Thanks for tuning in to the broadcast. We’re looking forward to being with you every day here at Bible Line and of course today is Friday, but we’re going to be playing the best of tomorrow and Sunday in the local area and we’re on the internet every day so you can still catch these programs as often as you like.
We’re coming to you live from our studios right here in Tampa, Florida at the Calvary Community Church.

We’re excited about this coming Thursday, 9-11, September 11th. Gershan Solomon will be coming here from Israel. And he will be presenting, of course, the story about how He’s been cutting the stones and how close who might be to the building of the third temple that we believe happens immediately following the rapture. So, wow, we’re close to the Lord’s return and I think this will be very exciting to be here at 9-11. If you can and if you can’t we’ll be recording that.

A total of 17 days if you do the extension as well. We have people already calling in here, welcome to call in at 1-800-576-3771. That’s 1-800-576-3771. If you have your Bibles, get it out and we’ll be taking a look at the Scriptures and we hope that you’ll follow along with us as we look at the Bible.
Then we’ll be of course taking your questions here on the program and we hope that you’ll Tell your friends about this program and join us all week long and on the internet over the weekend as well Well turn to Matthew chapter 24 here. We have an amazing passage where Jesus comes to Jerusalem He’s rejected and in chapter 23 He overlooks the city of Jerusalem He says here, O Jerusalem, Jerusalem, thou it kills the prophets and stands them which are sent to thee, how often would I gather thy children together, even as a hen gathers her chickens under her wings, and you would not.
Then he predicts the destruction of the second temple. He says, Behold your house. The house is the sanctuary, the temple. That’s the second temple. It’s the temple that is oftentimes known as Herod’s temple. That was destroyed, maybe 70. And he says, Your house is left under your decident. For barely I say unto you, you shall not see me henceforth. Tell you shall say, Blessed or happy is he the cometh in the name of the Lord. Well guess what? His name is Yeshua, and Yeshua in English is Jesus.
And so in the television of Israel recognizes Jesus as being God who would take on flesh that would be their Savior. They are not going to see Jesus again. So Christ went back to heaven, but during the tribulation period after the Rapture millions will get saved. millions of Jews will get saved and they will be saying blessed or happy is he that cometh in the name of the Lord and what does that mean? That means that they come to God through Jesus the Son.
Jesus said in John 14, 6, I am the way, the truth and the life, no man cometh unto the Father but by me. So when you come to the Father, if you come in any other name or in any other way by your works or by your church membership or by any other name, you’re not going to make heaven. You won’t be able to come. But blessed or happy is the one that comes to the Father in the name of the Lord or Jesus, Yeshua, because you will be granted entrance.
Again, let me quote John 14, 6, Jesus said, I am the way, the truth in the life, and no man cometh unto the Father but by me. So Christ is the one, and when you come in His name you are able to come into heaven. Well then the next couple of verses in Matthew 24, He is in the temple area. The disciples are admiring the beautiful buildings of Herod’s temple, and they are looking around in Christ tells the disciples in verse 2, he says, in verse 2 of Matthew 24, see you have all these things, barely I say unto you, there shall not be left here, one stone upon another that shall not be thrown down.
So he predicts here the destruction of the second temple. By the way, when the Romans came in 8070 and destroyed that temple, they pushed the stones of the temple off of the temple mount and they fell down into the valley below and you can see them to this very hour, many of them standing exactly as they fell and where they fell. It’s standing really to think about it. This is an amazing prophecy fulfilled that you can see with your eyes today.
We’ll know that in 2000 years now I’ve gone by and the Jews have gone back to the land and Jesus predicts in Matthew 24 here a third temple and He tells us that the Antichrist will defile that temple. In verse 15 of Matthew 24 when asked what would be the sign of His coming when He comes the second time, it says here when You therefore shall see the abomination of desolation spoken of by Daniel the Prophet, stand in the holy place, who so readeth of him understand.
In other words, the Antichrist will come into the rebuilt temple, the third one, and he will place his image there. When that happens, it’s by the way in the middle of the seven-year tribulation period that will follow the rapture. And it says in verse 21, for then shall be great tribulation, such as was not since the beginning of the world to this time no more shall ever be. In other words, the worst time in history that will ever occur in all of history is still ahead.
