6 Daniel 9 by Dr. Chuck Missler Daniel 9 is probably one of the most pivotal chapters in the entire Bible for understanding end-time prophecy.

That may seem like an exaggeration, but after seeing what’s packed into this chapter it will be easier to understand why that perspective is held by so many.

Daniel 9 is only one of twelve chapters, so we should start with some context. The first six chapters are historical.

In those chapters we read that Daniel is deported from Israel after the Babylonian conquest. He encounters King Nebuchadnezzar, correctly interprets his dream, and is promoted as a result. Then we see Daniel’s rivals trying to “undo” his three friends in the fiery furnace episode.

KOINONOS 21 The Legacy Project by Gunnar Johnson One night during the 2017 Strategic Trends Conference I went out to dinner with a guy who was also around 40 years old and fueled by a passion for the Lord. He was full of Biblical insights and passion for life. To my surprise, his story of connection with Chuck Missler was one launched out of a personal, heartbreaking tragedy and quest to disprove the existence of God. Probably a lot like you, I love a good agnostic-to-Christ-follower story...

FROM THE EDITOR

DEAR FRIENDS Dean Packwood Editor, Koinonia House

T

he Seventy Week Prophecy of Daniel 9 includes the most incredible validation of Jesus Christ as the Messiah, which He held them accountable to have known.

In a confidential briefing to His disciples, Jesus also highlights this passage as the key to understanding all other prophecies concerning His return; including the Book of Revelation and other related passages.

Dr. Chuck Missler gives us an introduction into Daniel, specifically Chapter 9, and unravels some of the mystery behind these passages.

We would do well to remember that, although we may not know the future, we can know with certainty the One who holds the future. May the God of heaven and earth guide you into the “perfect peace� that passes all understanding, which can be found in a personal relationship with Jesus Christ as your Saviour and Lord.

Gunnar Johnson provides another great testimony of a non-believer coming to know the Lord. We are very pleased with the impact that our materials have had on the tens of thousands of people worldwide who have used them to study the Bible. We hope you find these testimonies encouraging also.

May God bless you as you continue to study His Word.

In HIS service, Dean Packwood Editor, Koinonia House

DANIEL 9

aniel 9 is probably one of the most pivotal chapters in the entire Bible for understanding end-time prophecy. That may seem like an exaggeration, but after seeing what’s packed into this chapter it will be easier to understand why that perspective is held by so many.

Daniel 9 is only one of twelve chapters, so we should start with some context. The first six chapters are historical.

Nebuchadnezzar, the king of the world at that time, writes chapter four of Daniel in which he recounts his lesson from God about pride. That makes Nebuchadnezzar the only Gentile writer in the Old Testament. Next, the fall of Babylon to Darius leads us into the Persian Empire period.

After the first six chapters, we have six chapters that are a collection of Daniel’s visions. They are, in a sense, appended at the end of the history. They’re not in chronological order; the chapters appear as a group.

In the first chapter of that group, chapter seven, we have the times of the Gentiles. In chapter eight, the ram and the goat are described in a vision about the career of Alexander the Great as he defeats the Persians.

That leads us into chapter nine and the seventy weeks.

BIO Dr. Chuck Missler Founder, Koinonia House & Institute After a distinguished military career and more than 30 very successful years in the corporate business environment, Chuck was led to pursue a life-long endeavor of teaching the Bible on a full-time basis.

He founded Koinonia House, an organization devoted to encouraging people to study the Bible.

He also founded Koinonia Institute to enable people to have a Kingdom effect on the world today. Chuck is now retired, living in New Zealand.

It’s interesting, chapters two through the end of seven are not written in Hebrew; they’re in Aramaic.

The author uses Aramaic because those chapters focus on the Gentile world. It’s very unusual for the Bible to do that because Scripture usually The author uses sees everything, past and future, Aramaic because those through the lens of Israel. This is a chapters focus on the section that very unabashedly focuses on the Gentile world, and that’s one Gentile world. It’s very reason it is so dear to us. unusual for the Bible

to do that because This is a very exciting book, but Scripture usually sees again, it’s not in chronological order. everything, past and The visions in Daniel seven and eight occur between the events in chapters future, through the lens four and five, and the interview with of Israel. an archangel in chapter nine occurs between the events of chapters five and six.

