>>IF YOU GO 483 YEARS FROM 457
B.C., IT COMES TO THE BAPTISM OF
00:00:14.34\00:00:21.88
JESUS IN 27 A.D. WOW,
CHRIST CAME RIGHT ON TIME
00:00:21.92\00:00:26.02
THE FIRST TIME, JUST
LIKE HE SAID HE WOULD.
00:00:26.05\00:00:28.26
WHY DON'T MORE
PEOPLE BELIEVE THE BIBLE?
00:00:28.29\00:00:30.03
TONIGHT'S PRESENTATION IS GOING
TO BE ONE THAT I'M ACTUALLY
00:00:34.13\00:00:37.83
COMBINING A COUPLE OF STUDIES
INTO ONE PRESENTATION DEALING
00:00:37.87\00:00:41.54
WITH THE SUBJECT OF THE LONGEST
TIME PROPHECY AND THE SANCTUARY.
00:00:41.57\00:00:47.64
THE LESSON TODAY IS LESSON
#11, DEALING WITH THE SUBJECT OF
00:00:47.68\00:00:50.55
CLEANSING THE SANCTUARY.
NOW, WE'RE GOING TO GO INTO
00:00:50.58\00:00:54.48
QUESTION #1 AND I'VE GOT A LOT
TO COVER, SO YOU PRAY FOR ME -
00:00:54.52\00:00:58.85
I'LL PRAY FOR YOU
BECAUSE I'M GOING TO TALK FAST.
00:00:58.89\00:01:00.96
I'LL PRAY YOU CAN LISTEN FAST.
THIS IS A VERY IMPORTANT STUDY.
00:01:00.99\00:01:04.16
ALRIGHT, QUESTION #1 - WE'RE
GOING TO - THIS IS BASED ON A
00:01:04.19\00:01:06.43
PROPHECY IN DANIEL CHAPTER 8 AND
IT TELLS US - MATTER OF FACT,
00:01:06.46\00:01:10.73
OPEN YOUR BIBLES.
WE REALLY NEED TO LOOK.
00:01:10.77\00:01:12.43
IF YOU'VE GOT YOUR BIBLES
WITH YOU OPEN YOUR BIBLES TO
00:01:12.47\00:01:14.04
DANIEL 8. YOU NEED
TO AT LEAST INTRODUCE
00:01:14.07\00:01:15.97
THIS BEFORE WE
DIVE INTO THE QUESTION.
00:01:16.00\00:01:18.71
DANIEL 8, VERSE 1, "IN THE
THIRD YEAR OF THE REIGN OF KING
00:01:18.74\00:01:22.91
BELSHAZZAR A VISION APPEARED TO
ME - TO ME, DANIEL - AFTER THE
00:01:22.94\00:01:27.72
ONE THAT APPEARED
TO ME THE FIRST TIME.
00:01:27.75\00:01:29.45
I SAW IN THE VISION, AND IT
SO HAPPENED WHILE I WAS LOOKING,
00:01:29.48\00:01:32.62
THAT I WAS IN SHUSHAN,
THE CITADEL, WHICH IS IN THE
00:01:32.65\00:01:35.56
PROVINCE OF ELAM; AND I SAW
IN THE VISION THAT I WAS BY THE
00:01:35.59\00:01:39.26
RIVER ULAI. THEN I
LIFTED MY EYES AND SAW,
00:01:39.29\00:01:41.70
AND THERE, STANDING BESIDE THE
RIVER, WAS A RAM WHICH HAD TWO
00:01:41.73\00:01:45.40
HORNS," - NOW HE STARTS TO
HAVE THIS VISION, HE'S ABOVE THE
00:01:45.43\00:01:49.77
RIVER AND HE SEES THIS RAM AND
HE'S WONDERING 'WHAT DOES THIS
00:01:49.80\00:01:52.74
MEAN?' AND THEN
LATER THERE'S A GOAT.
00:01:52.77\00:01:54.54
IF YOU READ THE PREVIOUS
CHAPTER, HE SAYS, 'I WAS IN
00:01:54.58\00:01:57.78
VISION AND I SAW A LION,
THEN I SAW A BEAR, THEN I SAW A
00:01:57.81\00:02:01.02
LEOPARD.' AND WHILE HE'S
WONDERING WHAT THESE THINGS
00:02:01.05\00:02:03.28
MEAN, THE ANGEL COMES AND
EXPLAINS THAT THESE ANIMALS
00:02:03.32\00:02:08.16
REPRESENT DIFFERENT KINGDOMS
AND EMPIRES THAT WILL HAVE SOME
00:02:08.19\00:02:13.33
DOMINATING INFLUENCE OVER
GOD'S PEOPLE DURING THEIR REIGN.
00:02:13.36\00:02:18.40
HE FORETELLS THE HISTORY.
YOU KNOW, IN DANIEL 2, YOU
00:02:18.43\00:02:21.80
REMEMBER WE STUDIED
THAT? HE GAVE A PANORAMA OF THE
00:02:21.84\00:02:24.24
WORLD'S HISTORY AND THEIR
KINGDOMS THROUGH THAT GIANT
00:02:24.27\00:02:27.38
METAL IMAGE. GOD
OFTEN REPEATS THESE THINGS
00:02:27.41\00:02:30.38
AND USES DIFFERENT PARABLES
AND DREAMS TO GIVE PERSPECTIVE.
00:02:30.41\00:02:35.85
SO NOW IN DANIEL
8, LET'S GO INTO THIS.
00:02:35.88\00:02:38.49
FIRST HE SEES A RAM BY THE RIVER
- TWO HORNS - AND ONE OF THEM
00:02:38.52\00:02:43.59
WAS HIGHER THAN THE OTHER "AND
THE HIGHER ONE CAME UP LAST.
00:02:43.63\00:02:47.03
I SAW THE RAM PUSHING WESTWARD,
NORTHWARD, AND SOUTHWARD, SO
00:02:47.03\00:02:50.77
THAT NO ANIMAL COULD WITHSTAND
HIM; NOR WAS THERE ANY THAT
00:02:50.80\00:02:53.17
COULD DELIVER FROM HIS HAND, BUT
HE DID ACCORDING TO HIS WILL AND
00:02:53.20\00:02:56.30
BECAME GREAT. AND
AS I WAS CONSIDERING,
00:02:56.34\00:02:58.91
SUDDENLY A MALE GOAT CAME FROM
THE WEST, ACROSS THE SURFACE OF
00:02:58.94\00:03:03.95
THE WHOLE EARTH, WITHOUT
TOUCHING THE GROUND; AND THE
00:03:03.98\00:03:06.72
GOAT HAD A NOTABLE HORN BETWEEN
HIS EYES." - ONE NOTABLE HORN -
00:03:06.75\00:03:10.39
"THEN HE CAME TO THE RAM THAT
HAD TWO HORNS, WHICH I HAD SEEN
00:03:10.42\00:03:14.39
STANDING BESIDE THE RIVER, AND
RAN AT HIM WITH FURIOUS POWER.
00:03:14.42\00:03:17.49
AND I SAW HIM CONFRONTING
THE RAM; HE WAS MOVED WITH RAGE
00:03:17.53\00:03:20.56
AGAINST HIM, ATTACKED THE
RAM, AND BROKE HIS TWO HORNS.
