07_03 Jubilee 2000 – What was it really all about?
The New World Order already almost happened! This document reveals how close to readiness the “man of sin” is, to take that plan into implementation. What prophecy relates to this stupendous event? Daniel, in Chapter 11, and Jesus, in Matthew 24, agree together about how the Papacy will take control of the New World Order!
Scripture Text: Mt.24:14, 15, 16. Title: Jubilee 2000 – What was it really all about? Good Morning! I usually teach somewhat meaty material, and today is no exception. So please get yourself into your best thinking mode; as if you were at a Camp-meeting. How long is time going to go on? What will be the sign that it is time for the “loud cry” of the third angel?
What will wake us up??
In the parable of the ten virgins, in Mt. 25, all of the virgins slumbered and slept, waiting for the Bridegroom, whose coming was delayed. None of us would dispute that our church, which is represented by the 10 virgins, has been sleeping for a long period of time, a number of generations, waiting for our wake-up call. Where does the wake-up call come from in the parable? It’s from inside the house, isn’t it? A watchman inside the house raises the call, “Arise, the Bridegroom cometh!” Then those who had the extra oil (had filled themselves, through Holy Spirit’s illumination, with the knowledge of the 3 Angel’s Messages; and new truth) arose, trimmed their lamps, and joined the procession to the wedding feast, joyfully lighting the way to the Bridegroom’s Father’s home. Listen carefully today. I may have for you your wake-up call!
The Lutherans went as far as Luther did, and reformed no further. The Calvinists, Methodists, etc., etc. did the same; and thus the people have divided the Christian Church into many denominations. Have we gone as far as Mrs. White and our pioneers of the faith, and failed to go forward ourselves? How long has it been since you searched out Bible prophetic truth, as the history has unfolded? Remember this interpretive principle: “Prophecy is History before it happens!” Has history happened that opens new truth? Today, we’re going to look at a prophecy (new truth) and work it out together! ` We often speak of the prophecies of Jesus Himself about the end times, in Mt. 24. A favorite one is, “This gospel of the kingdom shall be preached in all the world for a witness unto all nations, and then shall the end come.” NOTE the context: It is end time. That was Matthew 24, verse 14. But what about the very next verse?
Verse 15: “When you therefore shall see the abomination of desolation spoken of by Daniel the prophet, stand in the holy place (whoso readeth, let him understand) then, let them which be in Judea flee into the mountains.” Was this fulfilled by the 70 A.D. destruction and desolation of Jerusalem and Judea? Most Christians today are fully convinced that it was. But we will see today that Jesus mingled His prophecy of the destruction of Jerusalem and of the end of the world, because A.D. 70 was only partly His focus. We are going to today discover that there will be a 3rd desolation of Jerusalem and Judea! The first was by the Babylonian Empire, the second by the Roman Empire. There will be a third desolation of Judea!
Is Israel still important to prophecy today? SEE JEREMIAH 31:35-37!
Actually, only Luke focused specifically on the A.D. 70 desolation of Jerusalem (Luke 21:20) yet with verse 21 using exactly the same words as Mt.24, v.16 – “Then let them which are in Judea flee to the mountains…” Luke’s v.20 statement is entirely different from Mt.24:15. Luke’s statement says, “And when ye shall see Jerusalem compassed with armies, then know that the desolation thereof is nigh.” This was exactly fulfilled in A.D. 70, and the Christians who heeded the warning, who were within the Holy City, escaped to the city of Pella ( East of the Jordan river) when they saw that sign! But A.D. 70 was not the “abomination of desolation spoken of by Daniel the prophet” of Mt. 24:15 and Mk.13:14! as we will discover. How Luke’s source heard his specific prophetic words, while Matthew personally heard the prophetic words he wrote, may simply be because perhaps even more was said by Jesus on the subject, but Holy Spirit brought recall of the two different prophecies to two different people-groups when the authors wrote them down, for two different audiences! As we will see, the Matthew 24 and Mark 13 prophecy is for us, in the end times! As surely as Jesus came the first time, right on time, according to Daniel’s 69 week prophecy (Dan.9:25) so also “the abomination of desolation spoken of by Daniel the prophet” will come to pass! When and how it will come to pass is our quest today. Do you know? Are you watching for it? How should you “watch and pray” as Jesus warned?
