DESCRIPTION

Revelation timeline explained like never before. It stays true to the word of God and perfectly aligns with all the end time prophesies. We are almost there and it is time to get ready to meet our Lord!. I really got awestruck at the accuracy of the prophesies and how they all agree with each other though they were written by different people at different places and at different times. Our God is a living God who was and is and is to come!. Please download the document for proper viewing of the timeline chart. It is free!Important points:----------------1) 2000 years doesn't start from the birth of Christ but from the day of resurrection according to the below scriptures. a) Passover lamb was chosen four days before it's sacrifice. b) Sun and Moon were created or made to appear on the fourth day. c) Christ is with us for 40 days and Holy spirit came after 50 days after the resurrection.2) Unrepentant church and unbelievers will be thrown into 10 years of tribulation to sanctify them before the rapture. True church will be saved from the tribulation but will be raptured in the 10th year along with people who goes thru tribulation. However, the rapture will happen before the final 7 year tribulation.3) Prediction of broad time period of the rapture doesn't contradict the verse "But concerning that day and hour no one knows, not even the angels of heaven, nor the Son, but the Father only - ESV" as the day and hour is still unknown.

time of his second coming.

† Astronomical science proved that the Passover [14th day from the new moon(1st day) of the first month] occurred on 31-Mar-33 AD (Thursday) based on proleptic Gregorian calendar.

Christ enters Jerusalem on Palm Sunday (27-Mar-33 AD) which is 4 days before his crucifixion. This signifies Passover lamb being chosen 4 days before it’s sacrifice (Exo 12:3,6). ‡ Going back 4000 years from the day of resurrection (3-Apr-33 AD) exactly gives 3-Apr-3968 BC which was a Sunday (1st day of creation).

Last Days 17+ Years (2015 - 2033)

7 Trumpets - Rev 8:2 1335 Days - Dan 12:12

~ 10 Years of tribulation and repentance - Rev 2:10 * 1290 Days - Dan 12:11

~ 10 Years from the first trumpet to the Day of Atonement /Rapture - Lev 23:24,27 * †

~ 7 Years ( 1 week) - Dan 9:27

6 Years - Rev 8:2 † 1260 Days - Rev 11:3 1 Year - Rev 11:15 † 1260 Days 1260 Days - Rev 13:5 ^ 30 Days 45 Days

First six trumpets Two witnesses prophesy and

144,000 are nourished §

Seventh and the last trumpet /Rapture ‡

Antichrist's /Beast’s kingdom Sixth Bowl Seventh Bowl

/End of Armageddon war

* Based on the prophecy of a day for each year - Eze 4:6, Num 14:34.

^ Forty two months = 1260 days - Rev 11:2,3. This is equal to half week or 3.5 years based on 360 day prophetic calendar (1260 / 42 = 30 days per month). So, 1 week of Daniel’s

prophecy in Dan 9:27 is equal to 1260 + 1260 days or 7 prophetic years. This is also the last week of Daniel’s 70 week prophecy.

† Feast of trumpets is celebrated once a year based on Hebrew lunisolar calendar, which has on average same no. of days as Gregorian calendar (365.24 days) after the intercalary(13th)

month is included in the lunisolar calendar. So, seven trumpets represents seven years of God’s wrath and warning. The seven trumpet years ensures that the church goes through ten

years of tribulation as per Rev 2:10 * and also makes the resurrection and rapture at the last trumpet to happen in the period of the Day of Atonement. See below ‡.

‡ Ark of the covenant is seen in God’s temple in heaven at the seventh and the last trumpet – Rev 11:15,19. The inner sanctuary in the temple is hidden by veil, and no one was permitted to enter except the high priest, and even he could only enter once a year on the Day of Atonement, to offer the blood of sacrifice and incense before the mercy seat for atonement of sins (Lev 16:32-34, Heb 9:7). The revealing of Ark of the covenant in the inner sanctuary of God’s temple in heaven at the last trumpet signifies the atonement of sins forever to give us eternal life by transforming us into immortal bodies, which is the resurrection and rapture of the Old and New testament believers (1Co 15:52-56). This reveals that the resurrection and rapture at the last trumpet must happen in the period of the Day of Atonement. Refer to the slides ‘Prophetic dates’ and ‘Last three feasts’ for details. Also, the church must be raptured before the beginning of the seven year Antichrist’s rule as this period is the last week of Daniel’s 70 week prophecy which was given specifically to deal with the people of Israel as per Dan 9:24 (“Seventy weeks are decreed about your people and your holy city” - ESV). The period between the 69th week and the 70th week is the church age. § After the Satan is thrown down from heaven, it pursues the women (144,000 virgin Israelites). But, she will be taken to the wilderness to save and nourish her for a time, and times, and half a time (Rev 12:14) which is equal to 1260 days (Rev 12:6). 144,000 will be raptured at the end of 1260 days as first fruits (Rev 14:1,4).