00:03:20.60\00:03:24.43
THERE WAS NO POWER IN THE RAM TO
WITHSTAND HIM, BUT HE CAST HIM
00:03:24.47\00:03:27.77
DOWN TO THE GROUND AND TRAMPLED
HIM; AND THERE WAS NO ONE THAT
00:03:27.80\00:03:31.14
COULD DELIVER THE
RAM FROM HIS HAND.
00:03:31.17\00:03:32.94
THEREFORE THE MALE GOAT GREW
VERY GREAT; BUT WHEN HE BECAME
00:03:32.97\00:03:37.25
STRONG, THE LARGE HORN WAS
BROKEN, AND IN PLACE OF IT FOUR
00:03:37.28\00:03:42.22
NOTABLE ONES CAME UP TOWARD
THE FOUR WINDS OF HEAVEN."
00:03:42.25\00:03:45.72
ALRIGHT, WE'VE
GOT TO PAUSE THERE.
00:03:45.75\00:03:47.26
WE'LL COME BACK TO THIS CHAPTER,
BUT I JUST WANTED TO READ IT
00:03:47.29\00:03:49.06
RIGHT FROM THE BIBLE AND
NOW WE'RE GOING TO GO IN AND
00:03:49.09\00:03:51.26
INTERPRET/STUDY WHAT
DOES THIS DREAM MEAN.
00:03:51.29\00:03:54.46
ALRIGHT, QUESTION #1: DANIEL HAS
THIS AMAZING VISION - CHAPTER 8
00:03:54.46\00:03:59.73
- IN WHICH HE SEES
A RAM WITH TWO HORNS.
00:03:59.77\00:04:02.97
WHOM DOES THIS RAM REPRESENT?
LATER IN THE CHAPTER THE ANGEL
00:04:03.00\00:04:06.78
COMES TO DANIEL AND TELLS HIM
- YOU CAN READ IN VERSE 20, "THE
00:04:06.81\00:04:11.15
RAM WHICH YOU SAW, HAVING THE
TWO HORNS - THEY ARE THE KINGS
00:04:11.18\00:04:15.05
OF MEDIA AND PERSIA."
LATER IT SAYS ONE WAS - ONE OF
00:04:15.08\00:04:20.86
THOSE HORNS WAS BIGGER THAN THE
OTHER - IT STARTED OUT WITH THE
00:04:20.89\00:04:23.19
MEDIAN ONE, BUT THEN THE
PERSIAN KINGDOM BECAME GREATER.
00:04:23.22\00:04:27.40
LATER, THAT EMPIRE WAS
JUST CALLED THE PERSIAN EMPIRE
00:04:27.46\00:04:29.86
BECAUSE OF THAT OTHER
HORN. NOW THIS SHOULD ALSO BE
00:04:29.90\00:04:33.74
REMEMBERED THAT IF YOU'RE A JEW,
WHAT DO THEY DO GOING THROUGH
00:04:33.77\00:04:36.87
THE WILDERNESS? WHAT
WAS THEIR OCCUPATION?
00:04:36.91\00:04:38.91
ABRAHAM, ISAAC, JACOB,
JOSEPH, DAVID? SHEPHERDS.
00:04:38.94\00:04:42.01
THEY WERE VERY
FAMILIAR WITH SHEEPS AND GOATS.
00:04:42.04\00:04:45.15
JESUS COMPARED THE JUDGMENT
TO SHEEP AND GOATS AND SO HERE,
00:04:45.18\00:04:49.58
WITH THESE TWO CREATURES,
HE ILLUSTRATES THESE TWO GREAT
00:04:49.62\00:04:52.79
EMPIRES. ALRIGHT,
WE'RE GOING TO JUMP
00:04:52.82\00:04:55.36
RIGHT TO QUESTION #2.
NEXT DANIEL SAW THE GOAT WITH A
00:04:55.39\00:04:59.13
GREAT HORN BETWEEN HIS
EYES. WHAT DOES THIS MEAN?
00:04:59.16\00:05:02.96
THAT'S TALKING ABOUT THIS GOAT
IS REPRESENTING THE NEXT KING
00:05:03.00\00:05:07.67
AND HE ATTACKS THE RAM. IT
SAYS HE COMES FROM THE WEST.
00:05:07.70\00:05:12.37
THIS IS THE KINGDOM OF
GREECE COMING FROM THE WEST.
00:05:12.41\00:05:16.48
IT SAYS HE COMES VERY QUICKLY,
VERY FIERCELY - THERE IS NO
00:05:16.51\00:05:20.05
HISTORIAN THAT WILL DENY
THAT AMONG THE EMPIRES - ANCIENT
00:05:20.08\00:05:23.89
EMPIRES - NOBODY DID IT QUICKER
THAN ALEXANDER THE GREAT.
00:05:23.92\00:05:27.32
HE WAS 32 WHEN HE DIED.
FROM THE TIME HE WAS 19 UNTIL
00:05:27.36\00:05:31.23
ABOUT 24 HE WAS CONQUERING THE
WORLD. VERY RAPID - HIS SOLDIERS
00:05:31.26\00:05:35.63
MARCHED FASTER AND FARTHER
THAN JUST ABOUT ANYBODY ELSE.
00:05:35.66\00:05:39.60
AND SO THERE'S THIS BATTLE
BETWEEN THE TWO AND THE GOAT
00:05:39.63\00:05:43.57
DESTROYS THE RAM.
ALEXANDER DEFEATED DARIUS AND HE
00:05:43.61\00:05:48.88
CONQUERED THE PERSIAN EMPIRE
AND OVERTOOK THEIR TERRITORY.
00:05:48.91\00:05:52.45
DANIEL 8, VERSE 21 AND 22, "THE
ROUGH GOAT" - THE ANGEL TELLS US
00:05:52.48\00:05:57.45
- DO WE HAVE TO
GUESS WHAT IT IS?
00:05:57.49\00:05:58.89
- "THE ROUGH GOAT IS THE KING OF
(GREECE) GRECIA:" - IS HOW THEY
00:05:58.92\00:06:02.86
SAID IT IN THE KING JAMES - "AND
THE GREAT HORN THAT IS BETWEEN
00:06:02.89\00:06:05.83
HIS EYES IS THE FIRST KING."
00:06:05.86\00:06:09.00
NOW THIS IS EXACTLY WHAT
00:06:09.03\00:06:10.33
HAPPENED WITH
ALEXANDER THE GREAT.
00:06:10.37\00:06:12.60
IT SAYS HE CAME FROM THE WEST -
THAT'S WHERE HE CAME FROM, WHEN
00:06:12.63\00:06:14.64
YOU'RE GOING TO FIGHT PERSIA
- AND HE DID IT WITH FEROCITY.
00:06:14.67\00:06:17.91
HE DID IT WITH GREAT SPEED.
IN THE PRIOR CHAPTER - CHAPTER 7
00:06:17.94\00:06:21.71
OF DANIEL, GREECE IS COMPARED
TO A LEOPARD WITH FOUR WINGS
00:06:21.74\00:06:24.48
BECAUSE HIS FEET
DIDN'T EVEN TOUCH THE GROUND.
00:06:24.51\00:06:26.68
HE WENT SO QUICKLY
WITH HIS CONQUERING.
00:06:26.72\00:06:30.32
CONSIDERING THEY DID NOT HAVE
MECHANIZED ARMIES BACK THEN, NO
00:06:30.35\00:06:32.95
ARMY MOVED FASTER IN HISTORY
THAN ALEXANDER THE GREAT'S ARMY.
