We are a unique generation. For almost two thousand years Christians have waited for Jesus to return but most alive today will actually see that fulfillment. We Christians can and should see the signs of the times. I think all will be fulfilled by the 2030’s (I erred on the side of caution in that 2050 article.)
The Rapture occurs at least seven years sooner than the second coming. There probably is also a gap of a few years between the Rapture and the signing of the covenant that starts the final week of years for Israel. So let’s assume the time between the Rapture and second coming is only ten years. That means if the second coming occurs by 2035, the Rapture would take place by 2025. Keep in mind, that Enoch departed a half generation before the flood judgment. So the gap between the Rapture and the second coming could even be longer making the Rapture sooner then 2025.
The way the world is going I cannot see how the second coming is beyond 2035. Therefore, the Church will probably be out of here by 2025. So should you sell the farm or stop preparing for life? No, we cannot be certain about anything.
There could be a civilization reset that is unforeseen. For example, a new black plague type event could greatly reduce the earth’s population or a nuclear world war could set the world’s advances back a few decades. Even so, we can be fairly certain that the end time timeline is correct, because Israel is back in the land, and we can see the stage being set up for Bible prophecy to be fulfilled. We also can observe that the world is rapidly going nuts.
The scriptures indicate that believers will know the general time of His coming. We are not blind, so seeing the things happening, it seems reasonable to me to assume that the second coming is before 2035 and the Rapture is before 2025. We can know we are in the general time of the end of the age because what scripture spoke about as occurring in the last days is taking place. By the way, we are the only generation since Jesus left that can make such claims.
There are many signs that the end of the age is upon us. The whole world is focused on Jerusalem just like the prophets said would happen in the last days. The nations of the world have an obsession compulsion disorder over a very small nation in the Middle East. The only reason most of nations of the world hate tiny Israel is the satanic influence working through religion and Marxism.
Another great sign of the end of the age is that most of Christendom has departed into apostasy. Scripture warned us that this would take place in the last days. The churches of the world are teaching a worldly gospel that is no gospel of Jesus at all. They just have religion.
The world also has become like it was before the flood and the days of Lot. There is violence and debauchery everywhere. Men are having sex with men and women are having sex with women and they call it normal and insist that Christians also endorse this evil. Most that are not homosexual shack up instead of getting married. Pedophilia and porn is everywhere. Humanistic foul-mouthed women with vaginas on their head have no shame in protesting the natural God-given order. Deranged Romans One women are aborting their babies by the millions. Islam and Marxist influenced nations are persecuting Christians relentlessly. Everywhere evil is said to be good and good is said to be evil. How can judgment not fall on this evil generation?
Proselytizing is being outlawed everywhere even in the so-called Christian nations. Preaching a Jesus of inclusiveness and all paths spiritualism is not the gospel of Jesus Christ. What is the purpose of the Church being here if it cannot preach the gospel of Christ in the world? The world is rapidly blinding itself to the truth. Obviously, when there are no more ears able to hear there is no reason for the Church to be here.
The scriptures warn that people who reject God will be given over to a reprobate mind. We can see that insanity taking place. They deny any truth that comes from God. They replace it with fairy tales like evolution and reincarnation. True Christians wonder how the world can get any more evil. Trust me it can. Take the influence of the Church out of the world and you are left with global Nazism on steroids. In case you have not noticed, that is what Islam and the Marxist left is all about. One day very soon God is going to pull the Church and the world will get its evil ways.
Scripture gives us other signs. In Daniel’s vision there were only four beasts that would rule the world. The last beast would trample upon all nations. That beast was the Roman Empire. The Roman Empire did not die. It is the western nations of the world being led by the illuminated (luciferain) world elite. The satanic globalism efforts taking place will not be stopped until Jesus returns and smashes it. The luciferains plan to have global governance in place by 2030 (UN agenda 2030).
The prophecy about Elam is about to be fulfilled (Jer 49: 35-39). It has never occurred in history and it must occur before the Lord returns. Elam occupies the part of Iran where their nuclear reactors are located. The prophecy says the people of Elam will be scattered to all the nations of the world. The evacuation of millions of Iranians most likely happens because that area of Iran becomes radioactive. The people of Elam come back in the millennium. We can see why that happens to Iran in today’s news headlines.