May I suggest that you actually need to watch the news on TV every day, with carefulness, and prayerfulness, to catch the signs of the times? What is the Biblical ”little horn” (the Pope) up to lately? He’s very often in the news. We need to pray that we will not be deceived by the signs coming upon the world. According to Jesus, Himself, we also need to know when to…”Run for the hills!” “When you see the abomination of desolation spoken of by Daniel the prophet…” First, in order to answer our questions, we note that it is spoken of by Daniel. Now; how do you find out where in the book of Daniel, the verses are which speak of this “abomination?” You apply “line upon line” using a Concordance, don’t you. Isaiah 28:9-13, is Holy Spirit’s prescription for Bible Study. Our church is founded on William Miller’s dependence on it. Note: There is more than one reference to the two words used together. The second one is usually missed by those who do not use “line upon line!” In this case, that is very important. A third entry, Daniel 9:27, uses the PLURAL “abominations.” It refers to A.D. 70; but is found in a different place in the Concordance! Someone with a complete Concordance is going to look up the other two texts that use both words, while I explain the meaning of the two key words, “abomination” and “desolation.”
In my large Funk and Wagnall’s Dictionary, “abomination” is defined as “something to be loathed, or causing revulsion, or extreme disgust.” It goes on to include, “something that offends the moral values.” “Desolation” is defined as “the act of making desolate…of laying waste; ruined and deserted.” For a Biblical example, the taking of the city of Jerusalem and its people into captivity by Babylon (in Daniel’s time) was because of their “abominations” (2 Kings 21:11) and they became a “desolation” (2 Kings 22:19). Therefore, “the abomination of desolation” is an event or action which causes loathing in the eyes of God, and, as it did in Daniel’s time, causes God to act to destroy Jerusalem and Judea, because the abomination defiles God’s holy city. Sodom and Gomorrah were an abomination to the Lord, and He finally destroyed them, Himself. Leviticus 18:22 says, “Thou shalt not lie with mankind as with womankind: it is abomination.” And Lev.20:13 says, “…they shall surely be put to death.” Therefore, we can look for something to happen that is so loathsome to God that He will put up with it no longer, and the “time of trouble such as never was, since there was a nation” will swiftly follow. At the beginning of that time, as I see it, the “loud cry” will happen (See Early Writings, pages 85, btm, and 86).
Let’s get into it. Have you found the other two verses in Daniel from your Concordance? The first one is? …Daniel 11, verse 31 (read)
“They shall place the abomination…” Most other versions translate this, “They will ‘set up’ the abomination…” The latter translation is probably the clearer one, because our second, and other verse containing both key words, in Daniel, is a parallel verse, but more definitive. Where is the second one found? Daniel 12, verse 11 (read). This verse tells us that the abomination that makes desolate was set up at the beginning of “one thousand two hundred and ninety days.” The “taking away of the daily” (“sacrifice” is an inappropriate added word – therefore italicized) in each text assures us that they are parallel texts, both speaking about the same year of fulfillment. Both texts speak of the setting up of the “abomination;” one in its historical setting, the other leading us to an historical date. Very important, as we shall see!
Daniel chapter 11 is the most literal prophecy in the two prophetic books that deal with the end time – Daniel and Revelation. Daniel 11 goes king by king (and some queens are mentioned too, so that it is clear where we are in history) down through literal history. Uriah Smith, in his book Daniel and the Revelation, treats the entirety of Daniel 11 as literal, to which I agree. See the DVD of Kim Kjaer re. “literal first rule” — on Google, type in, Village SDA Church, Berrien Springs, Michigan, then click on 2018 Event Info.- Daniel 11 Prophecy, then 2019 in the task bar, then DVD’s in the box off that.
I also accept Smith’s history up to the end of v.28. Having researched the subsequent history with the up-to-the-present SDA knowledge of the prophecies (having written a 10 week seminar on the prophecies that unfold the 3 Angel’s Messages, through CUC and Andrews U., as a writer and developing theologian) from v. 29 on is the “enlarge information” part of the principle “repeat and enlarge.”
[Verses 25 – 28 are all about the time of Augustus Caesar against Mark Antony and Cleopatra, (Egypt) whom he defeated in 31B.C. Augustus returned to Rome with “vast riches on the reducing of that country…” Verse 28b: “his” (a later emperor) heart is against the Jews, and Jewish and Gentile Christians, their God, and their Holy Covenant **(10 Commandments, in the Ark of the Covenant). – we have emperor Vespasian and Titus, his son, and the “desolation” of Jerusalem and Judea for their “abominations.” – a jump in time to 70 A.D].
