OVERVIEW OF END TIMES EVENTS - DAY OF THE LORD

By Dennis Schmidt 12/2012

RETURN TO THE: BIBLE PAPER HOME PAGE.

Discussed is the End Time Events of Daniel's seven year tribulation period, at the end of days. Some major events are: Several Raptures, God's wrath on earth, Antichrist, Armageddon War, Jesus second coming, All Israel saved, Jesus reign on Jerusalem New Temple Throne for 1,000 years, Judgments, Resurrections, and New earth/heaven. All scriptures are from the King James Bible.

INDUCTIVE COMMENTS: Scriptures shows that God has a plan for every age including later times, end days, for the earth & heaven.

THEME: Multiple raptures will occur. The second coming of the Lord, with His angels and saints, will occur at the end of the seven year End Times. Jesus will win the Armageddon war; send the Anti-Christ and his False Prophet into the Lake of Fire. Jesus will put Satan in prison for 1,000 years. Finally, Jesus will remove the Unbelievers from the earth. The Believers shall form the group of people in the millennium which Jesus and the Overcomers shall rule with a rod of iron. Some of their offspring will rebel.

Zechariah 14:4 Jesus 2nd coming return will be to Jerusalem.

Luke 21:36 Escape tribulation.

1 Thessalonians 1:10 Wait for Jesus to deliver us from wrath.

1 Thessalonians 5:9-10 Jesus saved us so that we be forever with Him starting from our earth existence.

PURPOSE: This paper and most other papers on the End Times must make assumptions in writing the papers. This paper start with the requirement that most of the End Times scriptures must be discussed & shown in the teaching. Some of these scriptures could be used for several End Times Events. Which event the scriptures are used for is not always clear. Many of the End Time Event scriptures do not occur in chronological order. Also, Revelation is the key book to show God's future End Times Events including several raptures in the End Times: Overcomers (Man Child), Church, Tribulation-Saints, 144,000, 2 Witnesses, Jesus 2nd coming, unbelievers, & final war raptures.

Revelation 1:19 The seven churches extend to seven time periods and in each time period the seven churches exist even to our present day. Revelation 2 & 3 shows the Overcomers.

Revelation 4:1 This is a type of rapture. The Man Child (Revelation chapter 12) or Overcomers (Revelation Chapters 2-3) are pre-tribulation-raptured.

KEY VERSES:

Revelation 2:25-27 Man Child is fulfilled by the Overcomers who come back to rule.

Revelation 3:21 The Overcomers' will rule with Jesus.

Revelation 12:5 Jesus and Overcomers' fulfill this.

Revelation 12:11 Their life is centered on Jesus.

WHO: God mainly by Bible authors Isaiah, Daniel, Matthew, Luke, John, and Paul

TO WHOM: Elected Christians, new end times believers, and believing Jews.

WHAT: God's plan is that mankind can not save themselves but must trust in God's salvation.

Psalms 4:3 Set apart, sanctify, godly men, Overcomers, who live a godly life.

Isaiah 57:1 Take away men.

Luke 21:36 Escape tribulation.

1 Thessalonians 1:10 Wait for Jesus to deliver us from wrath.

1 Thessalonians 5:9-10 Jesus saved us so that we be forever with Him starting from our earth existence.

2 Peter 2:9 Deliver Overcomers before tribulation.

Revelation 3:10 God will keep Overcomers from temptation because they live in the deeper things of God.

WHY: What starts the End Times Events? The rapture of the Overcomers: the "He" is taken out.

2 Thessalonians 1:10-12, 2:1

2 Thessalonians 2:6-9 He is the Overcomers who when they are raptured will allow the Antichrist to come. This is a clear Pre-Tribulation-Rapture scripture of the He (group) to be taken out of the way.

WAY: God's judges sin during the last seven years end times tribulation period while still showing mercy on those who repent.

2 Thessalonians 1:5-12 God raptures the weak Church who is punished/suffering with 42 months of tribulation to count them worthy of kingdom of God

Romans 1:18 Jesus, truth, is only one righteous

2 Thessalonians 2:6-9 He is the Overcomers who when they are raptured will allow the Antichrist to come.

Revelation 16:1 Tribulation is God's wrath.

WHEREAS: These scriptures show the imminent return of the Lord. Jesus could return any time after His rapture. We are to be always ready & love His appearing which will be soon. This could occur for us by death or rapture. No future event was needed but Israel which God established in a day.

