Answer 4

Lots of people look at Biblical Prophecy and try to say that "this is exactly how it is" or "that is how it is." Just live your life as Christ taught and study His word so that you recognize Him when He gets here.

Answer 5

Gabriel tells Daniel: “There are seventy weeks that have been determined upon your people and upon your holy city, in order to terminate the transgression, and to finish off sin, and to make atonement for error, and to bring in righteousness for times indefinite, and to imprint a seal upon vision and prophet, and to anoint the Holy of Holies. And you should know and have the insight that from the going forth of the word to restore and to rebuild Jerusalem until Messiah the Leader, there will be seven weeks, also sixty-two weeks. She will return and be actually rebuilt, with a public square and moat, but in the straits of the times.”—Daniel 9:24, 25.



According to the angel’s words, the “seventy weeks” would be divided into three periods: (1) “seven weeks,” (2) “sixty-two weeks,” and (3) one week. That would be 49 years, 434 years, and 7 years—totaling 490 years. Interestingly, The Revised English Bible reads: “Seventy times seven years are marked out for your people and your holy city.” Following their exile and suffering in Babylon for 70 years, the Jews would experience special favor from God for 490 years, or 70 years multiplied by 7. The starting point would be “the going forth of the word to restore and to rebuild Jerusalem.”



To determine the time of the Messiah’s arrival, first we need to learn the starting point of the period leading to the Messiah. According to the prophecy, it is “from the going forth of the word to restore and to rebuild Jerusalem.” When did this “going forth of the word” take place? According to the Bible writer Nehemiah, the word went forth to rebuild the walls around Jerusalem “in the twentieth year of Artaxerxes the king.” (Nehemiah 2:1, 5-8) Historians confirm that the year 474 B.C.E. was Artaxerxes’ first full year as ruler. Therefore, the 20th year of his rule was 455 B.C.E. Now we have the starting point for Daniel’s Messianic prophecy, that is, 455 B.C.E.



Daniel indicates how long the time period leading to the arrival of “Messiah the Leader” would last. The prophecy mentions “seven weeks, also sixty-two weeks”—a total of 69 weeks. How long is this period of time? Several Bible translations note that these are, not weeks of seven days, but weeks of years. That is, each week represents seven years. This concept of weeks of years, or seven-year units, was familiar to Jews of ancient times. For instance, they observed a Sabbath year every seventh year. (Exodus 23:10, 11) Therefore, the prophetic 69 weeks amount to 69 units of 7 years each, or a total of 483 years.

Now all we must do is count. If we count from 455 B.C.E., 483 years takes us to the year 29 C.E. That was exactly the year when Jesus was baptized and became the Messiah! (Luke 3:1, 2, 21, 22)



From 455 B.C.E. to 1 B.C.E. is 454 years. From 1 B.C.E. to 1 C.E. is one year (there was no zero year). And from 1 C.E. to 29 C.E. is 28 years. Adding these three figures gives us the total of 483 years. Jesus was “cut off” in death in 33 C.E., during the 70th week of years. (Daniel 9:24, 26)

Answer 6

I don't know but as God is my witness this is a true story!!!

Did anyone else hear the Fifth trumpet of God Almighty sound ?

Did anyone else hear the Fifth trumpet of God Almighty sound when oil wells were lit ablaze during “Operation Desert Storm”?

During the Gulf War when all the oil wells were lit ablaze I was attacked by a demon on three separate occasions all at night. This is what happened. While I slept this demon would fly through the window and attack me. The spirit inside me fought this demon briefly until I awoke. Then it made me take over. This demon was horrid and spun circles around me thrashing through my soul with his hands then left as fast as it came. The demon radiated with the pains associated with the abyss. He was like a coal pulled from the fire, with the pains of the abyss Rev 9, 3. This happened on three occasions as I have stated. The third time however was different from the rest. As before the demon attacked me but this time I had enough since to command it to leave in the name of Jesus Christ. What happened next is even more amazing. After commanding this demon to leave in the name of Jesus, the Holy Spirit delivered me outside my room into the hallway. The demon followed. It stood to my left and grabbing my hand with his, it placed its tail on top of my left hand. It sent waves of fire through my soul Rev 9, 10. The pain was so sever that I couldn't scream. Unconditionally, I looked straight up and said “father please help me”. The demon then left.



This all happened after being seduced into trying transcendental meditation and falling into spiritual bondage to witchcraft / demonic forces Rev 13,10. Or the spiritual bondage may have occurred after playing a Ouija board as a young boy. I’m not quite sure. What I am sure is that prior to being attacked by this demon I was forced to go through the N.W.O’s. “secret” ceremony of transcendental meditation assisted with witchcraft / demonic forces. Why I say demonic forces is that I believe all witchcraft to be the powers of demons / the Devil. I was forced with witchcraft, through methods of torture, to go through said ceremony. The methods of witchcraft included mind control, heart palpitations, witchcraft dreams causing sleep depravation and many other forms. In said ceremony I was instructed to except the worship of one of their many "demonic gods". They informed me that in excepting one of there gods I accepted them all. What better way to join all religions of the world together under one banner of 666.



This is the method Satan's secret society uses to distribute the “spiritual mark of the beast” and cause spiritual captivity Rev 13, 10. Have you received your spiritual mark yet? This may sound hard to believe for those who don’t know what I’m talking about but it is a true story. Hear are a few scriptures giving in sight. If anyone is to go into captivity into captivity they will go Rev.13, 10. This is a spiritual captivity to witchcraft / demonic forces. Who enslaved nations by her witchcraft Naham 3, 4. By your magic spell all nations were led astray Rev 18, 23.