00:06:32.99\00:06:36.56
IT WAS JUST INCREDIBLE.
00:06:36.59\00:06:37.76
AND THEN IT SAYS THAT AT
THE HEIGHT OF ITS POWER, IN ITS
00:06:37.79\00:06:42.23
PRIME, THE HORN - THE MAIN,
PRINCIPLE HORN IS BROKEN OFF.
00:06:42.26\00:06:47.40
IT DOESN'T WEAR DOWN, IT
SNAPS. ALEXANDER DIED SUDDENLY.
00:06:47.44\00:06:52.54
THOUGH HE COULD CONQUER THE
WORLD, HE DIDN'T DO VERY WELL
00:06:52.57\00:06:55.14
CONQUERING HIMSELF.
AND THEY'RE STILL NOT SURE.
00:06:55.18\00:06:57.01
THEY DON'T - IT WAS AFTER A
NIGHT OF PRETTY ROWDY DRINKING
00:06:57.05\00:07:00.05
HE FELL ILL. THEY
DON'T KNOW IF SOMEONE TRIED
00:07:00.08\00:07:02.28
TO POISON HIM.
THEY'RE STILL NOT SURE AND WE
00:07:02.32\00:07:04.49
MAY NEVER KNOW UNTIL
HEAVEN WHAT EXACTLY HAPPENED.
00:07:04.52\00:07:06.99
THEY DON'T KNOW IF IT
WAS MALARIA. IT WAS A FEVER.
00:07:07.02\00:07:10.59
THEY DON'T KNOW IF IT WAS
ALCOHOL POISONING, BUT VERY
00:07:10.63\00:07:14.46
YOUNG HE DIED. AND ON
HIS DEATH BED, I THINK I
00:07:14.46\00:07:17.50
TOLD YOU, HIS WIFE ASKED HIM
'WHO WILL RULE IN YOUR PLACE?'
00:07:17.53\00:07:20.64
AND HE SAID, 'THE STRONGEST.'
AND THAT'S WHAT HAPPENED.
00:07:20.67\00:07:24.91
IT SAYS OUT OF THE PLACE OF THAT
- YOU CAN READ HERE IN THIS NEXT
00:07:24.94\00:07:28.08
SECTION - "NOW THAT BEING
BROKEN, WHEREAS FOUR STOOD UP
00:07:28.11\00:07:32.21
FOR IT, FOUR KINGDOMS SHALL
STAND UP OUT OF THE NATION."
00:07:32.25\00:07:37.39
THE FOUR PRINCIPLE GENERALS OF
ALEXANDER THE GREAT THEN DIVIDED
00:07:37.42\00:07:41.22
HIS EMPIRE AMONG
THEM INTO FOUR REGIONS.
00:07:41.26\00:07:44.83
AND THEN THEY EVENTUALLY
BEGAN TO FIGHT AMONG THEMSELVES.
00:07:44.86\00:07:48.43
BUT THE KINGDOM OF GREECE
THEN LASTED LONGER EVEN THAN THE
00:07:48.46\00:07:52.40
KINGDOM OF PERSIA.
QUESTION #3: THEN, AS YOU READ
00:07:52.43\00:07:56.91
ON IT SAYS OUT OF ONE OF THOSE
FOUR HORNS A LITTLE HORN BEGINS
00:07:56.94\00:08:02.71
TO SPROUT AND IT ENDS UP
BECOMING A VERY BIG POWER.
00:08:02.74\00:08:08.12
WHAT POWER DID THIS
LITTLE HORN REPRESENT?
00:08:08.15\00:08:11.22
YOU CAN SEE THE FULFILLMENT OF
THIS DURING THE TIME OF CHRIST.
00:08:11.25\00:08:13.82
WHAT EMPIRE
FOLLOWED THE GREEK EMPIRE?
00:08:13.86\00:08:16.76
>>ROME. >>ROME.
00:08:16.79\00:08:18.09
ACTS 2 - 18:2, RATHER -
"...CLAUDIUS (CAESAR) HAD
00:08:18.13\00:08:22.16
COMMANDED ALL JEWS
TO DEPART FROM ROME."
00:08:22.20\00:08:24.93
HE HAD CONTROL OVER THE WHOLE
EMPIRE AND AT THAT POINT HE WAS
00:08:24.97\00:08:27.90
SUSPICIOUS OF THE JEWS AND
TOLD THEM THEY HAD TO LEAVE.
00:08:27.94\00:08:31.11
SO YOU'VE GOT THIS GOAT
- JUST TO REVIEW - AND THE
00:08:31.14\00:08:34.84
PRINCIPLE POWER IS
ALEXANDER THE GREAT.
00:08:34.88\00:08:37.08
IT'S BROKEN OFF AND, FROM IT,
FOUR COME UP - FOUR OTHER HORNS
00:08:37.11\00:08:40.55
- FOUR DIVISIONS - FOUR GENERALS
OF ALEXANDER THE GREAT AND ONE
00:08:40.58\00:08:45.82
LITTLE HORN BEGINS TO
COME UP FROM AMONG THESE.
00:08:45.85\00:08:49.06
BUT NOW THERE'S SOMETHING
DIFFERENT ABOUT THIS POWER.
00:08:49.09\00:08:51.46
THIS POWER IS ONE WE WANT TO
NOTICE BECAUSE YOU READ ON, IT
00:08:51.49\00:08:54.56
GROWS INTO WHAT WE LATER
KNOW AS THE ANTICHRIST POWER.
00:08:54.60\00:08:58.70
YOU READ IN DANIEL 7, VERSE 8,
"...IN THE HORN WERE EYES LIKE
00:08:58.73\00:09:03.81
THE EYES OF MAN, AND A
MOUTH SPEAKING GREAT THINGS."
00:09:03.84\00:09:09.11
THERE'S SOMETHING
DIFFERENT ABOUT IT.
00:09:09.14\00:09:11.75
IT - LATER IT SAYS IT'S GUILTY
OF BLASPHEMY - POMPOUS WORDS.
00:09:11.78\00:09:18.12
AND IT TALKS ABOUT THIS ALSO
IN REVELATION CHAPTER 17 - WHAT
00:09:18.15\00:09:22.19
THIS POWER DOES.
DANIEL CHAPTER 7, VERSE 24
00:09:22.22\00:09:25.73
"HE IS DIVERSE, OR
DIFFERENT FROM, THE FIRST."
00:09:25.76\00:09:30.80
THE FIRST KINGDOMS THAT WE
SAW, WHETHER IT'S BABYLON, OR
00:09:30.83\00:09:35.04
MEDO-PERSIA, AND GREECE - THEY
WERE YOUR TYPICAL MONARCHIES LED
00:09:35.07\00:09:38.74
BY A GOVERNMENT. BUT
WHAT HAPPENED WITH ROME,
00:09:38.77\00:09:41.04
ROME NOT ONLY WAS THE IRON
MONARCHY, AS THE ROMAN EMPIRE
00:09:41.08\00:09:44.71
LED BY CAESARS BEGAN TO FALL, IN
ITS PLACE, THE ROMAN POWER WAS
00:09:44.75\00:09:50.75
SUBSTITUTED WITH A RELIGIOUS
POWER. GRADUALLY, AS THE ROMAN
00:09:50.79\00:09:55.69
POWER BEGAN TO CRUMBLE,
THE CHRISTIAN CHURCH GREW.
