  1. All right, let's bow for a word of prayer.

  2. Then we'll begin father. Thank you.

  3. Lord for tonight and chance that we have to study the word of the

  4. lord. We are a blessed people and

  5. you've given to us your word that we might be able to

  6. understand, not just the events of this day, but the events for

  7. all time and we are grateful that you've given us this

  8. opportunity. So Lord has struck this and

  9. teachers in the way that we should go.

  10. That we might leave here excited about the opportunities before

  11. us in Jesus name. Amen.

  12. Daniel chapter 9. Daniel chapter 9, what is one of

    Daniel 9 chapter mention Daniel 9 chapter mention

  13. the most instructional, one of the most informational and

  14. certainly one of the most inspirational chapters in all of

  15. the Bible. It informs you on how to pray

  16. and why prayer is so important. In the structure, you on how to

  17. pray and inspires you to pray? Well, same thing is true with

  18. the prophecy Daniels. Great prayer was followed by

  19. Daniel's great prophecy, the prophecy that would come to him.

  20. Him immediately after he had prayed because the Lord had

  21. dispensed Gabriel to come and give him the answer.

  22. And so, chapter 9 of Daniel provides for us a great

  23. framework for us to understand, not just how to pray, but the

  24. understanding of Prophecy in God's plan for his people

  25. Israel. Now, having said that, remember,

  26. Daniel, realizes that, as he reads the book of Jeremiah

  27. Jeremiah chapter 25 explicit, Pacifically Jeremiah chapter 29,

    Jeremiah 25 chapter mention Jeremiah 29 chapter mention

  28. he realizes that 70 years of captivity are just about up and

  29. when he realizes that he goes to prayer in Daniel 9.

  30. He goes to prayer and realizes that, because those 70 years are

  31. up, he's asking God to fulfill his word, which he will, because

  32. that's what God does. But he wants God to fulfill this

  33. works. We begin to confess his sin and

  34. then begins to confess the sins of Israel and he does this for

  35. the Lord's sake says in verse number, Number 19.

  36. Oh Lord, here for your sake and for your name.

  37. So everything he is doing. He's doing it for the sake of

  38. God and for the name of God and so as soon as he's done praying,

  39. God sends Gabriel to him to give the answer that he's asking.

  40. And the answer is not exactly what he's looking for.

  41. I'm not sure exactly what Daniel was looking for except for the

  42. fact that he wanted the Lord to answer the prayer that 70 years

  43. were up. And your people back knowing

  44. that, the Captivity, the 70 years of captivity are soon to

  45. be over. And remember, they're in

  46. captivity for 70 years. Because for 490 years, they

  47. didn't keep the Sabbath. The sabbatical the land

  48. sabbatical every seven years. And so, for 70 years, they

  49. wouldn't take activity. Second chronicles 36 verse

  50. number, 21 tells us that that's why they were in 70 years of

  51. captivity, but now it's around year. 68 years, 69 Nine and

  52. Daniel is close to 80 or in his 80s and he's saying this time is

  53. about up Lord, please answer and he confesses his sins and the

  54. sins of his people, Israel. Well, Gabriel shows up and he

  55. reiterates to Daniel, you need to get this, you need to

  56. understand this, I'm going to give you an answer, an answer

  57. you're not necessarily expecting but the answer I'm going to give

  58. you you need to understand and why is that so important?

  59. Because it tells Daniel About Israel's future, it tells us

  60. that God is not done with Israel.

  61. It tells us that the church in no way shape or form replaces

  62. Israel. Why?

  63. Because he's going to give a prophecy that encompasses 70

  64. weeks or 77 is the Hebrew word for weeks means sevens and so

  65. it's seventy sevens. Which Is 490 years.

  66. And the reason he does that is because God is taking what was

  67. taken from him. For those for 90 years of

  68. rebellion, remember issue has been in existence for about 800

  69. years at this point. And Ford are 90 of those years.

  70. They were living in Rebellion against God, and God is saying,

  71. I'm going to make up all that by giving you a prophecy that

  72. entails 77s or 490 years, You think that 70 years of captivity

  73. was bad? You wait till you hear what I

  74. have to share with you this evening or as a result of your

  75. prayer to me Daniel that you might understand exactly what is

  76. happening. Now, we need to understand very

  77. outset that God is not done with Israel.

  78. And how do we know that? How do we take from the

  79. scriptures that God is not done with the nation of Israel?

  80. Well remember the first point we gave you last week Was was the

  81. cause behind the prophecy member that.

  82. And there are three causes and that was the sovereignty of God,

  83. the sins of Israel and the setting up of God's kingdom,

  84. okay? Those three causes are outlined

  85. for us in verse number. Twenty four, seventy weeks have

  86. been decreed have been cut out. Specifically had been set out

  87. for Israel. It says 70 weeks have been

  88. decreed for your people and your holy city.

