When will the Antichrist defile the Temple?
At the midpoint of the seven-year tribulation, the Antichrist will come in, defile the Temple, and turn on the Jew. This marks the start of the final three and a half years, the period Daniel foretells when the earth comes under the wrath of God and Satan.
Les teaches that the tribulation is seven years, but the time of the midpoint is when the Antichrist will come in and defile the Temple and turn on the Jew. So it is that last three and a half years that Daniel is foretelling—a horrible period when the earth will come under the wrath not only of God but also of Satan. Daniel heard the man upon the waters of the river swear that everything would be put on hold for a time, times, and half a time, meaning three and a half years, and then all these things would be finished.
And I heard the man clothed in linen, which was upon the waters of the river, when he held up his right hand and his left hand unto heaven, and sware by him that liveth for ever that it shall be for a time, times, and an half; and when he shall have accomplished to scatter the power of the holy people, all these things shall be finished.