Russia’s military power will peak in power in the 2020’s to fulfill Ezekiel 38, 39. China intends to be the foremost world power by the 2030’s Only in our generation could an army from east of the Euphrates River kill one-third of all men on earth.
Man will soon be redesigning humans that were made in the image of God. People that are no longer human cannot be saved. Genetic modification is a clear sign that Jesus will come very soon. Will humans still be made in the image of God in just two decades?
Only in our time can they control all so they cannot buy or sell without the mark of the Beast (Rev 13:17). We will have 5g communications by the early 2020’s and 6g (666g) by the early 2030’s. 5g will eventually connect all electronic devices to the internet and 6g will connect everything to a worldwide Beast communications system. I think 6g will eliminate the need for communications towers and WiFi. The communications may use something like sub particle neutrinos that can travel long distances through everything.
The fact that America is not found in Bible prophecy means that America is most likely judged before tribulation events. The destruction of America would change the focus of the world back to those nations mentioned in Bible prophecy. America was the greatest voice of Christianity in the world but is now the leading exporter of evil in the world and is ripe for judgment. America still has a lot of Christians so it seems likely to me that God would remove His people before that judgement occurs.
It’s obvious to me that the world cannot continue on its present course much longer. It would self-destruct. Jesus must come back to save a remnant. For the reasons I mentioned and many more the Rapture should occur by 2025. That means true believers should be out of here within just seven years. The hope of the Rapture should encourage believers in whatever difficult days lie ahead.
Thank you.need the hope!
Blessings,
Of course, does the rapture occur before the “removal” of America?
If not, our natural lives here are likely to be cut [even more] short.
If so, that would explain a lot in terms of the scenarios that lead to the removal of America.
Since I do not believe in chance, on my personal end, it appears that God has wiped our slate clean / cleaned up loose ends. Suffice to say, God has my attention. From our end, He is on the move. After that, I don’t know what it all means, but I have some work to do that now has every opportunity to get done.
Blessings in Christ, Craig
I believe it! I feel that the Holy Spirit trying to get us all prepared. But it is harder than I thought. And I have to let go of some things. Who knows what else could pop up. But I have Peace always with Jesus no matter the Failures not to give up. So we can be ready! Blessings to you! Now you are talkin my kind of stuff. I might suppose to be quite. But I don’t think so. Testimonies are important! We need the encouragement from one another. So Comfort one another with those words of our Savior that purifies us with expectations till that day that we see him Face to Face and we become like him!
Scripture says different. If the rapture of the church happens before the tribulation begins, then what Saints would be turned over to the anti christ?
Rev_13:7 And it was given unto him to make war with the saints, and to overcome them: and power was given him over all kindreds, and tongues, and nations.
It doesn’t seem possible! But I can feel that joy rising up on the Inside! Anyone Else? I’m going up with a shout anyway! Hey!
what a great article full of wisdom and truth and common sense. The thing about people being blind these days is incredibly true because i see it all around me at enormous levels that just make me think how can these people be so blind. I also heard about the 5g coming soon and it will stick around for a while until 6g comes out most likely around 2030 which u are correct don.
Everything points to the 2030’s no doubt.
Scripture also says 144,000 will evangelize on this earth at that time. And so their will still be believers or Saints here. But they will be Persecuted like never before. And I would not want to be here.Blessings to you, Linda
The promised land is indeed re-established, though it is (properly) populated by the descendants of Judah, those of the scepter promise (Gen 49). Ephraim, the Northern Tribe called Israel of the Birthright promise (Gen 48), is still scattered among the nations. The coming decade should indeed be interesting on all fronts!
Good observations Don, I hope that you are right about a lot of the things. I sort of expect that you are. Turkey, seems to be moving away from its western orientation rapidly. It is now very easy to see an alignment of Turkey, Russia, and Iran to satisfy the Ezekiel War scenario. As you noted, it is easy to see the Basra dispersion. I think that it is not hard to see terrorist and Iranian WMD moving into Damascus with the result of the destruction of Damascus.
I personally think that things will progress very rapidly after the Rapture. The removal of the Bride of Christ will open the floodgates, so to speak, of end time sequence. I agree with you that there will be some time between the Rapture and the start of the final seven years. I think that will happen rapidly though. Personally, I consider the time to be 3 1/2 years, so that there is a 7 year time between the Rapture and the Abomination of Desolation. Too many people are rigidly teaching that the Rapture starts a 7 year sequence until Christs return. IMO,the enemy will use that number to proclaim himself as God, though I think you said that or similar in your Revelation Commentary.
