Last Day Prophesies

There are numerous verses in the Scriptures that deal with end-time prophesy; and I am certain this is a topic everyone is interested in. The prime purpose of this study is to review these prophesies and compare them with today’s events. The secondary purpose is to provide everyone with a complete list of all such verses for future reference. What I am going to do is take all of these verses, arrange them in chronological order and attempt to create a clear picture of these events.
Isa. 46: 9 - Remember the former things of old: for I am Elohim, and there is none else; I am Elohim, and there is none like me,
10 - Declaring the end from the beginning, and from ancient times the things that are not yet done, saying, My counsel shall stand, and I will do all my pleasure:
These verses reveal the purpose of prophesy. First and foremost, they reveal the glory of Yahuwah. When these prophesied events do occur, we remember back that Yahuwah prophesied of these things, giving us cause to seek Yahuwah’s pleasure even more. They also prove the existence and great power of Yahuwah, the only, true Elohim.
Dan. 8:11 - Yea, he magnified himself even to the prince of the host, and by him the daily sacrifice was taken away, and the place of his sanctuary was cast down.
12 - And a host was given him against the daily sacrifice by reason of transgression, and it cast down the truth to the ground; and it practised, and prospered.
13 - Then I heard one saint speaking, and another saint said unto that certain saint which spoke, How long shall be the vision concerning the daily sacrifice, and the transgression of desolation, to give both the sanctuary and the host to be trodden under foot?
14 - And he said unto me, Unto two thousand and three hundred days; then shall the sanctuary be cleansed.
Even though the majority of Daniel’s prophesies have already come to pass, I believe that much prophesy is dualistic in nature and will occur again in the future. When Daniel wrote this book, he was already in Babylonian captivity; so, the first occurrence of the temple being destroyed and the end of the sacrifices has already occurred. But here he is talking about the second time this was to occur under future Roman control. Under the Greek occupation, the abomination of desolation was erected, however it only vaguely resembled the end-time abomination. It was destroyed and the Greeks driven out during the Maccabean revolt. The Roman’s destroyed the temple once again in 70 A.D. but did not build anything over the site, nor did they erect any statue for worship. Several hundred years later, the Muslims built the Dome of the Rock over the temple site. The Roman Catholic Church: however, is determined to have their own church built on the site. And, of course, the Jews wish to rebuild their temple there. Each will have their turn.
Daniel was told that it would be 2300 days until the cleansing of the temple. On the Hebrew calendar, that would equal 6.388 years (a Hebrew year being roughly 360 days). Even the resources I have checked seemed somewhat confused by what was meant by this time frame, so I am not embarrassed to say that I have no explanation either.
Dan. 8:23 - And in the latter time of their kingdom, when the transgressors are come to the full, a king of fierce countenance, and understanding dark sentences, shall stand up.
24 - And his power shall be mighty, but not by his own power: and he shall destroy wonderfully, and shall prosper, and practise, and shall destroy the mighty and the holy people.
This passage is referring to the end-times. The wording is a bit tricky, but the following offers a translation for us.
https://www.dictionary.com/browse/artifice?s=t
of fierce countenance--( Deuteronomy 28:50 ); one who will spare neither old nor young.
understanding dark sentences--rather, "artifices" [GESENIUS]. Antiochus made himself master of Egypt and Jerusalem successively by craft (I Maccabees 1:30, &c.; II Maccabees 5:24, &c.).
1 Macc. 1:30 - Deceitfully he spoke peaceable words to them, and they believed him; but he suddenly fell upon the city, dealt it a severe blow, and destroyed many people of Israel.
2 Macc. 5:24 - Antiochus[a] sent Apollonius, the captain of the Mysians, with an army of twenty-two thousand, and commanded him to kill all the grown men and to sell the women and boys as slaves.
Yes, the Jews indeed paid a horrific price for their desolations. We must be ever vigilant not to repeat their mistake.
Dan. 9: 27 - And he shall confirm the covenant with many for one week: and in the midst of the week he shall cause the sacrifice and the oblation to cease, and for the overspreading of abominations he shall make it desolate, even until the consummation, and that determined shall be poured upon the desolate.
This all occurred under Greek occupation. Yet, the same is to occur once again under the end-time Antichrist. The end-time abomination of desolation will differ from its predecessor only by the fact that it will be animated (likely robotic) and will actually move and speak.
Dan 11:31 - And arms shall stand on his part, and they shall pollute the sanctuary of strength, and shall take away the daily sacrifice, and they shall place the abomination that makes desolate.
32 - And such as do wickedly against the covenant shall he corrupt by flatteries: but the people that do know their Elohim shall be strong, and do exploits.