00:09:55.72\00:09:57.76
BUT IT DIDN'T JUST STAY A
RELIGION, IT BECAME A POLITICAL
00:09:57.79\00:10:01.40
RELIGIOUS POWER AS WELL.
YOU KNOW WHAT I'M TALKING ABOUT.
00:10:01.43\00:10:05.47
QUESTION #4: DANIEL WAS
TOLD THAT THIS LITTLE HORN WOULD
00:10:05.50\00:10:09.24
DEFILE THE SANCTUARY. HOW
LONG WOULD IT BE UNTIL THE
00:10:09.27\00:10:13.61
SANCTUARY WAS CLEANSED?
NOW WE'RE GOING TO GET INTO THE
00:10:13.64\00:10:16.64
LONGEST TIME
PROPHECY IN THE BIBLE.
00:10:16.68\00:10:18.81
AND YOU READ IN DANIEL 8, VERSE
14, "UNTO" - SAY IT WITH ME -
00:10:18.85\00:10:22.78
"TWO THOUSAND AND THREE HUNDRED
DAYS; THEN SHALL THE SANCTUARY
00:10:22.82\00:10:27.82
BE CLEANSED." NOW GO - GO BACK
TO YOUR BIBLES FOR A SECOND.
00:10:27.86\00:10:31.03
IF YOU LOOK IN DANIEL CHAPTER 8
AND IF WE READ DOWN HERE - VERSE
00:10:31.06\00:10:36.70
12 - "BECAUSE OF TRANSGRESSION,
AN ARMY WAS GIVEN OVER TO THE
00:10:36.73\00:10:41.24
HORN TO OPPOSE THE DAILY
SACRIFICES; AND HE CAST TRUTH
00:10:41.27\00:10:45.04
DOWN TO THE GROUND. HE
DID ALL THIS AND PROSPERED."
00:10:45.07\00:10:51.85
SO WHAT'S HAPPENING IS THE TRUTH
OF GOD AND THE TRUTH OF THE
00:10:51.88\00:10:55.92
BIBLE AND THE TRUTH
OF JESUS DURING THIS TIME
00:10:55.95\00:10:57.92
BECOMES COMPROMISED
AND YET IT PROSPERS.
00:10:57.95\00:11:01.62
WELL, I'M GOING TO GIVE
YOU A LITTLE QUICK HISTORY.
00:11:01.66\00:11:04.33
I WON'T DIVERGE ON THIS, BUT
I THINK MOST OF US KNOW THAT,
00:11:04.36\00:11:09.40
DURING THIS PERIOD OF TIME,
YOU KNOW, ABOUT THREE OR FOUR
00:11:09.43\00:11:13.47
HUNDRED YEARS AFTER CHRIST,
ORIGINALLY CHRISTIANS WERE
00:11:13.50\00:11:16.60
PERSECUTED IN ROME.
THEY FED THEM TO THE LIONS,
00:11:16.64\00:11:19.61
RIGHT? I USED TO WONDER AS A
KID. I'D HEAR HOW THEY BURNED
00:11:19.64\00:11:22.21
CHRISTIANS AT THE STAKE AND
THEY FED THEM TO THE LIONS - YOU
00:11:22.24\00:11:26.18
KNOW, THEY MADE JOKES
ABOUT THAT ALL THE TIME.
00:11:26.21\00:11:28.52
AND THEN, ALL OF A SUDDEN,
ROME BECOMES THE CENTER OF
00:11:28.55\00:11:31.25
CHRISTIANITY. AND
YOU GO, 'WHAT HAPPENED?
00:11:31.29\00:11:33.29
I THOUGHT THAT THEY WEREN'T
ALLOWED THERE AND THEN ALL OF
00:11:33.32\00:11:35.02
A SUDDEN IT
BECOMES HEADQUARTERS.
00:11:35.06\00:11:36.79
SOMETHING
OBVIOUSLY CHANGED, RIGHT?
00:11:36.83\00:11:39.03
AND REALLY, WHAT HAPPENED
WAS, WITH THE CONVERSION OF
00:11:39.06\00:11:42.93
CONSTANTINE - I'LL SAY MORE
ABOUT THIS LATER, WHAT WAS ONCE
00:11:42.96\00:11:46.50
CONSIDERED RELIGIO-ILLICITA
- FORBIDDEN RELIGION - WAS
00:11:46.53\00:11:50.01
PERSECUTED, OUTLAWED - THEY WERE
KILLED. THEY BUILT CATACOMBS.
00:11:50.04\00:11:53.31
THEY WENT UNDERGROUND -
IT SUDDENLY BECAME THE STATE
00:11:53.34\00:11:56.44
RELIGION AND IT ALMOST OVERNIGHT
BECAME FASHIONABLE, WITH THE
00:11:56.48\00:11:59.61
CONVERSION OF CONSTANTINE,
TO BECOME A CHRISTIAN.
00:11:59.65\00:12:02.82
BUT WHAT HAPPENED IS A LOT OF
PEOPLE STARTED COMING INTO THE
00:12:02.85\00:12:05.85
CHURCH FROM THE DIFFERENT
GRECO-ROMAN RELIGIONS THAT
00:12:05.89\00:12:08.59
WEREN'T TOTALLY CONVERTED -
DIDN'T EVEN KNOW THE TEACHINGS
00:12:08.62\00:12:11.76
OF JESUS - AND THEY TRIED TO
BRING SOME OF THEIR PAGAN IDEAS
00:12:11.79\00:12:14.10
WITH THEM.
00:12:14.13\00:12:15.80
>>DON'T GO ANYWHERE, FRIENDS,

00:12:40.92\00:12:43.43

WELL, LET'S GET BACK TO TODAY'S
PRESENTATION AND LEARN SOME MORE
00:12:58.01\00:13:00.78
AMAZING FACTS
FROM THE WORD OF GOD.
00:13:00.81\00:13:02.91
WE STUDIED THE OTHER NIGHT ABOUT
00:13:04.81\00:13:06.78
THE TRUTH ABOUT HELL - THAT
PEOPLE DO NOT GO RIGHT AT DEATH
00:13:06.82\00:13:12.22
TO - BEFORE JUDGMENT OR
RESURRECTION - A PLACE OF
00:13:12.25\00:13:15.02
BURNING WHERE THEY BURN THROUGH
ALL ETERNITY. DID WE - WE
00:13:15.06\00:13:17.29
LEARNED THERE IS A LAKE OF
FIRE, THERE IS A PUNISHMENT, BUT
00:13:17.33\00:13:19.56
THERE'S MISUNDERSTANDING THAT
CAME IN FROM GREEK MYTHOLOGY,
00:13:19.59\00:13:22.93
RIGHT? CAST THE TRUTH
TO THE GROUND IN PRACTICE.
00:13:22.96\00:13:26.43
THE IDEA OF PURGATORY, THIS
HALFWAY BURNING PLACE, WE FOUND
00:13:26.47\00:13:29.70
OUT THAT THAT'S BEEN
RENOUNCED. IT'S NOT BIBLICAL.
00:13:29.74\00:13:32.37
THERE'S NOTHING IN
THE BIBLE ABOUT THAT.
00:13:32.41\00:13:33.81
THE IDEA THAT THE DEAD GO
IMMEDIATELY TO HEAVEN AS SOON AS
00:13:33.84\00:13:37.21
THEY DIE AND THEN THEY COME BACK
FOR THEIR BODIES OR THEY'RE IN
00:13:37.25\00:13:40.38
ABRAHAM'S BOSOM WAITING.
