Overview
I published ‘The One World Government’ in 2020 some 90 plus pages. Not conducive for a quick 10-minute read on the Internet. So I’ve divide it into a few manageable ‘Short Papers’, also revising some of my earlier work. Below I’ve given you the links to ALL the related ‘Short Papers’ on the “OWG”.. The One World Government Study. This basically gives you an index. The first four from the Futurist View (FV). The rest are from the Historical View (HV)!

Revision
In the talks entitled; OWG1 FV - The Origin Of The One World Government, I used the Futurist View to look at where the idea of a future One World Government came from, along with other important building blocks needed to formulate this study. In OWG2 FV - The Ten Toes, Horns Or Kings I explained the meanings of the Ten Toes, Horns Or Kings. In OWG3 FV - The Little Horn Dan 7 I examined the prophecies regarding the Little Horn. In OWG4 FV - The Time of the End I examined the prophecies regarding the Little Horn ie, the future antichrist and the final end of ‘The One World Government’. In OWG5 HV - The Historical View Reasoning we examined Why Do Historicists Think The Way they do? Mainly because of the differences in how they interpret some key scriptures. In OWG6 HV - The “Ten, Toes, Horns, Kings” we covered a lot of ground in Daniel 2. The ten kingdoms, they CAN NOT Unite, the ‘Stone Kingdom and finally the Beast of Dan 7. In OWG7 HV - [9] Characteristics of The Little Horn Daniel 7, we examine Nine Characteristics of the Little Horn in Daniel 7 that we can use to identify the antichrist. 

Aim
In this talk OWG8 HV - Who Are The Saints Who Topple The Antichrist? I hope to show you that God has an earthly team He uses to destroy the antichrist. And His “SOM” team, (Saints of the Most High), is active all through Daniel, right up to the end in chapter 12.


Remember we talked about ‘Ten Toes’ would NOT cleave one to another, indicating the ‘Ten’ kingdoms Would NOT Form A One World Government! This is another clear indication that the ‘Ten Kings’ in some way turn against the antichrist. And you may well ask, “How do the saint of the Most High topple the antichrist rule and possess the kingdom?” Well this brings us to another subject altogether! This subject is misunderstood, misquoted, so ridiculed and laughed at, that these days nobody even bothers to look into it. PLEASE just bear with me to the end of this paragraph! I am not trying to preach on this subject! But I find it’s the only way to make sense of ‘God’s Big Picture’. It’s the study of Anglo-Saxon-Israel, also known as British Israelism, [And I hat the phrase “ism”!! It is like saying Hinduism, Buddhism, New Ageism or a host of other “ism’s”!! Referring to it as a separate religion? British Israel believers are Christians who just happen to trust God, that when He makes a convenient He keeps it!]. British Israel Teaching has, “roots in the 16th century”. When this teaching first came out it was quite sound and scripturally correct. People will brand it with, ‘It’s Racist’, or ‘It’s A Replacement Theory!’ Which it is not! The Anglo-Saxon people DO NOT replace the Jews. Nor does the Church replace the Jews!

But try this; ask an Orthodox Rabbi, “What happened to the lost 10 tribes?” 99% of the time you’ll get a resounding, “We don’t know!” To verify this go to, [Ref link Jewish Virtual Library], which is a wonderful collection of articles by reputable Jewish scholars. Then do a search for topics like, ‘Lost 10 tribes’, ‘Northern Kingdom’ or ‘The House of Israel’, and you will get the same answers, ‘they don’t know where they are!’ So where are the Lost 10 tribes? But 99% of Christian preachers will adamantly tell you, “But ALL Israel came back after Babylon!” (How come Christians know more about Israel’s heritage that the Jews?) But the bible clearly tells us the opposite. Refer Ezra 2:1 “the children ..of the captivity .. came again unto Jerusalem and Judah, every one unto his city”. If all Israel came back; then they would have come back to all the other cities of the Northern Kingdom, but they didn’t! Only the Jews came back! But we do know from prophecies that God has a glorious future for the ‘House of Israel’. And God says He will bless them long before the return of Christ, ref to one of my talks entitled, British Israel - The Unconditional Promises. So if the Anglo-Saxon people are not the fulfilment of those prophesies, then who is? For a very simple eye-opener on this subject may I suggest you go to another couple of my talks entitled: - [British Israel ‘Explained in 10 Minutes - Lesion 0.01] or British Israel - 1.01 [For Beginners]