It is going to happen after the Rapture during the Tribulation Period and we find that the Antichrist will mark the beginning of the second half of that seven-year period by entering the temple and placing his image there. And it tells us here that then there will be great tribulation. And we also learn that Jewish people need to start fleeing for their lives because the Antichrist will come after them. In verse 16 it says then, which be in Judea, flee into the mountains.
Judea is the area around Jerusalem. This is the area where the tribe of Judah settled and this is where Jerusalem is and it says you need to flee. Now to flee into the mountains means to flee over to the country of Jordan and in southern Jordan there’s a city already ready to go carved out of the rocks for the Jews to flee to where God will miraculously feed them and water them there for the last three and a half years of the tribulation period.
And it says here, let him, which is on the housetop, not come down to take anything out of his house. In other words, there will be no time for you to pack your suitcase. If you hear the announcement, you’re listening to the radio perhaps, and you hear how the Antichrist has gone into the temple and placed his image. Don’t even pack your suitcase. One for the mountains. It says let him, which is in the field, not return back to get his clothes, but he needs to aim his tractor for the mountains of Jordan and won.
What I find very, very interesting is that the density has been receding because they are not allowing water from the Jordan and from the Sea of Galilee to come down anymore because water is so precious using it for irrigation. So the level of the Dead Sea is dropping. And guess what? There is exposed today a natural sandbar that runs diagonally across the Dead Sea. And if you draw a line between Jerusalem and the Dead Sea, that sandbar is a shortcut for the Jews to flee directly down to the Rock City of Petra.
We’ll be going there in this coming trip and you’ll see forty square miles of city carved right out of the rock. A place where the Jews will flee and according to Revelation chapter 12, God will feed them there again as he once did in the wilderness before. Apparently he’ll use manna. He’ll bring water forth out of the rock and God will spare them and keep them there for The last three and a half years when the Antichrist is out there trying to kill as many of the Jews as he possibly can.
We live here in exciting times. Again, that’s why I’m reminding you next Thursday on September 11th, we’re going to have Gersh on Solomon right here at our headquarters and he’ll be discussing the building of the Third Temple. He has been cutting the stones ever since the Six-Day War. And really everything is ready. We’re excited about everything being prepared. That’ll be at 7 p.m. on the 11th of September. That’s 9-11. And we hope that you’ll come and bring your friends.
It ought to be a very fascinating evening. So the book of Matthew here talks about this very same event. The temple will be built. Jesus predicts the second temple being destroyed. out a stone of standing upon another where it stood and that has been literally fulfilled and then they ask the question, well when will you come back again? 994 And when he is asked that question he talks about a third temple that will be there in Jerusalem on the Temple Mount that Christ will return to and cleanse after the Antichrist is first defiled.
We are living in most exciting days. I hope you have trusted Jesus as your Savior. Again, most people that claim that they are Christian, we are not because they have never really totally trusted Christ as their Savior. And unless you trust Christ and Christ alone, apart from any human contribution or work, you will not be saved. Salvation is none of works. It’s none of yourself. It’s the gift of God. received it the moment you believe. And I had never heard that in the church I was raised in.
But the night that I did see it in the Bible, I said, Lord, I’ll take you up on your free gift of eternal life. And I trust Jesus Christ alone is my only means of reaching heaven as my Savior. And you know from that moment on, I’ve known that I was saved because The Bible promises that all who would trust Christ. I’m going to go to the phone lines that if you want that number it’s 1-800-576-3771. We’re going to go to Sean and Sean is in Chattanooga, Tennessee.
