Dear friends, the absolute key to a thankful heart in whatever time period or season one lives in is ONLY found in Jesus Christ and in His RIGHTEOUSNESS (2 Cor. 9:15)! In Jesus is found ALL forgiveness, ALL pardon, All hope, All promises, ALL RIGHTEOUSNESS, and ALL ETERNAL LIFE for the child who has placed ALL their trusted in Him for ETERNAL SALVATION in RIGHTEOUSNESS (2 Cor. 1:20)! For ALL of us who are, the question to be asked is, are we truly thankful for Almighty God our Heavenly Father for so loving us that He sent His only begotten Son on our behalf (John 3:16-17), that we may be redeemed, forgiven, received, adopted, and made RIGHTEOUS in the Person and work of Jesus Christ (Rom. 10:4, 1 Cor. 1:30)?
Rejoice in the Lord always: and again I say, Rejoice!
Dear friends, are we truly thankful in light of the day in which we live to still be able to worship Almighty God in Spirit and TRUTH here in America, and that we still have a measure of time left to get out His ETERNAL saving Gospel message to this lost, dying, and condemned world? Beloved, are we truly rejoicing that the Lord Jesus is coming again very soon and that this fallen world is NOT our ETERNAL home? Beloved, we have such an ETERNAL glorious hope, such ETERNAL precious promises and such an ETERNAL fulfilled future with our ETERNAL Savior and Lord in perfect RIGHTEOUSNESS (1 Cor. 2:9, Rev. 22:5)! Beloved, that truly is the thankful fire that must burn in our hearts all year long! We need to possess that thanksgiving of heart that keeps us fresh and joyful as we walk this pilgrim journey (Phil. 4:4)! For indeed, this world is truly NOT our home, we are truly just a pass'n through! Beloved, see and possess your ETERNAL calling in Christ Jesus, be His thankful, faithful ambassador and light in such days, and ALWAYS give thanks to the ETERNAL LORD of life in ALL THINGS (Col. 3:1-4, 1 Thess. 5:16-18)! For this is indeed the Will of God!
Beloved, may this Thanksgiving season be a wonderful, thankful blessing to you all! We indeed have much to be ETERNALLY thankful for (Phil. 4:4)!
One of the most impossible acts for an unregenerate individual to do is to thank Almighty God in RIGHTEOUSNESS, and since the majority of humanity rejects Almighty God's RIGHTEOUSNESS, how many billions of individuals are truly thankful to their ETERNAL RIGHTEOUS CREATOR for His mercy and goodness to each one of us (Psalm 14, Rom.. 1:18-32; 10:2-4; 1 John 4:10)?
Are you truly thankful for the RIGHTEOUSNESS of Almighty God?
It's easy to "praise" Almighty God and thank Him when everything seems to be going "our" way (Prov. 14:.12). Apart from a saving relationship to Almighty God in RIGHTEOUSNESS (John 3:16-17; 1 John 4:10), we see this hypocrisy all the time expressed and redefined in the unthankful, unregenerate hearts of fallen humanity. Some examples of this expressed unrighteous thanksgiving to God are found in the sports world, Hollywood, politics or in general life (Isa. 5:20). I don't doubt that many are truly "thankful" in their hearts and minds but not in RIGHTEOUSNESS and that is where the great deception lies (Prov. 14:12; John 3:19-20; Eph. 2:1-2; Rev. 11:7-12).
True thanksgiving begins when one enters into a saving relationship with Jesus Christ in RIGHTEOUSNESS!
This Thanksgiving, are you truly thankful to Almighty God in RIGHTEOUSNESS, or have you established your own altered world along with your own altered world of thanksgiving?
Beloved, this is absolutely mindblowing to me! The Lord Jesus perfectly understood Daniel 9:24-27 and used this prophetic text in Matthew 18:21-22 as an example of what full and complete forgiveness is in RIGHTEOUSNESS! I wonder if the Peter truly understood what text Jesus was referring to and its complete meaning, as Jesus taught Peter this Divine lesson on true and full forgiveness and its restoration in RIGHTEOUSNESS!
I wonder if the Peter truly understood what text Jesus was referring to as He taught Peter this Divine lesson on true and complete forgiveness and restoration in RIGHTEOUSNESS!