So back to the question, ‘How did the saints of the Most High topple the antichrist rule?’ Well it’s basically this, the Anglo-Saxon people, (the Britains), where the foot hold of the reformers. Every time the antichrist launched an army against them God pushed them back. (Whether he was the ‘Little Horn’ or some other despot lead of the devil). The devil has attacked the Anglo-Saxon people over the centuries with, the Spanish Armada or the Communist French under Napoleon or The Nazi’s or the Japanese at Pearl Harbour. BUT God has had other plans, so He has used Anglo-Saxon-Israel, (Jacob), as His battle-axe! ‘Jacob’, is another name by which God refers to the 10 Tribes. Do a search for the word ‘Jacob', and you will find that God is using that word to refer to the 10 Tribes in all these books; Isaiah, Jeremiah, Lamentations, Ezekiel, Hosea, Amos, Obadiah, Micah, Nahum and Malachi.

Here is a great example, and I prefer KJV cause it sounds more gutsy! Jer 51:19 “The portion of Jacob is not like them; for he is the former of all things: and Israel is the rod of his inheritance: the LORD of hosts is his name. :20  Thou art my battle axe and weapons of war: for with thee will I break in pieces the nations, and with thee will I destroy kingdoms; :21  And with thee will I break in pieces the horse and his rider; and with thee will I break in pieces the chariot and his rider; :22  With thee also will I break in pieces man and woman; and with thee will I break in pieces old and young; and with thee will I break in pieces the young man and the maid; :23  I will also break in pieces with thee the shepherd and his flock; and with thee will I break in pieces the husbandman and his yoke of oxen; and with thee will I break in pieces captains and rulers.”
 
Read that passage again, it is an unconditional promise! God says nothing about Jacob has to be righteous! He simply says He is going to use Jacob to clean up the world. You can’t hope to apply this to the Jews of the past 1000 years or even to modern day Israel. No offence meant to our Jewish cousins. But this has been fulfilled through the Anglo-Saxon people, and is still in the process. Also Jacob has on his side the power of the Holy Spirit filled believers in the body of Christ. The Christians are ‘peppered’ throughout the Anglo-Saxon people, just like the Levitical priesthood of old was spread throughout ancient Israel. And here is a project for you; Do a study of the different revivals and the ‘days of national prayer’, particularly around the times of various wars. Here is one coincidence for you. The Anglo-Zulu War at the Battle of Rorke's Drift. On Jan 1879, 4000 Zulus descended on a Welsh-British regiment of only 150 men, the Welsh regiment held! Combine that with this, [Ref wiki Welsh Revival] “Between 1859 and 1904, there were local revivals in Cwmafan (1866), Rhondda (1879), Carmarthen and Blaenau Ffestiniog (1887), Dowlais (1890) and Pontnewydd (1892).” I don’t think those dates are just a coincidence! There would be Christian families back home in Wales knowing, from what they read in the newspapers, that their men folk were facing a savage confrontation with a massive overwhelming Zulu army. What would their gut reaction be? They would be interceding before God for their men in South Africa, and God answers prayer! Eph 2:4 “But God, who is rich in mercy, for His great love with which He loved us :5 (even when we were dead in sins) has made us alive together with Christ (by grace you are saved), :6 and has raised us up together and made us sit together in the heavenlies in Christ Jesus,” The Anglo-Saxon Christians of the world have been in spiritual warfare for centuries praying and interceding, and in so doing “Topple The Antichrist”. This is also reflected in Dan 7:26 “But the judgment shall sit, and they shall take away his rulership, to cut off and to destroy until the end. :27 And the kingdom and rulership, and the greatness of the kingdom under all the heavens, shall be given to the people of the saints of the Most High, whose kingdom is an everlasting kingdom. And all kingdoms shall serve and obey Him.”