Isaiah 66:8 Israel became a nation again after 2,500 years in a 1 day vote at the United Nations.

Matthew 25:10 See entire parable of Ten Virgins: Matthew 25:1-13 shows need to be prepared for Jesus return. John 14:3 Jesus prepares mansion.

Mark 13:32-33 The Church is to watch & pray for the soon return of Jesus for His 2nd coming.

1 Thessalonians 5:1-4 Overcomers will be prepared for the day.

2 Peter 3:3-4 Until Jesus comes.

Revelation 3:3 Warning in church age to be prepared.

WHERE: In Israel and throughout the earth

WHEN: In the end days, last or later times, Daniel's seventy week, Day of the Lord, Jacob troubles, and tribulation period.

Daniel 9:24

Matthew 24:7-8, 14 Beginning of sorrows events take place, including gospel preached to all the world, before the End Times Events start. 1^st in chronological order.

Matthew 24:15 This event is in the middle of 7 years End Times & starts the second 3 & 1/2 years Great Tribulation period. 4^th in chronological order.

Matthew 24:21 Last 3 & 1/2 years is the Great Tribulation worst ever. 5^th in chronological order.

Matthew 24:29 1st tribulation is in 1st three & half years of the End Times Events. 3^rd in chronological order.

Matthew 24:32-34 Israel is fig tree that is sign of soon coming of End Times. 2^nd in chronological order.

WHILE: People live their lives as if nothing is going to change.

The rest of the Church is raptured (not Overcomers who have already been raptured). The Genesis 37:9 Jacob(sun)/Rachel(moon)/eleven stars bow down to Joseph scripture does not match the symbols in Revelation 12:1 sun/moon under her feet/on head 12 stars. The position of symbols is wrong & is not a symbol of Israel. The Woman is the Church which came out of Israel. The foundation is Jesus as source of light (sun). The Church reflected the light (as a moon). The Church came out of Judaism (the 12 stars) & has the Bible written by Jews as its guide.

Genesis 37:9 Compared to Revelation 12 they are different.

2 Thessalonians 1:5-12 God raptures the weak Church who is punished/suffering with 42 months of tribulation to count them worthy of kingdom of God

Revelation 12:1, 6 Woman is protected & leaves.

Revelation 12:13-16 Church is feed/protected for 42 months then leaves

WAIT: God uses 144,000 Jewish man to lead many Jews and Gentiles to the Lord during the End Times.

Revelation 7:3-8 Protected

DIFFERENT DOCTRINES BUT LOVE IN JESUS:

The study of End Time Events & the rapture, in particular, are emotional issues. Each person has to settle these things in their own heart & mind. Let us remain as "Christian brothers and sisters" with a difference of opinion on End Time Doctrines. This study was done with input from my brothers in the Lord. I differ in some of the things I believe, but love my brothers in the Lord.

MESSAGE TO THE SEVEN CHURCHES

Revelation Chapter 4) Overcomer Type Christian Rapture to Start Tribulation Which Shall Be Hereafter: {Revelation 4:1-2 on 22:21}

Revelation 4:1-2 on 22:21

End Times-Day of the Lord: Eschatology; about 7,000^th year after Adam's creation; End Times; Daniel 70^th week; Day of the Lord is one of two times period events in End Times.

Some raptures are for visions, some for ministry, some are for rewards, and others are for punishments.

Tribulation Purpose: To bring Israel and Jewish people to the place that they recognize Jesus as their Messiah (Christ). To judge the Gentile nations and people for their sins against God (rejecting the gospel) and the Jewish people (exterminating Israel).

II) STUDY BUT CONCLUSION NOT KNOWN:

The word of God is not always clear on End Time prophecies issues. God sometimes hides some truths until a later time.

SCRIPTURES FULFILLED:

Daniel 12:4, 9 For more than 2,500 years.

Revelation 10:4 Within The End Time Events period, truths are hidden.

