Do you really think... that making JOKES about God's written Word helps others to believe you?? They see you as an immature child when you post childish things.
Oh, so now you’re more righteous than Elijah? He openly mocked the prophets of Baal, yet you call it ‘childish.’ Maybe your problem isn’t my words but your thin skin when Scripture cuts against falsehood. If holy sarcasm offends you, perhaps it’s because you’re siding with the wrong crowd, perhaps?
So let me get this straight: you do NOT believe the Daniel 9 seventy weeks prophecy involves numbers and math, right?
How many times have I already told you this the other day? Are you not listening, or do you simply choose to ignore the truth? The final week of Daniel 9:27 began with Christ’s death and resurrection,
inaugurating the New Covenant. That last ‘week’ is not a mere literal calendar continuation but a spiritual period beyond literal chronology, directly concerning the New Testament church.
It is also a serious mistake to insist that the 70th week must be a literal 7 years. Both Preterists and Dispensationalists fall into error by forcing their interpretations, whether tying it to Christ’s ministry, the end of Jewish animal sacrifice or even including the fall of the physical temple in 70AD, or by inventing a false 2,000-year gap to create a future tribulation. Either way, they are trapped by the same flawed assumption.
Then WHY does that Daniel 9 seventy weeks prophecy give those 3 prophetic Periods involving events according to a mathematical timeline??
I think I explained the chronology of the 70 weeks in the Daniel 9 before. The
7 and 62 weeks prophesied are specifically only to the coming of Messiah the Prince. That's the prophesy, which I already went into detail before. Then it continues,
after the 62 weeks Messiah is cut off and
He confirms the covenant for one week. It doesn't say when Messiah comes he is immediately cut off, because that would be ridiculous and confusion. There has to be time between Messiah's coming, and His cutting off. The prophesy is specifically to the coming of Messiah, and the word of God shows this official fulfillment was in 29 ad. Then the prophesy continues, after the 69 weeks Messiah is cut off, but not for Himself. So the question is, "when, after," and the answer is, obviously at the cross.
Again, these are not literal weeks or time periods that we add up like years. This last week has lasted almost 2000 years, the 62 previous only 434, and the 7 before that only 38 years. There are no missing years, there is no gap between 29AD and 33AD because there was never a prophesy of literal years. The 70th week is
after the coming of Messiah and
after the 69 weeks, as was prophesied. The cutting off of Messiah was
NEVER prophesied to be 69 and 1 week. They aren't weeks at all, it is literally 70 sevens or
"complete" time periods. I think you are trying to count the 69 weeks as literal years. That's a no- no. They aren't literally 70 weeks of years. There is one key directing us to the Jubilee period, and its not literal years! There is another key to the coming of Messiah, and its not 62 years. And another for the whole New Covenant period, and its not a week (or 7). Yet there is complete semetry, harmoney and cohesiveness to it all. Three distinct periods, one "COMPLETE" time signified by the number 70!
Actually, I think that is where a lot of date setters out there get into trouble, attempting to add literal years, when God has never prophesied it that way. Whether 70 weeks of Daniel, 1260 days in the wilderness, 1000 years of Revelation, 2300 days before the sanctuary will be cleansed, the 3 1/2 days the two witnesses lay in the streets or one hour of judgment of the unfaithful church. God doesn't work that way!! These are
all spiritual lengths of time. There are no gaps in these times, because they were never meant as literal years. They are "KEYS" directing us to certain spiritual truths occuring at certain times. The anointing, the Church age, the New Covenant Millennial period, etc.
Yet I think I understand why you can't wrap your brain around the math of that Dan.9 seventy weeks prophecy. Possibly you didn't do well in math in school, maybe too busy mocking other peoples you didn't like, or trying to act like you were smart. Every school class has a class clown ya' know.
Sounds like you're making empty accusations becasue the truth offends you. The Lord judges, and I am comfortable with it.
