Steven Ben-Nun, who used to be called Steven Ben-DeNoon, of Israeli News Live; seems authoritative with all of his information and use of Bible verses, but I would steer clear of him, as he is teaching false prophecy fulfillment explanations.
Christians seem to blindly trust him because he’s ‘Jewish,’ but we have to compare what he teaches to the Word of God and the true historical fulfillment of prophecy.
In his Seven Seals of Revelation video on 04-11-20, he applies the seals of Revelation to the end times, which is the wrong perspective.
The seal judgments were against the pagan Roman Empire, as Satan had used the Emperors to try to wipe out Messiah’s assembly of saints. They have nothing to do with the end times.
This Revelation Fulfillment Summary study gives you the timeline of the fulfillment of the seals, trumpets, and bowls; most of which have already been fulfilled during the last 1,900 years.
In his The Two Witnesses: Jesus Untold Story of Who They Are video on 12-14-18, Steven Ben-DeNoon proclaims that the Two Witnesses of Revelation are Moses and Elijah.
That is not even close to the truth!
Messiah told us that the SCRIPTURES TESTIFY about Him. Messiah told us that His SAINTS would be His WITNESSES. The Two Witnesses are not just two men, but they are the Scriptures and the Saints, who testify the true Gospel, as opposed to Catholicism; and they testified against the antichrist beast Popes during their 1,260 year reign of power from 538-1798.
Read Revelation 11 – Two Witnesses
In his Shabbat LIVE: Who Really is the Antichrist? video on 06-08-18, Steven Ben-DeNoon debates the options of a supposed one-man antichrist.
The video description says ‘Vatican sends Cardinal to Bilderberg meeting and many still wonder where the Antichrist comes from tonight we examine these issues.’
The truth is that the office of the papacy, the Popes of Rome, fulfill Bible prophecy as the antichrist beast of Revelation. It’s not just one man, but an office, just like the King of England or the President of the United States; and it has been fulfilled by many popes since the 6th century.
Steven Ben-Denoon is misleading his YouTube subscribers with his false prophecy fulfillment explanation.
In his Jewish Man Reveals Identity of the Antichrist video, Steven Ben-DeNoon gives a false explanation of the fulfillment of Daniel 11.
He proclaimed, “It’s the first time that we are aware that the identity of what is know to be the antichrist, or for Jewish people the ‘prince that shall come in Daniel’s prophecy, that we can literally discover and know who he really is.”
Seriously?!? The Protestant Reformers and the great theologians of the 16th-20th centuries, who wrote whole Bible commentaries; all proclaimed that the office of the Papacy, the Popes of Rome, are the antichrist. All of them, not just Pope Francis!
He wrongly assigned the ‘people of the prince’ of Daniel 9 to a supposed end-times antichrist.
The ‘people of the prince’ of Daniel 9 was the Roman army of Prince Titus, who were used to desolate the temple, city and Jews; fulfilling the prophecy in Daniel 9. It is not about the end times!!! Read The People Of The Prince Of Daniel 9
He proclaimed, “Recently such a scripture from Daniel 11 was fulfilled and the world went right past it. This fulfillment revealed the identity of the Antichrist.”
When Messiah said “When ye therefore shall see the abomination of desolation, spoken of by Daniel the prophet, stand in the holy place, (whoso readeth, let him understand:“:, He was pointing back to Daniel 9, not Daniel 11, so the whole premise of this lesson is false!
The abomination of Desolation was the appearance of the Roman army in 66 A.D., which was the sign that the city, temple and Jews, were close to being destroyed. Read The Abomination Of Desolation
He signed off with “I’m Stephen Ben DeNoon, with Israeli News Live, your prophetic moment.”
You don’t get to proclaim that you’re not a prophet, when you sit there and provide explanations for prophecy fulfillment! That is disingenuous!
Daniel 11 is not about the end times!!! It gives the continuous historical narrative of events of the kingdoms of Medo-Persia, Greece and Antiochus Epiphanes, and then Rome.
Alexander the Great of Greece rose up and ruled with great dominion.
The Seleucids (kings of Syria, “the north”) and the Ptolemies (kings of Egypt, “the south”) had incessant wars.
Antiochus Epiphanes, leader of the Seleucids, the vile person, surrounded Jerusalem with his armies (the abomination of desolation) and killed 10’s of thousands of Jews. They defiled the sanctuary and caused the daily sacrifice to be taken away for 2,300 days (Daniel 8:14). His persecution of the Jews began in 171 B.C. and the temple was cleansed on December 25, 165 B.C., which is 2,300 days.
The Maccabean uprisings delivered the Jews in the reign of Antiochus, and faithfully served their people as rulers and priests for 130 years.
Roman King Herod exalted himself above all gods (leaders). To protect his kingdom, he decreed for the slaughter of the babes of Bethlehem, in an attempt to kill baby Jesus.