Anyway thanks again. I am dogmatic about none of the above as I make no claim to special discernment. Personally, I hope the Rapture is a 2018 event, I, and I suspect you, are very much looking forward to it.
Hi Klaus,
You just are not discerning the scriptures correctly. Linda is correct, many will be saved in the tribulation.
Scripture says that the gospel of the kingdom will be preached to all before the end comes. The gospel of the kingdom is not the gospel of grace. The gospel of the kingdom tells people to repent and get themselves ready for the kingdom coming on earth. That gospel will be taught by the two prophets, and the 144,000 to everyone on earth. Many will believe and be saved. Those that reject the truth will by deceived by the Antichrist.
The Raptured Church is just one phase of the first fruits. It is the taking of the bride of Christ. The bride of Christ is not all that attain to the kingdom any more than a queen is the kingdom.
Don
Glad to see you have moved your possible rapture dating closer to our current date. As one who has followed you and dialogued with you about this for years, I was one of those who felt the rapture would come earlier than you had previously forecast. I was very comfortable with a rapture before 2030 and even before 2025 and I still am.
I find it very interesting that I come at this earlier rapture dating by a very different process than you have. I am still not willing to publish these methods or findings quite yet… working on writing books that will do that. Yet, I certainly warmly welcome your independent methods and findings.
A soon rapture is a positive thing for we born again Christians personally. However, it does put a greater burden of evangelism upon each of us towards all of the lost. How many of your loved ones are you willing to lose forever?
But it’s a good thing overall… Luke 21:28 Holman Christian Standard Bible (HCSB)
28 But when these things begin to take place, stand up and lift up your heads, because your redemption is near!”
Maranatha!
It is certainly not a coincidence that astute christians are almost unanimously sensing that the end of the age us upon us. I think it is the Holy Spirit readying us for our soon departure.
Hi Fount,
I have not moved up any dating for the Rapture. I have always said that I think the Rapture will occur about 10.5 years from the second coming and I think the second coming will be in the 2030’s. Do the math. I document my position in my Revelation Commentary written in 2004 and in other articles.
Jim, I have noticed that too. It means that we need to step our efforts to what we should have doing anyway.
I’ll just expand upon the “many Christians are not true Christians” part of Don’s article by saying that many people who call themselves Christians today fully support homosexuality and boldly (and blindly) claim that the Bible doesn’t say a single word about homosexuality, which is blatantly false, but it’s a popular position that I hear from other Christians nowadays… There are very few Christians today who hold true to the written Word of God, and it’s sad… the rapture can’t come soon enough…
I feel it in my heart too guys/gals. The signs are everywhere. I think even some non Christians are sensing something big on the horizon. A major war or wars seem to be right at our doorstep!
What a hope!What a comfort.Thank you so much.Rapture is my only hope, for myself and all true Christians.There are too many things that make life miserable and unbearable.
I always had this hope but only on last Tuesday I began to thank the Lord for giving me this hope, and it lead me into a joyful worship time and helped me to forget about everything that was depressing. True joy spread into the whole room making everyone celebrate the love of God. Glory to God.
Don,
I agree. Thanks so much for the in-depth Biblical logic and amazing body of work.
I just have to up my witnessing game to so many I love. Tick Toc.
Hi,
Re: “reset” – The more I think about it, I would discount that there could / would be a “reset”.
Unlike the church age, which doesn’t resemble a breakage of prophecy, I see the book of Revelation as not eluding to a “reset” scenario because that would imply cycles of periods such as what we are experiencing currently (which is somewhat post Romans chapters 1 and 2).
Yes, there is the book that John swallows and the pronouncement(s) during the [great] tribulation, and, yes, there are the “ages to come,” but I don’t see any prophesied cycle of 1 or more resets.
I’m pretty sure “this is it” (pretty much everything Don says above in the blog).
What boggles my mind, even though it is prophesied, is “Christendumb”. It’s just amazing the numbers of people who flock in droves to the anti-christ and yet claim some connection to Jesus. While they completely ignore the wickedness of those “handles they pull” and things such as google’s purge of Jesus. Amazing.
