I don't believe that there will be any future antichrist of 7 year tribulation.

What I believe Jesus was saying in the Olivet discourse is that when first Century Israel would see the Romany army surrounding Jerusalem what happed during the Days of the Maccabees would soon happen again but this time there would be no Judas Maccabees to save them.

See what Jesus Himself taught below

Matthew 24
15 “So when you see standing in the holy place ‘the abomination that causes desolation,’[a] spoken of through the prophet Daniel—let the reader understand— 16 then let those who are in Judea flee to the mountains.

Luke 21
20 “When you see Jerusalem being surrounded by armies, you will know that its desolation is near. 21 Then let those who are in Judea flee to the mountains, let those in the city get out, and let those in the country not enter the city.
Oh, thanks for your reply!

I would ask that you consider this prophecy is speaking to the future time- after Jesus mentioned it to His disciples, but to the time of the cross when He, by virtue of His sacrifice as the once and perfect sacrifice for our sins, would do away with any further need of the animal sacrifices. They would no longer be necessary. Jesus was speaking about Himself.

Jesus told us Himself what it was in the verses that I provided.

What He was saying is that the sacrifices that continued after the cross were an abomination and rejection of Jesus and what He did thus He had to destroy the temple.

Are you sure? Perhaps He was telling them to remember His words after He was crucified... and they would realize He was talking about His going to the cross? After the cross, the Temple, the Sanctuary, the levitical ceremonies were no longer necessary -they fulfilled God's mission after the Messiah. And, of course, ALL the disciples would SEE this... no only would the physical items (Temple, etc.) no longer be anymore than mere physical structures without any further purpose in God's plan of salvation, but all the disciples would not witness the 70 AD destruction. What is more devastating and important, the cross or the physical structures that no longer have any purpose?

Why are you having a problem with what Jesus specified below he explained it?

Matthew 24
15 “So when you see standing in the holy place ‘the abomination that causes desolation,’[a] spoken of through the prophet Daniel—let the reader understand— 16 then let those who are in Judea flee to the mountains.

Luke 21
20 “When you see Jerusalem being surrounded by armies, you will know that its desolation is near. 21 Then let those who are in Judea flee to the mountains, let those in the city get out, and let those in the country not enter the city.


Not every disciples would see live to see Jerusalem surrounded by the armies either?

Jesus used different descriptions because Matthew was writing to the Jews who would of understood what Jesus meant and Theophilus was a gentile.

So, if I understand your interpretations, you are saying that the "abomination" is to be defined as the destruction of the physical elements (Temple, etc.) as the punishment for rejecting Him rather than their terrible / horrible / most unbeliveably destructive decision on their part to crucify their own Messiah?

Yes, in Chapter 9, Daniel prophecies the destruction of the city and the sanctuary, but the "abomination" is so much greater than the destruction of a mere building / even the city, that had already once been completely destroyed (Babylon) and have been "done away with" as a result of the cross.

Why isn't Jesus pointing to the cross in Matthew 24:15 and Mark 13:14? There is a noticeable difference in these two statements by Jesus... and only He would know why He was making these purposeful distinctions?

Daniel 26: c,d,e and f all speak of the destruction of the city and the sanctuary in 70 AD., while 9:27 is speaking about the Messiah.

No 70AD was a result of both rejecting and killing their God and Messiah.

Jesus already answered that question as I posted the verses twice I'm not sure why you don't accept what He said

I believe that Daniel 9 is talking about the desecration and the events of AE not 70AD

This is not what verse 17 says:

Pro 6:17
A proud look, a lying tongue, and hands that shed innocent blood,

The "shedding of innocent blood" is not an abomination. It's the "HANDS" that shed the innocent blood - murder.
I'm sure all here understand what I said, albeit I did not quote the literal words verbatim.

But, since you are correct in your point, then you should also clearly understand that the HANDS of Israel were directly involved with the "shedding of Christ's innocent blood". Hopefully for your sake (except to evangelize them), you don't favor yourself among them and their self inflicted curse**:
Mat. 27
[22] Pilate saith unto them, What shall I do then with Jesus which is called Christ? They all say unto him, Let him be crucified.
[23] And the governor said, Why, what evil hath he done? But they cried out the more, saying, Let him be crucified.
[24] When Pilate saw that he could prevail nothing, but that rather a tumult was made, he took water, and washed his hands before the multitude, saying, I am innocent of the blood of this just person: see ye to it.
[25] Then answered all the people, and said, **His [innocent] blood be on us, and on our children.
Now you know who it was that committed "the abomination that maketh desolate".

I apologize, I am not following you. What do you mean that "Jesus already answered that question?

