As we cross the threshold into Daniel 11:36, our vantage point changes from fulfilled prophecy to future prophecy, and prophecy currently being fulfilled right before our very eyes.
Antiochus
in our history fulfilled prophecy and foreshadowed future prophecy about
the antichrist.
Antifa
is currently a prophetic object lesson since President Trump just declared them
a terrorist organization. Antifa is described as leaderless and lawless,
which is a shadow of the lawless one; the antichrist.
2
Thessalonians 2:9-12
The coming of the lawless one (antichrist) is according
to the working of satan, with all power, signs, and lying wonders, 10 and
with all unrighteous deception among those who perish, because
they did not receive the love of the truth, that they might be saved. 11 And for
this reason God will send them strong delusion, that they should believe
the lie, 12 that they all may be condemned who did
not believe the truth but had pleasure in unrighteousness.
Does that sound like today?
No matter what a person believes, fulfilled prophecy
is powerfully persuasive.
So, Daniel 11 ought to convince everyone of the Divinely
inspired inerrancy of the Bible. Reportedly135 documented prophecies have been
fulfilled in the first 35 verses.
Among other things, Daniel details 483 years of prophecies
fulfilled, to the letter, to the day, 173,880 days to be exact.
Daniel
9:24-25
Seventy weeks
(490 years) are determined for your people and
for your holy city... (God will wrap everything
up for Israel in 70 weeks).
25 Know therefore and understand, that from the going
forth of the command to restore and build Jerusalem until Messiah the
Prince, there shall be seven weeks and sixty-two
weeks (sevens); the street shall be built again, and the wall, even
in troublesome times.
Artaxerxes issued the decree March 14, 445 BC
For 69 weeks (483 years) HIStory revealed that the
angel’s prophecy to Daniel fell into place like clockwork, but then everything
came to a screeching halt.
Jesus rode into Jerusalem on a donkey, in peace, as
their Messiah, their Deliverer, their Savior, on the 173,880th day
just as prophesied about 500 years prior.
It was the very day (Palm Sunday) the Passover
lambs were examined by the priests and either accepted or rejected.
The priests should’ve recognized Jesus and shouted,
“Worthy is the Lamb of God that takes away the sins of the world!”
Instead, they rebuked Him, rejected Him.
So, in a way, for a while, He rejected them.
But not without a broken heart.
He sobbed as He entered Jerusalem.
He overturned the tables of the money changers, who
turned His Father’s House into a den of thieves.
He cursed the fruitless fig tree (which represented
Israel).
His first thing after His last breath, ripped the veil
in the temple from top to bottom.
In tender mercy and Divine discipline, He paused the seventy-week
clock for Israel and opened the door for the gentile, in part, to provoke the
Jew to jealousy. (Rom. 11:11).
They rejected their True Messiah, and
Jesus stopped the clock.
Today, the angel’s prophecy has been on pause, for
almost 2,000 years. In about seven years, it’ll be 2,000 years.
And there just so happens to be seven years remaining on
the seventy-week clock.
That’s where we sit today, at the threshold of the
restarting of the seventy-week clock. Which triggers the end of the Church age,
and the beginning of Israel’s seventieth week.
Specifically, the seventieth week will begin at the
signing of a seven-year covenant (peace agreement) with the
antichrist as per Daniel 9:27.
Israel will accept a false Messiah, and
Jesus will start the clock.
Daniel
9:27
Then he shall
confirm a covenant with many for one week (seven
years); But in the middle of the week he shall bring an end
to sacrifice and offering.
And on the wing of abominations shall be one who makes desolate, even until the
consummation, which is determined, is poured out on the desolate.
Around that time is where we drop into Daniel 11:36
and step from history to prophecy. From Antiochus in history to
antichrist in prophecy.
36 “Then the king (antichrist) shall do according to his own will: he shall exalt
and magnify himself above every god, shall speak
blasphemies against the God of gods, and shall prosper till the
wrath has been accomplished; for what has been determined shall
be done.
Notice the narcissistic words, his own will,
exalt, magnify himself above.
This depicts the antichrist reflecting and echoing
lucifer from Isaiah 14:13-15.
For
you have said in your heart: ‘I will ascend
into heaven, I will exalt my throne above
the stars of God; I will also sit on the mount of the
congregation on the farthest sides of the north; 14 I will ascend
above the heights of the clouds, I will be like the Most High.’
I will, I will, I will,
five times he repeats the self-absorbed words.
The antichrist is a narcissist.
Please do not follow his footsteps, they lead to
depression, oppression and stay the course too long, possession.
A person self-absorbed, self-centered, is a miserable
person, no matter their life situation.
