You are being devious to th point of lying. I did not say Jesus Christ caused the Temple to be an abomination. I said that after the Sacrifice of Jesus Christ the bloody offerings in the Temple by the wicked, and the High priest Caiaphas, who instigated the murder of Jesus Christ was a wicked man, was an abomination. You are so smart answer this: Why did GOD allow Rome to destroy the Temple? And just so people will know what I said I repeat myself:
Here is what you said:
"The 'He' of Dan.9:27 is not a Roman but Christ."
Now let me quote you that verse in another translation and you show me how any part of it refers to Christ:
(CEV) For one week this foreigner will make a firm agreement with many people, and halfway through this week, he will end all sacrifices and offerings. Then the "Horrible Thing" that causes destruction will be put there. And it will stay there until the time God has decided to destroy this one who destroys.
Is Christ a foreigner--ever? No.
This foreigner will make an agreement with many people. That is not what Christ did.
Half way through the week-- 3 1/2 years into that week he puts an end to all sacrifices. How? By desecrating the Temple. Jesus refers to that in the gospels.
Here the same person is also called "the Horrible Thing."
He causes destruction--in the Temple which desecrates it.
That destruction and desecration will stay there until the end of The Tribulation until the Lord Comes and destroys the Antichrist in the brightness of His Coming. This is at the end of the Tribulation at the coming of Christ.
How is it blasphemous, because it disputes the pre-trib mantra of "what about Daniel's 70th week"? Dr. Bob said the use of "blasphemous" was forbidden on this forum. i suppose that applies only to the non Rapture Ready folks!
It is blasphemous because you said the "he" of 9:27 is Christ, who is also called "that Horrible Thing." Read the verse in some other translations to get an understanding of the passage.
Scripture does not say Jesus Christ was murdered at the end of 69 weeks but AFTER 69 weeks!
The time is very precise. Many scholars have debated this. 483 years. They have been able to calculate the time from the decree of Cyrus to the death of Christ. It is a remarkable prophesy. You should read "The Coming Prince" by Sir Robert Anderson.
Verse 9:25 states:
Know therefore and understand, that from the going forth of the commandment to restore and to build Jerusalem unto the Messiah the Prince shall be seven weeks, and threescore and two weeks: the street shall be built again, and the wall, even in troublous times.
According to the above it is 69 weeks until Messiah the Prince. That cannot mean that it will be 69 weeks until HE is murdered but 69 weeks until HE starts HIS ministry of 3.5 years which means Jesus Christ was murdered by the Jews in the middle of the 70th week!
You can twist Scripture all you want, even shuffle your feet a lot, but the 70th week of Daniel was finished almost 2000 years ago.[/QUOTE]
Here are some facts:
A decree of Artaxerxes to Nehemiah went forth in 444 B.C. (Neh.2:1-8).
This decree specifically is concerned with the rebuilding of the city. The decree was given in the 20th year of Artaxerxes in the 9th month of Nisan, or March-April, 444 B.C. From this date to the Messiah will transpire a period of
seven weeks, and threescore and two weeks, or 483 years. There are two periods here: 7 plus 62 and they run consecutively. This is verse 25.
In verse 26:
After threescore and two weeks shall Messiah be cut off: This phrase assumes that the first seven weeks have already transpired, and thus the entire 483 years. That is 69 weeks. But the 70th week has not come yet. There is a gap. This is indicated by the statement that the Messiah will be cut off after the 69 weeks.
In Jewish prophetic time a "year" was based on 360 days, as a month was 30 days. The same calculations are used in Revelation: 42 months 3 1/2 years 1260 days are all based on 30 day months.
The Messiah was cut off, that is crucified which occurred between 29-33 A.D., depending on whose calculations or calendar you use. If we go by the one I am currently reading it is April, 33 A.D. The 69th week ended just prior to this, probably at his triumphal entry. If so that would make exactly 483 years from the time of Artaxerxes decree or 69 weeks.
Remember that this is a prophecy for Israel, spoken to Israel.
The 70th week is yet to come. It is a seven year period of tribulation often spoken of in the OT.
"The prince that shall come" is the little horn of 7:8. He is elsewhere known as the Antichrist. The present verse states that the "people of the prince," and not the prince himself will destroy the city. That part was fulfilled in 70 A.D. But the "prince," the reference to the Antichrist yet to come has not come yet.