Well Don looks like you’re spot on. And if this is true, nationalization of the network would put us all that much closer to the beast system.https://www.zerohedge.com/news/2018-01-28/white-house-planning-nationalize-5g
Since the article came out, the Trump administration has denied this. So maybe it’s fake news, or maybe it isn’t.
I still feel Trump has or has had unbeknownst some part to play in all this. God has certainly been with him the last couple years.
the antichrist could very well be some form of an advanced robot AI… in the 2030’s we will have robots that are smart as humans if not smarter so maybe the mark of the beast could be some form of a computer chip that connects us to the artificial technology beast
Hi Cardinal
The image set up in the Temple that speaks probably represents an AI system as well as the Beast, even if there is an evil supernatural spirit behind it.
hey don i think ur definitely right… i also wanna mention that a new movie is coming out called 2nd coming of Christ in march and a new passion of christ movie is also coming out soon in which mel gibson said its gonna be one of the best movies ever made… sorry if i’m off topic.
When ye therefore shall see the abomination of desolation, spoken of by Daniel the prophet, stand in the holy place, (whoso readeth, let him understand:) Matthew 24:15
I think this abomination that causes desolation could be the black stone that Nimrod
received from Satan as his
representation to invoke Satan’s power and presence.
This black stone was taken to Pergamum (Rev
2:13) and to the serpent temple in Vatican and then to Mecca and is kept within the golden doors waiting to reach its ultimate goal in Jerusalem.
Thanks Don for the Article. Very Informative as I replied recently. I do have a question however. If the Judgment of Our God were to occur on America before the Rapture what do you think would happen?
Hi Linda,
Anything that God wants to happen
Don do you think it’s possible that America could be the head of the beast govt? Maybe America isn’t mentioned because she is the epitome of revived Rome, and is lumped in with the other nations that Rome was initially comprised of. After all we are made of of the many peoples from Europe.
It seems, at least for now, that Israel wouldn’t even consider a treaty unless America was involved. Even though our military isn’t quite what it used to be numbers wise, it is still the most capable. Anyway I’m just brainstorming here. Thank you for this blog!
Hi Steve,
I still think that there will be a revived Roman Empire in the same area as the old Roman Empire. European elite inspired by Satan have been trying to put that back together throughout history. With just the last two attempts being Hitler and the EU. I think after America is taken out of the picture the revived Roman Empire will come together rapidly.
Thanks for putting your ideas out here for discussion. Thought provoking, as usual. The idea that the U.S. is removed before end time events really ramp up may or may not be the case. There are a lot of countries that aren’t mentioned in end time prophecies, it could be that those countries simply don’t have a prominent role. Additionally, Israel being given the “wings of a great eagle” could be referring to the U.S. in some way.
Have you given any thought to the role of cryptocurrencies in end time prophecies? I have been researching this market sector recently and there are many fascinating projects that really are not in the mainstream as of yet. Existing government structure seem to be rather nervous about the rise of Bitcoin and many other crypto’s that could threaten their monetary systems. Meanwhile the crypto community seems intent upon disrupting existing protocols. Many of these cryptos are actually templates for systems, governmental structure, etc. As with any new technology, there are many exciting potential benefits from some of these projects but when looked at through the lens of end time prophecy, there are some things that are very troubling. The very nature of this market sector fosters an environment where a project could develop over a period of years almost unnoticed and within a very short period of time become widely known and universally accepted. I encourage people to research and become knowledgeable concerning this topic.
Hi Dave,
I know most other nations are not in Bible prophecy but I think the point is that America is the world’s foremost superpower. If Bible prophecy will be fulfilled anywhere near my timeline America should play a central role but she does not. It suggests that the focus of power in the world will move from America.
I think the economic systems of the world will soon go digital and that cryptocurrencies will play some sort of role in that.
