Bible scholars from both sides of the aisle should immediately recognize September 23, 2015. Unfortunately, it is probably more recognizable by those Bible scholars who worship the god of this world, satan. The god of this world who is himself one of the foremost Bible scholars. The one who even tried to use the word against our Lord Jesus Christ the Living Word, when tempting Him in the wilderness.
My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge: because thou hast rejected knowledge, I will also reject thee, that thou shalt be no priest to me: seeing thou hast forgotten the law of thy God, I will also forget thy children. Hosea 4:6
There was a book written in 2004 revolving around the date September 23, 2015. This book, “Passion, Power & Glory – Watching for the Return of the Prince of Peace”, proposed September 23, 2015 as being the end of the seven weeks contained in Daniel’s 70 week prophecy. The author appears to have been absolutely correct on this point.
Know therefore and understand, that from the going forth of the commandment to restore and to build Jerusalem unto the Messiah the Prince shall be seven weeks, and threescore and two weeks: the street shall be built again, and the wall, even in troublous times. Daniel 9:25 KJV
From the command to Israeli soldiers on June 7, 1967 to restore Jerusalem to Israel until September 23, 2015 was seven weeks of 360 day years after the manner of counting years in Babylon at the time of Daniel. September 23, 2015 was Yom Kippur, the holiest day of the year on the Jewish calendar.
Where the author went wrong was these seven weeks did not count down to the second coming of Jesus Christ. Instead they counted down to the anointing of the antichrist.
While not matching the succinctness and brevity of the original, Daniel 9:25 could be parsed as, “Know therefore and understand. From the going forth of the commandment to restore Jerusalem to Israel unto the anointing of the prince of this world shall be seven weeks of 360 day years. Also, from the going forth of the commandment to build Jerusalem and the wall unto the anointing of the Prince of Heaven shall be 62 weeks of 360 day years. The street shall be built again, and the wall, even in troublous times.”
As princes, Jesus Christ and the antichrist were both given kingdoms. The antichrist, apparently the head of the “free world”. But the kingdom Jesus Christ was given at His first coming was not of this world:
Jesus answered, My kingdom is not of this world: if my kingdom were of this world, then would my servants fight, that I should not be delivered to the Jews: but now is my kingdom not from hence. John 18:36
This was something the Jews did not understand because they thought the Anointed One as translated in English, Messiah in Hebrew, Christ in Greek, would set up David’s kingdom again when he came the first time and they would no longer be oppressed by the Roman Empire.
From the commandment to build the wall protecting Jerusalem which was given by decree through Nehemiah’s efforts, to the immaculate conception of Jesus, the anointing of the Word made flesh in the womb of Mary, appears to fit exactly 62 weeks of 360 day years. This would be the fulfillment of the 62 weeks in Daniels 70 week prophecy.
And after threescore and two weeks shall Messiah be cut off, but not for himself: and the people of the prince that shall come shall destroy the city and the sanctuary; and the end thereof shall be with a flood, and unto the end of the war desolations are determined. Daniel 9:26 KJV
Cut off, as translated above, literally means circumcised. After 62 weeks Jesus Christ at 8 days outside the womb per the Law was circumcised. However, He had no need to be circumcised to enter a covenant relationship with God, because He is God. He did not need it for himself but as our example to fulfill all righteousness. Then the people of the other prince that was to come, the prince of this world, destroyed Jerusalem and the Temple in 70 AD. The people are those of the Roman Empire. The prince in this case is the antichrist, apparently over the iron and clay people of Rome.
And he shall confirm the covenant with many for one week: and in the midst of the week he shall cause the sacrifice and the oblation to cease, and for the overspreading of abominations he shall make it desolate, even until the consummation, and that determined shall be poured upon the desolate. Daniel 9:27 KJV
Jesus Christ came to Earth the first time to confirm the 7000 year covenant God made with Abraham and his descendants, both natural born and adopted, including those believers who preceded Abraham. God confirmed this in the pattern of Abraham being asked to sacrifice his own son Isaac, to offering His own Son instead, Jesus Christ, as payment for the sin of Adam and his descendants. Like the generation in the wilderness, 40 years later in 70 AD, God used the Roman Empire to cause the temple sacrifice and oblation to cease. Rome destroyed and made desolate Jerusalem, even pouring salt among the ground to make desolate even the plant life.
What about Jesus Christ being anointed by John the Baptist followed by the anointing of the Holy Spirit when Jesus Christ began His ministry? Indeed He was anointed again. Water Baptism is indeed a form of circumcision of the heart. But since Jesus was already anointed for assuming His heavenly kingdom, this baptism of water and the Holy Spirit could be taken as His anointing for when He assumes His earthly kingdom at His second coming.
Now, the greater anoints and sends the lesser.
Verily, verily, I say unto you, The servant is not greater than his lord; neither he that is sent greater than he that sent him. John 13:16
Which would mean that John the Baptist as a man would have to be greater than Jesus as a man. Again, as a man only, speaking of Jesus as the Son of Man and not speaking of Jesus as the Son of God. And Scripture indeed confirms this.
Verily I say unto you, Among them that are born of women there hath not risen a greater than John the Baptist: notwithstanding he that is least in the kingdom of heaven is greater than he. John 13:16
Which also means that the one who anointed and sent the antichrist must be greater in the kingdom of satan than the antichrist himself. Well, at least at the time of anointing. For we also know that John the Baptist had to decrease while Jesus Christ increased.
Which, for many of those who were watching may have had a pretty good idea who was probably going to show up on 9/23/2015 in Washington D.C. Yes, it was Pope Francis who became pope on 3/13/2013. Which makes one wonder if Pope Benedict XVI stepped aside so the greater could anoint the prince of the “free world”, the antichrist.

There are those who noticed they were standing between the Jachin and Boaz columns so named after the columns in Solomon’s temple and the prophetic significance. Of course there were also those who noticed exactly one prophetic week of 360 day years before 9/23/2015 on 10/29/2008 when he presented himself as savior to the world in a 30 minute infomercial which preempted the start of a World Series game.
This infomercial prominently focused on “one week”. The surface meaning would be counting the date 10/29/2008 to Election Day 11/4/2008 would be one week of days. The hidden meaning would be counting one week of 360 day prophetic years.
Being nominated for the Nobel Peace Prize before he even took office and then awarded the Nobel Peace Prize shortly after he had taken office would appear the world had indeed accepted him as their “prince of peace”.
So what would be more appropriate than turning over a bioweapon to China the days immediately following his being anointed?
