THE BOOK OF ROMANS (CHAPTER 3)

 

THE BOOK OF ROMANS SHOWS US HOW TO LIVE OUR LIFE ACCORDING TO GOD'S PURPOSE. IT IS A DOCTRINAL BOOK AND EVERY CHRISTIAN SHOULD TAKE ITS COUNSEL AND APPLY IT TO EVERYDAY LIFE.

Romans 3:1 What advantage then hath the Jew (ISRAELITE)? or what profit is there of circumcision?

3:2 Much every way: chiefly, because that unto them were committed the oracles of God (THE PROMISES OF GOD).

ACCORDING TO EVERY WAY THEY WERE ENTRUSTED WITH GOD'S PROMISES.

3:3 For what if some did not believe? shall their unbelief make the faith of God without effect?

3:4 God forbid: yea, let God be true, but every man a liar; as it is written, "That Thou mightest be justified in Thy sayings, and mightest overcome when Thou art judged."

QUOTED PSALMS 62:9.

IF YOU DO THINGS HIS WAY.

GOD IS FAIR AND JUST.

3:5 But if our unrighteousness commend the righteousness of God, what shall we say? Is God unrighteous Who taketh vengeance? (I speak as a man).

GOD CHASTISES BELIEVERS AS WELL AS UNBELIEVERS.

3:6 God forbid: for then how shall God judge the world?

GOD DISCIPLINES.

3:7 For if the truth of God hath more abounded through my lie (SIN) unto His glory; why yet am I also judged as a sinner?

3:8 And not rather, (as we be slanderously reported, and as some affirm that we say,) "Let us do evil, that good may come?" whose damnation is just.

IN OTHER WORDS, SOME PEOPLE THINK THAT AS LONG AS THEY ARE SAVED THEY DON'T HAVE TO ANSWER IF THEY SIN.

A BIG MISTAKE! WE ALL HAVE TO ANSWER FOR SINS WE HAVEN'T REPENTED OF.

3:9 What then? are we better than they? No, in no wise: for we have before proved (BEFORE CONVICTED) both Jews and Gentiles, that they are all under sin;

3:10 As it is written, "there is none righteous, no, not one:

THE QUOTATION (10-18) IS FROM SEVERAL PASSES OF O.T. ALL REFER TO THE SAME SUBJECT. VERSES 10-12 (GENERAL) ARE FROM ECC. 7:20, PSALMS 14:2-3, 53:2-3 (VERSES 3-4); VERSES 13-18 ARE FROM PSALMS 5:9-10, 140:3, 10:7, ISAIAH 59:7-8, PSALMS 36:1-2. VERIFICATION OF THESE REFS, FROM THE STANDPOINT OF PAUL'S ARGUMENT, THROWS MUCH LIGHT UPON THE O.T. PASSES IN WHICH THEY OCCUR.

3:11 There is none that understandeth, there in none that seeketh after God.

TO SEE AFTER GOD YOU MUST SEARCH OUT THE ORIGIN. HOW? YOU MUST GO TO THE 1ST EARTH AGE AND FIND OUT THE REASON WHY WE ARE HERE.

WE MUST UNDERSTAND HIS ORACLES THROUGH HIS WORD.

3:12 They are all gone out of the way, they are together become unprofitable; there is none that doeth good, no, not one.

3:13 Their throat is an open sepulchre (GRAVE); with their tongues they have used deceit; the poison of asps is under their lips:

THIS REFERS TO THE BOASTERS AND WORKERS OF INIQUITY OF VERSE 5.

3:14 Whose mouth is full of cursing and bitterness:

3:15 Their feet are swift to shed blood:

THE ONES WHO DISGRACE GOD ARE FAKES. ANYONE WHO FOLLOWS THEM IS ALSO A FAKE.

3:16 Destruction and misery are in their ways:

THEY BRING DESTRUCTION AND MISERY UPON THEMSELVES AND OTHERS.

3:17 And the way of peace have they not known:

PEACE IS CHRIST. HE IS THE PRINCE OF PEACE.

3:18 There is no fear (REVERENCE OR FEAR IN THE HEBREW) of God before their eyes."

THE ONES WITH NO FAITH DO NOT FEAR OR LOVE GOD.

3:19 Now we know that what things soever the law saith, it saith to them who are under the law: that every mouth may be stopped, and all the world may become guilty before God.

IN OTHER WORDS, THE LAW KEEPS US OUT OF TROUBLE AND REMINDS US OF OUR SINS.

3:20 Therefore by the deeds of the law there shall no flesh be justified in His sight: for by the law is the knowledge of sin.

THE LAW IS OUR SCHOOL MASTER. IT POINTS OUT OUR SINS.

3:21 But now the righteousness of God without the law is manifested, being witnessed by the law and the prophets;

IT BRINGS US TO FORGIVENESS AND WE HAVE A PEACE OF MIND.

3:22 Even the righteousness of God which is by faith of Jesus Christ unto all and upon all them that believe: for there is no difference:

HE DOES NOT LEAVE ANYONE OUT....SALVATION IS FOR ALL.

3:23 For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God;

3:24 Being justified freely by His grace through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus:

3:25 Whom God hath set forth to be a propitiation (THE MERCY SEAT=GOD'S MERCY) through faith in His blood, to declare His righteousness for the REMISSION OF SINS THAT ARE PAST, through the forbearance of God;

HE SAYS PAST SINS NOT FUTURE.

WE WILL ALL FALL SHORT IN THE FUTURE. WE CANNOT REPENT FOR FUTURE SINS, ONLY FOR PAST. WHAT THIS MEAN? IT MEANS WE WILL HAVE TO REPENT EVERY TIME WE SIN.

THE MERCY SEAT WAS ALWAYS THERE FROM THE 1ST EARTH AGE.

3:26 To declare, I say, at this time His righteousness: that He might be just, and the justifier of him which believeth in Jesus.

3:27 Where is boasting then? It is excluded. By what law? or works? Nay: but by the law of faith.

HE RIPPED THAT VEIL FROM TOP TO BOTTOM SO WE CAN HAVE ACCESS TO THE FATHER THROUGH THE SON. BUT...FIRST YOU HAVE TO HAVE FAITH.

3:28 Therefore we conclude that a man is justified by faith without (APART) the deeds of the law.

IN OTHER WORDS, THE LAW DOES NOT GIVE US SALVATION BUT WE STILL HAVE TO OBEY THE LAW. A SIN IS A TRANSGRESSION OF THE LAW AND WE WILL SIN IN OUR LIFETIME. SALVATION DOES NOT GIVE US AN EXCUSE TO SIN.

A SIN IS NOT ERASED FROM THE BOOKS UNLESS WE REPENT.

3:29 Is He the God of the Jews (ISRAELITES) only? Is He not also of the Gentiles? Yes, of the Gentiles also:

HE HAS CREATED ALL PEOPLE.

3:30 Seeing it is one God, Which shall justify the circumcision by faith, and uncircumcision through faith.

HE JUSTIFIES AN ISRAELITE AND A GENTILE IF THEY BELIEVE.

3:31 Do we then make void the law through faith? God forbid: yea, we establish the law.

OUR SALVATION COMES APART FROM THE LAW BUT THE LAW REMINDS US OF OUR SINS.

GOD'S WISDOM BRINGS US ETERNAL LIFE AND SUCCESS (PROVERBS 1:7).

GOD BLESS

THE BOOK OF ROMANS (CHAPTER 2)

 

                              THE BOOK OF ROMANS IS THE ABC'S OF THE GOSPEL.