Caesar Augustus conquered many countries such as Egypt, and took power of their treasures.
The Jewish Maccabean Revolt was a conflict, lasting from 167 to 160 BC, between a Judean rebel group known as the Maccabees and the Seleucid Empire.
The Seleucid Empire was a Hellenistic state ruled by the Seleucid dynasty founded by Seleucus I Nicator following the division of the empire created by Alexander the Great.

So once again, the prophecy fulfillment explanations from Steven Ben-DeNoon are false, and misleading believers.
In his Are The Two Witnesses Here? video, which was posted on 08-23-15, Stephen gives a futuristic explanation of the Two Witnesses of Revelation 11.
The Two Witnesses are the Old and New Testament (the olive trees) which provided oil to the Church of Messiah during the church eras of Thyatira and Sardis (the two lampstands). They witnessed against the Popes of Rome during their 1,260 year reign of power from 538-1798 A.D.
The Roman Catholic Church worked so hard during the Dark Ages, at eliminating the saints and burning the Scriptures, that in 1514 A.D., the papal church pronounced them as dead.
And there was silence, with no opposition to Rome for 3 1/2 years. All the while Messiah was having Martin Luther, a Catholic Monk, read the Scriptures to measure what the Popes of Rome taught against the Scriptures (the rod, the rule). And he found that they are an apostate church, the Harlot church of Revelation 17.
Messiah’s message to the Church of Sardis was that they were dead… but then He told them to take action, to come alive again. He was proclaiming that they were dead spiritually. And they were after being persecuted so violently by the Popes of Rome.
And exactly 3 1/2 years after the witnesses were proclaimed as dead, Martin Luther posted his 95 Thesis on the door of the Church of Wittenburg, which sparked the Protestant Reformation, which brought the true Church back to life.
And this led to the Scriptures being translated and with the advent of the printing press, being spread around the world in books (the little book of Revelation 10). And the witnesses took back control of the European nations which the Popes had controlled.
Here is the Two Witnesses of Revelation 11 study which explain this in more detail.
So don’t listen to false teachers like Steven Ben DeNoon who don’t understand the fulfillment of prophecy, and thereby deceive you.
In his 70th Week Of Daniel Only Months Away! video which was published on Oct 23, 2013… Oops! Steven said “When they make a covenant, to create a two-state solution between Israel and Palestine, that’s where your seven year tribulation begins.”
The concept of a future 70th week of Daniel is a deception of the enemy.
The 70th week of Daniel was fulfilled on time, after the 69th week, from 27-34 A.D., when Messiah and His disciples preached the New Covenant to the Jews for seven years. They confirmed that He was the promised Messiah who ratified the covenant made with Abraham, with His blood as the Passover Lamb.

.
In his ‘Pope Francis US Visit Sets Prophetic Stage’ video, Steven says that the Revelations Chapter 6 Horse Riders are set in Motion!
His wife told him that the first horse, the white horse of Revelation, is now riding. He said that the antichrist Pope is switching the crown of Revelation 6:2 from America to Russia.
The white horse represents the conquering Roman Empire, from 96 – 180 A.D., as it was a time of its greatest expansion and their military conquests were celebrated by riding white horses in their victory parades. Cretan Roman Emperors Trajan, Hadrian, Antoninus Pius and Marcus Aurelius, each had a bow as their symbol. The crown represents the laurel wreathes of victory that were worn by the Caesars after their armies had won a military battle.
He says that Russia is the new military superpower of the Pope, but the word of God declares that it is Washington D.C., which will be the military power of the One World Government.
Revelation 16 describes a great earthquake, which symbolizes political upheaval, in this case the biggest one of all, the formation of the One World Government. The great city of Rome, representing the Jesuits of Rome, will be split three-ways. The religion part is already based in the city-state of Vatican City; the financial part is already based in the city-state of London; and the military part is already based in the city-state of Washington D.C.
He says that the Lord shows him that Russia, is the Red army, which will fulfill the red horse in the second seal of Revelation 6.
The Red horse represents a bloody time in the Roman Empire from 185-284 A.D., as it went into a phase of revolution and civil war for 90 years, during which there were 32 emperors and 27 contenders for the throne.
To his credit, he says the Pope is the antichrist, which is correct; but he is only pointing to the current Pope; not the office of the Papacy, which is the antichrist sea beast of Revelation 13.
He applies the fulfillment of the sea beast to the present time, not the past. He asks who is able to war with the beast?
The answer is that the sea beast reigned for 1,260 years, 538-1798 A.D., when the Popes of Rome ruled over the kings of the world, and nobody was able to make war with the Popes during this time.
He says that the Pope will blaspheme against God.
This has already been fulfilled during their 1,260 reign, when they proclaimed to be God and to forgive sins, which are the two items by which Messiah was accused of blasphemy.