III) END TIME ASSUMPTIONS:

My paper and most other papers on the End Times must make assumptions in writing the papers. I start with the requirement that most of the End Times scriptures must be discussed & shown in the teaching (this is different than most every other rapture writers). Some of these scriptures could be used for several End Times Events. Which event the scriptures are used for is not always clear. Some of the End Time Event scriptures do not occur in chronological order. My paper uses Revelation as the key book to show God's future End Times Events and includes multiple raptures such as: Overcomers (Man-Child) He, Elect believers {2 Thessalonians 2:6-9; Revelation 12:1-5}, John 3:16 believing Church {Revelation 12:1, 6, 13-17}, 144,000 Jewish missionaries {Revelation 7:3-8, 14:4-5}, Tribulation-Saints {Revelation 12:17}, Post-Tribulation Pre-Wrath {Revelation 7:9-17}, 2 Witnesses {Revelation 11:3-12}, Jesus 2nd coming for believers (Jews/Gentiles) { 1 Corinthians 15:50-53; 1 Thessalonians 4:14-18; Revelation 19:7-8}, Armageddon unbelievers {Matthew 13:30, 39-43, 49}, After millennium 1,000 years believers {Revelation 20:5-6}, & final war raptures {Revelation 20:7-9}.

There are six views on the rapture:

A) Multiple raptures or parial rapture (my view). The only view that support the many scriptures on raptures.

B) Pre-Tribulation rapture (Church is raptured before the Tribulation begins). General Church teaching has the purpose of the Tribulation is to punish the ungodly, the Church can not go through the Tribulation. There are a few scriptures that teach this rapture. This view does not address the many scriptures on raptures. I believe this is one of the raptures as shown in my paper. (See sections IV-VII for more information on this rapture).

C) Mid-Tribulation rapture (Church is raptured between the Tribulation and Great Tribulation periods). General Church teaching has the purpose of the Tribulation is to punish the ungodly, the Church can not go through the Tribulation. There are a few scriptures that teach this rapture. This view does not address the many scriptures on raptures. I believe this is one of the raptures as shown in my paper. (See sections IV & XIX for more information on this rapture).

D) Pre-Wrath-Post-Tribulation rapture (Church is raptured near the end of the Great Tribulation period). General Church teaching has the purpose of the Tribulation is to punish the ungodly, the Church can not go through the Tribulation. There are a few scriptures that teach this rapture. This view does not address the many scriptures on raptures. I believe this is one of the raptures as shown in my paper. (See sections IX, XX & XXIV for more information on this rapture).

E) Post-Tribulation rapture (Church is raptured after the Great Tribulation ends). General Church teaching has the purpose of the Tribulation is to punish the ungodly, the Church can not go through the Tribulation. There are a few scriptures that teach this rapture. This view does not address the many scriptures on raptures. I believe this is one of the raptures as shown in my paper. (See sections XXVIII & XXXI for more information on this rapture).

F) No rapture General Church teaching has the purpose of the Tribulation is to punish the ungodly, the Church can not go through the Tribulation. This view does not address the many scriptures on raptures.

SCRIPTURES FULFILLED:

Revelation 1:19 The seven churches extend to seven time periods and in each time period the seven churches exist even to our present day. Revelation 2 & 3 shows the Overcomers.

Revelation 4:1 This is a type for rapture. The Man-Child (Revelation chapter 12) or Overcomers (Revelation Chapters 2-3) are Pre-Tribulation-raptured.

IV) REVELATION CHAPTER 12 THREE GROUPS OF BELIEVERS RAPTURES:

The Prophet John wrote Revelation about 90-96 AD. This paper addresses multiple raptures. From the Revelation 12 viewpoint, this starts with these three believers groups: Man-Child (Elected Overcomers on fire Christians), Woman (John 3:16 Church), & Remnant of the Woman's Seed (Tribulation and Great Tribulation Jewish and Gentiles Believers).

The Man-Child is the Elect Overcomer Christians who are living in the deeper things of God. God rewards them by caughting (rapture) them up unto God and His throne. The Overcomers of the churches will rule 1,000 years with Christ (with a rod of iron) when Jesus is on His Jerusalem New Temple, earthly throne. In no other scripture period of time do we see the Revelation Chapter 2-3 Overcomers scripture promises fulfilled.

The Woman does not match Israel scripture (Genesis 37:9) wording or type. I assumed the Woman to be the Church with a John 3:16 salvation message only. She has not gone into any of the deeper things of God. During the Tribulation she is cared for by God, but goes through half the End Times period before being Mid-Tribulation raptured. The Woman – John 3:16 Church goes through 1260 days of Tribulation. The Church delievered the Elected of fire Man-child who is Pre-Tribulation raptured. This group is protected and supplied by God for 1260 days even from attacks by Satan before she is raptured.

