Time of the End

"And this gospel of kingdom will be preached throughout the whole world, as a testimony to all nations; and then the end will come."

This happened in mid nineteenth century. 

O my Lord, what shall be the end of these things? Dan. 12:8

God replies:

Go thy way, Daniel: for the words are closed up and sealed till the time of the end. 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. Dan. 12:9-10

And when ye shall hear of wars and rumors of wars, be ye not troubled: for such things must needs be; but the end shall not be yet....
And the gospel must first be published among all nations
. Mark 13:7-10

Gospel was published among all nations about one and half centuries ago.

And as we sat upon the mount of Olives, the disciples came unto Him ( Jesus) privately, saying, Tell us, when shall these things be?'' And what shall be the sign of thy coming?..... And this gospel of the kingdom shall be preached in all the world for a witness unto all nations; and then shall the end come.

 

 

"When ye therefore shall see the abomination of desolation, spoken by Daniel the prophet, stand in the holy place, ( whose readeth, let him understand.)'' Matthew 24-3 to 15    

In the book of Daniel, chapter 12 verse 11, there is a reference to the Abomination of Desolation.
The Abomination of Desolation or the abominating actions, which caused the desolation of Israel, resulted in the conquest of Israel by a succession of foreign, non-Jewish empires.

This desolation was foretold by Moses in Leviticus 26-24 Moses warned, "if you will not hearken unto me, and will not do all these commandments... I will chastise you seven times for your sins... I will make your cities waste... I will scatter you among the heathen."

 

This warning took effect for the first time about 676 BC during the reign of the evil Hebrew king Manasseh. He was the first Hebrew king who challenged the religion of Moses and, replaced it with local pagan cults inside the Temple of Solomon where idols were worshiped and sacrifices were offered to pagan gods.

Among other abominations, Manasseh was also said to have allowed ritual prostitution to be practiced inside the Holy Temple.

 

Moses' prophecy quickly took effect when the Assyrians swept down from the north, conquered Jerusalem and King Manasseh himself was carried off in chains to Babylon. This was the beginning of the seven times era of subjugation foretold by Moses.


After the Assyrians, Israel was next conquered successively by the Babylonian Empire, the Persian Empire and the Greek Empire. In his book, the prophet Daniel refers to these foreign empires as beasts.

In Daniel 8:13 it asks how long will this abomination process last. Daniel answered that it would last for 2300 days

Before we can explain this 2300-day prophecy there are a couple of important principles that we first must understand. First, in Bible prophecy, days can equal years.

(See Ezekiel 4 and Numbers 14. “.... I have appointed you each day for a year “.)

One good example of how this process works can be found in Daniel 9:24. Here Daniel says that 70 weeks are appointed from the giving of the decree to rebuild Jerusalem then shall Messiah be cut off.

Lets do the math . . . ( 70 weeks) x ( 7 days in a week ) = 490 days. According to the statements found in Ezekiel and Numbers . . . 490 days can equal 490 years.

 Now check the history. . . the decree to rebuild Jerusalem was given by a Persian king named Artaxerxes in 457 BC. If you add 490 years to 457 BC, you get the cutting off of the Messiah somewhere around 33 or 34 AD.

This prophecy foretold the atoning death of Jesus. It also proves that days are equal years in Bible prophecy.

How does this relate to the 2300 days prophecy? If we use the same starting point of 457 BC and count forward 2300 years. . . we get both the year of the end of the Abomination of Desolation and we get the year of Christ's return. (- 457 BC + 2300 years) = 1844. The 2300 day/year prophecy indicates the year 1844 AD. ( The year The Bab declared His mission 1844.)

Referring back to the Leviticus 26 prophecy again we see that Moses said that this 'Abomination' and 'scattering among the Gentiles' time period would last for seven times. 7 Times or seven years of 360 days in a year 7 x 360= 2520 days or 2520 years.

Moses' prophecy first took effect in 676 BC when King Manasseh was taken in chains to Babylon. ( - 676 BC + 2520 )=   1844 Again the same year as the 2300 day/year prophecy given by Daniel.

 

In the Book of Revelation. in the 11th, 12th & 13th chapters, we are told seven separate times that John's last beast will control Jerusalem for 1260 years.

This prophecy is stated as 3 and 1/2 years = ( 3.5 x 360 ) = also 1260 days . . . Again the same date but this time in Moslem calendar = 1844 AD

also ( 42 months) = ( 42 x 30 days ) = 1260 days and as 1260 days itself. The Jewish Prophet Daniel also refers to the 3 1/2 'times of the beast' in Daniel 12:7 & 7:25. Again same date

In Rev 12: 6 St-John clearly shows us that 1260 days actually does equal 3 1/2 times. First he says that the beast will tread Jerusalem underfoot for 1260 days. Then, a few verses later, St-John also informs us that the beast will tread Jerusalem underfoot for a time period of 3 1/2 times. Clearly, according to St-John, 1260 days equals 3 1/2 times.

The number 1260 is also repeatedly referred to in the Islamic religion as the time when the messiah will appear.

What's fascinating about these '1260' prophecies is that the year 1260 AH of the Islamic calendar just happens to also be the exact same year 1844 AD of the Christian calendar.

Can you see what this means? The '7-times' prophecy of Moses, the '2300 day/year' 'Abomination of Desolation' prophecy of Daniel (referred to by Jesus) all indicate the exact same year . . . the year 1844 AD.

Shrine of the Bab In Haifa Israel:

 The 'Abomination of Desolation' ended in 1844 when the Edict of Toleration was signed by the Caliph of Islam allowing the Jews to return to Israel ending the 'times of the gentiles.'

And even more importantly . . .

This was when the Baha'i Faith began. On May 23rd, 1844 the young 'Bab', the forerunner of Baha'u'llah, announced to his first disciple that he was the Promised One. The Christ presence had returned as a thief in the night with a new name just as foretold in the old and New Testament.

MILLER'S CALCULATION

In May 1832 the people of the eastern states of America were thrown into an escalating wave of panic by the predictions of the Endtime prophet William Miller.

Miller, a wealthy farmer and a Baptist preacher, discovered the date ordained by the Divine for the Second Coming and the beginning of the Millennium, a date which he believed was encrypted in the Bible.

Within a short time he had attracted a 50,000-strong following drawn from many denominations, each impressed by his sincerity.  They took the name Millerites.

While the Millerites. Prepared themselves with prayer and pious deeds, the public panicked. 

America was gripped by Endtime fever. 

Miller had originally given April 1843, March and at last 22nd October 1844 as the day of Christ's descent, but the month passed without incident in USA

The date is still referred to as 'the Great Disappointment' by Seventh-Day Adventists, the sect that succeeded the Millerites.

His remaining handful of followers were undeterred.   They comforted themselves with the though that the Second coming may well have occurred, but on the plane of the spirit rather than in the world of matter.

They were right about the date but forgot the new name new Heaven and the new Jerusalem!
