, the Christ.`(John 1: 41) `When Jesus came into the region of...

    A Guide to Studying the Scriptures

    Hi Wormwood, Very good points there with great explanations. What has helped me over the years is - 1. Christ is the centre of God`s word not us. It is all about God revealing Christ, His character & His purposes through Christ. 2.The 3 groups that God has purposes for, - the Body of Christ...

    How can we welcome the Lord’s second coming?

    Hi Hora.J, That Scripture (Matt. 24: 23 - 24) refers to the people of Israel going through the tribulation, as they will be looking for their Messiah (on earth) to save them from the world`s armies. Christ will come in power & great glory to deliver them & every eye will see Him. They are not...

    Zechariah 13:8-9 and Daniel 12:9-10

    Hi Hora.J, I believe God`s word is referring to the people of Israel that will go through the tribulation. Marilyn.

    Daniel`s 70 Weeks.

    Hi @Phoneman777, I believe Jesus was anointed Messiah, by the Holy Spirit however He was not recognised as Messiah THE PRINCE at that time. That is a big difference there, bro. The triumphal entry is about Jesus APPEARING AS A COMMANDER. Prince – Heb. word `nagid,` meaning a commander...
