My Tribulation Timeline and Events Theory
PRE-STATEMENT:
I am going to try and put together my theory of the Tribulation and Events Timeline as the Lord is revealing it to me. I have done research on this subject and it seems that there is various thinking regarding some of the fine points of the tribulation period, (i.e. when the rapture will take place, before or at mid-point of the tribulation, so on and so forth). So basically, I have been relying on the Bible, ( Original KJV), the footnotes and annotations as my major resource. What better resource could one have, right? All wording in my Tribulation Timeline Theory, are my own, (except for any quotes from the Bible), as given to me under the anointing of the Holy Ghost, which is the Spirit of God. I will insert scripture to back up my theory, so check them out at your leisure. My Timeline will take you from the beginning of the Anti-christ's regime, through the seven, (7) year tribulation period to the end of the Anti-christ's regime. Here we go !
Daniel's Prophecy Timeline
Daniel 9:2-27
As the seventy, (70) years of Jewish captivity by Babylon was coming to it's end,
Daniel went humbly before the Lord in prayer and fasting making his confession known unto the Lord as it related to the terrible sins of God's chosen people, the Israeli Jews.
Read: verses 3-14. Daniel prayed a two-fold petition unto the Lord, while acknowledging the wickedness of the nation of Israel, and saying that he agreed that his people deserved the punishment levied upon them by God, Daniel also prayed, almost begging the Lord to spare the people of His, (God's) terrible wrath, (especially as it related to the city of Jerusalem), and be gracious and merciful to the holy city and the Temple. Read: verses 15-19. God sent His answer to Daniel via the angel Gabriel. Read: verses 21- 23.
Daniel's (70) Week Vision
Daniel 9:2-27
God's reply to Daniel through His messenger Gabriel was thus; the angel of the Lord said that there was to be a seventy, (70), week judgement, (Read verses; 24-27). There are a couple of things to be considered here: One is that these (70) prophetic weeks or (490 prophetic) years, were broken up into two parts, the first, prophetic (69) weeks, or (483) years have already been served perpetually or on-going, upon the nation of Israel, according to my bible annotations, this period ended just before the crucifixion of Christ, somewhere around April A. D. 33, working off prophetic years of (360 days per yr.), and not our solar years of (365 days per yr.). The second, is that we are now waiting for the (70th) prophetic week to begin, I believe this is the beginning of the (7) year tribulation period which Israel, and the entire world has yet to suffer. Note, that each prophetic week equals seven, (7), years.
The Rise Of The Beast/Anti-Christ
In this section of my theory on the Tribulation Timeline, I want to share my thinking as to the rise of the Anti-christ/beast, as I believe the Lord is revealing it to me. Already having determined that the (69th), biblical week, or (69th) year prophecy has been fulfilled, let's move on to the seventh, ( week/year prophecy). I believe, (according to biblical scripture, footnotes, and annotations), that the Beast/Anti-christ will arise out of European Union, herein referred to as the, (EU), I am not sure from what European country this great powerful world leader will arise, however, I believe that the resurrection of a type of Roman Empire will come along with this leader. (Read; Dan. 7:7-12 about the 10 horns/kings and the "little horn" a different king who will subdue three of these kings).
I believe the latter king represents the Anti-christ. A political, economic, military system will be established, as I talked about in my series called, DrawDown To The Second Coming Of Christ, (for those of the GodTube Community who have viewed my videos on that subject). I talked about a post sixth head, which is the Beast or Anti-Christ and his world system, which comes at the onset of the first part of the tribulation period. Also Read; Dan. 7: 24 & 25 on how this false system will impact the saints and Jews.
According to my understanding of the scriptures, (again, I use the original KJV Bible), this beast will arrive on the scene, and one of the first things he will do, is make a seven, (7) year, or one, (1) prophetic week covenant/agreement, (like a peace deal), with Israel, he will allow the Jews to rebuild the Temple, thereby, allowing the them to enter into the Temple again for worship. I believe many Israeli Jews feel that they have been unfairly denied practice . The Beast will resurrect this practice. (Read; v 27), by the way, we are still in chapter (9) of the book of Daniel. Also, in verse (27), it tells us that in the "midst" , or middle, (31/2 yrs.) of his seven year agreement with the Israeli Jews, the Beast/Anti-christ will break this agreement and stop Jewish worship unto the Lord in the temple.
