Daniel 9A – 70 Weeks/Sevens
Daniel had obtained and been reading a copy of Jeremiah’s prediction concerning the length of the captivity of Israel/Judah once captured by Babylon’s Nebuchadnezzar. Because of his study, Daniel understood the 70 years to be a literal 70-year period. Since the end of that 70 years was approaching, Daniel began to pray.
What Does the Plus Mean?
Isn’t it weird that in many ways, it all comes down to depraved sex and sexuality? What God created for a husband and wife to enjoy within marriage has been so stretched into something else entirely by Satan that too many do not even bat an eye anymore. People actually expect and have gotten used to all the perversions in society. Why? Well, apparently, God wants us to be “happy” and because of that, nothing is off-limits.
All About the Great Upheaval
Interestingly, Bossche also notes that he “…learned that the virus had to slow down its spread and is now awaiting rising temperatures to be able to select a highly virulent lineage!” Originally, he thought that later in the fall new variants with severe virulence would visit society but now he believes it’ll happen much sooner, as temperatures begin to rise due to the coming months of summer.
The War on Our Brains
But Nehls doesn’t end with this, simply giving us information that is true while leaving us in a state of despair. There are things we can do and he outlines those things, which includes what he calls the Hippocampal Anti-Indoctrination Formula…
Daniel 8B Antiochus and Antichrist
Most conservative Bible scholars believe verses 20-22 have been completely fulfilled in history. The sticking points of disagreement occur with verse 23 and following. In my opinion, verses 23-25 could represent a near/far view. The near fulfillment sees Antiochus IV as the historical persecutor as in vv 9-14 (MacArthur). Antiochus as king in 164 BC was “in the latter period of their rule.” Rome conquered Greece in 146 BC and Antiochus died “broken without human agency” from insanity and disease of the bowels.
Fear-induced Neuroinflammation
In order to create a compliant society, one fit for the governance of the coming self-worshiping Antichrist, the world must be prepared in their minds and outlook. Their thinking must be adulterated and changed so that they will comply to messaging presented fearfully. Revelation 13 tells us that one day, a true son of Satan will step up to rule over the entire world in the final human-led global kingdom. During that time, he will cause everyone to take a mark on their hand or forehead that promises allegiance to him and allows them to buy and sell. In other words, by their visible outward sign of allegiance, people will be able to participate in society. Those who do not take the mark will become marked in another way by becoming the hunted. Those who do take the mark (just like those who took the jab), will call for the government to come down on those who do not participate in taking that mark.
Satan’s Insanity, Pt 2
Globalists have the same exact mental condition as Satan. In his book, Ancient Paganism, by Ken Johnson, we noted that Lucifer (Satan before his fall), became literally insane. Satan thought of and fully embraced the idea that when God creates people, He imparts part of His spirit to them, literally giving away part of Himself. Because of this, Satan believes God is no longer 100% God anymore, but at this point, maybe 45-47% God or less, while totally, all the people living on the earth may actually be more God together than God is now. Johnson says this is what is called the Doctrine of Emanations.
Satan’s Insanity, Pt 1
Lucifer’s arrogance led to self-deceit. He fell through sin and became Satan. His fate is certain and his time is short although it is possible he’s insane enough to believe he will eventually gain what he seeks. It is not unreasonable to understand that those who choose the same path as Satan will also become self-deceived like him in their thinking and outlook. As Satan wanted to replace God with himself, so too do those who follow Satan in his insanity begin seeing themselves as God.
Daniel 8A Ram and Goat
Antiochus IV was the 8th king of the Seleucid dynasty and he ruled as king from 175 to 164 BC (1 Macc 1:10; 6; 16). He conducted military campaigns in all those directions. Here in Daniel 8, the vision begins to focus on future Israel and the Jews. In fact, much of this vision is future to Daniel, but the second half of the chapter is still yet future from our perspective. Antiochus was especially vengeful against the Jews whom he persecuted brutally (Constable) and Whitcomb notes he was one of Israel’s worst persecutors ever.
Order of Future Events
It is obvious to me that the presence of the Church in this world (the invisible true Church), acts as a dam against things becoming exceedingly bad in this world all over as they will during the Tribulation. It also seems to be clear that until the Holy Spirit is out of the way (meaning no longer operating through the present Church), the Antichrist cannot be revealed. The Church effectively blocks the Antichrist from being revealed. That’s how I understand it and I realize there are many who disagree with me on that.
