As explained in the previous post the destruction of the Whore of Babylon will happen at mid-tribulation. It will be a fast-paced process as it is said in (Rev 17:12-13) “[12] And the ten horns which thou sawest are ten kings, which have received no kingdom as yet; but receive power as kings one hour with the beast [13] These have one mind, and shall give their power and strength unto the beast.” KJV.
The Kings will receive power for one hour only and then they will give it to the beast. Because of these conditions, I believe all these will happen very fast. The destruction of the Whore, the Kings getting their power and giving it to the beast, and immediately after that, (Rev 11:7) “And when they shall have finished their testimony, the beast that ascendeth out of the bottomless pit shall make war against them, and shall overcome them, and kill them.” KJV. The beast will kill the two witnesses when their testimony is finished which happens 1260 days after the start of the tribulation (Rev 11:3).
This is exactly mid-tribulation. This is when the Whore (US) should be destroyed by the ten Kings. Everything changes after that. The beast will resurrect, (Rev 13:3) “And I saw one of his heads as it were wounded to death; and his deadly wound was healed: and all the world wondered after the beast.” KJV. And the Beast or Antichrist will be in power for three and a half years until the end of the tribulation (Rev 13:5) “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.” KJV.
This is when the mark of the beast will appear, once the Antichrist takes control of the world and declares himself god in the temple after killing the two witnesses (Mat 24:15-16) “[15] 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:) [16] Then let them which be in Judaea flee into the mountains:” KJV. Here JESUS is describing the start of the great tribulation, as it is said here it will affect the Jews, because the Christians are either dead or raptured, the Christians will not deal with the Beast that comes out of the pit, they will only deal with the Noahide laws.
For this to happen the third Jewish temple has to be built, and as the Bible said it in the Old Testament, this can only happen if Israel is in full control of their environment having wars with no one (King Solomon’s time), or when the leading Civilization of the world allows them to do it (King Cyrus’ time). This world leader will be the US, they will allow Israel to build its temple, probably by dividing the land with Palestine.
(Dan 12:11) “And from the time that the daily sacrifice shall be taken away, and the abomination that maketh desolate set up, there shall be a thousand two hundred and ninety days.” KJV. This verse does not refer to the “daily sacrifice” in the temple of the Jews, the word sacrifice is not part of the text; this refers to the daily evangelization that the Christians do as explained in (Rom 12:1) “I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that ye present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto God, which is your reasonable service.” KJV.
The Christian service of evangelization is going to be forbidden from the start of the construction of the temple. The Noahide Laws will be the law of the land then, The Whore of Babylon will be the leading civilization, and Christianity will go into hiding.
Since the ministry of the two witnesses lasts 1260 days and the time that the “daily” is banned until the Antichrist declares himself god in the temple of the Jews is 1290 days, then the construction of the temple will last about thirty days. It is only during this period, after the temple is built, that the Jews will be allowed to sacrifice animals in their temple, how could the daily sacrifice be taken away before that or during that? It could not; the daily sacrifice refers to the Christians who at that time will be persecuted by the Whore of Babylon being not allowed to evangelize anymore.
(Dan 7:20-21) “[20] And of the ten horns that were in his head, and of the other which came up, and before whom three fell; even of that horn that had eyes, and a mouth that spake very great things, whose look was more stout than his fellows. [21] I beheld, and the same horn made war with the saints, and prevailed against them;” KJV. These saints are the Jews that have realized their mistake and have fled to the wilderness accepting JESUS as LORD, they are the only ones that are capable to repent and return to the LORD, the time of the gentiles has ended; (2 Thes 2:8-12) “[8] And then shall that Wicked be revealed, whom the Lord shall consume with the spirit of his mouth, and shall destroy with the brightness of his coming: [9] Even him, whose coming is after the working of Satan with all power and signs and lying wonders, [10] And with all deceivableness of unrighteousness in them that perish; because they received not the love of the truth, that they might be saved. [11] And for this cause God shall send them strong delusion, that they should believe a lie: [12] That they all might be damned who believed not the truth, but had pleasure in unrighteousness.” KJV. Once the Antichrist reveals himself the gentiles will no longer be able to repent.
Another witness that all these happens at mid-tribulation appears in (Rev 12:12-14), “[12] Therefore rejoice, ye heavens, and ye that dwell in them. Woe to the inhabiters of the earth and of the sea! for the devil is come down unto you, having great wrath, because he knoweth that he hath but a short time. [13] And when the dragon saw that he was cast unto the earth, he persecuted the woman which brought forth the man child. [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.” KJV.
This is mid-tribulation; Israel has to escape to the wilderness for three and a half years, which is all the time the Devil, the Antichrist, and the false prophet have left until their complete destruction. Notice that Israel has witnessed the Man Child being taken up to heaven. Israel now knows of the horrible mistake they made for not accepting JESUS as their messiah.
All these are part of the events of the sixth seal and sixth trumpet which happen simultaneously, proving that the seals and the trumpets are parallel events. Please see the seals, the trumpets and the bowls, and the seals, the trumpets and the bowls part two, for more details.
(Rev 6:12-14) “[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.” KJV.
These events also happened during JESUS’ crucifixion, (Mat 27:45) “Now from the sixth hour there was darkness over all the land unto the ninth hour.” KJV. Which represents the sun turning into darkness. (Mat 27:51) “And, behold, the veil of the temple was rent in twain from the top to the bottom; and the earth did quake, and the rocks rent;” KJV. In this verse we have the great earthquake and heaven departing as a scroll, those alive will be able to see JESUS sitting at the right hand of the FATHER. Finally, in (Mat 27:52-53) “[52] And the graves were opened; and many bodies of the saints which slept arose, [53] And came out of the graves after his resurrection, and went into the holy city, and appeared unto many.” KJV. These verses represent the rapture resurrection and the three days of darkness and matches (Rev 11:8) “And their dead bodies shall lie in the street of the great city, which spiritually is called Sodom and Egypt, where also our Lord was crucified.” KJV. When the two witnesses are killed, (Rev 11:11) “And after three days and an half the Spirit of life from God entered into them, and they stood upon their feet; and great fear fell upon them which saw them.” KJV. The whole world will see them resurrect, this is the sign of Jonah, the three days of darkness, the unbelieving Jews will not take part of it, only the remaining Christians (Rev 11:12-13) “[12] And they heard a great voice from heaven saying unto them, Come up hither. And they ascended up to heaven in a cloud; and their enemies beheld them. [13] And the same hour was there a great earthquake, and the tenth part of the city fell, and in the earthquake were slain of men seven thousand: and the remnant were affrighted, and gave glory to the God of heaven.” KJV.
The whole world will also witness their rapture, and immediately the great earthquake will happen, which proves the sixth seal, and the sixth trumpet will happen at the same time since the sixth trumpet ends in (Rev 11:14) “The second woe is past; and, behold, the third woe cometh quickly.” KJV.
There will be a part three where the similarities between the US and Tyrus and the expected timeline will be explained.
GOD bless you and keep you.
