The word is imminent.
-Removed-As far as you need be concerned, it was sealed for thousands of years.
When one thinks of the countdown / countup as an opening scroll, there still remains that portion yet to be realized.
In the interest of humanity, you couldn't have said that the Book of Daniel was unsealed prior to the day in which it was officially unsealed in public court.
Your respect for and understanding of the matter at hand is seriously lacking.
Originally posted by @edward-palamarYou are not making sense.
I have been shown eight windows for the Three Days of Darkness thus far, the ninth to come at the end of this third Liturgical year of the Judgment.
That leaves the final three days of the 2,300 day cleansing period as the tenth window; I don't foresee anything more beyond that.
Not to worry.
Originally posted by @secondsonThat is from chapter nine, repeated again in chapter twelve.
The exact day of Jesus' actual physical return to the earth won't be known until the occurrence of the "abomination that maketh desolate" spoken of by Daniel the prophet, which happens 3 1/2 years after the start of that seven year period, then I believe it will be 1260 days after that. But don't quote me on that.
So, for the church, Christ's return is imminent. Has been for the last 2000 years.
This makes the fulfillment of the prophecy event dependent.
Interposed in chapter ten, Daniel is told that he is going to be told about what would happen to his people in latter times, the specifics of chapter eleven.
But the basis for timing is established in chapter nine with Christ's being baptized as Prince and being slain as King across the final week of years.
I still see that final week of years as mankind's touch with eternity.
Of that particular "abomination that maketh desolate" however, I find it easiest to count the days remaining as the crime has already been committed.
The prophecy includes a maximum time frame, but also includes the fact that the particular abomination is directly associated with that time frame.
The judgment in the prophecy concerns decreed multiple desolations poured out as a result of multiple abominations.
I have been witness to that particular abomination, the one, to use an axiom, that broke the camel's back.
Unless the others involved speak about it, too, there is no other current connection with that particular abomination save through me, and they might not see it in the same light as I do.

Originally posted by @secondsonThen your logic is seriously flawed.
"If Jesus comes one time to suffer as He did for our sakes, sending His angel ahead of Him before so doing,.."
What angel was sent ahead of Jesus' first advent? Are you talking about Gabriel?
"...is Jesus not entitled to do the same when He returns in fulfillment of His saying, "so that where I am, so also you may be"?"
This second half of your sentence does not logically follow the first.
Let's work on that first.
Jesus, Himself, bore witness concerning His sending His angel first.
So your entire post is not built upon a firm foundation.

We are less than 104 days from the completion of the 2,300 day cleansing period of Daniel 8:14.

-Removed-The man is starting to sound like a false prophet. In 2016 he predicted that the 3 days of darkness was in November of that year. That clearly did not transpire. Now he is predicting it for December of this year. Come Jan 2019 he most likely will disappear into thin air, and reappear in a couple years to fool more gullible people.
