thy holy city, to finish the transgression, and to make an
end of sins, and to make reconciliation for iniquity, and to
bring in everlasting righteousness, and to seal up the vision
and prophecy, and to anoint the most Holy.
Know therefore and understand, that from the going forth
of the commandment to restore and to build Jerusalem
unto the Messiah the Prince shall be seven weeks, and
threescore and two weeks: the street shall be built again,

Seventy Week Prophecy

and the Nethinims, unto Jerusalem, in the seventh year of
Artaxerxes the king. Ezra 7:7

11. John Gill: Baptist Scholar
• “...this space of "seventy" weeks is not to be understood of weeks of
days; which is too short a time for the fulfilment of so many events as
are mentioned; nor were they fulfilled within such a space of time;
but of weeks of years, and make up four hundred and ninety
years; within which time, beginning from a date after mentioned, all
the things prophesied of were accomplished; and this way of
reckoning of years by days is not unusual in the sacred writings.”

•“The Pope has power to change times, to abrogate laws, and
to dispense with all things, even the precepts of Christ.”
Decretal, de Tranlatic Episcop.
•The earth also is defiled under the inhabitants thereof; because
they have transgressed the laws, changed the ordinance,
broken the everlasting covenant. Therefore hath the curse
devoured the earth, and they that dwell therein are desolate:
therefore the inhabitants of the earth are burned, and few men
left. Isa.24:5-6
49. •"The Catholic Church for over one thousand years before the
existence of a Protestant, by virtue of her divine mission,
changed the day from Saturday to Sunday."--The Catholic
Mirror, Sept. 23, 1893.
•The Catholic Universe Bulletin, August 14, 1942, page 4.
"The Church changed the observance of the Sabbath to
Sunday by right of the divine, infallible authority given to her by
her founder, Jesus Christ. The Protestant claiming the Bible to
be the only guide of faith, has no warrant for observing
Sunday."
50. •"The Bible says, Remember that thou keep holy the Sabbath day.
The Catholic church says, No! By my divine power I abolish the
Sabbath day, and command you to keep the first day of the week.
And lo, the entire civilized world bows down in reverent obedience to
the command of the holy Catholic church!" Father Enright, C.S.S.R.
of the Redemptoral College, Kansas City, Mo., History of the
Sabbath, p. 802
51. • "The Pope and God are the same, so he has all power in Heaven and
earth." Pope Pius V, quoted in Barclay, Chapter XXVII, p. 218, "Cities
Petrus Bertanous".
• "The Pope takes the place of Jesus Christ on earth...by divine right the
Pope has supreme and full power in faith, in morals over each and
every pastor and his flock. He is the true vicar, the head of the entire
church, the father and teacher of all Christians. He is the infallible ruler,
the founder of dogmas, the author of and the judge of councils; the
universal ruler of truth, the arbiter of the world, the supreme judge of
heaven and earth, the judge of all, being judged by no one, God himself
on earth." Quoted in the New York Catechism.
52.
53. Westminister’s Confession of Faith (Presbyterian)
VI. There is no other head of the Church but the Lord
Jesus Christ. Nor can the Pope of Rome, in any sense, be
head thereof, but is that Antichrist, that man of sin, and
son of perdition, that exalts himself, in the Church,
against Christ and all that is called God.
54. Dr. Henry Grattan Guinness
“The seventy weeks of Daniel, or 490 days to the Messiah,
were fulfilled as 490 years; that is, they were fulfilled on the
year-day scale. On this scale the forty-two months, or 1,260
days, are 1,260 years. We ask then, Has the Papacy endured
this period? An examination of the facts of history will show
that it has.”..:
55. Adam Clarke: Methodist
• In prophetic language a time signifies a year; and a prophetic
year has a year for each day. Three years and a half (a day
standing for a year) will amount to one thousand two hundred
and sixty years, If we knew precisely when the papal power
began to exert itself in the antichristian way, then we could at
once fix the time of its destruction. The end is probably not very
distant; it has already been grievously shaken by the French. In
1798 the French republican army under General Berthier took
possession of the city of Rome, and entirely superseded the
whole papal power.
•Adam Clarke’s Commentary on Daniel 7:25
56. 538-1798= 1260 Years
•David Simpson (1745-1799) theologian and religious writer,
educated at St. Johns College, Cambridge, a Methodist,
wrote: "Is it not extremely remarkable, and a powerful
confirmation of the truth of Scripture prophecy, that
just 1260 years ago from the present 1798, in the very
beginning of the year 538, Belisarius put an end to the empire of
the Goths at Rome, leaving no power therein but the Bishop of
that Metropolis? Read these things in the prophetic Scriptures;
compare them coolly with the present state of Europe, and then,
I say again,deny the truth of Divine Revelation, if you can.Open
your eyes, and behold these things accomplishing in the face of
the whole world. This thing is not done in a corner."

•"Perhaps the boldest thing, the most revolutionary change the
Church ever did, happened in the first century. The holy day, the
Sabbath, was changed from Saturday to Sunday. 'The Day of
the Lord' [dies domini] was chosen, not from any direction
noted in the Scriptures, but from the Church's sense of its
own power..... People who think that the Scriptures should
be the sole authority, should logically become [Seventh-Day]
Adventists, and keep Saturday holy."