The prominent feature of the epistle is the long doctrinal portion from 1:16 to 8:39. This shows that doctrinal instruction is the important part and dominates the whole. It reveals what God has done with "sins" and with "sin"; and how the saved sinner, taken out of the deepest degradation, is justified by faith, and united to Christ in His death, burial, and life. It teaches him that though his "old Adam" nature continues with him till the end, in ever-present hostility to God, yet that those in Christ there is no judgment (after repentance) and, consequently, no separation "from the love of God which is in Christ Jesus our Lord."

Being saved is not a ticket to go on sinning. If you continue to sin, you are no longer in Christ unless you repent. Everyone will be chastised by God if they continue to sin after salvation and do not repent.

Romans 2:1 Therefore thou art inexcusable, O man (NO GENDER), whosoever thou art that judgest: for wherein thou judgest another, thou condemnest thyself; for thou that judgest doest the same things.

IT'S INEXCUSABLE TO JUDGE SOMEONE WHEN YOU ARE A SINNER YOURSELF.

2:2 But we are sure that the judgment of God is according to truth against them which commit such things.

GOD DOES NOT LIKE IT WHEN SOMEONE IS TRYING TO BE ABOVE GOD AND JUDGE OTHERS. HE IS THE ONLY ONE WHO JUDGES BECAUSE HE IS THE ONLY ONE WHO CAN SEE YOUR HEART.

2:3 And thinkest thou this, O man, that judgest them which do such things, and doest the same, that thou shalt escape the judgment of God?

EVERYONE IS GOING TO ANSWER FOR THEIR OWN SINS. THERE IS NO ONE WHO GETS EXTRA POINTS BY POINTING OUT SOMEONE ELSE'S FAULTS.

2:4 Or despisest thou the riches of his goodness and forbearance and longsuffering; not knowing that the goodness of God leadeth thee to repentance?

GOD HAS A LOT OF PATIENCE (NUMBERS 14:18, EXODUS 34:6, NEHEMIAH 9:16-17).

HE WANTS YOU TO REPENT WHEN YOU GO ASTRAY FROM HIM.

2:5 But after thy hardness and impenitent (UNREPENTANCE) heart treasurest up unto thyself wrath against the day of wrath and revelation of the righteous judgment of God;

THE 7 VIALS OF REVELATION WILL BE POURED UPON THE UNGODLY.

UNREPENTANT CHRISTIANS ARE ALSO INCLUDED IN THE 7 VIALS.

2:6 Who will render to every man according to his deeds: 

GOD JUDGES YOU BY YOUR OWN ACTIONS...YOUR OWN DEEDS SET YOUR SENTENCE.

2:7 To them who by patient continuance in well doing seek for glory and honor and immortality, eternal life:

YOU FOLLOW GOD'S RULES PATIENTLY.

2:8 But unto them that are contentious, and do not obey the truth, but obey unrighteousness, indignation and wrath,

THIS INCLUDES CHRISTIANS WHO HAVE GONE AWAY FROM GOD. EVERY TIME YOU SIN AND DON'T REPENT YOU WILL BE CHASTISED.

2:9 Tribulation and anguish, upon every soul of man that doeth evil, of the Jew (ISRAEL IN THE GREEK) first, and also of the Gentile;

THERE IS NO DIFFERENCE BETWEEN AN ISRAELITE AND A GENTILE.

GOD IS NOT A RESPECTER OF PERSONS. EVERYONE IS TREATED THE SAME.

2:10 But glory, honor, and peace, to every man that worketh good, to the Jew first, and also to the Gentile:

2:11 For there is no respect of persons with God.

EVERYONE IS JUDGED BY THEIR DEEDS EVEN IF YOU ARE A CHRISTIAN.

2:12 For as many as have sinned without law shall also perish without law: and as many as have sinned in the law shall be judged by the law;

THE LAW DOES NOT SAVE YOU BUT IT KEEPS YOU OUT OF TROUBLE.

2:13 (For not the hearers of the law are just before God, but the doers of the law shall be justified.

IN OTHER WORDS, YOU ARE JUDGED BY YOUR WORKS NOT BY GOING TO CHURCH.

2:14 For when the Gentiles, which have not the law, do by nature the things contained in the law, these, having not the law, are a law unto themselves:

NATURE ITSELF DOCUMENTS WHAT IS WRONG.

2:15 Which shew the work of the law written in their hearts, their conscience also bearing witness, and their thoughts the mean while accusing or else excusing one another;)

GOD'S LAW IS WRITTEN TO EVERYONE'S MIND.

2:16 In the day when God shall judge the secrets of men by Jesus Christ according to my gospel.

2:17 Behold, thou art called a Jew (ISRAELITE) and restest in the law (BUT IF YOU REST UPON GOD'S LAW IN THE GREEK), and makest thy boast of God.

2:18 And knowest His will, and approvest the things that are more excellent, being instructed out of the law;

YOU KNOW WHAT GOD EXPECTS.

2:19 And art confident that thou thyself art a guide of the blind, a light of them which are in darkness,

2:20 An instructor of the foolish, a teacher of babes, which hast the form (MORPH) of knowledge and of the truth in the law.

IN OTHER WORDS, YOU CONSIDER YOURSELF A TEACHER OR A LEADER BUT YOU CAN'T EVEN LEAD YOURSELF. 

YOU ARE PRETENDING TO BE A TEACHER.

2:21 Thou therefore which teachest another teachest thou not thyself? thou that preachest a man should not steal, dost thou steal?

YOU ARE GOING TO HURT PEOPLE IF YOU ARE A BABE IN THE WORD. 

EDUCATE YOURSELF FIRST BEFORE YOU TEACH OTHERS.

DO NOT HOLD THE TRUTH FROM THEM.

2:22 Thou that sayest a man should not commit adultery, dost thou commit adultery? thou that abhorest idols, dost thou commit sacrilege (TO ROB THE TEMPLE BY NOT TEACHING THE TRUTH).

IF YOU TEACH YOUR OWN THINGS AND SAY IT'S FROM GOD YOU ARE ROBBING THE TEMPLE SPIRITUALLY.

2:23 Thou that makest thy boast of the law, through breaking the law dishonorest thou God?

IF YOU BRAKE THE LAW DO YOU DISHONOR GOD?

2:24 "For the name of God is blasphemed among the Gentiles through you," as it is written.

YOU ARE NO BETTER THAN A GENTILE IF YOU BRAKE THE LAW.

2:25 For circumcision verily profiteth, if thou keep the law: but if thou be a breaker of the law, thy circumcision is made uncircumcision.

2:26 Therefore if the uncircumcision keep the righteousness of the law, shall not this uncircumcision be counted for circumcision?

2:27 And shall not uncircumcision which is by nature, if it fulfil the law, judge thee, who by the letter and circumcision dost transgress the law?

THEY BRING GOD'S WRATH ON THEM WHEN THEY BREAK NATURE. GOD CREATED NATURE AND IT LET'S YOU KNOW WHEN YOU MESS UP.

2:28 For he is not a Jew, which is one outwardly; neither is that circumcision, which is outward in the flesh:

2:29 But he is a Jew (ISRAELITE), which is one inwardly; and circumcision is that of the heart, in the spirit, and not in the letter; whose praise is not of men, but of God.

CIRCUMCISION IS NOT OF THE FLESH ANYMORE BUT OF THE HEART.

DO NOT JUDGE MEN. LEAVE JUDGMENT TO GOD.