Then v.29 jumps in time again, to Constantine, who became Emperor by winning a great battle against Emperor Maxentius at the Milvian Bridge in 312 A.D. [After receiving a vision, of a cross over the sun, in which he was told, “In this sign you shall conquer,” his men painted that picture on their shields. Maxentius chose to make his stand in front of the Milvian Bridge, a wide stone bridge with 5 arches, that carries the Via Flaminia road across the Tiber River into Rome. Driven back onto the bridge, one historian states that Maxentius was thrown by his horse into the river, where he drowned] – a quick end of the war! V. 29, [cf. v. 24 – Pagan Rome – a prophetic ‘time’ – 30 B.C. – 330 A.D. – 360 years] is the transfer of empire to Constantinople by Constantine. Therefore, Daniel 11:30 refers to Constantine, and an expedition by him against Egypt, that did not result in glorious conquest, as in v. 28, but instead resulted in ignominious defeat in a naval clash with Egypt and, “the ships of Chittim”- v. 30 This is the enlarge (with new information) part of the chapter. It was an attempted conquering of “the king of the South”(29a) Egypt, that was a failure, because of the ships of Chittim. [The history writings of Rome might well not have written about such an ignominious defeat of the Emperor’s plans.] Research by Dr. RandyYounker Phd., gave me this other idea. Instead of the location on the isle of Cyprus (the city of Kittim) being the place of a powerful nation that fought against Constantine, read the words as “ships designed by Chittim,” (“ships of Chittim,”) but located in North Africa (Egypt: king of the South) is likely the idea of verse 30. Dr. Younker proved that Egypt had purchased such warships, made of cedar wood from Chittim. (He displayed a hieroglyphic of one!) They were far superior warships to those of Rome at the time, because of the cedar wood used. These warships had a much shallower draft (they also had a sail, as well as oars, making them even faster). Constantine returns to Italy “grieved:”and also frustrated against the Jews and Christians, who, with their Holy Covenant gospel, were constantly a cause of disunity of the Roman Empire.
It is, therefore, likely, that Constantine then decided to consult with the Christian bishop of Rome itself, because of the vision by which he became Emperor! Between them, they decided that by uniting Paganism and Christianity somehow, this disunity would end. Bishop Sylvester I, in this “Intelligence”(KJV) consultation (a strategy session) with Constantine, saw the opening of a possibility of gaining great power for himself and his church. He was willing to “forsake the Holy Covenant” – ** the 10 Commandments, in the Ark of the Covenant – by suggesting that the day of worship of the Christians might be changed to the Sunday of the Pagans, from the Fourth Commandment Sabbath of the Jews and Christians. Being the bishop of Rome gave him top authority among the recently terribly persecuted Christians (by Diocletian) scattered over the empire, and he could promote the change by offering an end to the persecution, if they would all accept that change! So, in 321 A.D., Constantine wrote the first Sunday Rest Law, which became accepted by the Christians, and even enforced by a church Council in 364 A.D. Sylvester I, also instituted worship of an idol he created; an idol, NOTE: (graven image) of MARY, in 325 A.D., to further attract the Pagans into his church! (thus breaking the Second Commandment also! – both changes made in the Catechism) [research by Doug Batchelor, of Amazing Facts television ministry].
The removal of the seat of empire to Constantinople by Constantine, in 330A.D., may have fulfilled the “time” prophesied in verse 24, but the real pivot of history precedes that – the above strategy session that resulted in Empire Politics joining with Christianity in a new Satanic strategy – “If you can’t defeat them, join them, and ruin them from the inside!” In Constantine’s move to Constantinople, in 330 A.D., he apparently left the western part of the empire to administration by the bishop of Rome! All of the above “reading between the lines” of verses 29 and 30 is fairly well supported by the results we see in the history of the rise to power of the Papacy. A full century later (428) the western empire began to be broken up into the ten horn-kingdoms of the Roman “beast” [Daniel 7] by the barbarians from the North, which almost entirely destroyed the influence of the bishop, shutting him up in Rome, under the rule of the barbarians. Not quite. Our first text about “the abomination that maketh desolate” (verse 31) fits into that history when the king of the Franks, king of one of the ten barbarian kingdoms (after the breakup of the Roman Empire) became a Catholic Christian and used his army to support the bishop of Rome against his enemies, the three kingdoms, the Heruli, Vandals, and Goths, that were the followers of a priest called Arius, who was competing with him for the leadership of the Christian church. Verse 31, therefore, leaps nearly 200 years ahead from v. 30, to when that king of the Franks allied his forces with the bishop – “and arms shall stand on his part.”
