THE DAYS OF DANIEL 12?

From "The Association of the Covenant People" - Burnaby, B.C.
Canada - June 2012.


A NUMBER OF ORGANIZATION HAVE HAD AND STILL DO HAVE
SOME STRANGE AND TO BE BLUNT FAR OUT AND WILD IDEAS
ABOUT END TIME PROPHECY. THE FOLLOWING IS ONE OF THEM. I
WILL ADD COMMENTS AS WE GO AND THEN GIVE YOU THE TRUTH OF
DANIEL'S DAYS AND CHAPTER 12 - Keith Hunt


TIME PERIODS IN DANIEL

BY ROBERT B. MACDORMAND


The book of Daniel presents time periods which have been a source
of debate for many years. We are anxious to know when the end of
the age and the beginning of the Kingdom of Jesus Christ will
occur. Some people say it does not matter when these events will
occur as long as we are always ready to meet the Lord every day.
If that is so then why are these time periods mentioned in the
Bible?

(Now it is true that understanding prophecy is not a part of
"being saved" BUT it is a part of those given the gift of
understanding prophecy to expound for the Church of God in the
last days - Keith Hunt)

In the book of Daniel, the angel gave Daniel two time periods to
describe the coming of the end of the age and the beginning of
the Kingdom of God. He said, "And from the time that the daily
sacrifice shall be taken away, and the abomination that maketh
desolate set up, there shall be a thousand two hundred and ninety
days. Blessed is he that waiteth, and cometh to the thousand
three hundred and five and thirty days." Daniel 12:11-12. In his
book, "Study in Daniel", Howard Rand identifies the time of the
taking away of the daily sacrifice as 70 A.D., when the Romans
destroyed the Jewish temple in Jerusalem, but the abomination of
desolation as coming centuries later in 619 A.D., when Muhammad's
wife Khadija died, and Muhammad's career took a turn toward the
rapid expansion of Islam. Rand said at that point in history
Islam was fully established. Before that year its survival may
have been in doubt.

(Rand was out to lunch and so far off in his understanding of
prophecy it is quite silly to take most of what he once wrote in
any serious way - actually funny if it was not such a serious
matter. First the word "sacrifice" is not in the Hebrew. Second
the prophecy of Daniel has nothing to do with 70 A.D. or 619 A.D.
as I will show you later - Keith Hunt)

Khadija was an Ebeonite Christian. They were married by a
Christian priest and stayed married for twenty five years until
Khadija's death. Muhammad was faithful to her and took no other
wives until after she died. After Khadija's death, Islam entered
the violent stage. Within eleven years Muhammad had marshalled
the largest army in Arabia and conquered Mecca. He also married
twelve women. Khadija's death certainly marked a turning point
for Muhammad and for Islam. Counting 1290 years from her death,
Rand pointed to 1909 A.D. as the beginning of the consummation of
the age. 

(Again Rand was so far out in his ideas it is funny if not so
serious a matter - Keith Hunt)

Counting 1335 years he pointed to 1954 as being the beginning of
the era of blessedness. Rand thought there would be another war
after the Second World War between our people and the Soviet
Union which would end before 1954. He based his calculations on
measurements from the Great Pyramid. As we all know, his
calculations and predictions were not accurate. I have not seen
an accurate prediction based on the 1290 and the 1335 years
except that it was pointed out in Israel Truth literature that
1335 lunar years from the beginning of the Muslim calendar brings
us to 1917 A.D., when Britain released Jerusalem from the
domination of the Ottoman Empire.

(IT is now obvious Rand and his prophetic interpretations were
from planet Pluto - wrong and just way off beam. Daniel 12 has
nothing to do with 1917 either - that is also a silly idea and
completely wrong as I will show later - Keith Hunt)

Let us not dismiss Howard Rand's predictions as being totally
wrong, as many people have. One person, who is not in the Israel
Truth movement, told me that people abandoned British Israel
teaching because we predicted the return of Christ to take place
in the 1950's. I have seen this in a few writings from that era,
based on measurements from the Great Pyramid. Howard Rand
certainly believed the end was coming soon after the Second World
War. 

(And Rand and his ideas should be dismissed as many others and
their ideas about the end of the age and Jesus' return in the
1950s, 1970s, 1980s, and etc. have all been shown to be in total
error, because they simply did not understand Bible prophecy
correctly - Keith Hunt)

However, it may be that Rand had something when he pointed to
Islam as being connected to the abomination of desolation. Some
Israel Truth believers have looked to Jerusalem and the mosque of
Omar, the Dome of the Rock, which was built on the site of the
original temple and completed in 691 A.D. as being the
abomination of desolation. Counting 1290 years from that year
brings us to 1981 A.D., which could be called the beginning of
the consummation of the age. It was the year President Reagan
started the arms race which financially crippled the Soviet union
and brought about its demise. There was later a separation of
countries from Russia and I believe many of those countries which
were liberated will not be part of Gog (Ezekiel 38:2). 