GOD BLESS

THE BOOK OF ROMANS (CHAPTER 1)

 

                                            THE BOOK OF ROMANS (CHAPTER 1).

The book of Romans is the ABCs of the gospel. It's all about "God's doctrine and Instruction".

The great subject is the revelation of God's wrath against sin, and of the ground upon which alone the sinner can stand in righteousness before Him. Jew and Gentile alike fall short of the standard of God's glory. All alike sinners, shut up under sin, and needing a Divine righteousness.

This book tells you how to walk in your faith and live a Christian life.

Romans 1:1 PAUL, a servant of Jesus Christ, called to be an apostle (ONE SENT FORTH IN THE GREEK), separated (SET APART= APHORIZO IN THE GREEK. NOTE THE THREE STAGES IN PAUL'S "SEPARATION" FOR GOD'S PURPOSE: BIRTH (GAL. 1:15-16); CONVERSION (ACTS 9:15); WORK (ACTS 13:2) unto the gospel of God (THE GOSPEL OF THE GRACE OF GOD (ACTS 20:24, NOT THE GOSPEL OF THE KINGDOM),

1:2 (Which He had promised afore by His prophets in the holy scriptures,)

1:3 Concerning His Son Jesus Christ our Lord, Which was made of the seed of David according to the flesh,

HE WAS OF DAVID'S LINE, BUT ENDING SPECIFICALLY IN MARY, WHO WAS HERE THE "SEED" OF DAVID. AND CHRIST WAS THE "SEED" OF THE WOMAN (GEN.3:15, ISAIAH 7:14, MATT. 1:23).

MAKE A NOTE OF ISAIAH 53.

1:4 And declared to be the Son of God with power, according to the spirit of holiness, by the resurrection from the dead:

HIS DIVINE SPIRITUAL NATURE IN RESURRECTION IS HERE SET IN CONTRAST WITH HIS HUMAN FLESH AS THE SEED OF DAVID.

1:5 By Whom we have received grace and apostleship, for obedience to the faith, among all nations, for His name:

ALL GIFTS OF GOD COME FROM HIM.

1:6 Among whom are ye also the called of Jesus Christ:

1:7 To all that be in Rome, beloved of God, called to be saints: Grace to you and peace from God our Father, and the Lord Jesus Christ.

PAUL NEVER BEEN IN ROME BUT HE WANTED TO GO.

1:8 First, I thank my God through Jesus Christ for you all, that your faith is spoken of throughout the whole world (KOSMOS IN THE GREEK=THE NATURAL EARTH AS GOD CREATED).

1:9 For God is my witness, Whom I serve with my spirit in the gospel of His Son, that without ceasing I make mention of you always in my prayers,

1:10 Making request, if by any means now at length I might have a prosperous journey by the will of God to come unto you,

HIS WISH WAS TO GO TO ROME.

1:11 For I long to see you, that I may impart unto you some spiritual gift, to the end ye may be established;

FOR THE CHURCH TO BE ESTABLISHED THERE.

1:12 That is, that I may be comforted together with you by the mutual faith both of you and me.

WE CAN HELP EACH OTHER ON THAT RESPECT.

1:13 Now I would not have you ignorant, brethren, that oftentimes I purposed to come unto you, (but was let hitherto=SOMETHING ALWAYS GOT IN THE WAY) that I might have some fruit among you also, even as among other Gentiles.

1:14 I am debtor both to the Greeks, and to the Barbarians; both to the wise, and to the unwise.

PAUL TAUGHT IN ALL THREE LEVELS (ACTS 9) AND HE SPOKE ROMAN, HEBREW, GREEK.

1:15 So, as much as in me is, I am ready to preach the gospel to you that are at Rome also.

1:16 For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ (I COUNT IT MY HIGHEST HONOR AND GLORY TO PROCLAIM THE GOSPEL): for it is the power of God unto salvation to everyone that believeth; to the Jew (ISRAEL IN THE GREEK) first, and also to the Greek.

1:17 For therein is the righteousness of God revealed from faith to faith: as it is written "The just shall live by faith"(QUOTED FROM HAB. 2:4).

FAITH IS A POWERFUL THING. GOD'S RIGHTEOUSNESS IS REVEALED ON THE GROUND OF FAITH (FAITH-PRINCIPLE), AS THE ABSOLUTE CONDITION OF SALVATION, AND IS OPERATIVE ONLY FOR THOSE WHO BELIEVE.

1:18 For the wrath of God is revealed (IN THE GOSPEL NOT ONLY IS GOD'S SALVATION REVEALED, BUT GOD'S WRATH ALSO, AND BOTH ARE THE REVELATION OF GOD'S RIGHTEOUSNESS) from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who hold the truth in unrighteousness;

HE KNOWS HOW TO HANDLE THE ONES WHO MOCK HIS WORD.

1:19 Because that which may be known of God is manifest in them; for God hath shewed it unto them.

HE HAS SHOWN IT TO THEM THROUGH NATURE.

IN OTHER WORDS, YOU KNOW RIGHT FROM WRONG BY NATURE ITSELF.

1:20 For the invisible things of Him from the creation of the world are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even His eternal power and Godhead; so that they are without excuse:

YOU LEARN FROM GOD'S CREATION.

1:21 Because that when they knew God, they glorified Him not as God, neither were thankful; but became vain in their imaginations (VOID OF GOD'S THOUGHT), and their foolish heart was darkened (SATAN IS THE PRINCE OF DARKNESS).

1:22 Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools,

1:23 And changed the glory of the uncorruptible God into an image made like to corruptible man, and to birds, and four footed beasts, and creeping things.

THE IMAGE WAS SHAPED AS A GOD AND THEY STARTED TO WORSHIP THE CREATION INSTEAD OF THE CREATOR.

1:24 Wherefore God also gave them up to uncleanness through the lusts of their own hearts, to dishonor their own bodies between themselves:

CEASING TO KNOW GOD RESULTS IN IDOLATRY, AND IDOLATRY ENDS IN "FILTHINESS OF THE FLESH AND SPIRIT" (II COR. 7:1).

1:25 Who changed the truth of God into a lie, and worshipped and served the creature more than the Creator, Who is blessed forever. Amen.

THEY LOVE SATAN'S WAYS.

1:26 For this cause God gave them up unto vile affections: for even their women did change the natural use into that which is against nature:

HOMOSEXUALITY IS AGAINST NATURE.

1:27 And likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of the woman, burned in their lust one toward another; men with men working that which is unseemly, and receiving in themselves that recompence of their error which was meet.

BY DOING THIS YOU SEPARATE YOURSELF FROM GOD.

HOMOSEXUALITY IS AN ABOMINATION TO THE LORD (LEV. 20:13, 18:22).

1:28 And even as they did not like to retain God in their knowledge, God gave them over to a reprobate mind, to do those things which are not convenient:

AS THEY REJECTED GOD, GOD REJECTED THEM.

1:29 Being filled with all unrighteousness, fornication, wickedness, covetousness, maliciousness; full of envy, murder, debate, deceit, malignity; whisperers,

1:30 Backbiters, haters of God, despiteful, proud, boasters, inventors of evil things, disobedient to parents,

1:31 Without understanding (THEY DON'T WANT TO UNDERSTAND), covenant breakers, without natural affection, implacable, unmerciful:

GOD WILL NOT BLESS A COUNTRY THAT FOLLOWS ABOMINATIONS.

1:32 Who knowing the judgment of God, that they which commit such things are worthy of death, not only do the same, but have pleasure in them that do them.