In this same verse, (Dan. 9:27), it tells us that this is the beginning of what is called the "Abomination of Desolation, " which means this Beast will end Jewish worship as they knew it, and set himself up to be the real Messiah to be worshiped. The Beast/Anti-Christ will eventually end ALL organized religion worldwide. He will also "speak great words against the most High, and shall wear out the saints of the most High" . (Read; Daniel 7:25), to complete the scripture. The "Abomination Of Desolation" will usher in the second half or 3 1/2 yrs. of tribulation, which includes the terrible wrath of God, called "Great Tribulation. " Reference scripture: (Read; Matt. 24:15).
At this juncture I want to give my view on the Rapture, as you all may know, there are varying views on when the Rapture will or might take place. After having researched this particular subject matter, (mostly in the bible), I am more convinced than ever, that there will be some Saints/Christians along with the Jews in the first half, and at least a portion of the second, (31/2), years, which included the "Great Tribulation, " however, the days of the "Great Tribulation" will be cut short for the "elect" of God. I believe that at some point during the second 3 1/2 yrs. of the tribulation, (before God unleashes His Great wrath upon this earth), the Saints/Christians will be Raptured and one third of the Jews will be taken to a safe place on earth by the archangel Michael, (a valley that God will open up, between the mountains), where they will remain till the end of the Beast/Anti-christ's regime. Also, read (Dan. 12:1), which explains about the "time of trouble" .
NOTE: I am just expressing my opinion here, and trying, as best I can to tie in the scriptures that I believe support my theory. First, as we remain in the book of Daniel, in (9:24), we find that the Lord has given a time frame of seventy, (70), biblical weeks, to get six, (6), major events accomplished. According to my bible annotations and my own personal calculation, seventy prophetic weeks equals (490 prophetic yrs.), minus (7), which equals, (483 years), the latter number is calculated as such because we are still waiting for the seventh biblical week to commence. This biblical week will start with the onset of the tribulation which will last a total of (7) years. Remember, that each biblical week represents seven years.
I said all that to say this, according to the scripture, (Read; Daniel 9:24), these six events will take a total of (490 prophetic yrs), to complete, then Daniel's prophecy will have been fulfilled. Now, the last of these six events have to do with bringing the Israeli Jews to the knowledge of the truth of who Jesus really is; He is their Messiah, their God, their Christ, their Savoir, and their redeemer, just as He is for all the rest of us who believe on His name, and have become disciples of Christ. It is also about God's redemptive power. In other words, God's ability to redeem His wayward children. Whenever we go astray, (as in this case with the Jews, when they began to worship idol gods), the Lord has the power to bring us back in line with His Word.
The last, (3 1/2 yrs.) of the tribulation, did just that for at least one-third of the Israeli Jews. In my humble opinion/theory, based on the Word of God, especially in the book of Daniel, when the final chapter of the Daniel's vision comes to fruition, (after the final
biblical week/year of tribulation and great tribulation that the Jewish people and all world will suffer), at least one third of the Israeli Jews will accept, acknowledge, and revere Jesus for who He really is to them as He has always been. They will say to God, that He is their God, and He will say to them, you are my people, at this point, Daniel's prophecy will be fulfilled and the book can finally be SEALED.
Second, however, before the book can be sealed, according to the scripture, the "Abomination of Desolation" will begin. When the Anti-christ will abruptly, (after just 3 1/2 yrs.) , end the seven year agreement he made with the Jewish people in Israel, which allowed them to rebuild the Temple on the Mount, and resume their daily sacrificial offerings and worship unto the Lord. At this point, the Anti-christ will set himself up in the Temple to be worshiped as God by all the world, this is the beginning of the "Abomination of Desolation. " In Revelations 13: 1-8, we find that all those, whose names are NOT written in the "Lambs Book of Life, " (unbelievers), will be the only ones who will worship the Beast/Anti-christ.
