Hi Jane:
Other
than salvation, in my opinion, you have touched on the most important
subject the modern 'end-time' Christian should absolutely get right"
which is the identity of the 'he' in Daniel 9:27! Why would I say such a
thing? Simply put, the entire weight of prophecy rests on the identity
of the 'he' in Daniel 9:27! You see the Scriptures contained in Daniel
9:24-27 are the absolute BACKBONE, and KEY to ALL prophetic truth. In my
opinion, the subtle serpent has switched keys over the last 100 or so
years, , and consequently turned the prophecy world upside down!
So
now Jane, I suppose you have already figured out I believe the 'he' in
Daniel 9:27 is Christ. I put together a little video a few years ago
that can explains this. Here is the link if you are interested:
Simply
put, Christ was the confirmer of the covenant, not antichrist! Please
read the 2 Scriptures below, and ask yourself does no Scripture states
the antichrist confirms anything:
Gal 3:17 And this I say, that
the covenant, that was confirmed before of God in Christ, the law,
which was four hundred and thirty years after, cannot disannul, that it
should make the promise of none effect.
Rom 15:8 Now I say that Jesus Christ was a minister of the circumcision for the truth of God, to confirm the promises made unto the fathers:
And notice Jane these two Scriptures in Isaiah:
Isa 42:6 I the
LORD have called thee in righteousness, and will hold thine hand, and will keep
thee, and give thee for a covenant of the people, for a light of the Gentiles;
Isa 49:8
Thus saith the LORD, In an acceptable time have I heard thee, and in a
day of salvation have I helped thee: and I will preserve thee, and give thee
for a covenant of the people, to establish the earth, to cause to inherit the
desolate heritages;
So to sum it up Jane, I hope you will prayerfully consider, in light of plentiful Scriptural evidence, even the slightest possibility
Christ is actually the 'he' in Daniel 9:27. It took the Holy Spirit
over 2-years to convince me, and I certainly wouldn't expect you to
receive this truth in one day. Here is a graphic I made a few years ago
illustrating the understanding of the identity of the 'he' to two trees
with tap roots. Either way you believe, the opposite way will
produce opposite results (fruit). If you believe the 'he' is antichrist,
your going to be looking for a European or American (BHO) antichrist to
make (confirm) a 7-year peace treaty before the start of 70th Week of
Daniel, with Israel, only to have this false peace treaty to be broken
mid-way at the 3 1/2 year point. Oh, and by the way, we won't have to
worry about it anyway, because we will be raptured right before the
antichrist is revealed. Or simply put, if you believe the 'he' is
Christ, your going to believe a Muslim Middle-East antichrist
(beast=Mahdi) will arise North of Israel, and invade Israel leading
hoards of Islamic murders slaughtering over 4-million Jews at the start
of the 3 1/2 year time of Jacobs trouble, ending at Armageddon and
Christ's physical return. There won't be any 7-year peace covenant, and
the pre-wrath rapture most likely will commence a short time (6
months??) after the second half of the 70th Week commences (noting the
first 3 1/2 years of the 70th Week ended at the crucifixion).
In His Service,
