Study on Daniel 9:27 "... and for the overspreading of abominations he shall make it desolate, even until the consummation, and that determined shall be poured upon the desolate." (Part 6)
MP3 article voiceover included.
This article continues from where I have left off at Study on Daniel 9:27 "… and for the overspreading of abominations he shall make it desolate, even until the consummation, and that determined shall be poured upon the desolate" (Part 5), where I have exposed, with backing from scripture, how the system of eschatology of dispensationalism is at work to subtly lead the great majority of Christendom into committing what Matthew 12:31-32 calls “blasphemy against the Holy Ghost,” or what Psalms 19:13 revealed as “the great transgression.” Blasphemy against the Holy Ghost is evidence for the “falling away” (Greek: “apostasia”) that must take place: Christendom must receive the mark of the beast, and “that Wicked” of 2 Thessalonians 2:8 be revealed, before the “day of Christ” (2 Thessalonians 2:1-2) can come. Until the day of Christ comes, the dead in Christ cannot be raised from the dead, and they which are alive and remain cannot be caught up together with the risen in Christ in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air. Since Part 1, I have been very much focused on what Daniel 9:27 calls “the desolate.” Jesus said in Matthew 23:38 “Behold, your house is left unto you desolate.” The house is the temple of God, and if the temple of our body is become desolate, that means the Spirit of the Lord has departed.
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.”
The term “the desolate” in this verse refers to what John reveals for us in Revelation 13:16 as “all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and bond” who shall receive a mark in their right hand, or in their foreheads. The temple of their bodies have become desolate when the Spirit of the Lord departed the same time they received the mark of the beast. There is no more covering of righteousness on them. So, when the marriage supper of the Lamb shall come, the wrath of God shall be poured upon all who have received the mark of the beast at the behest of the false prophet, Christians included. What led to the eventual “falling away” (Greek: “apostasia”) of Christendom? Paul reveals in 2 Thessalonians 2:7 “the mystery of iniquity doth already work.” An evil ideology masquerading as good doctrine has been subtly guiding the great majority of Christendom into committing the unpardonable sin. Since Part 1, I have been sharing about dispensationalism, but I don’t think I am quite done on this topic yet. Some years back, I have been asked to explain what dispensationalism is about in simple layman terms. I said: “dispensationalism is a philosophical framework that undergirds the interpretation of scriptures.” To illustrate what I meant, I used the analogy of a pizza.
On the will of God for mankind, the bible tells us:
Hebrews 10:7 “Then said I, Lo, I come (in the volume of the book it is written of me,) to do thy will, O God.”
Psalms 40:7-8 “Then said I, Lo, I come: in the volume of the book it is written of me, 8 I delight to do thy will, O my God: yea, thy law is within my heart.”
The psalmist tells us in these scriptures that the Son of God Jesus Christ came in “the volume of the book” that is written of him, to do the will of God the Father. That is a reference to the canonical volume of the Holy Bible: the will of God is embedded in the 66 books of the Holy Bible, in two separate testaments: the 39 books of the Old Testament, and the 27 books of the New Testament. They are called “testaments” because Jesus Christ is the testator who came to execute the will of God the Father embedded in the volume of the book that is written of him. The bible tells us:
Hebrews 9:16 “For where a testament is, there must also of necessity be the death of the testator.”
The fact the 66 books of the Holy Bible are arranged in two testaments means that both the Old Testament and the New Testament conclusively prove the death of the testator Jesus Christ, for where a testament is, there must also of necessity be the death of the testator. That is the basis of the great gospel verse in John 3:16 “For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son…,” the clearest proof of God’s will for mankind to be saved through the death of his only begotten Son. God’s plan for the salvation of mankind is encapsulated in every word of God in the 66 books of the Holy Bible, from Genesis to Revelation. Previously, I did a bible study on this topic. More reading in this link: Study on John 3:16 "For God so loved the world…" As what I have shared in Part 5, the will of God for the salvation of mankind is progressively revealed from Genesis to Revelation, but it is the same throughout the 66 books of the Holy Bible. Supposed that the volume of the written word of God is a pizza: no matter how many slices the pizza is divided, it will still be one same flavour, isn’t it? That is because the same ingredients are there in every single slice. It is the same with the written word of God: from Genesis to Revelation, every word of God points to the same will of God. Paul tells us in this verse:
1 Corinthians 14:33 "For God is not the author of confusion, but of peace, as in all churches of the saints."
God is the sole Author of the volume of the book that is written of the Son of God, Jesus Christ, according to this verse. However, there is another “author” masquerading as the Spirit of God, the divine Author of the 66 books of the Holy Bible. Paul reveals him as the “author of confusion.” The opposite of confusion is “order,” and all forms of the word “order” are found in exactly 66 verses in the 1611 King James Bible, pointing to the 66 books of the Holy Bible. Nothing is coincidence in the pure word of God. God is not the author of confusion, but of peace and order. The author of confusion is that little-g god pretending to be the Spirit of God, and we can find evidence of this little-g god at work if we look for “confusion,” just like what the bible shows us in the words of the serpent:
Genesis 3:1 “Now the serpent was more subtil than any beast of the field which the LORD God had made. And he said unto the woman, Yea, hath God said, Ye shall not eat of every tree of the garden?”