Background and Context Before we get to chapter nine, it’s important for us to get another perspective—a perspective coming directly from Jesus. Then we will look at the events leading up to Gabriel’s words about the seventy weeks.

All of this will help demonstrate what God did in order to deliver this amazing prophecy.

Matthew 24: Jesus’ Perspective In Matthew 24-25, Mark 13, and Luke 21, Jesus gave a confidential briefing on His second coming to four special disciples. According to Mark, they were Peter, James, John, and Peter’s brother Andrew.

This talk was important enough that it was recorded in three gospels, and it had a direct connection with Daniel’s prophecy.

Matthew’s account offers more information than the others, most likely due to a skill he had and the others didn’t. He was a customs official, and it was a job requirement that he take shorthand. Most people are unaware that shorthand was a skill prevalent in those days.

Matthew wrote: And as he [Jesus] sat upon the mount of Olives, the disciples came unto him privately, saying, Tell us, when shall these things be? and what shall be the sign of thy coming, and of the end of the world?

Matthew 24:3

So they ask Jesus three questions, and He then gives them a two-chapter answer. The next verse gives a flavor of His answer.

Verse four reads: Jesus answered and said unto them “Take heed that no man deceive you.”

Matthew 24:4

Underline that word deceive because He opens and closes this briefing to His disciples by warning them not to be deceived.

How do we protect ourselves from being deceived? There are all kinds of people spreading all kinds of viewpoints. But which are correct?

| VOLUME 28 | ISSUE 03

MARCH 2018 | Personal UPDATE

We discern the truth by diligence, and by comparing Scripture with Scripture. Our ultimate refuge is always the whole counsel of God. Any particular perspective must be consistent with what we find in the Bible.

And Jesus answered and said unto them, Take heed that no man deceive you. For many shall come in my name, saying, I am Christ; and shall deceive many. And ye shall hear of wars and rumours of wars: see that ye be not troubled: for all these things must come to pass, but the end is not yet. For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom: and there shall be famines, and pestilences, and earthquakes, in divers places. All these are the beginning of sorrows.

Matthew 24:4-8

Many, many people view these issues as signs heralding His coming, except He says these are not signs. These are non-signs. These things will all happen, “but the end is not yet.”

The word sorrows there is actually birth pains. Mothers know what that’s about. These events start slowly and increase in frequency and intensity.

“But the end is not yet,” according to Jesus. Then He gives the key event in the whole scenario.

The Key Event One caveat should be made here. Remember, Jesus is clearly talking to His Jewish disciples. He is not talking to those of us who are believers under the New Covenant. That’s an important distinction as we move forward.

When ye 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 Judaea flee into the mountains:

Matthew 24:15

As readers, we don’t want to miss our instruction here; “Whoso readeth, let him understand.” This passage will be a little technical, but it’s not VOLUME 28 | ISSUE 03 |

intended for just pastors or specialists— it’s intended for everyone. As we move through this topic, know that God intends for each person to understand it.

This is a good place to put to rest a controversy that began in the nineteenth century. Some critics, even today, have maintained that the book of Daniel was written by ...we know who wrote several people. Well, according to the book of Daniel; it this passage, we know who wrote the book of Daniel; it was Daniel. was Daniel. We know We know this is true because that’s this is true because what Jesus said was true. that’s what Jesus said

If you don’t With His clear statement, Jesus has believe in Jesus Christ, saved every student of Scripture hours of tedious library research. you’ve got bigger And, that leads me to a familiar problems than the comment. If you believe in Jesus authorship of the book Christ, you know who wrote the of Daniel! book of Daniel. If you don’t believe in Jesus Christ, you’ve got bigger problems than the authorship of the book of Daniel!

Jesus identifies Daniel as a prophet, and He does something even more.