The remnant of the Woman's Seed goes through much of the End Times Events and is the Jewish & Gentile Tribulation Christians being saved through the ministry efforts of the two witnesses and 144,000 Jewish believers.

SCRIPTURES FULFILLED:

Genesis 37:9 Does not compare with Revelation 12:1 A woman clothed with the sun, and the moon under her feet, and upon her head a crown of twelve stars.

1) Ephesus: Revelation 2:7

2) Smyrna: Revelation 2:11

3) Pergamos: Revelation 2:17

4) Thyatira: Revelation 2:26-28

5) Sardis: Revelation 3:5

6) Philadelphia: Revelation 3:12-14

7) Laodiceans: Revelation 3:21

Revelation 6:9-11 The remnant of the Woman's Seed goes through much of the End Times Events and is the Jewish & Gentile Tribulation Christians.

Revelation 7:14-17 The remnant of the Woman's Seed dying in Tribulation.

Revelation 12:1-3, 5-6, 11, 13-17

V) MAN-CHILD:

The Man-Child can't be Jesus since this is in a future period after 90AD when John wrote Revelation. Jesus lived to about 33AD.

The End Times people who rule with a rod of iron scripture applies to Jesus and the Overcomers. The Man-Child is fulfilled by the Overcomers who are caught up to God and His throne & rule together.

SCRIPTURES FULFILLED:

Isaiah 66:7-8

Revelation 2:25-27 Man-Child is fulfilled by the Overcomers who come back to rule with Jesus.

Revelation 12:5-6 Jesus (is not the Man- Child). Overcomer's fulfill this, but Jesus did not come out of church as he came by Jewish parents, Mary and Holy Spirit then Joseph.

VI) PRE-TRIBULATION-RAPTURE:

Overcomer Christians caught up from going through the Tribulation period. They will return later with Christ to rule with Him for the 1,000 years.

SCRIPTURES FULFILLED: See Overcomer in: 1 John 5:4, Revelation: 2:7, 2:17, 3:5, 3:12, 21:7

Revelation 3:21 The Overcomers' will rule with Jesus.

Revelation 12:11 Their life is centered on Jesus.

Revelation 19:13-15 Overcomer's (who are Pre-Tribulation raptured and return with Jesus) rules with iron rod.

VII) WHY DOES GOD REMOVE THESE OVERCOMER CHRISTIANS?

The Overcomer is set apart from the evil & temptations to come because they are a part of the elect who are worthy to escape God's wrath because they lived a godly/righteous life, prayed, & kept the word of God in patience.

SCRIPTURES FULFILLED:

Psalms 4:3 Set apart godly men, Overcomers, who live a godly life.

Isaiah 57:1 Take away men.

Luke 21:36 Escape Tribulation.

1 Thessalonians 1:10 Wait for Jesus to deliver us from wrath in End Times.

1 Thessalonians 5:9-10 Jesus saved us so that we be forever with Him starting from our earth existence.

2 Peter 2:9 Deliver Overcomers before Tribulations.

Revelation 3:10 God will keep Overcomers from temptation because they live in the deeper things of God.

VIII) END TIMES EVENTS BEGIN:

The rapture of the Overcomers: Man-Child - the "He" is taken out of the earth which starts the End Times Events? The Church is referred to as the body of Christ who is male.

SCRIPTURES FULFILLED:

1 Corinthians 12:3 The Holy Spirit can not be the HE since if He is removed no one can call Jesus Lord. This is a clear Pre-Tribulaion-rapture scripture of the He (group) to be taken out of the way not being the Holy Spirit. He can not be Holy Spirit or no one could be saved after He is removed.

Ephesians 1:22-23 The Church is referred to as a male (Jesus) and can be the He.

2 Thessalonians 1:10-12, 2:1

2 Thessalonians 2:6-9 He is the Overcomers Elect who when they are raptured will allow the Anti-christ to come and start the Daniel 9:24-27 70^th week, 1^st half 3&1/2 years, End Times events.

