“When ye therefore shall see the abomination of desolation, spoken of by Daniel the prophet, stand in the holy place, whoso readeth, let him understand”

Did Jesus say anything about a “rebuilt” holy place?

And speaking of Daniel:

Daniel 8:26: “The vision of the evenings and mornings that has been given you is true, but seal up the vision, for it concerns the DISTANT FUTURE.”

Revelation 22:10: Then he told me, “Do not seal up the words of the prophecy of this book, because the time is NEAR.”

Same prophecy, different instructions. Why was John told NOT to seal up the prophecy when Daniel was told to seal it up?

Because for John the time actually was “near” (70 AD). Again, God destroyed the temple because Christ is the true Lamb of God and the true Temple.

Good point. Of course, being a noble Berean and interpreting Scripture with Scripture is a much different process than relying on the Jerusalem Times for your eschatology.

= = =

That is one of the most absurd manglings of Scripture that I know of.

There are a list of END TIMES PROPHECIES THAT COULD NOT POSSIBLY have occurred from Christ’s Crucifixion until the rebirth of Israel in 1948.

To pretend that AD70 found the fulfillment of all of them is an incredible mind bogglingly obtuse example of selective perception that has raced off the cliff at the speed of light without even slightly looking back at the craziness of it all.

Sheesh.

Incredible.

You mean

near

as in a thousand years is as a day

near?

Those verses present no challenging problem at all to my construction on Scriptural prophetic realities.

I’ve heard that rubber Bibles don’t clarify them, however.
