The Two Witnesses are Key! Where Do the Two Witnesses Fit into Daniel 9:27?

My dear friends, no doubt that such a thought on this "established" topic is bound for harsh criticism by those who hold strongly to their Daniel 9:27 position... but... here we go.... My dear friends, the key to understanding Daniel 9:27 is found in the 1260 day ministry of the Two Witnesses, which takes place in the first half of the seven year tribulation (Rev. 11:1-13). Leave these Two out or diminish them at all and the whole prophetic text of Daniel 9:27 falls apart. Many fine biblical scholars throughout the years have suggested in this passage that it will be the anti-Messiah - who will make a covenant with the many (an abundance) - which also includes the nation of Israel and will bring shalom and security to the nation of Israel by adding his mighty strength (gabar) to it (Ezek. 38: 38:8,11, 12, 14, 39:26, Dan. 9:27).

In this text it never refers to Daniel's people or to the nation of Israel. It just points out that his covenant will be with an abundance of peoples (Dan. 9). These scholars have also believed that it will be through this covenant with the Anti- Messiah that the Jews in Israel will be able to rebuild a temple on the Temple Mount, which is at present one of the greatest holy sites in the Islamic world (Dan. 9:27). The Jews WILL indeed rebuild the temple at this time, but not in light of any treaty or covenant made with the anti-Messiah. It will be the Two Witnesses who will begin the re-institution of the daily scarifies and oblations, which will cease after their ministry for 1290 days because of Satan's Anti-Christ (Dan. 9:27, 12:11, Matt, 24:15, 2 Thess. 2:3-4, Rev. 11:1-2) and then begin again under the Messiah for a thousand years in the Kingdom Age (Ezek. 40-48); which will also point back to Messiah's perfect atoning work. These also through those sacrifices will begin to teach secular Israel their desperate need for repentance, propitiation and salvation dressed in sackcloth and that the returning King of Israel and Savior of the world is now at hand (Isa. 53, Dan. 2: 44-45, 7:13-14, 9:27, 12:11, Matt. 24:15, Mark 13:14, John 1:29, Rom. 10:2-4, 2 Thess. 2:4, 1 John 4:10, Rev. 11:1-2)!

Dear friends, I would like for you to hear me out on before you cast me aside as an apostate. Read this post in its entirety and looked at the Scripture references and see for yourself how absolutely crucial it is to NOT explain away or neglect the place of position that the Two Witnesses have in the first half of the seven year tribulation (Rev. 11).