On the other hand, a selfless person, one concerned
with others, is a person of joy, no matter their life situation.
lucifer boasted big plans, but God always gets
the last Word... Verse 15:
15 Yet
you shall
be brought down to Sheol, to the lowest depths of the Pit.
“God resists the proud,
But gives grace to the humble.” James 4:6.
Okay, let’s look at Daniel 11:36 one more time:
36 “Then the king (antichrist) shall do according to his
own will: he shall exalt and magnify
himself above every god, shall speak
blasphemies against the God of gods, and shall prosper till the wrath has been
accomplished; for what has been determined shall be done.
Did you notice in our text the word “shall”
was repeated five times? (We’ll see it repeated a whopping twenty-six
times from verses 36-45).
The prophecy hasn’t happened yet, but God is emphasizing
that “what has been determined shall be done.”
37 He (antichrist)
shall regard neither the God of his fathers
nor the desire of women, nor regard any god; for he shall exalt himself
above them all.
No respect for God (Elohim)of his fathers
which may be the True God of heaven, or the false gods of his ancestors.
Nor for the desire of women,
which might mean he won’t be persuaded by women, some say he may be gay. But in
context we’re talking about his attitude toward Deity, so
probably speaking of Jesus the Messiah, because in that day the desire of all
Jewish women was to be the one to birth the Messiah.
Regarding wanting women or worshipping any God, he exalted
himself above them all.
38 But in
their place he shall honor a god of fortresses; and a god which his
fathers did not know he shall honor with gold and silver, with
precious stones and pleasant things. 39 Thus
he shall act against the strongest fortresses with a foreign
god, which he shall acknowledge, and advance its glory;
and he shall cause them to rule over many, and divide
the land for gain.
The antichrist craves control his god is power and
money.
Daniel lays the foundation and Revelation
fleshes it out.
Revelation
13:5-7, 15-18.
And
he was given a mouth speaking great things and blasphemies, and he was given
authority to continue for forty-two months. 6 Then he opened his
mouth in blasphemy against God, to blaspheme His name, His tabernacle, and
those who dwell in heaven. 7 It was granted to him to make war with
the saints and to overcome them. And authority was given him over every tribe,
tongue, and nation.
15
He was granted power to give breath to the image of the beast, that the image
of the beast should both speak and cause as many as would not worship the image
of the beast to be killed. 16 He causes all, both small and great,
rich and poor, free and slave, to receive a mark on their right hand or on
their foreheads, 17 and that no one may buy or sell except one who
has the mark or the name of the beast, or the number of his name.
18 Here is wisdom. Let him who has understanding calculate the
number of the beast, for it is the number of a man: His number is 666.
40 “At
the time of the end the king of the South shall attack him; and
the king of the North shall
come against him like a whirlwind, with chariots, horsemen,
and with many ships; and he shall enter the countries, overwhelm them, and
pass through.
Not all nations will be thrilled at first about this
new world leader.
We see the antichrist in Revelation 6:2, “And I
looked, and behold, a white horse. He who sat on it had a bow; and
a crown was given to him, and he went out conquering and to
conquer.”
On a white horse as if in peace, a crown given
to him, (not earned in battle, but allowed by God for this hour).
Perhaps by demonic deception he overwhelms them
and conquers them without a fight.
41 He shall
also enter the Glorious Land, (Israel) and many countries shall be overthrown; but
these shall escape from his hand: Edom, Moab, and
the prominent people of Ammon.
Why do Edom, Moab and Ammon, escape?
Jesus warns of this in Matthew 24:15-23.
The only safe place around Israel that escapes the
clutches of the antichrist is Edom, Moab and Ammon, to the east of Israel. In the land of
Edom is the rock city of Petra. The entrance is about a mile long and just wide
enough for a camel, no trucks or tanks.
We believe this is the place prepared, and where they will flee.
42 He shall stretch out his hand
against the countries, and the land of Egypt shall not escape. 43 He
shall have power over the treasures of gold and silver,
and over all the precious things of Egypt; also the Libyans and
Ethiopians shall follow at his heels.
Rev. 13:17 speaks of his power over financial
markets, controlling all buying and selling by the mark of the beast.
Bible prophecy currently being fulfilled.
April 17, 2020, Bill Gates patented, Cryptocurrency
System Using Body Activity Data. Basically, a computer chip/credit card that can
do things like monitor location, tasks, body fluid and temperature. Can add or
subtract cryptocurrency (control ability to buy or sell) according to whether a
person fulfills assigned tasks. Ironically, (or prophetically) the patent
number was 2020060606.