WE FOUND OUT THAT'S NOT IN THE
00:13:40.42\00:13:43.39
BIBLE AND A LOT OF OTHER THINGS
- THE TRUTH WAS CAST TO THE
00:13:43.42\00:13:47.59
GROUND. THE IDEA
THAT YOU DON'T NEED TO
00:13:47.62\00:13:50.16
KEEP THE TEN COMMANDMENTS
ANYMORE BECAUSE ONCE YOU BELIEVE
00:13:50.19\00:13:52.86
IN JESUS YOU CAN SOMEHOW IGNORE
HIS LAW, THAT'S ANOTHER ONE OF
00:13:52.89\00:13:57.23
THE TRUTHS THAT
WAS CAST TO THE GROUND.
00:13:57.27\00:13:59.23
ALL KINDS OF THINGS BEGAN TO
GET CORRUPTED DURING THIS TIME.
00:13:59.27\00:14:02.27
SO, WHEN WOULD THERE BE A
CLEANSING OF THE SANCTUARY?
00:14:02.30\00:14:07.14
ALRIGHT, QUESTION #5: HOW DID
DANIEL RESPOND WHEN HE SAW THIS
00:14:07.18\00:14:10.95
LITTLE HORN POWER PERSECUTE
GOD'S PEOPLE AND OBSCURE THE
00:14:10.98\00:14:14.58
TRUTH? WHEN
DANIEL WAS GETTING THIS
00:14:14.62\00:14:17.49
INFORMATION ABOUT THIS VISION
FROM THE ANGEL, HE JUST - HE
00:14:17.52\00:14:22.06
SEES WHAT'S HAPPENING TO HIS
OWN PEOPLE AND HE'S HEARTBROKEN.
00:14:22.09\00:14:24.53
AND IT SAYS IN DANIEL 8:27, "AND
I, DANIEL, FAINTED AND WAS SICK
00:14:24.56\00:14:30.30
FOR DAYS;" - HE'S AN OLDER
MAN NOW, YOU KNOW, HE CAME TO
00:14:30.33\00:14:34.67
BABYLON PROBABLY 15 - 16 YEARS
OLD - SEVENTY YEARS HAVE GONE
00:14:34.70\00:14:37.51
BY. HE'S IN HIS 80S, MAYBE EVEN
00:14:37.54\00:14:40.04
LONGER, AND HE HAS THIS VERY
HEAVY VISION OF GOD'S PEOPLE
00:14:40.08\00:14:44.31
BEING PERSECUTED BY THIS
ANTICHRIST POWER AND IT - HE
00:14:44.35\00:14:49.12
ACTUALLY SWOONS, PRACTICALLY.
HE'S SICK AND HE CAN'T
00:14:49.15\00:14:52.25
UNDERSTAND IT AND THE ANGEL
KNOWS HE'S GOING TO HAVE TO
00:14:52.29\00:14:54.69
COME BACK AND FINISH
EXPLAINING THIS PROPHECY.
00:14:54.72\00:14:56.66
IT'S FINISHED IN
DANIEL CHAPTER 9.
00:14:56.69\00:15:00.06
NOW YOU CAN UNDERSTAND,
DANIEL IS A YOUNG MAN.
00:15:00.10\00:15:03.73
BEFORE HE IS CARRIED OFF CAPTIVE
TO BABYLON, THE MOST BEAUTIFUL
00:15:03.77\00:15:09.97
BUILDING IN THE WORLD WAS NOT
THE TAJ MAHAL BACK THEN, IT WAS
00:15:10.01\00:15:13.61
NOT EVEN THE HANGING GARDENS.
THE MOST BEAUTIFUL BUILDING IN
00:15:13.64\00:15:16.51
THE WORLD WAS A MULTI-BILLION
DOLLAR BUILDING BUILT BY DAVID,
00:15:16.54\00:15:20.55
WHO GATHERED THE MONEY
AND HIS SON SOLOMON DID THE
00:15:20.58\00:15:23.69
CONSTRUCTION. IT
HAD GOLDEN ROOMS.
00:15:23.72\00:15:27.72
IT HAD BRONZE PILLARS
BIGGER THAN ANY IN THE WORLD.
00:15:27.76\00:15:30.46
THEY EVEN NAMED THEM - TWO
PILLARS THEY WERE SO BIG - AND
00:15:30.49\00:15:33.83
DANIEL GREW UP AS A BOY
SEEING THIS MAJESTIC TEMPLE.
00:15:33.86\00:15:38.17
IT WAS ONE OF THE
WONDERS OF THE WORLD.
00:15:38.20\00:15:40.57
BUT HE LIVED LONG ENOUGH
TO KNOW THAT IT WAS DESTROYED.
00:15:40.60\00:15:44.11
HE WATCHED - DANIEL WATCHED
AS HIS PEOPLE WERE CONQUERED.
00:15:44.14\00:15:46.61
THE CITY WAS DESTROYED -
JERUSALEM - THE PLACE THAT GOD
00:15:46.64\00:15:49.44
HAD CHOSEN, DAVID HAD RULED.
THEY WERE SCATTERED AS SLAVES -
00:15:49.48\00:15:53.68
MANY WERE SLAIN - AND THE
YEARNING OF DANIEL'S HEART FOR
00:15:53.72\00:15:57.05
THE SEVENTY YEARS HE WAS IN
BABYLON: 'WHEN WILL THE MESSIAH
00:15:57.09\00:16:00.52
COME? WHEN WILL
THE SON OF DAVID COME?
00:16:00.56\00:16:02.46
WHEN WILL WE GET TO GO BACK TO
JERUSALEM?' AT THE BEGINNING OF
00:16:02.49\00:16:06.39
DANIEL 9 IT ACTUALLY SAYS
DANIEL IS READING THE BIBLE.
00:16:06.43\00:16:10.63
NOW HE DIDN'T HAVE THE SAME
BIBLE WE HAVE, BUT HE HAD THE
00:16:10.67\00:16:12.90
PROPHECIES OF JEREMIAH, ISAIAH,
DAVID - ALL THE PRIOR PROPHETS.
00:16:12.93\00:16:18.67
DANIEL IS READING THE PROPHECY
OF JEREMIAH - HE TELLS YOU IN
00:16:18.71\00:16:22.04
CHAPTER 9 - AND HE REALIZES
THERE JEREMIAH SAYS SEVENTY
00:16:22.08\00:16:25.18
YEARS AND GOD'S PEOPLE WILL COME
BACK AND DANIEL SAYS, 'LORD,
00:16:25.21\00:16:27.95
SEVENTY YEARS IS UP. THE
KING OF PERSIA IS NOW HERE.
00:16:27.98\00:16:30.42
WHEN ARE WE GOING HOME?'
00:16:30.45\00:16:31.95
WHILE HE'S PRAYING, THE ANGEL
GABRIEL COMES TO HIM AND HE
00:16:31.99\00:16:37.39
SAYS, 'DANIEL, I'VE COME TO
GIVE YOU UNDERSTANDING IN THE
00:16:37.43\00:16:40.46
VISION.' AND HERE
- HERE YOU HAVE THAT.
