Dear Doves,

Matthew 24:6
"And you will hear of WARS AND RUMORS OF WARS. See that YOU ARE NOT TROUBLED; for ALL THESE THINGS MUST COME TO PASS, but THE END IS NOT YET. For nation will rise against nation and kingdom against kingdom."

This is what is happening in the middle-east today and will continue to happen right up until the 'GREAT TRIBULATION' BEGINS IN ISRAEL. The following is what the 'man dressed in linen' told Daniel:

Daniel 10:14 & 21
(14)"Now I have come to explain to you what will happen to YOUR PEOPLE in the future, for the vision concerns A TIME YET TO COME."
(21)"First I will tell you what is written in the BOOK OF TRUTH"

The from Daniel 11:2 through Daniel 11:30 the 'man dressed in linen' describes the turmoil of war and rumors of war in the middle-east leading up to the time that the 'abomination that causes desolation is set up' in the temple in Jerusalem in Daniel 11:31. He then tells Daniel about the 'great tribulation' which begins in Israel when the abomination is set up in the temple in Jerusalem.

Daniel 12:1
'..There will be a time of tribulation such as has not happened from the beginning of nations until then. But at that time your people - everyone whose name is found written in the book - will be delivered."

He then tells Daniel how long it is from the time the abomination is set up to the end:

Daniel 12:11
"From the time that the daily sacrifice is abolished and the abomination that causes desolation is set up, THERE WILL BE 1,290 DAYS (ie. 43 Hebrew months of 30 days each).

The last-half of the '70th Week of Daniel' is '1,290 days in length' which is '43 Hebrew months'. We need only to watch what is happening in the middle-east these days to witness the events described in Daniel 11:2-30 leading up to the setting up of the abomination in Jerusalem.  

Come lord Jesus!
