Mar 1:15
And saying,
The time is fulfilled, and
the kingdom of God is at hand: repent ye, and believe the gospel.
Dan 12:7
And I heard the man clothed in linen, which
was upon the waters of the river, when he held up his right hand and his left hand unto heaven, and sware by him that liveth for ever that
it shall be for a time, times, and an half; and when he shall have accomplished to scatter the power of the holy people, all these
things shall be finished.
awesome quote what do you see here regarding your quote
“And the angel which I saw stand upon the sea and upon the earth
lifted up his hand to heaven, And sware by him that liveth for ever and ever, who created heaven, and the things that therein are, and the earth, and the things that therein are, and the sea, and the things which are therein, that there should be time no longer:
But
in the days of the voice of the seventh angel, when he shall begin to sound, the mystery of God should be finished, as he hath declared to his servants the prophets.”
Revelation 10:5-7
The message of the prophets was this
“And he said unto them, These are the words which I spake unto you, while I was yet with you, that all things must be fulfilled, which were written in the law of Moses, and in the prophets, and in the psalms, concerning me. Then opened he their understanding, that they might understand the scriptures, And said unto them, Thus it is written, and thus it behoved Christ to suffer, and to rise from the dead the third day: And that repentance and remission of sins should be preached in his name among all nations, beginning at Jerusalem.”
Luke 24:44-47 KJV
and thier mystery is this
“How that by revelation he made known unto me the mystery; (as I wrote afore in few words, Whereby, when ye read, ye may understand my knowledge in the mystery of Christ) Which in other ages was not made known unto the sons of men, as it is now revealed unto his holy apostles and prophets by the Spirit; That the Gentiles should be fellowheirs, and of the same body, and partakers of his promise in Christ by the gospel:”
Ephesians 3:3-6 KJV
thier subject matter was always the gospel so do you see how daniels vision times time and a half has now passed ? It shows the progression of the prophetic timeline Daniel wrote his book 700 years at least before revelation.
Daniel sees four beasts with the same exact description as johns one beast but we find out that time has passed by the time johns vision came because five kingdoms had already fallen whereas in daniels time the first was rising up ( Babylon under nebucadnezzar)
but John is in romes time so he sees the beast past five heads , current head , and future head but five have risen and fallen already and John is near the end of it
“And there are seven kings:
five are fallen, ( past) and
one is,( present ) and
the other is not yet come; and when he cometh, he must continue a short space.” ( future )
Revelation 17:10 KJV
so while Daniel is looking at a distant future and seeing Jesus being enthroned in chapter 7 , John came along at the end of these same things when Christ has been enthroned as Daniel had saw beforehand from a distance so distant view from earth looking far away towards Christ
“A fiery stream issued and came forth from before him:
thousand thousands ministered unto him, and ten thousand times ten thousand stood before him: the judgment was set, and the books were opened.”
Daniel 7:10 KJV
“I saw in the night visions, and,
behold, one like the Son of man came with the clouds of heaven, and came to the Ancient of days, and they brought him near before him. And there was given him dominion, and glory, and a kingdom, that all people, nations, and languages, should serve him:
his dominion is an everlasting dominion, which shall not pass away, and his kingdom that which shall not be destroyed.”
Daniel 7:13-14 KJV
and then John standing close in heaven seeing details of what the angels were saying and what happened when he was brought near
“And one of the elders saith unto me, Weep not: behold,
the Lion of the tribe of Judah, the Root of David, hath prevailed to open the book, and to loose the seven seals thereof.
And I beheld, and, lo, in the midst of the throne and of the four beasts, and in the midst of the elders,
stood a Lamb as it had been slain, having seven horns and seven eyes, which are the seven Spirits of God sent forth into all the earth.
And he came and
took the book out of the right hand of him that sat upon the throne.
And they sung
a new song, saying, Thou art worthy to take the book, and to open the seals thereof: for thou wast slain, and hast redeemed us to God by thy blood out of every kindred, and tongue, and people, and nation;
And I
beheld, and I heard the voice of many angels round about the throne and the beasts and the elders: and the number of them was ten thousand times ten thousand, and thousands of thousands; Saying with a loud voice,
Worthy is the Lamb that was slain to receive power, and riches, and wisdom, and strength, and honour, and glory, and blessing.”
Revelation 5:5-7, 9, 11-12 KJV
So Daniel is showing long ago that Christ was going to come to Gods throne among the angels and receive a kingdom and John is watching it come to pass it shows the correlation of prophecy to revelation and the passage of prophetic timeline in prophecy
it’s really cool you can track the gospe back Tom Thy e beginning watching prophecy grow and move forward and be fulfilled along the way it’s a faith builder for sure knowing the certainty of his word
