NB: This is a direct continuation from the fulfilled weeks of Daniel 70 weeks. So read that article first before this.
69 weeks of Daniel 70 weeks were accomplished and fulfilled with the cutting off of Messiah (Jesus). But the history of Israel and Jerusalem is determined to be 70 weeks for God to accomplish His plan as seeing in Dan 9:24 (God’s plan within the 70 weeks). Therefore, there is one week (7 years) left.
Dan 9:26: And after threescore and two weeks shall Messiah be cut off, but not for himself. After cutting off of Messiah, 69 weeks are accomplished and fulfilled. Then angel Gabriel gives out the prophecy of the last one week of the seventy weeks.
The seventieth week of Daniel 70 weeks
…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. 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 (Dan 9:26-27).
The last one week of the seventy weeks (the seventieth week) starts with the coming of the prince of the people. Realize that the people had denied Messiah the prince and cut Him off. Therefore, what then comes is their prince; prince of the people (the people of the prince). The prince of the people is the prince spoken of in Daniel chapter 7 and Revelation 13; a false Christ or an Anti-Christ.
The Anti-Christ
From the time the Anti-Christ comes to the world, to the end of his rule is determined to be only one week (7 years). Therefore, the rule of the Anti-Christ will only last for seven years and the author of the Book of revelation; John, has given out clear timings of all events which will take place during the Anti-Christ rule until the end of his rule, sticking within the 7 years revealing how correct Daniel seventy weeks prophecy is. As I teach the Book of Revelation, I will show you all events and their timings within the seven years rule of the Anti-Christ as put across by Apostle John.
Within the Seven years rule, the Anti-Christ according to the prophecy will;
- Confirm a covenant with many for one week (7 years) 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.
Realize that these are the same things revealed in details by many prophets in the bible and Apostle John in the Book of Revelation, even giving their timings within the seven years Anti-Christ rules.
A charismatic intelligent world leader will be the Anti-Christ. He will not come out and say ‘I am the Anti-Christ’ but he will be raised by the people and the people of the world will say ‘he is the man we want to lead us’. But there is a time he will declare, ‘I am Christ’.
Anti-Christ rule
He will make Israel and many nations sign a covenant (treaty) and he will bring peace in Middle East. Part of the treaty will be to rebuild the temple on the temple mount and re-state the old Jewish worship system. Then, in the midst of the week (which is 3 ½ years; same time given by John in the Apocalypse) he will violate the covenant (treaty) setting up an abomination that causes the temple to become desolate, putting an end to their worship.
He will do this by making the sacrifices and oblations to cease, setting up an image of Himself in the temple and telling every man to worship it, what Jesus in Matthew 24 refers to abomination of desolation. He will say that he is God, ‘I am Christ’, and his image of worship will seem to have life.
Then the Jews will now open their eyes and see what they have done; they will be horrified. Then the anti-Christ will realize that the Jews are against Him and he will wage war against them. Then God will carry all the Jews and hides them in a place He has prepared in a desert to protect them from the Anti-Christ wrath. He will protect them for 3 and half years (42 months).
After Anti-Christ makes himself truly known within the first 3 ½ years, in the following 3½ years there will be war and devastation which has never being seeing in the world before. This is the time of great tribulation; all hell will break loose in this world. The seventieth week of Daniel 70 weeks is the great tribulation; Jacob’s trouble. God will be poring His wrath on a disobedient world as the Anti-Christ and his forces tries to counter-back to destroy all Jews and Christians. Then at the end of the seventieth week of the seventy weeks, Jesus Christ will come back straight to the war at Armageddon and overthrow the Anti-Christ and his entire rule. Jesus will then establish His kingdom, rule and reign from the earth.
Having given His life to finish transgression, put an end to sin, atone for wickedness and bring in everlasting righteousness, and having fulfilled all Biblical vision and prophecy, He will anoint the most Holy Place and receive all the honor, glory and blessing the Scriptures promise Him. Israel will finally have her Kingdom back and will live in peace with God in her midst forever as God planned within the seventy weeks (Dan 9:24).
The seventieth week is yet to happen
The last week of the seventy weeks of Daniel is yet to happen. It is an End Time prophecy (prophecy of the future).
Here are some clues that stress this out;
- The Anti-Christ is yet to come
- There is no peace in the Middle East
- Since the destruction of the Jewish temple in 70AD by the Romans, there is no temple up to today.
- You can find more clues
Israel is God’s time piece. God time stopped shortly after Jesus was crucified….(Continued in the next article).
