Fay,That was very powerful, what you wrote:
Revelation 1:7 alone, negates the "He" in Daniel 9:27 has being the AC. If one believes that, then one will believe that the AC confirms an existing covenant with the many. For a start....what existing man-made covenant is in operation at present? The Oslo accords or some other tenuous agreement? If one is to believe that the soon-to-be "Deal of the Century" is a confirmation of an existing agreement that will be "confirmed or strengthened" for a period of 7 years - then one is misled, at best. Read the entirety of Daniel 9 through carefully. Our LORD Jesus was cut off in the middle of the 7. Our LORD Jesus confirmed and strengthened an existing covenant between God Almighty and the people. Our LORD Jesus put an end to sacrifice and offering. His sacrifice being sufficient for all. Our LORD Jesus gave us a new covenant - strengthening and affirming the old covenant by adding salvation and mercy through grace.
Jesus perfectly fulfilled the law, keeping the covenant.Jesus was the perfect fulfillment of the types of sacrifices of that covenant.Jesus thus confirmed that covenant.Jesus also made a new covenant, putting an end to the sacrifices of the first covenant.