Dear Don, On the Rapture my inquiry about Bible Scripture is where it states the time of the Rapture the condition of the world would be like in the Days of Noah. Partying, Drinking, Carrying on in Marriage & So Forth. Pretty much what is happening now. Jesus would come like a Thief in the night, one taken, one left. But coming for a Spotless Church. Believers & Saints If that is correct. Spotless, Sinless? Perhaps Our Lord is waiting for the last ones to come in before he shuts the door to Judgment. But we may have to go through Persecution like our Brothers and Sisters In Christ already have and are enduring even now to become that Spotless Church? Because we are not appointed to wrath. So in about 5 years from now some of this could take place and then the Rapture. Not setting Dates. It just kind of paints a Picture. Thank you for your Letters, Knowledge, and Wisdom from God. It means a lot and helps preparing for the Future if that is at all possible. Sincerely, God’s Love and Blessings to you, Sister in Christ, Linda
Hi Linda,
The Church is spotless because Jesus washed us with His blood, not because we ever could become sinless through persecution or anything else.
The one taken one left passage is not talking about the Rapture, it is talking about the gathering by angels at the end of the age.
Thank you My Brother in Christ, Don, if it is alright to say it. I have wondered about that for years. Both points taken! Was a little confused. One other question for now; Please direct me to one of your Blogs or Bible Scripture about when we see Him ( Face to Face and become like Him.)( Same thing, Rapture or Christ’s Return at the end of the Age?)Sorry it took so long to get back to you. Finally figured it out, Many Blessings to you, Linda 🙂
Linda,
It is talking about after the resurrection of our bodies. The Rapture is part of the first phase of the first resurrection.
Excellent summation Don. Please contact me when able.
Pete Garcia
Hi Don, great article and comments, I have been a student of Bible prophecy for some years now, I agree with your timeline, what is your primary factor for 2035 as your NLT year for the Second Coming? Is it related at all to Jerusalem coming again under Israeli/Jewish control in 1967, then adding one 70 year generation (Luke 21:32) until all things are fulfilled?
God bless you!
Nathan
Hi Nathan,
I really do not have a NLT date, Pete Garcia is wrong about that. I think the Lord will be returning to deal with the world between 2030 and 2040 based on current world trends. I wrote about these here.
I do not believe a generation is 70 years. It is more like 20. I do not think the fig tree parable is saying all will be fulfilled 70 or 80 years from the rebirth of Israel. Search my website for more information on this. The best place to do that is near the bottom of the homepage of the website.
Thank you sir, I have already begun reading your other articles!
Hi Don,
Thanks for putting together all your articles, I am still wading through them, before I came to your site I was in the Post-Trib camp, but after reading your site, I am now more in the pre-trib camp.. why would believing loyal followers of Jesus be subjected to wrath or tribulations, we are his bride afterall.
I personally believe the battle of Armageddon will take place exactly 2000 years after Jesus’s crucifixion. it makes sense in the 7 day creation story. That God rests for the 7th day in the Millenium Kingdom.
But I have two questions:
QUESTION #1.
Can we be sure that Jesus Died in 33AD?.. maybe he died in 30AD or 28AD.. it could be 28AD as it would tie up pretty well with Israel’s 70th year anniversary, and the passage that says the Generation that sees Israel becoming a nation wont pass away until his return.. (that Generation being 70 years or 80 with Strength)
QUESTION #2.
Also I came across the following scripture in Genesis 45:6
For these two years the famine has been in the land, and there are still five years in which there will be neither plowing nor harvesting. 7 God sent me ahead of you to preserve you as a remnant on the earth and to save your lives by a great deliverance.
Which seems to imply that we will be taken away (delivered 2 years into the 7 year tribulation)
I am a newbie Christian, still finding my way, and trying to form opinions about interpreting the word of God, so I would be very interested to hear peoples opinions on the above two things.
But either way.. Definitely last days.. Whoowhoo so good to be Saved, and know where you will be spending eternity 🙂
HI JordenC,
Experts cannot agree on the date of the Crucifixion. I am not aware of any thinking that it was as early as 28 AD. I think 32 or 33 are the most likely years. I don’t think the fig tree parable is saying that there will be 70 or 80 years after the rebirth of the state of Israel. It is saying most of those seeing the signs He previously talked about will live until He returns.
Genesis 45:6 is talking about a historical drought. I see no reason to say it is also talking about the tribulation. By the way, the 7 year tribulation is a term that Christians made up for the final week of years that will fulfill the Daniel prophecy. There is little reason to believe that there will be actual tribulation for Israel in the first 3.5 years. This is the time of the false peace under the Antichrist and it is the time that the two prophets give their testimony before the great tribulation judgments come in the last 3.5 years.
My Revelation Commentary was written to help people understand premillenial theology. You can find it from the top bar.