He pointed to the future and said that the Antichrist would make war with the saints.
But again, that was already fulfilled in the past, when during the Dark Ages and Inquisition, they killed over 50 million saints.
He referenced Jonathan Cahn, another false prophecy teacher, and Sid Roth, a deceiver; both of which are futurists; neither of which point to the Jesuits of Rome as the reigning power, and the enemy of Messiah and His Church.
He projects all of the Revelation seals, trumpets and bowls to being fulfilled in the future.
The truth is that the riders of the horses in the seals of Revelation rode a long time ago, which lead to the decline and fall of the Roman Empire; from famine, pestilence and civil war. Read Revelation 6 – 7 Seals Overview

U should be punished according to the Torah for lashom hara. And punished by the secular court and law for public trying to fuck with this dude’s life. U should die.
What does the Torah say about cursing Lavi? What does it say about applying unrighteous judgment? The sad part is that you’re misled by his false teaching about prophecy fulfillment, so you’re liable for false accusations.
I heard Him said “our prophetic segment” not as this article saith “He signed off with “I’m Stephen Ben DeNoon, with Israeli News Live, your prophetic moment.””
so who is the liar now? And yes i believe in THAT harlot as he said for i too study the Bible more intently on the revelation book where it kinda always throw me to some part of the back such as in OT. and sometimes in NT. well it surprise me once but soon i figured it out (holy spirit) when i read about the “spirit of prophesy” that is Jesus Christ. it made all sense of course all of this book is prophesied already and if you read the Revelation it is indeed there. kinda pointing you to a time or era on which to come. and idk but the revelation book is only 22chapter if i remember correctly. and it seems we are about to close that book in fact in heaven it is already close. just our time here on earth is still running to that phase. It make all sense God’s word is a prophesy.
and no matter how much negative you put on such as this website surely you know that the prince of this world Has already been Judge. but well maybe you are part of this prophesy for all we know. it all really adds up.
You’re missing the point Culgan. He is giving prophecy fulfillment explanations that are wrong, so he is a false prophecy teacher. It doesn’t matter what he calls himself. It doesn’t matter if he says that he’s not a prophecy teacher. He is giving explanations about the fulfillment of prophecy which are wrong.

Dan, you found this page and have been given the opportunity to learn the truth about the fulfillment of Bible prophecy. The question is, are you searching for the truth? Or just to defend your current set of beliefs?
“You don’t get to proclaim that you’re not a prophet, when you sit there are provide explanations for prophecy fulfillment! That is disinguinous!”
I am a bit confused. Isn’t this the premise of your article and the whole website, to explain prophecy?
Further, you fail to explain why we should apply the message of Messiah to Sardis some 1500 years later.
What’s more, the true body of Yehoshua hadn’t gone anywhere. They were simply living as the Messiah commanded, going to teach. They lived and walked the life of Yehoshua, as the early disciples did. They didn’t waste their money building cathedrals and churchs which Yehoshua NEVER commanded. Martin Luther was an opportunist who built the sequel to the Catholic church, with all her buildings, trappings, etc. Look around at these places today that we call churches? All the money invested when we could solve world hunger in annual offerings alone?
I was going to tell you about all Luther’s nasty vitriol against the Jewish people to show you why he isn’t the best source to use, but I see you have a page dedicated to that very topic and agree with all his hatred against the Jewish people.
So instead I leave you with Romans 11:
v. 7 What then? Israel hath not obtained that which he seeketh for; but the election hath obtained it, and the rest were blinded.
v. 8 (According as it is written, God hath given them the spirit of slumber, eyes that they should not see, and ears that they should not hear;) unto this day.
v. 11 I say then, Have they stumbled that they should fall? God forbid: but rather through their fall salvation is come unto the Gentiles, for to provoke them to jealousy.
17 And if some of the branches be broken off, and thou, being a wild olive tree, wert grafted in among them, and with them partakest of the root and fatness of the olive tree;18 Boast not against the branches. But if thou boast, thou bearest not the root, but the root thee.19 Thou wilt say then, The branches were broken off, that I might be grafted in. 20 Well; because of unbelief they were broken off, and thou standest by faith. BE NOT HIGHMINDED BUT FEAR:21 FOR IF GOD SPARED NOT THE NATURAL BRANCHES, TAKE HEED LEST HE SPARE NOT THEE.
The point of this website, and my other websites; is to prove what most people are teaching today, with their futurist prophecy fulfillment explanations, are false. I am a prophecy teacher, so it’s not disingenuous at all. Steven proclaims that’s he’s not a prophecy teacher, but he teaches false prophecy fulfillment explanations. That is disingenuous!
The message of the Church of Sardis was to the saints who were as dead, after the Dark Ages, after the Popes had banned and burned the Scriptures and persecuted the Saints, the Two Witnesses. They came alive when Luther posted His 95 Thesis, which sparked the Protestant Reformation, which led to millions of people being saved and coming out of the Harlot Roman Church; and led to the printing of English Bibles (the Little Book of Revelation 10) which were spread around the world.
