What “End Time” Is It? Are We There Yet?

 

Updated 9/28

Do you remember the long trips that you took as a child in the car with your parents? And what was the most asked question; “are we there yet?” 

Let’s re-ask that question in regards to end times Bible prophecy; are we in the end times—the last 7 years—yet? Let’s consider the possibilities. 

In light of the many prophecy related developments that have occurred in the last year or two, and in light of data about future prophecy related events, I believe that it is highly possible that we are in the last 7 years. 

The majority of the data that leads me to this conclusion can be found here; Calculations for the "End of Days" 

To that I would also like to add that it is highly possible that Seal 1 may have already been opened. The Rider on the White Horse was Given a Crown! Has Seal 1 Been Opened? 

At present I feel that the 2 most likely scenarios for possible start dates for the last 7 years are 11/9/17 and 10/19/19. If one of those dates is valid then this is how things would calculate out. 

Scenario #1 

Day 1: Beginning of 70th Week; Nov 9, 2017 

Day 1139: Latest Seals would start by; Dec 22, 2020 

Day 1230: Abomination of Desolation; Mar 22, 2021 

Day 1260: Rule of antichrist; Apr 21, 2021 

Day _?_: Rapture 

Day 2490: Bowl judgments; Sep 2, 2024 

Day 2520: Armageddon; Oct 2, 2024 

Day 2565: Beginning of the Millennium; Nov 16, 2024 

 

Scenario #2 

Day 1: Beginning of 70th Week; Oct 19, 2019 

Day 1139: Latest Seals would start by; Nov 30, 2022 

Day 1230: Abomination of Desolation; Mar 1, 2023 

Day 1260: Rule of antichrist; Mar 31, 2023 

Day _?_: Rapture 

Day 2490: Bowl judgments; Aug 12, 2026 

Day 2520: Armageddon; Sep 11, 2026 

Day 2565: Beginning of the Millennium; Oct 26, 2026 

So as you can see we will soon find out if scenario #1 is valid. We would have to see the antichrist arise in spring of 2021. Take note of the scenario #1 start date for the Seals of 12/22/20. Remember that 12/21/20 and the time following is an important watch time for major end times developments. 

Are They 8 Years Behind; Is 2020 Really 2012? Beware 12/21/20 

And why do I believe that the latest the Seals 2-4 would start by is Day 1139. Because according to an illuminati insider the antichrist is supposed to come on the scene 91 days after all the bad stuff—WW3, financial collapse, Death ¼ world pop. Day 1230 – 91 = day 1139. 

So in light of that information and the fact that Seal 1 may already have been opened; 12/22/20 is a prime watch day for the Seal 2 WW3 to occur by. If nothing regarding Seals 2-4 occurs in late 2020 and early 2021, and the antichrist does not come on the scene between now and 4/21/21, then scenario #1 would not be a valid scenario. 

And further, if the antichrist does not come on the scene by 3/31/2023 then scenario #2 would not be valid and the last 7 years of the end times as of this writing have not begun yet. 

So are we there yet, are we in the last 7 years of the end times? Before we answer that question ponder this information. 

Top Rabbi: “The Messiah is Talking With Me,” Israel in Lockdown, War Coming. 

So are we there yet, are we in the last 7 years of the end times? I do not know, time will tell. But one thing is for sure the rapture is part of the Day of the Lord event, or using the synonymous phrase, the Day of Christ event, as the verses below clearly indicate. 

17 Then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord. 

18 Wherefore comfort one another with these words. 

1 But of the times and the seasons, brethren, ye have no need that I write unto you. 

2 For yourselves know perfectly that the day of the Lord so cometh as a thief in the night. 1 Thes 4,5 

1 Now we beseech you, brethren, by the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, and by our gathering together unto him, 

2 That ye be not soon shaken in mind, or be troubled, neither by spirit, nor by word, nor by letter as from us, as that the day of Christ is at hand. 2 Thes 2 

Realizing the rapture is part of the Day of the Lord, it is then easy to see when the rapture will occur. God clearly tells us that the Day of the Lord rapture event occurs after the sun is darkened and the moon is turned to blood. 