He points to the very passage that we’re studying in Daniel 9 by referring to this abomination of desolation. That’s a technical phrase. We know a lot about it, though, because it happened specifically once before in history.

The abomination of desolation refers to an idol being placed in the Temple. An idol is always considered an abomination in the Bible, but the ultimate abomination—the abomination that makes desolate—is a pagan idol in the Holy of Holies. That happened in 167 BC, and it led to the Maccabean revolt. After three years, the Jews were able to rededicate the Temple from that outrage. Jews remember the event to this day with the celebration of Hanukkah.

There is another aspect to consider here. The abomination of desolation occurs in the Holy of Holies. Who gets to go into the Holy of Holies?

Only the High Priest is allowed in, only once a year at Yom Kippur, and 10

only after great ceremonial preparation. Jesus said, “When ye therefore shall see.” How can someone in Judea see this happen, and consequently know when to “flee into the mountains”? They would have to see it on cable news, of course.

In other words, this is a major political event that happens inside the Holy of Holies, inside the Temple. That’s how we know there will be a temple standing; it has to be standing for this to happen. If it’s televised, there will be a worldwide audience.

It is the people in Judea who are to flee, not those in New York or Moscow, but those who are in Judea. Why? We need to understand what’s going on here; the abomination of desolation is a major trigger-point in this prophecy. To make sense of this we have to go to the passage that Jesus is pointing them to in Daniel and understand the context.

The Flight from Judea Jesus said: Then let them which be in Judaea flee into the mountains: Let him which is on the housetop not come down to take any thing out of his house.

Matthew 24:16-17

Houses in Israel are typically on hillsides because it’s very hilly terrain.

The roof is the patio, sort of a fellowship place. That’s where they spend the cool of the evening, not in the backyard. They have to go downstairs to get to the bedrooms and all the rest of the house.

When Jesus tells them to “not come down,” He’s saying “Split—and do it now!”

Neither let him which is in the field return back to take his clothes.

And woe unto them that are with child, and to them that give suck in those days! But pray ye that your flight be not in the winter, neither on the sabbath day.

Matthew 24:18-20 VOLUME 28 | ISSUE 03 |

11

Personal UPDATE | MARCH 2018

Jesus also warns them about trying to grab supplies; even things like essential clothing would delay them and be a burden. It would be a handicap they couldn’t afford as they flee for their lives.

Notice that His last comment refers to Sabbath; He is not talking to Gentiles. Keep in mind that the focus is on Israel and the Jews, not Gentiles. He is directing this to His disciples, who are Jewish, but it’s obviously yet future. Most people don’t fully recognize the “Jewishness” of Matthew 24.

The Great Tribulation Jesus goes on to say: For then shall be great tribulation, such as was not since the beginning of the world to this time, no, nor ever shall be.

Matthew 24:21

He is quoting from Daniel 12. We’ll look at that shortly, but Jesus Himself labels the last half of that seven year period as the great tribulation.

Then He makes another statement: And except those days should be shortened, there should no flesh be saved: but for the elect’s sake those days shall be shortened.

Matthew 24:22

That’s a technology statement; it’s an allusion to advanced weapons. If someone read verse twenty-two during the 1800s, it wouldn’t mean much.

They couldn’t imagine the world wiping itself out with muskets and bayonets, but today the nuclear cloud hangs over every geopolitical decision made on Earth. It is now possible to envision that “no flesh be saved.”

Chapter 9: Daniel, Jeremiah, Gabriel With that context established, we are ready for Daniel 9. In this chapter of Daniel, we have what is known as the interrupted prayer.1 Daniel is praying in the first nineteen verses of this chapter, but then the angel 1 There are three important primary prayers in the historical books of the Old Testament: Ezra 9, Nehemiah 9, and Daniel 9. There happens to be a 9 in all three references. That’s not of any significance; I think it’s just a way to help remember it.

12

| VOLUME 28 | ISSUE 03

MARCH 2018 | Personal UPDATE

Gabriel appears and interrupts his prayer. Gabriel proceeds to give Daniel the most astonishing four verses in the entire Bible: 24, 25, 26, and 27.