The Church era of Sardis occurred from 1514 – 1798 A.D.
The meaning of the word “Sardis” is the “escaping one,” or those who “come out,” so it is an excellent symbol of the Church during the Reformation period, when Martin Luther and a number of other reformers protested against the false teaching, tyranny and claims of the Papal Church, and they heeded Messiah’s command and came out of her.

Was Luther perfect? No! Was He used of the Father? Yes!
Luther was a Catholic monk when he was given the Scriptures and told to measure what the Popes taught against the Scriptures. He was measuring the temple, as foretold in Revelation 11:1-2. The temple is not a futurist physical temple, it is the body of Messiah, which is made up of the saints.
He found out that the Roman Catholic Church is an apostate church, the harlot church of Revelation 17. He found out that they aren’t part of the true church, and that they are delegated to the outer court of Gentiles.
If you are truly seeking truth, then read the studies that I proved links to, which provide verse by verse explanations.
You are misled to think Protestants have come fully out of the harlot!!! They are one foot in!
Cathy, I agree with you. I am not a part of any church denomination because they are following the teachings of Rome. Here’s my website called “Come Out Of Her” http://comeoutofher.org
NO, actually it seems more like the Blog Author is biased towards religious Christianity, and is afraid of the fact that Steven is a Messianic Jew, who Uses REAL original scriptures of the Hebrew with Traditional, and Abstract translation and interpretation. The English Holy bible is full of errors, he works around these, he is simply open minded, and really better understands the “Annointed one” was in fact an advocate of Jewish law, but not traditions. Yes I said it, Steven believes in his father, and Advocates following his own “Annointed one(mashiach)”. The word steven brings in his Denoon Institute, and Israeli News Live is brought forth in Inspiration from the spirit, and comes from the Mostly Original Hebrew writings that made the bible. Simply it is so.
Actually Brad, I tell people to come out of the Babylonian Roman Catholic Church and Protestant Churches, as they follow the teachings of Rome; which is contrary to Scripture. http://comeoutofher.org
I read from The Scriptures and the Aramaic-English New Testament.
And the studies prove that what Steven Ben-Denoon is teaching about prophecy fulfillment is wrong.

No offense intended David, but how do you go from 2 dead bodies (the witnesses ) lying in the street for 3 days and all the world sees them, to one of them being the old testament and the other the new testament. Seems like your a bit confused or you have an altered version of the Bible, with words taken away and or added by some false teacher
They are humans lying dead in the street. No room for misinterpretation. One could say that one of them will work based on OT and the other NT, as in there ministries.
Well Joe, I suspect that you don’t even know who the antichrist beast is, so there’s no way to understand the proper context of the Two Witnesses.
When you understand that the office of the papacy, the Popes of Rome, who reigned in power over church and state for 1,260 years, from 538-1798 A.D; fulfill Bible prophecy as the antichrist beast, then you can see that the witnesses against them during their reign were the Scriptures and the Saints, both of which the Popes relentlessly sought to eliminate. http://revelationtimelinedecoded.com/the-antichrist-sea-beast-of-revelation-13-is-the-popes-of-the-roman-catholic-church/
Messiah said that His saints are His Witnesses. That’s called a clue.
Messiah said that the Scriptures testify about Him. That’s called a clue.
In 1514 A.D., the Popes had been so effective in wiping out the witnesses against them, that they deemed them as dead.
Read Messiah’s letter to the church of Sardis. He said that they were dead, but then commanded them to take action. So he was saying that they were effectively dead, not really dead.
3 1/2 years after the Popes pronounced the witnesses against them as dead, Martin Luther posted his 95 Thesis on the door of the Church of Wittenberg, which sparked the Protestant Reformation.
This caused millions of people to be saved and come out of the harlot Roman Church, and they witnessed against Rome again, thus the name Protestant, for they PROTEST, they WITNESS against the antichrist Popes of Rome.
Here is a list of their testimonies. http://revelationtimelinedecoded.com/historic-witnesses-against-the-antichrist-beast-the-popes-of-rome/
The Scriptures were translated into English and with the advent of the print press, the Little Book of Revelation 10, the printed Bible, was spread around the world; effectively witnessing against the antichrist beast Popes of Rome; as Revelation 13 and 17 clearly identify them. http://revelationtimelinedecoded.com/the-little-book-of-revelation-10/

It doesn’t take very long reading that you are the one with false doctrine
Well, sadly Christians have been programmed with the futuristic explanations of prophecy fulfillment, so the historical explanations would appear as false. I pray that you continue to search out truth, for Messiah said that even the very elect would be deceived.