Our second text about “the abomination that maketh desolate” (Dan. 12:11) leads us to the date when that happened! This parallel text’s time prophecy, works off the “time, times, and the dividing of time” of Dan. 12:7; which Revelation 12, v. 14 compared with v. 6, reveals is 1260 days or years. The 1260 days began when the Pope was empowered to persecute true Christians as “the corrector of heretics” by Eastern Roman Emperor Justinian’s decree. This extends from 538 A.D. to 1798. Then the Papacy received its mortal wound, not healed till 1929, over a century later. So, obviously, the 1290 days must extend back 30 years, rather than past the 1260 days. Also, our text refers to the setting up of the Papacy, 30 years before he received the power to persecute. Both the 1260 and 1290 end together at 1798. The 1335 (Dan. 12:12) proves that, because 1335 leads to 1843, the Great Advent Awakening, led by William Miller! It all fits.
Therefore, extending back 30 years from 538, we come to 508 A.D. Yes, that was the very year that, “arms (the army of Clovis, king of the Franks) stood on his (the bishop of Rome’s) part” (Dan.11:31). Since the date referring to the “setting up” of the Papacy as “the abomination that maketh desolate” was 508 A.D., Jesus was definitely not only referring to the 70A.D.desolation of Jerusalem and Judea, when He directed us to Daniel to find “the abomination that maketh desolate!” It would be “set up” at the beginning of the 1290 days, just under four centuries later, in 508 A.D.! This desolation is still to come, because of an action that is an abomination to God, done by “the man of sin,” – the little horn power. The “man of sin” is to continue till Jesus comes, and be destroyed “with the brightness of His coming.” 2 Thess. 2:8. Therefore, the “abomination of desolation” must be very close to the last thing that will happen before Jesus comes!
And, NOTE WELL: v. 31 continues “and they [bishops] shall pollute the Sanctuary of strength, and shall take away the daily [the work of Jesus in the Sanctuary in heaven] and they shall place – ‘set up’ – [as in the parallel verse in Daniel 12:11] the abomination that maketh desolate.” From this point on, the entire rest of the chapter is ABOUT “the abomination that maketh desolate” (formerly the “little horn power” of Daniel ch. 8) which had developed into a “beast” – a great king. Yes, the bishops of Rome, and later, the Popes of Rome, are “the abomination.”
Jesus said that it is Daniel that speaks about the abomination of desolation standing in the Holy Place. So, our mystery text is not yet found. We must continue to apply history to the rest of Daniel, chapter 11. From verse 31 to verse 35, we read about the history of the “little horn” up through the Dark Ages, which we will not cover here.
From verse 36 through to verse 45, the end of the chapter, we read more about “the abomination that maketh desolate,” (the “man of sin”) down to his end. This text is parallel to Rev.13:5-7, where this king (the little horn power) had developed into a “beast” power – a great king – (also, the infamous “beast.” of Revelation 14:9, the Third Angel’s Message). In Daniel 11, vs. 36 to 39 we see his characteristics clearly laid out for us, as they had developed by the end of the Dark Ages.. It can only be the Papacy, as we shall see. (read verse 36). Verses 37 to 39 need some historical commentary. “Neither shall he regard the God of his fathers” – he takes Jesus’ place; …”nor the desire of women” – marriage not allowed for priests or nuns; …” nor regard any god: for he shall magnify himself above all” – even thinking to change the 10 Commandment Law of God! (Daniel 7:25). “…But in his estate shall he honor the god of forces” -Satan – oppression of those who resist him; “…and, a god whom his fathers knew not shall he honor with gold, and silver, and with precious stones, and pleasant things.” – MARY, his “image” that he created, and instituted worship of! – The “image of the beast!” of the Third Angel’s Message!! “Thus shall he do in the most strong holds with a strange god, whom he shall acknowledge and increase with glory.” — He has declared MARY “immaculately conceived” instead of Jesus, even made MARY mediator in place of Jesus!
Here, insert and read again the document: 07_02.
Daniel 12:1 begins with the arising of Jesus to destroy because of the abomination; “and there shall be a time of trouble, such as never was since there was a nation, even to that same time:” but NOTE: Daniel’s people are delivered!
So; the last verse of Daniel 11, verse 45, must be the “abomination of desolation spoken of by Daniel the prophet!”
