"So you are to know and discern that from the issuing of a decree to restore and rebuild Jerusalem until Messiah the Prince there will be seven weeks [that is, 49 Years] and sixty-two weeks [that is, 434 Years]; it will be built again, with plaza and moat, even in times of distress." [Dan.9:25][NASB]
Most Bible scholars that have studied the above verse tend to add seven weeks [49 Years] to sixty two weeks [434 Years] to arrive at a total of sixty nine weeks [483 Years].
This is wrong because the angel Gabriel told Daniel that the Anointed One will be killed after sixty-two weeks [434 Years] and not after sixty nine weeks [483 Years]!
I believe the angel Gabriel was revealing to Daniel that a Decree will be issued by the Jews, in our generation, to restore the City of Jerusalem, after it was destroyed in 70 AD! And that 49 Years after the Issue of this Decree, the Messiah, the Prince, will come!!!
When the Jews returned to Jerusalem in 1967 they did indeed Issue a Decree establishing the City of Jerusalem as the Capital of Israel. The Prime Minister of Israel, Menachem Begin in 1978, even wrote about it in a letter to President Jimmy Carter. The letter read as follows:
The President Camp David Thurmont, Maryland 17 September 1978
Dear Mr. President:
I have the honor to inform you, Mr. President, that on 28 June 1967 - Israel's parliament (The Knesset) promulgated and adopted a law to the effect: "the Government is empowered by a decree to apply the law, the jurisdiction and administration of the State to any part of Eretz Israel (Land of Israel - Palestine), as stated in that decree." On the basis of this law, the government of Israel decreed in July 1967 that Jerusalem is one city indivisible, the capital of the State of Israel.
Sincerely,
Menachem Begin
I'm expecting the Lord to come for us on the CORRECT Last Great Day of the Feast of Tabernacles, on the 4th/5th of November 2015! From and including: Wednesday, 28 June 1967 To and including: Thursday, 5 November 2015 Result: 17,663 days It is 17,663 days from the start date to the end date, end date included Or 48 years, 4 months, 9 days including the end date "So you are to know and discern that from the issuing of a decree to restore and rebuild Jerusalem until Messiah the Prince there will be seven weeks [that is, 49 Years]..." [Dan.9:25][NASB] Seven Weeks = 49 Years = 48 Years 4 Months and 9 Days Even though by the 4th/5th of November 2015, we'll only be 4 Months and 9 Days into the 49th Year, it's still counted as a full Year, according to the Jewish way of counting off Years. "...we are citizens of heaven, and it is from there that we expect a Deliverer, the Lord Yeshua the Messiah. He will change the bodies we have in this humble state and make them like his glorious body, using the power which enables him to bring everything under his control." [Phil.3:20,21] Then Daniel's last week of 7 Years will begin on the very Day the Lord gathers up His saints into heaven! In the book of Daniel, the Antichrist, is called "the horn", while the false prophet is called "the prince" They should not be mixed up! Of the horn we read, "...the same horn [Obama] was making war against the saints, and prevailing against them, until the Ancient of Days came [by the 30th of June 2022], and a judgment was made in favor of the saints of the Most High, and the time came for the saints to possess the kingdom...He shall speak pompous words against the Most High, Shall persecute the saints of the Most High, And shall intend to change times and law. Then the saints shall be given into his hand For a time [12 Months] and times [24 Months] and half a time [6 Months]." [Dan.7:21,22,25][words in bracket are mine] The horn [Obama] will persecute the Christians who will be left behind because they weren't willing to prepare themselves for the Lord's coming on the Last Day of this present Age! These Christians will live under the threat of being beheaded for a total period of 42 Months [12+24+6]. This will be anytime from the 7th of February 2019 [Day 1 Month 12 Year 6004], until the Lord comes back, with His glorified saints, by the 30th of June 2022 [Day 30 Month 3 Year 6007]. Of the prince we read, "And he [Pope Francis] shall enter into a strong and firm covenant with the many for one week [seven years]. And in the midst of the week he shall cause the sacrifice and offering to cease [for