THE ONES WHO COMMIT THESE ABOMINATIONS WILL NOT HAVE ETERNAL LIFE.

GOD BLESS

THE BOOK OF DANIEL (CHAPTER TWELVE)

 

IN TODAYS STUDY WE ARE GOING TO CONCLUDE THE BOOK OF DANIEL.

THE SUBJECT OF THIS CHAPTER IS TRIBULATION AND THE MILLENNIUM SANCTUARY.

Daniel 12:1 And at that time (THE TIME OF TRIBULATION. NOTE THE THREE SUBJECTS THUS CONNECTED WITH :THE TIME OF THE END") Michael (MICHAEL IS THE ANGEL OF OUR PEOPLE) stand up, the great prince which standeth for the children of thy People: and there shall be a time of trouble (JACOB'S TROUBLE), such as never was since there was a nation even to that same time: and at that time thy People shall be delivered, everyone that shall be found written in the book.

GOD'S ELECT WILL BE DELIVERED UP TO SATAN'S HEADQUARTERS.

GOD WIL SPEAK THROUGH HIS ELECT AND HIS MESSAGE WILL BE HEARD THROUGHOUT THE WORLD.

12:2  And many of them that sleep in the dust of the earth shall awake, some to everlasting life, and some to shame and everlasting contempt.

THE SUBJECT HERE IS THE ONES THAT HAVE DIED DURING THAT TRIBULATION, NOT THE ONES WHO HAVE PASSED ON.

IT HAS A DUAL MEANING: THERE ARE SOME THAT FOLLOWED THE TRUTH AND OTHERS THAT FOLLOWED FALSE TEACHERS.

THE ONES WHO WERE MISLED WILL BE ASHAMED TO FACE THE TRUE MESSIAH WHEN HE RETURNS (REV. 6:15-17). THEY WILL LEARN IN THE MILLENNIUM BUT THEY WILL BE CHASTISED. THEY WILL HAVE TO BE TESTED AGAIN BY SATAN WHEN HE IS RELEASED FOR A SHORT TIME (REV. 20). 

THE ONES WHO WERE NOT MISLED WILL BE PRIESTS WITH CHRIST IN THE MILLENNIUM. THEY OVERCAME SATAN'S DECEPTION.

12:3  And they that be wise shall shine as the brightness of the firmament; and they that turn many to righteousness as the stars forever and ever.

THE ONES, GOD'S ELECT WILL TEACH AND THEY WILL TURN MANY RIGHT WITH GOD AGAIN.

12:4  But thou, O Daniel, shut up the words, and seal the book, even to the time of the end: many shall run to and fro (APOSTATIZE IN THE HEB), and knowledge shall be increased.

IN OTHER WORDS, SEAL THE BOOK DANIEL (BECAUSE IT WAS NOT MEANT FOR HIS TIME). MANY WILL APOSTATIZE, FALL INTO SATAN'S LIES.

12:5  Then I Daniel looked, and, behold, there stood other two, the one on his side of the bank of the river, and the other on that side of the bank of the river (TIGRIS=BETWEEN IRAN AND IRAQ).

12:6  And one said to the man clothed in linen, which was upon the waters of the river, 'How long shall it be to the end of these wonders?

HOW LONG THOSE MARVELOUS WORKS LAST ? HOW LONG SATAN WILL HAVE ?

12:7  And I heard the man clothed in linen, which was upon the waters (STAND UPON THE WATERS) of the river, when he held up his right hand and his left hand unto heaven, and sware by Him That liveth forever that it shall be a time, times, and a half; and when he shall accomplished to scatter the power of the holy people, all these things shall be finished.

HE SAID THAT SATAN WILL BE HERE 3 1/2 YEARS. HOWEVER, CHRIST SHORTENED THAT TIME TO 5 MONTHS FOR THE ELECT'S SAKE (MARK 13:20, REV. 9:10-11).

WHY CHRIST DID THAT? BECAUSE SATAN IS SUPERNATURAL AND THERE WOULD BE A POSIBILITY THAT EVEN THE ELECT COULD BE DECEIVED IF HE WAS HERE 3 1/2 YEARS.

AFTER THAT HE WILL SMASH THEIR HEADS, OR SCATTER IN A SMASHING WAY.

12:8 And I heard, but I understood not: then said I, O MY Lord, what shall be the end of these things?'

12:9  And he said, 'Go thy way, Daniel: for the words are closed up and sealed till the time of the end.

THE WORDS WERE SEALED FOR DANIEL; BUT UNSEALED FOR US.

12:10  Many shall be purified, and made white, and tried; but the wicked shall do wickedly: and none of the wicked shall understand; but the wise shall understand.

THE ONES THAT GOD'S ELECT TEACH IN THE MILLENNIUM WILL BE MADE PURE AND WHITE.

12:11  And from the time that the daily sacrifice shall be taken away (JESUS WAS CRUCIFIED IN 27 A.D.), and the abomination that maketh desolate (DESOLATOR IN THE HEB.=AN ENTITY=SATAN) set up, there shall be a thousand two hundred and ninety days.

12:12 Blessed is he that waiteth, and cometh to the thousand and three hundred and five and thirty days.

ISRAEL BECAME A NATION  MAY 14, 1948. THIS IS THE LAST GENERATION.

12:13  But go thou thy way till the end be: for thou shalt rest, and stand in thy lot at the end of the days.' "

THE HEBREW ACCENT SUGGESTS THE RENDERING: "BLESSED IS HE THAT EXPECTETH AND SHALL REACH (THE GOAL: HE SHALL REACH) TODAY, 1335."

DANIEL WILL BE WITH MICHAEL AND THE ANGELS AT THAT TIME.

GOD BLESS

THE TIMES, AND NUMBERED DAYS OF DANIEL (BY DR. BULLINGER).

There are five specific periods of "time" and "days" mentioned in the book of Daniel (7:25; 8:14; 12:7, 11, 12). In addition to these five, we have the great period of the "seventy sevens" (or weeks) of years in chapter nine.

Sixty-nine of these were completed at the "cutting off" of the Messiah; the last or "seventieth seven" is yet to come. All the other five periods of time in the book are to be referred to, and are standardized, so to speak, by this last "seven".

"The prince that shall come" (Satan=Antichrist) "will make a covenant with many for one week" (seven years, 9:27).

After 3 1/2 years, he breaks his covenant (or league, 11:23), the daily sacrifice is "taken away", the "abomination" set up, and "Jacob's trouble" (Jer. 30:7) commences and continues for the remainder of the "seven": viz. for the 1,260 days or 3 1/2 years.

In 8:14 it is stated, "then shall the Sanctuary be cleansed." When this will happen?  "From the time (that) the daily (sacrifice) shall be taken away (there shall be a thousand, two hundred and ninety days." Daniel 12:11.

"Blessed is he that waiteth (=steadfast) and cometh to the thousand, three hundred and five and thirty days." Daniel 12:12.

The time of verses 11 & 12,are extended and prolonged beyond the close of 1,260 days by two significant periods of days, viz. 30 days and 75 days, respectively.

The first of these, 1,290 days is 1,260 + 30. And the 30 days here maybe taken as an intercalary month of 30 days of "cleansing" following directly after the destruction of the false Messiah, and the break up of his confederacy. These 30 days may possibly be the period allotted for the construction of the new and glorious "Sanctuary" of Ezekiel 40-43, which is to be erected after the destruction and removal of the Jewish temple (The Dome on the Rock).