The following month, May 1, 2020, House 6666 was
introduced. The TRACE ACT (Testing, Reaching, And Contacting Everyone)
was a bill assigning millions of dollars a year to equip task forces “to
conduct diagnostic testing for COVID–19, and related activities such as contact
tracing, through mobile health units and, as necessary, at
individuals’ residences, and for other purposes.” (more info: https://www.congress.gov/bill/116th-congress/house-bill/6666/text)
In other words, to verify all, both small and
great, rich and poor, free and slave, received the vax, (or, mark of the
beast?).
44 But news from the east and the north
shall trouble him; therefore he shall go out with great fury to destroy and
annihilate many.
Revelation 9:16, Now the number of the
army of the horsemen was two hundred million...
Revelation
16:12, Then the sixth angel poured out his bowl on the great river Euphrates, and its water
was dried up, so that the way of the kings from the east might be
prepared.
China is east.
China reportedly has the capability of assembling a
200 million man army.
The Euphrates is drying up.
The Word of God is flowing into place exactly as written.
45 And he shall
plant the tents of his palace between the seas
and the glorious holy mountain; yet
he shall come to his end, and no one will help him.
Between The Glorious Holy Mount Zion and the Seas (Mediterranean
Sea, Dead Sea, Sea of Galilee), lies the
Jezreel Valley, or Megiddo, better known as the location of the Battle
of Armageddon.
Napoleon reportedly described the plain of Megiddo as the world's greatest natural battlefield, noting that "All the armies of the world could maneuver their forces on this vast plain"
In Revelation 16, after the sixth bowl is poured out,
drying up the Euphrates, it says, 13 And I saw three unclean
spirits like frogs coming out of the mouth of the dragon, out of the mouth of
the beast, and out of the mouth of the false prophet. 14 For they
are spirits of demons, performing signs, which go out to the kings of the earth
and of the whole world, to gather them to the battle of that great day of God Almighty.
15 “Behold, I am coming as a thief. Blessed is he who watches, and
keeps his garments, lest he walk naked and they see his shame.”
16
And they gathered them together to the place called in Hebrew, Armageddon.
Revelation 19:11-21 describes the battle.
You don’t want to be on earth for any of this.
You shouldn’t be.
You don’t have to be.
To make sure you’re not, you must make Jesus LORD of
your life.
John
14:1-3, “Let not your heart be troubled; you believe in God, believe also
in Me. 2 In My Father’s house are many mansions;
if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to
prepare a place for you. 3 And if I go and prepare a
place for you, I will come again and receive you to Myself; that where
I am, there you may be also.
1 Thessalonians 4:16-18, 1 Corinthians 15:51-52
Three observations:
1. Lawlessness Revealed.
2. Voice Box Shot.
3. Gospel Preached.
The lawless reaction of the left after the Floyd fiasco
compared to the love of the right after Charlie’s assassination is night and day.
The lawlessness of the antichrist has been exposed.
The Love of Christ is shining through His saints.
The world is without excuse.
2
Thessalonians 2:7-8
For the mystery of lawlessness is already at work; only He
who now restrains (the Holy Spirit in the Ekklesia, the Church) will
do so until He is taken out of the way. 8 And then the lawless one
(antichrist) will be revealed, whom the Lord will consume with
the breath of His mouth and destroy with the brightness of His coming
Voice Box Shot.
The devil is aiming at silencing the Church.
Gospel Preached.
The shot backfired with an echo of Charlie's voice
preaching the gospel around the world by multiplied millions googling his name.
The Holy Spirit's Presence filled stadiums during Charlie's Celebration of Life, and even more multiplied millions heard one leader after another from
America, preach the gospel of Jesus Christ in honor of Charlie Kirk, the
martyr. But Erika Kirk opened the heavens revealing the heart of Jesus when she said through tears, "that man, that young man, I forgive him."
Matthew
24:14
And this gospel of
the kingdom will be preached in all the world as a witness to
all the nations, and then the end will come.
Are you ready to meet Jesus?
If not, you better get ready. Charlie is probably up
there right now doing what he loves to do—debate.
Can you hear him?
God, You said in Your Word, “Come let us reason together.”
So, let’s reason. We’re about seven years from the two-thousand-year anniversary of Jesus’ ascension.
That will put us at about 6,000 years from creation.
According to the precedent You set at creation by working six days and resting the seventh, we are at a Turning Point.
We still have Daniel’s seventieth week and the thousand-year millennial rest.
Therefore, let’s call the Church Home, start the clock for Israel to finish Daniel’s seventieth week, just in time for Your Ascension 2,000 year Anniversary, and kick off the 1,000-year Sabbath rest.
It'll be awesome! Instead of my American Come Back Tour, which was interrupted by a bullet, let's have a World Come Back Tour.
Whaddya think about that, God? Can I organize it for you?
Charlie’s never lost a debate.
Are you ready to go Home?
Let’s pray.
Lord Jesus, thank You for waking US to serve and love
You, forever.
Amen.
