The Last Seven Years

“Seventy weeks are determined upon thy people and upon the 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 (Daniel 9:24). Sixty-nine of these seventy weeks were fulfilled when Christ was crucified (Daniel 9:26). Only one week, which represents (the last seven years) is yet to be fulfilled. It appears that God’s people will have at least 3½ years to preach this gospel of His kingdom in all the world before the great tribulation begins. “This gospel of the kingdom shall be preached in all the world for a witness unto all nations; and then shall the end (the great tribulation) come”. MATTHEW 24:14 The great tribulation is going to begin when Satan and his son, the anti-christ, along with their followers (Satan’s organization), take control of the world. Satan’s organization will have 3½ years to spread death and destruction throughout the world to rid the world of God’s people. “And there was given unto him a mouth speaking great things and blasphemies; and power was given unto him to continue forty and two months (3½ years). REVELATION 13:5 This means that the last seven years will feature 3½ years of the spreading of this gospel of the kingdom in ALL the world followed by 3½ years of extreme persecution of God’s people in all the earth (the great tribulation). God will allow Satan to scatter and overcome His people once the great tribulation begins. REVELATION 11:7 As well, God is going to step in and end Satan’s ride after 3½ years before Satan and his followers can destroy all life on earth. Every one of God’s people, who are faithful unto death or the rapture, will then be resurrected/rapture. This will all happen at the end of the great tribulation but before the wrath of God and the return of Christ. Everyone, who is resurrected (the 1st resurrection) or rapture, will rule and reign with Christ for 1000 years right here on earth.

Please Note: The last 7 years is to begin as follows, “And he (the anti-christ) shall confirm the covenant (peace agreement?) for one week (the last seven years); and in the midst of the week (3½ years later) he shall cause the sacrifice to cease.” DANIEL 9:27 This is when the anti-Christ stops the daily sacrifice and sets up the Abomination of Desolation, and this is when the “GREAT TRIBULATION” begins. MATTHEW 24:15, 21