Well Phil, if you understood prophecy fulfillment, then you would be agreeing with me. Sadly, people like Steven Ben-DeNoon mislead you and others, and proclaim false, futuristic prophecy fulfillment explanations.
What Steven teaches is contrary to the great theologians of the 16th-20th centuries, who taught the historical view of prophecy fulfillment; before the enemy caused the futuristic prophecy explanations to take hold in the church.
Messiah said that even the very elect would be deceived.
Here’s a list of my prophecy studies series, which provide verse by verse explanations:

Then what do you say about all that is happening in the world today. If you were aware you would see phrophecy unfolding literally as Revelations says.
Cathy, here’s a ‘Bible Prophecy Made Easy’ summary study, which shows what prophecies have already been fulfilled, where we are at on the Revelation fulfillment timeline, and what will happen next as we await Messiah’s return. http://revelationtimelinedecoded.com/bible-prophecy-made-easy/
We’ve listened to Steven and don’t agree with everything he teaches, however he brings out valuable information and insight as to what goes on behind the scenes in Israel and around the world. On Rev. 11, we believe will come to fruition sooner rather than later. Pay attention as powers that be divide not only Israel, but Jerusalem. vs. 2 is nothing less than an international force sent into the holy city to ‘keep the peace’, trampled under the feet of the gentiles 42 months. Coinciding two witnesses will be on earth, two men clothed in sackcloth, as when they are killed their dead bodies lie in the street of Jerusalem three days, vs. 8 & 11. Being clothed in sackcloth is a whole other topic, signifying mourning for great sin in Israel and upon the whole earth. Many believe them to be Elijah and Enoch as these two men did not taste death, but were taken by God. 2Kings 2:11, Genesis 5:24, Hebrews 11:5. See also Malachi 4:5-6 and Matthew 17:11. To understand this properly must comprehend the great love the LORD has for His chosen people and by extension the whole earth. This will be a time of testing or much tribulation upon the whole earth as never before. Matthew 24:21. All that Jesus, prophets, and apostles spoke concerning time of the end will be fulfilled. How many understand what is coming and prepare? Let us be as wise. Matthew 25, 2Thes. 2, Rev. 3:10, Matthew 24:29-31.
Steven Ben-DeNoon does provide some valuable information. I have never claimed that he doesn’t. But most of what he teaches about prophecy fulfillment is wrong.
And you are simply reinforcing why people should not listen to him, as Revelation 11 has already been fulfilled.
Catholic Monk already fulfilled Revelation 11:1-2, when He was given the Scriptures (the ruler) and told to measure what the Popes of Rome were proclaiming against the Scriptures. And he found out that the Roman church is a harlot church, a gentile church, and not part of the true church (which is called the temple of God). So he came out of the Roman Catholic Church and proclaimed the truth of the Scriptures, which ignited the Protestant Reformation. http://revelationtimelinedecoded.com/measuring-the-temple-of-revelation-11/
The Two Witnesses are the Scriptures and the Saints, who testified during the 1,260 year reign of the antichrist beast Popes of Rome, about the pure Gospel of salvation through Messiah’s atoning blood, not by works through the Catholic Church; and they testified that the Popes of Rome were the antichrist of Revelation.
Messiah told us that the Scriptures testify. Messiah told us that His saints would be His witnesses. The Greek word for witnesses is martus, which can mean a martyr, a record, a witness. Many of the saints who testified against the Popes of Rome paid for their witness with their blood.
http://revelationtimelinedecoded.com/the-two-witnesses-of-revelation-11/
The great tribulation of Matthew 24 is not talking about the end times! How do you put aside Messiah’s clear words that all of the things that he just described would be fulfilled IN THAT GENERATION?
The time of Jacob’s Trouble was fulfilled from 66-70 A.D., when the city of Jerusalem, the temple, and 1.1 million Jews were desolated, in and around Jerusalem. http://theolivetdiscourse.com/the-great-tribulation-of-matthew-24/
The Son of Perdition is the office of the papacy, the Popes of Rome, who pretend to be a part of the truth church (the temple of God), yet they speak blasphemy in proclaiming to be God, to be Jesus Christ in the flesh, to forgive sins and to provide salvation. http://revelationtimelinedecoded.com/the-son-of-perdition-of-2-thessalonians-2/
Is Steven Ben-DeNoon teaching you those truths? No! He is as I said, a false prophecy teacher! Is he doing it on purpose? Probably not. But it does not change the facts.
I pray that you read the studies that I posted, because if you don’t know it, you won’t be prepared for how the end times plays out; and you will be like the foolish virgins, without the oil of truth to light their way.