I will be very brief on this chapter! Daniel chapter 8 has nothing to do with the One World Government. Most of the commentaries are divided along two separate lines regarding the 2300 days. Some choose the day-for-a-year reasoning, as does Adam Clarke, F.B. Meyer and others. [Ref CN by TSK Cross References on Daniel 8:14] “That is, 2,300 years, which reckoned from the time Alexander invaded Asia, B.C. 334, will be A.D. 1966.” Which is only one year before the Six-Day War so that doesn’t really quite fit with the idea that after the 2300 ‘days’, “then shall the sanctuary be cleansed.” But others side with a literal 2300 days. [Ref CN By Geneva on Daniel 8:14], also [Ref CN by Matthew Henry on Daniel 8:1-14] “..2300 days make six years and three months, and about eighteen days;” Personally I usually tend to side with ‘a-day-for-a-year’ principle, but I think John Gill is correct.

 

John Gill calculates using 2300 literal day to come to two different significant days. Which I think would be the most appropriate for God to reassure the Jews that Antiochus’ reign of tyranny would be short lived. [Ref CN by John Gill on Daniel 8:14] “and which make six years, three months, and eighteen days; and reckoning from the fifteenth day of the month Cisleu, in the year 145 of the Selucidae, in which Antiochus set up the abomination of desolation upon the altar, to the victory obtained over Nicanor by Judas, on the thirteenth day of the month Adar, Anno 151, are just 2300 days; which day the Jews kept as an annual feast, in commemoration of that victory.” And his second option; “though Antiochus did not enter on his impieties till the following year; and, reckoning from the sixth day of the sixth month in that year, to the twenty fifth day of Cisleu in the year 148, when the Jews offered the daily sacrifice on the new altar of burnt offerings, were just six years, three months, and eighteen days: and so it follows,” As I said there is nothing about the One World Government?
I have already talked about the 70 weeks of Daniel chapter 9. And seeing as the historical view sees the whole seventy weeks as now completed, there is no future fulfilment left in that prophecy. Also from the historical view the antichrist does not appear during those 70 weeks. Therefore Daniel 9 has nothing to do with the idea of a “One World Government”!

Firstly, I am not trying to do a critique on Daniel. The Historical view of Daniel chapters 10 to 12 have little or no indication of a ‘One World Government’ headed by the antichrist. It does have the famous passage in, Dan 11:31 “abomination of desolation” quoted by Jesus in Mat 24:15 and Mar 13:14. And it does speak of the antichrist in verses 36 – 40; ‘the king who will do according to his will’. Some of this section speak of the persecution of the ‘Saint of the Most High’ during the pagan Roman Empire. Then towards the end we see the final fall of the Turkish Empire  to the British in 1917. I will only be speaking on those verses. So you could skip this section altogether if you wish. As we’ve seen in the Futurist view of Daniel chapter 10, Gabriel greats him with; Dan 10:14 “Now I have come to make you understand what shall happen to your people in the latterH319 days. For the vision is yet for many days.” The key thing Gabriel said was, “…what shall happen to your people”. So the prophecy is pertaining to the region of the world surrounding Israel, i.e. the history of the Near East. Hence the terms ‘king of the North and king of the South’ are referring to the kingdoms or regions North and South of the land of Israel. Also the kingdoms change hands over the centuries, but they are still North or South of Israel.

I read a gem of wisdom in one of the commentators, and I wish I copied and saved it. It was along these lines, ‘prophecy is meant to both hide and to reveal Gods plans, and as we come closer to the time of fulfilment, more of the prophecy becomes revealed’. And you notice this when you study the old historicists scholars, who wrote from say the 1600’s to the early 1800’s. Some of them had an accurate interpretation up to a certain point in the prophecy. But the rest of the prophecy, which was WELL into the future for them, they just seemed to ‘flounder’. Others who have written within the past hundred years have more history to help them with the prophetic Jig-Saw. That’s why I like A. J. Ferris who wrote between 1933-56; he has much more unfolded history, which helps prove the fulfilment of prophecy almost up to present day. But Ferris doesn’t quite get it all right. I have condensed one of his booklets, entitled [Ref CN by AJFDn11 - “From My Copy FROM The Second Advent - How: When: Where? Daniel Chapter 11 -  By A.J.Ferris”]. So I would like to give you a very brief view of Daniel using Ferris and other historical believers just to show the general consensus of them all.