Sean, welcome to Bibleline. You’re on the air. I have a question. I’m just wondering, is there are part as questions to be any way at all involved in politics or voting or any of this? Is that all our time in the world system? Might approving, especially if the, well, when you consider our government now how corrupt it is. Do we, in other words, is this necessary that we should ask questions vote? Is that necessarily, you know? Well, I think the privilege we have if you read Romans 13 were to pray for kings and for leaders and those that rule over us and and We’re to submit ourselves to the laws and rules of our government and the Bible tells us that We should pay our taxes and so on so yes, I believe that we have an Opportunity there to maybe have a voice, but
I know it’s difficult nowadays when the choices are Not clear cut. When neither candidate apparently wants to pull question values. Well, this is the problem when you talk about abortion and same-sex marriages and these things, it’s very difficult. It’s amazing to compromise that we see out there today. Ultimately, the Bible says that God is the one that puts people in power and sometimes he puts the basis of men in power over the kingdoms of this world. So when we get the big picture, we can sit back and relax and say, well God is the one ultimately that allows a bad leader sometimes to be elected and be in power.
But we do have a say so we can cast a vote which is wonderful to know that we can have a part in choosing who will be the leader over us and I think we ought to take advantage of that opportunity. I think we should vote. Sean I think it will help that helps and thank you for your call to that. Alright. But we Daniel Daniel talks about God as the one that establishes He sets up kings and takes down kings and and ultimately he’s going to allow a very wicked ruler To come into power here as we reproach the Lord’s return So that’s a part of the plan and he’ll be the end of Christ And he’s gone.
All right. We’re now gonna go to Bill in Lansing, Michigan bill. Welcome to Bibleline drink. Yeah, Bill Yeah, I want to make a comment. It doesn’t just say in the Bible somewhere. Well, exactly. The book of Revelation chapter 6 talks about the four horsemen. And each one is the Antichrist. He first comes on a white horse, a bringing peace. He looks like a man who’s going to bring peace and be a good guy. Then the next thing, you know, he’s riding a red horse which speaks of war and shitting of blood and then you see the pale horse which speaks of death and so obviously the inner Christ will come on the scene at the very beginning looking like a peacemaker but he really won’t be.
Okay, here’s something interesting. On neither floor, McCain or Abressing, the Muslims have an old wives deal, how you’d phrase it, maybe a myth, that Muhammad flew a white flying horse and then he in turn flew You know what the name of that horse was? Barack. Barack. Yes, this is interesting. And what I like to know is what the last name Obama means because they put meaning to their words. Yes, indeed. Well, it’s interesting. And that’s what the wait and say.
wait and see how it all plays out. I just know we’re in the last days and we’re watching it all play out in the Bible of course, tells us how it’s going to happen and we’re seeing it happen. Thank you Bill for calling in. That was Bill from Lansing, Michigan. We have a couple of all-faire questions here, and we’ll try to catch some of those as we can also. We have Barbara in Little Falls, New York, and she says, if two different people each have a sick child and they pray for them, and one of them dies, is this God’s will.
Did God take one of them? And I have to believe the answer is yes. But how wonderful that a child below the age of accountability will go directly to heaven. And sometimes the taking of that child can wake up the family and the loved ones that are left behind so that they seek and find the Lord. I’ve seen many times when there is the loss of a family member and oftentimes it’s the believer that’s taken or goes. The rest of the family then follow in that they seek out the truth and they come to know the Lord.
So certainly God has a plan, but I would have to say you must accept that God is the one that ultimately allows for that to happen. We have Troy in the land Florida and Troy welcome to Bibleline you are on air Yes, good morning, Dr. Hank. I love your ministry and could you tell me about the antichrist and and from the I?
Believe that that’s a strong hint in Genesis chapter 49. We have Jacob his name was changed to Israel blessing his children and we find that he tells it prophetically through the Holy Spirit something about each one of them and it tells us clearly that it’s for the last days, the latter days. And Regent, this is 49, but we find that he unfolds that the Messiah would come out of the tribe of Judah and then right after that it talks about the serpent would come out of the tribe of Dan.
So we believe that the Antichrist will come out of the tribe of Dan and that of course Jesus did come out of the tribe of Judah. In the book of Revelation, Jesus is called in Revelation 5.5, the lion of the tribe of Judah. Of course, lion being the king that would come forth to rule over Israel, and he comes out of the tribe of Judah. But the Antichrist comes out of the tribe of Dan. Is that any way that Barak would be a part of the tribe of Dan?
