THE JUDGEMENT OF DANIEL 7:26.
WHEN? AGAINST WHOM?
"…for
three years and half a year the saints shall be handed over to him. Then the
court of Justice shall sit, and his dominion shall be taken away, to be
destroyed and ended for all time". (From Dan 7:25,26 Moffatt).
"And the Court itself proceeded to sit, and his own rulership they
finally took away, in order to annihilate
him and to destroy him totally". (Dan 7:26 NWT).
THE
JUDGEMENT OF THE COURT AGAINST WHOM?
This Judgement is with reference to the evil activities
of individuals against anointed heavenly Kingdom heirs of God (Christ's Spirit
anointed brothers) during the almost completed 3˝ year period during
which these heirs were "handed over" to satan and his followers
standing in authority in a holy place. These followers removed the
"constant feature" (Holy Spirit) by removing anointed witnesses of God
on earth. This Judgement is also with reference to those who followed the
directives of this "disgusting thing" standing in authority in a
holy place and supported their evil activities. (See Matt 24:9-12
& 15).
WHEN
WILL IT TAKE PLACE?
Unlike earthly courts, the Judgement of
Almighty God by His Christ Michael is perfect Justice. And that is how it will
be when satan's rule through JW members of his "disgusting thing"
has run its course and the prophesied Judgement of God takes away his and their
dominion for all time. This Judgement will be commensurate with evidence of the
evil activities of unsealed JW
'elders' now
standing in authority in a holy place. (Dan 12:2). The 3˝ year
period during which Christ's Spirit anointed brothers were "handed over"
to satan and his followers ends January 19th
1979. Unsealed JW
'elders' are the only "disgusting thing"
that have profaned the sanctuary of God ("a holy place") on earth.
(Matt 24:15). As it is for a period of 3˝ years that satan has
exerted power over God's anointed Kingdom heirs on earth, it is with particular
reference to this period that the Heavenly Court of God gives Judgement. (Dan
7:26) (Rev 11:1-3).
The devil satan and his
followers would certainly not be allowed to rule for an extended term of office
such as the past 56 years, as claimed by unfaithful covenant-leavers falsely
calling themselves Jehovah's Witnesses, who teach that the prophesied 3˝
year period ended March 1922! For this to be true would mean that the sanctuary
of God has already been restored, that the annihilation of satan has already
been carried out, and that the Kingdom of God and all rulerships under heaven
have already been given to the holy ones of the Supreme One! (7:26,27 & 8:14). Of course, these things are yet to be fulfilled.
| DURING
THE 3˝ YEAR PERIOD. |
| (1) |
Unsealed
JW
'elders' stand
in authority over the "holy place" of faithful anointed ones. |
|
(2) |
Unsealed
JW
'elders' fulfil
satan's intention to change the "times and Law" of God. |
|
(3) |
They thereby "harass continually
the holy ones of the Supreme One." (Dan 7:25).
(For further details see Page 856 of the
"Little Scroll").
|
|
SOMETIME AFTER THE 3˝ YEAR PERIOD. |
| (4) |
The
dominion of satan and his followers who stood in a holy place during the designated
3˝ year period will be annihilated. (7:26). |
|
(5) |
The sanctuary of God shall then be restored. (8:14).
All kingdoms and rulerships on earth will serve and obey the holy ones. (7:27). |
|
(6) |
Those who removed the "constant
feature" (anointed sons of God) and ruled
in their place will be awakened to the knowledge
that they are to suffer reproaches
and be an indefinitely lasting abhorrence before God
and His people. (12:2). |
|
(7) |
Judgement
will be given in favour of the holy ones of the Supreme One, and satan's claim
to sovereignty over mankind through those
of his choosing (without the Spirit of God)
will be defeated.
(7:22). |
