God said- close and seal the book until the time of the end.
The time of the end began in the early to mid 1800's.
The time of the end continues today.
How do we know the time of the end began? Because that book that was closed and sealed suddenly was unsealed and open. How do I know this? Because simultaneously people in various places around the globe began to comprehend the writings within that book. What never made sense to any one before, was miraculously unfolding and making a lot of sense.
Also, tell me why we could go from using horses as a main mode of transportation to having cars, planes, so on and so forth. The age of enlightenment occurred as a reality and a lot of advancements took off in the 1800's that for the prior 5800 or so years of the world's existence knowledge only increased very, very slowly. There came an increase in knowledge in such a way that there is truly no accounting for- such as why, why did it take so long? Why was it so rapid all of a sudden? How could mankind's mind be so dimmed they couldn't comprehend the scientific principles involved in so much? Yes, there were the occasional people who were brilliant and made crude designs of future technology. There were those who were so beyond their time in thinking that they were deemed wizards and witches, abnormal and frightening to the common person. When mankind finally embraced the wellspring of knowledge given to them and the barriers were removed they gained knowledge at an inexplicable rate. KNOWLEDGE INCREASED. Not only in the secular world but in the spiritual/religious realm.
The book was unsealed and opened to comprehension…
JESUS told us to look to the book of Daniel. Do we look or when we read it without the intellectual/historical/Bible scholar's input, do we close the Book of Daniel quickly because it's a gibberish to us? Where is our intense desire to search God's word as a hidden treasure we have to find? You say the Book of Daniel is Old Testament, I say JESUS POINTED US TO THAT BOOK! I say the Book of Revelations is a complimentary book to Daniel and the Book of Revelations is the last book in the New Testament! You say, the Book of Revelations is incomprehensible as well? I say that Satan wants to keep us blind, to keep us from comprehension! These books of prophecy are OPENED to understanding and it is our DUTY to read them! We have a wealth of knowledge at our fingertips today that forty years ago didn't exist. We can search in ways that it's all but impossible for anyone to not be able to find truth if they truly desire to know that truth.
Forty years ago I had my own understanding opened to the truth. When knowledge was given to me that I didn't quite believe, I went to my local library and I searched the books to make sure the things being told to me were true. I didn't just sit there and nod my head, smiling and taking in everything without any questioning. I didn't accept things said blindly, I didn't take them at face value at all. I searched for truth! I searched for comprehension and I PRAYED and PRAYED and PRAYED some more!
I'm asking you to PRAY, PRAY, PRAY right now and study! Be willing to read, to study, to search out the truth. Don't dismiss things before you do so, if you do it's at your own peril, your eternal peril.
Jesus' ministry and death were predicted by date. To get to the date however isn't a straight forward journey, but a prophetic one. This is a journey of faith, of digging into the word of God. This journey has a beginning, middle and an end and it is all tied in together so that we need to study, not just have it given to us and left at that. We shouldn't want just a single fact, but all the facts. All the truth.
To this end, I want you to have a very similar study to the one I went through which God used to open my eyes to truth.
Please, whether it takes a week or two or a month or two just to go through each of these studies… DO IT! There are blanks for YOU to fill because you need to be in the Word, searching it for yourselves! Let the Holy Spirit work in you, please, please! By the grace of God may we please have understanding, please. All through Jesus Christ our Lord and Savior now and forever! Amen!