The words “yea, hath God said?” is to introduce uncertainty, and uncertainty is what confusion is about. The woman Eve was thrown into confusion when the original author of confusion introduced uncertainty that caused her to doubt the words of the Lord in Genesis 2:17, wherein, is embedded the will of God concerning the tree of the knowledge of good and evil. It was through confusion that the serpent was able to re-interpret the will of God for the woman Eve, and caused her to break God’s commandment for mankind. Have you come across the quote "out of chaos, comes order" (“Ordo Ab Chao”)? Chaos is confusion. It was first by creating confusion through various forms of subterfuge, then using this as an excuse, that the devilish hierarchy in this world could institute a New World Order that impose totalitarian control over the people. BTW, "Novus Ordo Seclorum" is Latin for "New Order of the Ages," and these words are found embedded in the US dollar, under the unfinished pyramid which is made up of 72 bricks, and laid up in 13 layers. “Ages” is another word for dispensation. So, we know that Novus Ordo Seclorum (“New Order of the Ages”) points to the next dispensation, called “dispensation of Kingdom,” basically the millennium reign whereby ethnic Jews would rule the earth as king-priests for a thousand years. Incoincidentally, the number 72 = (6 + 6) x 6 bears the pattern of the number 666, while bricks are literally stones made with hand, and Acts 17:24 tells us that God would not dwell in temples made with hands.
2 Corinthians 11:14-15 “And no marvel; for Satan himself is transformed into an angel of light. 15 Therefore it is no great thing if his ministers also be transformed as the ministers of righteousness; whose end shall be according to their works.”
When the interpretation of the will of God is made subject to man’s doctrines, the Devil could subtly impose control by transforming himself into an angel of light, and his ministers transformed as ministers of righteousness. That was what happened in Genesis 3 with the woman Eve, who was deceived into doing the Devil’s will. The penalty for breaking God’s commandment in Genesis 2:17 was physical death, and so death reigns over mankind ever since. Now, the same author of confusion is at work to damn mankind to the second death through the mark of the beast. Again, we will find evidence of the author of confusion at work if we discern by the written word of God. By far, the clearest evidence of confusion has been the modern bible versions which seek to hijack the interpretation of the will of God for the church. However, it is not just the modern bible versions that are tampering with the will of God, but the system of doctrine of dispensationalism too, because it is a philosophical framework that undergirds the interpretation of scriptures. On the written word of God, Peter tells us in these verses:
2 Peter 1:19-20 “We have also a more sure word of prophecy; whereunto ye do well that ye take heed, as unto a light that shineth in a dark place, until the day dawn, and the day star arise in your hearts: 20 Knowing this first, that no prophecy of the scripture is of any private interpretation.”
The 66 books of the Holy Bible is a “more sure word of prophecy” because there is no room for private interpretation. Bible must interpret bible: the written word of God must not be made subject to a philosophical framework that governs the interpretation. Back to the pizza example, the will of God for salvation is the same throughout the history of mankind. The pizza must be one flavour, no matter how many slices it is divided. The same may not be said of dispensationalism, which is like a pizza of seven different flavours joined together as one: there is a slice with ham and cheese topping, there is a slice with seafood topping, there is a slice with vegetarian topping, there is a slice with mushroom topping, there is a slice with BBQ chicken topping, there is a slice with pepperoni topping, and finally there is a slice with margherita topping. All seven flavours are joined together as one single pizza so that no one slice taste the same as the rest of the pizza. It is confusion, and God is not the author of confusion! BTW, In the system of doctrine of dispensationalism, seven dispensations are joined together in one timeline of human history. Why seven dispensations?
Revelation 12:3 “And there appeared another wonder in heaven; and behold a great red dragon, having seven heads and ten horns, and seven crowns upon his heads.”
