"Seventy weeks have been decreed for your people and your holy city, to finish the transgression, to make an end of sin, to make atonement for iniquity, to bring in everlasting righteousness, to seal up vision and prophecy and to anoint the most holy place."
*within 70 years from may 14th 1948 Israel will have an everlasting righteousness set up, and the Holy place, meaning the Holy Temple is to be rebuilt.
Daniel 9:25
"So you are to know and discern that from the issuing of a decree to restore and rebuild Jerusalem until Messiah the Prince there will be seven weeks and sixty-two weeks; it will be built again, with plaza and moat, even in times of distress."
*7 weeks has been said to be the 7 years of the Tribulation.
By default 62 weeks can then be 62 years.
Simple math: 62 years added to May 14th 1948 (when Isreal became a nation). 62+1948=2010 year of the Rapture.
now add 7 years to 2010 and you get 2017.
In the book of Daniel 9:25, we are told when Isreal becomes a nation to when the Messiah returns!
Matthew 24:36
"But of that day and hour knoweth no man, no, not the angels of heaven, but my Father only."
* I will point out that no man knows the day or the hour, but it doesnt say the year!! Which means its very likely the Tribulation starts sometime this year!
Daniel 9:26
"Then after the sixty-two weeks the Messiah will be cut off and have nothing, and the people of the prince who is to come will destroy the city and the sanctuary. And its end will come with a flood; even to the end there will be war; desolations are determined."
* Here is possibly the 62 years which takes us to the Tribulation. Infact During the Tribulation is Satans time, the Lord Jesus will return at the end to set up his kingdom!
My conclusion: The Tribulation can begin any day, any hour this year. And this isn't just my own thoughts but backed by Daniel 9:25-26
In case of a Rapture I ask all to be Rapture ready! I ask that you take this verses seriously and walk a righteous path, and confess your sins, let us be ready!
Daniel 9:27 warns us about the Anti-christ during this 7 year period.
"And he will make a firm covenant with the many for one week, but in the middle of the week he will put a stop to sacrifice and grain offering; and on the wing of abominations will come one who makes desolate, even until a complete destruction, one that is decreed, is poured out on the one who makes
desolate."