With regard to the 1,335 days of 12:12: This is 1,260 days with an excess of 75 days. This again being an excess of 45 days beyond the 1.290 of 12:11. 1,335 is, therefore, 1,260 + 30 +45.

If the 30 days are occupied with the "cleansing", for example with the "justifying" a new and glorious "Sanctuary", then it maybe that the further 45 days, over and above the 1.290, will cover the preparation time for the fulfilment of the 45th psalm, in order that the nuptials of the king maybe celebrated as described in such wonderful and minute detail in that psalm.

The time of Daniel 12:1 is a time of trouble (Jacob's trouble), and it will be closed be a time or year of acutest tribulation. 

NOTE: CHRIST HAS SHORTENED THE TIME TO FIVE MONTHS FOR THE ELECT'S SAKE (MARK 13:20, REV. 9:10-11).

GOD BLESS

THE BOOK OF DANIEL (CHAPTER ELEVEN---PART TWO)

 

   PART TWO OF DANIEL CHAPTER 11 HAS TO DO WITH THE END GENERATION.

PART ONE HAD TO DO WITH EVENTS THAT HAVE ALREADY PASSED.

Daniel 11:21  And in his estate shall stand up a vile person (SATAN), to whom they shall not give the honor of the kingdom: but he shall come in peaceably, and obtain the kingdom by flatteries.

HERE BEGINS THE PORTION OF THIS PROPHECY WHICH IS STILL FUTURE TO US, "THE LATTER DAYS"OF 10:14.

THE VILE PERSON IS SATAN PLAYING THE ROLE OF CHRIST (ANTICHRIST=INSTEAD OF CHRIST IN THE GREEK).

HE IS COMING PEACEFULLY (NO WAR) AND HE WILL WIN THE HEART OF MANY BY FLATTERIES (TELLING THEM HOW WONDERFUL THEY ARE).

11:22  And with the arms of a flood (FLOOD OF DECEPTION=REV. 12:15) shall they be overflown from before him, and shall be broken; yea, also the prince of the covenant (COMMUNION).

11:23  And after the league made with him he shall work deceitfully: for he shall come up, and shall become strong with a small people (THE KENITES=HIS OFFSPRING).

11:24  He shall enter peaceably even upon the fattest places of the province; and he shall do that which his fathers have not done, nor his fathers' fathers; he shall scatter among them the prey, and spoil, and riches: yea, and he shall forecast his devices against the strongholds, even for a time.

HE WILL DEVICE PLOTS USING SUPERNATURAL MIRACLES TO DECEIVE THE WORLD.

SATAN IS SUPERNATURAL, AND HE WILL USE ANYTHING HE CAN TO GET YOU INTO HIS SIDE.

11:25  And he shall stir up his power and his courage against the king of the south with a great army; and the king of the south shall be stirred up to battle with a very great and mighty army; but he shall not stand: for they (THE KENITES) shall forecast devices against him.

THIS IS JUST BEFORE SATAN IS HERE DEFACTO.

THE KING OF THE SOUTH WON'T MAKE A STAND. THEY WON'T COME INTO ANY CONCLUSION. IT WON'T BE (SATAN'S SYSTEM) COMPLETELY SUCCESFUL UNTIL SATAN COMES HIMSELF TO COMPLETE THAT SYSTEM (ONE WORLD SYSTEM).

11:26  Yea, they that feed of the portion of his meat shall destroy him, and his army shall over flow: and many shall fall down slain.

THE FIGHTNING TAKES PLACE FROM WITHIN AND WITHOUT (IN THE HEBREW).

WE CAN SEE THIS IN THE UNITED NATIONS; WE ARE ALL ONE BUT WE ARE ENEMIES.

11:27  And both these kings' hearts shall be to do mischief, and they shall speak lies at one table; but it shall not prosper: for yet the end shall be at the time appointed (IT WAS NOT MEANT FOR DANIEL'S TIME).

11:28  Then shall he return into his land with great riches; and his heart shall be against the holy covenant (THE PEOPLE THAT HAVE THE SEAL OF GOD IN THEIR FOREHEAD = GOD'S ELECT); and he shall do exploits (ACT EFFECTIVELY, OR ACCOMPLISH THE PURPOSEOF HIS HEART), and return to his own land.

11:29  At the time appointed he shall return, and come toward the south; but it shall not be as the former, or as the latter (IT WILL BE SOMETHING DIFFERENT).

11:30  For the ships of Chittim (THE BRUISERS= GOD'S ELECT) shall come against him: therefore he shall be grieved, and return, and have indignation against the holy covenant (HE WILL BE ANGRY WITH GOD'S ELECT): so shall he do; he shall even return, and have intelligence (FIX HIS ATENTION ON) with them that forsake the holy covenant.

GOD'S ELECT WILL GIVE HIM MUCH TROUBLE.

11:31  And arms shall stand on his part (THE FALSE ONE), and they shall pollute the sanctuary of strength, and shall take away the daily sacrifice (CHRIST WAS OUR SACRIFICE), and they shall place the abomination that maketh desolate (THE DESOLATOR WILL REPLACE CHRIST, THE DAILY SACRIFICE).

HE WILL TAKE OVER THE CHURCH.

MAKE A NOTE OF MARK 13.

11:32  And such as do wickedly against the covenant shall he corrupt with flatteries (CORRUPT BY NICE RELIGIOUS WORDS):  but the people that do know their God shall be strong, and do exploits.

GOD'S ELECT ARE THE ONLY ONES WHO KNOW GOD (NOT ALL CHRISTIANS DO) AND WILL EFFECTUALLY DO GOD'S WORK.

11:33  And they that understand among the people shall instruct many (GOD WILL SPEAK THROUGH GOD'S ELECT LIKE IT WAS ON PENTECOST DAY. EVERYONE WILL HEAR GOD'S MESSAGE IN THEIR OWN LANGUAGE AND DIALECT; ACTS 2, MARK 13:11): yet they shall fall by the sword (WEAK IN THE HEBREW, NOT DEATH), and by flame, by captivity (DECEPTION), and by spoil, many days.

GOD'S ELECT WILLBE DELIVERED UP TO SATAN'S 'COURT'. HE IS GOING TO TRY TO CONVERT YOU AT THAT TIME. THIS IS THE TIME THAT GOD WILL SPEAK THROUGH YOU. (MARK 13:9).

11:34  Now when they shall fall (WAIVER, LITTLE WEAK), they shall be holpen with a little help (SHALL OBTAIN BUT LITTLE HELP): but many shall cleave to them with flatteries (TRY TO FOLLOW THEM. SOME WILL COME OUT OF DECEPTION AT THAT TIME).

11:35  And some of them of understanding shall fall, to try (REFINE) them, and to purge (PURIFY), and to make them white, even to the time of the end: because it is yet for a time appointed.

11:36  And the king (SATAN) shall do according to his will; and he shall exalt himself, and magnify himself above every GOD, and shall speak marvelous things against the GOD of gods, and shall prosper till the indignation be accomplished: for that that is determined shall be done.

THIS IS QUOTED IN II THESS. 2:3-4.

HE ALWAYS WANTED TO BE GOD.

HE WILL PLAY THE ROLE OF CHRIST AND WILL BE THE HEAD OF THE CHURCH AND ALSO OF OTHER RELIGIONS, UNTIL THE TRUE CHRIST RETURNS AND PUTS A STOP TO THIS.

