Daniel
11:42-43
He
shall stretch forth his hand also
upon the countries: and the land of
Egypt shall not escape. But he shall
have power over the treasures of gold
and of silver, and over all the
precious things of Egypt: and the
Libyans and the Ethiopians shall be
at his steps.{42} “Ultimately,
the devil will impose his government
on the world. Egypt will not escape
his dominion.
{43} The devil
will also control the wealth of the
world. Even those who hate him and
those who hate the Most High God will
have no choice but to submit to him,
for no person will be able to buy or
sell unless he submits to
Lucifer’s laws and wears his
approval (a tattoo called the mark of
the beast).[31]
Daniel 11:44
But
tidings out of the east and out of
the north shall trouble him:
therefore he shall go forth with
great fury to destroy, and utterly to
make away many.{44} “During
the sixth trumpet, the 144,000 will
announce three messages to the world:
(a) the approaching end of
salvation’s offer, (b) that
everyone who worships the devil will
be punished during the seven bowls,
and (c) that Jesus’ return is
imminent. These announcements will
make the devil very angry. In a rage,
he will attempt to kill everyone he
can find who worships the Creator of
Heaven and Earth.
Daniel 11:45
And
he shall plant the tabernacles of his
palace between the seas in the
glorious holy mountain; yet he shall
come to his end, and none shall help
him.{45} “Lucifer
will establish his throne ‘in
the middle of mankind’ and he
will rule over human beings as
Almighty God. His achievement will be
short lived because the seven bowls
will immediately begin. During the
fifth bowl, the devil will be
unmasked and the wicked will clearly
see that the glorious being they have
been worshiping is the devil himself.
During the seventh bowl, the devil
and his angels will be returned to
the Abyss. His defeat will surely
come, but not by human hands.
Daniel 12:1
And
at that time shall Michael stand up,
the great prince which standeth for
the children of thy people: and there
shall be a time of trouble, such as
never was since there was a nation
even to that same time: and at that
time thy people shall be delivered,
every one that shall be found written
in the book.{12:1} “When the
devil finally sits down to rule the
world from his throne, a sovereign
Jesus (Michael), who rules from
God’s throne in Heaven, will
stand up. When Jesus stands up, 6,000
years of intercession for sinners
will come to an end. On that day,
Jesus will pronounce condemnation
upon all who refused His offer of
salvation and received the mark of
the beast. The wicked will be doomed
to receive the wrath of God (the
seven bowls) which will be poured out
without mercy. The pain and suffering
inflicted on the wicked cannot be
described, but everyone who has faith
like Daniel, everyone whose name is
found written in The Book of Life,
will be delivered from the suffering
which the seven bowls contain. When
Jesus stands up, the persecution of
the saints will cease and there will
never be another Christian martyr,
ever!
Daniel 12:2-3
And
many of them that sleep in the dust
of the earth shall awake, some to
everlasting life, and some to shame
and everlasting contempt. And they
that be wise shall shine as the
brightness of the firmament; and they
that turn many to righteousness as
the stars for ever and ever.{2} “A
few days before the Second Coming,
all of the martyrs who died during
the fifth seal will be resurrected to
everlasting life. Those who crucified
Jesus will also be resurrected so
that they can see the Son of Man
coming in clouds of glory.[32] Their
shame will never end and they will
perish with the wicked who will be
destroyed a few days later when Jesus
appears in clouds of glory.
{3} “Those
who love righteousness will shine
with the radiant glory of God. In
fact, the 144,000 will shine like
stars forever and ever.”
Epilogue
Daniel 12:4
But
thou, O Daniel, shut up the words,
and seal the book, even to the time
of the end: many shall run to and
fro, and knowledge shall be
increased.{4} “But
you, Daniel, close up and seal the
words of this book. This information
is reserved for the final generation.
There will be enormous advances in
travel and knowledge, but the Most
High God has sealed up this book
until the final generation
arrives.”
Daniel 12:5-6
Then
I Daniel looked, and, behold, there
stood other two, the one on this side
of the bank of the river, and the
other on that side of the bank of the
river. And one said to the man
clothed in linen, which was upon the
waters of the river, How long shall
it be to the end of these wonders?{5} Then
I looked and saw two glorious angels,
one stood on this side of the river
and the other stood on the opposite
bank.
{6} One of the
angels said to Jesus, the glorious
man clothed in bright linen who I saw
earlier standing above the waters of
the Tigris, “How long will it be
before the astonishing events in
these visions are fulfilled?”
Daniel 12:7
And
I heard the man clothed in linen,
which was upon the waters of the
river, when he held up his right hand
and his left hand unto heaven, and
sware by him that liveth for ever
that it shall be for a time, times,
and an half; and when he shall have
accomplished to scatter the power of
the holy people, all these things
shall be finished.{7} Jesus lifted
His right and left hand toward
Heaven, and I heard him say, I swear
by myself, who lives forever and
ever,[33] “This
gospel of the kingdom shall be
preached throughout the whole world
during the 1,260 days granted to my
Two Witnesses.[34]After my
144,000 servants have been killed,
all of these things will be
completed.”[35]
Daniel 12:8
And
I heard, but I understood not: then
said I, O my Lord, what shall be the
end of these things?{8} I
heard these words, but I could not
understand why God’s servants
will be killed. So I asked the angel,
“My lord, what will be the
outcome of these events?”
Daniel 12:9
And
he said, Go thy way, Daniel: for the
words are closed up and sealed till
the time of the end.{9} He
replied, “Do not worry about
these matters, Daniel, because the
words of this prophecy are closed up
and sealed until the time just before
the end. The saints living at the
time of the end will understand this
vision as it pertains to them, just
like the saints living at the
destruction of Jerusalem will
understand the portion of this vision
that pertains to them.
Daniel 12:10
Many
shall be purified, and made white,
and tried; but the wicked shall do
wickedly: and none of the wicked
shall understand; but the wise shall
understand.{10} “Many years will
come and go. God’s people will
be purified, made spotless and
refined, and the wicked will continue
to be wicked. None of the wicked will
understand these things because
spiritual things are spiritually
understood. At the appointed time of
the end, people who are spiritually
awake will be able to understand the
importance of these things.
