In this lesson we complete our study of the book of Daniel. Ironically, we are living in the very days that fulfill the writings of the last chapter in the book. All is about to be fulfilled and YOU and I are a part of it! What was hidden to Daniel is now open because Israel is back in her land, and the generation to see this is full grown and about to enter the Time Of Jacob's Trouble. Join the class as we parse the end of Daniels prophecies and examine what it will be like when Micheal is sent to stand for Israel to save them out of the most horrific time in the history of Earth.  If you are saved in Christ, you need to understand because we are to warn ALL about what is surely coming very soon. If you are NOT saved in Christ, and still refuse to receive God's provision - in truth - to make a way for your salvation, you should understand these prophecies because this is the time you will be entering into shortly. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/biblestudyweekly/message
Join us for the final part of this very timely lesson from the book of Daniel as we continue to learn the identifying characteristics of the rising final Antichrist of the last seven years of the Age. We'll examine the historical run-up to this final son of perdition. We'll look to Daniel's writings, other Scriptures and historical references  - even going back to the book of Genesis - to help us understand the Antichrist's lineage. You may be surprised to find out that one of the twelve tribes of Israel was actually prophesied to be the progenitor of the very bloodline through which the Antichrist will arise to bring about the seven-year Tribulation, the time of Jacob's Trouble.  --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/biblestudyweekly/message
Join us for a very timely lesson from the book of Daniel as we continue to learn the identifying characteristics of the soon coming, final Antichrist of the last seven years of history. Make no mistake: He is certainly alive, an adult, and already rising to prominence and power in the world.  God has revealed key historical information in the book of Daniel that was shut-up until this very time to identify the conditions and the persona that will lead you to understand the lead-up and unveiling of final Antichrist who will drive the world into its last seven years of history. God gave Daniel detailed, verifiable future information that is now documented history. We are to take advantage of this as that final generation this is offered to for wisdom and navigating how the end plays out. Listen to this lesson to learn details, and similarities of the history and types that tie together the two major Antichrists of this Age, Antiochus IV Epiphanies, and the soon-coming Antichrist that will cause the final abomination that causes desecration that Jesus warned about.  You can sense it for yourself with the unprecedented drive to bring humanity into complete enslavement  and global devastation! We are at the undeniable edge of the end the age. YOU must understand what God had hidden but now reveals at this time! --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/biblestudyweekly/message
The 69 weeks of years of the 70 Weeks of Daniel have already transpired. The Church age "gap" has arrived, and after 2,000 years, is about to expire; The official end of the church age, commencing with the rapture, is imminent. We - you - are of that final generation that Jesus Christ, Himself said would not pass away until ALL things be fulfilled. We are at the transition point, and ready to enter the final, 70th Week of Daniel's prophetic timeline of the end of this Age.  The final 70th week of years of the prophecy is so important that, about 4 years after Gabriel visited Daniel, a very different "messenger" was sent to him. And, this was not though just a dream or a vision again, but a real-life encounter! HINT: It took 21 days after Daniel's prayer for this most astounding visitor to arrive and deliver his message. Could this delay be indicative of the 21 centuries of the church age that separated the 69th Week of Years from this final, devastating 70th Week known as the Tribulation? Join the study as we begin to learn more detail about the importance of this message of the soon coming final 7 years in the prophetic clock of God's people, Israel - and its wonderfully brilliant messenger! --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/biblestudyweekly/message
It is the end of the Babylonian captivity. The time for the Jews to return to Jerusalem to rebuild the city and the temple has come, just as God promised. Daniel is starting to see a future again for his people! His heart is to know and understand, and he pleads with God to act on behalf of His people to free them as soon a His will allows. God quickly responds by giving him an astoundingly accurate timeline in coded form, called the 70 weeks of years.  One of the key prophecies of the Scriptures for determining the coming of Jesus Christ and the disposition of the Jews and the end of the Age, the Prophecy of Seventy Weeks is given to Daniel by an angel. This messenger informs him that seventy "sevens", or sets, or weeks of years have been decreed, and through this, gives him a detailed but cryptic timeline chronicling the end of the Babylonian captivity to the first coming, and the sacrifice of the promised Anointed One (Jesus Christ) in AD 33, to the end of the Age. Join us as we review and parse this amazing timeline of how God brings an end to the captivity, and his people back to Jerusalem. And even more, how He maps out for Daniel - especially for us at the end of the Age - the main events that lead to the very year Messiah is sacrificed on the cross, the church age, and the completion of judgment and final redemption of Israel very soon to come. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/biblestudyweekly/message
We continue in chapter 9, parsing Daniel's writings and the deep prophecies of world rule until our time now, the end of the age.  The main point of this piece is using Daniel as a prime example of the most effective way of drawing close to God in prayer. We learn from his example, that the righteous and humble, fervent, from-the-heart prayer does avail much! We'll see the result of prayer that is weighted with evidence that we are fully aware of the God to Whom we are speaking, the great, one and only true God. Daniel prays from the standpoint that prayer is willful submission and worship of the One and only God, the One who only can answer prayer. It becomes even more clear as we enter chapter 9 that we - you who are reading this now - are the only generation to have the ability to fully understand the book of Daniel's (and Revelation's) deepest and most mysterious secrets, now revealed to us - as part of this terminal generation! --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/biblestudyweekly/message