  89. So this only has to do with Israel and their, Holy City

  90. Jerusalem. Daniel has no idea what the

  91. church is, right? That's not even been born yet.

  92. And so, he has no idea what that means, but he does know who the

  93. People Israel are. He does know what the holy city

  94. is. And so, years have been cut out

  95. to deal with Israel and The city of Jerusalem.

  96. And so, the whole cause behind the prophet.

  97. He deals with the sovereignty of God, and they list the sins of

  98. the people, what's going to happen.

  99. And it tells you, we have it on your chart.

  100. If you if you want to look on your chart you can see it.

  101. It's right down here. These things right here, tell us

  102. what's going on. These three here deal with the

  103. sins of the people and the next four, five, and six deal with

  104. the setting up of God's kingdom. All that is in verse number 24.

  105. And so what God is doing is showing them, these are Sins of

  106. your people and we got a deal with those things and we got to

  107. set up the kingdom of God. But listen, none of this happens

  108. until at the end of the 70 weeks you can see that on your chart.

  109. You tells them 70 weeks have been set aside for your People,

  110. Israel to deal with their sins and to set up the kingdom of

  111. God, but all that's going to happen at the end of the 70

  112. weeks. Now, Daniel doesn't understand

  113. all that right now but that's exactly what happens.

  114. And when you did, when you deal with all the sins of the nation

  115. itself, okay? And so we realize that God is

  116. not done with his people Israel. We understand that because of

  117. listen to what the Bible says, way back in the book of 1st

  118. Samuel. 12 verse number 22 for the Lord will not abandon his

  119. people on account of his great name because the Lord has been

  120. pleased to make you a people for himself, the Lord made it Very

  121. clear that his name is at stake and he will not abandon his

  122. people. Well, if you read on and go to

  123. Psalm 89, you had the davidic Covenant and it says, in verse

  124. number 33, I will not break off my loving.

  125. Kindness from him, that is David, Nortel falsely nor deal

  126. falsely in my faithfulness. My Covenant, I will not violate.

  127. Nor will I alter the utterance of my lips?

  128. Once I have sworn by my Holiness, I will not lie to

  129. David. His descendants shall endure

  130. forever. / and his throne as the sun before me it shall be

  131. established forever like the moon and the witness in the sky

  132. is faithful. So, within the davidic, Covenant

  133. comes the promise to the nation of Israel that God will not

  134. abandon his people. Well, over in the book of

  135. Zechariah, we know that Israel is save Zechariah. 12 verse

  136. number 10. I will pour out on the House of

  137. David on the habits of The spirit of Grace that of

  138. Suffocation so that they will look on me.

  139. Whom they have pierced and they will mourn for him as One Mourns

  140. for an only son and they will be bitterly over him like the

  141. bitter weeping over a firstborn, then Chapter 13 Verse number

  142. one, it says in that day a fountain will be opened for the

  143. House of David and for the inhabitants of Jerusalem for sin

  144. and for iniquity. In other words, all this is

  145. going to happen at this point right here.

  146. I mean, Zechariah 12, verse number, 10 is when that takes

  147. place. Now, we know that the sins of

  148. Israel were atoned it. Calvary We Now understand that

  149. because that's where Tom it was made that happens after the 69

  150. weeks at Calvary. It happens in between the 69th

  151. week and the 70th week. There's a gat that's there and

  152. that's not a problem because I'm going to show you tonight where

  153. there are many gaps in scripture to show you that there can be a

  154. gap between week 69 and week number 70.

  155. So the 490 years are not consecutive years.

  156. The first 483 years, the first seven weeks, the Nick 62 weeks,

  157. 483 years they are consecutive but it goes up to that point

  158. that the Messiah The prince will arrive in Jerusalem, but it

  159. says, after the 60 second week, that's the sickest 60 second

  160. week, plus the seventh week, after the 69th week Messiah will

  161. be cut off. So that happens after the 69th

  162. week. So, Messiah is cut off in

  163. between the 69th and 70th week. That's when Messiah is

  164. crucified. That's where sin is atoned for,

  165. but it's not applied, which talks about atoning for the

  166. wickedness of Israel, right. This is where it happens.

  167. It's not applied till the end. Zachariah chapter 12 verses 10

  168. and 11 because they don't believe that Jesus is our

  169. Messiah. So, the cross of Calvary is

  170. something that was foolishness to them.

  171. Although the prophecy of Daniel teaches the death of the

  172. Messiah, coming ahead of myself here.

  173. But the Bible does say these words over in Romans chapter 9,

    Romans 9 chapter mention

  174. a shimmy Romans 11. I say, then God has not

  175. rejected. His people has, he may it never

  176. be for I too. Am an Israelite.

  177. A descendant of Abraham of The Tribe of Benjamin verse, 25 of

  178. Romans 11 for, I do not want you to be Brethren to be uninformed.

  179. Formed of this mystery so that you will not be wise in your own

  180. estimation. That a, partial hardening has

  181. happened to Israel until the fullness of the Gentiles has

  182. come in. And so all Israel will be saved.

