Jared Chrestman and I finish up our examination of Daniel with this climactic chapter.
When is the End of Days?
Is the Resurrection in this chapter a metaphor like in Ezekiel or literal?
Futurist speculations break down and just don’t address the complex web of prophetic symbolism that runs through the entire book and climaxes here.
Understand Daniel and you will understand the book of Revelation.
I talked with Jared Chrestman about the “Willful King” of Daniel 11.
This enigmatic yet important ruler related to the coming of Messiah,
at the time of the end.
Who is he?
You’ll be fascinated by the options.
And he isn’t who the prophecy speculators think he is.
I talked to Jared Chrestman about one of the most detailed AND confusing prophecies in the Bible.
Daniel 10-11.
Willful kings, seductive entanglements, wars of gods and men.
Learn about the “Times of the Gentiles” that led to Messiah.
This is one of the most fascinating podcasts I’ve done with Jared Chrestman in a while on his show Through the Black.
I go through Daniel 9 and the infamous 70 Weeks prophecy that leads to the Messiah and the Abomination of Desolation spoken of by Daniel and Jesus.
Some think this passage includes both the Christ and a future Antichrist thousands of years later.
I prove that it does not refer to a future Antichrist.
But it makes it that much more of a powerful and beautiful prophecy.
This could be one of the most central prophecy passages in the Bible because it gives the most precise dating for the arrival of Messiah.
So, Jared and I started a new series on Bible Prophecy at Through the Black.
This one is Daniel & Bible Prophecy: It’s Not What They Told You.
First episode here is introduction to Daniel chapter 2: The giant metal monster statue.
And yet again, It ain’t what modern Bible prophecy pundits are telling you.
Jared Chrestman and I were on Robbie Davidson’s Podcast Celebrate Truth to talk about the modern Prophecy Industrial Complex.
Many Christians think these are the Last Days and the COVID vaccine is the mark of the Beast.
They couldn’t be more biblically wrong.
We talk about how much prophecy is misinterpreted to believe that God’s Kingdom on earth will be a failure to be rescued at the last minute by the return of Christ.
We think differently.
Jared Chrestman and I talk about the time texts in Revelation 22 and through all of Revelation as well as the rest of the New Testament.
The clear biblical answer to the question of what it meant that Christ was coming soon, that he was coming quickly, that the time was near, that the things of Revelation would shortly take place.
Here is how the first century church understood the words and acted accordingly.
And it ain’t what most pop prophecy pundits are telling you.
Jared Chrestman and I talk about the New Heavens and Earth as well as the New Jerusalem.
All attempts to hyperliteralize these symbolic images crumble into heaps of interpretive dust blown away by the ancient Hebrew context.
And what they are is beautiful theology of new covenant and community.
See why in this climactic conclusion to the book of Revelation.
Jared and I talk about the most controversial chapter in the Bible: Revelation 20.
Whole schools of thought fight against each other, declaring each other heretics for their difference.
What is the truth about it?
Now, we finally have the only true answer that everyone else has gotten wrong.
Just kidding. We wouldn’t be that arrogant.
But we do think there are some things that the usual suspects of the Bible Prophecy Industrial Complex are missing.
Jared Chrestman and I continue our series in Revelation.
We talk about Revelation 19 and the cloud coming of Christ.
Many think this speaks of an event in our future. But is it?
Learn more about the ancient context of Revelation as the first century Jewish Christians understood the imagery, NOT how modern prophecy pundits spin it through our modern lens.
