End Of The World In 2007

AOC 2007

I've often been asked if the 70th week of Daniel was to begin on January 1, 2007, how would we know. The reason people ask this question is because, as we've been reporting, on January 1, 2007, a covenant with many -- including Israel -- is to be confirmed for a seven-year period. My answer is always the same. The way we will know is if we see something happen regarding the the Jewish people, Jerusalem and the Temple Mount. The angel Gabriel told the prophet Daniel:

Seventy weeks have been decreed for your people and your holy city, to finish the transgression, to make an end of sin, to make atonement for iniquity, to bring in everlasting righteousness, to seal up vision and prophecy and to anoint the most holy place. So you are to know and discern that from the issuing of a decree to restore and rebuild Jerusalem until Messiah the Prince there will be seven weeks and sixty-two weeks; it will be built again, with plaza and moat, even in times of distress (Daniel 9:24-25 New American Standard Bible).

The above prophecy makes it clear that the 70 weeks are the period of time that God decreed for the Jewish people and their city. So, it stands to reason that the final week would also have something to do with the Jewish people and their city. And, since the beginning of the 70 week period began with a change in the political reality regarding Jerusalem, it stands to reason the final week may also begin the same way. And, as I said in my previous commentary, that may be exactly what we're seeing in the UN's new Alliance of Civilizations (AOC). Let me explain:

What I'm finding is the AOC is an attempt at bringing together many different important security arrangements and programs -- that of governments, NGOs and UN agencies -- into one vast program under one new super UN entity. Included in these security arraignments we find the EU's 1995 Euro-Mediterranean Partnership for Peace and the Barcelona Process. As you know, the goal of the Euromed is to create a zone of peace and stability between the 25 EU member states and 10 Mediterranean nations -- including Israel and the Palestinian Authority.

The Euromed was negotiated in Barcelona Spain by the EU's Javier Solana. The AOC is also a Spanish sponsored initiative -- along with Turkey. The implications are obvious. What we're seeing -- as far as the Middle East peace process is concerned -- is a continuation of the process started in Spain at the Madrid Conference back in 1991. After the Madrid Conference came the Spain sponsored Euromed. After the Euromed came the Spaniard, Javier Solana's, European Neighborhood Policy and its following seven-year confirming instrument. And, now we have the Spain sponsored AOC.

Now we come to my main point. The AOC is to start in 2009 and be fully operational in 2010. In order to meet the 2009 starting date, a resolution must be presented to the UN Security Council in 2007 AOC report (pdf). Friends, is it possible that this UN resolution could be the start of the new political reality that will allow the Jewish people their last and final week as foretold in Daniel? In other words, as a king's decree was necessary to start the 70 weeks, could a UN resolution mark the beginning of the final week?

Let's take a look at what remains of Daniel's prophecy:

Then after the sixty-two weeks the Messiah will be cut off and have nothing, and the people of the prince who is to come will destroy the city and the sanctuary and its end will come with a flood; even to the end there will be war; desolations are determined.

We know this prophecy was fulfilled in 70 AD when Titus destroyed Jerusalem and the Jewish Temple. But, what follows has never been fulfilled. The prophecy continues:

And he [the Antichrist] will make a firm [or confirm] covenant with the many for one week, but in the middle of the week he will put a stop to sacrifice and grain offering; and on the wing of abominations will come one who makes desolate, even until a complete destruction, one that is decreed, is poured out on the one who makes desolate (Daniel 9:26-27).

Could the Euromed and the AOC be the covenant with many that the Bible refers to? Could the final week begin in 2007?

We soon shall see.

Personal note: Yes, what exciting times we are living in! We shall soon see.
