Atkin said:
Do you have difficulty understand the MEANING OF AT THAT TIME in Daniel 12:1
I REPEAT AT THAT TIME
AT THAT SAME TIME --- both resurrection to life AND AT THAT SAME TIME RESURRECTION to damnation.
It is amazing to see the efforts you make at twisting the scripture.
If you do not understand Revelation 20:5 and Rev 20:7, avoid misplacing them in Daniel 12.
This is so simple to prove.
DANIEL SAID AT THAT TIME.....AT THAT TIME SOME WILL RISE TO LIFE AND SOME TO EVERLASTING SHAME AND CONTEMPT.
READ DANIEL 12:1-2
Daniel 12:1. And at that time shall Michael stand up, the great prince which standeth for the children of thy 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 thy PEOPLE SHALL BE DELIVERED EVERYONE that shall be FOUND WRITTEN IN THE BOOK.
Daniel 12:2. “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.”
AT THAT TIME.... NOT AT TIMES BUT AT THE SAME TIME.....
THE GOOD PEOPLE ARE DELIVERED (some to everlasting life) AND AT THE SAME TIME THE BAD ARE CONDEMNED (and some to shame and everlasting contempt.”
AT THAT SAME TIME
AT THAT TIME...... do you get it now??
This is elementary English.
Daniel 12:2. “And many of them that sleep in the dust of the earth shall awake, [AT THE SAME TIME] some to everlasting life, and some to shame and everlasting contempt.” THE SAME TIME ..NO TIME GAP
DANIEL 12:2 THE SAME TIME SOME TO LIFE -- AND SOME TO SHAME.
Do not reply to this post since your point is baseless.
The Bible will not be selectively quoted to suit you.
Greetings folks.
Atkin accuses me of the following.
Quote “If you do not understand Revelation 20:5 and Rev 20:7, avoid misplacing them in Daniel 12.”
He has a very short memory of how miserably he failed to answer the few questions I asked in an earlier post!
I am still waiting for Atkin, to answer them and give us all an explanation of the questions asked regards the “2300 evening and morning,” the “1260 days,” “1290 days,” the “1335 days,” also the “time times and a half,” how long between the day of Atonement and the Passover, and the “little season”
Atkin was as silent as a mouse!
What does that tell me?
It tells me that when it comes down to detail and understanding,,, there isn’t much going in there,,, hello!
Let’s see if I “misplace” or misapply Daniel and Revelation.
I look at the intent of the Bible and to do this I use parallels and patterns.
You may ask yourselves, is what I do sound and reasonable?
If I find that there is biblical harmony and that the intent of the Bible is clear then that is safe, what I do not do, is add anything that is not related to the verse of scripture or add words to twist it around, as Atkin has accused me of doing, yet has done the very same thing himself.
I will use capital letters to emphasise the intent of the Bible verse only.
What is the TRIBULATION PERIOD? Please NOTE. The same story is recorded by Matt 24, Mark 13, and Luke 21, the intent is the same, and how is all this related to “the time of the end,” spoken of by Daniel
Matt 24:3. And as he sat upon the mount of Olives, the disciples came unto him privately, saying, Tell us, when shall these things be? and what shall be THE SIGN OF THY COMING, and of the END OF THE WORLD?
Part of the answer Jesus gave was that we should watch and pray.
Keep our eyes open, pray always and be alert to the signs indicating the second advent. We all want to be able to stand in front of Jesus when He returns.
Luke 21:36. Watch ye therefore, and pray always, that ye may be accounted WORTHY TO ESSCAPE all these things that shall come to pass, and to stand before the Son of man.
The following tribulation period is hard to imagine. It is so bad that the days that are concerned with it will have to be shortened, otherwise nobody would be saved, so for God’s people’s sake the time is going to be cut.
Mark 13: 19. For in those days shall be AFFLICTION, such as was not from the beginning of the creation which God created unto this time, neither shall be. 20And except that the LORD HAD SHORTENED those DAYS, NO FLESH should be saved: but for the ELECTS SAKE, whom he hath CHOSEN, he hath SHORTENED THE DAYS.
Jesus mentions “DAYS” Now my mind tells me, that I should follow up and see if I can find out about who and what is going to happen and where and for how long?
Part of the answer given by Jesus in the following verse.
Because this thread is about the abomination of desolation, I should follow that course.
Matt 24: 15 When ye therefore shall see the abomination of desolation, spoken of by Daniel the prophet, stand in the holy place, (whoso readeth, let him understand
Now the first thing any Bible student should do is listen to his or her Master/Teacher, and go straight to Daniel. Does that sound reasonable?
Of course.
Daniel 11: 31. Speaks of God’s people being strong during this dreadful period.
Daniel 11: 31. And arms shall stand on his part, and they shall pollute the sanctuary of strength, and shall TAKE AWAY THE DAIL, and they shall place the abomination that maketh desolate. 32And such as do wickedly against the covenant shall he corrupt by flatteries: but the people that do know their God shall be STRONG, and do exploits.
When I go to Daniel, I find out about the who and for how long. Daniel is told about the duration periods involved in each of the things that are to occur. We know that this thing involves the daily being taken away and the abomination that makes it desolate.
I am looking for the reason for all of this and how long it is going to go on for.
The Bible tells me, for how long the set up is going to last. I am not lying or making it up, it is what the Bible says.
Daniel 12:11. And from the time THE DAILY shall be TAKEN AWAY, and the ABOMINATION that MAKETH DESOLATE SET UP, there shall be a thousand two hundred and ninety days.
This evil thing that is “set up” can only go on for 1290 days, about 3 ½ years.
It could be worse it could have been longer.
When we go to the next verse of Daniel we are told about a blessing.
Daniel 12:12. Blessed is he that WAITETH, and COMETH to the thousand three hundred and five and thirty days.
What blessing comes for those who wait? Daniel is told rest. This could refer to his ultimate death and resurrection at the “end of the days.”
Daniel 12: 13. But go thou thy way till the end be: for thou shalt rest, and stand in thy lot at the end of the days.
Now again I ask, what blessing?
If we are patient we can find the biblical answers sooner or later.
Rev 19:1-6. God’s people receive salvation as the Bible says.
The Bible states that “many” of the Saints are raised.