The Lord Jesus also testified as He carried His cross to the children of Israel of that day, and stated in Luke 19:41-43 that, "Only if they knew the time of their visitation" and what would happen in the near future as a result of their being ignorant of the wonderful prophetic truths found in Daniel 9:24-26. O beloved, how many believers in the risen Savior of today miss all the signs and wonders of our hour! No wonder the Rapture Trumpet for the Body of Christ will come as a thief to many in these ever-growing EXPONENTIAL Last Days (1 Thess. 4:13-18; 5:1-4)!
Beloved, below is a brief outline of Jesus' message to Peter on full and complete forgiveness in RIGHTEOUSNESS and its complete and full reconciliation of both parties! Also, it is a deeper look into the beautiful love and reconciliation of Yahweh God with His people Israel in the near future (Zech. 12-14)! The very One teaching Peter on forgiveness and reconciliation in RIGHTEOUSNESS, will be the very One who will be the propitiation for Israel, but also the whole world (Isa. 53, 1 John 4:7-10)! O beloved! How absolutely beautiful is that!
Divine Restoration and Forgiveness in RIGHTEOUSNESS - Daniel 9:24-27
1. “Seventy Times Seven” Comes Directly From Daniel’s Prophecy
When Jesus said:
“I say not unto thee, Until seven times: but, Until seventy times seven.” — Matthew 18:22
He used the exact language of Daniel 9:24:
“Seventy weeks (seventy sevens) are determined upon thy people…”
Daniel’s phrase “70 weeks” literally means:
70 × 7 = 490 years
In Hebrew:
shabuim = “sevens”
So 70 sevens = 490
Jesus’ wording directly echoes Daniel’s timeline.
2. Daniel’s 490-Year Prophetic Clock
Daniel 9:24–27 lays out six purposes God will accomplish within these “70 sevens”:
Finish the transgression
Make an end of sins
Make reconciliation for iniquity
Bring in everlasting righteousness
Seal up the vision and prophecy
Anoint the Most Holy
These are fulfilled in stages:
First 69 weeks (483 years) → Messiah comes
Gap (church age)
Final 70th week (7 years) → tribulation, covenant, abomination of desolation, restoration
Thus, “70 × 7” is a complete, divine cycle of redemption.
3. Why Jesus Used “70 × 7” in Matthew 18
When Peter asked Jesus how often to forgive, Jesus responded:
“70 × 7” — the Daniel number — the number of God’s complete forgiveness.
This is not accidental.
Jesus was teaching:
As God is completing His 490-year plan to forgive Israel, so you must forgive fully and completely.
It’s a prophetic hint pointing back to Daniel’s countdown of forgiveness and reconciliation:
Daniel 9:24 → “to make an end of sins”
Matthew 18 → forgive without limit
Jesus was saying:
Forgive as God forgives: completely, fully, perfectly — “70 sevens.”
4. The Deeper Biblical Connection
A. 490 is the number of complete redemption cycles in Scripture
490 appears repeatedly:
70 × 7 = 490 years of Israel’s sabbath-rest violations → leading to Babylon (2 Chron. 36:21)
70 × 7 = Daniel’s prophetic timetable
70 × 7 = Jesus’ call for complete forgiveness
It always symbolizes:
Divine completion, forgiveness, restoration, Jubilee, and release.
B. Daniel’s 490 years are about God forgiving Israel
Daniel 9:24 emphasizes forgiveness:
end of sins
reconciliation
everlasting righteousness
Jesus uses the same number to teach:
Forgive the way God forgives.
5. Summary: How “70 × 7” Connects to Daniel 9:24–27
1. Daniel’s prophecy = 70 sevens (70 × 7 = 490) 2. Jesus intentionally uses the same phrase in Matthew 18. 3. Both contexts deal with forgiveness, reconciliation, and completing God’s plan. 4. 490 becomes the biblical symbol for God’s full, complete, divine cycle of redemption. 5. The 70th week of Daniel (the last seven) is the final stage of God completing His promise to Israel.
The music for this Christmas CD is old school hymn style, which is reverently and simply done with many new original Christmas Songs, which speak of the Messiah's birth and advent!
May it be a blessing to you this Christmas season!
What a wonderful time of the year Christmas is to reflect on the heart of the TRUE Christmas message! An ETERNAL RIGHTEOUS LAMB and SAVIOR was born; Who is ALMIGHTY GOD the ETERNAL SON; Who was given to be the RIGHTEOUS PROPITIATION and REDEEMER for Adam's fall race (Isa.. 9:6-7; John 1; 3:16-17; Rom. 5:12-21; 2 Cor. 5:21; 1 John 4:10)! Oh the WONDROUS RIGHTEOUS LOVE of Almighty God the Father!
