“The words in italics were added by the translators, verse 11 reads: ‘And from the time the daily is taken away, and the abomination of desolation is set up, one thousand two hundred and ninety days.’ So 1260+30 days after ‘the daily’ is taken away, the anti-Christ will set up the abomination of desolation, and we know that that is 1260 from the start of Daniel’s 70th week and 1260 days from the end. So what is ‘the daily’ that will be ‘taken away’? Well, it is certainly not the daily sacrifices that the Jews will present in the Third Temple...”
I refuted your misinterpretation of this months ago. If the Tribulation comes in the next several months, we will all go through it or perish in it. Jesus is coming after it but before the Day of the Lord, which follows the Great Tribulation. Those who are counting on escaping by a secret rapture beforehand are much more likely to be among those who “fall away,” “are offended” for Jesus’ sake, or apostatize, as the scriptures warn repeatedly will happen to professing Christians during that time period.
Daniel 8:10-14
And it grew up to the host of heaven; and it cast down some of the host and some of the stars to the ground, and trampled them. He even exalted himself as high as the Prince of the host; and by him the daily sacrifices were taken away, and the place of His sanctuary was cast down. Because of transgression, an army was given over to the horn to oppose the daily sacrifices; and he cast truth down to the ground. He did all this and prospered.
Then I heard a holy one speaking; and another holy one said to that certain one who was speaking, “How long will the vision be, concerning the daily sacrifices and the transgression of desolation, the giving of both the sanctuary and the host to be trampled underfoot?”
And he said to me, “For two thousand three hundred days; then the sanctuary shall be cleansed.”
Daniel 9:27
Then he shall confirm a covenant with many for one week;
But in the middle of the week
He shall bring an end to sacrifice and offering.
And on the wing of abominations shall be one who makes desolate,
Even until the consummation, which is determined,
Is poured out on the desolate.
Daniel 11:31
And forces shall be mustered by him, and they shall defile the sanctuary fortress; then they shall take away the daily sacrifices, and place there the abomination of desolation.
Daniel 12:11
And from the time that the daily sacrifice is taken away, and the abomination of desolation is set up, there shall be one thousand two hundred and ninety days.
Mark 13:14
So when you see the “abomination of desolation,” spoken of by Daniel the prophet, standing where it ought not (let the reader understand), then let those who are in Judea flee to the mountains.
The term “daily” in relation to the temple in Daniel 8, 11, and 12 cited above MUST mean daily sacrifices. You can’t simply decide what you want it to mean in order to make it fit your paradigm. This is something daily done in connection with the temple - the sanctuary of the temple specifically. And the passage in chapter 9 above proves that the abomination of desolation brings about an end to sacrifices. Yes, “sacrifice” is in the original Hebrew. See zebah at http://biblehub.com/interlinear/daniel/9.htm which is ALWAYS translated as sacrifice for ALL 53 times it is used in the Bible.
Further, Jesus said in the above passage from Mark that the abomination will “stand.” It is a thing. And the passage from Daniel 11 above tells us where this thing will be placed: in the sanctuary. The sanctuary will be defiled, ending the daily sacrifice, and replacing it with this thing that will stand there. And how long will the daily sacrifice be taken away? Until the sanctuary is cleansed. See, the abomination in the temple is what takes away the daily sacrifice.
2 Thessalonians 2:3-4
Let no one deceive you by any means; for that Day will not come unless the falling away comes first, and the man of sin is revealed, the son of perdition, who opposes and exalts himself above all that is called God or that is worshiped, so that he sits as God in the temple of God, showing himself that he is God.
The anti-Christ will demand worship from the whole world and exalt himself above all other deities. He will put an end to the daily sacrifice and offerings in the temple.
And finally, we can examine the Hebrew word “daily” to see how it is used elsewhere in scripture. Daily (hattamid) is used 24 times: http://biblehub.com/hebrew/hattamid_8548.htm . How many times does the word refer to daily sacrifices? Take a guess. ALL OF THEM! Bread, grain, oil, drink, meat, showbread are all connected throughout Numbers and Nehemiah where the word is used in addition to Daniel.
The word “daily” in the Daniel passages, like all other places in the Bible, is ALWAYS used of the daily or continual sacrifice in the holy place. It is NEVER used to refer to something else.
It is foolish and dangerous to twist these prophetic scriptures to fit your own ideas. Doing so brings destruction:
2 Peter 3:13-16
Nevertheless we, according to His promise, look for new heavens and a new earth in which righteousness dwells.
Therefore, beloved, looking forward to these things, be diligent to be found by Him in peace, without spot and blameless; and consider that the longsuffering of our Lord is salvation-as also our beloved brother Paul, according to the wisdom given to him, has written to you, as also in all his epistles, speaking in them of these things, in which are some things hard to understand, which untaught and unstable people twist to their own destruction, as they do also the rest of the Scriptures.
Your date setting is as flawed as your misinterpretation of the reference to “daily” in Daniel. And I strongly encourage you to avail yourself of this Biblical correction and humble yourself under God’s mighty hand NOW, rather than in October when it will be much more humiliating for you, those who have misled you, and those you have misled.
Did you listen to those 18 minutes of broadcast? What did you think of that Pastor Billy Crone's tone and debate points? Am I wrong that he was acting in a very prideful and condescending manner?
Was he even correct in the facts and on the points he was making?
Apparently, I am not the only one who thought that their treatment of this subject was inconsistent and out of character with their usual high standard of programming.