The Interrupted Prayer Most people jump right into those four verses, but this is too important to cut corners. So we will start with Daniel’s prayer in verse one.

In the first year of Darius the son of Ahasuerus, of the seed of the Medes, which was made king over the realm of the Chaldeans; In the first year of his reign I Daniel understood by books the number of the years, whereof the word of the LORD came to Jeremiah the prophet, that he would accomplish seventy years in the desolations of Jerusalem.

Daniel 9:1-2

The first verse covers titles and royal successions. Some people believe that Darius was the uncle of Cyrus, but that’s conjecture by the scholars.

Other speculations are connected to the comment that he was made king, which implies he is a passive recipient of some kind. Setting aside these minor points, we want to look at the important part of this, which is in verse two.

This all starts because Daniel was reading his Bible, the book of Jeremiah.

Please take note that Daniel took Jeremiah literally. When Jeremiah talks about seventy years in captivity, it wasn’t allegorical. It wasn’t about an approximate number of years, either. Daniel assumes it’s precise, and he knows that the seventy years are about over.

If a believer today were reading in the Bible and somehow discovered that the Lord was coming back to the Earth three weeks from now, what would he or she do? Would they put their feet up on a desk; would they say, “Good, the sooner the better”?

That’s not what Daniel would do; he would pray. He’s an example to us all. He knew seventy years was prophesied in Jeremiah 25:11, and he knew about sixty-seven years had gone by. So he knew the seventy years were about over, and he’s getting excited. As we go through this chapter, notice carefully what he did.

VOLUME 28 | ISSUE 03 |

13

Personal UPDATE | MARCH 2018

The book of Jeremiah makes reference to seventy years in two places: And this whole land shall be a desolation, and an astonishment; and these nations shall serve the king of Babylon seventy years. And it shall come to pass, when seventy years are accomplished, that I will punish the king of Babylon, and that nation, saith the LORD, for their iniquity, and the land of the Chaldeans, and will make it perpetual desolations.

Jeremiah 25:11-12

For thus saith the LORD, That after seventy years be accomplished at Babylon I will visit you, and perform my good word toward you, in causing you to return to this place.

Jeremiah 29:10

This was written in Jerusalem. So twice in the book of Jeremiah we have this promise that Daniel could cling to, that the captivity was about over. What does Daniel do? Let’s take a lesson here. He says: And I set my face unto the Lord God, to seek by prayer and supplications, with fasting, and sackcloth, and ashes.

Daniel 9:3

Are we supposed to pray for the second coming of Christ? We know the Second Coming is going to happen; it’s inevitable. But the Lord taught us to pray, “Thy kingdom come” (Matthew 6:10). Prayer is God’s way of enlisting us in what He’s doing. Carefully consider what that should mean in your life.

Daniel also sought God by fasting. Is it appropriate for New Testament Christians to fast? Some might say that fasting was only for the Old Testament times, but we repeatedly find allusions to New Testament Christians fasting: Then came to him the disciples of John, saying, Why do we and the Pharisees fast oft, but thy disciples fast not? And Jesus said unto them, Can the children of the bridechamber mourn, as long as the bridegroom is with them? but the days will come, when the bridegroom shall be taken from them, and then shall they fast.

Matthew 9:14-15

14

MARCH 2018 | Personal UPDATE

As they ministered to the Lord, and fasted, the Holy Ghost said, Separate me Barnabas andSaul for the work whereunto I have called them. And when they had fasted and prayed, and laid their hands on them, they sent them away.

Acts 13:2-3

The wife hath not power of her own body, but the husband: and likewise also the husband hath not power of his own body, but the wife. Defraud ye not one the other, except it be with consent for a time, that ye may give yourselves to fasting and prayer; and come together again, that Satan tempt you not for your incontinency.

1 Corinthians 7:4-5

But in all things approving ourselves as the ministers of God, in much patience, in afflictions, in necessities, in distresses, In stripes, in imprisonments, in tumults, in labours, in watchings, in fastings;

2 Corinthians 6:4-5

Don’t casually decide to start fasting; it’s best to have some instruction first. It is an appropriate activity for believers today—just do some homework in that area before starting.

