We are right at the end of 6000 years since Creation and the fall of man according to the Bible. Just as God created the world in 6 days and rested on the 7th and one day is as a thousand years according to Scripture, so also at the end of the 6000 years, Christ will return to the earth to rule and reign for 1000 years.

Mr. Obama was chosen on the 7th day of Tabernacles in 2009 to receive the Nobel Peace Prize and then given the award just a few hours before the start of Kislev 24, the 2 dates mentioned in Haggai 2 regarding the Lord shaking the heavens and the earth and bringing the desired of all nations to Himself. These 2 dates are incredibly significant in this puzzle. I believe this was the start of Daniel’s 70th week (see Daniel 9:27). 1260 days after Mr. Obama was chosen as the Nobel Peace Prize winner, he went to the Church of the Nativity, which was a temple fortress that had been desecrated by armed forces and considered by many to be the most holy place on the earth, and he stood where he did not belong, and stopped the daily sacrifice and offering from taking place on that day. He rode into Jerusalem on a borrowed beast, just as Christ had done, right on the 10th day of Nisan on the Jewish calendar and then the abomination took place right on the 11th day of Nisan, which was the very date that Christ spoke to His disciples about the abomination event. Daniel tells us that from this date, there will be 1290 days, which ended on the Feast of Trumpets in 2016.

So, after the abomination event on March 22, 2013, we had a 40-day probationary period as was foreshadowed to us in the story of Jonah that ended on the 7th day of Unleavened Bread during the Second Passover. Daniel gives us a 1260 and 1335-day count that both started at this time, at the end of the 40-day probationary period, and these counts ended on the Day of Atonement and on the start of Hanukkah in 2016. At the end of the 40 days, however, we saw how that the Bride of Christ came together for 3 days of fasting and prayer for the Lord to have mercy on America. This was also foreshadowed to us in the story of Jonah and of Queen Esther. Mercy was granted and judgment was delayed. If you think this delay just happened and was not shown to us in the Bible, you are very wrong. Because God is all-knowing, He knew ahead of time that this would happen and He hid this delay in His Word. We are shown in Matthew 25:5 and Revelation 10:6 that the coming of the Bridegroom will be delayed. The desolation event was delayed and the days of the Great Tribulation were shortened, as Jesus told us that they would be in Matthew 24:22, when Jesus said, “And except those days had been shortened, no flesh would have been saved: but for the elect’s sake those days shall be shortened.”

 

The final year of Daniel’s seventieth week was to have started in the fall of 2015 and ended during Hanukkah of 2016, just after the blood moons and solar eclipses on the Jewish feast days in 2014 and 2015. However, the year 2016 was an election year in America and I believe the Lord delayed His judgment further, in order to give America more time to turn back to Him. The year 2016 was also not a Jubilee Year, so a final seven years had to be added in order to fulfill the prophecies about the Year of Jubilee. I personally believe that 2016/2017 ended the 6000 years from Creation, but the Lord is counting the 6000 years from the fall of man, rather than from Creation. The Book of Jubilees tells us that Adam and Eve were in the Garden of Eden for seven years before they fell and that in the eighth year, the fall of man took place. Adding 7 years to 2016/2017 brings us to 2023/2024 as the end of the 6000 years from the fall of man.

This adding of an additional seven years was all foreshadowed to us in the story of Joseph, with two 7-year periods, one of great abundance and one of famine, as well as the story of Jacob, who after working for 7 years had to then work an additional 7 years in order to marry his true love, Rachel. This was also foreshadowed to us twice in the Old Testament when the Feast of Unleavened Bread and the Feast of Tabernacles were celebrated for 14 days rather than for 7 days. These stories were all meant to show us how the Lord was going to turn Daniel’s seventieth week into 2 periods of 7 years and not just one. Daniel 9:27 could be interpreted as this: “And he will confirm a covenant with many for the FIRST week.” Whenever the word “first” is used, it always implies that there will be a second one also.