Seven churches Positive Negative Warning /Counsel

Ephesus

I know your works, your toil and your patient endurance, and how you cannot bear with those

who are evil, but have tested those who call themselves apostles and are not, and found them to

be false. I know you are enduring patiently and bearing up for my name's sake, and you have not

grown weary. Yet this you have: you hate the works of the Nicolaitans, which I also hate

But I have this against you, that you have abandoned the love you had at first

Remember therefore from where you have fallen; repent, and do the works you did at first. If not, I

will come to you and remove your lampstand from its place, unless you repent

Smyrna I know your tribulation and your poverty

(but you are rich)

Do not fear what you are about to suffer. Behold, the devil is about to throw some of you into prison,

that you may be tested, and for ten days you will have tribulation. Be faithful unto death, and I will

give you the crown of life

Pergamum

I know where you dwell, where Satan's throne is. Yet you hold fast my name, and you did not deny my

faith even in the days of Antipas my faithful witness, who was killed among you, where Satan dwells

But I have a few things against you: you have some there who hold the teaching of Balaam,

who taught Balak to put a stumbling block before the sons of Israel, so that they might eat food

sacrificed to idols and practice sexual immorality. So also you have some who hold the teaching of

the Nicolaitans

Therefore repent. If not, I will come to you soon and war against them with the sword of my mouth

Thyatira I know your works, your love and faith and service and patient endurance, and that your latter works

exceed the first

But I have this against you, that you tolerate that woman Jezebel, who calls herself a prophetess

and is teaching and seducing my servants to practice sexual immorality and to eat food

sacrificed to idols

Behold, I will throw her onto a sickbed, and those who commit adultery with her I will throw into

great tribulation, unless they repent of her works

Seven churches Positive Negative Warning /Counsel

Sardis

Yet you have still a few names in Sardis, people who have not soiled their garments, and they will walk

with me in white, for they are worthy

I know your works. You have the reputation of being alive, but you are dead. Wake up, and

strengthen what remains and is about to die, for I have not found your works complete in the sight

of my God

Remember, then, what you received and heard. Keep it, and repent. If you will not wake up, I will come like a thief, and you will not know at what

hour I will come against you

Philadelphia

I know your works. Behold, I have set before you an open door, which no one is able to shut. I know that you have but little power, and yet you have kept my

word and have not denied my name. Behold, I will make those of the synagogue of Satan

who say that they are Jews and are not, but lie—behold, I will make them come and bow down before your feet, and they will learn that I have

loved you. Because you have kept my word about patient

endurance, I will keep you from the hour of trial that is coming on the whole world, to try those

who dwell on the earth

I am coming soon. Hold fast what you have, so that

no one may seize your crown

Laodicea

I know your works: you are neither cold nor hot. Would that you were either cold or hot!

So, because you are lukewarm, and neither hot nor cold, I will spit you out of my mouth. For you

say, I am rich, I have prospered, and I need nothing, not realizing that you are wretched,

pitiable, poor, blind, and naked

I counsel you to buy from me gold refined by fire, so that you may be rich, and white garments so that

you may clothe yourself and the shame of your nakedness may not be seen, and salve to anoint

your eyes, so that you may see

How to get ready to meet our Lord and to escape the tribulation?

Be like Philadelphia church, always pray, keep faith and follow the commandments of God.

Joe 2:11 The LORD utters his voice before his army, for his camp is exceedingly great; he who executes his word is powerful. For the day of the LORD is great and very awesome; who can endure it? - ESV Joe 2:12 "Yet even now," declares the LORD, "return to me with all your heart, with fasting, with weeping, and with mourning; - ESV Joe 2:13 and rend your hearts and not your garments." Return to the LORD your God, for he is gracious and merciful, slow to anger, and abounding in steadfast love; and he relents over disaster. - ESV Luk 21:36 But stay awake at all times, praying that you may have strength to escape all these things that are going to take place, and to stand before the Son of Man.“- ESV

Heb 10:24 And let us consider how to stir up one another to love and good works, - ESV Heb 10:25 not neglecting to meet together, as is the habit of some, but encouraging one another, and all the more as you see the Day drawing near. - ESV

1Th 5:23 Now may the God of peace himself sanctify you completely, and may your whole spirit and soul and body be kept blameless at the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ. - ESV