IX) END TIME EVENTS HAS A BEGINNING OF SORROWS/1^st - 3 & ½ YEARS TRIBULATION/2^nd - 3 & ½ YEARS GREAT TRIBULATION:

The Matthew 24 scriptures are not in chronological order of time. The events of Matthew 24/Luke 21/Mark 13 are as follows: The beginning of sorrows period {Matthew 24:7-8} of wars and earth pestilences. The fig tree {Matthew 24:32-34} is a sign of of near start of End Times. The End Times has a 3&½ years periods for Tribulation {Matthew 24:29}. The first Tribulation 3&1/2 years has 2 sets of 7's - God's judgments (7 Seals) {Revelation 5-6} and (7 Trumpets) {Revelation 8}. The abomination of desolation {Matthew 24:15} starts the 2^nd 3&1/2 years Great Tribulation {Matthew 24:21}. The second Great Tribulation has (7 Vials/Bowls) {Revelation 16}. God wrath on evil has many people killed (During the fourth seal ¼ of earth's people will be destroyed) (See section XVI) {Revelation 6:7-8}. God's wrath in Great Tribulation 2nd 3 & ½ years, has more than 1 billion people die. Over ½ earth's people die {Revelation 16:1-4}. God will rapture His people out of some of those punishments (See section XIX) and have His witnesses proclaim the gospel to saved many (See sections XIV & XV) {Revelation 7:3, 11:3-12, 14:6-11}. Antti-christ loses war to Jesus and is sent to lake of fire (See section XXX). God will rapture evil people from the earth (See section XXXI). Jesus will be king over the earth for 1,000 years (See section XXXII). God will resurrect both good and evil people (See section XXXVIII). Several judgments nations (See section XLI), of peoples (See section XLII), and evil people will occur (See section XLIII) before God destroys this heaven and earth (See section XLIV) and creates a new heaven and earth (See section XLV).

For those who assumed Matthew 24/Mark 13 scriptures are in chronological order, I have included this in my paper (See section XX). Pre-Wrath-Rapture Christians believe the Tribulation is the full Daniel 9:27 week or 7 years period. The first 3&1/2 years being the Beginning of Sorrows. They have the Great Tribulation being part of the last 3&1/2 years period and the Day of the Lord being the other part. The abominantion of desolation {Matthew 24:15/Mark 13:14/Luke 21:20} starts the 2^nd 3&1/2 years period. What follows in the Great Tribulation is the sun/moon.stars becoming dark and Jesus returned in the clouds with angels gathering the elect for rapture {Matthew 24:31/Mark 13:27/Luke 21:27} (See section XXIII Pre-Wrath-Rapture). Luke 21 does not include the word Tribultion or Great Tribultation but uses days of vengence. All of this is assumed by making the Matthew 24/Mark 13 scriptures in chronological order. The Fig Tree parable {Matthew 24:32/Mark 13:38/Luke 21:29} is however not in chronological order here. I assumed an out of chronological order {Matthew 24/Mark 13/Luke 21} scriptures assumptions (See section XVI here). This approach, has a single rapture. If you study my paper, with most End Times scriptures, you can not agree with this single rapture during the 2^nd 3&1/2 yreas. I believe this is one of the raptures as shown in my paper.

SCRIPTURES FULFILLED:

Daniel 9:24-27

Habakkuk 3:17 Fig tree is Bible type picture of Israel which here is a failure, but rejoices in God nonetheless.

Revelation 7:14 This is only reference to either Tribulation or Great Tribulation time period in the book of Revelation. The Great Tribulation is the last part of the three & half years of the End Times Events.

Revelation 12:1, 6, 13

X) RETURN OF CHRIST WILL COME AS A THIEF (NO MAN KNOWS THE DAY OR TIME):

These scriptures show the imminent return of the Lord. Jesus could return any time. We are to be always ready & love His appearing which will be soon. This could occur for us by death or rapture. His return will sometimes be seen only by the raptured people until his second coming which will be seen by everyone (See section XXVII). Some of these scriptures shows the multiple raptures and not Jesus 2^nd coming. No future event was needed but the Jews return to the land of Israel which God established in a day in 1948.

SCRIPTURES FULFILLED:

Isaiah 66:8 Israel in 1948 became a nation again after some 2,500 years in a one day vote at UN.

2 Peter 3:3-4 Until Jesus comes.

Revelation 3:3 Warning in church age to be prepared.

Revelation 16:15 Warning in Day of the Lord to be ready.

