              Daniel has a clear description of the Antichrist and how long he will be empowered. It states for a time, times
              and half a time, which is 1260 days after he has received authority from God. It occurred four days prior to the
              desolation of the Temple. Israel will be protected from the presence of the serpent, the devil, Satan for the same
              length of time as the Antichrist speaks out against God.

                   Daniel 7:25-26 “He will speak out against the Most High and wear down the saints of the Highest
                   One, and he will intend to make alterations in times and in law; and they will be given into his
                   hand for a time, times, and half a time.”

               26   “But the court will sit for judgment, and his dominion will be taken away, annihilated and
                                      85
                   destroyed forever.”
              October 2394: we have arrived at the timeframe of the Fourth Trumpet Judgment, which we have determined to
              be the eclipse of Uranus, Saturn and the moon.  Both the day and the night have radiant light for two-thirds of
              the daytime and nighttime. This is a time of purification and refinement during the End Times.

              Many Bible scholars don’t understand the significance of the fourth judgment. Daniel, Malachi, and Ezekiel tell
              us that this is a time where many will be purged and refined. It is a time when one-third of Israel will be refined
              during the Tribulation and many made pure. It is also a time where those who have insight will lead many to
              righteousness as we will see shortly.


              Daniel 11:35 “Some of those who have insight will fall, in order to refine, purge and make them pure
              until the end time; because it is still to come at the appointed time.”
                                                                                86
              The word of the Lord to Israel through Malachi describes the day of His coming - He is like a refiner’s fire.


              Malachi 3:1-3 “Behold, I am going to send My messenger, and he will clear the way before Me. And the
              Lord, whom you seek, will suddenly come to His temple; and the messenger of the covenant, in whom
              you delight, behold, He is coming,” says the LORD of hosts. “But who can endure the day of His
              coming? And who can stand when He appears? For, He is like a refiner’s fire and like fullers’ soap. “He
                                                      87
              will sit as a smelter and purifier of silver,”
              It appears that all those who have insight and understanding will lead many to righteousness.

              Daniel 12:3 “Those who have insight will shine brightly like the brightness of the expanse of heaven,
              and those who lead the many to righteousness, like the stars forever and ever.”  86
