The Beginning of the End
This is the time lapse of the 70th week (7 years). Major verses of Scripture are referenced.
The Lord’s “harpazo” will remove living believers from a world of unbelief just before the 70th week begins. The living and the dead in Christ will be translated into the eternal state. They are seen in heaven as Revelation unfolds. [Matthew 25:1-13] [1Corinthians 15:51-54] [1Thessalonians 4:13-18, 5:1-11] [2 Thessalonians 2:1-15] [Revelation 3:10, 4:4, 5:8-10, 7:9-17, 11:1, 12:12, 13:6, 18:4, 19:1-9, 19:14]
The opening volley of the Lord’s judgment will consist of the following: Cosmic disturbances, thunder and lightening, a western centered earthquake, Satan’s (and other angelics) fall to the earth, and darkness will cover the earth. The quake’s epicenter will gravely damage the north American and western European continents. The west is the only direction not mentioned during the rise and rule of Satan’s little horn and the 10 other Middle Eastern kings related to their Middle Eastern dominion. All of the other three vectors are covered. [Isaiah 2:10-22] [Daniel 8:9, 11:40-45] [Joel 2:30-31] [Malachi 4:5] [Matthew 24:21-22] [Luke: 21:25-26, 21:35] [Revelation 6:12-17, 8:5, 9:1, 9:11, 9:14-15]
The little horn (Satan’s beast and human pawn) will quickly unite 10 Middle Eastern kings. He will overthrow and replace 3 of them. [Ezekiel 38:1-7] [Daniel 7:8, 7:20, 7:23] [Revelation 17:8-14]
The 6 trumpets will sound together on the same day and all 6 events will actuate. [Revelation 8:6-13, 9:1-21]
The little horn and 10 kings will destroy the “great city” of the west in one hour (trumpets 1-4). [Revelation 8:7-12, 17:16-18, 18:1-21]
Satan will release Abaddon and the abyss angelics, and the Euphrates angelics will be unbound. (trumpets 5-6) [Revelation 9:1, 9:11, 9:14-15]
The Little horn will begin the expansion of his Middle Eastern dominion to the east (Iran, Afghanistan, and Pakistan), south (Egypt, Jordan, and Saudi Arabia), and toward Israel. [Daniel 8:9-12, 11:39-43]
The little horn will vanquish his opposition from the far east and far north. [Daniel 11:44]
The little horn will invade and occupy the Land of Israel just before the middle of the 2,520 days. [Ezekiel 38:8] [Daniel 9:26-27, 11:41, 12:1, 12:7, 12:11] [Joel 2:1-11] [Matthew 24:15-20] [Luke 21:20-24] [Zechariah 14:1-5] [Revelation 11:2, 12: 6, 12:14-17, 13:1-5]
The little horn will then rule over Israel, Jerusalem, and the temple mount for 1,260 days, and cause much destruction and death for the rest of the world. [Daniel 8:9-12, 8:23-25, 11:41, 12:7, 12:11] [2 Thessalonians 2:4, 2:9-11] [Revelation 11:2]
The 7th trumpet will sound at the end of the 2,520 days and the Lord will direct His wrath at the little horn and his followers. The greatest earthquake known to humans will occur during the battle of Armageddon. [Ezekiel 38:17-23, 39:3-20] [Daniel 7:11, 7:26, 8:25 9:27, 11:45] [Zechariah: 14:12-14] [Revelation 14:9-20, 16:1-16, 16:18-20, 19:11-21]
The little horn will gather his followers from the 10 Middle Eastern kingdoms and those from the near east (primarily India and Indonesia) to meet the Lord north of Jerusalem on the plains of Megiddo. [Joel 3:1-16] [Revelation 16:12-16]
The Lord will destroy the little horn and his kingdom in the next 30 days and then appear to the world, gather and separate the mortals who survive the tribulations of those days during 45 days, and establish His millennial Kingdom (restore the Kingdom to Israel) on earth for 1,000 years. [Isaiah 2:2-4] [Zechariah 14: [Daniel 12:7, 12:11, 12:12] [Joel 2:20-21] [Matthew 24:29-31 25:31-45]