00:16:40.50\00:16:42.43
HE SAYS, "AT THE BEGINNING OF
YOUR SUPPLICATIONS THE COMMAND
00:16:42.46\00:16:46.07
WENT OUT, AND I HAVE COME
TO TELL YOU," - SO ANGEL - THE
00:16:46.10\00:16:48.50
ANGEL GABRIEL HAS COME TO
EXPLAIN THE VISION. WHAT VISION?
00:16:48.54\00:16:51.44
THE ONE HE STARTED HAVING
IN CHAPTER 8 BUT HE FAINTED.
00:16:51.47\00:16:54.64
SO THIS IS THE ONE THAT'S
ACTUALLY INTRODUCING THE COMING
00:16:54.68\00:16:58.41
OF THE MESSIAH - THE
FIRST COMING OF JESUS.
00:16:58.45\00:17:02.08
QUESTION #6: IN THE NEXT CHAPTER
THE ANGEL EXPLAINS THE PROPHECY
00:17:02.12\00:17:07.32
IN GREATER DETAIL. HOW
LONG WAS THE TIME PERIOD NOT
00:17:07.36\00:17:11.13
PREVIOUSLY
DESCRIBED IN THE VISION?
00:17:11.16\00:17:14.30
NOW GET YOUR BIBLES,
TURN WITH ME TO DANIEL 9:23.
00:17:14.36\00:17:19.57
"AT THE BEGINNING OF YOUR
SUPPLICATIONS THE COMMAND WENT
00:17:19.60\00:17:22.74
OUT, AND I HAVE COME TO
TELL YOU, FOR YOU ARE GREATLY
00:17:22.77\00:17:26.14
BELOVED;" - WHY ANGELS ARE FAST.
AT THE BEGINNING OF DANIEL'S
00:17:26.17\00:17:29.78
PRAYER, GABRIEL IS SENT.
ANGEL'S DON'T TRAVEL THE SPEED
00:17:29.81\00:17:32.95
OF SOUND OR THE SPEED OF LIGHT,
THEY TRAVEL THE SPEED OF ANGELS
00:17:32.98\00:17:38.25
- THE SPEED OF THOUGHT,
ANYWAY, THEY'RE GOING FAST.
00:17:38.29\00:17:40.49
HE'S GOING THROUGH THE COSMOS
- "AT THE BEGINNING OF YOUR
00:17:40.52\00:17:43.83
SUPPLICATIONS THE COMMAND WENT
OUT, AND I HAVE COME TO TELL
00:17:43.86\00:17:46.26
YOU, FOR YOU ARE GREATLY
BELOVED; THEREFORE CONSIDER THE
00:17:46.29\00:17:48.13
MATTER AND UNDERSTAND THE
VISION:" NOW THERE'S NO VISION
00:17:48.16\00:17:51.03
IN CHAPTER 9 SO WHAT VISION
IS THE ANGEL TALKING ABOUT?
00:17:51.07\00:17:54.34
THE ONE IN CHAPTER 8 HE DIDN'T
GET TO FINISH EXPLAINING BECAUSE
00:17:54.37\00:17:57.74
DANIEL FAINTED, RIGHT?
"SEVENTY WEEKS" - HERE WE GO,
00:17:57.77\00:18:02.01
VERSE 24 - DANIEL 9:24 -
"SEVENTY WEEKS ARE DETERMINED
00:18:02.04\00:18:05.81
FOR YOUR PEOPLE" -
WHO ARE DANIEL'S PEOPLE?
00:18:05.85\00:18:08.08
JEWISH NATION - "SEVENTY WEEKS"
- THE WORD DETERMINED THERE
00:18:08.12\00:18:12.29
MEANS 'CUT OFF' OR 'ALLOTTED' OR
'REMAIN' - "FOR YOUR PEOPLE" -
00:18:12.32\00:18:15.59
FOR WHAT? TO
INTRODUCE THE MESSIAH TO THE
00:18:15.62\00:18:18.16
WORLD - "FOR YOUR HOLY CITY,
TO FINISH THE TRANSGRESSION, TO
00:18:18.19\00:18:23.87
MAKE AN END OF SINS," - THE
FINAL SACRIFICE FOR SIN WOULD BE
00:18:23.90\00:18:26.94
OFFERED - "TO MAKE
RECONCILIATION FOR INIQUITY, TO
00:18:26.97\00:18:30.67
BRING IN EVERLASTING
RIGHTEOUSNESS" - THAT'S CHRIST
00:18:30.71\00:18:33.88
WHO BRINGS THAT EVERLASTING
RIGHTEOUSNESS - "TO SEAL UP
00:18:33.91\00:18:36.31
VISION AND PROPHECY, AND
TO ANOINT THE MOST HOLY."
00:18:36.34\00:18:42.32
YOU KNOW WHAT THE
WORD CHRIST MEANS?
00:18:42.35\00:18:44.49
ANOINTED. YOU KNOW
WHAT THE WORD MESSIAH
00:18:44.52\00:18:47.46
MEANS? IT'S HEBREW FOR ANOINTED.
00:18:47.49\00:18:50.59
WHEN THE PROPHET SAMUEL POURED
OIL ON DAVID'S HEAD, HE WAS
00:18:50.63\00:18:55.20
ANOINTED WITH OIL - JESUS WAS
ANOINTED WITH THE HOLY SPIRIT.
00:18:55.23\00:18:59.00
HE WAS THE ANOINTED OF GOD
WHEN GOD BECAME A MAN, OKAY?
00:18:59.03\00:19:03.17
SO HE SAID SEVENTY WEEKS ARE
DETERMINED FOR ALL THESE THINGS
00:19:03.20\00:19:05.14
TO BE ACCOMPLISHED.
KNOW AND UNDERSTAND.
00:19:05.17\00:19:07.74
NOW HERE'S THE STARTING POINT
FOR ALL THESE PROPHECIES - VERSE
00:19:07.78\00:19:11.08
25 - "KNOW THEREFORE AND
UNDERSTAND, THAT FROM THE GOING
00:19:11.11\00:19:13.65
FORTH OF THE COMMAND TO RESTORE
AND BUILD JERUSALEM UNTIL
00:19:13.68\00:19:17.22
MESSIAH THE PRINCE, THERE SHALL
BE SEVEN WEEKS AND SIXTY-TWO
00:19:17.25\00:19:23.86
WEEKS;" THAT'S A TOTAL OF
69 - "THE STREET SHALL BE BUILT
00:19:23.89\00:19:27.86
AGAIN, AND THE WALL,
EVEN IN TROUBLESOME TIMES."
00:19:27.86\00:19:30.33
THAT'S WHAT HAPPENED
DURING THE TIME OF NEHEMIAH.
00:19:30.37\00:19:32.10
THEY REBUILT THE STREET AND
THE WALL DURING TROUBLOUS TIMES.
00:19:32.13\00:19:34.47
"AND AFTER THE SIXTY-TWO WEEKS
MESSIAH SHALL BE CUT OFF, BUT
00:19:34.50\00:19:40.28
NOT FOR HIMSELF; AND THE PEOPLE
OF THE PRINCE WHO IS TO COME
00:19:40.31\00:19:43.98
SHALL DESTROY THE
CITY AND THE SANCTUARY.
00:19:44.01\00:19:46.88
THE END OF IT SHALL BE WITH
A FLOOD, AND TILL THE END OF
00:19:46.92\00:19:50.22
THE WAR
DESOLATIONS ARE DETERMINED."