XI) TEN MEMBER CONFEDERATION FORMS & ANTI-CHRIST BECOMES LEADER:

The Anti-christ on the rise to power is one of the kings as head of the ten kingdoms by Satan power {Revelation 13:1-4} at the start of the Tribulation. The first Tribulation 3&½ years has 2 sets of 7's - God's judgments (7 Seals) {Revelation 5-6} and (7 Trumpets) {Revelation 8}. During the fourth seal ¼ of earth's people will be destroyed {Revelation 6:8}. The Anti-christ kills many believers (Revelation 6:9-11). At the sixth seal {Revelation 6:12-13}, the sun becomes black, moon like blood, and stars fall. Many people hide from the wrath of the Lamb {Revelation 6:15-16}. The trumpet judgments has 1/3 of earth burn, 1/3 of people killed by demon armies, and 1/3 (of sun, moon, and stars) darkened {Revelation 8:9-12}. Satan has the ten kings give their power to the beast or Anti-christ (See section XVII) {Revelation 17:1-17}. They fight again Jesus who overcomes them (See section XXVII) {Revelation 17:14}.

SCRIPTURES FULFILLED:

Daniel 7:20, 24

Revelation 13:1-2 Beast=Anti-christ get power from the dragon, Satan; sea=nations or 10 kingdoms

Revelation 17:12-13, 16-17 The Beast is the Anti-christ who destroys the whore harlot or religious fake church system.

XII) ISRAEL MAKES A COVENANT WITH THE ANTI-CHRIST:

At the beginning of the 1^st Tribulation period, Israel makes a covenant with the Anti-christ who allows Israel to rebuild her temple and start the sacrifices. After 3&1/2 years, the Anti-christ brakes the covenant by sacrificing the abomination of desolation (See section XVIII) in the Jewish temple of an image of himself and stops the sacrifices.

SCRIPTURES FULFILLED:

Daniel 9:27 "And he shall confirm the covenant with many for one week: and in the midst of the week he shall cause the sacrifice and the oblation to cease, and for the overspreading of abominations he shall make it desolate, even until the consummation, and that determined shall be poured upon the desolate." Anti-christ stops Israel's sacrifice & offers them to himself within the temple.

XIII) ISRAEL BUILDS HER TEMPLE AND OFFERS SACRIFICES:

Israel, builds her temple & starts offering sacrifices during the 1^st Tribulation – 3&1/2 years. Anti-christ ends sacrifice after 1^st Tribulation – 3&1/2 years and claims to be god (the abomination that maketh desolate) within the Jewish temple.

SCRIPTURES FULFILLED:

Daniel 11:31

Daniel 12:9-12 Concealed to the End Times.

Zechariah 1:16

Matthew 24:1-3 Mark 13:1, Luke 21:5

Mark 13:14 (Also Matthew 24:15)

2 Thessalonians 2:3-4 Before the anti-christ comes, there will be a falling away of co-called Christians. This occurred because the Elect Msn-Child was raptured and these people remain.

Revelation 11:2

XIV) 144,000 JEWISH MISSIONARIES:

Near the end of the 1^st Tribulation – 3&1/2 years, God uses 144,000 Jewish man, twelve thousand from twelve different tribes, who are protected by God, to lead many Jews and Gentiles (Woman remnant of her seed) (See section IX) {Revelation 12:17} to the Lord during the End Times. They preach and witness righteousness for some of the Tribulation and Great Tribulation periods and then are raptured with many believers to God. These 144,000 are raptured to heaven (See section XXIII) {Revelation 14:1-7} and are blesses by God for their ministry to Jews and Gentiles.

SCRIPTURES FULFILLED:

Revelation 7:3-8 Protected

Revelation 12:17

Revelation 14:1-7 The 144,000 are raptured to heaven and blessed by God for their ministry to the woman remnant of her seed {Revelation 12:17}

XV) THE TWO WITNESSES PROPHESY FOR 42 MONTHS:

The two witnesses have been suggested to be Enoch and Elijah because they never died. It is also possible that they are Elijah and Moses because of their signs and powers of: fire, stopping rain from occurring, water turned to blood, and smiting the earth with all plagues. Whoever they are, God uses them as His witnesses and prophets for 42 months in Jerusalem. Many people receive their prophecy and repent, but most people rejected their witness and prophecies. In the end, the resurrection and rapture are shown for these two (See section XXIV).

SCRIPTURES FULFILLED:

Revelation 11:3-8 Jerusalem

XVI) 1 BILLION PEOPLE DIE AT 6th SEAL OPENING IN 1^st 3 & 1/2 YEARS TRIBULATION:

Both the 1st 42 months Tribulation period & 2nd 42 months Great Tribulation period have a very large number of people die in judgment. God's judgment at the End Times includes the sun, moon, & stars turning dark: 1^st Tribulation 6^th seal {Revelation 6:12-17}. Two other End Times are shown where (See sections XXIII and XLIV) God turns the sun, moon, & stars dark. Sinners, in this first Tribulation period, will want to escape God's wrath and die, but God will not let them escape His punishment. The sun, moon, & stars turning dark are signs of God calling out of Tribulation, by raptures, of God's Jewish and Gentiles (See section XXIV 2 Witnesses) Tribulation saints.

