TEXT OF ADDRESS BY V.T. HOUTEFF,

In order to know what takes place during the time of the end, we must first know where the time of the end begins and ends. We must know both ends if we are to know what takes place between. Now, to find when “the time of the end” begins, let us turn to–

Dan. 11:40 – “And at the time of the end shall the king of the south push at him: and the king of the north shall come against him like a whirlwind, with chariots, and with horsemen, and with many ships; and he shall enter into the countries, and shall overflow and pass over.”

In this verse of Scripture there are five clues to be carefully noted: (1) that the war mentioned in this verse is the last conflict between the two kings recorded in the prophecy of Daniel 11; (2) that it is a losing war for the king of the south; (3) that it is fought at the time of the end, not before, in, or after; (4) that the king of the north becomes great while the king of the south declines; and (5) that the statement, “at the time of the end shall the king of the south push at him,” very obviously marks the beginning of “the time of the end.”

If, therefore, we find the year this prophesied war began, we shall have established the beginning of the “time of the end.”