Vi White - This is the first verse of Revelation. How can Pastor Billy say that Rev. 12 is something that has already happened? John states that this is something that WILL take place.

Rhonda Ross Jamison Wow... simply wow. Read Psalm 19!! It speaks of the heavens declaring the GLORY of the Lord... as a BRIDEGROOM COMING OUT OF HIS CHAMBER... as the sun completes its CIRCUIT!! Let's put this in astronomical terms... The Sun completes it's CIRCUIT of the Vernal Equinox this Fall - it completes in 6,000 years!! And don't forget Job 38!! Can YOU loosen Orion's belt?? Can YOU order the Mazorath?? I guess it takes the simple to confound the wise. These SIGNS are astronomically and mathematically PERFECT. The SIGNS are for us to take serious note... God said in Gen. 1:14 that the sun, moon and stars would be for SIGNS and Appointed Times. THIS sign... Is so extremely specific... And EVERYTHING about it ONLY happens ONCE IN 7 thousand years!! Christ didn't speak of His coming as imminent... He spoke in a Jewish IDIOM... Speaking DIRECTLY of the Feast of Trumpets ... An Appointed Time!! The Hidden Day and the Wedding Feast. Apostle Paul also referenced this Feast when he specifically said "at THE Last Trump". Most Bible teachers today have NO CLUE, save for a few, about the Prophetic significance and Timeline of the Lord's Feast Days. The Blood Moons were VERY timely... They were the 3rd in the series - God confirms His message in 3's!!! He used them to make the WORLD LOOK UP and TAKE SERIOUS NOTE!!! Now this astounding CELESTIAL convergence is being overlooked???? It baffles me!!! http://www.unsealed.org/.../the-revelation-12-sign...

Dean Hanson I listen to Jan's show almost every week. This week was a sandbagged program with a narrative to debunk anything and everything of "signs in the sky/heaven" The over enthustiatic agreement with her guest was over the top. Scott Clarke (the fore runner of Youtube videos on Rev. 12) does not leave out certain verses of Rev. 12 . to make his point. He also clearly states that he is not setting a date for the rapture. About this Rev. 12 sign happening every approx. 11 years is highly misleading! It has not happened to the exact fulfillment as Rev. 12 describes in approx. 7k years. Yes some of the planets, also known as stars back in O.T. and early N.T. times, as well as some stars have come close...but no cigar! As far as immenicy, could also mean the exact hour or day that they see the moon for the Jewish feast day??

April Horne I love your show Jan but Please take some time to really look into Scottie Clarke's videos. He is absolutely not teaching astrology. This is a very specific and rare sign in the constellation Virgo and it falls on 9/23/17. Scottie isn't saying that's the rapture date. There may be some 'teachers' out there that have latched onto what Scottie discovered (this heavenly sign on this particular date) and are giving incorrect and incomplete info about this. Thank you for your ministry

Patti Gilliam If Revelation 12 has already taken place, and if the woman it refers to is Israel...when did THIS happen: "Then the woman fled into the wilderness, where she has a place prepared by God, that they should feed her there one thousand two hundred and sixty days (or 3-1/2 years)." Revelation 12:6?