What are the “LatterH319 Days” that Gabriel speaks of? This is often confused with the idea this refers to a short period of time, just before Christ appears. Not so! Let’s look at Strong’s definition, H319 “From H310; the last or end, hence the future; also posterity: - etc..” Then refer Oxford, ‘Posterity meaning; all future generations of people’. Also you have this other passage in Daniel 2:28 “But there is a God ..who ..makes known ..what shall be in the latter days”. Daniel then goes on to speak of the Great statue with, ‘head of gold, down to feet of iron-clay etc.’ Then he interprets it as a period of history extending from Nebuchadnezzar's life to some 2600 years later, and he refers to all that long period of history as ‘the latter days’. Again we have the same issue with Peter on the day of Pentecost; he is speaking of the glorious out poring of the Holy Spirit. In Act 2:17, and he quotes Joe 2:28  “And it shall be in the last days, says God, I will pour out of My Spirit upon all flesh”. And since the day of Pentecost through to our present day the Holy Spirit is still being “poured out upon all flesh”! So the phrase, “the latter or last days”, is speaking of the time from Daniel to our present day!

Gabriel finally punctuates his delivery with, ‘For the vision is yet for many days.’ The word many is a grammatical add in, it’s in italics, meaning it was not in the original. It’s not in every translation, but it is in the LXX, The Brenton Septuagint. So the meaning seems to verify the term ‘Latter Days’, meaning that the vision will cover a long period of history, many days. And when we analyse the characters portrayed in the prophecy, that all makes sense! The prophecy starts in Dan 11:2, from four kings of Persia before Alexander The Great, about pre 425BC. Then it continues through history to about 1917 and the fall of the Ottoman Turkish Empire, the latest King of the North. So it sure is a very long period of history.

We now know what characters to look for, so let’s skim through history. You can also [Ref ACCH, look at around the ‘300BC’ mark], you will find on that chart, Alexander in a red narrow vertical band. Branching to the right of him are the two key players. “Egypt under the 13 Ptolemies”, we know them as the start of the King of the South. Then “Syria under the Saleucidae”, we know them as the start of the King of the North. [Ref CN AJFDn11 page 57] “Verses 6 to 30 then foretold the history of those two powers from 323 B.C. to 62 B.C., calling them by the names of the “King of the North” and the “King of the South”. Bishop Newton, the well-known writer on prophecy, stated that Daniel's forecast of the careers of those kings of Syria and Egypt was really more perfect than any history”. You can verify this with these commentaries, they all agree up to chapter 30 matching this sequence of history. [Ref CN by Albert Barnes, John Gill, John Wesley, Adam Clarke, Joseph Benson, Keil & Delitzsch, Jamieson-Fausset-Brown, TSK Cross References and Pulpit]. I never knew much about Antiochus and the Greek period of history and the affect on Judah, until I have just recently read these commentaries. It would be worth your while to read through a few of them. The reason is as follows.

We now get to Dan 11:31 “And forces will stand from him, and they will profane the sanctuary, the fortress, and shall remove the daily sacrifice, and they shall place the desolating abomination.” This passage is one of the issues I wanted to learn about. It would appear that this “desolating abomination”, has happened three times in history. The following commentary by Barnes is the first occasion in 167BC. The second is when Jesus referred to this verse, and He said it was still future, and many believed He was speaking of 70AD. Also many don’t! But if you check Matt 24:2-15; then Mark 13:2-14, they both use the phrase, “abomination of desolation”. But Luke 21:6-20 is telling the exact same story about what Jesus told them, and he uses the phrase, “when you see Jerusalem compassed with armies”. So Luke is telling us that, "the abomination of desolation", IS referring to 70AD! The third fulfilment was in 638AD. [Ref CN AJFDn11 bottom of page 72] “Mohammed …In 629, he led his army from Mecca to conquer Arabia In 637, his successor the Caliph Omar attacked Palestine, and early in 638 entered Jerusalem. Gibbon tells us in his history Vol. 9, p. 473, how at that time the Christian patriarch of Jerusalem testified that the abomination of desolation (of DAN. 12-II) is in the holy place." In 643, on the very site of Solomon’s Temple, Omar commenced building a Mosque which became a physical symbol of the Mohammedan desolation of Eastern Christendom.” And if you still insist on believing that some antichrist is yet to appear, then he will complete a forth “desolating abomination”?
 