Hi Don,
I have linked an article below as a reference about my question. According to the article, the largest number of Jews are living in Israel and according to the Torah, the Jubilee cycle must be counted (50 yrs) and the twelve tribes must be identified. I would like to know your views on this as it relates to the rapture and end times. Any thoughts on why a 50 year Jubilee would need to be counted at a time when many in the church believe we are in the last generation? I’m sorry if my question is one born out of ignorance/lack of understanding of God’s word. I have much catching up to come anywhere near as versed as you are. I do, however, believe that there is a reason for not only every verse in the Bible, but every sentence and word.
https://www.breakingisraelnews.com/110564/messianic-tipping-point-majority-jews-israel/.
Hi Teresa,
These are just unbelieving Jews making things up as they go along. They are looking for the Antichrist not Christ. There can be no Jubilees without the Temple or Tabernacle standing. The last Jubilee was announced by Jesus at the start of His ministry. There will not be another Jubilee until after the day of wrath is poured out and Israel accepts Jesus as Messiah.
Don,
Thanks for clearing it up for me.
Thank you for all your hard work over the years explaining the events which must soon happen. I wonder that the churches do not seem to deal with this subject given the times we are living in. To me it is obvious. Even so come Lord Jesus.
Hi Don,
I was watching Prophecy Watchers and this guy put together some math that can let us know the season we are in. The possible return of Jesus between 2020 to 2027 from the decree in 1537 by Sultan Suleiman to rebuild Jerusalem.
Adding 483 yrs to 1537 bringing us to 2020 or adding 490 to 1537 brings us to 2027 isn’t that interesting?
This concords with your 2025 timeline for the rapture, I found it very interesting.
https://prophecywatchers.com/videos/steve-cioccolanti-divine-code-part-2/
Start video at 20.08 “the most important prophecy in the entire bible about the coming of the Lord”
Hi Bill B,
I don’t have a 2025 timeline for the Rapture. I only think those looking for it might expect it to happen by then.
I put Steve Cioccolanti in the same league as Johnathan Cain. They are exceptionally good at fabrication.
Happy Thanksgiving Eve Don,
Yes for sure they are, have to be good at fabricating to sell books.
But it’s still interesting though because of the window 2020-2027 and another thing was listening to Tom Horn talk about Wormwood hitting in 2029 that’s also the date given by a NASA Scientist (cant think of name now) I looked him up & read his interview.
Those guys at SkyWatch are great marketers.. look at this broadcast lol. I hope it’s true that means 2029 is in the 2nd part of the tribulation.
Hi Bill B,
Happy Thanksgiving to you as well, and all others reading these comments.
Trouble is that Tom horn is in the same league as the other two guys. He even appears on Sid Roth to prove it.
His 2029 Wormwood book will give him almost a decade to sell his book to gullible people before he is again proven wrong. I still remember his Apollonian rising 2012 and other things he claimed that have not come to pass. Of course he does not claim to be a prophet, but he does claim to get hidden knowledge that other Christians do not get.
Now Horn is telling everyone that everyone in governments and in science are lying about asteroid Apophis missing the earth in 2029. He suggests it will turn out to be Wormwood. As if governments and scientists could ever keep such a secret. Meanwhile the real Wormwood will hit the earth before or after his projection and people will tend to ignore it until it is to late because they will be expecting Apophis to fulfill the prophecy in 2029. Just as many are (thanks in part to another Tom Horn book) expecting the old Pope of Rome to fulfill the False Prophet Prophecy.
Skywatch founder is Tom Horn and he hires and has on people of like mind.
Hi Don,
I cant watch Sid Roth that’s like watching daytime talk shows like Dr. Phil & similar. They have TERRIBLE actors to demonstrate the story line.
But I don’t throw them all out w/ the bath water some of them still got something to add and events cumulate around the same time & times like under 2030, maybe call it confirmation.
But anyway I forgot to leave the link to Tom Horn for anyone to check it out.

Hi Don, I find it extremely fascinating to learn that Russia has modernized it’s military in a very short time. This year, no one doubts that the red army is a force that can conquer all Europe even without nuclear weapons.This power can only be dealt with supernaturally because I don’t see any force that has the muscle to fight Russia. If Russia and the USA are gotten rid off then the rest of the prophecy will play out as you have mentioned. I think at this point nations even those that are nationalists will embrace globalism with the help of Antichrist.Thanks for the article Don, you are spot on.
