Jesus did not/will not confirm a covenant for a 7 year period
You can throw in any arbitrary number, yet it does not make it a valid argument. Daniel's prophetic 70 weeks, for the coming of Messiah, is for him to confirm the Covenant of God with many Gentile nations, inclusive of faithful Jews who did receive him and this, I testify as a faithful Christian, Jesus fulfilled 100%.
Are you implying that Jesus failed to confirm God's Holy Covenant?
Well, please say it, if you believe so.....because your argument, regardless of any arbitrary numbers in your claim, it really comes down to this question, a Yes or a No, as to whether Jesus succeeded in fulfilling exactly what the Father had sent him out to do as His Salvation Agent.
Jesus did not/will not break that covenant and send forth a command to kill all Jews in Judea as the prince that breaks that covenant will do
As I stated previously and throughout all my postings, that Jesus fulfilled 100% what he was set out to do. In the middle of the prophetic week, that was determined conditionally upon Daniel's People, within the context of culture and context of situation of their generation, to whom the prophecy of building up of Jerusalem was intended for, he was crucified for the sins of many, hence he accomplished the mission of being the permanent atoning replacement for the Old Covenant sacrifices, that were obligatory before the Cross, but were not legally admissible (valid) as far as God the Father is concerned.
The Jews failed to comply with the conditional contract of God through his Salvation Agent and in this respect, the desolate house (unbelieving Jews) who rejected their messiah were judged by their own words by God himself.
They even testified before Jesus what should become of them, in the following parable......
The Parable of the Tenants
33“Listen to another parable: There was a landowner who planted a vineyard. He put a wall around it, dug a winepress in it and built a watchtower. Then he rented the vineyard to some farmers and moved to another place.
34When the harvest time approached, he sent his servants to the tenants to collect his fruit.
35“The tenants seized his servants; they beat one, killed another, and stoned a third.
36Then he sent other servants to them, more than the first time, and the tenants treated them the same way.
37Last of all, he sent his son to them. ‘They will respect my son,’ he said.
38“
But when the tenants saw the son, they said to each other, ‘This is the heir. Come, let’s kill him and take his inheritance.’ 39So they took him and threw him out of the vineyard and killed him.
The Anti-Christ Jews killed Jesus according to the testimony of Jesus.
40“Therefore, when the owner of the vineyard comes, what will he do to those tenants?”
41“
He will bring those wretches to a wretched end,” they replied, “and he will rent the vineyard to other tenants, who will give him his share of the crop at harvest time.” (Matthew 21:33-41)
God allowed them to be judged by their own admission and especially when they said, the blood of God's Christ be on us and on our children. So the rigthoues God respected their wishes and executed the righteous judgment upon them. It is befitting don't you think?
Parable of the Great Feast
1Jesus also told them other parables. He said,
2“The Kingdom of Heaven can be illustrated by the story of a king who prepared a great wedding feast for his son.
3When the banquet was ready, he sent his servants to notify those who were invited. But they all refused to come!
4“So he sent other servants to tell them, ‘The feast has been prepared. The bulls and fattened cattle have been killed, and everything is ready. Come to the banquet!’
5But the guests he had invited ignored them and went their own way, one to his farm, another to his business.
6Others seized his messengers and insulted them and killed them.
7“
The king was furious, and he sent out his army to destroy the murderers and burn their City. 8And he said to his servants, ‘The wedding feast is ready, and the guests I invited aren’t worthy of the honor. 9Now go out to the street corners and invite everyone you see.’
10So the servants brought in everyone they could find, good and bad alike, and the banquet hall was filled with guests.
11“But when the king came in to meet the guests, he noticed a man who wasn’t wearing the proper clothes for a wedding.
12‘Friend,’ he asked, ‘how is it that you are here without wedding clothes?’ But the man had no reply.
13Then the king said to his aides, ‘Bind his hands and feet and throw him into the outer darkness, where there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth.’
14“For many are called, but few are chosen.” (Matthew 22:1-14)
Those who were originally invited were the Jews and yet we have God, prophetically pointing to 70AD, that he would confirm his Holy Covenant with the many Gentile nations (Daniel 9:27) and then he would send out his army (people of the Prince Daniel 9:26) to destroy those murderers of his Son and burned their city (Jerusalem).
So many witnesses of scripture and so much historical evidence and yet why not just believe Jesus what he said would happen?
The people of Jesus will not destroy the sanctuary of the city
Nonsense!
Go back and re-read what future to their generation (context of situation) prophetic parables Jesus gave to the desolate without Christ Anti-Christs.
those that say that this event happened with nero or at any time in the past and believe there will not be a event as this in the future have never been able to give a full account with full details of events of Jesus returning to earth and establishing HIS Kingdom on earth - which is another thing you say will not happen
Jesus according to Apostle Paul is reigning through his body of believers, his Church and will continue to do so, by making subjects of the world through his Cross, until he destroys all dominion, authority and power. When he comes he will destroy/abolish death itself and will then become subject to the Father, as his Cross as the salvation Agent has made subjects of the world, all of whom who were written in the book of life, before the creation of the world. Then at his return, the books will be opened and no harvest continues last this point. People are either saved through the power of his Cross or they are not.
So your stripped down version does not fit what the bible shows and ends up making no sense
Can you see that this is an unwarranted charge and one that is very easy to dismiss, without even giving an answer in reply, because it is plain to see. Obviously!