Join us as we continue parsing Daniel's vision of Gentile world rule. Here, he describes the battle between a goat and a two-horned ram for supremacy. This imagery describes world rule being transitioned from the Medo-Persian to the Greek empire. It's describes the beginning of the end-times thrust of the Hellenization of the world. The modern world we live, in its final phase before the end of the Age, is very heavily based on this transition.  What is Hellenism? Why is it considered the fulcrum point of world governance history?  Hellenization is the historical spread of ancient Greek culture, religion, and, to a lesser extent, language over peoples conquered by the Greeks, or brought into their sphere of influence, particularly during the Hellenistic period following the campaigns of Alexander the Great in the fourth century BC. The result of Hellenization was that elements of Greek origin combined in various forms and degrees with local elements, and these Greek influences spread from the Mediterranean basin as far east as modern-day Pakistan. In modern times, Hellenization has been associated with the adoption of modern Greek culture and the ethnic and cultural homogenization of Greece - and the world. Prophetically, the Hellenization of the world set the stage for the final act before the end. What is the final act? It is the crescendo of the Times Of The Gentiles through the follow-on Roman culture, and then it's rapid crash and destruction under the final Antichrist - who will be an export of this Hellenization/Roman system - when he comes on the scene.  The stage has been set. The curtain has risen. The play continues... Make no mistake: YOU and I are alive and in this theater by God's will, for such a time as this. We ARE witnessing the end of the Age and how it comes about. We ARE that terminal generation, And we have been assigned front-row seats! Keep you eyes open and keep watch! Christians are commanded to do so! --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/biblestudyweekly/message

In this lesson, we move forward to Daniel chapter 7, which chronicles Daniel's vision of the four beasts that rise up out of the sea of humanity. The images of the beasts speaks to four Gentile kingdoms to rule, in turn, as the world runs through to the end of this Age. If you have been learning with us, you understand that the chapters of the book of Daniel are not all in chronological order. Because of this, chapter 7 brings us back in time to before the the handwriting on the wall that officially ended Belshazzar's time, and that of the Babylonian empire.  As we further allow Scripture to give the full truth and correct our worldview through it, learn with the class now, as we examine this major prophetic vision and its implications in history and for the end of the Age. The very time you and I live in now.  Chapter 7 brings us back to the first year of Belshazzar's role as the king of Babylon. It is about 555 B.C. At that time, Daniel was given a highly prophetic dream as visions passed through his mind, while he was lying on his bed. God gave him this key vision and had him record the fullness of the dream. As he begins to write, we are immediately told that he sees four beasts rising out of the sea of nations of the earth: DA 7:2~3... "In my vision at night I looked, and there before me were the four winds of heaven churning up the great sea (of nations). Four great beasts, each different from the others, came up out of the sea... --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/biblestudyweekly/message
There are only a handful of constants throughout history that affect all people. The greatest of these is persecution. This is especially true, and most intense for those who are of God's chosen, whether Jew or Christian. This being the case, it is no wonder that the Scriptures have much to say about persecution, exhaustively detailing what it is, how it works and how it is dealt with by God and all those of God. Join the class as we continue in the book of Daniel and other places in the Bible to examine the why and how of persecution, its intended results and, most importantly, how God uses it to accomplish good in and for those affected by it.  It is important that you and I learn about the 'how's' and 'why's' of persecution because, if you are of God's people especially, you will experience it - sometimes extremely severely - in this life.: 2Ti 3:12~13  Yea, and all that will live godly in Christ Jesus shall suffer persecution.  2Ti 3:11...But out of them all the Lord delivered me.  2Ti 3:13 But evil men and seducers shall wax worse and worse, deceiving, and being deceived.    --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/biblestudyweekly/message
Join the class as we encounter one of the most popular stories of the Bible, Daniel and the lions' den. Most people have heard of this, but very few actually know what took place and even fewer understand the what and why behind it.  In this session we deeply examine and parse the entire important story. We review its greater meaning and purposes as one of a number of similar incidents in Scripture that help us understand a key, "scorched earth" battle plan of Satan. We'll learn what he still, to this very day, knows he must accomplish to win God's throne and destroy His rule forever. We already know that he will never be allowed victory. But more importantly, we learn through the Bible's historical documentation how God works in and through Satan's schemes to show His complete sovereignty and mastery over all.  Continue to learn with us and experience God's heart, mind, character and power in using all things to His glory and to effect His perfect plan of this age. We begin as Darius sets up his kingdom on behalf of the Persians and yet again, God bring Daniel into his "cabinet" as one of his top officials... --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/biblestudyweekly/message