Third, I believe the scripture supports the Rapture of the Church, (body of believers), taking place at some point during the second, (3 1/2 years), of the tribulation, and before God's terrible wrath is poured out on the whole earth, which is called the "Great Tribulation. " The bible says that the Anti-christ 'will make war with the saints to overcome them, ' (Read; Rev. 13:7). The Lord said that because of the "elect's sake, " (the saints are the elect of God), the days of this period will be shortened, (Read; Matt. 24:22). Also, Revelation 16:6, tells us that Satan's followers have shed the blood of "saints and prophets, " and because of that, God caused them to drink that same blood they shed.
Also, one-third of the Jews, (God's chosen people), will be spared. If, there were no saints or Jews alive and remaining on earth at the beginning of the tribulation, and into the second half of the tribulation, which includes the "Great Tribulation, " then the scriptures I just mentioned above, would be null and void. There would be no "saints, " for the Anti-christ to war with or overcome, there would be no need for the tribulation period to be cut short because of the "elect's sake. " In my view, according to the way I understand the word of God as it relates to this part of the prophecy, the saints/born-again believers will be Raptured, and God's chosen people the Jews, spared and taken to a safe place on earth, by the Arch Angle Michael, before God's great and terrible wrath is poured out on the earth, ("The Great Tribulation"). These are those who's names were found in the "Lambs Book Of Life. " They will also reign and rule with Jesus Christ, ( along with the patriarchs of old), during the 1,000 year Millennium, which begins after the "Great Tribulation" brings about the fall of the Beast/Anti-christ's empire/kingdom.
Revelations: 16:12-16; 17:4-18
The Battle Of Armageddon/Fall Of The Anti-christ
My theory on the fall of the Anti-christ is thus; I believe according to the Word of God, and biblical footnotes, the "Battle of Armageddon" will be the last war where the Beast/Anti-christ will attempt to prevent the Second Coming Of Christ. In verse (13), it explains about the (3) unclean spirits, these represent devils that support Satan's kingdom. They are namely, the dragon, (Satan), the beast, and the false prophet. In verse (14), it talks about these devilish spirits working miracles for all the kings of the world to see and marvel, therefore, these global kings will gather together to war with our Almighty God . In Rev. (17), it supports the latter verse, saying that these evil forces will war with the "Lamb, " which we know to be the "Lamb of God, " but the Lamb will conquer these forces, cause He is the "Lord of lords, " and "King of kings. " The Armageddon war will take place in place called, ("Har Megiddon, " in the Hebrew language), or "Hill of Megiddo" . This will be Satan's last ditch effort to prevent Christ's Second Coming.
Suggested Reading:
1. Revelation 17: Entire Chapter - "The Doom Of Babylon Predicted"
2. " 18: Entire Chapter - "The Fall Of Babylon"
NOTE: Compare the two chapters to get the complete picture of the fall of Satan's/Beast's Babylonian type empire.
Summary/Conclusion
With continued help from the Lord, I will attempt to give a short summary/conclusion of my theory on the Tribulation Timeline. Please refer to scriptures throughout to backup my theory.
First Point: Daniel prayed a dual prayer/petition to the Lord, first, he acknowledged that the Jewish people, (Daniel's ethnic background), had sinned against God, therefore, deserved the harsh punishment levied upon them by God himself. Daniel knew that God's judgement was always fair and just. However, Daniel also prayed that the Lord's chosen people, (Israeli Jews), would be spared God's terrible wrath, especially the Holy city of Jerusalem.
Next Point: God's reply to Daniel's prayer/petition came through the angel Gabriel, saying firstly, that the Lord had heard Daniel and that Daniel was loved, however, God had put a seventy, (70), week judgement on the Jewish people for their wickedness. Remember, each prophetic week represents, (7), years a total of, (490) prophetic years, this judgement was to be ongoing, in other words, non-stop. We are working off a biblical calendar of, (360), days, NOT our calendar of, (365) days per solar year. According to my Biblical research, which included, scripture, footnotes and annotations, I believe that, (69) weeks of this judgement has already been served and that we are now waiting for the, (70th) week to begin, which I believe will usher in the (7) years of Tribulation including the Great Tribulation.
