Circular Letter March/April 1994

Special greetings to all of you world-wide in the precious name of our Lord Jesus Christ with the following Scripture reading:

“Go thy way, Daniel; for the words are closed up and sealed till the time of the end” (Dan. 12: 9).

All the prophets of the Old Testament including Daniel went into glory without experiencing the things they proclaimed, revealed to them by the Holy Spirit. Also Paul and all the apostles were taken to be with the Lord after they showed forth the part of prophetical Scripture which came to pass in their day. The predictions revealed to the prophet Daniel concern Israel, especially in the latter days. They were to be shut up and sealed till the end time. We find no record of Paul or any of the other apostles making reference to the prophet Daniel. They only referred to the prophetical passages which were relevant to the events coming to pass in their time according to the plan of salvation.

Our Lord once referred to the prophet Daniel advising the believers living in Judæa about the terrible event coming to pass in their day. Thus hath the Lord spoken, “And when ye shall see Jerusalem compassed with armies, then know that its desolation is near.

Then let them who are in Judæa flee to the mountains; and let them who are in the midst of it depart …” (Lk. 21: 20-21; Mt. 24: 15-22). It happened precisely as our Lord said. The true believers fled, when they saw the Roman army coming towards the city, and were spared, as historians record, when Jerusalem was destroyed in 70 A.D.

Today we have by God’s grace the fulness of revelation of all the words of the prophets and the apostles. We are very much privileged, because our eyes see and our ears hear things which others did not see and hear. The Lord would pronounce our eyes and ears blessed, as we see the whole plan of salvation perfectly laid out before us. It certainly is the most glorious time people on earth can experience with God.

The printing of the book “The Revelation of Jesus Christ” is delayed, as we need to serve God’s children in so many different languages. Therefore, I decided to publish a brief exposition about the 70 weeks of Daniel in this circular letter in advance. Possibly it might appear as chapter 23 in the book. I trust to be of service to all of you who give Scripture the pre-eminence and the right place as their absolute.
