The document discusses biblical references to the reign of the "desolate," an antichrist figure. It notes that scripture determines his reign will last 1290 days, 42 months, or 3 1/2 years. During this time, there will be both war and peace in imperfect human governance. The document urges readers to keep their garments clean until 1335 days are fulfilled, when the Most High will give the Kingdom to His saints. It calls on those restored as priests and kings to advance the interests of God's kingdom through their endeavors.
The end of desolation
- 1. THE END OF DESOLATION: 1290 Days and No More The reign of the desolate has been pre-determined (citation) The Desolate here being a pseudonym for the king of Babylon; the antichrist. Right from the time he was set up until that which was determined against him is fulfilled, 3 ½ years ( citation to be supplied), 42 months ( citation) or 1290 days (citation) were given. In the opening passage above, he doesn’t have one week to rule but in the midst of the remaining one week to complete the 70 weeks given to humanity – that is within that one week leading to the end, he has a chance to make covenants with apostates in preparation for his assuming power. Still within that week, he is given 3 ½ years. In the light of the above, 3 ½ years of peace and 3 ½ years of war does not necessarily mean we have to sum it up to 7 years rule, but 3 ½ years in which there will be both war and peace. It means a mixed grill or imperfect human governance. Other interpretations will seem to be anti-scripture. Blessed are they who keep their garments clean until the 1335 days are fulfilled – that is, the short interlude between when the desolate is broken and when the Most High gives the Kingdom to His saints. We were created to subdue and dominate the earth. We have been redeemed and restored as priests and kings. What are you? How is that advancing the interests of the Kingdom of God? Remember, the Most High gives the Kingdom to His saints, and we shall be His people and He our God. Those who have been restored ought to enter the trenches, as priests or kings in our different endeavours for the glory of the Kingdom. Watch and pray, for with peace he shall destroy many? How does God define death or destruction? Shalom!!
