As in the days of Noah = violence. As in the days of Sodom and Gomorrah = Homosexuality. Can judgment be near? I don't tell people that there will be 7 more years. Here is why. The idea of a 7 year tribulation comes from the two verses in Daniel 9:26 and 27. First, the word "after" is used in verse 26 meaning "after the three score and two weeks Messiah shall be cut off". What happens right after the threescore and two weeks? The prince of the people come and destroy the city and the sanctuary. is this not the 70th week right after the 69th week? Second, what does the word "Prince" mean? Every time the word prince is used by Daniel it is an Angel or Demon. The prince of Persia, the prince of Greece, Messiah the prince, Michael the chief prince and so on. The term prince is never used as a human. So, the prince of the people in verse 27 is a demon guiding the Roman empire in 65 AD just before the destruction in 70 AD. The people of Rome came to subjugate the people of Israel and destroyed the city and sanctuary in the last week of the 70 week prophecy. This prince mentioned in verse 26 is not an end time antichrist as described by modern book writers. Many people have accepted the Newton riddle which places a gap between the 69th week and 70th week and places the last half of verse 26 and verse 27 as a future event. This would not be a proper and scriptural explanation of the end of this age. The gap is man made. After the 70th week of determination by God that Israel will cease tor their transgressions. there will be war desolations until the end. When did Jews actually leave the land? When the dome of the rock was built and the holy place was covered by this abomination. Yes, Jews stayed after the Roman siege and continued to worship in the holy place on the temple mount until the muslims covered the holy place. I wrote all this because, I don't believe that there is 7 more years and I don't believe the other ideas that have been derived from the Newton riddle, a man made riddle. The time of judgment will come quick and as Jesus said, "therefore be ye also ready: for in such and hour as ye think not the Son of man cometh". Destruction will come quick and many are deceived. We have been given signs and know time is short. The generation of 1967 that took Jerusalem back will not pass until all is fulfilled. Homosexuality, evil wars without righteous judgment, false teachings, record hurricanes and devastating weather caused by the oceans, have taken deep root just before the last blood moon was displayed in September. Russia has been pulled down. What to look for next before Jesus returns you may ask, invasion of Israel, the sun and moon darkened, dead bodies scattered throughout the land of Israel and birds flying over full of flesh. The world devastated. "For in the days before the flood they were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, until the day that Noah entered into the ark." "Watch ye therefore, and pray always, that ye may be accounted worthy to escape all these things that shall come to pass, and to stand before the Son of man." "Here is the patience of the saints, here are they that keep the commandments of God and a faith in Jesus." "Because thou hast kept the word of my patience, I also will keep thee from the hour of temptation , which shall come upon all the world, to try them that dwell upon the earth."