Now this quote from Barnes, it is really worth reading please! [Ref CN by Albert Barnes on Daniel 11:31] “When it is said that they would “pollute the sanctuary of strength,” the reference is to what was done by Apollonius, at the command of Antiochus, to profane the temple, and to put an end to the sacrifices and worship there. Compare 1 Macc. 1:29, 37-49; Jos. “Ant.” b. xii. ch. v. Section 4. The account in the book of Maccabees is as follows:” Thus they shed innocent blood on every side of the sanctuary and defiled it, insomuch that the inhabitants of Jerusalem fled because of them, wherefore the city was made a habitation of strangers, and became strange to those who were born in her, and her own children left her. Her sanctuary was laid waste like a wilderness, and her feasts were turned into mourning, her sabbaths into reproach, her honor into contempt. As had been her glory, so was her dishonor increased, and her excellency was turned into mourning. Moreover, king Antiochus wrote to his whole kingdom that all should be one people, and every one should leave his laws; so all the pagan agreed, according to the commandment of the king.
 
Yea, many Israelites consented to his religion, and sacrificed unto idols, and profaned the Sabbath. For the king had sent letters by messengers unto Jerusalem and the cities of Judah, that they should follow the strange laws of the land, and forbid burnt-offerings, and sacrifices, and drink-offerings, in the temple; and that they should profane the sabbaths and festival days, and pollute the sanctuary and holy people; set up altars, and groves, and chapels of idols, and sacrifice swine’s flesh and unclean beasts; that they should also leave their children uncircumcised, and make their souls abominable with all manner of uncleanness and profanation, to the end they might forget the law, and change all the ordinances.”And shall take away the daily sacrifice - That is, shall forbid it, and so pollute the temple and the altar as to prevent its being offered. See the quotation above. This occurred in the month of June, 167 b.c. See Jahn, “Heb. Commonwealth,” p. 267.”
 
Consider: if Daniel 11 verse 31 has double or triple fulfilment, then we also know it refers to 70AD. If so then verses 31 to 35 refer to the period of persecution of the Christian martyrs under pagan Roman. Following this we know that as of about 538AD the pope came to power and ruled supreme until 1798. The following verses fit the period from 538 to 1798 quite adequately and they speak of the blasphemous boastings of the pope. You can go to the commentary notes by some of those above. [Ref CN on Dan 11:36 by AJFDn11, Albert Barnes, John Gill and Adam Clarke]. Dan 11:36 “And the king shall ..exalt himself above every god, and shall speak marvellous things against the God of gods, and shall prosper till the indignation be accomplished.” Overlapping with this period, in the Near East, we have the rise of the Saracen Empire, which is the re-emergence of the ‘King of the South’, and the First Crusade starting in 1096. This is followed by the rise of the Ottoman Turkish Empire, which is the re-emergence of the ‘King of the North’. The person referred to as him is referring to the “the king” of verse 36, which is the pope! Dan 11:40 “And at the time of the end shall the king of the South push at him: and the king of the north shall come against him like a whirlwind, with chariots, and with horsemen, and with many ships; and he shall enter into the countries, and shall overflow and pass over.” Which brings us to the fall of Constantinople in 1453.
 
Verses 41 to 45 now speak of the exploits and down fall of the Ottoman Turkish Empire, the ‘King of the North’ also referred to in these verses as he. Turkey eventually found herself embroiled in ongoing conflict with Russia, which is described as “out of the east and out of the north”. As there was no word for North-East in Hebrew, that was the term Daniel used.

[Ref CN by AJFDn11 middle of page 65] Dan 11:44 “But news out of the east and out of the north shall trouble him. Then he will go out with great fury to destroy, and to devote many to destruction. :45 And he shall plant his palace tents between the seas in the glorious holy mountain. Yet he shall come to his end, and none shall help him”.  [Ref CN by AJFDn11 middle of page 66] Verse 45 he (Turkey) “shall plant his palace tents, (military head quarters), between the seas in the glorious holy mountain.” That has to be speaking of Jerusalem. You can check WWI military history, the Turkish army was based in Jerusalem and in 1917 the Turks were driven out of the Holy Land. [Ref CN by John Gill, Preacher's Homiletical and Adam Clarke]. Then with the Balfour Declaration in 1917, after which the Jews started to pour into Israel, wave after wave for decades and still are. Ferris gives you an excellent assessment, from those verses of the Turkish downfall.
 