  183. Just as it is written, the deliverer will come from Zion,

  184. he will remove ungodliness from Jacob.

  185. This is my Covenant with them. When I take away their sins, Ins

  186. God is going to take away, Israel sins.

  187. He is going to save the nation. Now, when it says, all Israel is

  188. going to be saved, listen carefully, when you see the

  189. word, all all is defined by context.

  190. All is defined by the Scripture. It doesn't mean that every Jew

  191. that's ever. Lived is going to be saved,

  192. right? When it says, all Jerusalem was

  193. coming down to the Jordan to be baptized, it doesn't mean that

  194. every single man woman Boy and girl was coming down to the

  195. Jordan, to be baptized by John the Baptist right?

  196. It's an all-inclusive term, but it doesn't mean that every

  197. single person is well, we know that not every single Jews going

  198. to be saved because Paul says in Romans 11, all Israel will be

  199. saved. We know there's a distinction to

  200. that because Zachariah 12 tells us that two thirds.

  201. The nation will be refined or purged out and 1/3 he will keep

  202. from him for himself. One third will be saved, so we

  203. know from Zechariah 13 that the one-third of Zechariah 13 is the

  204. all Israel of Romans chapter 11 when Paul says, all Israel will

    Romans 11 chapter mention

  205. be saved. That doesn't mean that Jews are

  206. not saved today. They are safe, they're stage

  207. individually. But we're talking about a

  208. national salvation of a group of people who look upon the one

  209. whom they have pierced and they weep for him, They Mourn for him

  210. and then Give their life to their Messiah and that's what

  211. happens is a cariah chapter 12. Okay?

  212. So we know that God is not done with his people, Israel.

  213. God has a plan for the nation. That's why he is decreed.

  214. He has cut out, he is predetermined 70 weeks, 70

  215. weeks, 490 years, 77s. We know it's not 77s of days or

  216. weeks or months because that doesn't even get us to the birth

  217. of the Messiah. Let alone the death of the

  218. Messiah, so we know it's 77s, meaning 77s of years, 490 years.

  219. And so, we know that as you look at your outline on the back of

  220. your chart, the point. Number one, was the cause behind

  221. the prophecy. And point number two, is the

  222. command that began the prophecy. How do you know where to begin

  223. the prophecy? Well, the Bible tells you Daniel

    Daniel 9 chapter mention

  224. chapter 9, it says very clearly. So you are two known as CERN

  225. that from the issuing of a decree to restore and rebuild

  226. Jerusalem until the Messiah. The prince there will be seven

  227. weeks and sixty-two weeks. It will be built again with

  228. Plaza and mode even in times of distress.

  229. So what was the decree? Or the command that began to

  230. prophesy. Well, we know that the Bible

  231. tells us in Nehemiah chapter 1 and Nehemiah chapter 2, that

    Nehemiah 1 chapter mention Nehemiah 2 chapter mention

  232. there was a decree given by artaxerxes, we know that there

  233. were four of them, okay? But three of the four deal with

  234. the rebuilding of the temple, only one deals with the

  235. rebuilding of the city of Jerusalem and the walls around

  236. the city, and the moat and the plaza, the streets, that kind of

  237. stuff that In Nehemiah chapter 2, with artaxerxes, which

    Nehemiah 2 chapter mention

  238. happened on the 14th of Nisan, 445 BC.

  239. So we know the exact date of when the 70 weeks of the

  240. prophecy begins. That's very simple.

  241. That's not hard to understand. And so that's how you come up

  242. that we know there are four of them but there's only one that

  243. really fits the timeline. It's just one because it deals

  244. with the building of Jerusalem, not the building of the temple

  245. but it takes Seven weeks, or 49 years to finish everything, the

  246. rebuilding of Jerusalem, the rebuilding the streets, the wall

  247. or took 52 days for the book of Nehemiah.

  248. But to finish all that, it took seven weeks, that's why there's

  249. a division between the seven weeks and the 62 weeks which

  250. equals sixty nine weeks. Why?

  251. Because when this is done right, everything is done and now

  252. they're going to wait and they're going to wait and

  253. they're going to wait. For the arrival of the Messiah.

  254. And you had those 400 silent years between the book, The Old

  255. Testament and the New Testament before Christ comes.

  256. So they're in anticipation mode, they are waiting for their

  257. Messiah to come And so, as you read on the text, it tells us,

  258. then the coming of the Messiah. The prince is point number 3,

  259. and it tells us these words, it says, so you are to know and

  260. discern their from the issuing of the decree to restore and

  261. rebuild Jerusalem until the Messiah.

  262. The prince there will be seven weeks and sixty-two weeks.

  263. So Messiah, the prince, the arrival of the Messiah, a formal

  264. arrived in the Messiah, which we know here.