Well, we don’t know exactly, but you know his white grandmother is Jewish. That makes him Jewish. I guess if you had the capability of doing a search on his ancestry, maybe you could pull up something. But he definitely has Jewish blood in him. And if you have a Jewish mother, the claim is that you are then Jewish. And we know the Barak does have that. OK. I did not know that he was any at any time Jewish. He doesn’t practice that.
You can search it out on the internet and just go check out his family members. But you’ll notice in according to the Prophet Daniel that he would not regard the God of his fathers. That would be Abraham Isaac and Jacob. So he doesn’t worship the God of Israel, the God of the Bible. But interestingly, he has that Jewish blood in him and it’s something to think about. Yes, and so when we got you out and the Antichrist is not really revealed until after we have gone.
So we won’t know for sure. We can only speculate this side of the rapture. Thank you, Dr. Aye. Okay, let’s keep looking for Christ. He’s coming and we believe he’s coming soon. Dave and plant city and Dave welcome to Bibleline you’re on the air. Good morning Dr. Hank. How are you doing today? Good. You’re on the air. Go ahead Dave. Yes sir. Could you explain I think it’s Jim’s are able. It’s not a broad statement. Alright. If you read verse one there’s only one conception but she bore two children from that one conception.
So we believe Cain and Abel were twins. And Eve thought, according to Genesis 4.1, that her firstborn son, which was Cain, was the Messiah. He said, I’ve gotten them in. He was the Godman. Of course, he was mistaken. We know that Cain was one who was of that wicked one, Satan. He killed Abel because Abel was probably the ones who the Messiah would come. But then God replaced Abel with Seth so that the line of the Messiah could be continued.
But they were twins. Hope that helps. Thank you, Dave. It was Dave out in the plant city. We’re coming up on the end of the first half hour. Again, Bibleline is listed as a portal and we could use your help in September here. We still have a little bit behind and we just need our listeners to step up and help us if you can. And that will just really take a lot of pressure off. We don’t want to cancel a station and we don’t want to drop anything.
So we just need to have your help so that we can maintain what we’re doing and reach out as far as we can with the Gospel of Christ. So if you could call and offer to give a gift by credit card over the phone, that would be greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance. God bless you if you can do that. Otherwise, just pray for us. We do believe that God answers prayer and we appreciate those prayers. We’re going to take a break now.
We’ll come back and do a second and a half hour. So keep your radio tuned right where it is and after we have this short break we will come back and do the second half hour and if you have a question you can dial this up and get on the air with us. 1-800-576-3771 and right now we are going to go to break and we will be right back.
Don’t go away Bibleline will be back in a moment. Give us a call at 1-800-576-3771. That’s 1-800-576-3771. I’m Dr. Englund from It’s So Good to Be With You Today and thank you again for tuning into the broadcast. We are excited about Gershahn’s Psalm and being here on the 11th of September, Thursday night at 7 p.m. He’s going to be talking to us about the building of the Third Temple. All the stones are really, they’re almost everything I think has been done for the building of the Third Temple.
It’s just a matter of a political decision allowing for the temple to be built. I think it will be built in a very short period of time. My Gershaun believes in about 48 hours it can be put up. So we’ll see what happens right after the Rapture 1 will. So if you can not come or you can order the CD or DVD of that event and we’ll be recording it, you can be able to join us that way if you’d like to.
By the way, this is Friday and if you don’t have a church home, you can visit our worship service Sunday morning on the Internet. Go to our website Bible Be bringing the worship service to you people all over the world are able to tune in to it and are enjoying it So I hope you’ll join us as well for our worship service Of course if you’re in the area, please come by and join us for the live service and actually be here present with us Also, if you’re thinking about Israel and I hope you do think about Israel if the Lord doesn’t come this year We’ll plan to go in February to Israel or be trip number 16 for me And if you just call and leave your name and address we’ll send that brochure out We’ll send it out today and then you can study it over and see if you can’t make plans to

We’re going to be joined and do part two now, so keep your radio tuned right where it is.
