Except Those Days Be Shortened

By Dr. Max D. Younce

Matthew 24:22, “And except those days should be shortened, there should no flesh be saved: but for the elect's sake those days shall be shortened.”

Shortening Of The Days - Part One  |  Shortening Of The Days - Part Two

Notes

We do know that the Antichrist makes a covenant with Israel very soon after the Rapture. He assures them a perpetual peace to worship in their temple, offering the same sacrifices as they did under the old covenant. After 3 ½ years, the Antichrist breaks his covenant.

The Prophet Daniel gives three sets of figure which commence at the mid-point of the Tribulation Period: Daniel 8:14 (3 Years, 2 Months, 10 Days); Daniel 12:11 (3 Years, 2 Months); Daniel 12:12 (3 Years, 8 Months, 15 Days). The computation of these figures give the result that the Tribulation Period will be shortened by 4 months, and 20 days. Dr. Younce explains this in his message.

“And he shall confirm the covenant with many for one week: and in the midst of the week he shall cause the sacrifice and the oblation to cease, and for the overspreading of abominations he shall make it desolate, even until the consummation, and that determined shall be poured upon the desolate.” (Daniel 9:27)

The Abomination is when the Antichrist goes into the Jewish temple and declares himself to be God.

“Who opposeth and exalteth himself above all that is called God, or that is worshipped; so that he as God sitteth in the temple of God, shewing himself that he is God.” (2 Thessalonians 2:4)

He then seeks to exterminate all Jews as described in Matthew 24:15-22.