There is a way out, but it is difficult. Those who overcame overcame by the blood of the lamb and the “word” of their testimony. They didn’t love their own lives so much as to shrink from death Rev.12, 11. By their fear of death they are held in, spiritual captivity Heb. 2, 15. Satan’s secret society has many names a few are the Mafia / Illuminate Masons 666! Have they been using drug dealers to terrorize your neighbor hood? Christians are their many “Free” Masons and Shriner’s in your Christian church? I’m sure they are in all walks of life and the cancer is spreading through out society.



I know, I post this all the time! Here is the rest of the story. Three to four nights later the demon returned in the early am like 3am. He wasn't alone Satan/Apollyon and his twin brother was with him. They hovered in the air above the ground, before the olive tree in the back yard. I could see them as the spirit in me manifested them to me! Satan hovered in the middle while the demons were on either side of him. The demon on his left had been thrown into the lake of fire for what he did to me. He radiated like a coal pulled from the fire what seemed to be 15'x15'. He was lit up like a Christmas tree! Graciously yours baptized by fire the witness! Who will believe this testimony? God will be my witness!

Answer 7

It would take me far more than the apace allotted here to fully explain, but I will do my best in a very truncated version. I think happiness (the one just above me) was very close, but I think it was 457 BC. There were four decrees altogether, Cyrus in 536 BC, then Darius in 519 BC, then two by Artaxerxes, 457 and 444 BC. The one in 457 was the only one to receive an official seal, and the one in 444 was pretty much just an affirmation of the earlier one in 457. Ezra left Babylon on the first day of Nisan, 457 BC to go back and rebuild the temple. The end of the entire period, or the 2300 years that Daniel spoke of is 1844. The first day of Nisan in our year of 1844 was, if memory serves, March 21 (May be March 25, but I do not think so.). In Revelation 3:12 Jesus said He would have a new name when He returns. If you told a Jew that Christ had appeared, he would deny it. The Baha'i Faith started on May 23, 1844. There are thousands of prophecies from every religion that converge on 1844, Hindu, Muslim, Jewish, Christian, Native American and many more. Now, carefully consider these words: (Each quote is just a tiny part of a much longer passage.)



********************



The Jews await the Messiah, the Christians the return of Christ, the Moslems the Mahdi, the Buddhists the fifth Buddha, the Zoroastrians Shah Bahram, the Hindus the reincarnation of Krishna, and the Atheists - a better social organization! Baha'u'llah represents all these, and thus destroys the rivalries and the enmities of the different religions; reconciles them in their primitive purity, and frees them from the corruption of dogmas and rites.



(Abdu'l-Baha, Tablets of Abdu'l-Baha v1, p. vii)



Say, O followers of the Son![1] Have ye shut out yourselves from Me by reason of My Name? Wherefore ponder ye not in your hearts? Day and night ye have been calling upon your Lord, the Omnipotent, but when He came from the heaven of eternity in His great glory, ye turned aside from Him and remained sunk in heedlessness.

[1 Jesus.]



Consider those who rejected the Spirit [1] when He came unto them with manifest dominion. How numerous the Pharisees who had secluded themselves in synagogues in His name, lamenting over their separation from Him, and yet when the portals of reunion were flung open and the divine Luminary shone resplendent from the Dayspring of Beauty, they disbelieved in God, the Exalted, the Mighty. They failed to attain His presence, notwithstanding that His advent had been promised them in the Book of Isaiah as well as in the Books of the Prophets and the Messengers. No one from among them turned his face towards the Dayspring of divine bounty except such as were destitute of any power amongst men. And yet, today, every man endowed with power and invested with sovereignty prideth himself on His Name. Moreover, call thou to mind the one who sentenced Jesus to death. He was the most learned of his age in his own country, whilst he who was only a fisherman believed in Him. Take good heed and be of them that observe the warning.

[1 Jesus.]



(Baha'u'llah, Tablets of Baha'u'llah, p. 9)



O Jews! If ye be intent on crucifying once again Jesus, the Spirit of God, put Me to death, for He hath once more, in My person, been made manifest unto you. Deal with Me as ye wish, for I have vowed to lay down My life in the path of God. I will fear no one, though the powers of earth and heaven be leagued against Me. Followers of the Gospel! If ye cherish the desire to slay Muhammad, the Apostle of God, seize Me and put an end to My life, for I am He, and My Self is His Self. Do unto Me as ye like, for the deepest longing of Mine heart is to attain the presence of My Best-Beloved in His Kingdom of Glory. Such is the Divine decree, if ye know it. Followers of Muhammad! If it be your wish to riddle with your shafts the breast of Him Who hath caused His Book the Bayan to be sent down unto you, lay hands on Me and persecute Me, for I am His Well-Beloved, the revelation of His own Self, though My name be not His name. I have come in the shadows of the clouds of glory, and am invested by God with invincible sovereignty. He, verily, is the Truth, the Knower of things unseen. I, verily, anticipate from you the treatment ye have accorded unto Him that came before Me. To this all things, verily, witness, if ye be of those who hearken. O people of the Bayan! If ye have resolved to shed the blood of Him Whose coming the Báb hath proclaimed, Whose advent Muhammad hath prophesied, and Whose Revelation Jesus Christ Himself hath announced, behold Me standing, ready and defenseless, before you. Deal with Me after your own desires.