Next Point: The seven year tribulation will usher in a global military, economic, and political system, initiated by Satan/ 1st Beast, and ruled by the 2nd Beast/Anti-christ, or sometimes called Prince. When this system arrives on the scene, it will indicate that the seven, (7), years of tribulation has begun. This system also represents a type of the Old Roman Empire. Remember, that these seven years of tribulation are divided into two parts. The first being when the false system headed up by the Anti-christ begins there will be a covenant/agreement made between the Anti-christ and Israel, which today, would be referred to as a peace deal. This agreement will be set to last seven years, or one prophet week. The Anti-christ will allow the Jews to rebuild the Temple on the Mount, and reinstate their daily sacrificial offerings to the Lord.
Next Point: However, in the "midst" , or the middle, (3 1/2) years of this seven year agreement, the Anti-christ will abruptly end Jewish worship in the Temple, set himself up in the Temple in Jerusalem to be worshiped as God or the Messiah. The Bible calls this the "Abomination of Desolation. " The Anti-christ will eventually end all organized religion, and demand that the entire world serve and worship him. The Anti-christ will also speak terrible things against the Most High God, persecute and even murder many Jews and Christians who remain on earth when the Tribulation period begins. However, I believe that during the second half of the tribulation, before the great wrath of God is unleashed upon the earth, (called the "Great Tribulation"), the Saints, (baptized believers), the "Dead in Christ, " the patriarchs of old, will be raptured together to meet the Lord in the air, in preparation for the Millennial reign. Also, one-third of the Jewish nation will be spared and taken to a place of safety on the earth, during this "Great Tribulation" .
Last Point: The "Battle Of Armageddon" as I understand the scripture at this point, is going to be the LAST war waged by the Anti-christ and his military in order to prevent Christ's second coming. This battle will take place at "Har Megiddon" or "Hill of Megiddo. " As we Born Again Believers know, Our Almighty God will win this war with the Anti-christ/beast and his powerful military. God will conquer these forces, bringing Satan's kingdom/system/empire to and ultimate end. God is an Awesome God, because He is the "Lord of lords and King of kings. "
GOD BLESS YOU ALL
THANKS FOR READING MY BLOG OR WATCHING MY VIDEOS !
Praise The Lord Everyone,
I was recently inspired by one of my GodTube friends to write my first GodTube blog, after having read her blog, I wanted to share just one of several healing miracles that God has wrought in my life. I personally know Him as a AWESOME healer and deliverer of ALL manner of disease, if you just put your faith and trust in the supernatural power of the mighty God. I am talking about the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob, by the way. Way back some years ago, (I won't say how many), but trust me, it's been a long time, I was diagnosed with Glaucoma, (an incurable eye disease), for which I was being treated with eye drops and tranquilizers. This is a horrible eye disease, as some of you might know, but if you are unfamiliar with Glaucoma allow me to share with you my experience.
I first became concerned about my one eye when it started to constantly run, was very red, (as if I had pink eye), when my eyeball was very hard to the touch and swollen, every time I moved my eyes the one eye would hurt really bad and felt like I had grain in my eye, finally the vision in this eye became very blurred all I could see was a white spot, I really got scared then, so my husband took me to an Optometrists, (regular eye doctor), to see what was going on with my eyes. I was told by the doctor that this disease only affects one eye at a time, however, can and did, in my case, move from eye to eye at any given time. The first blessing was that after the optometrists examined my eyes, (as you can see, I do ware glasses), he recommended me to a eye specialist, Ophthalmologist), because he saw some black spots in the back of my eye and wanted me to be further examined and tested. The blessing was, had I not been recommended to the eye specialist, by another doctor, I would have had to wait weeks to get an appointment, which could very well have resulted in blindness.