 

Daniel’s seventieth week is now finished (twice over) and it is now time to “to finish the transgression, to put an end to sin, to ATONE for iniquity, to bring in everlasting righteousness, to seal both vision and prophet, and to anoint a most holy place” (see Daniel 9:24). Just as the Lord added an eighth day to the Feast of Tabernacles, and the eighth day replaced the seventh day as a Sabbath rest, so also the Lord has added one final year to His puzzle, with the fifteenth and final year starting on October 7, 2023, on the eighth day of Tabernacles, and ending on January 1, 2025, on the seventh day of Hanukkah.

 

The Lord told us that He would shorten the days of the Great Tribulation for the sake of His elect, or His left-behind saints. We repeatedly see in the Scriptures a “time, times and half a time” mentioned in reference to the length of time of the Great Tribulation. The “time” was to have been a prophetic year of 360 days, for a total of 1260 days, or 3.5 years. However, this “time” has been shortened to just 3.5 days for those taken in the firstfruits rapture and 3.5 weeks for the left-behind saints.

 

I believe the Lord is patterning the final 15 weeks of 2024 after the 15-year chart above. The firstfruits rapture was to have taken place in the middle of the first 7-year period and the Bride of Christ was to have been taken to a place prepared by God for 1260 days. However, the Lord showed Baruch the prophet that this 7-year period mentioned in Daniel 9 (also called Daniel’s seventieth week) would be shortened to a 7-week period, but would still be divided into 2 parts. I believe the left-behind saints will have to endure 3.5 weeks of tribulation starting on October 13, 2024, until they too are redeemed from the earth at the second rapture on November 6, 2024. ​

The wrath of God will then begin on the earth after all Christians have been taken to the place prepared for them by God out of the serpent’s reach for the final 49 days before Christ returns to the earth at the start of Hanukkah to rule and reign with His Bride for 1000 years. I believe there will most likely be a third harvest/rapture event on the twenty-fourth day of Kislev, when the Lord told us in Haggai 2 that He would shake the heavens and the earth. Those believers in Christ who are taken in the second and third rapture/harvest events, who have missed the wedding Feast of Tabernacles in heaven in October 2024 will celebrate the wedding Feast of Hanukkah on the earth after Christ returns on December 26, 2024. The Bride of Christ will be crowned on the seventh day of Hanukkah, on January 1, 2025, as co-ruler of the earth with King Jesus to start the New Millennium.

Those taken in the firstfruits rapture will be taken to a place prepared for them by God out of the serpent‘s reach for 73.5 days, from October 13, 2024, until December 25, 2024. This is a “time, times and half a time” using 21 days as the measurement of time (see Daniel 10).

Only 1/3 of the “day” and “night” is without light, according to the fourth trumpet judgment of Revelation 8. I believe the Scriptures are showing us that counting from the start of the “Day of the Lord” (night) on the Day of Atonement until the third harvest/rapture on Kislev 24 (December 25, 2024), only 1/3 of this 73.5-day period will be without light for those taken in the second rapture/harvest event on November 6, 2024. Once the second harvest takes place, they will be with Christ, the Light of the World.

What a God of grace we serve! What an amazing puzzle He has put together, showing His incredible mercy and love, not wanting anyone to perish, but all to come to repentance. He has shortened the days of tribulation for His left-behind saints from 3.5 years to just 3.5 weeks. He will still fulfill the “time, times and half a time”, but is just switching the “time” from a YEAR to a WEEK. In His great mercy, He is giving so many chances for people to come to Him during this time of great distress on the earth and delivering His holy people from the darkness of this world into His glorious light. The message He is giving to His children, both to those who already know Him and those who are about to come into His Kingdom, is that He is loving and compassionate; He is not a God of anger. He is allowing the chaos that is coming on the world during this short period of time in order that more people would turn to Him. He is allowing Satan to have authority of the earth for a short time in order that millions of souls will call out to Him for salvation. Cry out to Jesus today. Tomorrow is never promised. All who call on the Name of the Lord will be saved.