20 The sun shall be turned into darkness, and the moon into blood, before the great and notable day of the Lord come: Acts 2 

The sun is darkened and the moon is turned to blood after Seal 6 is opened. 

12 And I beheld when he had opened the sixth seal, and, lo, there was a great earthquake; and the sun became black as sackcloth of hair, and the moon became as blood; Rev 6 

Therefore the rapture occurs after Seal 6 is opened. That is why the world sees Jesus in the sky after Seal 6 is opened, because he has just appeared in the sky at the rapture event, after which God’s wrath begins to be poured out upon the world. 

15 And the kings of the earth, and the great men, and the rich men, and the chief captains, and the mighty men, and every bondman, and every free man, hid themselves in the dens and in the rocks of the mountains; 

16 And said to the mountains and rocks, Fall on us, and hide us from the face of him that sitteth on the throne, and from the wrath of the Lamb: 

17 For the great day of his wrath is come; and who shall be able to stand? Rev 6 

Do you realize that if you are alive up to the point of the rapture, that you will be faced with living through Seals 1-5, you will see the antichrist take over the world, and you will be faced without being able to buy or sell without taking the mark of the beast? Have you prepared? 

Update 9/28: Seal 2 WW3 watch: 

Warfare Intensifies between Armenia - Azerbaijan; Other Nations Jumping in!

Overnight, warfare between Armenia and Azerbaijan intensified beyond belief.   Both sides have brought heavy armor, multiple Launch Rocket Systems, aircraft and thousands of additional troops into the fight.  Worse, outside nations, Israel, Turkey, Russia, and Iran,  are sending convoys of military gear to both sides indicating the fight is broadening very fast.

Watch ye therefore, and pray always, that ye may be accounted worthy to escape all these things that shall come to pass, and to stand before the Son of man. Luke 21:36 

I have written a book entitled The Coming Epiphany to help you understand what will happen and when, so you can be prepared. 

Not sure that you will go to heaven? The end times are knocking on the door and so is Jesus. He wants to save you; will you let him in? Find out what you must do to be saved, click here.

Where Are We In The End Times Prophecy Timeline?

 

Where are we in the prophecy timeline? That is a very good question, and the answer may startle some of you. The end times prophecy timeline all hinges on the chronological placement of the sign of the woman clothed with the sun, which occurs on 9/23/2017. (Note: For a full explanation of the sign see the post; The Sign of the Woman Clothed with the Sun in 2017.)

Before we discuss this chronology let’s first examine what God says about the sign in Revelation 12;

1 And there appeared a great wonder in heaven; a woman clothed with the sun, and the moon under her feet, and upon her head a crown of twelve stars:

2 And she being with child cried, travailing in birth, and pained to be delivered.

3 And there appeared another wonder in heaven; and behold a great red dragon, having seven heads and ten horns, and seven crowns upon his heads.

4 And his tail drew the third part of the stars of heaven, and did cast them to the earth: and the dragon stood before the woman which was ready to be delivered, for to devour her child as soon as it was born.

5 And she brought forth a man child, who was to rule all nations with a rod of iron: and her child was caught up unto God, and to his throne.

6 And the woman fled into the wilderness, where she hath a place prepared of God, that they should feed her there a thousand two hundred and threescore days.

The first time, or second time as some claim, this sign appeared it was followed by the birth, death, and resurrection, of the Lord Jesus Christ, which is symbolically described in verses 2-5. Notice in verse 6, that after the sign, the woman—Israel flees into the wilderness for 1260 days or 3.5 years. This is also echoed in verse 14 in which we are told Israel will flee for “time, times and half a time,” which equals the same 3.5 years.

14 And to the woman were given two wings of a great eagle, that she might fly into the wilderness, into her place, where she is nourished for a time, and times, and half a time, from the face of the serpent.