Rev. 11 fulfilled? Really? When was the holy city trampled under foot of gentiles for 42 months? When did the LORD give power to His two witnesses to shut the heavens, turn water to blood, and smite the earth with plagues? When did the beast ascend out of the bottomless pit to make war against them, overcome and kill them? When did their dead bodies lie in street of Jerusalem until Spirit of life from God entered them? When did a great earthquake shake Jerusalem causing a tenth of the city to fall killing seven thousand? Has Matthew 24:29-31 been fulfilled also in some other generation? No man taught me about the two witnesses. The LORD has been ministering in my life for over forty years, and no man can take it away. Luke 10:42.
I provided a link to the study that gives the verse by verse explanation of the Two Witnesses. Did you read it? If what you believe is a deception from the enemy, it matters not that you’ve believed it for forty years, it’s still a deception.
For proper context, the Little Book of Revelation 10 is the printed Bible; which came on the scene after the Dark Ages, when the Popes banned and burned the Scriptures, and only taught in Latin, so there was a famine for the Word of God. Then the Father had people translate the Scriptures into English and other languages, and with the advent of the printing press, the Word of God came alive again, and was spread around the word, testifying about true salvation, not the false Roman Catholicism. http://revelationtimelinedecoded.com/the-little-book-of-revelation-10/
For proper context, Revelation 11:1-2 were fulfilled by Catholic Monk, who was given the Scriptures (the rule) and told to measure what the Popes taught against the Scriptures, to see who is the true temple (the saints, the true church). He found that the Roman Church is the harlot church of Revelation 17, and a gentile church that is not part of the true Church. He responded by posting His 95 Thesis, which sparked the Protestant Reformation, which brought the church back to life; after being persecuted relentlessly by the Popes of Rome. http://revelationtimelinedecoded.com/measuring-the-temple-of-revelation-11/
And here is the Two Witnesses study. http://revelationtimelinedecoded.com/the-two-witnesses-of-revelation-11/
I pray that you will read the studies, to see what Scripture is proclaiming about the Two Witnesses.
Messiah told us that the Scriptures testify. The Greek word for testify is martureo, which means to be a witness, to give evidence, to bear record, to give testimony.
“You search the Scriptures, for in them you think you have eternal life; and these are they which testify of Me.” John 5:39
Messiah told us that His Church would be His witnesses. The Greek word for witnesses is martus, which can mean a martyr, a record, a witness. This is the same word that is used in Revelation 11:3 about the Two Witnesses, the saints, who were indeed martyred.
“But you shall receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you; and you shall be witnesses to Me in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the end of the earth.” Acts 1:8
Question David: What about not being able to buy or sell unless the mark is taken? Is that fulfilled in your opinion & if so please explain. Thanks!
Lynn, in the past, the antichrist beast Popes have dictated who could buy and sell, and they used their power to cut off the saints.
In the future there will probably be a worldwide economic collapse, which will prevent anyone from buying and selling. And the antichrist beast Pope may proclaim that they’ve been planning for this event (as they caused it) and that they have setup a One World financial system, which will allow people to be able to buy and sell again.
Those who revere (mark on the forehead) and obey (mark on the right hand, actions) the antichrist beast Pope of Rome, and join with him, will have the mark of the beast on them.
The office of the papacy fulfills Bible prophecy as the Son of Perdition and the antichrist beast.
Here is a summary study which shows how Prophecy Points To The Leader Of The Roman Beast http://revelationtimelinedecoded.com/prophecy-points-to-the-leader-of-the-roman-beast/
Dear child of GOD, as you fully know prophesy has a unmistakable duality. Or we wouldn’t have ezekial. 38 and 39. All of the bible is from our father and HIS wisdom is unsearchable. .please for me use discernment. .because most (future) prophesy has not happened. .us humans make the mistake of reading into HIS word what we think GOD is saying, I have been doing this research all of my adult life, there is so much change on this earth every day that it seems to be impossible to put the pieces together and we now have the internet to help slice and divide information. The spirit of God is the way that a human can discern the truth..I have done what you have and Steven Denoon…both of you are Gods children. You have a passion for the truth,may. Gods peace be with you
Lynn, there may be ‘duality’ in generic descriptions (famines, earthquakes, etc), but there is only one antichrist beast, the Pope of Rome. http://revelationtimelinedecoded.com/the-antichrist-sea-beast-of-revelation-13-is-the-popes-of-the-roman-catholic-church/
There is only one 70th week of Daniel, and it was fulfilled after the 69th week, from 27-34 A.D.; in which the ministry of Messiah occurred. So it is not a futuristic 7-year tribulation period. http://70thweekofdaniel.com
There is only one fulfillment of Messiah’s warnings in the Olivet Discourse, which culminated in the temple, city and Jews being desolated in 70 A.D.; in that generation, just like Messiah proclaimed. http://theolivetdiscourse.com/
There is only one fulfillment of the seals of Revelation, which caused the decline of the Roman Empire; from bloody civil wars (red), economic collapse (black) and death from famine and pestilence (pale).