The Temple is going to be rebuilt. The abomination of desolation will once again stand in the Holy Place. Plans for its resurrection are currently underway. Following it will be the return to the ancient sacrificial system. To the True Believer, that system is no longer necessary, but to the unbelieving Jews, everything remains as it was in Moses’ day. This future system will court and flatter those who obey him (the Antichrist) in doing wickedly against the covenant. It is only by our “knowing” Yahuwah on an up-close and personal level, will True Believers succeed.
Dan 11: 35 - And some of them of understanding shall fall, to try them, and to purge, and to make them white, even to the time of the end: because it is yet for a time appointed.
36 - And the king shall do according to his will; and he shall exalt himself, and magnify himself above every elohim, and shall speak marvellous things against the Elohim of elohim, and shall prosper till the indignation be accomplished: for that that is determined shall be done.
37 - Neither shall he regard the Elohim of his fathers, nor the desire of women, nor regard any god: for he shall magnify himself above all.
38 - But in his estate shall he honour the elohim of forces: and an elohim whom his fathers knew not shall he honour with gold, and silver, and with precious stones, and pleasant things.
39 - Thus shall he do in the most strong holds with a strange elohim, whom he shall acknowledge and increase with glory: and he shall cause them to rule over many, and shall divide the land for gain.
The above description describes the emperor of every empire that has ever existed. The end-time empire and its emperor will be no different. Any all-powerful emperor believes himself to be the ultimate power on the planet. Thinking so, he believes himself to actually be elohim and demand worship. “Him that you obey, him also do you worship” (Rom. 6:16). This fact is what reveals the falsehood in the claim that Constantine converted to Christianity. This would have been totally out of character for any worldly emperor. The two things they all had in common was believing they were the ultimate authority on earth and believing that they were elohim on earth. The RCC has carried on that same lie with their Pope. That qualifies the RCC as an empire unto itself; and as separate from the One True Elohim as east is from west.
People are going to “eat up” the coming empirical religion for the exact same reason they bought into the previous ones, out of fear of persecution. If any of us fear persecution, we are definitely in the wrong faith. We might as well quit and become Catholics right now. The Roman Catholic Church is the Great Whore and all the protestant churches, her harlot daughters. One is every bit a lie as the rest. We must not run from persecution; we should welcome it, as it tests us and brings us that much closer to Yahuwah and Yahushua.
The term, god/elohim of forces refers to the adversary, HaSatan. The strange elohim here refers to Molech, whom the Elite secretly worship at Bohemian Grove, Cal. every year. They gather together dressed in ridiculous masked and hooded robes intended to hide their identities. If they were true servants of Yahuwah, there would be no such need to conceal themselves. In following their forefathers, they perform satanic rituals such as child sacrifice, currently using dolls in place of live human children. They may be good at deceiving other humans, but they are in no way fooling Yahuwah.
Daniel 9:24 - Seventy weeks are determined upon your people and upon your holy city, to finish the transgression, and to make an end of sins, and to make reconciliation for iniquity, and to bring in everlasting righteousness, and to seal up the vision and prophecy, and to anoint the most Holy.
25 - Know therefore and understand, that from the going forth of the commandment to restore and to build Jerusalem unto the Messiah the Prince shall be seven weeks, and threescore and two weeks: the street shall be built again, and the wall, even in troublesome times.
26 - And after threescore and two weeks shall Messiah be cut off, but not for himself: and the people of the prince that shall come shall destroy the city and the sanctuary; and the end thereof shall be with a flood, and unto the end of the war desolations are determined.
27 - And he shall confirm the covenant with many for one week: and in the midst of the week he shall cause the sacrifice and the oblation to cease, and for the overspreading of abominations he shall make it desolate, even until the consummation, and that determined shall be poured upon the desolate.
A more modern version render this as follows;
24 “Seventy ‘sevens’ are decreed for your people and your holy city to finish transgression, to put an end to sin, to atone for wickedness, to bring in everlasting righteousness, to seal up vision and prophecy and to anoint the Most Holy Place.
25 “Know and understand this: From the time the word goes out to restore and rebuild Jerusalem until the Anointed One, the ruler, comes, there will be seven ‘sevens,’ and sixty-two ‘sevens.’ It will be rebuilt with streets and a trench, but in times of trouble.
26 After the sixty-two ‘sevens,’ the Anointed One will be put to death and will have nothing. The people of the ruler who will come will destroy the city and the sanctuary. The end will come like a flood: War will continue until the end, and desolations have been decreed.