Since Israel did not flee into the wilderness for 3.5 years after the birth or resurrection of Christ, this implies that Israel will flee into the wilderness for 3.5 years after the next time the sign appears.

This fleeing into the wilderness is as a result of war being waged against Israel by the antichrist, who rules the world for the last 42 months/1260 days/3.5 years.

This 3.5 year reign, as indicated in the verses below, is concurrent with his war against Israel and her fleeing into the wilderness, and thus both occur after the sign of the woman clothed with the sun and after the midpoint.

5 And there was given unto him a mouth speaking great things and blasphemies; and power was given unto him to continue forty and two months.

6 And he opened his mouth in blasphemy against God, to blaspheme his name, and his tabernacle, and them that dwell in heaven.

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. Rev 13:5-7.

This fact may be surprising to some, because many have been erroneously taught that the antichrist rules during the first half of the 70^th week. But scripture makes it clear that this rule is during the last 3.5 years, because after his 3.5 year reign is over, he is thrown into the pit when Jesus returns at Armageddon.

19 And I saw the beast, and the kings of the earth, and their armies, gathered together to make war against him that sat on the horse, and against his army.

20 And the beast was taken, and with him the false prophet that wrought miracles before him, with which he deceived them that had received the mark of the beast, and them that worshipped his image. These both were cast alive into a lake of fire burning with brimstone. Rev 19:19,20.

Knowing that the sign appears on 9/23/17 and that Israel flees into the wilderness sometime after the sign appears leads one to conclude that the antichrist will also take over the world, and wage his war of persecution after this sign occurs. Now the question is; how soon after?

I see two chronological possibilities for the 2017 sign, the fleeing, and the 3.5 year rule of the antichrist;

1.    The sign of the woman clothed with the sun marks the midpoint of the 70^th week. Immediately after which the antichrist will take over the world, wage his war of persecution, and Israel will flee into the wilderness. (Note: With 9/23/17 as the midpoint/day 1260, that would place the beginning of the 70^th Week at 5/13/14.)

2.    The sign of the woman clothed with the sun marks the beginning of the 70^th Week and the antichrist will take over the world, wage his war of persecution, and Israel will flee into the wilderness 3.5 years later in early 2021.

I could be wrong, but in light of the way things are shaping up in the world, if I had to pick one, I would pick the first one. And if the first one is the correct scenario, here is what we can expect to take place in the next year to fourteen months.

A general increase in earthquakes, floods, major storms, volcanic eruptions, signs in the heavens, riots, terrorist actions, wars, etc. Note: One of the events preceding the appearance of the antichrist will be the antichrist birthing ritual—the destruction of the Hoover Dam. Another event signaled to occur before the antichrist takes over the world is the destruction of NYC. These verses from Luke sum up what will occur leading up to and after the midpoint.

10 Then said he unto them, Nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom:

11 And great earthquakes shall be in divers places, and famines, and pestilences; and fearful sights and great signs shall there be from heaven…

25 And there shall be signs in the sun, and in the moon, and in the stars; and upon the earth distress of nations, with perplexity; the sea and the waves roaring;

26 Men's hearts failing them for fear, and for looking after those things which are coming on the earth: for the powers of heaven shall be shaken. Luke 21

As we get closer to the midpoint, in a 91 day period preceding the “coming onto the scene” of the antichrist, Seals 1-4 will be unleashed upon mankind by the evil forces aligned with the devil as recorded in Revelation 6.

Seal 1: Conquering world force.

1 And I saw when the Lamb opened one of the seals, and I heard, as it were the noise of thunder, one of the four beasts saying, Come and see.

2 And I saw, and behold a white horse: and he that sat on him had a bow; and a crown was given unto him: and he went forth conquering, and to conquer.

Seal 2: WW3

3 And when he had opened the second seal, I heard the second beast say, Come and see.

4 And there went out another horse that was red: and power was given to him that sat thereon to take peace from the earth, and that they should kill one another: and there was given unto him a great sword.