11:37  Neither shall he regard the God of his fathers (HE ALWAYS WANTED TO BE GOD), nor the desire of women (NO REGARD FOR THE VIRGIN BRIDE OF CHRIST), nor regard any GOD (ELOAH=WHO IS TO BE WORSHIPPED. ELOAH IS GOD IN CONNECTION WITH HIS WILL RATHER THAN HIS POWER): for he shall magnify himself above all.

11:38 But in his estate shall he honor the God of forces (GOD OF FORTRESSES): and a god whom his fathers knew not shall he honor with gold, and silver, and with precious stones, and pleasant things (THINGS DESIRED IN THE HEBREW).

IN SECRET HE IS SUPERSTITIOUS, THOUGH IN PUBLIC HE EXALTS HIMSELF ABOVE ALL GODS.

11:39  Thus shall he do in the most strongholds with a strange god, whom he shall acknowledge and increase with glory: and he shall cause them to rule over many, and shall divide the land for gain (PRICE).

ALL THOSE WHO ACKNOWLEDGE HIM HE WILL MOVE IN GLORY.

11:40  And at the time of the end shall the king of the south push at him: and the king of the north shall come against him like a whirlwind, with chariots, and with horsemen, and with many ships; and he shall enter into the countries, and shall overflow and pass over.

HIS DECEPTION, THE ONE WORLD SYSTEM WILL TAKE OVER ANY GOVERNMENT, FOR THEY WILL FLOW UNTO HIM. ANY RESISTANCE WILL BE PUSHED ASIDE BY THE PEOPLE THEMSELVES. WHY? BECAUSE THEY BELIEVE HE IS JESUS. THEY THINK THEY ARE DOING RIGHT.

11:41  He shall enter also into the glorious land (MOUNT ZION), and many countries shall be overthrown: but these shall escape out of his hand, even Edom (THE TRUE CHRISTIANS OF RUSSIA), and Moab, and the chief of the children of Ammon (LOT'S OFFSPRING).

THE TRUE CHRISTIANS OF RUSSIA WON'T BE DECEIVED.

11:42  He shall stretch forth his hand also upon the countries: and the land of Egypt shall not escape.

SATAN'S DECEPTION WILL COVER THE WHOLE WORLD.

11:43  But he shall have power over the treasures of gold and of silver, and over all the precious things of Egypt: and the Libyans and the Ethiopians (AFRICA) shall be at his steps.

HE CONQUERS WITH WORDLY ABILITY.

11:44  But tidings out of the east (THE BRUISERS= GOD'S ELECT) and out of the north shall trouble him: therefore he shall go forth with great fury to destroy, and utterly to make away many.

HE WILL TRY TO DESTROY THE ELECT BY DECEIVING THEM.  HE WILL EVENTUALLY KILL TWO OF GOD'S ELECT, THE TWO WITNESSES (REV. 11). THREE AND A HALF DAYS AFTER THAT CHRIST RETURNS.

11:45  And he shall plant the tabernacles of his palace between the seas in the glorious mountain (MOUNT ZION); yet he shall come to his end, and none shall help him.

HE WILL BE LOCKED IN THE PIT FOR A THOUSAND YEARS WHEN CHRIST RETURNS (REV. 20). AFTER THE THOUSAND YEAR TEACHING PERIOD, HE WILL BE RELEASED AGAIN FOR A SHORT TIME TO TEST THE PEOPLE ONCE MORE. JUDGMENT FOLLOWS RIGHT AFTERWARDS. ON JUDGMENT DAY HE WILL TURN INTO ASHES FROM WITHIN (EZEKIEL 28:18, REV. 20), AND NONE WILL HELP HIM.

GOD BLESS

THE BOOK OF DANIEL (CHAPTER ELEVEN---PART ONE)

 

                                                PAST AND PRESENT PROPHECIES.

Daniel 11:1  (Also I in the first year of Darius the Mede (CYRUS), even I, stood to confirm and to strengthen him.)

THIS VERSE IS PARENTHETICAL, TO TELL US WHAT THE ANGELIC SPEAKER HAD DONE TWO YEARS PREVIOUSLY (426 B.C.).

PART OF CHAPTER 11 IS HISTORY.

11:2  And now will I shew thee the truth. Behold, there shall stand up yet three kings in Persia; and the fourth shall be far richer than they all: and by his strength through his riches he shall stir up all against the realm of Grecia.

CAMBYSES, THE PSEUDO-SMERDIS, AND DARIUS HYSTAPES. WE KNOW FROM THIS VERSE THAT THERE WERE THREE, AFTER CYRUS, AND A FOURTH. WHOEVER HE WAS, HE WAS SUCCEEDED BY THE "MIGHTY KING" OF VERSE 4 (ALEXANDER THE GREAT).

THIS FOURTH KING WILL STIR UP ALL AGAINST THE REALM OF GRECIA BY STRENGTHENING HIMSELF IN HIS RICHES.

11:3 And a mighty king shall stand up, that shall rule with great dominion, and do according to his will. 

THE MIGHTY KING OF THE FUTURE IS "LITTLE HORN"=SATAN.

11:4  And when he shall stand up, his kingdom shall be broken, and shall be divided toward the four winds of heaven (THE FOUR WINDS HOLD THE VERY END OF THIS EARTH AGE; REV. 7); and not to his posterity, nor according to his dominion which he ruled: for his kingdom shall be plucked up, even for others beside those (BESIDE THOSE FOUR).

FOUR CONTEMPORARY KINGS.

THERE IS A BREAK BETWEEN THE PAST AND THE FUTURE, WHICH IS FROM 10:14, OF WHICH THIS CHAPTER IS THE CONTINUATION.

11:5  And the king of the south (EGYPT) shall be strong, and one of his princes; and he shall be strong above him, and have dominion; his dominion shall be a great dominion.

KING OF THE SOUTH=EGYPT WITH REFERENCE TO JUDEA.

IN 1948, ISRAEL BECAME A NATION FOR THE FIRST TIME SINCE CHRIST WALKED THE EARTH. IT WAS BROUGHT TO CONCLUSION IN 70 A.D., BY A ROMAN GENERAL NAMED TITUS.

11:6  And in the end of years they shall join themselves together; for the king's daughter of the south shall come to the king of the north (BABYLON) to make an agreement: but she shall  not retain the power of the arm; neither shall he stand (THE KING OF THE NORTH), nor his arm: but she shall be given up, and they that brought her, and he that begat her, and he that strengthened her in these times.

THIS IS ALL HISTORY, FUTURE TO DANIEL.

KING OF THE NORTH= BABYLON=PERSIAN GULF.

HUSSEIN ORDERED THE CITY OF BABYLON REBUILT (HISTORY).

SADAT OF EGYPT WAS FRIENDS WITH THE EMPEROR OF IRAN (KING OF THE NORTH).

IN ANCIENT HISTORY IT WAS PTOLEMY. BERENICE, WAS THE DAUGHTER OF PTOLEMY II (PHILADELPHUS) OF EGYPT.

THE KING OF THE NORTH WAS ANTIOCHUS, NORTH WITH REFERENCE TO JUDEA.

THEY MADE AN AGREEMENT TO COME TO TERMS UPON WHAT IS EQUITABLE BETWEEN THE PARTIES. HERE IT CONCLUDED HER MARRIAGE WITH ANTIOCHUS, WHO DIVORCED HIS WIFE (LAODICE) AND DISINHERITED HER SON (SELEUCUS CALLINICUS).