So as I said at the start of this, from the historical point of view, Daniel 11 has nothing to do with a future ‘One World Government’ theory! But the Historical Interpretation of the bible does give you an interesting insight into history.
 
The Time of the End Daniel 12
Firstly remember we are looking for anything in this chapter that may refers to a ‘One World Government’. And again we can’t find any indication of it here. So we can skim through this chapter; and it speaks of the battle of Armageddon, the end of the age, the first resurrection and the second resurrection; then some interesting numbers. Let’s check the first few verses. Dan 12:1 “And at that time Michael shall stand up, the great ruler who stands for the sons of your people. And there shall be a time of trouble, such as never was since there was a nation; until that time. And at that time your people shall be delivered, every one that shall be found written in the book.” What is meant by, ‘At that time’? Well Gabriel is still talking about the historical events to come and he reaches the events describing the Fall of Turkey around 1917. So logically he means a point in time that is very close to our present day. And what’s going to happen then? Michael the great ruler of our people shall stand up for us. Now some scholars suggest Michael is Christ. But that can't be so because Michael does have a specific role in the army of God. He is ‘nicknamed’, ‘The War Angel’. Ref. Rev 12:7 “And there was war in Heaven. Michael and his angels warring against the dragon…” also you can refer to my talk entitled, Who is Jesus - Is He Michael Archangel? So when the prophecy is ready to roll, Christ will call out with the shout of the archangel, and Michael will be at the head of the army of God’s myriads of angels’ ready to carry out the commands of Christ. And thank God we haven’t reached “at that time” as yet.
 
The next thing is there will be, ‘a time of trouble, such as never was since there was a nation; until that time.’ We have a similar expression in Mat 24:21 Jesus said: - “for then shall be great tribulation, such as has not been since the beginning of the world to this time; no, nor ever shall be.” I believe these passages, Dan 12:1 and Mat 24:21, are talking about two different events. In Matthew 24 Jesus is speaking of a ‘great tribulation’ as in 70AD. In Daniel it is referring to ‘a time of trouble’, which I believe is Armageddon. And I believe the key is in understanding the words, ‘until that time’. Take for example the siege of 70AD, up until that time Israel had never experienced anything like it. As we go further along in history we come to more great horrendous world event. Till right near the end of the latter days, we have had “The Great War”, the war to end all wars! And it was the worst war, until that time! Then only 21 years later we get really clever and had another war. And WWII was a far worse war, until that time! So what is Armageddon all about, well read Ezekiel chapters 38 and 39. It will be a fast war, with airborne equipment and troops by the millions, with parachutes and aircraft blotting out the sun. And it will be the worse war, until that time! And we know who wins that war! I’ve read the end of the book! And as I said, none of this indicates anything like, “Ten Kings’ or a One World Government”??
 
Then we have the first and second resurrections described in one sentence? Dan 12:2 “And many of those who sleep in the dust of the earth shall awake, some to everlasting life, and some to shame and everlasting contempt.” Which is quite strange because when we read Revelation 20:4 “..And I saw the souls of those who had been beheaded ..who had not worshiped the beast ..nor had ..his mark ..And they lived and reigned with Christ a thousand years. :5 But the rest of the dead did not live again until the thousand years were finished. This is the first resurrection.” So there is a gap of 1000 years between the two resurrections. Gabriel then continues with the rewards for the righteous. Dan 12:3 “And those who are wise shall shine as the brightness of the sky; and those who turn many to righteousness shall shine as the stars forever and ever.” (Please Lord I want to be amongst that lot). Then Gabriel gives Daniel the wind up, something like, ‘your job is done Daniel, seal the book and put it away’. Dan 12:4 “But you, O Daniel, shut up the words and seal the book, even to the time of the end. Many shall run to and fro, and knowledge shall be increased.” 
 
