Did Oct 7, 2023 start The 10 days (years) of awe for Israel?

My Revelation Commentary suggests that there are 10 years from the Rapture of the Church, and the opening of the first seal, until the physical 2nd coming of our Lord Jesus Christ (not just 7 years). That ten years may or may not actually turn out to be the case. Even so, in Judaism, there are 10 days of awe where Jews are to repent so that their sins are covered before they appear before God. I believe these 10 days of awe may also represent 10 years to get the nation of Israel that have returned, but are still in unbelief, time to repent before the appearing of her Messiah.… continue reading

Second coming in 2030’s – Rapture 7 to 10 years sooner

Some 25 years ago I started The Prophetic Years website with my writing of 25 articles on world trends pointing to the soon return of Jesus Christ. The various world trends all correlated to suggested to me that the Lord would return in the early 2030’s. And because I believe the scriptures teach a pre-trib rapture before the seven seals in Revelation are opened, the rapture of the spirit born Church would occur 7 to 10 years sooner. I believe this should occur by the mid 2020’s.

Today, in late 2023 it still looks to me like these events will be fulfilled in the timeline that I suggest.… continue reading

Just a few more weary days and then I’ll fly away

I have severe medial issues so I will stop posting articles and I will be closing comments for at least awhile.

I have had chronic medical issues since last fall. The blood tests indicate internal bleeding and bacteria infections. A recent CT scan revealed that I have a mass in my gut that is larger than a grapefruit and I also have two spots on my liver. The large mass is what is known as a GIST and is probably a soft tissue sarcoma.

The mass is probably too large to be taken out by surgery. I know the surgeon that ordered the biopsy said he cannot do it.… continue reading

Don Koenig’s 2021 Bible prophecy and geopolitical update

Obviously the geopolitical situation in the world is now rapidly changing. I think this will continue, because the final stage setting before tribulation events begin to play out is underway. The stage setting will be followed by the rise in Europe of the little horn mentioned by Daniel and the riding of the four horsemen of Revelation. At that time, Gog will also expand its influence in the area of the old Soviet Union.

Keep your eye on France. There is a Catholic right wing anti-immigrant anti-Islamic movement rising rapidly. Marine Le Pen of the National Front political party (now called the National Rally) may even win the spring 2022 presidential election.… continue reading

Great Reset with persecution of Christians or first another world war?

Globalist totalitarian fascism is progressing across the globe so rapidly that the world will be in an either or situation very soon. Either the world globalizes under the Global Reset program being pushed by the elitists, or this agenda will fail because we will be in a world war in short order.

I think there must be a world war because things are just not fully set up yet for prophetic events to play out as written. I also do not think we can get there through just the Great Reset plan. Besides that, what is now occurring on earth is obviously being orchestrated by spiritual rulers in high places.… continue reading

Exact sequence of events remains veiled as Rapture draws ever closer.

We don’t know what God plans for His Church on earth in these last days, but we do know that Jesus promised to come back to take His Church off the earth before the wrath of God falls on this satanic world system. With mobs and Sodom and Gomorrah playing out in the streets, the Church should be aware that the Rapture grows ever closer.

Because Israel rejected her Messiah everything has been on hold until God takes out a risen bride for His Son to rule and reign with Him. After this fullness of the Gentiles comes in, God will again deal with Israel to fulfill the remaining week of years foretold in Daniel’s 70 weeks prophecy (Dan 9:24-27).… continue reading

Tribulation begins in 2020’s and ends with second coming in 2030’s

For decades I have said that various world trends suggest that the tribulation would begin in the 2020’s making the second coming in the 2030’s. Recent events in the world seem to make that timing even more likely. By the way, that world trends page above was my total original website 20 years ago.