  265. Lives according to Zechariah 9 verse number nine.

  266. How on the backside of a donkey member Zechariah 9 verse number

  267. 9, he tells us how the Messiah is going to come.

  268. It says Rejoice greatly o Daughter of Zion shout and

  269. shrimp o daughter of Jerusalem. Behold your king is coming to

  270. you. He is just an endowed with

  271. salvation, humble, and mounted on a donkey.

  272. Even on a Colt, the foal Full of a donkey.

  273. So we know there's coming. The Messiah zechariah's prophecy

  274. tells us all right, and he's going to come at a very

  275. particular time, and that time is going to be according to the

  276. triumphal entry of Christ, in Luke chapter 19, which according

    Luke 19 chapter mention

  277. to the date April 6th, a t32 and down here is a proof as to how

  278. you know, that's the exact day. 173,880 days for the time of

  279. March 14th, 445 BC until Ad April 6th 3280.

  280. So that's how, you know, the days.

  281. And so we talked about that last week.

  282. So it's a very precise prophecy. It's a very detailed prophecy.

  283. It all comes together exactly as the Lord said and so, that's

  284. what happens. Messiah comes.

  285. But then, it says these words, then after the 62 weeks, the

  286. Messiah will be cut off. So, after the 62 weeks, Besides

  287. cut off. So it's not a, that's a thing

  288. about the, the 70th week, 62 and 769 so, but after this time for

  289. period, Messiah is cut off. We know there's a week.

  290. Left that weeks going to come later the prophecy, but this is

  291. not that weak. So after the 69 weeks Messiah

  292. dies he's cut off. It's a term keroth which deals

  293. with the killing of a criminal and we know our Lord died as a

  294. criminal between two crore to between two thieves, Messiah

  295. died. You see it's very important to

  296. realize it the Old Testament teaches the death of the

  297. Messiah. Now I'm thinking about this if

  298. you're Daniel right, you know as Daniel Psalm 22 which teaches

  299. the Of the Messiah. As Daniel, you know, Isaiah 53,

  300. which speaks of the death of the Messiah.

  301. Okay, now listen, Psalm 22 was written a thousand years before

  302. the death of Christ Thousand Years.

  303. Isaiah 53 was written 700 years before the death of Christ.

  304. Book of Zachariah talks about the death of the Messiah.

  305. Zachariah 12:10. It was written five hundred

  306. fifty years. Before the death of the Messiah,

  307. that he would be pierced were dealing with crucifixion.

  308. Why is that at all? Why is that important?

  309. Because Isaiah 53, Psalm, 22, Zechariah 12, all teacher, death

  310. of Messiah as being pierced. Meaning, that he be crucified

  311. and there had never been a crucifixion yet.

  312. There wasn't a crucifixion till 500.

  313. BC. First recorded, crucifixion was

  314. in 500 BC by the Persians. He wasn't even perfected till 63

  315. BC by the Romans. That's when they perfected it.

  316. And yet, a thousand years before our Lord was crucified, it was

  317. prophesied, that he be crucified. 750 years, Isaiah

    Isaiah 53:5

  318. 53:5, 700 years, 550 years, Zechariah, 12, verses verses 10

  319. and 11. That is so important to realize

  320. this, that all that was being taught before anybody ever

  321. thought of a crucifixion before because the Lord had determined

  322. eternity past That he'd be the lamb slain, before the

  323. foundation of the world. Now, remember, when Christ rides

  324. into Jerusalem, in Luke chapter, 19.

  325. He laments the fact that they did not know the day and he

  326. calls it. What kind of day the day of

  327. their visitation? This is so good.

  328. This is worth the price of admission, okay?

  329. Because you're going to find out something before anybody else.

  330. On Sunday finds out about it. The day of your visitation.

  331. Why is that so important? Because there was a day that

  332. Messiah was going to visit his people.

  333. Israel and that day had been prophesied in Daniel chapter 9.

    Daniel 9 chapter mention

  334. but it really goes deeper than that because all the way back to

  335. the Book of Genesis to the very last chapter in the book of

  336. Genesis The Book of Genesis begins.

  337. With creation. And ends with a grave.

  338. The Book of Genesis is a fabulous study but in the Book

  339. of Genesis, I want you to realize.

  340. What is said, says these words. Joseph said to his brothers, I

  341. am about to die, but God will surely, listen carefully.

  342. Visit you? God is going to visit you.

  343. Sui tells him? Didn't Joseph made the sons of

  344. Israel. Swear saying God will surely

  345. visit you and you shall carry him my bones up from here.

  346. Now think about this all the way back in the Book of Genesis 50th

  347. chapter Joseph, one of the Patriarchs believes in the

  348. stands, the importance of the land of Canaan when Jacob died.

  349. He told, Joseph, take me back to the cave of machpelah and bury

  350. me. Joseph did But Joseph dies and

  351. Joe says, don't take me back. Not when I die but I want you to

  352. take my bones back, meaning that there'd have to be a decaying of

  353. the body. It's not going to be right away.

