Daniel 7 and the Ancient of Days
Who is the Ancient of Days? This question came in via email and I thought I would take a few minutes to create a video to share my thoughts on it. I would certainly appreciate some feed back from you. Daniel 7 is a challenging chapter to say the least and the context we're dealing with in the video even puzzled Daniel.

In his video posted at clipser.com, John Hagee lists 7 of his ten reasons the battle of Armageddon is imminent.

Well, I'm not listening right now, and unless the FedEx plane flying over my house can be called a shuffle, I can't hear it. Can you? Is it a Countdown to the Final End or a Miscalculation?
Below are the seven reasons Hagee lists ...