I was told that if a person goes blind in one eye from Glaucoma, it is almost certain they will eventually go blind in the other, so the Lord knew I needed to get seen by a specialist like, RIGHT NOW !!! So, I got in the next day or two. Anyway, the specialist looked into my eyes with very a bright light, (which sent excruciating pain through me, when he looked into the affected eye), then he took some kind of medical measuring tool and measured for pressure in both my eyes, for this test, I had to keep my eyeball perfectly still, that was really hard to do. Finally, the specialist put some type of serum under my skin on my arm and made appointment for me to come back in a few days. At my next appointment, the test on my arm showed positive for a fungus called Hystoplasmosis, this fungi is common in states such as Ohio, because of the Ohio Valley, (Ohio is one of the "Histo." states).
This fungus affects your throat and many times will move to the eyes, as in my case and this was the underlying cause of the Glaucoma , keep it mind that Glaucoma is still an incurable eye disease. I was treated with eye drops and tranquilizers, (which by the way kept my stomach upset so the doctor took me off the pills). After a few months of treatment, my Glaucoma went into remission for about a year or so. However, on a day when my husband, (who was long distance trucker at the time), was out of town, this horrible disease decided to kick up again only in the other eye, then I did a real stupid thing, because of the pain and the other symptoms that go along with Glaucoma, I got some old eye drops and put them into my eye, (OUCH), not thinking that the medicine was old and spoiled, and boy did I pay for that. My eye burned as though I had set a match to it, and it burned all night long, there was nothing I could do by cry in agony.
Thanks be to my GOD, my husband called me that night and said he would be home the next morning, I told him about what I had done, so he rushed home as soon as he could. Here is the second blessing; after he was home which was on a Saturday, he called my eye specialist office, because the office was open a half a day on Sat. the receptionist said that my doctor was out of town at a medical conference, so I ended up having to see another doctor in the office, which was not familiar with my case, however, my file was there. I had to wait until this doctor saw all of his regular patients. Finally he examined me and gave me a prescription for some eye drops, and told me to NEVER put old drops in my eye again. If I went into remission again, to throw away any left over meds. Of course he didn't need to tell me that after what I had suffered the night before. :~D
After a short while the disease went back into remission, this time for a total of about 7 or 8 years. In the meantime my family and I moved to the state of North Carolina to do a ministry for the Lord, we lived there about three or four years and wouldn't you know, the old devil kicked up again, with all the same symptoms, I had no eye specialist in N.C. so we went through the phone book and just called a ophthalmologist, being a new patient, not being referred, the receptionist told my husband I would have to take an appointment several weeks hence. He said my wife can't wait, and told her some of what I was going through even as he spoke. The receptionist/nurse said the only thing she could do is call us if there was a cancellation.
Now, here is the MIRACLE; my husband hung up the phone, he anointed me and prayed for me. I was in terrible pain and crying, thinking Lord I am going to go blind if I have to wait for weeks to be seen by this doctor. I was on my knees by my bed with the phone on the bed, about five or so mins. after my husband hung up from talking to the doctor's office, the nurse called, I answered and she said someone had just called to cancel their appointment and I could come to be seen the very next day. The Lord had answered our prayers, but wait, I not through yet. The North Carolina eye specialist put some drops into my eye, (after having gotten my medical history especially as it related to the eye problem that I had suffered with, and been diagnosed and treated for in Ohio), he sent me into another room to wait for about an hour, relaxing with the eye drops in my eye.
Finally, he called me back into the exam room, and ask me, have you ever had eye surgery, I said, no sir, he proceeded to examine my eye with the same bright light, as the doctor in Ohio did, and said there was no sign of scar tissue, he said to his nurse that I had never had eye surgery. What this North Carolina eye specialist said was the Miracle, he said, well, if you had Glaucoma before, (and he said that this fungi would have come from the Ohio Valley), you don't have it now, 'It looks as though you've gone and got yourself HEALED.' LOL ! I almost fell out of the chair. I came out and on the way home I told my husband what the doctor had said. We both knew that this was truly a Miraculous healing from God himself.
The irony is, that God had my case documented here in Ohio, when I got this INCURRABLE eye disease, and God had it documented when He healed me of it years later in another state approximately 600 hundred miles from the state of Ohio. "What a mighty GOD we serve, angles bow before Him, Heaven and earth adore Him, what a mighty God we serve. " I pray that my testimony inspires somebody to keep on keeping on in the LORD !
God Bless