  354. It's going to be a while. Why?

  355. Because of something about those bones that's going to be very

  356. instrumental in the well-being of the nation of Israel.

  357. So, it's not till Moses. Okay. 400-plus years later.

  358. Right? Carries the box of Bones out of

  359. Egypt, okay? And takes them and Joshua will

  360. then bury them some 40 years later.

  361. In the land of Israel. Okay, so here's Moses but we

  362. know that Israel was to take all the spoils of Egypt with them,

  363. right? And they and they were well

  364. endowed with The Spoils of Egypt and Pharaoh gave it to them and

  365. they left with them. But but Moses think the bones of

  366. Joseph. Why?

  367. Because you could almost hear the bones singing.

  368. Can't you? Right?

  369. Thigh bone said to the hip bone, you know, because it's something

  370. about the bone that speak. That's very, very important.

  371. Why? Because you're all telling the

  372. story about how God will visit his people Israel, it was all in

  373. preparation of. Where would he visit them in the

  374. promised land? The land of Israel.

  375. And he was going to come and he was going to visit them and he

  376. did, he did come but they didn't recognize your day of their

  377. visitation. Good day.

  378. So in Luke 19, when he arrives you didn't recognize a day of

  379. your visitation. It's almost if he said she don't

  380. want way back in Genesis Joseph told you That his bones would be

  381. a symbol, a memorial of my visitation to you.

  382. I even gave you a prophecy that would give you the exact day

  383. which I would ride into Jerusalem. 173,880 days from

  384. Nisan. 14 March 14th. 445 BC. You still missed it.

  385. You were completely blinded to it, but you should have known.

  386. This is so important to realize that the whole Bible connects

  387. one verse upon another always consistently speaking.

  388. The same truth is showing you how it all comes together to

  389. point to one person that person being the Lord Jesus Christ in

  390. all these done for us. And so, you've seen the cause

  391. behind the prophecy, the command that began the prophecy, the

  392. coming of the Messiah, the prince, then the cutting off of

  393. Messiah, the prince Then point number five, the completion of

  394. the destruction of the city. The completion of destruction of

  395. the city and the sanctuary. Listen, what it says, Daniel

    Daniel 9 chapter mention

  396. chapter 9 Says, he's words. So I will be cut off and had

  397. nothing and the people of the prince who is to come, will

  398. destroy the city and the sanctuary, and it's in will come

  399. with the flood. Even to the end.

  400. There will be War. Desolations are determined.

  401. Okay? So now not only do you have a

  402. crucifixion that happens at the end of the week of the 69th

  403. week? When this is at the, in the 69th

  404. week, it comes And then after that week is over Messiahs cut

  405. off some 40 years later. You have what the destruction of

  406. the city of Jerusalem in 70 AD. So you see now the Gap is

  407. widening, is a not from, just a few days 4 days to now 40 years

  408. in 70 AD, and we know that's exactly what happened.

  409. Now, the text says these words, it says the people of the prince

  410. who is thick Come, who's the prince to come?

  411. Notice. It's a little peanut a big p,

  412. right? The Messiah.

  413. The prince is the Messiah that we all know and understand to be

  414. the Lord Jesus Christ. But the prince who is to come,

  415. is the anti Messiah, who is the Antichrist, but it's the people

  416. of that prints that are going to destroy the city in 70 AD.

  417. Now remember, Daniel doesn't know the timeframe.

  418. He just knows that after 69 weeks besides going to be cut

  419. off, but that's even got to be something going on his brain.

  420. Why? Because the last time you had a

  421. prophecy about the Messiah, was Daniel 7 and in, Daniel 7, what

  422. did you see the Messiah doing? He's coming in clouds of great

  423. Glory, right? That's how he sees the Messiah

  424. coming, so when he come to Daniel chapter 9, Messiah, now

    Daniel 9 chapter mention

  425. is cut off. How does the king coming and

  426. great Glory? All of a sudden die.

  427. How does that happen? And so now he's trying to think

  428. through all the situation concerning the coming of the

  429. Messiah. Because in Daniel 7, akina set

  430. up his kingdom. But in Daniel 9 beside the

  431. princes cut off, he dies. So, you think you're confused?

  432. Just think how confused Daniel would have been thinking, wait a

  433. minute, how does how does all this come together because you

  434. see, remember, they don't understand the church age, they

  435. don't know what that means. That's why, Ephesians 3 talks

  436. about it being a mystery. It's something concealed in the

  437. Old Testament, but revealed in the New Testament, they had no

  438. idea about the church age. except it was all part of the

  439. plan of God, but the 70 weeks Had nothing to do with the

  440. church. They have everything to do with

  441. Israel and Israel, only and its Holy City.

  442. You've got to keep that in mind. And so, The people of the

  443. prince, who are the people of the prince?

