Talk about BIG NEWS where Bible prophecy is concerned!
In Bible prophecy, we're told that the Antichrist to come is going to enter a rebuilt Holy Temple of the Jewish people at the midpoint of the seven-year Tribulation Period to come in what is commonly referred to as the abomination of desolation, one description of which is found in Daniel 9:27: And he shall confirm the covenant with many for one week: and in the midst of the week he shall cause the sacrifice and the oblation to cease, and for the overspreading of abominations he shall make [it] desolate, even until the consummation, and that determined shall be poured upon the desolate.
There is so much information contained in this one prophetic verse of scripture!
The 'he' spoken of is the Antichrist. It is the Antichrist who will confirm (or make strong) a covenant of peace in the Middle East seven precise years in length. It is important that we note that he is the one who will confirm a covenant of peace in the troubled Middle East, not necessarily the one who will author said covenant. His confirmation of peace will be supported by a group of many. The "many" could be the Arab League, the international Quartet or a yet-to-be-formed group. We just don't know.
At the midpoint of the seven-year covenant's duration, which will run concurrently with the prophesied seven-year Tribulation Period and be preceded by the Rapture of the Church, the Antichrist is going to declare himself to be god, enter a rebuilt Holy Temple and end the Jewish people's sacrificing of animals in accordance with their Old Testament-defined practices, and, thus, desecrate it. For this to occur, in fulfillment of Bible prophecy, the 3rd Holy Temple must be built --- and now we're hearing that it will be in 2008.
