Why "Messiah being Cut-Off" is
not the AOD:
#1 - All of Scripture, beginning in Genesis, Prophecies/Speaks of the Messiah as the Way of Salvation = in JOY
And in that day you will say:
“O Lord, I will praise You;
Though You were angry with me,
Your anger is turned away, and You comfort me.
2Behold, God
is my salvation,
I will trust and not be afraid;
‘For Yah, the Lord,
is my strength and song;
He also has become my salvation.’ ”
And Hannah prayed and said:
“My heart rejoices in the Lord;
My horn is exalted in the Lord.
I smile at my enemies,
Because I rejoice in Your salvation.
2“No one is holy like the Lord,
For
there is none besides You,
Nor
is there any rock like our God.
Yet it pleased the Lord to bruise Him;
He has put
Him to grief.
When You make His soul an offering for sin,
He shall see
His seed, He shall prolong
His days,
And the pleasure of the Lord shall prosper in His hand.
11[r]He shall see the labor of His soul,
and be satisfied.
By His knowledge My righteous Servant shall justify many,
For He shall bear their iniquities.
12Therefore I will divide Him a portion with the great,
And He shall divide the spoil with the strong,
Because He poured out His soul unto death,
And He was numbered with the transgressors,
And He bore the sin of many,
And made intercession for the transgressors.
Therefore we also, since we are surrounded by so great a cloud of witnesses, let us lay aside every weight, and the sin which so easily ensnares
us, and let us run with endurance the race that is set before us,
looking unto Jesus, the author and finisher of
our faith, who
for the joy that was set before Him endured the cross,
despising the shame, and has sat down at the right hand of the throne of God.
#2 -
The LORD Jesus Christ separated Himself from the "Abomination of Desolation"
So when you see standing in the holy place ‘the abomination of desolation,’ spoken of by the prophet Daniel (let the reader understand),
16then let those who are in Judea flee to the mountains.
17Let no one on the housetop come down to retrieve anything from his house.
18And let no one in the field return for his cloak.
19How miserable those days will be for pregnant and nursing mothers!
20Pray that your flight will not occur in the winter or on the Sabbath.
21For at that time there will be great tribulation, unseen from the beginning of the world until now, and never to be seen again.
22If those days had not been cut short, nobody would be saved. But for the sake of the elect, those days will be cut short.
23At that time, if anyone says to you, ‘Look, here is the Christ!’ or ‘There He is!’ do not believe it.
24For false Christs and false prophets will appear and perform great signs and wonders to deceive even the elect, if that were possible.
25See, I have told you in advance.
