The man clothed in linen, who was above the waters of the stream, raised his right hand and his left hand toward heaven; and I heard him swear by him who lives for ever that it would be for a time, two times, and half a time; and that when the shattering of the power of the holy people comes to an end all these things would be accomplished.

So, the time of trouble (i.e., Jacob's Trouble (Jer 30v7)/The Great Tribualation) such has never been since there was a nation is still future for Dan 12v9 tells us it occurs at 'the time of the end' and such a time has NOT occured as yet; Dan 12v7 tells us that this period of time also know as the Great Tribulation is 'a time, two times and half a time' three and a half years, so you quite wrong to say that the time period that the Great Tribulation lasts is not given in Scripture, for as I have shown it is, it last three and a half years
!

The above scriptures indicate a time coming on America and Great Britain. Since they are the direct descendants of Jacob ( Israel) this will be a time like no other for them. We are entering that time frame now.

I haven't heard this before. What passages support this?

I agree what you're saying about the final 'seven', the AofD, and the time of unequaled distress, but I've always considered it global. Why do you point out America and Britain?

The Holy Spirit gave it to me in the blink of an eye. However, its the terminology that confuses people.
The "end time" events, say as mentioned in the book of Rev, "THAT" period, is a "time of Jacob's trouble".
The "great tribulation" from a "christian" mindset assumes its directed at the church. There *IS* tribulation
for the church. It *IS* Great Tribulation. There is another "Great Tribulation" and people assign it to the
church, when it is directed at the Jews. However, the Lord hammered the time short and stated it was short
and pointed out the Jews. The typical christian who dabbles in prophecy, has a huge ego and full of pride,
because they think everything else that is going to happen, has the church on center stage. Its not.
The church is just a section in the Bible. Adam to Noah, Noah to Abraham, Abraham to Jesus, Jesus to the church age,
church age back to the nation of Israel.
The 'Great Tribulation' is not specifically "about the Jews" --- the "time of Jacob's Trouble" is... The two are different.
