Re: All prophecies the bible says will happen in End Times are happening or almost complete at present
I don't know about many of you who quote scripture, but I feel obligated to read at least 5 different translations of any thing I read. So many verses (more-so than chapters) can mean nearly opposite things if you take the time to actually study.

Anyways, I was looking into Daniel 9. I've never looked into the International Children's Bible before today. A few things stuck out to me.

Daniel 9:2 - During Darius’ first year as king, I, Daniel, was reading the Scriptures. In them I saw what the Lord told Jeremiah. He said Jerusalem would be an empty desert for 70 years.

It's an interesting read, but I'm skipping ahead to 24-27:

24 “God has ordered 490 years for your people and your holy city. These years are ordered for these reasons: to stop people from turning against God; to put an end to sin; to take away evil; to bring in goodness that continues forever; to make the vision and prophecy come true; and to appoint a most holy place.

25 “Learn and understand these things. A command will come to rebuild Jerusalem. The time from this command until the appointed leader comes will be 49 years and 434 years. Jerusalem will be rebuilt with streets and a trench around it. But it will be built in times of trouble. 26 After the 434 years the appointed leader will be killed. He will have nothing. The people of the leader who is to come will destroy the city. They will also destroy the holy place. That end will come like a flood. War will continue until the end. God has ordered that place to be completely destroyed. 27 That leader will make an agreement with many people for 7 years. He will put a stop to offerings and sacrifices after 3½ years. And the horrible thing that destroys will be placed on the highest point of the Temple. But God has ordered him to be destroyed!”


So, like most scripture, things like "the time from this command until the appointed leader comes will be 49 years and 434 years. Are these 2 separate arrivals? Or adding them to 483?

I'll try not to go full numeritard here, but 490 years from 2018 takes us to 1528, while 483 to 1535.

On January 22, 1528 on the Julian calendar (I honestly don't know which to use, Greg or Jul calendar) England and France declare war on Emperor Charles V. I see no mention of this on wikipedia, while they do show the October 20 Treaty of Gorinchem signed between Charles V, Holy Roman Emperor, and Charles, Duke of Guelders.

Wikipedia says this about the treaty:

The Treaty of Gorinchem was signed in Gorinchem on 20 October 1528 between Holy Roman Emperor Charles V and Duke Charles of Guelders during the Guelders Wars.

Based on the terms of the accord, the Emperor acknowledged Duke Charles' control of Guelders, Groningen, and Drente, but as fiefdoms of the Emperor. Duke Charles agreed to name Emperor Charles as his successor.
The treaty was broken in 1534 when Duke Charles nominated King Francis I of France as his successor.

Just under 7 years. But I think I have reached that point where I have realized there is a lot more context to try to point out the pattern. And converting back and forth between Julian and Gregorian is time-consuming.

Can I hand off the torch to someone, if it was ever lit?

Unfortunately, you are quite right about all the interpretations of even one verse or chapter.

There will come a time - when we will receive interpretations from the angels themselves thru the 144,000 witnesses. (Rev 14:4-6) Boy will we be surprised... :)

They used to come for you in the middle of the night

This phrase from Micah 7:12

In that day....

tells us what we may have here is a duality of purpose.

Something that happens today - can be repeated in the future.

Much of Micah 7 appears to be just that - a duality of purpose.
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 75683877


This author addresses the book of Micah in it's entirety:

I'm going to take some excerpts from Micah 7:11 on:

Micah 7:11

The day for … extending your boundaries will come

---

11 In the day that thy walls are to be built, in that day shall the decree be far removed
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 76624441


What happens to the Israelis past and present will be entirely of their own doing:

Micah 7:12 In that day also he shall come even to thee from Assyria, and from the fortified cities, and from the fortress even to the river, and from sea to sea, and from mountain to mountain.

13 Notwithstanding the land shall be desolate because of them that dwell therein, for the fruit of their doings.
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 76637561


“As in the days when you came out of Egypt, I will show them My wonders” (Micah 7:15)

God promises that, in the day when He brings back Israel to their Promised Land and stretches forth His mighty arm to defeat all anti-Semitic and anti-Messiah nations, He will again demonstrate signs and wonders on the level of what He did in the Book of Exodus, in the days of Moses and Pharaoh.

The final redemption of Israel will be more dramatic and awe-inspiring than even Cecil B. DeMille’s famous movie “The Ten Commandments”. Paraphrasing John 14:12, we who live to see this day will see miracles greater than those that Moses saw, even as the two witnesses of Revelation 11:6 will do greater miracles than Moses and Elijah combined....

 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 69999830


I hope this article answers your question

Small excerpt:

The daughters proceed to get their father Lot drunk with wine then have sex with him. They do such a good job at getting their father inebriated that he does not know what they are doing to him (verses 33, 35). The two women become pregnant and eventually give birth to boys named Moab (father of the Moabites tribe) and Benammi (father of the Ammonites).

Factors that led to decision

Before the incestuous events with the daughters occurred, the family experienced some awesome and heartbreaking events in a very short period. They had to run from Sodom in order to save themselves. They then saw the aftermath of Sodom and Gomorrah TOTALLY destroyed and wiped completely from the face of the earth. Then, not only is Lot's wife turned into salt, they must flee yet again out of fear and end up living in a cave. Would any of us not feel a bit distressed, uptight, confused, and afraid of what might happen next if we saw and experienced what they did?...

