Does the Bible Say When the Final Seven Years will Start?

By Irvin Baxter

Question: Sheila from Michigan called to ask Irvin, “Does the Bible say when the Final Seven Years will start? If so, where?”

 

Answer: Yes, the Bible does mention when the Final Seven Years would start. It is mentioned in Daniel 9:27. The entire prophecy goes from verse 24 to verse 27. It’s called the Prophecy of Daniel’s 70 weeks. It’s not an easy prophecy to understand. We have a DVD in our UTB Series that addresses this prophecy. Verse27 talks about the Antichrist confirming the covenant (speaking of the Abrahamic covenant) with many Desolation and Jesus said when you see the Abomination of Desolation then will be great tribulation. The thing that starts the seven years is a peace agreement with Israel and the Palestinians.