Seal 3: Economic collapse, famine.

5 And when he had opened the third seal, I heard the third beast say, Come and see. And I beheld, and lo a black horse; and he that sat on him had a pair of balances in his hand.

6 And I heard a voice in the midst of the four beasts say, A measure of wheat for a penny, and three measures of barley for a penny; and see thou hurt not the oil and the wine.

Seal 4: Death of ¼ of the world’s population.

7 And when he had opened the fourth seal, I heard the voice of the fourth beast say, Come and see.

8 And I looked, and behold a pale horse: and his name that sat on him was Death, and Hell followed with him. And power was given unto them over the fourth part of the earth, to kill with sword, and with hunger, and with death, and with the beasts of the earth.

After the demise of Seals 1-4, which will be unleashed upon mankind by the evil forces aligned with satan, the world will be begging for “a savior” from all its problems. Then at the precise moment, which could align with or shortly follow the sign of the woman clothed with the sun, the antichrist UFO space man will come onto the scene with the answers to all man’s problems. And as a result of his great deceptions the world will fall for his trap and hail him king of the world.

His takeover of the world, dedication of the one world religious center on the Temple mount, and subsequent performing of the abomination of desolation would quickly follow. After the abomination of desolation Israel will recognize his true identity and will flee into the wilderness. This is also when the antichrist will establish the mark of the beast digital world financial system in which no one can buy or sell without the mark—his war against Jews and saints.

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.

16 And he causeth all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and bond, to receive a mark in their right hand, or in their foreheads:

17 And that no man might buy or sell, save he that had the mark, or the name of the beast, or the number of his name. Rev 13

17 And the dragon was wroth with the woman, and went to make war with the remnant of her seed, which keep the commandments of God, and have the testimony of Jesus Christ. Rev12

These persecution events against Jews and Christians are what occur after Seal 5 is opened.

9 And when he had opened the fifth seal, I saw under the altar the souls of them that were slain for the word of God, and for the testimony which they held:

10 And they cried with a loud voice, saying, How long, O Lord, holy and true, dost thou not judge and avenge our blood on them that dwell on the earth?

11 And white robes were given unto every one of them; and it was said unto them, that they should rest yet for a little season, until their fellow servants also and their brethren, that should be killed as they were, should be fulfilled. Rev 6

After these horrific events, comes our deliverance! At the opening of Seal 6 the Lord Jesus comes to rescue the saints from the persecution of the antichrist. Jesus appears in the sky for all the world to see, the rapture occurs, and the men of the earth hide from His face because they know God’s wrath will begin. The events of Seal 6 also closely match what some believe will occur during a Nibiru/ Planet X passage.

12 And I beheld when he had opened the sixth seal, and, lo, there was a great earthquake; and the sun became black as sackcloth of hair, and the moon became as blood;

13 And the stars of heaven fell unto the earth, even as a fig tree casteth her untimely figs, when she is shaken of a mighty wind.

14 And the heaven departed as a scroll when it is rolled together; and every mountain and island were moved out of their places.

15 And the kings of the earth, and the great men, and the rich men, and the chief captains, and the mighty men, and every bondman, and every free man, hid themselves in the dens and in the rocks of the mountains;

16 And said to the mountains and rocks, Fall on us, and hide us from the face of him that sitteth on the throne, and from the wrath of the Lamb:

17 For the great day of his wrath is come; and who shall be able to stand? Rev 6

As stated in verse 17, after the opening of Seal 6, God’s wrath will then begin and will be poured out in Seal 7, Trumpets 1-7, and Bowls 1-7. For an explanation of those events see this post; End Times Synopsis.

So to answer the question; where are we in the end times prophecy timeline? The way I see it, 9/23/2017 and the sign of the woman clothed with the sun will either mark the beginning or the midpoint of the 70^th Week. BTW; the date of the sign of the Woman clothed with the sun is also encoded on the dollar bill.