Returning to Daniel: And I prayed unto the LORD my God, and made my confession, and said, O Lord, the great and dreadful God, keeping the covenant and mercy to them that love him, and to them that keep his commandments; We have sinned, and have committed iniquity, and have done wickedly, and have rebelled, even by departing from thy precepts and from thy judgments: Neither have we hearkened unto thy servants the prophets, which spake in thy name to our kings, our princes, and our fathers, and to all the people of the land.

Daniel 9:4-6

Notice he says, “We have sinned.” That’s a strange thing for Daniel to say. He and Joseph are two people in the Old Testament about whom no evil is spoken (besides Christ). It doesn’t mean they’re sinless, but Daniel is praying earnestly not on his personal behalf alone, but for his people as well.

VOLUME 28 | ISSUE 03 |

15

Personal UPDATE | MARCH 2018

He continues in verse seven: O Lord, righteousness belongeth unto thee, but unto us confusion of faces, as at this day; to the men of Judah, and to the inhabitants of Jerusalem, and unto all Israel, that are near, and that are far off, through all the countries whither thou hast driven them, because of their trespass that they have trespassed against thee. O Lord, to us belongeth confusion of face, to our kings, to our princes, and to our fathers, because we have sinned against thee. To the Lord our God belong mercies and forgivenesses, though we have rebelled against him; Neither have we obeyed the voice of the LORD our God, to walk in his laws, which he set before us by his servants the prophets.

Yea, all Israel have transgressed thy law, even by departing, that they might not obey thy voice; therefore the curse is poured upon us, and the oath that is written in the law of Moses the servant of God, because we have sinned against him.

Daniel 9:7-11

He’s saying their national destiny is determined by their behavior.

Were there some saved among them? Of course, but that doesn’t alter their national destiny, which is a function of their national behavior.2 And he hath confirmed his words, which he spake against us, and against our judges that judged us, by bringing upon us a great evil: for under the whole heaven hath not been done as hath been done upon Jerusalem. As it is written in the law of Moses, all this evil is come upon us: yet made we not our prayer before the LORD our God, that we might turn from our iniquities, and understand thy truth. Therefore hath the LORD watched upon the evil, and brought it upon us: for the LORD our God is righteous in all his works which he doeth: for we obeyed not his voice. And now, O Lord our God, that hast brought thy people forth out of the land of Egypt with a mighty hand, and hast gotten thee renown, as at this day; we have sinned, we have done wickedly. O Lord, according to all thy righteousness, I beseech thee, let thine anger and thy fury be 2 I believe we can apply 2 Chronicles 7:14 to America’s predicament, although it’s a different one altogether.

It reads, “If my people, which are called by My name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land.”

turned away from thy city Jerusalem, thy holy mountain: because for our sins, and for the iniquities of our fathers, Jerusalem and thy people are become a reproach to all that are about us.

Daniel 9:12-16

All this has been an acknowledgement of sin. The focus is Jerusalem and the people of God. But notice what starts to happen as his prayer continues; it’s fascinating. Even in the English, the frequency of those verbs starts picking up. We can almost feel the intensity, the emotion, the trembling of Daniel.

Now therefore, O our God, hear the prayer of thy servant, and his supplications, and cause thy face to shine upon thy sanctuary that is desolate, for the Lord’s sake. O my God, incline thine ear, and hear; open thine eyes, and behold our desolations, and the city which is called by thy name: for we do not present our supplications before thee for our righteousnesses, but for thy great mercies. O Lord, hear; O Lord, forgive; O Lord, hearken and do; defer not, for thine own sake, O my God: for thy city and thy people are called by thy name.

Daniel 9:17-19

Gabriel’s Visit Now we get to the interruption. We’re going to have a few comments by a mighty angel of God and then, of course, the incredible gift that Gabriel gives Daniel.