There is only one fulfillment of the trumpet judgments of Revelation, which caused the fall of the Roman Empire; which removed the last Western Roman Emperor from power in 476 A.D., which led to the office of the papacy, the Popes of Rome, fulfilling prophecy as the Little Horn of Daniel, the Son of Perdition and the antichrist beast. http://revelationtimelinedecoded.com/revelation-fulfillment-timeline-summary/
So though Steven Ben-Denoon may be a nice guy and he may be genuine, many of his prophecy fulfillment explanations are wrong, so he is deceiving people.
I pray that you will search out the studies that I provided links to, because it would appear that you are believing the false narrative about how the end-times will play out. Get the oil of truth while you can.
Thank you, I will look to Daniel but ask our father for holy spirit guidance because as humans,I don’t want to fall into mankind’s categories again: pretrib,midrib, postrib, or uneducated, my love for our father in heaven is the only ultimate joy.if I am not at work I am reading and praying. Your thesis resounds of E.G.White. wonderful material. .as for your assumptions, no Im not futuristic, but and believe me,I hate that word..Revelation 12,my dear brother in Christ hasn’t happened as well as many other signs, my point not received in the love meant was to cut Steve some slack,we will all fall on a point or two,example: I love God because he loved me first…keep it simple! The old testament veils the new testament and the new testament reveals the old testament. .A little play on words will change the meaning of a sentence…thank you again in Christ’s love
Well Lynn, what I teach is what the great theologians taught during the 16th – 20th centuries. They taught the historical fulfillment of prophecy, before the futuristic and preteristic deceptions were created by the Jesuits of Rome, to deflect blame away from the antichrist Popes. What Steven Ben-Denoon teaches is futurism.
These are a few of my favorite theologians:
Albert Barnes’ Notes on the New and Old Testaments.
Adam Clarke’s Commentary on the Bible.
Commentary from the 1599 edition of the Geneva Bible.
Henry Grattan Guinness – Romanism And The Reformation.
John Gill’s Exposition of the Entire Bible.
Matthew Poole’s Commentary on the Holy Bible.
As for E.G. White and SDA’s, they teach the historical view of prophecy, so that is why the explanations on this website may seem familiar. I’ve never studied her writings, and SDA’s get quite a few prophecy fulfillment explanations wrong.
If Steven Ben-Denoon just got a few prophecy explanations wrong, we could cut him slack, as nobody knows everything. But the majority of what he teaches about Bible prophecy is wrong, and it ultimately comes from the enemy, who created these deceptions to deflect blame away from the antichrist Popes of Rome, and to deceive the end time saints.
Messiah will not cut false prophecy teachers any slack, because they are leaving the end times saints woefully unprepared.
Actually, Revelation 12 has been fulfilled. Revelation has four basic layers, which describe events that span from when it was written, until Messiah returns. http://revelationtimelinedecoded.com/the-revelation-timeline-is-a-layered-war-manual/
When the four layers are overlaid, you see the full view of the explanation.
Revelation 12-13 gives the narrative of the different phases of the Roman beast, the 4th and last beast that is described in Daniel 2 and 7. http://revelationtimelinedecoded.com/the-beast-kingdoms-of-daniel-2-and-daniel-7/
Revelation 12 describes the mighty Roman Empire, in which Satan was exalted in all of their pagan god worship. He used the Roman Empire to try to kill Messiah as a baby, to crucify Messiah, and then to try to wipe out the Early Church, killing 10 million saints. http://revelationtimelinedecoded.com/revelation-12-the-pagan-roman-empire-beast/
Revelation describes the rise of the Popes to power among the 10 civil kingdoms of the fallen Roman Empire, after the last Western Roman Emperor was removed from power in 476 A.D.
The Pope fulfilled prophecy as the Little Horn of Daniel 7, when he plucked out 3 of the kingdoms, when they would not bow down to his authority. http://revelationtimelinedecoded.com/the-little-horn-of-daniel-7/
The Pope fulfilled prophecy as the Son of Perdition, when the ‘restrainer’, the Roman Emperor was removed from power, and the Pope took authority of the leader of the church/state of Rome. And the Popes sit among the true church (the temple of God) and proclaim to be God, to be Jesus Christ, to forgive sins and to provide salvation. http://revelationtimelinedecoded.com/the-son-of-perdition-of-2-thessalonians-2/
The saints blood cried out for the Father to exact vengeance against those who persecuted them. And it was carried out, as the seal and trumpet judgments caused the decline and fall of the mighty Roman Empire.
So ultimately the saints prevailed over the mighty Roman Empire, as they overcame by the blood of the Lamb and the word of their testimony.
Here’s a Revelation summary study, which you can print out; which gives a summary of the fulfillment. It shows you what’s already been fulfilled (most of it); where we are at now on the fulfillment timeline (the 6th bowl); and what will happen next as we await Messiah’s return. http://revelationtimelinedecoded.com/revelation-fulfillment-timeline-summary/
I pray that you read the studies, because the deception is grand, as to deceive the very elect.
