A most compelling Biblical Prophecy is found in Daniel, chapter 9, verse 25. Written 500 years before the birth of Jesus Christ (the oldest preserved copy dating 200 years before the birth of Christ), it foretells the very day Christ would enter Jerusalem. The prophecy states: 69 weeks of years (69 x 7 = 483 years) would pass from the decree to rebuild Jerusalem, until the coming of the Messiah. This is according to the Babylonian 360-day calendar, since Daniel was written in Babylon during the Jewish captivity after the fall of Jerusalem. Thus, 483 years x 360 days = 173,880 days. According to records found by Sir Henry Creswicke Rawlinson in the Shushan (Susa) Palace, and confirmed in Nehemiah 2:1, this decree was made on March 14th, 445 BC, by Artaxerxes Longimanus.

Taken from Tim's 2005 Messiah, History, and the Tribulation Period Prophecy Conference, these two presentations on two DVDs or three CDs will have you glued to the edge of your seat from start to finish. This material, which is derived from the corresponding volume in Tim's upcoming Messiah, History, and the Tribulation Period series of books, has changed the views of entire churches on the Tribulation Period and the timing of the coming rapture! It is revolutionary, and will leave you wondering how so many in the Church could have been so misled for so long by so-called "prophecy experts," "scholars," and "teachers!" Tim makes some startling and astonishing revelations; these presentations — the most powerful ever given to the Church on the rapture — will significantly affect your views on the subject of Jesus' return and its timing for the saints. Yes, Tim ... covers all the "rapture bases," to include the pretribulational, midtribulational, pre-wrath, and posttribulational views, before offering the true biblical view and timings. This is the meat of The Word, and you will come away equipped to carefully test everything you've heard from scripture. (You may find yourself listening to these two presentations several times over!) False "Christian" teachers and "Christian" prophets everywhere take heed: Tim is gunning for your lies, and his aim is lethal!

One example of Biblical Prophecy is found in the Book of Ezekiel. Chapter 26 of the Book of Ezekiel claims to have been written in 586 BC, the 11th year of the reign of King Zedekiah of Judah. On nine separate occasions throughout the chapter, the writer claims to have been inspired by God with statements such as "... says the Lord GOD." The text describes the fall of mainland Tyre to the armies of Nebuchadnezzar the following year. It further describes the events of Alexander the Great's siege against the island fortress of Tyre (a half mile off the coast of mainland Tyre) 253 years later. The chapter describes how the invaders would tear down the ruins of mainland Tyre and throw it into the sea.

Prophecy may be regarded as a direct utterance of the deity, taking a human being as mouthpiece, or the statement of one who seeks inspiration from the fountain of wisdom. In the biblical writings, Yahweh desired to communicate with human beings and chose certain persons as mouthpieces. Again individuals (often the same as those chosen by God) applied to the deity for inspiration in critical moments. Prophecy then may be the utterances of the deity(ies) through the instrument of an entranced shaman or seer, or the inspired utterance of a seer who later repeats what has been learned while in an altered state (hearing the word of the Lord).