  444. Well, we know from Daniel 2. And Daniel 7, there are four

  445. World Empires. We know that we know the first

  446. one was Babylon. A second was medo-persia, third

  447. one was Greece. Fourth one was Rome, right?

  448. Okay. And Rome would be in power.

  449. When the Lord, of course, himself would arrive in the

  450. Incarnation. But okay, the people of the

  451. prince who is Come. Has to be wrong because the the

  452. Antichrist as we soften Daniel 7 Rises out of ten Nation

  453. Confederacy, which is based in Rome.

  454. So we understand, Daniel 9 to be a fulfillment of 70 AD when the

  455. city was completely destroyed. That's why Christ says in.

  456. Luke 21 these words, Luke chapter 21.

    Luke 21 chapter mention

  457. But when you see Jerusalem, surrounded by armies, then

  458. recognize that her desolation is near.

  459. Then those who are in Judea must flee to the Mountains and those

  460. who are in the midst of the city must leave.

  461. And those who are in the country, must not enter the city

  462. because these are days of Vengeance that all things, which

  463. are written, will be fulfilled, woe to those who are pregnant

  464. and to those who are nursing babies.

  465. In those days, for there will be great distress upon the land and

  466. wrath to this people. And they will fall by the edge

  467. of the sword and will be led captive into all the nations and

  468. Jerusalem. Will be trampled underfoot by

  469. the Gentiles until the times of the Gentiles be fulfilled.

  470. I remember the times of the Gentiles began when Daniel 11

  471. verse number 1, That's when the time's the Gentiles began,

  472. that's the time which the Gentiles dominate the land and

  473. they dominate Israel and that continues Until the End.

  474. Okay? So the times of the Gentiles

  475. doesn't really end until this time right here at the end of

  476. the tribulation at the end of the 70th week.

  477. Because that's when God Saves Israel and they, they now Rule

  478. and reign with their Messiah. In the millennial Kingdom.

  479. So Messiah, the prince, the prince, I mean, the prince who

  480. is to come the Antichrist. His people are going to destroy

  481. the city, and of course, 70 AD can read about it.

  482. Josephus in his is book, The, the history and Antiquities of

  483. the Jews and realize all about the destruction and how 1.1

  484. million Jews were crucified and they ran out of wood with all

  485. the four surrounding Jerusalem. They cut down every tree that

  486. they possibly could. Because they were crucified

  487. every Jew they could find they slaughtered them.

  488. The times that desolation would continue as a determined time.

  489. That's what it says in Daniel chapter 9, it says even to the

    Daniel 9 chapter mention

  490. end. There will be War.

  491. Desolations are determined. There will be much War, much

  492. more and then and then you got your point.

  493. Number six, the Covenant of the future Prince that happens in

  494. verse number 27, and he will make a firm Covenant with the

  495. Mini 4. One Week, there's your 70th

  496. week, so we know that there is a week, it's one week.

  497. We know that after 69 weeks, Messiahs cut off, he's not cut

  498. off during the 69 weeks, he's not cut off in the 70th week.

  499. He's cut off after the 69th week, the cities destroyed after

  500. the 69th week, but then there's going to be a covenant made with

  501. Israel confirmed with Israel for One week.

  502. That's your 70th week. Now remember There are 70 weeks

  503. that have been determined cut out for Israel and the Holy City

  504. Jerusalem. Not the church.

  505. The church was not in the first 69 weeks of the prophecy.

  506. The church will not be in the 70th week of the prophecy.

  507. Why? Because it's not for the church.

  508. It's for Israel and their holy city and then it says very

  509. clearly. That he that is the prince.

  510. Who is to come will make a firm Covenant with the many for one

  511. week. What you going to do?

  512. He is going to confirm every treaty.

  513. That Israel has. That's why in Revelation 6.

  514. Verse number 24, the think I get that up there, right?

  515. Revelation 6, verse 22, he comes on the back of a horse having

  516. having a boat with no arrows because he comes in peace, he

  517. makes peace. Before he talked about Ezekiel

  518. 38. Remember when Russia comes

  519. against Israel in the Antichrist leads Israel against Russia and

  520. defeats them and all that does is increase his hero status.

  521. He becomes not just the prince of some semblance of Peace for

  522. Israel because Ezekiel 38 says, they live a nun walled cities.

  523. What does that mean? There's no fear of anything

  524. happening to them because they're at peace.

  525. And it says these words. But in the middle of the week,

  526. he will put a stop to sacrifice in Grain offering.

  527. When is that take place at the expense to the temple?

  528. That means there has to be a temple during the 70th week of

  529. Daniel prophecy, because he's going to put it in, to the

  530. sacrifices, he's going to put it into the offerings.

  531. Well, for that to happen, there has to be a temple in Jerusalem

  532. on the Temple Mount and so, They're going to build Israel's

  533. going to build a temple for their anti Messiah.