The bible shows us in this verse that the great red dragon (“Satan”) has seven heads in one body. Seven heads means seven independent minds and seven individual wills, yet they are joined together in one body. Isn’t this like the seven dispensations of dispensationalism? These so-called periods of “dispensations” are joined together in one system of doctrine. The seven dispensations are seven distinct ages. Each dispensation is attributed with a distinct theme, and when put together, they signify the change of the will of God for mankind throughout the timeline of human history. The bible must be portrayed to show the change of the will of God throughout the timeline of human history so as to allow syncretism between the different dispensations. We find that evidence, for example, on page 1,115 of the Scofield Reference Bible, which says:
“As a dispensation, grace begins with the death and resurrection of Christ (Romans 3:24-26; 4:24,25). The point of testing is no longer legal obedience as the condition of salvation, but acceptance or rejection of Christ, with good works as a fruit of salvation…” (p. 1115, Scofield Reference Bible)
According to Scofield, the dispensation of Grace began with the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ, after previous the dispensation of Law ended. It signified a change of the will of God from legal obedience of the Law as condition of salvation under the dispensation of Law, to the acceptance or rejection of Jesus Christ as condition of salvation under the dispensation of Grace. Dispensationalism teaches a different plan of salvation for a different dispensation, which was where they were able to insert the teaching that ethnic Jews have a different plan of salvation as compared to the gentile church. According to the teachings of dispensationalism, the gentile church is saved by accepting Jesus Christ as Lord and Saviour under the dispensation of Grace, but ethnic Jews will be saved at Jesus return to establish a Jewish kingdom on earth at his second coming under the dispensation of Kingdom. For that to be accepted by the Church, the bible must be forcefully interpreted to reflect the tenet doctrine: “different dispensation, different method of salvation!”
Dispensationalism have presented various means of salvation for different ages, as evident in the report adopted by the Southern Presbyterian Church in the United States. That report, adopted by the assembly in May, 1944, was in part as follows:
“It is the unanimous opinion of your Committee that dispensationalism is out of accord with the system of doctrines set forth in the Confession of Faith, not primarily or simply in the field of eschatology, but because it attacks the very heart of the theology of our Church. Dispensationalism rejects the doctrine that God has, since the Fall, but one plan of salvation for all mankind and affirms that God has been through the ages administering various and diverse plans of salvation for various groups…”
As what I have shared in the earlier part of this article, the will of God for salvation of mankind don’t change with time. Every word in the 66 books of the Holy Bible is inspired, preserved, translated and ordered by the same Spirit of God, to reveal the righteousness of God from “faith to faith” (Romans 1:17). The will of God is progressively revealed from Genesis to Revelation. The truth don’t change with time because the will of God don’t change with time. The written word of God is called “the word” (singular) because it speaks with one accord and one mind throughout the history of the Holy Bible, no matter how many slices the word is divided.
2 Timothy 2:15 "Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth."
Paul tells us to rightly divide the word of truth in this verse. BTW, this is a favourite verse that dispensationalists like to bring up to condemn those who disagree with their doctrines of “rightly dividing the word of truth.” In the words of A.W. Pink, they have very little or nothing to say about the first two clauses of 2 Timothy 2:15, but on the third one, that is, “rightly dividing the word of truth,” they claimed it is to be understood as “correctly partitioning the scriptures unto the different peoples to whom they belong.” As what I have shared earlier, that was where they were able to sneak in their doctrines on Jewish elitism and frame it as the will of God. Instead of dividing the word of God precept upon precept, precept upon precept, line upon line, line upon line, here a little, and there a little, according to Isaiah 28:10, dispensationalism artificially divides the entire history of mankind into seven distinct ages (or what they call “dispensations”), and arbitrarily partitions the written word of God into sets of scripture assign for different peoples born under each of these so-called “dispensations.”
Associated with each of these so-called dispensations are guidelines governing the interpretation of scriptures, subjecting the written word of God to their doctrine of “rightly dividing the word of truth,” instead of interpreting the word of God precept upon precept, precept upon precept, line upon line, line upon line, here a little, and there a little, according to Isaiah 28:10. Below is one example showing how scriptures are to be interpreted according to the teachings of dispensationalism:
“Especially is it necessary to exclude the notion — a legacy in Protestant thought from post-apostolic and Roman Catholic theology — that the Church is the true Israel, and that the Old Testament foreview of the kingdom is fulfilled in the Church” (p. 989, Scofield Reference Bible).