(Once more fully and totally WRONG. The prophecy of Daniel 12 has
nothing to do with 691 A.D. or 1981 A.D. or ANYTHING because
Daniel 12 has not YET arrived - Keith Hunt)

Counting 1335 years from completion of the mosque brings us to
2026 A.D. Will that year be 1917 all over again, when Jerusalem
will be liberated a second time? I believe Gog (Russia and a
conglomerate of nations) will capture Jerusalem at some time in
the future (Zechariah 14:2) and possibly attack North America.

(NNNNOOOO!!!!  Such ideas are in ignorance of understanding
Daniel 12 correctly and all of Bible prophecy - Keith Hunt)

Will 2026 A.D. be the end of Gag? Russia's rise to power began in
1917 with the Communist revolution. Will 2026 mark the end of
that power? Only the Lord knows.

(NNNOOO!!! 2026 has nothing to do with Russia, or Daniel 12 per
se. Now I will give you the TRUTH of Daniel 12 - Keith Hunt)
......


DANIEL 12 AND HIS DAYS UP TO 1335

To understand Daniel 12 we have to go back to Daniel 11:40 - for
the prophecy is one continuous prophecy from Daniel 11:40 to the
end of Daniel 12.

Verse 40 it is the time of the end. The last years of this age as
we shall see in a moment. There is to arise a "king of the south"
which will be led by Egypt, as foretold in the book of Ezekiel
and other end time prophecies, expounded to you on my website
in other studies. What you see taking place in many of the Arab
nations today is the START of what will eventually be a union of
Arab nations forming the end time "king of the south." The "king
of the north" is and will be the union of nations in Europe - the
clay and iron feet of Daniel's image in chapter 2. You can
certainly see today the clay (weakness) and iron (strength) of
Europe in the present distress taking place in the Europe Union
of nations. This union will be the LAST resurrection of the Holy
Roman Empire - 6 have come and gone - ONE MORE is to yet arise
for a very short time at the very end time of this age. See my
study "The Beasts of Daniel and Revelation" on my website.

The "king of the south" shall "push at" (in what way is not
revealed) and the "king of the north" shall come against him and
prevail - conquer the king of the south to put it frankly. There
was a type of this happening in the latter 1930s and the Europe
led by Hitler, BUT it never went on to fulfil the rest of the
prophecy, hence HITLER and the NAZI machine was not the end time
"king of the north." 

At this end time destroying of the king of the south, there will
be trouble all right coming from the North-East (v.44) - from
Russia and China and India and Pakistan and the powers of the
North-East. What the king of the north must do to gain world
power, he must do quickly or he'll never do it, hence verse 44.
The Europe king of the north will work quickly. It will march
into Jerusalem and the Holy Land and set its tabernacle -
dwelling place -  between the seas in the holy mountain - Jerusalem!

I have expounded for you in other studies Matthew 24; Mark 13;
Luke 21 and the book of Revelation, There will come an end time
destruction upon the Jews in the Holy Land and upon Jerusalem. 

NOTICE NOW the prophecy does not stop - it continued right into
chapter 12.

"And AT THAT TIME....(chap.12:1) - at the time the king of the
north - the Europe Beast - last end time Holy Roman Empire -
enters the Holy Land after destroying the king of the south (all
YET to take place).....AND THERE SHALL BE A TIME OF TROUBLE, SUCH
AS NEVER WAS SINCE THERE WAS A NATION EVEN TO THAT SAME TIME..."

THIS IS THE SAME TIME OF TROUBLE AS JESUS MENTIONS IN MAT. 24;
MARK 13; LUKE 21. IT IS THE SAME TIME OF TROUBLE AS IN JEREMIAH
30:7 - CALLED THERE "JACOB'S TROUBLE"! Jacob had his name changed
to "Israel" - it is the end time GREAT TRIBULATION (Mat.24) upon
ALL of Israel - the House of Judah - the Jews - and the House of
Israel - most of the Western world nations. 

The coming Babylon Beast - Holy Roman Empire of Europe - a
military and religious power, will destroy the king of the south
(an Arab union yet to form) and march into the Holy Land -
destroying the Jews and Jerusalem, and then turning its guns on
The British Commonwealth of nations and the USA and some other
nations of North-West Europe. IT WILL BE THE TIME OF TROUBLE SUCH
AS THE WORLD HAS NEVER EXPERIENCED. THE WESTERN WORLD WILL BE
RULED BY THE BABYLON BEAST OF EUROPE. THE LAST 42 MONTHS, 1260
DAYS, THE TIME AND TIMES AND DIVIDING OF A TIME - 42 MONTHS OF
REVELATION WILL COME ON THE EARTH. IT WILL BE THE "GREAT
TRIBULATION" SPOKEN ABOUT BY CHRIST IN MATTHEW 24.