Would you like to call Bibleline and ask Dr. Lindstrom a question? You can. Just pick up your phone and dial 1-800-576-3771. Now here again is… and his doctor Hank Lynch from right we’re back from that break and this is my blind it’s great to be with you and welcome to the program we’re coming to you live from Tampa from our studios right here in Tampa Florida at the Calvary Community Church we’re on the pastor and we’re very excited about coming up next week next third the at seven o’clock in the evening we have Gersh on Solomon he lives in Jerusalem he’s coming here and he has been cutting the stones for the third temple that we have been talking about and this is really a significant event.
We know that right after we leave a third temple will be established and Christ will come back to that third temple and actually enter it. So if you want to come and actually meet and hear and shake hands and talk to the person who might be building the temple that Jesus will return to. He’s going to be here Thursday night at seven o’clock and I hope you’ll come on by. We’re going to try to record that on CD and DVD and you can get that later and listen to it if you can’t get over but we hope you’ll come and join us with that wonderful evening is coming up September 11th at 7 p.m.
that’s next Thursday. It’ll be here before you know it and by the way if you’re in the area join us for our Sunday morning worship and if you can’t you can always go into the website and click on the archives and there’s a year’s worth of sermons you’ll be able to watch and enjoy as often as you like. Well we’re gonna go to the fun ones here we have Eric in Tampa, Florida and Eric welcome to Bibleline you’re on the air.
Well, yeah, I have to get on the air. Is it the doctor? Yep. We’re talking about Obama and talking about the end of the world. Now they’ve been predicting the end of the world since they are people so convinced the end of, I mean, it’s coming the same thing like a many times over like, you know, the apocalypse has come like this. Well, that’s a good, it’s a very good question. And we’re not talking about the end of the world.
We’re talking about the Rapture. The next event I got was programmed is where Christ will come back and snatch out all the believers, and then there will be seven years that will occur on the earth that will be the darkest hours of human history. And it’s really the last seven years of the Old Testament age, and the Jews will be back in the land for that day. And because they’re back there right now, we believe that this is an anticipation of that event.
And we know that they will build their temple and offer sacrifices again, the fact that They have every intention of doing that and have been working on it for years. Let’s just know that perhaps we’re very close. At the end of that seven years Christ will come back and He will bring peace on earth, good will toward men and He’ll rule over the earth and He’ll rule over the Jews as their king and over all the other nations as king of kings and Lord of Lords and there’s going to be peace on earth for a thousand years.
It’s going to be a wonderful time on the earth and at the end of that thousand years then he will destroy the Earth. So even if Christ raptured us out today, the Earth would be around another thousand and seven years. So we’re not talking about the end of the world, but we are talking about the coming of Christ to snatch out the believers at the event called the Rapture. And I think the signs are everywhere. It talks about when that seven year tribulation period comes, the world would come to war over the Middle East.
And that’s It’s really because of the oil God said he would put hooks in the jaws of the nations to drag them into the Middle East and that hook I think is oil. I think it’s pretty obvious today. That’s why the nations are concerned about them at least. And the world’s going to go to war and Christ will come back and defeat the armies of this world and establish peace on earth. Good world toward men. All right, thank Dr.
You’re so welcome. Thank you for calling Eric. That was Eric calling in and we now have Julian calling in from Tampa Julian. Welcome to Bibleline your own ear. Hi Dr. Lindstrom. This is Julian. Thank you for taking my call. Just to kind of add to the other callers question as well. It’s another question. What type of characteristics will the Antichrist have? Barack Obama, a lot of people claim that he has those characteristics. And I know that you have all the info on that exactly what his ties, his roots will be from.
Can you just answer on that please? I’m going to hang up and listen. If you go on my website and you look up Dr. Linson’s articles, there’s one that I’ve written that gives about 25 things about the Antichrist. One of the things he’s going to do, and I’ll read this from Daniel, it’s going to be chapter 7 of Daniel and almost there. It says in Daniel 7 verse 25 that the antichrist shall speak great words against the Most High.
He shall wear out the saints of the Most High, get ready now. It says, then think to change, think to change times and laws. and they shall be given into his hand until a time and time and the dividing of a time. So one of the things he’s going to do is radically bring about radical changes. And certainly that seems to be one of the things that he’s for. And I believe the laws concerning marriage that it will no longer be limited to a man and a woman.