The handwriting is on the wall. Babylon's end has finally come.  Join us as we learn in detail about how God timed and triggered the Gentile world government transition from the Babylonian kingdom "head of gold" to the Medo-Persian "chest and arms of silver". In this session, we study in full the fascinating back story of Belshazzar, the final king of Babylon, who was unceremoniously ousted by God's decree, written in His own Hand. We'll let Daniel introduce us to the end of the line of ancient Babylon's kingdom: Dan 5:23  But (you, Belshazzar) hast lifted up thyself against the Lord of heaven; and they have brought the vessels of his house before thee, and thou, and thy lords, thy wives, and thy concubines, have drunk wine in them; and thou hast praised the gods of silver, and gold, of brass, iron, wood, and stone, which see not, nor hear, nor know: and the God in whose hand thy breath is, and whose are all thy ways, hast thou not glorified:  Dan 5:24  Then was the part of the hand sent from him; and this writing was written.  Dan 5:25  And this is the writing that was written, MENE, MENE, TEKEL, UPHARSIN... --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/biblestudyweekly/message
Join the class as we move forward in our study of the book of Daniel. We continue as Daniel describes the disposition of king Nebuchadnezzar as the time is growing close to the demise of ancient Babylon.  We examine God's long-range plan for Babylon and its system as He brings king Nebuchadnezzar to insanity, but preserves him through it. We'll also continue to follow ancient Babylon's illustrious history through its decline and transition to the Medo-Persian empire - with its system still preserved. Finally, we'll take a look at the view of the Babylonian system from Nebuchadnezzar, through to the end of the age, where we are today. We'll see how the the insane madness of Nebuchadnezzar continued as part of that system into the time of the end, as governments try to bring about the final, state of a one world “tree” of dominion and religion under their Babylonian system. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/biblestudyweekly/message
The key to understanding what Daniel offers requires two main things: A functionally Hebraic mindset of the reader, and to understand Babylon, the key player of the Times of the Gentiles chronicled in the book. We have already, and now spend more time preparing the class to get the most out of the book of Daniel as we do these things. Join us now, as we continue to parse Babylon, and more specifically, king Nebuchadnezzar, in part 3 of this teaching. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/biblestudyweekly/message

We have already, and now spend more time preparing the class to get the most out of the book of Daniel as we do these things. Join us now, as we continue to parse Babylon. If we consider that Babylon is to Satan as Jerusalem is to God, then we do well to understand Babylon, its culture, its system and its line of kings as it pursues domination the earth for Satan.  Join the class as we continue to "front load" our understanding to better grasp the prophecies in the book of Daniel, and the fullness in their timeless meaning across the Age. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/biblestudyweekly/message
Join the class again as we continue setting the stage for our better understanding of the key prophetic book for the times of the Gentiles, the book of Daniel.  In this session we closely examine the Babylonian religious and economic system. The better you understand Babylon and its workings end-to-end, the better equipped you'll be to really understand the entire book of Daniel. The better equipped you'll be as you live your life as part of the final generation that is already seeing the now-open prophecies of this great book - and its mate, the book of revelation - come to pass! Prepare yourself to have your worldview corrected and greatly enhanced! As you listen to this, and the following lessons in this book, the world around you, right where you are, right now, will start to make a whole lot more sense!

What made God so very angry that He poured out such wrath upon Judah? They not only broke His weekly Sabbath, but... LEV 25:1 The LORD said to Moses on Mount Sinai, 2 "Speak to the Israelites and say to them: `When you enter the land I am going to give you, the land itself must observe a Sabbath to the LORD. 3 For six years sow your fields, and for six years prune your vineyards and gather their crops. 4But in the seventh year the land is to have a Sabbath of rest, a Sabbath to the LORD. Do not sow your fields or prune your vineyards… The Sabbath is meant as a commanded restorative time. Not only for Israel, the people, but also for Israel, the land! The land cannot make a choice for itself, so God had to kick out the people to provide the Sabbath rest for the land, in spite of their disobedience. He warned them before hand with all solemnity:  LEV 26:14 " `But if you will not listen to me and carry out all these commands, 15 and if you reject my decrees and abhor my laws and fail to carry out all my commands and so violate my covenant, 16 then I will do this to you: … The "this" God used to punish Judah for breaking the land Sabbaths was to use Babylon to dispossess them from the land.  Join the class as we continue our detail introduction to the times and seasons, and the evil Advisory of Babylon that set the stage for the book of Daniel. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/biblestudyweekly/message
Join the class as we continue our deep look into king Nebuchadnezzar's infamous vision of the statue of the "Times of the Gentiles". The vision is a prophecy of the march of the Gentile world governments from his time, all the way to the time we’re waiting for – the taking over of the Gentile-ruled world and the smashing of its legacy – The day of Jesus Christ! Listen-in as we learn about how God greatly used king Nebuchadnezzar and his Babylon as a tool to punish his people of Judea. We'll allow Daniel to help us understand how God arranged Babylon to be His agent to thoroughly crush Judea, destroy the Temple and cut off the line of the kings of Israel until the end of the Age. The times of Israel's burgeoning mastery of the world was paused in 605 B.C.  It was given over to what we still are in to today:  “The Times of the Gentiles”. And, it begins at the reign of Nebuchadnezzar. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/biblestudyweekly/message