Regarding Daniel 9, please let me know if you agree with this, and if not, please tell me why...

In the 70 weeks of years prophecy (9:24-27), Gabriel will give Daniel the prophecy that addresses God's plan to restore His people and His city back from Babylon after their 70 years in captivity. Everything that was either destroyed or taken away by the Babylonians MUST be fully and completely restored. Thus, we have two sets of interpretations within these 4 verses.

In verses 9:24-25, Daniel is given the "restorative" verses. Withing these two verses, God will reveal how everything will be completely restored once they are allowed to leave Babylon. In 9:24, Daniel is given the most important part of the prophecy - those requirements or elements the Messiah will fulfill during His time on earth. This will be completed during the last week of the 70 weeks prophecy. This final week was "set aside" by God for the Messiah's work of salvation. But verse 9:25 would represent those requirements that must be completed by the Jews themselves. It will be their responsibility to restore the rebuilding of the physical elements; the Temple, the Sanctuary, the walls and the city, etc. Also, it is their responsibility to resinstate the Levitical ceremonies, the daily sacrifices, the 7 holy feast days, etc. So, the Jews are effectively being given 69 weeks of years or 483 literal years to complete their God given mission within His plan of restoration. All of the Jewish elements must be fulfilled BEFORE the arrival of the coming of their Messiah. And please notice, each of the elements that were either taken away or destroyed by the Babylonians will be fully restored in the exact reverse order they were taken away or destroyed. Consequently, the final week of the prophecy, or the 70th week is the time when the very first piece of furniture was taken away - not by the Babylonians, but by Jeremiah. He took the Ark of the Covenant from the Holy of Holies and hid it so it would not be taken away. Consequently, this would be the very last piece of furniture to be restored - the Ark of the Covenant, in the form of the Messiah would restore the Presence of God in the Sanctuary. This is the only element that could not be restored by the Jews.

So, now we have 9:24 and 25 reveals to us the "restorative" elements that must be fulfilled - and they were. The Jews and the Messiah both completed their God given "restorative" mission after the Babylon captivity.

Now we come to the second section of this prophecy. Verses 9:26-27 represent the "destructive" verses within the 70 weeks of years prophecy. And these two verses will not depart in how they are presented from the "restorative verses. They will also reveal the destruction of the physical elements as well as the destruction of the Messiah at the cross. Both the Messiah is described to be "cut off" in the midst of the week (middle of the last week), and the city and the sanctuary will be destroyed by the "people of the prince who is to come." This of course refers to the destruction in 70AD.

But what is so critical is to recognize within these "destructive" verses, those prophecies that speak to the Messiah as opposed to the mere destruction of the physical elements in 70 AD. After the cross, they have absolutely no more value WITHIN GOD'S PLAN OF RESTORATION AND SALVATION. Their specific mission has been fulfilled. The Temple, the Sanctuary, the High PrIest, the Passover Lamb, etc., has now been fulfilled by the Messiah.

ALL of 27 speaks about the cross and the consequences of the cross. They have nothing to do with the physical elements.....
It is Jesus who will confirm the New Covenant for many - not for one week (this is a very bad translation). It specifically refers to the last week. Jesus will confirm the New Covenant DURING (not for a week) the last week of the prophecy for many.

It is Jesus as the Passover Lamb of God who, once and for all, would do away with the need for any further sacrifices and offerings.
It is Jesus and His sacrifice (abomination) and the rejection of His people who will cause God to turn away from His people (He will become desolate to His people for over 2000 years). I am certain you can see just how His rejection by His people causes Him to become "desolate" to them as opposed to a mere destruction of the Temple - the Temple is simply a building, a structure with no more value to God after the cross.

Look forward to your thoughts!

Once again, only by an unsound hermeneutic and man made interpretation of the Bible. Because God makes no mention of the erection of a pagan altar in the temple, or Antiochus Epiphanes, or 168 BC, or even AD 70. There is not one word where God speaks of such dates or occurrences. This is another private interpretation of man, unsubstantiated by the Biblical record.

Earburner's interpretation is just man's speculation and suppositions. For the TRUTH is, the prophet Daniel never "EVER" prophesied of the erection of a pagan altar in the temple by Antiochus Epiphanes in 168 BC, nor of Romans in AD 70. An unfortunate penchant of man is that he transposes his own personal ideas onto the Bible.

2nd Peter 1:20
  • "Knowing this first, that no prophecy of the scripture is of any private interpretation."
The prophecy of scripture is not subject to our own private or personal interpretations, since it is the divinely inspired word of the living God, and not subject to the will of man. Holy men of God spoke as they were moved by the Holy Ghost, and thus interpretations of their words can only be through God's word. Not through man's supposition, not through reading our own imaginations into scripture, and certainly not through the words of secular historians. A sound hermeneutic and ordered exegesis of scripture is paramount in understanding prophesy. And it starts with comparing scripture with scripture, not with man's words. Letting God interpret His own words, not man. Christ referenced Daniel, not Josephus.

