Lo! God Said: O Jesus! Verily, I Shall Cause Thee To Die, And Shall Exalt Thee Unto Me, And Cleanse Thee

Lo! God said: ‘O Jesus! Verily, I shall cause thee to die, and shall exalt thee unto Me, and cleanse thee of [the presence of] those who are bent on denying the truth; and I shall place those who follow thee [far] above those who are bent on denying the truth, unto the Day of Resurrection.’

Surah 3:55, QUR'AN

"He will be called the Son of God, and they will call him the Son of the Most High like a shooting star."

The Biblical "Last Days" Have Not Yet Happened

By Author Eli of Kittim

It is of the utmost importance that we compare scripture with scripture so as to understand the author's intentions rather than projecting our own subjective interpretations into the text. For example, many conservative biblical scholars insist that the term “last days” refers specifically to Jesus’ first coming some two thousand years ago. They often refer to a handful of verses that seem to support this interpretation. One such reference can be found in the book of Hebrews chapter 1 and verses 1-2:

“God, after He spoke long ago to the fathers in the prophets in many portions and in many ways, in these LAST DAYS has spoken to us in His Son.” (Emphasis added).

Here is the assumption: if Jesus’ first coming has come to pass, then the “last days” have already begun during the time of antiquity. But this is a forced interpretation that does not take into consideration the overall context of scripture, much less the rendering of the term in the original language. The actual words in the original Greek text are “ep escaton ton imeron,” where the word “escaton” means “last.” This is the same word from where we get the term “eschatology,” or the study of the final events of human history, also known as the “end times.” Now, imagine for a moment what these same scholars would say if we suddenly announced to them that we are studying eschatology, which we define as the study of antiquity. They would either laugh or think we were mad. Yet, they are quite serious when defending the exact same preposterous postulate! If we turn to the book of Isaiah, we find that the term “last days” refers to the end of the world, not to the time of antiquity. Just as in the book of Daniel—where the angel says to Daniel: “Son of man, understand that the vision pertains to the time of the end” (8:17)—Isaiah is not referring to the time of antiquity, but to the end of time. How can we tell?

Firstly, Isaiah refers to the Messiah’s future reign. Secondly, he mentions the peace that will finally endure on earth under the messianic reign. Thirdly, Isaiah clearly indicates that all wars will end and there will be a Day of Judgment! And all this is mentioned in the context of the “last days.” Isaiah writes,

"This is what Isaiah son of Amoz saw concerning Judah and Jerusalem: In the LAST DAYS the mountain of the LORD's temple will be established as chief among the mountains; it will be raised above the hills, and all nations will stream to it. Many peoples will come and say, 'Come, let us go up to the mountain of the LORD, to the house of the God of Jacob. He will teach us his ways, so that we may walk in his paths.' The law will go out from Zion, the word of the LORD from Jerusalem. He will judge between the nations and will settle disputes for many peoples. They will beat their swords into plowshares and their spears into pruning hooks. Nation will not take up sword against nation, nor will they train for war anymore." (2:1-4, emphasis added).

As you can see, the intended meaning of the term, “last days,” is the end of time. Therefore, according to Hebrews 1:1-2, Jesus speaks to mankind not during the time of antiquity, but in the end of the world! So, it should come as no surprise that this view is reiterated elsewhere in the text:

“Once IN THE END OF THE WORLD hath he appeared to put away sin by the sacrifice of himself" (Hebrews 9:26, KJV emphasis added).
