Was Jesus Crucified on Friday? For centuries Christians have celebrated ‘Good Friday’ as the day Jesus died. No one disputed it; the early church agreed with it; the gospel stated it. Here is a statement from Justin Martyr about AD150.

“For He was crucified on the day before that of Saturn; and on the day after that of Saturn, which is the day of the Sun, having appeared to His apostles and disciples, He taught them these things, which we have submitted to you also for

Abominations of the blasphemous kind tend to repeat because they are the fruit of an antichrist spirit which is always with us.

A precursor occurred again in AD 66 and there is good reason to believe the abomination of desolation is about to appear one more ...

The purpose of this article is to offer a scriptural and credible alternative to the prevailing theories and we would do well to start by noticing how the Abomination of Desolation is 'telescoped' through more than one fulfillment. Therefore, when Bible commentators describe Antiochus Epiphenes and the sacrifice of swine on a Jewish altar as the 'abomination' (167 BC, Dan 11:31) they are quite right insofar as a precursor is concerned but it was not the final one. The latter part of the ...