11:7  But out of a branch of her roots (SAME RELIGIOUS BELIEFS) shall one stand up in his estate, which shall come with an army, and shall enter into the fortress of the king of the north (IRAN), and shall deal against them, and shall prevail:

IN ANCIENT HISTORY, BERENICE'S BROTHER PTOLEMY III (EUERGETES),"ROOTS" REFERRING TO THEIR FATHER PTOLEMYY II (PHILADELPHUS).

IN HIS ESTATE= IN THE STEAD OF PHILADELPHUS, WHO ADVENGED THE MURDER OF BERENICE AND HER SON BY LAODICE. EURGETES HAD BEEN RESTORED.

IN RECENT HISTORY, IT WAS CHOMEINI WHO WENT AGAINST THE SHAW.

11:8  And shall also carry captives into Egypt their gods, with their princes, and with their precious vessels of silver and of gold; and he shall continue more years(FOUR YEARS, REIGNING 46 YEARS IN ALL) than the king of the north (THE SHAW).

THE SHAW OF IRAN WENT TO EGYPT WITH MUCH TREASURES AFTER HE WAS EXPELLED. HE DIED SOON AFTER THIS WITH CANCER. THAT'S WHY THE KING OF THE SOUTH CONTINUED MORE YEARS.

NOTE: EGYPT HAD MORE TROOPS ALIGN WITH IRAQ THAN ANY OTHER NATION, FIGHTNING AGAINST CHOMEINI.

IN ANCIENT HISTORY, THE PRECIOUS VESSELS, THE VESSELS OF DESIRE, SAID TO HAVE BEEN VALUED AT 40,000 TALENTS OF SILVER; AND 2,400 IMAGES, INCLUDING EGYPTIAN IDOLS, WHICH CAMBYSES HAD TAKEN FROM EGYPT. HENCE HE WAS NAMED BY THE GRATEFUL EGYPTIAN "EUERGETES" (BENEFACTOR).

11:9  So the king of the south shall come into his kingdom, and shall return into his own land.

11:10 But his sons shall be stirred up, and shall assemble a multitude of great forces: and one shall certainly come, and overflow, and pass through: then shall he return, and be stirred up, even to his fortress.

IN ANCIENT HISTORY, SELEUCUS II (CALLINICUS) AND HIS BROTHER ANTIOCHUS III. ANTIOCHUS III, THE SECOND KING OF THE NORTH, HIS BROTHER HAVING DIED BY A FALL FROM HIS HORSE.

ONE SHALL COME AGAINST HIM AND DEFEAT ANTIOCHUS III.

IN RECENT HISTORY, SADAT CALLED HIS MILITARY HIS SONS. HE DIED AT THE HANDS OF HIS SO-CALLED SONS.

11:11 And the king of the south shall be moved with choler, and shall come forth and fight with him, even with the king of the north: and he shall set forth a great multitude; but the multitude shall be given into his hand.

THEY DID NOT SUCCEED.

IN ANCIENT HISTORY, ANTIOCHUS III (KING OF THE NORTH), DELIVERED INTO PTOLEMY'S HAND (PTOLEMY III, THE KING OF THE SOUTH).

IN RECENT HISTORY, IT WAS THE 8 YEAR WAR (IRAN-IRAQ).

11:12 And when he hath taken away the multitude, his heart shall be lifted up; and he shall cast down many ten thousands: but he shall not be strengthened by it.

IN ANCIENT HISTORY, THIS OCCURRED AT RAPHIA, SOUTHWEST OF GAZA.

IN RECENT HISTORY, THIS OCCURRED DURING THE IRAN-IRAQ 8 YEAR WAR.

11:13  For the king of the north shall return, and shall set forth a multitude greater than the former, and shall certainly come after certain years with a great army and with much riches.

IN ANCIENT HISTORY, THIS WAS 14 YEARS AFTER HIS DEFEAT AT RAPHIA.

IN RECENT HISTORY, CHOMEINI WENT IN THE SOUTH PART OF IRAQ AND PUT EVERYTHING THAT HE HAD INTO THE FORTFRONT, IN THE BORDER OF KUWAIT.

THEY WERE ONLY TYPES SO WE KNOW THE CHRONOLOGICAL AND GEOGRAPHICAL LOCATION. WHY? BECAUSE THIS WILL BE THE AREA THAT WE NEED TO WATCH FOR SIGNS OF THE END.

11:14  And in those times there shall many stand up against the king of the south: also the robbers of thy People shalt exalt themselves to establish the vision (TO HELP TO FULFIL PROPHECY, BY TAKING THE SIDE OF SYRIA, SO AS TO MAKE JUDEA INDEPENDENT); but they shall fall (THE KENITES).

IN ANCIENT HISTORY, THE KING OF THE SOUTH IS PTOLEMY V (EPIPHANES), A MERE CHILD.

THE ROBBERS= THE APOSTATE JEWS=KENITES (SATAN'S OFFSPRING).

IN RECENT HISTORY, SADAT, KING OF THE SOUTH.

11:15  So the king of the north shall come, and cast up a mount, and take the most fenced cities: and the arms of the south shall not withstand, neither his chosen people, neither shall there be any strength to withstand.

IN ANCIENT HISTORY, IT'S ANTIOCHUS III (THE GREAT); AND VERSES 16-19 DESCRIBES HIS DOINGS, WHICH WERE A TYPICAL FORESHADOWING OF HIS ANITYPE, "THE LITTLE HORN", THE YET FUTURE ANTICHRIST, DESCRIBED IN 11:21-12:1; WHICH SHOW HOW THE LATTER PORTION CAN BE FULFILLED BY SATAN AS THE ANTICHRIST.

11:16  But he that cometh against him shall do according to his own will, and none shall stand before him: and he shall stand in the glorious land, which by his hand shall be consumed.

IN ANCIENT HISTORY, IT WAS PTOLEMY V.

WATCH THE PERSIAN GULF.

IN RECENT HISTORY IS CHOMEINI.

IN THE NEAR FUTURE, IT'S SATAN PLAYING THE ROLE OF ANTICHRIST (INSTEAST OF CHRIST IN THE GREEK).

11:17  He shall also set his face to enter with the strength of his whole kingdom, and upright ones with him; thus shall he do: and he shall give him his daughter of women, corrupting her: but she shall not stand on his side, neither be for him.

IN ANCIENT HISTORY, CLEOPATRA (THE DAUGHTER OF PTOLEMY V) WAS FULL OF BEAUTY, AND THE WOMEN BEING HER MOTHER AND GRANDMOTHER, WERE CARING FOR HER EDUCATION. SHE STOOD WITH HER HUSBAND AND DEFEATED HER FATHER'S PLANS.

IN RECENT HISTORY, CHOMEINI ENFORCED THE RELIGION OF ISLAM ON HIS PEOPLE.

11:18  After this shall he turn his face unto the isles, and shall take many: but a prince for his own behalf (FOR HIS OWN INTEREST) shall cause the reproach offered by him (ANTIOCHUS III) to cease; without his own reproach he shall cause it to turn upon him.

IN ANCIENT HISTORY, WE ARE TALKING ABOUT THE ROMAN GENERAL SCIPIO.

IN RECENT HISTORY, CHOMEINI WAS A VERY SICK MAN. HIS HEALTH WAS FAILING.

11:19  Then he shall turn his face toward the fort of his own land: but he shall stumble and fall, and not be found.

IN ANCIENT HISTORY, ANTIOCHUS III, AFTER HIS DEFEAT BY SCIPIO AT MANGNESIA (NEAR SMYRNA, TURKEY), WITHDREW TO SYRIA.