SCRIPTURES FULFILLED:

Isaiah 2:19-21

Luke 23:30 1/4 of earth's peoples die.

Revelation 6:12, 15-17 The both Tribulation periods have billions of people die, followed by cosmic disturbances that produce fear in sinners that they want to die rather than face Jesus wrath in the day of Christ.

Revelation 9:6

XVII) ANTI-CHRIST DIES & COMES BACK TO LIFE:

After the Anti-christ dies from a head wound, Satan heals the Anti-christ's deadly wound. This puts fear into other kings of 10 kingdoms.

SCRIPTURES FULFILLED:

Revelation 13:3-5 42 months of this power after the Anti-christ become leader of 10 kingdoms.

Revelation 13:11-12 This is the False Prophet who is the 2nd part of Satan's triune or spirit of triune Satan who promotes the Anti-christ to be worshiped by the nations.

XVIII) ABOMINATION OF DESOLATION STANDING IN THE HOLY PLACE:

The Abomination (image of Anti-christ) of Desolation, with the rapture of the Church (woman of Revelation 12, John 3:16) starts the 2nd 42 months period of the Great Tribulation. The Anti-christ brakes his covenant with Israel, stops the Israel sacrifices to God, offers sacrifices to himself, making an image of himself, and sets up his kingdom from Jerusalem temple.

SCRIPTURES FULFILLED:

Daniel 9:27 Anti-christ stops Israel's sacrifice & offers one to himself in temple.

Daniel 11:31

Daniel 12:9-12 Concealed to the End Times.

Matthew 24:15 Starts 2nd Great Tribulation.

Mark 13:14-16 When sign occurs, run to mountains.

2 Thessalonians 2:4 Fake god.

Revelation 11:1-2 Temple taken over by anti-christ starts Great Tribulation.

XIX) MID-TRIBULATION-RAPTURE:

The John 3:16 believer's Church is raptured (Overcomers have already been raptured). Jacob(sun)/Rachel(moon)/eleven stars(brothers) bow down to Joseph {Genesis 37:9} scripture does not match the symbols in woman clothed with sun/moon under feet/on head crown with 12 stars {Revelation 12:1, 6}. The symbols are different then those for Israel. I believe the woman is the John 3:16 Church which came out of Israel. The foundation is Jesus as source of light (sun). The Church reflected the light (as a moon). The Church came out of Judaism (the 12 stars) and has the Bible written by Jews as its guide.

SCRIPTURES FULFILLED:

Genesis 37:9 Compared to Revelation 12:1 they are different prophecies events.

1 Corinthians 15:51-52 Some will never die while others will be raise. The John 3:16 believer's Church is raptured and meets the dead Christians with Jesus in the clouds.

1 Thessalonians 4:13-18 Asleep means dead. The dead in Christ are resurrected or raptured first. The John 3:16 believer's Church is raptured and meets the dead Christians with Jesus in the clouds.

2 Thessalonians 1:5-12 God raptures the John 3:16 Church who goes through the 42 months of tribulation to count them worthy of kingdom of God.

Revelation 12:1, 6 Woman is protected And feed by God during the 42 months of 1^st Tribulation.

Revelation 12:13-16 Church is feed and protected for 42 months before being raptured

XX) 2^nd 3 & ½ YEARS GREAT TRIBULATION:

The second 3&½ years periods for Great Tribulation has (7 Vials/Bowls) {Revelation 16} judgments on the earth. God's wrath in Great Tribulation 2nd 3&½ years, has more than 1 billion people die. Over ½ earth's people die {Revelation 16:1-4}.