the remaining three and one-half years]; and upon the wing or pinnacle of abominations [shall come] one who makes desolate, until the full determined end is poured out on the desolator." [Daniel 9:27] The 6 Day visit of Pope Francis to the US reveals to us exactly what this covenant really is! Through Pope Francis the US, the UN, and the Islamic World are now publicly rejecting the Lord Jesus Christ, to become ONE [atonement] with the Devil, in the persecution and slaughter of Christians! Pope Francis causing "the sacrifice and offering to cease" means that from February 2019, he will cause many to deny Christ, out of fear of being beheaded in America and Europe! This is exactly 42 Months after the covenant that is now being made before our very eyes! Then, anytime from the 7th of February 2019 [Day 1 Month 12 Year 6004] Pope Francis will himself sit in the newly built temple, in the City of Jerusalem, as God, for another 42 Months! For he, "...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." [2 Thess.2:4] His 42 Months reign will come to an abrupt end when the Lord returns, with His glorified, by the 30th of June 2022. By the 30th of June 2022, both the horn and the prince will be captured and disposed of in the lake of fire! "Then the beast [that is, the horn] was captured, and with him the false prophet [that is, the prince] who worked signs in his presence, by which he deceived those who received the mark of the beast and those who worshiped his image. These two were cast alive into the lake of fire burning with brimstone." [Rev.19:20] I believe the Lord will come for us this Year, in 2015, and we'll return with Him, 7 Years later in June 2022!

“Immediately after the tribulation [that is, after the complete corruption of the Church through false doctrine] of those days [that is, the Days after the 12th of September 2015] the sun will be darkened [this is referring to the Partial Lunar Eclipse that was on the 13th of September 2015], and the moon will not give its light [this is referring to the Blood Moon that was on the 28th of September 2015]; the stars will fall from heaven [this is referring to the Draconids Meteor Shower that was from the 6th-10th of October 2015, as well as the Orionid shower which peaked on the 20th and the 21st of October 2015 ], and the powers of the heavens will be shaken. Then the sign of the Son of Man will appear in heaven, and then all the tribes of the earth will mourn, and they will see the Son of Man coming on the clouds of heaven with power and great glory. And He will send His angels with a great sound of a trumpet, and they will gather together His elect..." [Matt.24:29-31][Words in bracket are mine]
We're now living in the fulfillment of the powers of the heavens shaking. This is the wavering of the faith of the saints, just before the Lord comes! All living saints make up God's heavenly kingdom on earth. We are in fact the very embodiment of God's power. As we approach the Day of our translation the faith of many saints is beginning to waver or shake. This is the reason why we must pray in the Spirit for one another that our faith remains strong until the Last Great Day! "...praying always with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit, being watchful to this end with all perseverance and supplication for all the saints..." [Eph.6:18]
This shaking, or wavering of faith, will continue up until the Last Great Day of the Feast of the Tabernacles. On that Day "the sign of the Son of Man will appear in heaven", "all the tribes of the earth will mourn", "the Son of Man will come on the clouds of heaven with power and great glory" THEN the Lord will "...send His angels with a great sound of a trumpet, and they will gather together His elect..."
The Last Great Day of the Feast of Tabernacles falls on the 5th of November 2015. However, if the Feast is extended for another 7 Days, the Last Great Day will fall on the 12th of November 2015.
"So all the work that King Solomon had done for the house of the Lord was finished...Therefore all the men of Israel assembled with King Solomon at the Feast in the Month of Ethanim, which is the seventh Month...At that time Solomon held a Feast and all Israel with him, a Great Assembly from the entrance of Hamath to the Brook of Egypt, before the Lord our God, seven Days and seven more Days - fourteen Days." (1King 7:51, 8:2,65)