And also laws concerning abortion and so on. All these laws will be changed. There’s lots of laws that will be, I think, brought into effect by the Antichrist. And so this is an interesting, interesting verse. We also know he’ll be a great speaker, and people will just be silent and listen when he speaks. And so he’ll be a great orator, and he’ll have charismatic qualities. So I think some of those things really do fit. But who knows? I don’t know who the Antichrist is and we may not be looking at him at all right now, but he could be right in front of us.
So we’ll just have to wait and see. We’re now going to go to Dave and Dave is in St. Petersburg. Dave, welcome to Bob Boy and You’re on the air. Yes, this is speculation about Barack Obama, Dave. So I have a couple of things. Okay. One thing I think, he might be telegraphing something. you know i think one of the website is a bomb in nation yet when he gave the accepted speech he did it in a temple so that he may be the abomination of desolation in the temple that means to be something that’s a little foreshadowing on you’re absolutely right he did that in new york i think it a you issue a synagogue uh…
you know the other day that except except the speech with dnc uh… convention to have behind them all my own okay and and one other thing is that if the if the rapture happen this 30 September, 30 October 1st of this year, that he will definitely be elected as president. Wow. The Christians are still here. He might not be elected president, but if we’re raptured, he’s definitely going to be elected. Interesting things. Thank you for those speculations. Thank you Bill.
I bill on sharing some thoughts. And who again we don’t know who the Antichrist is he will not be revealed until after the Rapture So all we can do is speculate and it can be fun But we really can’t say with a surety that we know exactly who the Antichrist is But it’s kind of fascinating to to look around and say wow are there any qualities in these candidates that might possibly revealed to us that they might be the Antichrist.
Okay, we have Nathaniel and Nathaniel’s calling in from Belgrade, Florida and then Nathaniel welcome to Babylon, you’re on the air. Hello Nathaniel? Yes sir. You’re on the air. Alright sir, got the antler? Yes. We’ve got a lot of static there, let’s try again. Yes, I was calling while building. He was talking about Obama. He was saying a lot about the Antacry. And one is qualified to do. He’s married. He’s the young cheerleader. All wives. Antacry. Do you remember when your Bible says that?
The Bible doesn’t say it all. It says though that he will not regard the desire of women which is… which is in Daniel chapter 11 verse 37. And that really means that he will with disregard to the natural desire of a woman to have children raise a home. Not regard that. So here we get to the time when we’re living right now too with equal sex. You know where men and women fight together in the military, there’s no special privilege is just because you’re a woman.
And if you should desire to stop and have a family and have children, he would disregard your desire to do that. nothing about himself not having children or not being married. I’m going to let you go. What also do we give what race it is from? Or what nationality it is from? Well, it’s simply, excuse me, simply says that he will have Jewish blood and his white Well.
grandmother is Jewish. So he has that qualification as well. Hopefully that helps. Alright, thank you. Sure, welcome and thank you for calling in. We have some off airs. I’m going to try to get some of those. The phone number is 1-800-576-3771. 1-800-576-3771, give us a call. We have Bob in Clearwater, Florida, and he leaves this off here question, how can we help or what can we say to someone saved, but is not following Jesus in their life? Some have not grown as Christians.
Well obviously we ought to encourage them to do that and to let them know that they’re going to be held accountable one day and that they’ll suffer the loss of reward in heaven and they’re going to miss out on the blessings and rewards that God can have for them right now here in this world. So the Bible tells us that every believer ought to serve the Lord and that we’re saved to serve. But if we serve, we will be rewarded for that and blessed for that.
But if we don’t, we are going to stand before a judgment called the Judgement State of Christ where Christ will evaluate all that we have done since we have been saved. And if we have not lived for Christ, then we are not going to be rewarded. And we will suffer the loss of reward in heaven forever. We will go to John now and see where John is calling from. John is in Miami, Florida, John, welcome to Bibleline. Good morning.
