Mysteries in Daniel 12
Dan 12:8-9 Although I heard, I did not understand. Then I said, "My lord, what shall be the end of these things? " And he said, "Go your way, Daniel, for the words are closed up and sealed till the time of the end."
Even Daniel, the great beloved of God, who was given so many end-time prophecies and in great detail, was also not allowed to understand the end-time truth which has been closed up and sealed till the time of the end.
So brethren, please do not use any end time teachings especially from commentaries, which are more than 40 years old, for without the revelations from God, all those human teachings using worldly wisdom are erroneous and tend to be heretic.
Mat 24:15 "Therefore when you see the 'abomination of desolation,' spoken of by Daniel the prophet, standing in the holy place" (whoever reads, let him understand)
But, if we are living in the last day, then we need His revelations and truth to understand the mysteries hidden in the book of Daniel alongside Jesus' teachings of the end-time signs in Matthew 24. This will help us synchronize and understand other end time scriptures.
Dan 12:10 "Many shall be purified, made white, and refined, but the wicked shall do wickedly; and none of the wicked shall understand, but the wise shall understand."
After the war victims were taken care of by godly Christians, many will believe the gospel and accept Jesus as their Saviour.
Many shall be purified, made white, and refined
Being born again Christians, many will fearlessly search and rescue war victims possibly risking their lives just like those Christians who risked their lives to save them. These new converts have obeyed Jesus commandment of loving one another as He had loved us.
They have become Jesus' disciples.
Note: These war victims may be badly wounded, starving, unconscious, deranged and some may even be infected with incurable diseases such as Ebola, AIDS and new incurable diseases.
Preparing the Bride of the Lamb
Rev 19:7 Let us be glad and rejoice and give Him glory, for the marriage of the Lamb has come, and His wife has made herself ready."
God will use World War 3 and the Period of Tribulations to refine and transform Christians to be in the image of Jesus.
Ph 2:8 And being found in appearance as a man, He humbled Himself and became obedient to the point of death, even the death of the cross,
the wicked shall do wickedly; and none of the wicked shall understand,
Unfortunately, in the last days the wicked will be more wicked for they are blinded by the devil and their lusts of the flesh.
Gal 5:19-21 Now the works of the flesh are evident, which are: adultery, fornication, uncleanness, lewdness, idolatry, sorcery, hatred, ... heresies, envy, murders, drunkenness, revelries, and the like; of which I tell you beforehand, just as I also told you in time past, that those who practice such things will not inherit the kingdom of God.
but the wise shall understand
John 14:15-17a, 26; 16:13 "If you love Me, keep My commandments. And I will pray the Father, and He will give you another Helper, that He may abide with you forever - the Spirit of truth... He will teach you all things, and bring to your remembrance all things that I said to you... However, when He, the Spirit of truth, has come, He will guide you into all truth; and He will tell you things to come.
When these new converts continuously keep his words God will give them the Spirit of truth, who will teach them all things, guide them into all truth, and tell them things (end-time events) to come.
John 17:17 Sanctify them by Your truth. Your word is truth.
The blood of Jesus cleanses their sins and makes them righteous, but truth sanctifies (refines) them and transforms them to be like Him who is holy.
1 Pet 1:15-16 but as He who called you is holy, you also be holy in all your conduct, because it is written, "Be holy, for I am holy."
