This chart was developed on the principle that history repeats itself. The bible teaches that all the books of the bible meet and end in the Revelation, and that the stories and many prophecies have more meaning for us today than when they actually occurred.

Our chart is based on and developed with this principle in mind. In fact we read in the Spirit of Prophecy that the whole life of Christ will be re-enacted in the last days, His ministry, His betrayal, and His crucifixion. In other words, every facet of Christ’s life will be re-enacted in the lives of His people.

If Christ’s life is to be re-enacted, it would stand to reason that the 70th week of the 490 year prophecy of Daniel 9 would be repeated as well. That prophecy of Daniel 9:24 foretold exactly when the Messiah the Prince (Christ) would come to the Jewish nation and confirm the (New) Covenant with many for one week, …“…but in the middle of the week, He would cause sacrifice and oblation to cease.” So the chart depicts that prophecy finding its counterpart in the last days.

Just as Christ came to confirm the New Covenant with many in His day, God’s remnant will confirm the New Covenant with many in ours.

Question: At the beginning of Christ’s ministry he told His disciples to start where?

Answer: Matthew 10:6 says, “But go rather to the lost sheep of the house of Israel.” Ezekiel 9 tells us that judgment starts first at the house of God.

This judgment is represented during the first half of our week, then judgment will go to the world during the second half, thus the 70th week.

So basically the chart is representative of two weeks, the one during Christ's ministry and the other during ours. The two are superimposed upon each other.

The yellow line running horizontally, represents God's people (wheat) and the path of refinement that they are willing to subject themselves to. The black line below represents the wicked (tares) and the path to destruction they follow.

Our people are anxious to study the second half of the week, sunday laws, the abomination of desolation etc., but if they don't know what is happening during the first half of the week, the second becomes moot.