Blessings to you in your search for truth!
David
Thank you again, I apologize, this is the first time that I have ever discussed this with anyone on the inernet, I was just getting tired of the stone throwing, I am very old school and very ashamed of how Gods children act,please except my apology. .I know whom and what you believe, and agree,(but) there’s that word again…The only line drawn in the dirt was Christ, he was and is,and will be forever the same, as a single grain of sand in an oyster makes a pearl,,,,even I can bring a child to Christ even if I might believe in the wrong century of his coming..I have read even enoch, there is so much to read,but some food for thought, Satan taught the children of God how to read and write, Gods reply to that. ..was- you showed them useless knowledge. I guess that a photographic memory wasnt enough, peace to you, As Christ gives.
No worries Lynn. I understand what you’re saying. Trust me when I say that I would rather not expose people’s false prophecy teachings. But my role is to help the saints understand the fulfillment of prophecy, so that they are prepared for how the end times will play out, and for Messiah’s return.
People like Steven Ben-DeNoon are so gentle and sincere, that people tend to blindly trust what he says. And I don’t believe that he is misleading people on purpose.
Ultimately, all that matters is that people have a covenant relationship with the Father, through the Son.
But the truth needs to be proclaimed; and unfortunately, sometimes that means exposing false teachings.
Keep learning and growing in The Way! Contact me anytime with questions or insight on the studies that I provided links to, as the historical explanations are contrary to what most people teach these days, as the deception is grand.
David
Is this guy “steven DeNoon” a terrorist? He is one of the people my brother says is backing him in building a ministry. To me it sounds like a cult not a ministry.
I agree with the historicist view of Revelation.
God has shown us the entire course of history from the resurection until the return of Jesus.
I realised the Mid-East centred, futurtic view is wrong for 3 reasons:
1) Daniel does not mention any gap occurring between week 69 and week 70. Such essential information would not be left out.
1) It does not make sense to know that precisely 7 years after the signing of a peace treaty, Jesus will return. This is not “a thief in the night” event. This idea is dangerous, because we are weak and this view makes us think we can delay making changes in our lives until the event comes nearer.
3) Awating the “military battle” of Armagddeon as the precursor of Christ’s return actually causes Christians to be happy about the destruction and depravity that is occurring in the Middle East.
Thank you for sharing your insight Christine! Most people oppose me about this page, because they have been programmed with the false, futuristic explanations of prophecy fulfillment, which is what Steven Ben-DeNoon teaches. It’s great to see that you understand the fulfillment of the 70th week of Daniel.
Here’s a link to my Revelation Timelime Decoded summary study, which shows what part of Revelation has been fulfilled during the last 1,900 years (most of it); where we are at now on the fulfillment timeline (the 6th bowl); and what will happen next as we await Messiah’s return. http://revelationtimelinedecoded.com/revelation-fulfillment-timeline-summary/
You David are the one that is mistaken about a great many things and seem to have a axe to grind. Revelation was not fullfilled in the past, hence why it is called prophetic. You read your commentaries as it is God’s word.
It’s just looking through a glass darkly. Which I think you excel at.
Please ask for your money back on your education, it is obvious it has not paid off.
Here’s my Revelation Timeline Decoded website Mark, prove me wrong. http://revelationtimelinedecoded.com
And here is my 70th week of Daniel website, which proves that Messiah’s ministry occurred in the 70th week of Daniel; and that proclaiming that it is a futuristic 7-year tribulation period, denies the very time that Messiah died on the cross. Messiah accused the Jewish leaders of not knowing the time of His visitation, but sadly, most Christians today don’t know the time of His visitation; in the 70th week of Daniel. http://70thweekofdaniel.com
I suspect that you have not read my studies, which prove that what Steven Ben-DeNoon teaches is false. Rather, you are blindly trusting him and other prophecy teachers; and just offering up rude opinions.
Revelation was written almost 2,000 years ago, so it was prophetic (future-looking) when it was written.
Revelation 1:1 says, “The Revelation of Jesus Christ, which God gave Him to show His servants–things which must shortly take place.”
Ask yourself, what makes more sense?
That none of the Revelation prophecies would be fulfilled for 1,900+ years, and then all of them would be fulfilled during the final few years?
Or, that the Revelation prophecies would be fulfilled during the time from when they were written, until Messiah returns?
Doesn’t it make more sense that Revelation describes what Messiah’s saints would face during all of the years until Messiah returns?
Revelation describes the historical battle between the Satan-empowered leader of the Roman beast (Emperors, Popes, Jesuit Generals) against Messiah and His saints.
I pray that you seek the truth of prophecy fulfillment, for the exacting fulfillment of Revelation proves that the Elohim of the Bible is the One True Elohim. But the enemy has hidden the historical fulfillment, and pushed that witness aside.
