DESECRATION - ANTICHRIST TAKES THE THRONE
Stan Coffey
Daniel 8:1-14
Today we continue in the series, in lesson number five on DESECRATION. Let me just say if you read the book DESECRATION, and I trust most of you read it, I just want to refresh your memory. In the second half of that book he talks about the exodus of the tribulation saints, the saved Jews, those of Israel who are the faithful remnant, those who did not take the mark of the beast on their forehead or on their hand, making their exodus from Jerusalem and from Judea out into a wilderness place that God had prepared for them.

And so he is told, the Antichrist is told, "If you will let the people go. If you will let the people be airlifted out of Jerusalem and out of Judea, than God will withdraw this plague."
It reminds us of the Old Testament story of Moses and the plagues where Moses each time went to Pharaoh and he said, "Pharaoh, if you want this plague to go away then let the people go and God will lift the plague from Egypt."

Now, you remember in our studies many times we've talked about the ...
