984 - Les Feldick Bible Study - Lesson 3 Part 4 Book 82 - The Resurrection of the Just - 4

https://lesfeldickbiblestudy.com Through the Bible with Les Feldick LESSON 3 * PART 4 * BOOK 82 THE RESURRECTION OF THE JUST - 4 Daniel 12:13 Okay, good to have everybody back for our fourth program. And again, I just have to constantly thank our T.V. audience, as well as all of you in here, for supporting us. My, next month would make 19 years since we’ve been on T.V. That’s just unbelievable, isn’t it, Honey? We vowed up and down that it would never go more than six months. But we didn’t know what the Lord had in mind, did we? But anyway, we appreciate you all so much and love you with all our heart. All right, in this lesson we’re going to wind up our study on the Book of Daniel and the revelations of Daniel chapter 12. And I like to remind you that we are in Book 82, finishing it up today. That means we have now completed 984 half-hour programs. That’s a lot of talking, believe me. Anyway, Revelation chapter 20 is where I want to start. I want you to see one term back here before we go back to Daniel for a moment, and that is in verse 5. Revelation 20:5-6a “But the rest of the dead lived not again until the thousand years were finished. This is the first resurrection. 6. Blessed and holy is he who hath part in the first resurrection: on such the second death(That is the Lake of Fire, Hell.) shall have no power,…” Now then, there’s nothing to indicate that that’s going to be one immediate resurrection. But all three parts—I’m going to go back to my little field on the board. All these segments of resurrection: the firstfruits that we saw in the first half hour, then the main harvest that we saw in the next half hour, as well as the gleanings which are the Old Testament and the Tribulation saints (they make up the smaller percentage). That completes, then, the first resurrection. All right, we’re going to look at it again, briefly, and then we’re going to look at the resurrection of the lost—which, of course, won’t happen until after the thousand-year Kingdom-rule is finished. So, come back with me momentarily, again, so we can officially end our study in the Book of Daniel chapter 12. Again, this will be the last of the first resurrection. The firstfruits, then the Rapture of the Church, then the gleanings, and then we’ll go into the Kingdom. Then at the end of the Kingdom, they’ll have the resurrection of the lost. But all right, back to Daniel chapter 12 to finish it up in total now. In verse 10, again, where we started at one o’clock this afternoon: Daniel 12:10-11 “Many shall be purified, and made white, and tried; but the wicked shall do wickedly: and none of the wicked shall understand; but the wise shall understand. (And then here’s the timing.) 11. And from the time that the daily sacrifice shall be taken away, (Which we understand from Daniel, as well as from the Lord Jesus in Matthew 24, that’ll be in the mid-point of the seven years.) and the abomination that maketh desolate set up, there shall be twelve hundred and ninety days.” Which is an extra 30 days, but we also know there will be a total of an extra seventy-five days added. All right, now verse 12. Daniel 12:12-13 “Blessed is he who waiteth, and cometh to the thousand three hundred and thirty five days (Or 1,260 plus 75. Now He tells Daniel--) 13. But go thy way until the end be: for thou shalt rest, (In other words, he’s going to die physically, and his soul and spirit are in the presence of the Lord, just like all the rest of the believers of time gone by. What the Lord is really saying, is when these seventy-five days have finished, even though it goes into the Kingdom--) thou shall rest, and shalt stand in thy lot at the end of the (those seventy-five) days.” So, that’s where I time the resurrection of the Old Testament saints, as well as the Tribulation saints who will be martyred. They will be the gleanings and corners in the first resurrection. Now, let’s back up for a little bit to Daniel chapter 2, and see why I have no problem with these extra 75 days. Now, some people try to twist this all into something else. I’ve read more ideas that you can imagine. But I have no problem just leaving it the way the Scripture describes it, because of Daniel chapter 2 when Nebuchadnezzar saw the image of this huge human likeness; which, of course, was gold and silver and brass and iron and clay. It was a depiction of the coming Gentile empires. All right, let’s read over them quickly. I think we’ve got plenty of time. Verse 31 again: Daniel 2:31-33 “Thou, O king, sawest, and behold a great image. (the likeness of a man) This great image, whose brightness was excellent, (Another translation says frightening.) stood before thee; and the form thereof was (again) terrible (or frightening). 32. This image’s head was of fine gold, his breast and his arms of silver, his belly and his thighs of brass, 33. #LesFeldick #BibleStudy #Bible
