I am but His humble servant and happily so.<br />@Ed Bonderenka ~ I once read all that extensively. The teacher I had at the time showed how the "7 weeks" yet to be fulfilled was the Tribulation (3 1/2 years) and the Great Tribulation (also 3 1/2 years). There's much, much more to that. I recommend listening to some of Zola Levett's old TV showings. They might be on YouTube. He's a Christian Jew. Very knowledgeable about the Old Testament and how it all points to our Messiah, Jesus Christ.<br />Thanks again! And I pray everyone has a very blessed, safe day. ~:) Sparkyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09531515666554867421noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5095611861780381961.post-61625460827868946582015-09-06T09:27:05.168-04:002015-09-06T09:27:05.168-04:00Good post.

Any one who doesnt read it, is missing out on so much. I dont go to a movie for the credits at the end...I want to see the whole thing...same with Old, then New Testaments.