27 He will confirm a covenant with many for one ‘seven.’ In the middle of the ‘seven’ he will put an end to sacrifice and offering. And at the temple he will set up an abomination that causes desolation, until the end that is decreed is poured out on him.”
The first 70 years refers to the Babylonian captivity. Following their return to the land, and the order for the rebuilding of the temple, it would be 7X 70, or 490 years till the coming of the Messiah. Well, as hard as I tried, I could not get these figures to add up. For one, my studies have proven that Yahushua was born in 6b.c and died in 28 a.d. This, as you may have noticed, does not jive with the common belief that He was born in 4b.c. and died in 33a.d. The reason for these false dates was deliberately formulated to have the Messiah die in a year where the Passover (when Yahushua died) fell on a Friday, confirming the false Friday crucifixion/ Sunday resurrection nonsense of traditional Christian faith. With a 6 b.c. birth and a 28 a.d. death (on a Wednesday), everything lines up perfectly.
Dan. 12:1 - And at that time shall Michael stand up, the great prince which stands for the children of your 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 your people shall be delivered, every one that shall be found written in the book.
2 - 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.
3 - 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.
4 - But you, 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
Verse 1 is talking of the 144,000. It will be at the beginning of the last 3 ½ years of the Tribulation that they will go to the place of safety. At the end of the tribulation will come the first resurrection of the righteous in Yahuwah. At the end of the millennium the final resurrection shall take place. The righteous will rise to eternal life and the unrighteous to eternal death, shame and everlasting contempt. The righteous will shine like the sun; and the righteous stewards of the spirit who brought many others to righteousness shall shine like the stars forever and ever.
Then Daniel was told to seal up the prophesies until the time of the end. The build-up to that time has already began. In fact, it began some 1700 years ago with the first Antichrist, Emperor Constantine. Many think we are living in the last days now; but then, so has every generation of Believer. Some even think that the Tribulation has already begun and ended. It would certainly seem as if we are living in the times described at the end of verse 4. However, I would remind everyone that the one unmistakable prophesy concerning the tribulation is that the two end-time witnesses will make their debut at the beginning of the 7-year tribulation. And they will be made known to the entire world when that day comes. And if we think we are now living in those days, we haven’t seen anything yet.
Dan.12:9 - And he said, Go your way, Daniel: for the words are closed up and sealed till the time of the end.
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.
11 - And from the time that the daily sacrifice shall be taken away, and the abomination that makes desolate set up, there shall be a thousand two hundred and ninety days.
12 - Blessed is he that waits, and cometh to the thousand three hundred and five and thirty days.
13 - But go you your way till the end be: for you shalt rest and stand in your lot at the end of the days.
Verse 9 leaves no doubt that Daniel was speaking of a time long past his own time. He knew he would never see this prophesy in his own lifespan, yet he absolutely believed every word the angel revealed to him. Daniel went to his grave with this knowledge; but he will be in the resurrection following these days. Then, and only then, will he have the “proof” of his prophesies. Hopefully, those living in the last days will remember the words of Daniel’s 2500-year-old prophesies and know that they were true and prove the glory of Yahuwah.
The time Daniel was talking about, will follow the witness of the two end-time prophets, who will bring all sorts of calamity upon the earth. They will be hated by the human population which will do their best to kill them. Finally, after 3 ½ years, Yahuwah will allow them to be killed but after three days and nights of laying in the street so that, this time, all would witness either their resurrection or their lies. They will want to leave no room for dispute (like they did the last time). They do not know that they are playing right into Yahuwah’s plan.
Hab. 2: 1 - I will stand upon my watch, and set me upon the tower, and will watch to see what he will say unto me, and what I shall answer when I am reproved.
2 - And Yahuwah answered me, and said, Write the vision, and make it plain upon tables, that he may run that reads it.
3 - For the vision is yet for an appointed time, but at the end it shall speak, and not lie: though it tarry, wait for it; because it will surely come, it will not tarry.
4 - Behold, his soul which is lifted up is not upright in him: but the just shall live by his faith.
Scriptural prophesy is as sure to come as the sun tomorrow morning. Yahuwah alone knows the end from the beginning. He formulated His entire plan before He created His Son, whom He made the Seed of His entire creation. And even the Seed admitted not knowing when the time of the end would come, but the Father alone. So, who do these people think they are? Who are these who pretend to be more knowledgeable than the Son of Man? It is not man who chooses his position in Yahuwah’s Kingdom. It is Yahuwah. And all the self-styled prophets out there are nothing but frauds and charlatans.
It is not our place to know all the little details concerning what is coming. If we did, it might scare us away from following after Yahuwah altogether. Our faith should suffice us and create in us the patience to wait on Yahuwah to fulfill His promises. If it does not happen in our lifetimes, we will certainly hear all about it after we are resurrected.
