Prophecies of Daniel: Why they point to us [Hal Lindsey alert!]
WorldNet Daily ^ | August 24, 2007 | Hal Lindsey

EXCERPTED:

The prophecies of Daniel were indeed "sealed" for centuries following the Reformation. The early Reformation leaders like Luther and Calvin gave Daniel little attention, pronouncing both Daniel and Revelation either symbolic or allegorical.

But in this generation, the prophecies of both books are unsealed. Daniel's vision of a global government headed by a prince of a revived Roman Empire is all but fulfilled in this generation.

For the first time in 1,600 years, there exists a modern version of the old Roman Empire, although, as Daniel predicted, "partly strong and partly weak," compared to the iron of Imperial Rome.

There exists, for the first time since before the prophet Daniel was born, a geopolitical entity called "Israel." Neither existed until this generation. Israel was reborn in 1948. The Benelux Treaty that kicked off the unification of Europe was signed in 1948.

Looks like Hal Lindsey has gone back on his recent revisions, and is again saying that we're living in the last generation.

I wonder if this mountebank supports the Biblical prescription for how to deal with false prophets.

It's a superior strategy for sweeping up widows' mites.

I can’t imagine why some people won’t take Dispensationalism seriously.

That’s Armageddon?!?!?

I don’t believe that you failed to credit the esteemed filmmaker ‘Samuel L. Bronkowitz’ who brought us that other unforgettable film, ‘A Fistful of Yen’.

For shame, disrespecting Sam like that. ;)

PS - And Henry Gibson would appreciate a brief acknowledgement for the ‘United Appeal for the Dead’, ok?

Which generation is that, Hal?
