The 70 week prophecy of Daniel has the Messiah being “cut off,” meaning killed, BEFORE the fall of Jerusalem IN 70 AD...when both the city and the sanctuary (the temple) were destroyed.
Yet most of these posters on this thread, many of them Noahides, must have a different Messiah than Jesus - who was “cut off” (crucified) before the fall of Jerusalem in 70 AD!
The true Messiah WAS killed (crucified) before the fall of Jerusalem in 70 AD. AND according to the New Testament resurrected the third day, to ascend to heaven where he is at the right hand awaiting all his enemies to be put under his feet.
Which means, since these posters on this thread do NOT believe it was Jesus who fulfilled “the Messiah” in Dan. 9:25,26, the Messiah they ARE looking for will be the false one, the antichrist.
“Know therefore and understand, that from the going forth of the commandment to restore and to build Jerusalem unto THE MESSIAH the Prince shall be seven weeks, and threescore and two weeks...And after threescore and two weeks shall MESSIAH BE CUT OFF, but not for himself, and the people of the prince that shall come shall destroy the city and the sanctuary; and the end thereof shall be with a flood, and unto the end of the war desolations are determined.” Dan. 9:25,26.
The apostle Peter preached this at Pentecost:
Acts 2:29 Men and brethren, let me freely speak unto you of the patriarch David, that he is both dead and buried, and his sepulchre is with us unto this day.
30 Therefore being a prophet, and knowing that God had sworn with an oath to him, that of the fruit of his loins, according to the flesh, he would raise up Christ to sit on his throne;
31 He seeing this before spake of the resurrection of Christ, that his soul was not left in hell, neither his flesh did see corruption.
32 This Jesus hath God raised up, whereof we all are witnesses.
33 Therefore being by the right hand of God exalted, and having received of the Father the promise of the Holy Ghost, he hath shed forth this, which ye now see and hear.
34 For David is not ascended into the heavens: but he saith himself, The LORD said unto my Lord, Sit thou on my right hand,
35 Until I make thy foes thy footstool.
36 Therefore let all the house of Israel know assuredly, that God hath made that same Jesus, whom ye have crucified, both Lord and Christ.
I think there’s wonderful interaction taking place here. When the Jews and Noahides pipe up it’s much more traffic than the Pastor usually gets. BZ!
You can’t prove a thing with the NT in this arena though. Show us your OT proofs and we’ll show you the mistranslation, out-of-context quote, or blatant lie behind it.
Correct. The book of Daniels explicitly ends with the destruction of Jerusalem, with the abomination in the temple and then Jerusalem rendered stone from stone.
Jesus warned the High Priests that they would see His “coming to the Father on clouds in glory” - as in the book of Daniel where the Son of Man is coming TO the Throne of the Ancient of Days. And the High Priests had ample time to regret their rejection of their Messiah