00:19:50.25\00:19:52.39
JESUS TALKS ABOUT THE
ABOMINATION THAT MAKES DESOLATE.
00:19:52.42\00:19:55.29
"THEN HE SHALL CONFIRM A
COVENANT WITH MANY FOR ONE
00:19:55.32\00:19:58.69
WEEK;" - NOW THE 'HE' THAT
CONFIRMS THE COVENANT - THERE'S
00:19:58.73\00:20:02.63
TWO PEOPLE HERE - ONE YOU'VE GOT
MESSIAH THE PRINCE COMING, THE
00:20:02.66\00:20:05.07
OTHER YOU'VE GOT A PRINCE
THAT COMES TO DESTROY. 27 - HE'S
00:20:05.10\00:20:08.04
GOING BACK TO THE MESSIAH
THE PRINCE. HE WILL "CONFIRM A
00:20:08.07\00:20:11.54
COVENANT WITH MANY FOR ONE WEEK;
BUT IN THE MIDDLE OF THE WEEK
00:20:11.57\00:20:14.38
HE SHALL BRING AN END
TO SACRIFICE AND OFFERING.
00:20:14.41\00:20:17.25
AND ON THE WING OF ABOMINATION
SHALL BE ONE WHO MAKES DESOLATE,
00:20:17.28\00:20:20.12
EVEN UNTIL THE CONSUMMATION,
WHICH IS DETERMINED, IS POURED
00:20:20.15\00:20:23.49
OUT ON THE DESOLATE." SO
WE NEED TO UNDERSTAND THIS.
00:20:23.52\00:20:26.39
JESUS SAID, IN MATTHEW 24
- SECOND COMING - JESUS TALKS
00:20:26.42\00:20:30.59
ABOUT THE ABOMINATION OF
DESOLATION. HE SAYS 'WRITTEN OF
00:20:30.63\00:20:33.03
BY DANIEL THE
PROPHET. WHOEVER READS, LET HIM
00:20:33.06\00:20:35.93
UNDERSTAND.' JESUS IS TELLING
YOU AND ME TONIGHT, 'I WANT YOU
00:20:35.96\00:20:38.90
TO READ AND
UNDERSTAND THIS.' OKAY?
00:20:38.93\00:20:40.94
SO THIS IS THE PROPHECIES HE WAS
REFERRING TO IN MATTHEW 24 THAT
00:20:40.97\00:20:45.17
HE SAYS WE SHOULD UNDERSTAND.
ALRIGHT, WE JUST READ IT.
00:20:45.21\00:20:47.74
NOW LET'S GO BACK
TO OUR SCREEN HERE.
00:20:47.78\00:20:49.84
IN THE NEXT CHAPTER, CHAPTER
9, THE ANGEL EXPLAINS THAT THE
00:20:49.88\00:20:54.52
PROPHECY - FROM
CHAPTER 8 - IN GREATER DETAIL.
00:20:54.55\00:20:58.05
HOW LONG WAS THE TIME PERIOD
NOT PREVIOUSLY DESCRIBED IN THE
00:20:58.09\00:21:02.12
VISION? YOU CAN READ THAT IN
DANIEL 9:24. HE SAYS, HOW MUCH?
00:21:02.16\00:21:06.90
"SEVENTY WEEKS ARE DETERMINED
UPON THY PEOPLE AND UPON THE
00:21:06.93\00:21:12.00
HOLY CITY TO SEAL UP THE
VISION AND THE PROPHECY."
00:21:12.03\00:21:13.87
NOW HOW MANY DAYS
IN A WEEK? >>SEVEN.
00:21:13.90\00:21:17.91
>>SEVEN IT'S ALWAYS BEEN THAT
WAY. HOW MANY DAYS IS SEVENTY
00:21:17.94\00:21:22.18
WEEKS THEN?
SEVEN TIMES SEVEN IS?
00:21:22.21\00:21:24.85
>>SEVENTY-NINE.
>>FORTY-NINE? THAT IS FOUR
00:21:24.88\00:21:28.28
HUNDRED AND NINETY, RIGHT? BUT
IN PROPHECY A DAY EQUALS A YEAR.
00:21:28.32\00:21:35.29
I'LL SHOW YOU SOME SCRIPTURES
ON THAT IN JUST A MINUTE.
00:21:35.32\00:21:37.63
SO GOD IS TELLING DANIEL THERE
ARE FOUR HUNDRED AND NINETY
00:21:37.66\00:21:41.40
PROPHETIC YEARS THAT ARE GOING
TO BE ALLOTTED TO YOUR PEOPLE TO
00:21:41.43\00:21:44.23
FULFILL THEIR MAIN VISION - THE
MAIN MISSION OF THE JEWS WAS TO
00:21:44.27\00:21:47.37
INTRODUCE THE MESSIAH.
GOD SAID TO ABRAHAM, THROUGH
00:21:47.40\00:21:50.44
YOUR SEED ALL THE
WORLD WOULD BE BLESSED.
00:21:50.47\00:21:53.07
HOW IS THE WHOLE WORLD
BLESSED THROUGH HIS SEED?
00:21:53.11\00:21:55.38
PRINCIPALLY
THROUGH JESUS, RIGHT?
00:21:55.41\00:21:57.18
ALRIGHT, SO QUESTION #7: WHAT
IS THE STARTING POINT FOR THE
00:21:57.21\00:22:02.28
2,300-DAY AND
SEVENTY-WEEK TIME PROPHECIES?
00:22:02.32\00:22:06.99
HE TELLS YOU RIGHT THERE
IN DANIEL CHAPTER 9, VERSE 25,
00:22:07.02\00:22:10.39
"KNOW THEREFORE AND UNDERSTAND,
THAT FROM THE GOING FORTH OF THE
00:22:10.43\00:22:14.00
COMMANDMENT TO RESTORE AND BUILD
JERUSALEM UNTIL MESSIAH THE
00:22:14.03\00:22:19.17
PRINCE" - FROM THIS POINT
TO THIS POINT - "THERE SHALL BE
00:22:19.20\00:22:22.50
SEVEN WEEKS AND THREE-SCORE AND
TWO WEEKS" - THREE SCORE AND TWO
00:22:22.54\00:22:26.47
IS SIXTY-TWO,
RIGHT? A SCORE IS TWENTY.
00:22:26.51\00:22:28.84
SIXTY-TWO PLUS
SEVEN IS HOW MUCH?
00:22:28.88\00:22:32.41
SIXTY-NINE. SO
YOU'VE GOT ONE WEEK MISSING.
00:22:32.45\00:22:35.25
HE TELLS US WHAT HAPPENS IN
THE MIDST OF THAT LAST WEEK - HE
00:22:35.28\00:22:38.59
MAKES THE SACRIFICE CEASE.
SO HE BREAKS IT UP LIKE THAT
00:22:38.62\00:22:41.49
BECAUSE THERE'S
THE FIRST SEVEN WEEKS.
00:22:41.52\00:22:43.89
THEY'RE BUILDING
THE WALL AND THE STREET.
00:22:43.93\00:22:45.43
THEN YOU'VE GOT ANOTHER
SIXTY-NINE WEEKS AND AT THE END
00:22:45.46\00:22:48.03
OF THAT SIXTY-NINE WEEK PERIOD
IT SAYS THAT THE MESSIAH IS
00:22:48.06\00:22:52.30
GOING TO BE ANOINTED
AND BEGIN HIS MINISTRY.