And whiles I was speaking, and praying, and confessing my sin and the sin of my people Israel, and presenting my supplication before the LORD my God for the holy mountain of my God; Yea, whiles I was speaking in prayer, even the man Gabriel, whom I had seen in the vision at the beginning, being caused to fly swiftly, touched me about the time of the evening oblation.

Daniel 9:20-21

Notice that he shifted gears from the prayer to narrating what happened.

It’s interesting to see Daniel describe this. Obviously, Gabriel is one of the archangels. We only know of three that are named: Gabriel, Michael, VOLUME 28 | ISSUE 03 |

17

Personal UPDATE | MARCH 2018

and one named Lucifer who got into a big bunch of trouble because of his pride.

Michael is always a warrior, fighting on behalf of God’s people. Gabriel is always announcing something having to do with the Messiah.

The word translated man here, and applied to Gabriel, is the Hebrew word, ish. Ish can mean man or servant, so this can be read as “the servant Gabriel,” although he may have appeared as a man.

There is something very subtle here. Gabriel touched Daniel on the shoulder “at the time of the evening oblation.” Daniel makes that reference even though the Temple is about four hundred miles to the west and in rubble. There is no temple; there is no evening oblation.

It’s an anachronism that’s out of date by virtually seventy years, but not for Daniel.

Daniel is using a phrase here that is very revealing of his heart, and how he is thinking. As far as he’s concerned, it was God’s appointed time and they would be offering a sacrifice, an oblation, if they had a temple.

That’s when Gabriel came to him.

And he informed me, and talked with me, and said, O Daniel, I am now come forth to give thee skill and understanding. At the beginning of thy supplications the commandment came forth, and I am come to shew thee; for thou art greatly beloved: therefore understand the matter, and consider the vision.

Daniel 9:22-23

Daniel must have been thrilled. He’s told that he is “greatly beloved” of God. Recall that God spoke to Moses face-to-face “as a man speaketh unto his friend” (Exodus 33:11). And what did Jesus say to the disciples in the upper room:

Henceforth I call you not servants; for the servant knoweth not what his lord doeth: but I have called you friends; for all things that I have heard of my Father I have made known unto you.

John 15:15

18

| VOLUME 28 | ISSUE 03

MARCH 2018 | Personal UPDATE

What does it mean to be God’s friend? To His friend, God would reveal what He was going to do. He called Moses a friend and told him what was going to happen to the surrounding nations (Exodus 34). Jesus called the disciples His friends and told them about His second coming.

Is there anyone closer than a friend? Moses is known as a friend of God in the Old Testament, but who is beloved in the Old Testament? Daniel is beloved by God. Who is beloved in the New Testament? John is often referred to as “the disciple whom Jesus loved” in the Gospel of John.

How interesting to see what comes from that kind of rapport with God. Daniel, because he’s beloved, is entrusted with apocalyptic insights. In the New Testament, John is beloved, and he is granted the privilege of delivering the apocalyptic book of Revelation.

There is a consistency between the Old and the New Testament concerning relationship. A friend of God will be let in on what’s coming.

The beloved of God really has the inside track.

THE LEGACY PROJECT

Gunnar Johnson Founder, Generosity and Stewardship Strategies

TESTIMONY

O

ne night during the 2017 Strategic Trend Conference I went out to dinner with a guy who was also around 40 years old and fueled by a passion for the Lord. He was full of Biblical insights BIO and passion for life. To my surprise, his story of connection with Chuck Missler was one launched Gu n n a r Jo h n s o n Before founding Generosity out of a personal, heartbreaking tragedy and quest and Stewardship Strategies co-founding Financial to disprove the existence of God. Probably a lot like and Freedom International, you, I love a good agnostic-to-Christ-follower story. Gunnar Johnson was a My name is Adam. I grew up in Florida with a family that believed in God, the God of the Bible.

As a young man I called myself a Christian but I wasn’t a very good one. The older I got, the further away from God I got. It took me a while to figure that out. First I had to realize that the God of the Bible was the true God. Jesus said, “No man can come to me, except the Father which hath sent me draw him”. So God threw in his net and drew me out and He used two key people to do it. My older brother Brian and Chuck Missler.