IN RECENT HISTORY, CHOMEINI DIED.

11:20  Then shall stand up in his estate a raiser of taxes (SADAM OF IRAQ) in the glory of the kingdom: but within few days he shall be destroyed, neither in anger, nor in battle.

IN ANCIENT HISTORY, IT WAS SELEUCUS CAUSING THE EXACTOR (HELIODORUS) TO PASS THROUGH JUDEA, THE GLORIOUS LAND. HE SENT HELIODORUS TO JERUSALEM TO PLUNDER THE TEMPLE.

IN RECENT HISTORY, IT WAS SADAM OF IRAQ.

HERE ENDS THE HISTORICAL PART PORTION, WHICH HAVE BEEN FULFILLED FOR US BUT WAS NOT FOR DANIEL. THE FOLLOWING VERSES IS STILL FUTURE.

GOD USES HISTORY TO LET US KNOW WHAT TOMORROW BRINGS.

PTOLEMY, ANTIOCHUS, SADAT, THE SHAW OF IRAN, SADAM, WERE ONLY TYPES.

GOD BLESS

THE BOOK OF DANIEL (CHAPTER TEN)

 

IN THIS CHAPTER, DANIEL CONTINUES WITH THE VISION HE HAD.

HE UNDERSTOOD THE FIRST PART BUT HE HAD HARD TIME UNDERSTANDING THE SECOND PART.

Daniel 10:1  In the third year of Cyrus king of Persia a thing was revealed unto Daniel, whose name was called Belteshazzar; and the thing was true, but the time appointed was long (A LONG WARFARE): and he understood the thing, and had understanding of the vision.

THIS IS TWO YEARS LATER THAN CHAPTER NINE. THIS IS DANIEL'S LATEST DATE; WHICH CONTINUES TO THE END OF THIS BOOK, SEVENTY-THREE YEARS SINCE HIS DEPORTATION: HE BEING NOW EIGHTY-NINE YEARS OLD.

THIS CYRUS WILL GIVE THE ORDER TO REBUILT THE WALLS OF JERUSALEM.

10:2  In those days I Daniel was mourning three full weeks.

10:3  I ate no pleasant bread, neither came flesh nor wine in my mouth, neither did I anoint myself at all, till three whole weeks were fulfilled.

10:4  And in the four and twentieth day of the first month (PASSOVER TIME), as I was by the side of the great river, which is Hiddekel (THE TIGRIS RIVER);

 THE 8 YEAR IRAN-IRAQ WAR WAS IN THAT AREA OF TIGRIS AND ALSO THE DESSERT STORM WAR.

10:5  Then I lifted up mine eyes, and looked, and behold a certain man clothed in linen, whose loins were girded with fine gold of Uphaz: 

10:6  His body also was like the beryl, and his face as the appearance of lightning, and his eyes as lamps of fire, and his arms and his feet like in color to polished brass, and the voice of his words like the voice of a strong multitude (A STRONG VOICE).

THIS IS AN ANGEL AND GOD WILL SPEAK THROUGH THIS ANGEL.

10:7  And I Daniel alone saw the vision: for the men that were with me saw not the vision; but a great quaking fell upon them, so that they fled to hide themselves.

THIS VISION WAS ONLY MEANT FOR DANIEL TO SEE.

10:8  Therefore I was left alone, and saw this great vision, and there remained no strength in me: for my comeliness was turned in me into corruption, and I retained no strength.

THE HEBREW TEXTS SAY, 'MY HEALTHY APPEARANCE WENT AWAY, AND I LOOKED MORE LIKE A FIGURE OF DEATH THAN LIFE.'

10:9  Yet heard I the voice of his words: and when I heard the voice of his words, then was I in a deep sleep on my face, and my face toward the ground.

DANIEL PASSED OUT. HE COULDN'T BARE THE FACE OF GOD. 

10:10  And, behold, an hand touched me, which set me upon my knees and upon the palms of my hands.

THE ANGEL HELPED HIM TO STAND UP AND A LITTLE STRENGTH CAME BACK TO HIM.

10:11  And he said unto me, 'O Daniel, a man greatly beloved, understand the words that I speak unto thee, and stand upright (STAND UP WHERE YOU ARE); for unto thee am I now sent.' And when he had spoken this word unto me, I stood trembling.

10:12  Then said he unto me, 'Fear not, Daniel: for from the first day that thou didst set thine heart to understand, and to chasten (HUMBLE) thyself before thy God, thy words were heard, and I am come for thy words.

10:13  But the prince of the kingdom of Persia withstood me one and twenty days (WAS STANDING CONFRONTING ME): but, lo, Michael, one of the chief princes, came to help me; and I remained (I LEFT HIM THERE) there with the kings of Persia.

THE RULERS MAYBE GOOD, ANGELIC (GOOD OR EVIL).

THIS IS AN END TIME PROPHECY. HE IS PREPARING US MENTALLY FOR THE END TIME.

PRINCE OF PERSIA=CYRUS.

PRINCE OF THIS WORLD=SATAN.

MICHAEL (WHO IS LIKE GOD IN THE HEBREW) IS THE RESTRAINER. THE SECOND ANGEL NAMED IN THIS BOOK. THE SPECIAL ANGELIC RULER FOR ISRAEL.

10:14  Now I am come to make thee understand what shall befall thy People in the latter days: for yet the vision is for many days."

THIS IS FUTURE.

10:15  And when he had spoken such words unto me, I set my face toward the ground, and I became dumb.

HE COULD NOT SPEAK.

MAKE A NOTE OF PSALMS 139:2, 9.

10:16  And, behold, one like the similitude of the sons of men touched my lips: then I opened my mouth, and spake, and said unto him that stood before me, 'O my lord, by the vision my sorrows are turned upon me, and I have retained no strength.

HE IS BEGINNING TO UNDERSTAND THIS VISION A LITTLE BIT.

HE DIDN'T HAVE A PROBLEM WITH THE FIRST ONE.

10:17  For how can the servant of this my lord talk with this my lord? for as for me, straightway there remained no strength in me, neither is there breath left in me.'

HOW CAN I SPEAK TO YOU, A SUPERNATURAL BEING ?

10:18  Then there came again and touched me one like the appearance of a man, and he strengthened me (STRENGTH FOR ENDURANCE IN THE HEBREW),

10:19  And said, 'Oman greatly beloved, fear not: peace be unto thee, be strong, yea, be strong.' And when he had spoken unto me, I was strengthened, and said, 'Let my lord speak; for thou hast strengthened me.'

10:20  Then said he, 'Knowest thou wherefore I come unto thee (HE DIDN'T)? and now will I return to fight with the prince of Persia (SATAN IS THE PRINCE OF PERSIA IN THE FUTURE. MICHAEL IS THE ONE WHO KICKS HIM AND HIS ANGELS OUT OF HEAVEN IN THE NEAR FUTURE; REV. 12:7-9): and when I am gone forth, lo, the prince of Grecia (ALEXANDER) shall come.

10:21  But I will shew thee that which is noted in the scripture of truth: and there is none that holdeth with me in these things, but Michael your prince.

WARNING: BEWARE OF THE ONES WHO SAY GOD SPEAKS TO ME. IF GOD SPEAKS TO SOMEONE HE OR SHE WOULDN'T BE STANDING. DANIEL PASSED OUT MORE THAN ONCE, HIS STRENGTH WAS GONE, BECAUSE HE COULDN'T HANDLE THE SUPERNATURAL.

GOD BLESS