Dispensationalism requires a departure from the historic teaching that the Church is the true Israel, and that the Old Testament foreview of the kingdom is fulfilled in the Church. Indeed, these mutilators of the Word tell us that all of the Old Testament from Genesis 12 onwards belongs entirely to Israel after the flesh, and that none of its precepts (as such) are binding upon those who are members of the Church which is the body of Christ, nor may any of the promises found therein be legitimately appropriated by them. Not satisfied with their determined efforts to deprive us of the Old Testament, these wannabe super-expositors dogmatically assert that the four Gospels are Jewish, and that the Epistles of James and Peter, John and Jude only are designed for a “godly Jewish remnant” in a future “tribulation period,” and that nothing but the Pauline Epistles contain “church truth.” That is a necessary departure from the historic teaching that must happen because it allows them to “rightly divide the word of truth” or partition the scriptures unto the different peoples to whom they belong, so that the word of God can be interpreted to reflect the tenet principles of their doctrines. They further assert that those who decline their doctrine of “correctly partitioning the scriptures unto the different peoples to whom they belong” are to be regarded as untaught and superficial. The bible calls that teachings of rebellion.
Jeremiah 28:16 "Therefore thus saith the LORD; Behold, I will cast thee from off the face of the earth: this year thou shalt die, because thou hast taught rebellion against the LORD."
All forms of false teachings are to promote rebellion against the LORD. Rebellion against the LORD was taught to the people of God during the time of Jeremiah, so as to remove their fear of the Lord holding them accountable to the commandments of God. Likewise, dispensationalism being a philosophical framework that undergirds the interpretation of scripture is also taught to churches all over the world. The purpose is to remove the spirit of the fear of the Lord (Isaiah 11:2) from the church. When the spirit of the fear of the Lord is removed, the church will be “liberated” from the commandments of the Lord holding them accountable. It will be like “do what thou wilt shall be the whole of the Law,” according to the satanic high priest Aleister Crowley, whom John N. Darby, the father of dispensationalism, was involved with during the Plymouth Brethren Movement.
The outcome of the teachings of rebellion will be like what this passage of scripture tells us:
Nehemiah 9:16-17 "But they and our fathers dealt proudly, and hardened their necks, and hearkened not to thy commandments, 17 And refused to obey, neither were mindful of thy wonders that thou didst among them; but hardened their necks, and in their rebellion appointed a captain to return to their bondage: but thou art a God ready to pardon, gracious and merciful, slow to anger, and of great kindness, and forsookest them not."
When the written word of God is made subject to a philosphical framework that undergirds the interpretation of scripture, the truth is made subject to man’s philosophy. It is no longer sola scriptura, but scripture becomes secondary and supplementary. Remember Paul warns us in 2 Thessalonians 2:7 that the mystery of iniquity doth already work to take the Spirit of the Lord out of the way? The Spirit of the Lord will be taken out of the way when the written word of God is finally divorced from churches all over the world. The truth no longer has a voice in churches when it is replaced by man’s philosophy. It will be man’s doctrines that have the final say over the body of Christ, and that is what the Devil is trying to achieve. We find evidence of that in the teachings of dispensationalism: for example, the bible tells us in Matthew 24:29 and Mark 13:24 that the rapture will happen immediately after the tribulation of those days. However, dispensationalism blatantly disregards what the bible plainly tells us in these two verses, which are also being witnessed by Paul in:
2 Thessalonians 2:3-4 “Let no man deceive you by any means: for that day shall not come, except there come a falling away first, and that man of sin be revealed, the son of perdition; 4 Who opposeth and exalteth himself above all that is called God, or that is worshipped; so that he as God sitteth in the temple of God, shewing himself that he is God.”
Paul tells us that the day of the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ and our gathering together unto him shall not come except there come a “falling away” (Greek: “apostasia”) first, and that man of sin, the son of perdition be revealed. Instead, dispensationalism teaches that the “Anti-Christ” cannot appear except the secret pre-tribulation rapture for the gentile church saved under the “dispensation of Grace” happens first, turning the word of God upside down (Isaiah 29:16). Using their system of reasoning (private interpretation of scriptures), they have hijacked the will of God in Matthew 24:29 and Mark 13:24, and re-interpreted it so that they are aligned with the principles of dispensational teachings. That is why when dispensationalists are asked about their view on the timing of the rapture according to Matthew 24:29 and Mark 13:24, a typical reply from them would be “No, those verses are not applicable for the church. They are for the Jews.” In that, they have dealt proudly, and hardened their necks, and hearkened not to the word of God, and refused to obey in their rebellion against God (Nehemiah 9:16-17). BTW, when it comes to national Israel and the Church, not all dispensationalists share the same view. This has perhaps led to the splintering out of a small group of dispensationalists who called themselves “hyper-dispensationalists.” Hyper-dispensationalism argues that only the writings of Paul are applicable for the Church, but the rest of the Holy Bible are not.