Daniel 9:27
  • "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 8:9-14
  • "And out of one of them came forth a little horn, which waxed exceeding great, toward the south, and toward the east, and toward the pleasant land.
  • And it waxed great, even to the host of heaven; and it cast down some of the host and of the stars to the ground, and stamped upon them.
  • Yea, he magnified himself even to the prince of the host, and by him the daily sacrifice was taken away, and the place of his sanctuary was cast down.
  • And an host was given him against the daily sacrifice by reason of transgression, and it cast down the truth to the ground; and it practiced, and prospered.
  • Then I heard one saint speaking, and another saint said unto that certain saint which spake, How long shall be the vision concerning the daily sacrifice, and the transgression of desolation, to give both the sanctuary and the host to be trodden under foot?
  • And he said unto me, Unto two thousand and three hundred days; then shall the sanctuary be cleansed."

The continual, or daily was NOT taken away by Antiochus or Titus or any other man, but by the spirit Satan. He is the little power that should arise and magnify himself in "THE TEMPLE OF GOD" and cast the truth down. What truth was in the physical Jewish Temple in Jerusalem in AD 70? Lest we forget, it was "by reason of transgression an host was given against the daily sacrifice." That is the prophesy. Christ further illuminated it declaring, abomination would stand in the Holy Place. the Jewish Temple was not the Holy Place of God in AD 70, nor was it brought to desolation by Antiochus Epiphanes in 168 BC. The fact is, neither Titus nor Antiochus Epiphanes is the little horn that God declares shall cast the truth down (Jerusalem didn't have the truth in AD 70), take away the continual (daily), which Jerusalem didn't have to be cast down, throw the place of the Prince down (the Jewish temple was not the place of the Prince in AD 70), and tread down the host for 2300 days, cleaning the Sanctuary.

Sorry, Antiochus doesn't quality anymore that Josephus qualifies to interpret God's word. That is as disjointed a theory that I have read. No, the well traveled AD 70 theory is all just a pipe dream, a tradition, a very bad private interpretation that disregards all the Biblical facts, substituting speculations for sound exegesis.
Unfortunately, you have not understood ALL OF 1 Cor. Ch. 2.
Especially verse 5.

As you have clearly shown, by your own sharp words of dissent towards me, you have proved that "My faith does NOT stand in the wisdom of men, but in the power [authority] of God", aka "the mind of Christ".

[25] Then answered all the people, and said, **His [innocent] blood be on us, and on our children.
Now you know who it was that committed "the abomination that maketh desolate".

Mat 24:15-16
(15) When ye therefore shall see the abomination of desolation, spoken of by Daniel the prophet, stand in the holy place, (whoso readeth, let him understand:)
(16) Then let them which be in Judaea flee into the mountains:

I totally disagree with your attempt to interpret the "abomination of desolation" as the "hands of Israel to shed the blood of the innocent to qualify as "abomination" where you believe that it is the Jews only that saw Christ on the cross as the "abomination of desolation" and then waited 40 years to flee to the wilderness to avoid Roman armies? It does not make sense at all!

And also your belief that John 2:21 talked about Christ's "mortal body." Which you need to read more deeper than that. Because the Holy Spirit being poured out at Pentecost would eventually reveal the "real" deeper Spiritual truth of His words--to His people. e.g., when Christ threw the buyers and sellers out of the Temple (G2411 - hieron)

John 2:18-21

  • "Then answered the Jews and said unto him, What sign shewest thou unto us, seeing that thou doest these things?
  • Jesus answered and said unto them, Destroy this temple, and in three days I will raise it up.
  • Then said the Jews, Forty and six years was this temple in building, and wilt thou rear it up in three days?
  • But he spake of the temple of his body."

That word Temple Christ used there is a different word (G3485 - naos), but it is obvious that the words are interchangeable as the Jews spoke of the physical building, declaring it took 46 years to build. And note Christ never told them that He spoke of the Temple of His body, it remained a mystery to them. But it is written by the Apostle John for us, who would come after and receive the deeper Spiritual truth of His words. True to His words, they did destroy the Temple, and Christ did raise it up in three days, and it was the sign that Jesus had the power/authority to do these things--as they had asked. A sign that many are blinded to from that day to this very day.