Isa. 46:3 - Hearken unto me, O house of Jacob, and all the remnant of the house of Israel, which are borne by me from the belly, which are carried from the womb:
4 - And even to your old age I am he; and even to hoar hairs will I carry you: I have made, and I will bear; even I will carry, and will deliver you.
5 - To whom will you liken me, and make me equal, and compare me, that we may be like?
6 - They lavish gold out of the bag, and weigh silver in the balance, and hire a goldsmith; and he makes it a god: they fall down, yea, they worship.
7 - They bear him upon the shoulder, they carry him, and set him in his place, and he stands; from his place shall he not remove: yea, one shall cry unto him, yet can he not answer, nor save him out of his trouble.
8 - Remember this and show yourselves men: bring it again to mind, O ye transgressors.
9 - Remember the former things of old: for I am Elohim, and there is no one else; I am Elohim, and there is none like me,
10 - Declaring the end from the beginning, and from ancient times the things that are not yet done, saying, My counsel shall stand, and I will do all my pleasure:
Man rejected Elohim almost from the beginning. One might have thought he would have learned from his mistakes by now, but he hasn’t! A Greek home builder I was working for once told me that, “God did not create man, man created god”. At the time I did not understand what he meant, but over the years I came to know the truth of his words. Man will choose anything or anyone to worship in place of the One True Elohim. That is simply the nature that the Adversary put in him. The One True Elohim was made known to us at baptism. Therefore, we are without excuse for not knowing Him.
The proof of Yahuwah lies in the fulfillment of prophesy.

“It is commonly estimated that over 1/3 of the Bible is prophecy. Most sources state that over 300 of them have been fulfilled.”
If this statement is true, we yet have 2/3 of bible prophesy that has not yet come true and therefore make up the bulk of end-time prophesy. We do not know if we will be around for most of these end time events, but that should not matter. What we need to be focused on is completely transforming our nature into the nature of Yahuwah. If we fail in this one area, we fail in all. Nothing else will matter if we do not accomplish this one vital act.
Concerning prophesy, if one third of them have already come about exactly as prophesied, why should there be any doubt that the remaining two thirds will not come about in the same manner. If betting on a horse race, one studies the track record of the horses to determine ones you would predict to win. In like manner, one needs to consider Yahuwah’s track record when choosing to believe the remaining prophesies or not.
I have contemplated for a long time, why it is that we are not performing the wonderful works of the Apostles. I have been told by Christian church pastors that their god does not work that way anymore. Well, their god never did. I think I have just recently realized that this is the reason. We are not doing enough to take on the nature of Yahuwah and making it our own. We are not doing enough to communicate personally with the Father and request to be filled with His nature. We are, instead, allowing our carnal spirit to keep us at arms length from Yahuwah’s spirit and nature. No excuse will validate failure in this venture. We must, in all ways, take on the nature of Yahushua, which was one and the same with the Father. Yahushua was a created being just like you and me; and He had to learn the ways of the Father just like we do. He succeeded, proving it viable, and we must prove it to ourselves, our brothers and sisters and to future generations, if the plan of Yahuwah is to succeed. Believe it, become it.
Isa 2: 1 - The word that Isaiah the son of Amoz saw concerning Judah and Jerusalem.
2 - And it shall come to pass in the last days, that the mountain of Yahuwah’s house shall be established in the top of the mountains, and shall be exalted above the hills; and all nations shall flow unto it.
3 - And many people shall go and say, Come you, and let us go up to the mountain of Yahuwah, to the house of the Elohim of Jacob; and he will teach us of his ways, and we will walk in his paths: for out of Zion shall go forth the law, and the word of Yahuwah from Jerusalem.
4 - And he shall judge among the nations, and shall rebuke many people: and they shall beat their swords into plowshares, and their spears into pruninghooks: nation shall not lift up sword against nation, neither shall they learn war any more.
5 - O house of Jacob, come you, and let us walk in the light of Yahuwah.
Do we need to wait for the last days to learn these things? I certainly hope not. Yet, that seems to be the way of many. Christianity certainly does not teach anyone these things. What they teach is against the ways of Yahuwah. They teach that the laws of Yahuwah are done away. They teach their own doctrine over the Word of Yahuwah. And they certainly refrain from walking in the light of Yahuwah. Such will never see the glory of Yahuwah. They will never see His Kingdom and they will never see eternal life. Yet, in their delusion, they have all confidence in the lie and the Grand Liar (HaSatan) to save them. Let it not be so with us.