We have to subtract 2300 days from Judgment – Rapture day so 2020 is in the target zone. I say this because of what the Book of Truth (now open) is revealing to us about the end of time. Even if you don’t believe, it’s obvious that all the external signs are here and the “King of the North” very upset at the West. Amazingly, a passage in Daniel 11 reads – “Ships from the West will… ” – the last time the west is ever mentioned again. Time to look up.
Hi Don,
I enjoy your writings… I picked up on what Bill B said about 2027 and just read Pete’s note above that we have to subtract 2300 days. So, I think they are saying that 2020 will be judgment – rapture time? Daniel 11:30 also says they will go back and vent their fury against the holy covenant. I’m assuming if these guys are interpreting Daniel correctly, they are saying that the king of the north will turn their sites at Israel who sets up the Abomination? Interesting and a bit difficult but I’m waiting, watching and praying…
Hi dnewbury,
I think the tribulation events actually start to happen toward the end of this decade. The Rapture however can happen anytime
The Talmud states that starting in 30 A.D. and for 40 years thereafter, until the destruction of the Temple, that:
1) the Temple doors swung open each night & the Rabbis could not figure out why
2) the miracle of the Lot (black & white stone but black was drawn for 40 years & the Rabbis knew something bad was coming but not sure what)
3) the miracle of the Red Strip (the crimson cloth tied to Azazel goat did not turn white to show forgiveness of the sins of the Jewish people)
4) the miracle of the Temple Menorah (most important lamp of the 7 candle stick in the Temple would not stay lit)
Would this be possible evidence that Jesus Christ was crucified in 30 A.D.? I realize this is extra-biblical. (This is from “Solomon’s Temple” website), link http://www3.telus.net/public/kstam/en/temple/details/evidence.htm
Thank you!
Hi Marily,
Food for thought, but even if those signs happened, the oral traditions were not completely put to paper until around 500 AD. They would not be using the modern calendar even if there is some kind of dating in the tradition. That probably came later, so I think the 30 AD conjecture that is being used is not certain for the same reasons that in hindsight modern scholars differ on the date of the crucifixion.
I believe its coming. Another blood moon july 5 2020 too. I think maybe 2028.Why i say that is i think God will keep trump in power for another 4 years because hes very much for israel.After that well. Things will get very bad very quick.
Shalom everyone. This is an interesting site. I wanted to add to the conversation. I think the signs mentioned in the Talmud were due to the Jewish leaders rejecting the Messiah. He began His ministry at about 30 AD. He could have been crucified and risen anytime between 33 and 41 AD. 33 is assumed because 3 Passovers are mentioned in the Gospels. 30+3=33. Some copies of the Gospel of Matthew have 41 AD written on them. So anywhere between 2033 and 2041 is a probable time for His return.
Pretty close Christopher. My deep research into the Biblical timeline shows that it is most likely Jesus started His ministry on earth with His baptism in the fall of 26 AD. (Too much to get into those details here, but they do exist.)I believe He returns to rescue His faithful before the last days (two days equaling 2,000 years) are up. He said He would cut those days short for the sake of the elect (the anti-Christ is going to be winning big time at that time). So, most likely BEFORE the fall of 2026. The world is going to hell in a hand basket way too quickly to have to wait until 2041. (I am soon to publish much of my research…)
I really hope much sooner than 2030!! I was hoping the rapture would occur this year…still hoping!
Don,
This is my 1st time leaving a reply (actually a question) on The Prophetic Years. My question is do you think that when the Trumpet sounds and the shout from the Archangel happens will just the bride of Christ hear it or will the entire planet hear it as well?
Hi Chris,
I think the words “come up here” will only be said for those with spiritual ears to hear. The others probably will hear the sound of the trumpet but like the companions on the road with Paul they won’t really know what was said.
Pete Garcia’s new article pointed back to this post. Very interesting to re-read it 3 years after it was written. How much more insane and crazy has the world gotten in just these last three years? How much more crazy will it get in the next 3 if we are here to see it? We are halfway through 2021, not sure how much more time we have left, can’t be too much. Each time I book an event or make plans for something that is 6 months or a year out, I wonder if I (we) will still be here.