You sir, are making the exact same mistake that the Jews made in not understanding the Spiritual nature of the kingdom, the promised land, the Holy place within the Holy Temple, and what High Priest could enter it to make reconciliation for the people. Do you not understand how when Christ died for our sins the Sun was darkened, and the Temple veil (Luke 23:45) was torn from top to bottom? The torn veil symbolizes Spiritually that there is now a new and living way to enter into the Holiest Of Holies. Selah. Christ is talking about His people, his congregation which is His temple! Aren't we the spiritual stones of that rebuilding, just like the Jews of old temple, we are His builder and is part of Christ's body. So your interpretation that it has anything to do with Christ's literal mortal body isn't accurate one.

No, Mathew 27:22-25 does NOT qualify as the "abomination that maketh desolate" because of all sorts of exegetical and hermeneutical gymnastics in a vain attempt to link John 2:18-22 with Prov 6:16-19 placing the abomination of desolation right on the "Jewish hands" at the Cross. Nonsense.

Jesus is the AOD. And because He was rejected and crucified by His people, God would “make desolate” Himself from them for “the time of the Gentiles.” The Jews would be made “desolate” to their God ….

Do you have a Scrpture verse that actually supports your private interpretation that "God would "make desolate" Himself", assume you mean with the sins of the whole world? Yet you said that Jesus is "THEE" abomination of desolation" while suggesting that the JEWS at the time of the Cross would be made "desolate" to their God?? Sorry, you do not make any sense at all! Too many speculations.

Preterism has gone mad.

Well, I think I will rather pass on your request.... If we were sitting at a table with 6 other folks discussing this issue, would you present yourself to the others this way? Is that the way you speak to people in the flesh? Sorry, I don't speak to you that way and I certainly am not going to let you speak to me that way... You are certainly entitled to your own interpretations... I will not be responding to your responses any further....

I take this that you cannot answer my questions honestly. You do not have to respond because I’ll response with scripture to correct any speculations you guys comes up with for all to see.

Much wisdom.

Don't get ahead of yourself.
Without the sacrifice of Christ and the restoration of His mortal body into New Life, God the Father could not ever permanently dwell within any one of us, being that of both the Old Covenant and the New, except that He permanently dwell within the restored immortal body of Christ FIRST.

Jesus Himself is indeed "the FIRST resurrection". Therefore, ever since Pentecost, we all who are of faith in Him, and are "born again" by God's Holy Spirit, are made to be partakers of his divine nature. Unfortunately, whosoever does not have the literal Spirit [mind] of Christ within them, they are none of His. Rom. 8:8:8-9.

2300 days before the day of Jesus's return, the daily sacrifice of two lambs will begin again.

The daily sacrifice will then be stopped and the transgression of desolation act committed (Daniel 8:13). The Antichrist sitting in the
temple, claiming to have achieved God-hood.

Then 1335 days before the day of Jesus's return, the abomination of desolation statue image will be set up on the temple mount. Daniel 12:11-12.

And for the period of 1335 days, the temple will be made desolate of the worship and praise of the One True God. Made desolate by the presence of the beast, the false prophet, and the abomination of desolation statue image (indwelt by Satan).

On the day that Jesus returns, He will cleanse the temple mount of the beast and the false prophet - casting them into lake of fire.

And Jesus will also turn the abomination of desolation statue image to ashes (Ezekiel 28:16-19) exposing Satan, who will then be chained and cast into the bottomless pit for one thousand years. To eventually also be cast into the lake of fire.

First of all, congratulations on making a timeline chart. I encourage everyone to do that. Charts are a good way to organize and adjust one's thoughts.

Of the 70 weeks, the messiah is cutoff after 7 weeks plus 62 weeks. i.e one week to go, the 70th week

The time, times, half time is in three places in the bible
1. Daniel 7:25 the little horn changes the times and laws
2. Daniel 12:7 Daniel's people under duress
3. Revelation 12:14 Satan's persecution of the woman Israel and her seed, the Jews

All of those constitute the second half of the seven years. So you have one of the time, times, half time in the wrong place.

You referenced Revelation 11 for the time, times, half time. That expression is not found in Revelation 11.
------------------------------------------

You have Messiah the prince - a reference to Jesus - confirming the covenant for one week (i.e. 7 years). Wrong, it is the prince that shall come that shall confirm the covenant for one week

-------------------------------------------

You show the 1290 days and the 1335 days of Daniel 12:11-12 taking place in the 7 yeas following Jesus's crucifixion. Wrong. The 1290 days and the 1335 days are time of the end - not first century.

--------------------------------------------

On the right side of your chart - you show "the promised inheritance". What are you referring to ?

--------------------------------------------

I think you need to work on your end times understanding of the timeframes in the bible. Here is my table listing all of the timeframes for the end times. Continue to work on charts. But the one you posted is not correct.