Pre-Wrath-Rapture Christians believe the Tribulation is the full Daniel 9:27 week or 7 years period with the Great Tribulation being the last 3&1/2 years period. The abominantion of desolation {Matthew 24:15/Mark 13:14/Luke 21:20} starts the 2^nd 3&1/2 years period. What follows in the Great Tribulation is the sun/moon.stars becoming dark and Jesus returned in the clouds with angels gathering the elect for rapture {Matthew 24:31/Mark 13:27/Luke 21:27} (See section XXIV Pre-Wrath-Rapture). Luke 21 does not include the word Tribultion or Great Tribultation but uses days of vengence. All of this is assumed by making the Matthew 24/Mark 13 scriptures in chronological order. The Fig Tree parable {Matthew 24:32/Mark 13:38/Luke 21:29} is however not in chronological order here. I assumed an out of chronological order {Matthew 24/Mark 13/Luke 21} scriptures assumptions (See section XVI).

The Pre-Wrath-Rapture approach, has a single rapture. If you study my paper, with most End Times scriptures, you can not agree with only this single rapture at the 2^nd 3&1/2 years. I believe this is one of the raptures as shown in my paper.

SCRIPTURES FULFILLED:

Matthew 24:21 Last 3&1/2 years period is the Great Tribulation where God's wrath is worst than any other period. This is found in Mark 13:19.

Matthew 24:29 Some people believe this to be part of the 2^nd 3&1/2 years Tribulation. This is found in Mark 13:24-25.

Mark 13:19 This is found in Matthew 24:21.

Mark 13:24-25 Some Christians believe this to be the 2^nd 3&1/2 years Great Tribulation. This is found in Matthew 24:29.

Luke 21:22

Romans 1:18 Jesus, truth, is the only one who is righteous.

Revelation 16:1, 3 Great Tribulation has God's wrath .poured out on earth.

XXI) ANTI-CHRIST KILLS MANY SAINTS:

Many saints are saved as result of the 144,000 & 2 witnesses evangelistic ministries. Anti-christ brakes Israel covenant & destroys Jerusalem with both (unbelievering Jews & believering Gentiles & Jews)

SCRIPTURES FULFILLED:

Revelation 20:4

XXII) ANTI-CHRIST AND HIS PROPHET CAUSE PEOPLE TO TAKE 666 MARK:

The Anti-christ, False Prophet, & Satan work to control all people during Great Tribulation period. No one can buy or sell without the 666 mark. God warns that having the mark means judgment.

SCRIPTURES FULFILLED:

Revelation 13:11-13 The unholy three are Anti-christ, False Prophet, & Satan are a counterfeit for the true Triune Godhead of Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.

Revelation 13:16-18 Anti-christ number is 666 needed to buy & sell.

Revelation 14:9-10 God warns not to take 666 number or be judged.

XXIII) PRE-WRATH-RAPTURE:

There are raptures of 144,000 Jewish men with many other Jewish and Gentile saints; However, other saints will be killed. This event occurs near the end of the 2nd 3&1/2 years Great Tribulation period before the Day of the Lord (God's worst wrath) when all Israel will be saved. There are three judgment periods that the End Times scriptures has the sun, moon, & stars turn dark: 1^st Tribulation 6^th seal {Revelation 6:12-17} (See section XVI), 2^nd Great Tribulation/Day of the Lord at end {Revelation 14:1-5; Isaiah 13:9-10} (See section XXIII here), and when God destroys the Old Earth and Heavens/God creates a New Heavens and Earth {2 Peter 3:7, 10-13}; {Revelation 21:1-5} (See section XLIV).

They preach and witness righteousness for some of the Tribulation and Great Tribulation periods and then are raptured with many believers to God.

XXIV) TWO WITNESSES ARE KILLED, RESURRECTED, & RAPTURED:

The two witnesses are killed by Anti-christ and their dead bodies are left in the street for 3&1/2 days. The people rejoice because they were torment by the two witnesses' preaching and power. The two witnesses are used by God to bring a number of Jews & Gentiles to Christ. The two witnesses and some saved people are called to heaven in a rapture. Who maybe are these two witnesses is discussed earlier (See section XV).

SCRIPTURES FULFILLED:

XXV) ARMAGEDDON WAR:

Armageddon is the place where this war will occurred. It is in a large valley (Valley of Jezreel and Jehoshaphat meaning Yahweh judges) near Megiddo in Israel. The Anti-christ soldiers will fight against the East and North armies in Israel killing many Jews who will call out to God for help. Christ will return (His second coming. See Section XXVII) and defect the Anti-christ with the end result that all Israel will be saved (See section XXVIII). This war has the nations having a goal of destroying Israel and the Jewish people. God judges the nation (See section XLI) and the peoples fighting in Israel and the Jewish people (See section XLII).
