The Woman

Revelation 12:14 says, “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.” Revelation 12:6 says, “And the woman fled into the wilderness, where she hath a place prepared of God, that they should feed her there a thousand two hundred and threescore days.” To summarize, 3.5 years (a time, and times, and half a time) equals 1260 days (a thousand two hundred and threescore days). Therefore, one year equals 360 days.

This 360 day calendar is confirmed by Noah’s Flood. Genesis 7:11 says, “In the six hundredth year of Noah's life, in the second month, the seventeenth day of the month, the same day were all the fountains of the great deep broken up, and the windows of heaven were opened.” And Genesis 8:3-4 says, “And the waters returned from off the earth continually: and after the end of the hundred and fifty days the waters were abated. And the ark rested in the seventh month, on the seventeenth day of the month, upon the mountains of Ararat.” Therefore, 5 months equals 150 days. Therefore, one year equals 360 days.

The Two Witnesses

Revelation 11:3-7 says, “And I will give power unto my two witnesses, and they shall prophesy a thousand two hundred and threescore days, clothed in sackcloth…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.” Revelation 11:11-12 says, “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. 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.” To summarize, the Two Witnesses prophesy for 3.5 years (a thousand two hundred and threescore days) before being killed and lie dead in the street for 3.5 years (three days and an half) before being resurrected.

This seven year event is confirmed by Daniel’s 70th Week found in Daniel 9:24-27. To paraphrase,

(24) It will take 70 weeks to end the rebellion, to end the sin, to atone for the guilt, to usher in the Kingdom of God, to fulfill all prophecy, and to cleanse the holy land.

(25) It will be 7 weeks until the Temple complex and city walls are completed. They will be rebuilt during troubling times.

(26) It will be another 62 weeks until the Messiah arrives. He will be killed by foreigners, not for his own sins, but for the sins of others. Afterwards, they will destroy the Temple and Jerusalem. Trouble will follow until the end.

(27) At the end time, one of the foreigners’ rulers will build a coalition that lasts 1 week. In the middle of the week, he will replace sacrifices and offerings with idol worship. At the end of the week, he will be destroyed.

To summarize, verse 24 says the prophecy lasts 70 Weeks (490 years), verse 25 says the Messiah arrives after 69 weeks (483 years), verse 26 says the Messiah is killed, and verse 27 says one week (7 years) remains. Therefore, Daniel’s 70th Week mirrors the Two Witnesses.

The Seven Seals

The Fall of Jericho foreshadows the Seven Seals and Seven Trumpets. Joshua 6:3-5 says,

(3) And ye shall compass the city, all ye men of war, and go round about the city once. Thus shalt thou do six days.

(4) And seven priests shall bear before the ark seven trumpets of rams' horns: and the seventh day ye shall compass the city seven times, and the priests shall blow with the trumpets.

(5) And it shall come to pass, that when they make a long blast with the ram's horn, and when ye hear the sound of the trumpet, all the people shall shout with a great shout; and the wall of the city shall fall down flat, and the people shall ascend up every man straight before him.

To summarize, verse 3 says Israel marched around Jericho one time a day for six days, verse 4 says on the 7th day they marched around the city seven times, and verse 5 says on the 7th trip they blew the trumpets, gave a loud shout, and the walls collapsed. Likewise, the last trump, or Seventh Trumpet, accompanied by a loud shout, marks the Return of Christ, the First Resurrection of the Saints, and the Start of the Millennium. Here are four examples.

Matthew 24:31 says, “He shall send his angels with a great sound of a trumpet, and they shall gather together his elect from the four winds, from one end of heaven to the other.”

1 Thessalonians 4:16 says, “For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God.”

1 Corinthians 15:52 says, “In a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trump: for the trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed.”

Revelation 20:5 says, “Blessed and holy is he that hath part in the first resurrection: on such the second death hath no power, but they shall be priests of God and of Christ and shall reign with him a thousand years.”

To reiterate, Christ conquers the Earth the same way Joshua conquered Jericho. Therefore, one Seal is opened every year or 360 days for seven years. Revelation 8:1-2 says, “And when he had opened the seventh seal, there was silence in heaven about the space of half an hour. And I saw the seven angels which stood before God; and to them were given seven trumpets.” Therefore, the Seventh Seal starts the Seven Trumpets. Therefore, one Trumpet is sounded every two months or 60 days during the 7th year.

The Seven Plagues

The Devil, the Antichrist, and the False Prophet are conquered during the Seven Plagues. For it is written, “And he gathered them together into a place called in the Hebrew tongue Armageddon. And the seventh angel poured out his vial into the air; and there came a great voice out of the temple of heaven, from the throne, saying, It is done” (Revelation 16:16-17).

Revelation 11:15-19 says, “And the seventh angel sounded… And the temple of God was opened in heaven…” Revelation 15:5-6 says, “And after that I looked, and, behold, the temple of the tabernacle of the testimony in heaven was opened: And the seven angels came out of the temple, having the seven plagues…” To summarize,  when the Seventh Trumpet sounds, the Temple in Heaven opens, and when the Temple in Heaven opens, the Seven Plagues begin. Therefore, the Seventh Trumpet starts the Seven Plagues.

Revelation 13:4-5 says, “And they worshipped the dragon which gave power unto the beast: and they worshipped the beast…and power was given unto him to continue forty and two months.” Daniel 12:11 says, “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.” To summarize, The beast reigns for 42 months, but sacrifices are stopped for 43 month. Therefore, the Seven Plagues last one month or 30 days. Therefore, one Plague is poured out every five days during the 43rd month. So even though Christ returns on day 1260, the Beast is not removed until day 1290.

This 30 day period is confirmed by Zechariah 11:8, “Three shepherds also I cut off in one month; and my soul lothed them, and their soul also abhorred me.”

The Three Woes

The Three Woes are the 5th, 6th, and 7th Trumpets. Revelation 8:13 says, “And I beheld, and heard an angel flying through the midst of heaven, saying with a loud voice, Woe, woe, woe, to the inhabiters of the earth by reason of the other voices of the trumpet of the three angels, which are yet to sound!” The Fifth Trumpet marks the release of locust that torment mankind for five months (Revelation 9:1-12). The Sixth Trumpet marks the release of four angels that kill one third of mankind. (Revelation 9:13-21). The Seventh Trumpet is the Seven Plagues (Revelation 15,16). To summarize, there are two months between the 5th and 6th Trumpets, two months between the 6th and 7th Trumpets, and the Seventh Trumpet is the Seven Plagues which lasts one month. Therefore, the Three Woes last exactly five months. Therefore the timeline is correct.