Good morning. Good morning. Good morning. Great. Good morning. Good morning. I’ve been under good Bible teachers. uyomi features, who have explained the chronological unfolding of the rapture. And it’s always been pre-tribbed. And… And starting at the beginning of the first seven years for the return. And that whole time I’ve never been explained scripturally or pointed to script why that would happen exactly seven years before. I’ve been explaining that it would be seven years before the rebuilding of the temple.
But also what’s been introduced to me recently is that it would be not necessarily Yeah, I would take that position. That’s by Marvin Rosenthal. And but here’s the point. Daniel chapter 9, we covered it yesterday and you can go back and review that program on the Internet. But in Daniel chapter 9 it talks about 70 weeks of years that would fulfill all prophecy and that would be 490 years. It tells one to start counting it and there would be a commandment to restore and rebuild Jerusalem and then it would account 483 of those years and then the Messiah would die and it came out exactly to the day.
Then it says once the Messiah was cut off, let’s sit in the temple, then Jerusalem would be destroyed, that happened in the Navy 70. Now it talks about one more week of years, seven years that still hasn’t been fulfilled, and that is the last seven years of the Old Testament. So basically it anticipates the Messiah being rejected, and then God turning to the Gentiles, us for the past 2000 years because the Jewish people rejected him. But during that last seven years, God goes back and picks up with His purpose for Israel and will complete that.
So we still have seven years to go. And right after the rapture, I believe the temple goes up immediately. The preparations have already been done. They’ve been working on this thing for the past 40 years. We have Gershaun Solomon coming next Thursday. They’ll talk about the cutting of the stones. We’re talking about huge stones too, that they’ve been cutting. They’ve been cutting the biblical way that is away from the Temple Mount and by the ancient stone cutting methods of the Old Testament.
So it’s exciting. We’re living, I think, close to when the seven years will take place. And with the church, the body of Christ, with the Gentile witnessing body, will be caught out and then God will continue His purpose for the Jewish people and come back as their king at the end of those seven years. Yeah, I have my homework to do. It’s going to happen exactly seven years before Christ coming. Well, that’s the one of the seven years comes from.
It’s the 70th week of Daniel. And in the book of Revelation, it talks about that 70th week. And it divides it into two parts. Each one 42 months. And 42 months is three and a half years. And two, three and a half years appears in seven years. years, that’s the total length of time between the rapture and the second coming. Does the rebuilding of the temple occur in the middle of those seven years? No, it happened right after the rapture.
None of this is a day one, but it will happen immediately. During the first three and a half years of the tribulation, Daniel read 927 of Daniel, they will resume the sacrifices and then the antichrist right in the middle of the week in the middle of the seven years will break the promise that he made and he’ll stop the sacrifices he’ll walk into the temple and he’ll make a proclamation that he’s got to demand to be worshiped. So he will stop the sacrifices that will be offered only the first three and a half years of the tribulation period.
I never noticed the parallels until earlier in the year of what the Jews expect of their coming Messiah, which seems to fall greatly short of the power of Christ. They expect them more to be a monarch of peace. Well, I’m the j- The Jews have been looking for a political savior, not a suffering savior, he would die. And that’s really why they rejected him when he came the first time. And Jesus explained that, and the apostles all explained it.
If you read Luke 24, when Christ came back from the dead, and the two men along the way to Emmaus, they were sad, He says, ought not Christ to have suffered these things and then enter into his glory. So the Messiah was according to the Old Testament, prophecies was to suffer and die, and then the second time he had come, he had come as a great king. But the Jews never wanted to accept the suffering part about their Messiah.
And they’ll behold the one that they appeared. That’s right. Well, thank you very much. You’re so welcome. Thank you for coming in from Miami John and Miami who now have Bill in Brandon and Bill welcome to Bibleline you’re on the air. From Miami John and Miami. You’re on the air? Okay. Get your radio turned out. Bill, you’re on the air. Yes, I don’t get your viewpoint on a salvation after the rapture. There’s a lot of people that say that there will be no chance for people to be saved after the rapture But then a lot of people that had the viewpoint of said it be one of the time of the greatest revivals on the earth During that time of the tribulation.