THEN NOTICE...."and at that time thy people shall be delivered,
every one that shall be found written in the book. And many of
them that sleep in the dust of the earth shall AWAKE....."

It is THE TIME OF THE RESURRECTION OF SAINTS, THE HOLY PEOPLE,
THOSE WRITTEN IN THE BOOK....YES THE BOOK OF LIFE AS STATED IN
REVELATION. IT IS THE RETURN OF CHRIST AND THE RESURRECTION OF
THE SAINTS, INCLUDING DANIEL. ALL THIS I HAVE EXPOUNDED FOR YOU
IN EXPOUNDING MATTHEW 24; MARK 13; AND LUKE 21 AND THE BOOK OF
REVELATION ON MY WEBSITE.

THE SAINTS WILL SHINE LIKE THE STARS OF HEAVEN FOREVER - THE
RESURRECTION CHAPTER OF 1 CORINTHIANS 15 (Daniel 12:3).

THE WORDS OF THIS PROPHECY ARE SEALED EVEN TO THE TIME OF THE
END, WHEN PEOPLE WILL RUN TO AND FRO AND KNOWLEDGE INCREASED
(verse 4).

This time has ONLY ARRIVED since about 1960 - the last 60 years -
people going to and fro and knowledge increasing like as never
before.

Daniel sees two - one on this side of the river and the other on
the other side (v.5). The question is asked ... "HOW LONG SHALL
IT BE TO THE END OF THESE WONDERS" (v.6).

THE ANSWER IS verse 7.... "a TIME, TIMES, AND AN HALF (SAME AS IN
THE BOOK OF REVELATION = 42 MONTHS OR 1260 DAYS)...when he shall
have accomplished to SCATTER the power of the HOLY people (this
is the people of Israel - all 13 tribes - STILL the chosen of God
- and the saints of God, for I have proved to you in other
studies that there will come an end time persecution of the
saints of God, who will need to flee into the wilderness -
Revelation 12 - some will be killed, as it has always been down
through the ages)....ALL THESE THINGS SHALL BE  FINISHED."

Daniel was still not understanding (v.8) and said, "O my Lord,
what shall be the  END  OF THESE THINGS?"

Daniel was told the words were CLOSED UP and SEALED - till the
TIME OF THE END (V.9).

At the time of the end the WICKED (Bible definition is Ps.
119:53) would not understand - and putting it bluntly anyone who
does NOT observe the 4th commandment - the Sabbath day - the 7th
day, not the 1st day, the 7th day, is still in the wicked class,
though they observe the other 9 commandments. They will NOT
understand - the RC CHURCH AND PROTESTANTS CAN NOT KNOW
Bible prophecy for they WILL NOT, OR DO NOT, observe the 7th day
Sabbath). BUT THE WISE SHALL UNDERSTAND (see Ps.111:10 for wisdom
definition)!!!

Now verse 11. The key is the DAILY taken away.... the word
"sacrifice" is NOT in the Hebrew. It was written as such BECAUSE,
at the time of the end sacrifices of animals by Jews will not be
taking place - contrary to some "fundamental" prophet teachings,
which I have covered in depth as to their WRONG prophetic
teaching on my website, under this section of "prophecy."

The DAILY life of Jews in the holy land and in Jerusalem, will be
taken away - destruction and captivity for them has come from the
king of the north - the Beast Babylon Holy Roman Empire of
Europe. The DAILY life of ALL Israel will come to a STOP - all 13
tribes will be in CAPTIVITY - the Europe Beast will rule the
Western world. The ABOMINATION that MAKES DESOLATE - Jerusalem
now made desolate - Judah and Israel made desolate - the saints
made desolate in persecution ... FROM THAT TIME ... "there shall
be 1290 DAYS (v.11). 

FROM THE TIME OF THE START OF THE GREAT TRIBULATION - THE
ABOMINATION OF DESOLATION will be 1290 days - 30 days MORE than
the 1260 days of the book of Revelation.

BUT THERE IS MORE...."Blessed is he that waits and comes to the
1335 days" (v.12).

THIS IS AN ADDED 45 DAYS TO THE 1290 DAYS. SO WE ARE OVER
THE 1260 DAYS OR 42 MONTHS, OR TIME, TIMES, AND HALF, OF THE BOOK
OF REVELATION BY 75 DAYS OR 2 MONTHS AND 15 DAYS, WITH A 30 DAY
MONTH, AS IT WAS ORIGINALLY IN THE FIRST CHAPTERS OF GENESIS.