A prudent man foreseeth the evil, and hideth himself: but the simple pass on, and are punished. Proverbs 22:3

What "Prophecy" Time Is It? An End Times Interview

 

 

What time is it? Most of you have been asked that question 1000 times. Have you ever been asked what prophecy time is it? Meaning where are we in the prophecy timeline? If some one were to ask me that question and other questions in this regards, here is how the conversation might go.

 

Question: Where do you think we are in the end times Bible prophecy timeline?

 

Answer: I believe that we are very close to seeing major end times events, such as the Seals of Revelation, occur.

 

Question: More specifically what are you talking about?

 

Answer: Seal 1: Conquering world kingdom—aka the New World Order. Seal 2: WWIII. Seal 3: Worldwide financial collapse. Seal 4: A pandemic. The first four Seals will result in the death of ¼ of the world’s population. (Rev 6:1-8)

 

Question: When do you foresee these things occurring?

 

Answer: If the 70^th Week began on 10/28/10 and the Second Coming of Jesus—when he returns to earth at Armageddon—will be in 2017, then I would expect the seals to occur by the end of April 2014. If the Second Coming will be in a later year then we possibly have a little more time before the Seals are opened.

 

Question: Whenever the Seals are opened, what will happen after that?

 

Answer: The antichrist/UFO man will come on the scene to “save” the world from its problems. The leadership of the New World Order will be given to him for 3.5 years, and he will take over the world. He will require “the Mark” to be able to buy or sell. A one world religion will be created, with its capital in Jerusalem. The antichrist will also perform the abomination of desolation. Seal 5 will then be opened, and the antichrist will make war against Jews and Christians. (Rev 6:9-11)

 

Question: What about the rapture, where does that fit in with all of this?

 

Answer: I believe the rapture will occur from .5 to 2.5 years after the persecution begins—I am praying for .5 years. After Seal 6 is opened Planet X, as called by many, will arrive and great and fearful events will occur. This is also the time that Jesus appears in the sky, the rapture occurs, and the wrath of God begins. (Rev 6:12-17)

 

Question: What will it be like for those left on earth after the rapture?

 

Answer: Absolutely horrifying. Here is what will occur.

 

America (end times Babylon) destroyed in a nuclear holocaust. (Rev 17:16-18:24) 

Seal 7: Fire, thunder, lightning, earthquake, 7 Trumpet judgments begin. (Rev 8:1-6) 

Trumpet 1: Horrific hail and fire, 1/3 of plants burned up. (Rev 8:7) 

Trumpet 2: Meteorite/Volcano explodes in the ocean, 1/3 ships and sea life destroyed. (Rev 8:8,9) 

Trumpet 3: Comet explodes on the earth, 1/3 of fresh water poisoned, many men die. (Rev 8:10,11) 

Trumpet 4: 1/3 of sunlight removed. (Rev 8:12) 

Trumpet 5: First woe—Demon locusts, men tortured. (Rev 8:13-9:12) 

Trumpet 6: Second woe—Demon army, 1/3 of men die. (Rev 9:13-21) 

Ministry of 2 witnesses ended. (Rev 11:1-13) 

Trumpet 7: Third woe—7 Vial Judgments. (Rev 11:14-19) 

Vial 1: Boils on men. (Rev 16:1,2) 

Vial 2: Sea turned to blood. (Rev 16:3) 

Vial 3: Freshwater turned to blood. (Rev 16:4-7) 

Vial 4: Great heat. (Rev 16:8,9) 

Vial 5: Darkness. (Rev 16:10,11) 

Vial 6: Euphrates dries up. (Rev 16:12-16) 

Vial 7: The Lord Jesus Christ and His saints return to the earth and defeat the antichrist and his armies at Armageddon with 100-pound hailstones. Great earthquake, every island and mountain destroyed, America the Babylon sinks under the ocean. (Rev 16:17-21, Rev 18:21, Jer 51:42)

 

Jesus is anointed as King of the World and the Millennium begins! (Rev 19)

 

Question: In light of this information what should people do?

