I am disputing the accuracy of your interpretation of Daniel.
Daniel is doing fine IMO.
.
I just read the stuff in black and white and compare it with other prophecies in both old and new testaments. So when Daniel says the evil one makes a “covenant” in one translation with Israel...I’m not saying he is making a covenant the way GOD would make a covenant.
Matthew 24 has Jesus speaking of the abomination of desolation being set up “as spoken of in Daniel”. Daniel says it happens at 3.5 years after the peace pact then the evil one breaks that pact. In Revelation at 3.5 years into the tribulation, the beast over comes the 2 witnesses and kills them(they stay dead for 3 days and 3 nights). The Beast then proceeds to sit in the temple as though he was God and proclaims himself as God(Revelation 11)...becoming the very LIVING embodiment of the Abomination of Desolation as spoken of in Daniel. Thus you understand where I got my personal interpretation of Daniel...juxtaposed with Revelation and Matthew 24. At some point the 7th trumpet sounds and there is “silence in heaven for 1/2hour”. Some teachings suggest that’s when the saints have been taken up and preps are being made for the final showdown with Satan...then again maybe not!
{Is it literally 1/2 hour or are we to understand 1/2 hour in the same way we understand the tribulation as being that final week of years or 7 years? Asuuming that was the case then 1 day=1year....0.5 days=6 months or 12 hours=6 months; then 1hour== 14-15 days roughly; then 1/2 hour=approximately 7 days. That is if we think of 1/2 hour in the same way we think of a day as being 1 year}
In any event my understanding of the Evil one of Daniel comes about thru reading Daniel, Reading Matthew 24 and Reading Revelation and overlaying what each has to say. If you think such understanding has no basis...then show me your views.
The important thing is...’Now is the accepted time for Salvation”...Israel is a nation and thus we know we are living in that latter of latter days. Standards are falling away as the “general spirit of AntiChrist” has already gone out into the world...and soon trumpets will start blowing.
Job for-saw his eventual salvation by “his Redeemer” and resurrection proclaiming “Job 19:25For I know that my redeemer liveth, and that he shall stand at the latter day upon the earth:
26And though after my skin worms destroy this body, yet in my flesh shall I see God:
27Whom I shall see for myself, and mine eyes shall behold, and not another; though my reins be consumed within me.