The bible compares rebellion to the sin of witchcraft:
1 Samuel 15:23 “For rebellion is as the sin of witchcraft, and stubbornness is as iniquity and idolatry. Because thou hast rejected the word of the LORD, he hath also rejected thee from being king.”
The act of rebellion is as witchcraft. Witchcraft is the art of witches, which include various forms of sorcery, enchantments, and intercourse with evil spirits. The basis of the sin of witchcraft is the rejection of the written word of God, in that sense, the commandment of God must be replaced by the teachings of rebellion. That means that the spirit of antichrist must substitute the Spirit of truth in helping the Church to “rightly divide the word of truth,” so as to make the word of God of none effect to the people. When the truth is substituted with a lie, the lie becomes “the truth” (Jesus) for the people following the lie. Paul calls that “another Jesus” in 2 Corinthians 11:4. We have a picture of that in 1 Samuel 28, how King Saul sought after a woman that hath a familiar spirit. In 1 Kings 18:18, the children of Israel forsook the commandments of the LORD to follow after Baalim. It is the same with churches that have abandoned the written word of God (Jesus) for witchcraft (another Jesus). When they abandon the word of truth, they have also at the same time abandon the Spirit of truth, because the Spirit of truth cannot be decoupled from the word of truth. Paul tells us in 2 Thessalonians 2:7 “For the mystery of iniquity doth already work: only he who now letteth will let, until he be taken out of the way.” The mystery of iniquity is at work to take the Spirit of the Lord out of the way. That must happen before the mark of the beast can be implemented. Paul used the words “strong delusion” in:
2 Thessalonians 2:10-12 “And with all deceivableness of unrighteousness in them that perish; because they received not the love of the truth, that they might be saved. 11 And for this cause God shall send them strong delusion, that they should believe a lie: 12 That they all might be damned who believed not the truth, but had pleasure in unrighteousness.”
When witchcraft replaces the written word of God, when “another Jesus” replaces the true Jesus, when “another gospel” replaces the true gospel, when “another spirit” replaces the Spirit of God, when churches all over the world abandon the truth for a lie, when the great majority of Christendom is led by a lie, that is also God who send them strong delusion, that they should believe in a lie, because they received not the love of the truth, that they might be saved. Jesus tells us in Matthew 24:12-13 “And because iniquity shall abound, the love of many shall wax cold. But he that shall endure unto the end, the same shall be saved.” Notice their love of God went from hot to cold. Notice their love of “the truth” (Jesus) went from hot to cold. That is because they received not the love of the truth, that they might be saved. The lie they received will eventually lead them to receive the mark of the beast, and that will be the “falling away” (Greek: “apostasia”) that Paul has prophesied will happen in 2 Thessalonians 2:3. Only God’s elect people whose love of God and love of the truth shall endure unto the end, and they shall be saved. The rest of Christendom shall perish with the lie.
Matthew 15:14 “Let them alone: they be blind leaders of the blind. And if the blind lead the blind, both shall fall into the ditch.”
The blind lead the blind, and both shall fall into the ditch. This verse is a reference of the “falling away” (Greek: “apostasia”) that shall come. Dispensationalism’s questionable hermeneutic encourage Christians to interpret the bible in ways that were never intended to be. Faulty interpretations have led to much confusion, intense conflict, and many doubts about the reliability of scripture, leaving the church open and vulnerable to spiritual diseases. The spiritual diseases took root and manifested as mass apostasy, doctrinal compromises, and numerous, serious heresies such as the false gospel of social justice. Dispensationalism has paved the way for the moral dark age of modernity. The cultural ramifications of these developments require no elaboration. To continue in Part 7.

Strongest indictment I have ever read against "dispensationalism."
Well done!
So well explained!! THANK YOU! I have had an old YouTube channel on my mind for awhile, that I wanted to revisit, but couldn't remember the name or the man who ran it. I prayed about it, but nothing came. This article and illustration showed me what he is preaching, and why I had left it long ago...and to NOT GO THERE. That was the Bible made easy illustration. So this showed up in my E-mail this morning, and I do believe there are no coincidences--and the Lord warned me away, and it shows how to see who is in the same delusion and false teaching. They are so crafty to say you will be surprised at this "revelation" or teaching, and will be tempted to not believe it, etc. Luring...cunningly...enticing away...and so many are falling into the trap, as I did myself years ago. "The snake was more subtle..." This whole article is so...ok, just trying to say I"m grateful for true watchmen and REAL Christians-helping bring people out of confusion and delusion, if they can still take it in, and SEE it. Prayers for blessings!