I love my brother Brian very much but his death was the best thing that ever happened to me. I was lost, willingly deceived by the world into believing that there probably was a God but I’m too busy to even try to get to know him. But then my brother died unexpectedly. People I knew would come up to me

local church Pastor and business owner. He had the privilege of serving as an Executive Stewardship Pastor at Gateway Church in Southlake Texas for 11 years. Prior to Gateway Church, Gunnar served for 2 years as a Stewardship Minister at the The Hills Church in North Richland Hills, Texas. Prior to 13 years of vocational ministr y he owned a drywall business in Florida, and a Chem-Dry carpet cleaning company Texas while serving on staff with Howard Dayton and Larry Burkett at Crown F i n a n c i a l M i n i s t r y.

Gunnar has a passion for teaching Biblical generosity and financial stewardship to individuals, churches, non-profits and businesses. He loves watching how they grow through the power of God's Word.

saying that he was in a better place, and that he’s looking down on me, and all of the other feel good things that people say about those who passed away. My response would always be that of someone who was truly lost. I would say things like, “if there is a God, my brother is not with Him and if God knew my brother then he is not watching down from God’s heaven.” I foolishly believed that there wasn’t much difference between life and a light switch. Once it’s turned off it’s just gone.

I needed to be able to give a better argument to these Christians about why there most likely was no such thing as life after death.

So I looked into the Bible to find every contradiction that I could. I watched YouTube videos and looked up atheist websites to come up with better arguments against Christians and I told my wife that once I could prove the Bible to be false I was going to throw the whole thing into the trash.

In order to prove something false your arguments have to be truthful.

Anyone who goes to the Bible looking for a hook to hang their doubts upon will definitely find one. But I wanted more than doubts. I wanted proof of truth no matter where it may lead.

During my quest of proving the Bible wrong I began to realize that I was actually proving that all of atheists were wrong.

During my quest of proving the Bible wrong I began to realize that I was actually proving that all of atheists were wrong. They were not being truthful. Many times their whole argument was built upon something as simple as phrases, a word, or a verse taken out of context. I found my walls were slowly coming down more and more and I was the one proving the Bible to be truthful and no longer agreeing with the contradictive websites and videos I had been watching.

I remember the moment it happened. When I realized that my journey to set out and prove the Bible to be false had done a 180 on me and now I was the one proving that the Bible was truthful.

I was sitting at my desk and it hit me. All at once I stood up on my feet and with both of my hands on my head I asked “do you mean to tell me that all of this is real?”

At that moment I realized the Bible is truthful, there is a God, There is a Jesus, and the Bible is the word of God. If there is no God then nothing matters but if there is a God then nothing else matters. My new mission was to learn everything about him that I could.

If there is no God then nothing matters but if there is a God then nothing else matters.

Around the same time a prophecy conference came to town and my mother was one of the attendees. One of the keynote speakers could not make it and was replaced by a man named Chuck Missler. After she heard him speak she could not wait to tell me and my younger brother about Chuck.

Now with the new hunger and fresh eyes I wanted to learn the Bible as quickly as I could. My mother introduced me to Chuck Missler Who just so happen to have a DVD series titled “Learn The Bible In 24 Hours.” I found myself rushing home from work so that I could sit in front of the TV and learn everything that Chuck had to tell me.

I Studied that series for several hours a day until I had reached the VOLUME 28 | ISSUE 03 |

end. I was sad that it was over but I was so excited to learn that he had made a DVD or CD series for each one of the books of the Bible.

I begin with Genesis and then Exodus and then the book of Revelation.

I found myself bouncing around from the Old Testament to the New Testament with one book tying into another. The old testament is the concealed version of the New Testament while the New Testament revealed what the old was telling us. Chuck Missler so captivated my life that today, eight years later I still listen to multiple hours of Chuck Missler almost every day. Of course I have all of his teachings and I consider Them to be among my most cherished possessions.

