The Appointed Time of the End


Daniel 8:19, 25, 12  
19 And he said, “Look, I am making known to you what shall happen in the latter time of the indignation; for at the appointed time the end shall be.  25 “Through his cunning He shall cause deceit to prosper under his rule; and he shall exalt himself in his heart.  He shall destroy many in their prosperity.  He shall even rise against the Prince of princes; but he shall be broken without human means. 12 ... he cast truth down to the ground. He did all this and prospered.

The times in the end are mostly hidden, to be revealed as they unfold; yet there are indications and events so see what is happening before time ends.  Here truth is cast down as the evil one uses one to blaspheme God and attack His people. Lies and deception will be the government, and many will be no longer prosperous but cut down.  When he rises against Christ Himself though, he will be defeated.  In all this we cling to truth and know God is in absolute control.  Only those who do not know Him need fear.