I’m just trying to get your viewpoint and I’ll hang up and listen to you Okay, what will happen is that? There will be two Old Testament prophets that will come back Moses and Elijah They will lead 144,000 Jewish men to Christ, who will be really God’s witnesses during the Tribulation period. Through their witness, which is described in Revelation 7, in Revelation 7 and 9, it says, I saw a great multitude which no man could number of all nations and kidders and tongues of people who got saved during the Tribulation.
So millions of all nations will get saved during the Tribulation period. the Jewish people will again be the evangelist as they will be God’s witnesses again as they were prior to the rejection when Christ came the first time. God has now in this age turned to us Gentiles and we have become his witnesses, but during the tribulation period he will turn back and the Jewish people will be the witnesses and will have Old Testament prophets coming back, will have the Jews in their land, will have the temple rebuilt, sacrifices started to get us all Jewish, Jewish, Jewish.
And that’s because he’s going to go back and prepare the Jews to receive their Messiah. And when he comes back, they will say, less than to see the cometh in the name of Jesus or Yeshua. And he will appear and he’ll see his nail pierced hands and he’ll become their king and root over them for a thousand years. So, I hope that helps. Anyway, we’re now going to go to Larry in Mason, Michigan, and Larry welcome to Bibleline New Year.
Welcome to Bibleline here on the earth. Yes Dr. Densstrom. I was wondering if you remember what we’re in Daniel. It talks about the Antacrass would be a razor of taxes. You’d be a what? Razor of taxes. Oh, I see what you mean. I don’t know. know what the good reference that would be. But he, in fact, I don’t know if a verse would say that exactly. But the Antichrist will definitely, I think, get his due out of everybody when he comes into power he’s going to be in worship including uh…
everything else is going to ask you to give him so uh… i don’t have an answer for that maybe somebody can call in with the answer if they know it we’re going to uh… uh… oh simio in my ami and uh… welcome to my body on the air and and thank you for taking my my car and my i have a question my question is uh… and here I just comment from Nicaragua, Nicaragua is a poor people in a poor country.
So here I see, I turn on the TV and I see a lot of people preaching a kind of gospel like a money, prosperity and healing and all that kind of stuff. These people are recognized all around the world. I don’t want to make, I don’t want to mention any name, but even I went to the Christian library, you know, and I didn’t only see that many book, thousands and thousands of books talking about self, like a third healing or practice or something like even yoga, Christian Jorah, so my question is, what is supposed to be accepted by Christian?
What is not supposed to be accepted? Talking about all those kinds of messages on TV and on books and even the internet? Well, that’s all false gospel. That’s not the gospel of the Bible. And unfortunately, the Bible talks about false preachers in the last days. And we see that happening today. God knows where promises that you’re going to be rich here in this world. In fact, obviously, if you read the New Testament, most of the Christians were very poor.
and obviously we are rich spiritually because whatever we do for God will be rewarded in heaven forever. But the false gospel also teaches works for salvation and all of these prosperity preachers believe you can lose your salvation. It’s all based upon works and the things that you do so it’s all a false movement all together so I would stay away from it. I think that many, many pastor and fishers look like they don’t want to preach to the church.
I go to the Baptist church. And what I see is that they want to talk many, many about the Bible, but look like they don’t want to talk about the prophecy. They want to even say that the book of Revelation is not easy to understand and it’s for someone that has some kind of story to understand. And what can you tell me about that? That’s also true and this is shame because you know one third of the Bible is really prophecy and if you don’t talk about prophecy then you’re really not teaching the whole Council.
He is the author of it, but God also gives us prophecy to let us know that he is in charge of the future and he unfolds the future before it happens so that we can know that we are on the winning side. Even though things look bad out there, it is a part of the prophetic plan that we can see an evil world coming in before Christ returns. and know that that’s par for the course. It says in the 2nd Timothy, a prophecy that evil men will go worse and worse.
So it’s going to get worse until Christ comes back. There will not be world revival. And as a believer, we can expect that we’re going to go through some difficult times just before Jesus returns. Well, we’re out of time here. It’s amazing how quickly the time goes. It’s Friday. We hope we’ll see you again on Monday.
