Two Basic Discoveries
1. The Bible consists of– 66 separate books– Penned by over 40 authors– Over a period of several thousand years
that are an integrated message system;
2. It can be demonstrated that the origin of this message is from outside of our dimensions of space and time.
The Central Theme
• The OT is an account of a Nation.• The NT is the account of a Man.• The Creator became a Man. His
appearance is the Central Event of all history.
• He died to purchase us and is alive now.• The most exalted privilege is to know
Him. That’s what the Bible is all about.

Are there hidden codes in the Bible?
It is the glory of God to conceal a thing:
but the honor of kings is to search out a matter.

And when he was come near, he beheld the city, and wept over it,
Saying, If thou hadst known, even thou, at least in this thy day, the things which belong unto thy peace! but now they are hid from thine eyes.
Luke 19:43,44a
For the days shall come upon thee, that thine enemies shall cast a trench about thee, and compass thee round, and keep thee in on every side, And shall lay thee even with the ground, and thy children within thee; and they shall not leave in thee one stone upon another...
Luke 19:44b
...because thou knewest not the time of thy visitation.
The IntervalAnd after threescore and two weeks shall Messiah be cut off, but not for himself: and the people of the prince that shall come
shall destroy the city and the sanctuary; and the end thereof shall be with a flood, and unto the end of the war desolations are

Daniel 10A Glimpse of the Dark Side
• Daniel fasts for 21 days• An Angel is sent,
– but is withstood for 21 days by “The Prince of the Kingdom of Persia”
– until assisted by “Michael, the Chief Prince”
• After giving Daniel the subsequent vision (Chapters 11 & 12) he will have to deal with
“The Prince of the Power of Greece”
Daniel 11 & 12
• A detailed profile of the subsequent kings or the Seleucid and Ptolemaic Dynasties confronting one another.
• Includes a detailed glimpse of the final World Ruler that will prevail until the end times.
(More on this will be dealt with separately later in this series.)

Our Challenge
We are being plunged into a period of time about which the Bible says more than about any other period in history
…including the time when Jesus walked the shores of Galilee and climbed the mountains of Judea.
The Ultimate Issue
• We are in possession of a message of extraterrestrial origin.
• It portrays us as objects of an unseen warfare.
• Our eternal destiny depends upon our relationship with the ultimate victor in this cosmic conflict.
• Where do you stand with respect to Him?