I truly love the word of God and I truly love Chuck Missler whom God has used to changed my life and the life of my family. From the bottom of my heart I would like to say thank you Chuck Missler and thank you K-house. You truly have my support and The support of my family. I pray that God continues to bless you.

Your investment into the Koinonia House ministry fuels us to provide materials that draws people to Christ in a lost and dying world.

Thank you for making a difference.

Lives are being changed and that is the Legacy we are working to continue.

I have three requests.

1) Pray for us and allow us to pray for you. We gather as a team to pray for requests every Wednesday. Our prayer e-mail address is prayer@khouse.org 2) Share your story to encourage us and allow us to encourage others by the word of your testimony.

NEWEBOOK & EBOOK The Sovereignty of Man From the beginning of time, thinkers have puzzled over the paradox of fate vs. free will. In theological terms, this leads to the struggle between Calvinism and Arminianism. As we explore this paradox we find that examining the fruit of each position reveals that the River of Life seems to flow between these two extremes, and that again, truth involves a careful balance.

Beyond the mysteries associated with the "sovereignty of God" and the libraries are full of studies on that subject - there emerges what is, to many of us, an even more troubling mystery: The Sovereignty of Man!

Searching for the True Location of Christ’s Crucifixion MAYBE IT’S TIME YOU LEARNED THE TRUTH ABOUT THE TRUE LOCATION OF WHERE CHRIST WAS CRUCIFIED…

Ron Matsen, CEO of Koinonia House & Koinonia Institute

Where was the world’s most infamous murder committed? Using eyewitness testimony of the gospels and the discovery of some ancient tombs just east of Jerusalem, Bob Cornuke’s Golgotha makes a captivating case that Jesus didn’t die where tradition tells us he did. Uh, oh. Some people steeped in tradition won’t like this. But you will. Fascinating read!

Dr. Frank Turek, President of CrossExamined.org

Robert Cornuke is president of the Bible Archaeology Search and Exploration (BASE) Institute. He has participated in over 60 expeditions searching for lost locations described in the Bible and has been featured on major television networks, including ABC, FOX, CNN, National Geographic, and the History Channel. Bob is a former FBI-trained police investigator and SWAT team member. The author of ten books, he received his PhD from Louisiana Baptist University. He and his wife, Terry, along with their children, make their home in the Pikes Peak region of Colorado.

Searching for the True Location of Christ’s Crucifixion

Warning! This book will challenge your understanding as to where Jesus Christ was crucified. Known for his detective approach to Bible archaeology, Bob Cornuke sets aside the emotionally held traditions of the past that may have obscured the pathway to truth and opens the door to a whole new way of finding the Biblical site of the crucifixion. By using the compass of solid evidence, Bob charts a course for discovery that will thrill the willing Bible explorer who is on a quest for truth.

Don’t let tradition get in the way of truth. A must-read for the serious Bible student.

A former police investigator and SWAT team member, Bob Cornuke is a Biblical investigator, international explorer, and author of nine books. He has participated in over sixty expeditions around the world searching for lost locations Robert Cornuke described in the Bible.

Search for the Ark of the Covenant DVD (1 Hr) US$14.95 Paperback Book US$12.00

The search for the Ark of the Covenant has been dramatized in movies and researched in documentaries over the years, capturing the imaginations of archaeologists and Christians the world over. Although the final resting place of the Ark is controversial, and clouded with confusion, explorer Bob Cornuke believes that the Ark of the Covenant was transported from ancient Israel and is in Ethiopia today.

As unusual as Ethiopia may sound, Cornuke has uncovered compelling evidence that the Ark may well have been spirited up the Nile River to an eventual resting place in the remote highlands of ancient Kush – modern Ethiopia. Cornuke travels to Axum, where today he believes the Ark is kept in absolute isolation at St. Mary of Zion Church by a man referred to as “The Guardian of the Ark of the Covenant.”

Now Bob, using all of his training and skills as a police investigator, takes you along for a first-hand account of his journey. Join this modern-day Indiana Jones on his adventure to Ethiopia, Egypt, Israel, and Rome where Bob will uncover evidence that very well may reveal where the Ark of the Covenant is today.