THEN NOTICE.....  "But go your (Daniel) way TILL THE END BE: FOR
YOU SHALL REST (in death), AND STAND IN THY LOT (A
RESURRECTION) AT THE END OF THE DAYS!!!! (v.13).

Ah, are you getting it? Are you putting it all together? Do you
see the CONNECTIONS with an "S" - connectionS WITH ALL THE VERSES
FROM CHAPTER 11:40 TO 12:13?

THE TIME HAS COME TO NOW UNDERSTAND DANIEL 12 AND THE DAYS OF A
TIME, TIMES, HALF (As in Revelation = 1260 days or 42 months) and
THE DAYS OF 1290, 1335.

THE GREATEST TIME OF TROUBLE THIS WORLD HAS EVER EXPERIENCED WILL
COME WHEN THE KING OF THE NORTH ENTERS THE HOLY LAND AND
DESTRUCTION COMES ON JERUSALEM - THE JEWS, ALL ISRAEL NATIONS -
THE SAINTS OF GOD. FROM THAT TIME THE DAYS BEGIN - NOT
UNTIL THAT TIME DO THE DAYS BEGIN!!!

FIRST IT IS A TIME, TIMES, AND HALF, WHICH IS, AS IN THE BOOK OF
REVELATION = 1260 DAYS OR 42 MONTHS. THEN IT IS 1290 DAYS - AN
ADDED 30 DAYS OR ONE MONTH. THEN IT IS 1335 DAYS - AN ADDED 45
DAYS OR ANOTHER ONE AND A HALF MONTHS. 

***THEN*** AT THE ***END*** OF THOSE DAYS ..... AT THE END OF
1335 DAYS, DANIEL WILL ***STAND*** IN HIS LOT ..... THE
RESURRECTION OF THE SAINTS TAKES PLACE - JESUS WILL RETURN - THE
RESURRECTION OF THE SAINTS WILL HAPPEN!!!

THE TIME, TIMES, HALF A TIME ... THE 1260 DAYS, THE 1290 DAYS,
THE 1335 DAYS ..... HAVE NOT ***YET*** TAKEN PLACE!!!

THEY ARE THE DAYS OF THE VERY LAST DAYS OF THIS AGE, LEADING UP
TO THE RETURN OF CHRIST AND THE RESURRECTION OF THE SAINTS.

THIS IS THE TRUTH OF THE MATTER .... I HAVE GIVEN IT TO YOU ....
NOW YOU KNOW IF YOU ARE ONE OF THE WISE, KEEPING THE COMMANDMENTS
OF GOD, THEN YOU WILL KNOW I HAVE GIVEN YOU THE TRUE
UNDERSTANDING OF THE DAYS OF DANIEL 12.

WITH  THAT  TRUE  UNDERSTANDING  NOW  YOU  CAN  SEE  WHY  ALL 
THE  PEOPLE  IN  THE  PAST  LIKE  HOWARD  RAND  AND  OTHERS,
WERE ***WRONG*** IN  THEIR  DATE  SETTINGS  OF  WHATEVER  DATE,
DECADE,  YEARS,  THEY  WERE  TRYING  TO  CALCULATE.  THEY  DID
NOT  UNDERSTAND, IT  WAS  NOT  THE  TIME  OF  THE  END,  MOST  OF
THEM  WERE  NOT  WILLING  TO  OBEY  ALL  THE  COMMANDMENTS  OF
GOD,  SOME OF  THOSE  WHO  WERE  KEEPING  THE  10  COMMANDMENTS
(INCLUDING  THE  7TH  DAY  SABBATH)  BECAME  VAIN  IN  THEIR  OWN
MIND  WHICH  LED  THEM  TO  PERVERT  THE  WORD  OF  GOD  AND  SO
THEY  COULD  NOT  UNDERSTAND  EITHER.

I  DO   COME  TO  YOU  TELLING  YOU  DOGMATICALLY  THIS  IS  THE 
CORRECT  UNDERSTANDING  OF  DANIEL  12.  IF  YOU  DO  NOT  SEE 
IT  THEN  JUST  WAIT  FOR  IT  WILL  ALL  HAPPEN   EXACTLY  AS 
I'VE  GIVEN  IT  TO  YOU  IN  THIS  STUDY.  THEN  INDEED  YOU 
SHALL  KNOW  GOD  DID  GIVE  THE  UNDERSTANDING  TO  HIS  TRUE 
SERVANTS  WHO  FEAR  HIM  AND  WALK  WITH  HIM  IN  SPIRIT  AND 
IN  TRUTH.