 

Answer: The things listed above will occur, the only questions is when. Thus people must be prepared physically, mentally, and spiritually for these events, for they could start very soon. The most important preparation is spiritual—make sure that you are a true Christian and that you are living a life pleasing to God.

 

Question: What is a true Christian?

 

Answer: That is a good question, because there are many who think they are Christians but they are not. A true Christian is a person who believes that Jesus is God and has placed their faith in the Lord Jesus Christ for salvation from the penalty of their sins.

 

Question: How does somebody do that?

 

Answer: There are 4 simple steps to becoming a Christian. We must realize that;

 

1. We are sinners. As the Bible says; “For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God” (Rom. 3:23). Sin is falling short of God’s perfection. Everyone has sinned many times in life. We have all lied, or stolen, or cheated, or done something wrong at some time in our lives. “As it is written, There is none righteous, no, not one” (Rom. 3:10).

 

2. We deserve Hell. Realize that there is a punishment for being a sinner, and that punishment is death. “For the wages of sin is death” (Rom. 6:23). Not only a physical death, but also a spiritual death. The place of spiritual death is called Hell. “But the fearful, and unbelieving, and abominable, and murderers, and whoremongers, and sorcerers, and idolaters, and all liars, shall have their part in the lake which burneth with fire and brimstone: which is the second death” (Rom. 21:8). There is probably no person alive who can say that they never told a lie. We all have sinned and we all deserve the punishment of Hell for our sin.

 

3. Jesus died for our sins. “But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us” (Rom. 5:8). Jesus willingly went to the cross, shed His blood, and died for our sins. He paid the price for our sins. He suffered the punishment that we deserve. When He was on the cross, Jesus suffered Hell for us. Hell is a place of total separation from God. When Jesus was on the cross, God the Father separated Himself from God the Son. That is why Jesus cried out “with a loud voice, saying, Eli, Eli, lama sabachthani? That is to say, My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me?” Jesus was experiencing separation from God the Father. He was suffering the Hell that we deserve. He was paying for our sins.

 

4. We must receive Christ by faith. In order to become a Christian, it is not enough to know that we are sinners, that we deserve Hell, and that Christ died for our sins, but we must receive Christ by faith. “For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: Not of works, lest any man should boast” (Eph 2:8,9).

 

Notice that we cannot earn our way to heaven. We obtain salvation through faith, not by works. Faith basically boils down to placing your trust in something or someone. If you are sitting down while reading this, you are placing your faith or trust in the chair that you are sitting upon. Faith requires more than just an intellectual belief; it involves an action of your will. For example, if there were a pond covered with ice, and there were people standing around saying that the ice could hold them up, but they were not willing to walk on the ice, then they would only be demonstrating an intellectual belief and not faith. If they stepped out onto the ice, they would be demonstrating faith.

 

One can place their faith in Christ by simply calling out to Him in prayer, for the Bible says, “For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.” I expressed faith in Christ by sincerely praying a prayer like this:

 

“Dear Jesus, I am a sinner. I deserve Hell. Thank you for dying for my sins. Save me. Come into my life. Make me the kind of person that you want me to be. I thank you that you have and that you will take me to heaven when I die. Amen.”

 

If you sincerely pray that prayer with all your heart, then the Lord Jesus will come into your life and forgive your sins, and save you from an eternity of Hell. If you were to die tomorrow, you would go to heaven. Not because you are good enough to get there, but because you have received the payment of your sins. It is that simple.

 

"Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that heareth my word, and believeth on him that sent me, hath everlasting life, and shall not come into condemnation; but is passed from death unto life." (Jn 5:24)

 

Question: Anything else you would like to add?

 

Answer: Yes, there is more that you need to know about the end times. I have put the information in an easy to understand end times Bible prophecy book entitled; The Coming Epiphany. You can download it for free. BTW; whatever you do, do not take the Mark, it will dam you to hell.
