The first seal was opened in the 1700s

I have written before of the 2300 year prophecy and its ramifications of bringing us to the 1700s as the beginning of earth changing things. I also have written that the first seal was opened sometime in the first century. This may be incorrect. I think the two periods correlate. It is very possible that the first seal was broken in the 1700s after the ending of the 2300 year prophecy. It would make sense. The heavens would be cleansed of all the satanic rabble and the cleansing of the earth could begin, which is the opening of the seven seals.

2300 prophetic years revisited

I decided to look at this prophecy a little closer and investigate why I feel the way I do about this prophecy.

The Millerite movement was heavily influenced by this prophecy which landed itself conveniently on the date of 1844 which apparently holds much in the way of motivation for Adventists around the world.

Being the contrary person I am, I had to check the numbers and make sure I could believe it. Well lets just say that the Millerite explanation left me hanging.

Number one: the counting of the days to reach 1844 is based off of a solar year model. The prophecy should be counted via prophetic years. So what we start with is the prophecy of 2300 days. If this translates to 2300 years of 360 days, then we need to multiply days x years to get to a total number of days of 828,000 days. Now divide 828,000 by 365.25 to get the actual number of years we should use to calculate which is 2267. Ok, the start date is 540bc because this is the date that Cyrus takes his place. Subtract 540 from 2267 and the date we land on is 1726. Now this date didn't really have any significance directly. So I had to take into consideration the greater meaning of the prophecy.

The 1700s were a period of significant enlightenment and an establishment of secular powers. One significant group that grew to back the creation of the USA were the Freemasons. This is a group that would not survive in a world of religious intolerance. Yet they promote religious freedom within their own constitution which was interestingly signed and approved of in 1723.

I have already suggested the tie in of this group with the description of the brick feet in Daniel's earlier prophecy of the immense image.

The rest of the prophecy goes on to discuss the constant feature and the Prince's sancturary being thrown down. During the period from 540bc to 1726ad, the Pharisee and Saducee systems began within Jerusalem, Jesus was killed, Jerusalem was destroyed by Rome, the Catholic system was created and gained political powers, secularism was born out of the rejection of such a relationship, religion began to play a side role while secularism grew, Freemasons become the first international non-religious group that organizes itself like a religion.

The secularization of religion is a Freemason ideal. Religion cannot be in connection with politics, yet it cannot be a significant influence among the people either. Freemasonry successfully puts their principles above the various religious thoughts that seperate fundamental relgious factions. Its a kind of humanism. It sounds good because it seems to focus on a natural human need. The only problem is that it completely dismembers the whole purpose of Jesus. It eliminates any thought that we may need spiritual help. It destroys the fact that sin reigns in a humans life and needs to be eliminated.

The 2300 year prophecy deals with the effects of this world becoming less and less conducive to the message of Christ. After 1726, the secular influence has only become stronger and taken on different forms. The religious freedom aspect of secularism is going to have to be accepted amongst devout people in order to be secularly accepted. Otherwise you will end up old, outdated, and unsupported. There are two religions I feel will have the hardest time transitioning. That is Jehovah's Witnesses and Muslims.

Possible 2300 year prophesy tie in

"The reason behind the foundation of these Masonic orders was that until 1723 all freemasons had to be Christian Trinitarians (believing in the Father, Son and Holy Ghost). In 1723 freemasonry was declared open to all ‘good men and true who were not atheists or irreligious libertines’ so it remained necessary to believe in a Supreme Being but not necessary to be a Christian Trinitarian. Pope Clement XII found this unacceptable and in 1738 published a Papal Bull known as In Eminenti Apostolatus Specular, which excommunicated all those who were either freemasons or assisted them unless they renounced their freemasonry. This was particularly painful in France where both freemasonry and the influence of the Pope were widespread and naturally freemasons looked for a way of pursuing their Masonic interests but avoiding the dire consequences. It was in this atmosphere that it is thought the Knight Templar Order (and most probably the Malta Order) was established."

This was taken from HERE

I usually don't like to speak about prophetic years and such but because of my background as a Jehovah's witness I must have gotten the bug. I find myself looking at the dates closer and closer trying to put the pieces together. I am really not looking to prove anything just can't seem to stop myself. So here I go.

I have been looking for a possible tie in for the 2300 years that was spoken of in Daniel 8:13-14.

I have looked at what some were saying about the year 544 bc and happened to add 2300 solar years to it. This is a mistake I believe for anyone who is looking at prophecy. Days in prophecy are the same as days for anyone else. It has a night and day. The thing that is different from today and back then is how we count a year.

In the bible a prophetical year is only 360 days. Our calendar has 365.25 days which is a solar year.

Ok now translating that. 540-544 bc was around the time that Cyrus was set to prophetically capture Babylon. 2300 prophetic years later we have 1723. 2300 prophetic years are equal to 2267 solar years.

In that year we have what was called the Masonic Constitution (above). This was a change which I think allowed Masonry to infiltrate all corners of religions and institutions everywhere. The history of masonry is steeped in mystery.

In a sense it rides on the back of religion, economics, business, and all places where power seems to reside. Since 1723 it has seemingly been striving to exist at the top of all of these entities and direct the world from there. Especially where the USA comes into it. Everyone knows that freemasonry was heavily involved in the founding of the country. USA has remained the most powerful entity on earth.

Masonry prides itself on having origins from Babylon itself. I have struggled with who Babylon the great represents. I thought at one time that it was Catholicism because most religions have them as their origin although most won't acknowlege it. Monitarily speaking though it is a hard sell. Freemasonry does though have an economic system and those in power that can control it all over the world.

Interestingly Catholicism even has a hard time keeping Masons out of their ranks. Freemasonry can turn up in the oddest of places but always seems to be at the top of the food chain.

In the bible at Daniel 6:4 it describes the first of 4 beasts. This beast was to eventually walk like a man and have the heart of a man. Interestingly the king of Babylon, Nebechadnezzar, also like that ate grass like a beast for 7 years and eventually came around and became like a man again. Today there is one thing that most humans grapple with that is very similar to this. It is Evolution.

Evolution is the study of how man evolved from some sort of beast to walk upright and eventually become a man like we are today. Darwinism eventually developed from this to give us the "survival of the fittest" montra. This creates a system for the elite so that they can continue to opress individuals they feel are less than themselves in good conscience. The history of evolution and Freemasonry is tied together with humanism or nature worship.

I don't know how such an integrated system such as Babylon the Great could be burned and destroyed if it is so interconnected with existing systems. I guess we should be prepared for amazement. How ever it works, all of its works will be revealed in the process of it being destroyed.

If by chance 1723 was the date that the holy place was cleansed, then what occured? Well Adventists now believe that the holy place was heaven. If this is so then the holy place was cleansed at that time. Dan 8:14. This means that Satan was kicked out and thrown to earth at that time. This would coincide with the rise of the pervasive Freemasons.

This is just one of many theories out there of the possibilities of the 2300 days...

I leave the rest up to you...