Now we must compare what the “beast” was up to, January 1st, 2000, from the news, as well as from the definitive Catholic book that outlines the plans of the Pope (at that time, John Paul II), The Keys of This Blood, with Daniel 11, verse 45, to understand what the “abomination of desolation” is! [READ v. 45].
So, Daniel 11, verse 45, can now be paraphrased thus: “And the Pope shall plant the tents [temporary location] of his palace [his government] in Jerusalem, God’s glorious holy mountain: yet the Pope shall come to his end, and none shall help him.” This is the abomination which God will not put up with, for the Pope, who represents idol worship (of MARY) and Christianized Sun-worship (see Ezekiel chapter 8) is uniting all religions of the world under himself. For the last 20 years of his own Pontificate, John Paul II had been seeking to unite Catholic, Protestant, and Orthodox Christians, Jews, and Moslems, all under himself as supreme head of all religions. The book, The Keys of This Blood, also reveals that he was in full contention for the leadership of “the New World Order,” using the geopolitical system of the Catholic (Papal) church. The other two contenders are America allied with Western Europe (NATO) with their market system and democratic political system; and Russia, with its market system and socialist political system. Neither of these two is world-wide (geopolitical) as the Catholic Church is, and, the Papacy has done it before, during the Dark Ages, using its trump card, being head of religion! For 20 years, Pope John Paul II had planned to go to Jerusalem, January l, 2,000, to set himself up as both supreme head of all of these major religions represented there, (in a celebration he called Jubilee 2,000) as well as leader of the New World Order (a temporary location for his “palace” – his government!) because Y2K (year 2,000) was the designed vehicle to destroy the old World Order so that a new one could be inaugurated!
The “elite” of our world, just like Constantine, believe they must unite with the Papacy [head of all religions] and thus combine church and state, to rule the world! (Revelation 17:12 -14)! But: the Jews and Arabs (Moslems – Islamic faith) were not on side by January l, 2,000. The New World Order was not yet his, nor did the Jews and Moslems accept the Pope as the head of all religions. The January 1st Jubilee was canceled by the Pope and his twice delayed arrival in Jerusalem, March 22, 2,000, became only an official “Papal visit.”
Y2K fizzled, and so did the Pope’s Jubilee Celebration!
People, Daniel’s prophecy about the “abomination that maketh desolate” almost happened January first, 2,000!! We have had early warning that it is soon to come to pass, and Holy Spirit has used these events to cause us to unfold Daniel 11, now, when it is about to come to pass [See Amos 3:7 to understand why] so that we can now finally prove that verse 45 is speaking about the Papacy and Jerusalem. A Pope, maybe not this one (in fact I think most likely not this one) will go to Jerusalem as head of all faiths, to declare himself also the head of the New World Order, fulfilling the requirements of the prophecy! When the Jews receive him as “the Vicar of the Son of God,” that he claims to be, that will be an indignation to Jesus! HE DOES NOT REPRESENT JESUS! The Jews in Jerusalem “ought not” (Mark 13:14) [should know better than to] receive him as “vicarious filii dei.” Then the prophetic statement of Jesus in Matthew 24, verse 15, will be fulfilled! They must be warned! The whole WORLD must be warned! – the Four Angel’s Messages!! (4th – Rev. 18:1 – 4.)
Watch, pray, and study, people! Pray that your faith in the Bible as the Word of God, will help you to prepare people for the day the Pope will fulfill this prophecy by Jesus Himself! We are the people raised up by God to be His remnant church, who “keep the Commandments of God, and have the testimony of Jesus.” – [see Revelation 1, vs. 1, 2]. We are the people God has raised up to proclaim the 4 Angel’s Messages: and this prophecy is heavily connected to those messages!
It is time to wake up! More, it is time to work with Holy Spirit to fill yourself with the knowledge of the details of everything that has to do with the 4 Angel’s Messages (our message is large – it is filled with many Bible prophecies, and truths, that we must be able to reveal). Read your way through the 10 week Seminar for our Message, on the website prophecybyjesus.com .
If this study is correct [study it carefully to “see if these things are so!”] you have new oil, to add to your “flask of oil for your light,” that will help you to be able to join the procession to the wedding feast, joyfully lighting the way to the Bridegroom’s Father’s home! Please, be a wise virgin! Prepare for the Coming of the Bridegroom! Trim your lamps, and add this oil (Holy Spirit revealed new truth)!
