    The False One Who Makes the 7 Year Covenant of Daniel 9

    Here is the 'great tribulation' in Revelation: From the 1st Trumpet through the last bowl of wrath. That is not 1260 days. It is not simple and this isn't correct. Where is the abomination in Matt 24? It is before Matt 24:29-31 and the sign of the son of man. Where is sign of the son of man...

    The False One Who Makes the 7 Year Covenant of Daniel 9

    Why are you lecturing me as if I don't know what the locusts are? I am the one that keeps saying that they are the people of the prince to come. Does this sound like I think that they are literal locusts? Please answer this. Rev 9:18-19 is the 2nd woe, not the 1st woe. That is not 'spiritual...

    The False One Who Makes the 7 Year Covenant of Daniel 9

    I do easily know it. A third of mankind is killed, then the killing stops and the covenant is made. Then broken 1260 days later. End 2nd woe.

    The False One Who Makes the 7 Year Covenant of Daniel 9

    You saying the same thing over and over again doesn't make it correct. Dan 9:26 is at the time of the 1st Woe. You are a preterist. We agree to disagree.

    The False One Who Makes the 7 Year Covenant of Daniel 9

    The Trumpets start the great tribulation. The 1st Woe starts here too. The 2nd woe starts 5 months later. There is the killing of a third of mankind, then the Dan 9:27 covenant and then the breaking of it at the 7th Trumpet.

    The False One Who Makes the 7 Year Covenant of Daniel 9

    'messiah' just means 'anointed one' - it is the person who is received as the messiah. That's the whole point of what the 'antichrist' is. John 5:43 I have come in my Father’s name, and you do not receive me. If another comes in his own name, you will receive him. The problem is that Dan 9...

    The False One Who Makes the 7 Year Covenant of Daniel 9

    I wasn't saying that the seals, Trumpets, and vials were in the past - the seals are open or starting soon. This is my point - the preterists have twisted things around so much, you can't see my point that Dan 9:26 is futurist.

    The False One Who Makes the 7 Year Covenant of Daniel 9

    Yes, they are the same. The 'man of sin' is that 'anointed one'. Not going to discuss it further.

    The False One Who Makes the 7 Year Covenant of Daniel 9

    In general, I totally agree with this post. The 'he' in Dan 9:27 is referring back to Dan 9:26 - great point! The thing is is that the preterists (who definitely have an agenda on this forum and others) have confounded things so much, many posters go out of their way to cater to their view...

    Timing of the abomination of desolation

    Dan 11 is just about the hardest thing to interpret out there, so we have to be really precise (and open minded?). Dan 11:40 and on is talking about Mystery Babylon (= King of Tyre). The 3rd King of the North is the Assyrian. The 'Lucifer', king of Babylon (Tyre) in Isaiah 14 is this person...

    Has This Ever Happened in Your lifetime?

    Yes, Joel 2 is the 6th Seal. The locusts of Joel are the same locusts of the 5th Trumpet, the unstoppable army, the 'people of the prince to come'. (Trumpets 1-4 are judgments). These locusts are, again, from Deut 28 33 A people you do not know will eat the produce of your land and of all...

    Has This Ever Happened in Your lifetime?

    Joel 2 1Blow the ram’s horn in Zion; sound the alarm on My holy mountain! Let all who dwell in the land tremble,for the Day of the LORD is coming; indeed, it is near— 2a day of darkness and gloom,a day of clouds and blackness. Like the dawn overspreading the mountains a great and strong army...

    Has This Ever Happened in Your lifetime?

    It doesn't matter if the locusts are or are not the same as Gog. All that matters is that Jews will think that it is. When they try to get right with God after the battle with what they perceive as Gog, they are not getting right with God at all. After the messiah saves them from 'Gog', then...

    Has This Ever Happened in Your lifetime?

    I considered that the locusts might be figurative, but I couldn't resolve the many reference to literal effects of locusts such as the loss of crops and food to eat. Even in the passage you quoted, the Lord promises them that they will have plenty to eat "until you are satisfied." The loss of...

    Has This Ever Happened in Your lifetime?

    I liked certain bits, but I had a lot of problems with this video. The locusts are the northern army, not literal grasshoppers... Joel 2 25I will repay you for the years eaten by locusts— the swarming locust, the young locust, the destroying locust, and the devouring locust - My great army...

    Do Not Know The Hour

    All the woes are sequential: 5th Trumpet then 6th Trumpet then 7th Trumpet. Between Revelation 9:12's 'the 1st woe has passed' and Revelation 11:14's 'the 2nd woe has passed', there is no parenthetical chapters. The 7 thunders are indicating that the 'flood' has come (meaning the 5 months of...

    "As A Thief"

    Good observation about the thief reference in the 6th Bowl. But I would disagree about the 'day' mentioned at the 6th Seal. All Seals, Trumpets, and bowls are sequential. The 6th Seal 'Day of the Lord's wrath' is the false Day of the Lord. Here is Luke 17 26 “Just as it was in the days of...

    Rev.9 Locusts Revealed in Book of Joel

    Also, forgot to point out that Joel 1:9 8Wail like a virgin dressed in sackcloth,grieving for the husband of her youth. 9 Grain and drink offerings have been cut off from the house of the LORD;the priests are in mourning, those who minister before the LORD. 10 The field is ruined; the land...

    Rev.9 Locusts Revealed in Book of Joel

    The 'locusts' are the 'people of the prince to come' (Dan 9:26) 'plundering' 'Israel' (just like Gog in Ezek 38:10-13). This 'devouring'/ 'plundering' by the 'northern army' (Joel 2:20) is enslaving Israel, spiritually. Joel 3 2 I will gather all the nations and bring them down to the Valley...

    Daniel 9:24-27, Seventy Literal Weeks Explained?

    I agree with a literal (-ish) 70 weeks prophecy. This is just my speculation: If we use the Abraham Accord as the start of the 'call to rebuild Jerusalem' (it seems to mainly be an economic development package), that would mean Tuesday Sept. 15, 2020 started this 70 weeks. Looking at the...
