The Archangel Michael*** told Daniel that the prophecies would be sealed until the time of the end. Discover how the prophecies in the book of Daniel are being unsealed in the events taking place today.
Since Daniel was told that the wise will understand the message and lead many to righteousness, while the wicked will not grasp its meaning and will continue in their wickedness, it is imperative for everyone living in these end times to diligently examine and attempt to comprehend the vital message Daniel has recorded for us.
Daniel's visions were given for those living at the time of the end. The wise will diligently search the word of the Lord and ask for wisdom in order to understand God's plan as outlined in Daniel's five visions.
When Jesus came the first time, the wise men of the day were aware of His soon arrival and they were actively looking for Him. Daniel's visions were given in order for people to know what to expect during these lasts days. Jesus is coming again very soon. Now, more than ever, we must prepare. We need to ask ourselves if we are really ready. Just as important, are we helping others prepare? Today, those who are wise will be passionately sharing this message and helping others prepare. Those doing so will "shine like the stars forever and ever."
May the Lord grant us a heart of wisdom to understand the time we are living in so we can prepare for what lies ahead! ***Bible commentators do not agree who spoke to Daniel in his closing vision. Possibilities include the angel Gabriel (Matthew Henry), the Archangel Michael (Hengstenberg), and a preincarnate appearance of Christ, a Christophany (Young). Who spoke to Daniel is not as important as the message that he was given.
From the Author:
HERESY or GENUINE TRUTH - READ THIS BOOK AND DISCOVER FOR YOURSELF
Some contend that my teaching on the 70 weeks of Daniel is heresy. Let's see were the real heresy lies.
A heretic is someone who teaches an opinion that is profoundly at odds with what is generally accepted. From the time of the early church, Daniel's 70 Week Prophecy has applied to Jesus Christ being the one to fulfill the prophecy.This was known as the Messianic view and was considered the accepted doctrine from the time of Jerome down through the centuries. The following are some of the prominent expositors of God's Word who taught that the Seventy Weeks of Daniel applied to our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ and not the Antichrist:
Albert Barnes, B.H. Carroll, Ian M. Duguid, A.R. Fausset, Sinclair B. Ferguson, Curtis Hahn, Matthew Henry, E.W. Hengstenberg, Clarence H. Hewitt, Saint Jerome, Philip Mauro, Sir Isaac Newton,J.E.H. Thomson, John Urquhart, Ralph Woodrow and Edward J. Young.
Then in the late 1800's a new contemporary interpretation surfaced, which has captivated the masses with anew "tradition" that has become the modern church dogma of today.
My original view of eschatology was firmly indoctrinated into believing this new tradition. Being a CPA, I was fascinated by the precision Sir Robert Anderson created in his book The Coming Prince, which is considered the standard volume in the field and followed by most in today's church.
In Appendix 1, I illustrate how Anderson's interpretation inserted the Antichrist in Daniel 9:27, instead of Jesus Christ as explained in the book. This changed the entire meaning of Daniel's magnificent vision and distorts the true significance of this important prophecy. In Appendix 4, I give a detailed explanation of how Sir Robert Anderson made three critical errors.
So instead of being about the wonderful story of how God sent His Son to provide Israel an extended period of grace over a period of 490 years, the prophecy has become a fabricated tale about the Antichrist coming to make a "7 year" peace treaty! This story has become the modern staple for the church today; blinding everyone from seeing the beautiful story Daniel was given.
Those who will approach this subject with an open mind and a teachable heart will discover that the traditional teaching in the Church today is really at odds with what was taught from the time of the early church. The real heresy came about in the late 1800's and has replaced the genuine truth that was taught from the time of the early Church.
"Given sufficient time, cherished traditions become dogmatic beliefs."Amaury De Reincourt
"The only defense against false teaching is truth...(and) false doctrineis like a disease germ; it sets up a mental block to truth. A person once infected is very difficult to reach. It seems as if one simply cannot get through to him." Arthur Bloomfield
