When is the Tribulation and When Does Jesus Return?

[Churchwork]

Before the Tribulation - the great and terrible day of the Lord (Joel 2.31) - Revelation 6.12 reads, "And I beheld when he had opened the sixth seal, and, lo, there was a (1) great earthquake; and (2) the sun became black as sackcloth of hair, and (3) the moon became as blood."

(1) 320,000 people died in the great earthquake in Haiti in 2010 - the 2nd most deaths of any earthquake on planet earth in human record. Then in 2011 Japan experienced a 9.0 magnitude earthquake - the 4th greatest ever produced anywhere on earth in human record. Combined these two earthquakes of such intensity back to back - year over year - have never happened before, nor will happen ever again!

(2) There are 4 kinds of solar eclipses. The 4th type a Hybrid is the rarest occurring 5% of the time according to NASA. Of that 5% there are 3 kinds of Hybrids. The rarest is the H3 and is even more rare when it is the long version lasting more than 1 min 30 sec. The 4th one since Christ was Nov. 3, 2013 and won't happen again till 2172.

(3) The Total Lunar Tetrad on Passover and Tabernacles over 2 years in 2014/15 is the 8th time this has occurred since Christ. It won't happen again till 2582/83. Incidentally, there is no unique solar eclipse attached to the 9th feast Tetrad, and it's impossible a great earthquake as well.

There you have it: like concentric circles smaller and smaller around a bull's eye. The 6th Tetrad brought about Israel a nation again after 2500 years, the 7th Tetrad the recapture of Jerusalem, and the 8th Tetrad tells us of when the 3rd Temple construction begins. Once the construction begins we know when the Tribulation takes place, because there will be 2300 days left (Dan. 8.14) for the cleansing of the Temple from Passover to Tisha B'Av. Then Jesus steps down on the mount of olives (Zech. 14.4, Acts 1.11, Rev. 1.7).

Daniel's final seven is 2,520 days like all the other sevens in Dan. 9.24-27. 2,520 is the smallest number divisible by numbers 2 to 10. In addition to the 1260 days of the second half of the Tribulation there is 30 days more to the Day of Atonement to the 1290th day (Dan. 12.11) for Jesus to judge the nations.

There are exactly 2,550 days from feast of Trumpets Sept. 26, 2022 to Day of Atonement Sept. 19, 2029. Incidentally the sign of the Son of Man (Matt. 24.30) is Apophis Apr. 13, 2029.

What is vitally important about all this is that if you though saved having received Christ into your life do not keep the word of His patience, are not prayerful and watchful (Rev. 3.10, Luke 21.36, Matt. 24.40-42) you will not escape the hour of trial that is to come upon the whole world to be raptured at the start of the Tribulation on Sept. 26, 2022 Feast of Trumpets. Therefore, you will enter the Tribulation and if still do not overcometh by the end of the Tribulation then you will not receive the reward of returning with Christ (Jude 14,15; Rev. 2.26,27, 20.4-6) to reign over the nations with a rod of iron.

You can see how God is giving you not only the choice to accept Christ but to be a carnal or spiritual Christian.

Praise the Lord for this discernment! Amen.

There have been many who came up with a date and the day went by without anything happening.

What you can be confident in is this is the time. Perhaps someone can be off a couple of years or months or days, but the general time period is undeniable. People have been wrong before because they jumped ahead of Rev. 6.12 in 2010/15. You can't jump ahead of the construction of the 3rd Temple either which is completed with 2300 days left to the Tribulation's end. Therefore, the 3rd Temple must be completed by Passover 2023.

I want to impress upon you this fact. In the year 2582/83 there is no unique solar eclipse attached to the feast Tetrad at that time. So we know Rev. 6.12 is the 2010-2015 period. This is a fact beyond reproach. Stay with me here on this point and consider further the fact that Matt. 24.32,33 says the return of Jesus is right at the door when Israel becomes a nation again.

What constitutes right at the door? At the outside Ps. 90.10 says a lifetime is 70 to 80 years. 80 + 1948 = 2028. Apophis is definitely the sign of the Son of Man Apr. 13, 2029 in Matt. 24.30.

The story of Joseph may predict a seven year period of abundance given to prepare for the Tribulation.

Joseph was told that there would be seven years of abundance to prepare Egypt for the seven years of famine that would follow. Genesis 41.25-49 (http://biblia.com/bible/asv/Genesis%2041.25-49). This may be a prophetic type of a seven year period of abundance that will precede the Tribulation as a time for the Church and Israel to prepare. This principal of Divine warning to make preparation for a specified period of tribulation is seen in other Biblical examples:


Noah was warned to prepare food and enter the ark 7 days before the flood began.
Rahab was warned 7 days before the battle of Jericho and so made plans to safeguard her family. She was taken out by the two spies after the 7th trumpet on the 7th day.
Israel was warned to prepare provisions 7 days before they crossed the Jordan to Jericho.
Elisha warned the Shunamite woman about the 7 year famine that was about to occur.
Israel was promised abundant crops before the land was rested on the Sabbatical Year.


Therefore, there is a 7 year preparatory period from 2015 to 2022. There is, in fact, 2520 days from Feast of Trumpets Sept. 14, 2015 to Tisha B'Av Aug. 7, 2022 when the 1st and 2nd Temples were destroyed. That leads us into the 2550 days from Feast of Trumpets Sept. 26, 2022 to Day of Atonement Sept. 19, 2029 which is 30 days more to the 1290th day.

There are 30 days more from the 1260th to the 1290th day for Jesus to judge the nations (Matt. 25.31-46). Then 45 days more to the 1335th day for Jesus to set up Israel as the center of all nations.