00:22:52.33\00:22:57.34
SO UNTIL MESSIAH THE PRINCE,
SEVEN WEEKS - THREE SCORE AND
00:22:57.37\00:23:01.51
TWO WEEKS. THE
STARTING POINT IS FROM THE
00:23:01.54\00:23:03.41
GOING FORTH OF THE COMMAND
TO RESTORE AND BUILD JERUSALEM.
00:23:03.45\00:23:06.55
CAN WE KNOW, FROM ALL THE DUSTY,
MUSTY RECORDS OF HISTORY, WHEN
00:23:06.58\00:23:09.98
DID THAT HAPPEN? GOOD NEWS.
00:23:10.02\00:23:12.55
IT'S GIVEN IN YOUR
BIBLE. IT'S IN EZRA 7:7.
00:23:12.59\00:23:16.49
YOU CAN REMEMBER
THAT. GOOD NUMBER.
00:23:16.52\00:23:18.59
EZRA 7:7 - THE DECREE OF KING
ARTAXERXES - THAT KING GAVE A
00:23:18.63\00:23:24.57
DECREE THAT
ALLOWED THEM TO GO BACK.
00:23:24.60\00:23:26.43
IT WAS THE MOST PROMINENT
VARIETY OF DECREES THAT CAME
00:23:26.47\00:23:30.87
SAYING THAT THEY COULD
REBUILD THE CITY AND THE WALLS
00:23:30.91\00:23:33.91
AND THE TEMPLE
AND THAT IS 457 B.C.
00:23:33.94\00:23:38.08
IT IS A VERY CLEARLY
ESTABLISHED DATE IN HISTORY.
00:23:38.11\00:23:40.85
SO YOU'VE GOT THE STARTING POINT
- 457 - AND HE SAYS NOW IT'LL BE
00:23:40.88\00:23:45.25
SIXTY-NINE WEEKS UNTIL THE
MESSIAH BEGINS HIS MINISTRY.
00:23:45.29\00:23:49.29
FIRST THERE'D BE THE SEVEN WEEKS
- FORTY-NINE YEARS WHILE THEY'RE
00:23:49.32\00:23:52.29
BUILDING THE STREET AND THE WALL
IN TROUBLOUS TIMES, THEN THERE'D
00:23:52.33\00:23:54.83
BE ANOTHER SIXTY-TWO WEEKS -
A TOTAL OF SIXTY-NINE, RIGHT?
00:23:54.86\00:23:59.00
NOW WHEN YOU'RE INTERPRETING
BIBLE PROPHECY, WHAT IS THE
00:23:59.03\00:24:01.64
PRINCIPLE THAT YOU'RE SUPPOSED
TO USE? A DAY EQUALS A YEAR.
00:24:01.67\00:24:07.51
>>A YEAR. >>YOU
CAN READ THIS - THERE'S
00:24:07.54\00:24:09.41
SEVERAL VERSES IN EZEKIEL 4:6,
"I HAVE APPOINTED THEE EACH DAY
00:24:09.44\00:24:12.41
FOR A YEAR." YOU CAN READ
NUMBERS 14:34 "EACH DAY FOR A
00:24:12.45\00:24:17.69
YEAR" - EVEN
JESUS ESTABLISHED THIS.
00:24:17.72\00:24:22.02
ONE TIME THEY CAME TO CHRIST
- I THINK IT'S LUKE 13 AND THEY
00:24:22.06\00:24:24.23
SAID, 'YOU BETTER BE CAREFUL,
JESUS, JOHN THE BAPTIST HAS BEEN
00:24:24.26\00:24:27.60
ARRESTED.' THIS WAS ABOUT SIX
MONTHS INTO JESUS' MINISTRY AND
00:24:27.60\00:24:31.50
JESUS SAID, "GO TELL THAT FOX I
TEACH, DO CURES, CAST OUT DEVILS
00:24:31.53\00:24:36.27
TODAY, TOMORROW, AND THE THIRD
DAY I WILL BE PERFECTED" - OR
00:24:36.30\00:24:41.51
COMPLETED. JESUS
DIDN'T TEACH THREE MORE
00:24:41.54\00:24:43.55
DAYS; HE TAUGHT
THREE MORE YEARS.
00:24:43.58\00:24:45.65
BUT HE MADE A PROPHECY
AND HE USED THE DAY FOR A YEAR
00:24:45.68\00:24:48.65
PRINCIPLE. SO WHEN
YOU INTERPRET THESE
00:24:48.68\00:24:50.99
PROPHECIES, THAT'S THE ONLY WAY
IT EVEN COMES CLOSE TO ADDING
00:24:51.02\00:24:53.96
UP. SO NOW DID IT HAPPEN?
IF YOU GO - A DAY EQUALS A YEAR
00:24:53.99\00:24:59.73
IN PROPHECY - IF YOU
GO 483 YEARS FROM 457 B.C.
00:24:59.76\00:25:05.13
IT COMES TO THE
BAPTISM OF JESUS IN 27 A.D.
00:25:05.17\00:25:09.57
WHEN I - WHEN I WAS UP IN THE
CAVE AND I READ THIS, I WAS SO
00:25:09.60\00:25:12.81
EXCITED WHEN I REALIZED HOW TRUE
PROPHECY IS, I LITERALLY GOT UP
00:25:12.84\00:25:17.78
- I COULDN'T SIT DOWN ANYMORE
BECAUSE I WAS SO EXCITED.
00:25:17.81\00:25:20.45
I'M ALL BY MYSELF AND I JUST
STARTED JUMPING UP AND DOWN AND
00:25:20.48\00:25:22.92
PRAISING GOD. I SAID,
'WOW, CHRIST CAME RIGHT
00:25:22.95\00:25:25.89
ON TIME THE FIRST TIME
JUST LIKE HE SAID HE WOULD.
00:25:25.92\00:25:27.72
WHY DON'T MORE
PEOPLE BELIEVE THE BIBLE?'
00:25:27.76\00:25:30.09
SO WE'VE GOT A COUPLE OF CHARTS
HERE THAT WE'RE GOING TO PUT UP
00:25:30.13\00:25:33.76
JUST TO REVIEW
WHAT WE'RE LOOKING AT.
00:25:33.80\00:25:36.06
FIRST WE KNOW, FROM 457, YOU'VE
GOT SIXTY-NINE WEEKS - THAT
00:25:36.10\00:25:41.04
WOULD GO 483 YEARS TO
THE POINT OF HIS BAPTISM.
00:25:41.07\00:25:45.74
THAT WOULD BE 27 A.D. AND
IT HAPPENED RIGHT ON TIME.
00:25:45.77\00:25:50.28
AND THEN IT TELLS US, "AFTER
THREE SCORE AND TWO WEEKS SHALL
00:25:50.31\00:25:55.05
MESSIAH BE" - WHAT? >>CUT OFF.
00:25:55.08\00:25:57.92
>>"CUT OFF. BUT
NOT FOR HIMSELF."
00:25:57.95\00:26:00.86
WHO WAS HE CUT OFF FOR? >>US.
00:26:00.89\00:26:04.06
>>FOR YOU, FOR ME, HE WAS CUT
OFF FROM THE LAND OF THE LIVING.
00:26:04.09\00:26:08.36
JESUS LAID DOWN HIS LIFE.
IN HIS PRIME HE DIED FOR US.