I have been a critic of Dr. Tom Horn because some of his books suggested that the Antichrist would rise almost a decade ago. Even so, one of his latest books called The Wormwood Prophecy has me wondering if there could be any truth to his conjecture that the asteroid Apophis could fulfill the Wormwood prophecy in 2029.… continue reading

Economic collapse and world war may occur alongside coronavirus pandemic

Could world war be coming in addition to the economic downturn and the coronavirus pandemic? The Spanish Flu killed about three percent of the population on earth and it started during World War I. That flu killed many more people than did the war. One could argue that such happenings are a judgement from God. It does seem that God purges the earth occasionally to keep evil from totally taking it over. The reaction to the novel coronavirus is about to destroy all the economies of the Western World and evil dictators are likely to see the Western panic as their big opportunity.… continue reading

Trump peace plan is not dividing Israel and won’t happen anyway

Everyone in Bible prophecy is talking about President’s Trump’s two state solution in the Middle East. I do not believe this peace proposal is dividing Israel as some are saying; nor is it the covenant that will be confirmed by the Antichrist. This proposal just goes to show you that the most pragmatic thinking still falls far short of any real peace solution for the Middle East.

The map below is the geographical proposal for a Palestinian State. All areas in green would become the future state of Palestine. There are many Jewish settlements within those green areas that would become part of the state of Israel.… continue reading

The 2020’s will turn out to be a prophetically fateful decade

I am not going to make specific predictions for 2020 but I believed we have now arrived to the decade of the Rapture of the Bride of Christ. Shortly after the Rapture the tribulation period will occur followed by the fulfillment of all Bible prophecy related to the second coming of Jesus Christ. I think most of the end times prophecies will be fulfilled in the 2030’s although the four horsemen of Revelation probably will ride in the 2020’s.

I could be wrong about the tribulation starting in the 2020’s, but if I am, I don’t think it will prove to be of much comfort to those living through this decade.… continue reading

The mystery of Babylon the kingdom counterfeit of Satan

One of the great mysteries of the Bible is how the prophecies about Babylon are to be fulfilled. The major prophecies about Babylon are found in Isaiah 13-14 & 47, Jeremiah 50-51 and Revelation 17-18. Most just focus on the Revelation prophecies and ignore the Old Testament prophecies about Babylon. Even so, any prophecies that have not already been fulfilled about Babylon in the OT still must be literally fulfilled.

If you study all the prophecies about Babylon, you should see the parallel in Revelation to what is said in the OT. The OT prophets make it abundantly clear that Babylon is a literal city located on the plains of Shinar.… continue reading

Worldwide falling birth rates signals 2030’s end of the age harvest

The Bible clearly likens the end of the age to being a great harvest of people. The people of God are reaped and stored in God’s barn and allowed into the Lord’s kingdom. The people of the Devil are gathered in bundles by angels to be burned and their souls are cut off from the earth. Harvests occur when the crop reaches maximum yield. One of the most overlooked signs of the times by Bible prophecy teachers is world demographics. Birth rates falling below replacement levels has never occurred in the history of our planet. It would be one of the clearest signs of the time that the end of the age has arrived.… continue reading

Prophecy about Elam to be fulfilled by a coalition of nations attacking Iran

With Iran in the news and acting belligerent, it is appropriate to look at the possibility of the prophecy about Elam being fulfilled soon. Elam is in the southwestern part of Iran along the Persian Gulf. It is where Iran’s main nuclear reactor is located.

elam in prophecy

Jer 49:35 Thus saith the LORD of hosts; Behold, I will break the bow of Elam, the chief of their might.
36 And upon Elam will I bring the four winds from the four quarters of heaven, and will scatter them toward all those winds; and there shall be no nation whither the outcasts of Elam shall not come.

God using America as a restrainer of empires

Most reading this article would agree that the restrainer of 2Th Chapter 2 is a spirit, but spirits work through physical agents. The physical agent restraining empires since the 20th century has been the United States of America. If America is taken out of the picture, I see no reason why prophetic events would not immediately play out.

America restrained Germany twice in the 20th century from reforming the Roman Empire. It restrained Hitler from killing all the Jews in Europe and then killing the Christians. Then America restrained the Soviet Union from taking over Europe. The Communists of the USSR likewise had an agenda to kill Jews and Christians.… continue reading

Western, Islamic or Alien Antichrist? The big prophetic picture provides insights

There are many different theories in the Church on how the end times events will play out. Some think the end time prophecies in the Bible will be fulfilled when an Islamic Antichrist comes against Israel. Others think that the Antichrist will be a false Christian or Jew that comes out of Europe. Historically many Protestants taught that the Roman Catholic Church is the Antichrist system. More recently others have come to believe that fallen angels and their Nephilim offspring will be involved.  All views have some merits so we need to look at everything and see where each fits within the big prophetic picture.… continue reading