On the surface, the desire of Lot's daughters to continue the human race after Sodom and Gomorrah is certainly noble. Their behavior, however, was based far more on their skewed thinking brought on by fear and panic than anything else. As for the father, he sinned willingly, but not willfully. He succumbed to human nature and put himself in a compromising situation that led him to do that which he normally would not. In the final analysis, based on 2Peter 2:4 - 9, God ultimately forgave him for his errors....

Here's it again:

Habakkuk prays to God just as Micah did - and asks why is God not hearing him and answering his prayer...

Habakkuk 1:1 O Lord, how long shall I cry, and thou wilt not hear! even cry out unto thee of violence
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 76654970


Habakkuk continues with his grievances:

4 Therefore the law is slacked, and judgment doth never go forth

And Micah tells us the judges are corrupt:

There are many similarities in both books - however, it's clear Micah has many references to end time prophecies and Habakkuk has only one:

Habakkuk 2:14 For the earth shall be filled with the knowledge of the glory of the Lord, as the waters cover the sea.

It's the exact same verse found in Isaiah 11- which mostly describes the millennial reign of Jesus:

Re: All prophecies the bible says will happen in End Times are happening or almost complete at present
Events are moving so quickly in bible prophecy that I decided to do an update of:

Thread: All prophecies the bible says will happen in End Times are happening or almost completed at present

The bible tells us end times will start slowly and accelerate (like birth pangs) - that's what's happening today with disease, worldwide economic collapse, war, disasters, fukushima.

These are some end time events listed in bible that are true today:

Nation will rise against nation, kingdom against kingdom. There will be great earthquakes, disease and famine in diverse places. Mathew 24 and 1-4 seals of Revelation 6.

We have a global economy; the gov't can track everyone and the mark of the beast is ready.

The image of the beast that will move and speak can be transmitted to everyone's home.Rev. 13:14-15 - ALL on this earth will worship the image of the beast....

Political correctness has gone completely insane - people get fired for smallest infraction,
or utterance. Bible refers to this as many will be offended (Mathew 24:10)

Evil and perversity rules - especially on the internet. (Mathew 24:12)

There is a RISE IN SPIRITUALISM doctrines of the devils.1 Timothy 4:1 ...'Now the Spirit speaketh expressly, that in the latter times some shall depart from the faith, giving heed to seducing spirits, and doctrines of devils.'

Jesus said we would see earthquakes in diverse places(Mathew 24:7) . Why would Jesus say this or why should we even care? Because the generation that SEEs earthquakes in diverse places is the generation that will see all prophecy fulfilled.

We ARE the only generation to ever have this capability.

How can we SEE earthquakes in diverse places? Well, here's an example:

[link to ds.iris.edu]

He also says we will see nation rise against nation, kingdom against kingdom. Once again - we are the only generation to ever have this capability with live streaming.

How do I know it is literally SEEing.

Because Jesus in Luke 21 and in Mathew 24 tell us.

Luke 21 - To paraphrase Jesus in parable of the fig tree where he says - "when you see the trees sprout buds you know summer is near. LIKEWISE (same thing applies here) - when you SEE ALL these things.... i.e. earthquakes in diverse place; nation against nation...THIS is the generation will see all prophecies fulfilled".

See more here:

Thread: Prophecies Jesus gave in Mathew 24 and Revevelation require internet and smartphone

Major events leading to fulfilled prophecy are happening in the middle east. 2 young jewish boys were given visions and dreams concerning these major events; both confirming we are essentially witnessing the Gog Magog war of Ezekiel 38, in the middle east today.

[link to jewishandchristiannews.wordpress.com (secure)]

If the gog magog war hasn't started - the seeds are definitely germinating.....

God tells us we will have the capability to SEE the judgment he's pouring out on Israels enemies in this war.

Well, daily we are presented with videos and pictures of complete and utter destruction of Arab nations...Most notably Damascus - where the bible says will lie in a ruiness heap. Isa 17.

We're also witnessing the rise of the medes(ISIS) in Syria and Iraq. Isaiah 13 says "I will raise up the medes to destroy a wicked world."

ISIS is spreading it's fear and terror throughout the nations of the world.

I posted about that here:

Thread: All prophecies the bible says will happen in End Times are happening or almost completed at present (Page 41) - about 1/2 way down the page I start with the alternative interpretation Of Isaiah 13; which describes the "day of the Lord"......or end times....

Isaiah 13:6 Howl ye; for the day of the Lord is at hand; it shall come as a destruction from the Almighty.

11 And I will punish the world for their evil, and the wicked for their iniquity

In Isaiah 24 we get the earth will reel to and fro, like a drunkard.

If you are keeping track of earthquakes - that's exactly what it looks to be doing.

Eventually, we will actually feel it rocking back and forth.

---------

Remember these are only "end times" prophecies and must all be true at same time.

Next, the list of completed end time prophecies fulfilled at present from last "All Prophecies" thread: Will add to it as more are considered fulfilled.....

From what is described in Micah 7 - it could very well also be referring to the gog magog war of Ezekiel 38, 39.

Let's look at a few verses to determine whether it is.

Micah 7:12 In that day also he shall come even to thee from Assyria, and from the fortified cities, and from the fortress even to the river, and from sea to sea, and from mountain to mountain.

------

Apparently there are many nations involved here.

Same with the gog magog war.
