Re: the 3 1/2 year and the 1,260 days/ 1,290 days. Peole say whats the 30 day diffrence.
Here is my thougts
The 1260 days is the first half of the one "7" and the second half which is 1,290 days because in thats 3 1/2 years includes a leap year which includes an ectra month which is 30 days then when u add 45 days waiting period its 1335 days.

Any thoughts

Hello gdyloves,

The 1290 days and 1335 days, (30 and 45 days passed the 3 1/2 year mark, respectively) may be days in which the judgment of the sheep and the goats takes place, as well as other pre-millennial business.

The 70th week of Daniel is broken down the following way in my view....

1185 days <--the Ministry of Christ unto the lost sheep of the house of Israel (They rejected and will endure last 1335 days)

Daniel 12 tells us there is exactly 1335 days left to deal with Israel

30 Days <--false peace and safety moment with sudden destruction
1260 days of the Great tribulation
45 days of wrath upon the beast, his kingdom and all who take the mark

30+1260+45=1335

1185 Ministry of Jesus
1335 Days above

^^^^ the 70th week of Daniel

Jesus said in Matt.24 that he would shorten the days for the sake of the elects, in Rev.10 he shortened the days to five months, the first two and a half months satans one world Gov. that he sets up will rule the world, thats the fifth seal, in the middle of the five months satan comes down and claims to be christ and deceives many, thats the sixth seal, after five months Christ returns and puts an end. God bless

Greetings Celib,

The seven year period has already been written and therefore cannot be changed. The 1260 days, which are the last 3 1/2 years of that seven year period is the shortened version. The verse could be better understood as "If the seven years were allowed to go on any longer, then no one would be left alive." To be clear, the last 3 1/2 years is not being shortened, because it is the shortened version. If the time of God's wrath was allowed to go beyond that, then no one would survive.

I hope that this makes it clearer

In Matt.24:22 Jesus said for the sake of the elects those days shall be shortened, if he said he would shorten those days he will and he did, actually it's Rev. chapter nine not ten, nowhere in the Scriptures does it say it used to be more then seven years, it is now five months. God bless

Leap year includes an extra day, not an extra month.

Did the ancient Israelis even have leap year??

Rv 12:14
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

If we understand this to mean 3.5 lunar years of 354 days we get 1239 days

If we understand this to mean 3.5 solar years of 365.25 days we get 1278.375 days

Da 12:7
7 And I heard the man clothed in linen, which was upon the waters of the river, when he held up his right hand and his left hand unto heaven, and sware by him that liveth for ever that it shall be for a time, times, and an half; and when he shall have accomplished to scatter the power of the holy people, all these things shall be finished.
KJV


Da 12:11-12
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.

1239 days + 2 29 day leap years gives us 1297 days

12 Blessed is he that waiteth, and cometh to the thousand three hundred and five and thirty days.
KJV

1297 +38 =1335

neither time is precisely 3.5 years lunar or solar even counting lunar leap years of which there are 7 every 19 years; so there will be 2 in 3.5 years.

Therefore, there is no obvious way to make sense of it.

3.5 years is only 1260 days if you use uniform 30 day months; which neither the lunar nor the solar calendar does!

did the Jews bring the Babylonian calendar back with them from captivity?
or did the Babylonians adopt the Jewish calendar?

it seems clear that they brought Babylonian names back for their months.

1 .) Beloved, believe not every spirit, but try the spirits whether they are of God: because many false prophets are gone out into the world.

"My Father’s house has many rooms; if that were not so, would I have told you that I am going there to prepare a place for you? And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come back and take you to be with me that you also may be where I am."

In the scripture above, Jesus says that he is going to the Father's house to prepare dwelling places for us. And that he is coming back to take us back with him that where he is we (believers) may be also. So at some point Jesus will return to come and take the church back to the Father's house, which could only be referring to heaven. The following is a detailed account of His return:

"For the Lord himself will come down from heaven, with a loud command, with the voice of the archangel and with the trumpet call of God, and the dead in Christ will rise first. After that, we who are still alive and are left will be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air. And so we will be with the Lord forever. Therefore encourage one another with these words."

In the scripture above, the Lord descends from heaven and the dead in Christ are resurrected. Then those in Christ who are still alive will be changed and caught up with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air, where according to John 14:1-3, the Lord will take the entire church back to the Father's house.

Anyone who says they don't understand this is either purposely denying it because they've adopted the teachings of false teachers or there is definitely a veil over their spiritual eyes, because the scriptures are very clear in their meaning regarding this event.

I personally don't use the word "rapture" but stick with the original Greek "Harpazo" which means "
properly, seize by force;
snatch up, suddenly and decisively , force suddenly exercised." This is the same word used when Paul said that he was "caught up" to the third heaven and the same word used when the male child is "caught up" to God's throne and the same word used when Philip was "snatched away" from the Eunuch.

Yes the elects are on earth now
TRUE. If by elect you mean those who have been saved by grace and elected to be perfected in future.
there is no such thing as the rapture
FALSE. One should not make such assertions without studying the Bible. The Rapture is a biblical doctrine.
the elects will stand up the Antichrist, Rev.2:10 the worst they can do is put you in prison for ten days.
FALSE. This is not a reference to the Antichrist but to the diabolical persecution of Christians before the Antichrist.