From this point onward Daniel hears some interesting numbers. Which we don’t need to go into in this talk, because it has nothing to do with the One World Government. I will refer you to A. J. Ferris’s work below. Dan 12:7 “..for a time, times, and a half. ..:10  none of the wicked shall understand, but the wise shall understand. :11 ..from the time that the daily sacrifice shall be taken away, ..a thousand two hundred and ninety days shall occur. :12 Blessed is he who ..comes to the thousand three hundred and thirty-five days. :13  But you go on to the end, for you shall rest and stand in your lot at the end of the days.” A. J. Ferris has a lengthy in-depth coverage of these numbers. I think he explains them quite well. [Ref CN AJFDn11 page 69-72], ‘find this heading’, “(6) Daniel's Time-periods of the Mohammedan Desolation..”, starting from his page 69. I believe his interpretation of the prophetic days is remarkable. Based on the day-for-a-year he shows us the fulfilment of the 3½ times, i.e. 1260 days, the 1290 days, the 1335 days and the 2520 days. He also incorporates the Mohammedan lunar calendar using those unique numbers. He gives you far more than I can fit into this paper without adding another 10 pages! It is well worth going to that brief that I produce of Ferris’s work.
 
Chart Showing The 1260, 1290 and 1335 Days: Dan 12
Below is a chart taken FROM The Second Advent - How: When: Where? Daniel Chapter 11 -  By A.J.Ferris. Showing the amazing fulfilments of the numbers 1260, 1290 and 1335 days, by using the lunar calendar. Refer below à[Slide#9].


Also Meyer compared to Ferris, gives a relatively concise explanation. [Ref CN by F.B. Meyer on Daniel 12:1-13] “RESURRECTION AND JUDGMENT, Michael was the guardian spirit of the Jewish people. When the time of trouble has reached its climax, whether in national or individual life, help is near. The hope of resurrection, of the life beyond the darkness of their times, animated the hearts of the Chosen People. In the same way the Apostle Paul refers to it, 1Co 15:58. The national resurrection of Israel is without doubt included but the resurrection at the last, when that of the just shall precede that of the unjust by the millennium, is clearly the topic of these wonderful words. Daniel’s prophecies were to be sealed, because their entire fulfillment was not to take place for many days. Three and a half probably stands for three and a half prophetic years, which, on the year-day system, gives 1260 days or years, and is therefore equivalent to the forty-two months of Rev 11:2; Rev 13:5. This is the time of the world-power, half the perfect number seven. The supremacy of the Gentile kingdoms is 2,500 years, of which the latter half has nearly expired, and the Chosen People will not much longer be scattered. It is an interesting fact that, calculated on the lunar measure, these concluding dates have-according to the calculations of the late Dr. Grattan Guinness-just expired. Let us go our way, watch and pray, and at last stand in our lot.”
 
And as I said Daniel chapter 12 has nothing to do with a ‘One World Government’! Also if the prophecy of Dan 11 is as A. J. Ferris and F.B. Meyer have both said, has come into completion; and Dan 12 is speaking of Armageddon then where are we in God’s time line? The only thing I can conclude is based on the common phrase of these days: - “We are a microwave generation and God prefers to do a sloooow cook!” So the prophecy of Daniel 11 seems to have come to its end by about the 1940’s. So from then in Gods’ timing there could still be another mere 100 or 150 years before we see the start of Armageddon. Therefore it could dawn as early as 2040 to 2090. But I still believe that the trigger for Armageddon will be the demand for oil. My father was a member of The Australia Institute Of Engineers. And in about the late 1970’s, he went to a lecture and the guest speaker said this. “The world knows that the USSR oil fields have only 20 years of oil reserves left!”  I asked dad about that some years later in about the 1990’s, in relation to what could trigger Armageddon. He explained that during those 20 years, in the same way as the Yanks have done, the Russians have discovered more oil fields, and that could reduce their urgency for oil in the short term. But we know that the world is running out of oil, all this push for “Green Energy” is not just for a yuppie presentation. So we sit and watch the fuel tank slowly run dry, then see what happens!

You can see now that God has used Jacob, (Israel), to act as His ‘battle-axe’ through history to bring down or ‘topple’ unrighteous governments and ultimately clean up the world. We are only human and we don’t always get it right! Also there was no mention of any thing suggesting a One World Government in any of these chapters. But in the next talk OWG9 HV - The Revelation, Heads, Horns and Crowns, you will be happy to know we will be back into it all again.
 
Hope you found that interesting and that I have explained everything well enough. If you have any comments by all means let me know your thoughts in the comments!