  534. And there will be peace. Yes will be wars and rumors of

  535. wars and they'll be difficulties all throughout the whole

  536. tribulation period, but the very beginning when he confirms a

  537. covenant with Israel, you will be a covenant of peace and that

  538. Covenant will allow him to rule in Israel and he will be there.

  539. Anti-messiah But then it says these words.

  540. Ben Miller week, he will put a stop to sacrifice a grain

  541. offering and on the wing of abomination, will come one who

  542. makes desolate. This is what Christ referred to

  543. as the abomination of desolation.

  544. How do you make the temple in Jerusalem and Abomination

  545. through idolatry and what is the idolatry?

  546. He sets himself up as king to be worshipped, we were dead.

  547. We went through our study of second Thessalonians. 2nd

  548. Thessalonians chapter 2. Verse number 4, says these

  549. words, it says this man of lawlessness.

  550. The stone destruction who opposes and exalts himself above

  551. every so-called God or object of worship.

  552. Said. He takes his seat in the temple

  553. of God displaying himself as being God.

  554. And so the false prophet, okay, the Babylonian Harlot who has

  555. helped him, rot come to power, he destroys her couldn't

  556. Revelation 17 as well, why he's going to destroy Israel's

  557. worship is going to destroy the false churches worship because

  558. he will be the only one who can be.

  559. Worshiped, he wants sets himself up to be God.

  560. That's the abomination of desolation.

  561. So Daniel, here's all this Daniels listening.

  562. That's why Gable says, get it heat it, understand it.

  563. There are 70 weeks of Daniel. 70 weeks that have been decreed

  564. have been cut out of the entire time.

  565. Of the world. Specifically dealing with the

  566. nation of Israel and the City Jerusalem.

  567. He says, I'm going to tell you when they begin.

  568. Okay. The decree of artaxerxes, March,

  569. 14, 445 BC. This is exactly when it's going

  570. to begin. He doesn't know that yet.

  571. It's going to happen, right? He just letting everybody know

  572. when it's going to be in. So, you know, the time frame of

  573. the 70 weeks of Daniel is prophecy, In those first seven

  574. weeks, City Boot will be real, the wall would be rebuilt.

  575. The infrastructure will be rebuilt.

  576. Everything we take care of in those first seven weeks, and

  577. then, they'll be 62 weeks. And that will be after the Book

  578. of Malachi and there will be a time of 400 silent years.

  579. There know, this yet, they're just waiting and waiting and

  580. waiting for messiah to come And when he finally gets there on

  581. the day, 80 32 April, 6th on the day of visitation, that they

  582. should have known. They did not know.

  583. Is this one Messiah was going to visit them and they missed it,

  584. right? Well, after those 69 weeks

  585. Messiah will be cut off. The city will be made desolate.

  586. That was 40 years later. So you have a gap, right?

  587. Then you have the church age, it's been Years.

  588. Well he would have never known that, but the Bible is filled

  589. with gaps. Let me show you this Isaiah 9,

  590. you know, as a 9, right? Let me read it to you 46.

  591. For a child, will be born to us. A son, will be given and the

  592. government will rest on his shoulders.

  593. See the gap. The child was given the Sun.

  594. The child was born, a son was given, right?

  595. But the government was that up on a shoulders.

  596. One in the Incarnation. There's a gap that's there.

  597. It is says, his name will be called, wonderful, counselor,

  598. Mighty God, Eternal Father, Prince of Peace.

  599. There will be no end to the increase of his government or of

  600. Peace on the throne of David and over his kingdom.

  601. That hasn't happened. There's a huge gap there to

  602. establish it and to uphold it with Justice and righteousness

  603. from then on and forever. More the Zeal of the Lord of

  604. hosts will accomplish this, there's coming to King He is a

  605. son that's given, he is a child that's born.

  606. He is called The Mighty God because he's God In the Flesh.

  607. He is El Gabor, he is the Prince of Peace, is Everlasting,

  608. father, that government, that rulership will be on the

  609. shoulders, but it didn't happen when he arrived the first time

  610. because there's a gap and that Gap is the church age between

  611. the crucifixion of the Messiah until the Rapture of the church.

  612. That's why we Leave in the Rapture of the church before the

  613. tribulation because the tribulation period, the seventh

  614. week of years prophecy, the church is not mentioned in the

  615. Book of Revelation. Why?

  616. Because they're not a part of the 70th week of Daniel is

  617. prophesying, why? Because they're not a part of

  618. the time of Jacob's trouble. Jeremiah chapter 30 verse number

    Jeremiah 30 chapter mention

  619. 7. Say, it's not for the church.

  620. It's for Israel. It's the purging out of Israel.

  621. Zechariah 13. Whoo-hoo.

  622. Thirds will die. One third will be saved.

  623. That's the all of Romans 11 that goes into the Kingdom.

  624. So there's a gap in Isaiah 9. There is a gap.

  625. Isaiah 61 The spirit of the Lord God is upon me.

  626. Now, remember this is read by Christ.

  627. And Luke chapter 4 in a synagogue in Nazareth because

    Luke 4 chapter mention

  628. the Lord has anointed me to bring good news to The

  629. Afflicted. He has sent me to blot bind up

  630. the Brokenhearted to Proclaim Liberty to captives and freedom,

  631. to prisoners, to proclaim the favorable year of the Lord, and

  632. the day of Vengeance of our God. But there's a gap.

  633. Because when it says to proclaim the favorable year of Our Lord,

  634. the Lord closes the scroll and says today, this has been

  635. fulfilled in your hearing every Rabbi said, one day is going to

  636. be fulfilled. On this day, this Rabbi said.

  637. It is fulfilled. Why?

  638. Because it wasn't the day of vengeance.

  639. What is the day of Vengeance of the Avengers is right here.

  640. See it, what? So there's a gap between To

  641. verse to a inverse to be. Now, if I'm a Jew and I'm

  642. reading this, I don't see the Gap.

  643. Why? Because it's a mystery, it's a

  644. mystery. But a Daniel 9.

  645. Okay? There is a gap.

  646. There is a gap between 69th week and the 70th week because

  647. Messiah has to die SB. Cut off the city has to be

  648. destroyed. But there's nothing mention of

  649. the church because that's a mystery in the Old Testament.

  650. So you go on and you read, Luke chapter 1, Luke chapter 1 and

    Luke 1 chapter mention Luke 1 chapter mention

  651. behold. You will conceive in your womb

  652. and bear a son. And you shall name him Jesus.

  653. He will be great, and be called the son of the most high.

  654. And the Lord, God will give him the Throne of his father David.

  655. See, the gap. Say no, I didn't see the Gap.

  656. Yeah, it's right there. You missed it.

  657. How did you miss it? Talking angel, Gabriel talking

  658. to Mary behold. You will conceive in your womb

  659. and she did Bear, son. She did you call his name,

  660. Jesus? She did.

  661. He will be great. He was, he'll be called, son of

  662. the most high. He was Gap and the Lord.

  663. God will give him the Throne of his father David.

  664. See the Gap. There, the Bible still with

  665. gaps. So when you read Daniel chapter

    Daniel 9 chapter mention

  666. 9, and you see this Gap, that's there, after the 69th.

  667. A week and then there's one week where which is the 70th week

  668. where the Antichrist confirms a covenant with this real for that

  669. period of time which is seven years why it's 77s 70 years of

  670. seven which is 490 years. Well you only have 483 years and

  671. these 69 weeks. So you got seven years left that

  672. takes place in the one week, which we call the tribulation

  673. period. We're in the halfway in between

  674. that tribulation period is you. Combination of desolation.

  675. With the anti-crisis worshipped wants to be honored as king as

  676. God. That's not where it ends got to

  677. read on. So go back to Daniel 9.

  678. It says. even until here's a good news, a complete

  679. destruction. One that is decreed is poured

  680. out on the one who makes desolate.

  681. So there is a decree that's been predetermined.

  682. That the one who makes desolate will be destroyed.

  683. And when does that happen, it happens when the king returns at

  684. the end of the tribulation Revelation chapter 19 And the

    Revelation 19 chapter mention

  685. Beast and the false prophet are bound for a thousand years

  686. before their let loose at the end of those thousand years and

  687. then cast into the Lake of Fire because it has to happen that

  688. way. Because this is when Israel has

  689. the Forgiveness of sins, this is Zachariah chapter 12, their sins

  690. were atoned for Calvary, but they didn't believe that Jesus

  691. was the Messiah. But when they look on him whom

  692. they have pierced, the Eyes that they killed their Messiah and

  693. the repent of their sins will put an end to sin, right?

  694. And he will finish the transgression and then he'll

  695. bring in Everlasting righteousness, he will seal up.

  696. What the vision of Prophecy, what does that mean?

  697. For the last week he puts it into the vision and prophecy.

  698. What are the visions of Prophecy?

  699. The visions of Prophecy, deal with the Judgment upon the

  700. nation of Israel? He brings it into that why there

  701. is no more It's done all his real now is saved.

  702. And with last Point, what's that say right there?

  703. I can't read. I have my glasses on.

  704. See, there you go. See that.

  705. And so, he establishes his kingdom, and he rules and

  706. Reigns. Why?

  707. Because the government must be upon his shoulders, he has to

  708. sit on the throne of his father, David.

  709. When is he going to do? That isn't do it until this

  710. time. During the middle of the

  711. millennial age for a thousand years, we rules and Reigns for

  712. all eternity. See.

  713. We know more. Than Fox News, CNN, MSNBC and

  714. everybody else because we know it.

  715. Daniel 9 says, if we can read the Bible, we know how it all

  716. going to end. Because been very clear.
