In line 5 - you have the "Great Falling Away" in the first 1260 days half of Daniel's symbolic "one week". Per 2 Thess.2:3-4, it's when the false one sits in the temple showing himself that he is God, and over all that is called God or that is worshiped, is when the great falling away occurs.
It is your opinion that the Great Falling away happens at the exact same time as the false one sits in the Temple. In reading II Thess 2: 3-4 There is no indication whatsoever that they happen simultaneously. It only states that those things must happen first before Christ Returns. The Falling away could happen 3 1/2 years prior to the false one sitting in the Temple and II Thess 2:3-4 would still be Correct. The Falling away is not a single event. The Falling away happens during the whole of the first 3 1/2 years of the Tribulation Period. However most will fall away as soon as Tribulation starts, and they are those who believed in a pre-trib Rapture. When Tribulation starts and Jesus DID NOT COME as they have falsely believed their entire lives, will lose Faith altogether that any of it was real, these will fall away from the Faith. When the Tribulation starts all the way up to the point Christ Returns there will be people who fall away from the Faith, Not only the Christian Faith, but all faiths of the world will be falling away during this 3 1/2 year period.
It coincides with his being revealed in the temple exalted as God.
It is your opinion they coincide. Scriptures does not teach they do. If you think Scriptures does, then show the verse where Scriptures teach they coincide.
Paul called that event the "strong delusion" in that 2 Thess.2 chapter.
The Strong Delusion is not a reference to the Falling away though. The strong delusion is to those who will believe the false one is the Messiah. When the antichrist appears on the stage of the world, the Jews will believe he is the promised Messiah. Likewise the Muslims will also believe he is their promised Mahdi (Messiah) This is the only reason their is a Peace agreement between Israel and Jerusalem, the only reason the Temple is allowed to be built.
I realize many preachers today claim that falling away is about believers that stray in their daily living away from Christ, quit going to Church, quit reading their Bible, and basically beginning to alienate our Lord Jesus in their lives, but that is only a prep for the coming "strong delusion", and not the actual "strong delusion" itself, which will be that false one actually proclaiming to be God and working the great signs, wonders, and miracles that will cause even many atheists to believe.
The antichrist will be working all those great signs, wonders, and miracles during his reign. his reign is the first 3 1/2 years of the Tribulation Period. The Strong delusion happens during his reign. It is at the end of the 3 1/2 years that the desolation happens, which is at that time when the Jew realized that he is NOT the Messiah, it is also when the Muslems realize he is not their Mahdi, hence the reason the Peace agreement is broken. Also just as a side note. the antichrist does not proclaim himself to be God, it will be the Jews and the Muslims which proclaim him to be God. The antichrist (atheist) takes advantage of this, not that he thinks he IS God, because he does not believe in any God whatsoever, but if the Jews and the Muslims want to give him the Power of a God, he will take it. He will be their God.
.... ... ..... ... .. . .. .....but that is only a prep for the coming "strong delusion", and not the actual "strong delusion" itself, which will be that false one actually proclaiming to be God and working the great signs, wonders, and miracles that will cause even many atheists to believe. Thus, that period is set for the latter half of Daniel's "one week", the latter 1260 days period, which is the actual time of "great tribulation" our Lord Jesus warned.
The antichrist will have no power at all during the last half of the 7 year tribulation period, that is why i changed the timeline to reflect what it does now. Jesus Christ is here at the 7th Trumpet, it is at this time when Jesus becomes KING of all kings of the Earth, even the antichrist. When Christ gets here after 3 1/2 years of the Tribulation Period, the antichrist will have no power at all. Of coarse it will be him who rallys the nations to attack Jesus (Holy City) when it first gets here, but in one days time, all of Jesus enemies that come against Him will be utterly destroyed.
Also on line 5 - you have "Nations Fight Against Christ" within... the latter 1260 day period of the "one week", when that event is actually at the end of the latter 1260 days period when Jesus returns.
Please look at the Timeline, Nations fight against Christ is not indicated during the last 3 1/2 years of the 70th Week, but is plainly pointing at the line which indicates the Time of the Rapture. When Jesus shows up in the New City Jerusalem, this is when the nations come against Him, this is the time they will attack. It is not possible to attack Jesus before He gets here. Therefore Jesus must arrive here, before He is attacked. Therefore Jesus arrives, which starts the last part of the 3 1/2 year of the Tribulation Period (7 vials) So then at the start of the latter 3 1/2 years is when they will attack Him.
That is when He gathers His Church
The teaching that He gathers His Church at the 7th Vial contradicts other inspired by God verses in Scriptures, therefore can't possibly be correct. God told me "If what you believe contradicts even one verse in Scriptures then what you believe is WRONG" Scriptures plainly teach the Rapture happens at the last Trumpet sounding, which is the 7th Trumpet of Revelations.
That is when He gathers His Church and fights the battle of Armageddon of Rev.16 on the final 7th Vial, because notice at Rev.16:15 on the 6th Vial He is still warning His Church of His coming "as a thief" (which ties to 1 Thess.5 and 2 Pet.3:10 about the "day of the Lord" events that will end this present world. The events of Rev.9:12 through Rev.11:15 are on the 6th trumpet - 2nd woe period, and that is when the latter 1260 days period is, with the devil in control upon the earth over all nations, and that is the time of "great tribulation".
Revelations 16:15 is not a warning to the Church DURING the time of the 6th vial. It is merely a warning to the Church for those who will be reading Revelations prior to His coming. Jesus comes as a thief in the night, and Scriptures plainly teaches it is at the last Trumpet sounding, it does NOT teach it is at the 6th vial or at the last vial being poured out. Verse 15 was included for OUR sakes, those who would be reading it NOW. That warning could have been written in any one of the 7 vials being poured out. my point is just because it was written in the 6th vial does not mean that is when Christ would return, it was written merely as a warning to the Church, those who would be reading Revelations in the future. Scriptures does not teach Christ is going to get the Church at the last Trumpet sounding AND also going to get the Church at the 6th or 7th vial. Scriptures plainly teach He is going to get His Church at the last Trumpet sounding, therefore the interpretation that He is going to get the Church at the 6th or 7th vial because of what verse 15 says, Can't possibly be TRUE. Therefore verse 15 is merely a warning to the CHURCH, those who would be reading Revelations prior His Return.
In line 6 - you have the Seals prior to the "one week" and going into the first 1260 days a little, then the trumpets blown in the first 1260 days, and then the vials in the latter 1260 days. Per our Lord Jesus' parable of the fig tree, all the signs He gave upon the Mount of Olives (Matt.24; Mark 13; Luke 21) are for the final generation that will see His 2nd coming. He only gave us 7 Signs in that, not 21. In Revelation He went into more detail with 3 sets of those same 7 Signs. So I do not interpret those as men's traditions do like you have them.
And who made you an interpreter? Do you think you are so special that you can interpret the Word of God? If YOU interpret the Word of God, how is that not from YOU? From your own MIND? Your own Thoughts, your own intellect? Your own opinions, your own ideals? This generation does greatly error in adding their own intepretations to the Word of God, as if men could actually do that. Those who try to interpret the Word of God via their own selves opens the door for satan to enter into the process of that interpretation. INTERPRETATIONS belong to God NOT to men.
Our Lord Jesus returns and gathers His Church on the 7th Trumpet and 7th Vial is what I see.
Are you one of those people who will hold on to what you see, over and above what Scriptures actually teaches? Many people teach that the 7th Trumpet and 7th vial are one and the same. But does Scriptures teach that? Or is that yet another interpretation done by men persuaded by satan, because they try to interpret the Word of God.
So then according to your statement above "Our Lord Jesus returns and gathers His Church on the 7th Trumpet and 7th Vial " So are you saying there are Two Raptures? Scriptures only teach of one. So then if your not saying there are two Raptures then you must be saying the 7th Trumpet and the 7th vial are one and the same, the same event described two different ways. If you seriously want the Truth, i hope you will believe the Scriptures which plainly PROVES they are not the same thing, not the same event. Consider:
Rev 11:15 And the seventh angel sounded; (This is the 7th Trumpet sounding)
and there were great voices in heaven, saying, The kingdoms of this world are become the kingdoms of our Lord, and of his Christ; and he shall reign for ever and ever.
Rev 11:16 And the four and twenty elders, which sat before God on their seats, fell upon their faces, and worshipped God,
Rev 11:17 Saying, We give thee thanks, O Lord God Almighty, which art, and wast, and art to come; because thou hast taken to thee thy great power, and hast reigned.
Rev 11:18 And the nations were angry, and thy wrath is come, and the time of the dead, that they should be judged, and that thou shouldest give reward unto thy servants the prophets, and to the saints, and them that fear thy name, small and great; and shouldest destroy them which destroy the earth.
Rev 11:19 And the temple of God was opened in heaven, and there was seen in his temple the ark of his testament: and there were lightnings, and voices, and thunderings, and an earthquake, and great hail.
When, according to the Inspired by God Scriptures, was the Temple of God in Heaven opened? It was opened at the sounding of the 7th Trumpet. Now what does Scriptures teach about what comes out of the Temple?
Rev 15:5 And after that I looked, and, behold, the temple of the tabernacle of the testimony in heaven was opened:
Rev 15:6 And the seven angels came out of the temple, having the seven plagues, clothed in pure and white linen, and having their breasts girded with golden girdles.
So Scriptures plainly teach that when the temple was opened in Heaven, 7 Angels came out of the Temple to pour out the 7 plagues.
Rev 16:1 And I heard a great voice out of the temple saying to the seven angels, Go your ways, and pour out the vials of the wrath of God upon the earth.
So recapping: When was the Temple of God in Heaven opened? at the 7th Trumpet. And what came out of the Temple once it was opened? The 7 Angels with the 7 vials. So then how can it possible be that the 7th vial and the 7th Trumpet are one and the same? It is that the 7th Trumpet that the Temple is opened, then after it is opened is when the the first vial is poured out, then the second, then the third, then the fourth, then the fifth, then then the sixth, then the seventh. How then can the pouring of the 7th vial be the same as the 7th Trumpet which started the pouring out of all the vials? You do error thinking they are one and the same. The Question now is will you continue to hold on to your own interpretation or believe what the Word of God teaches? Will you change your belief to match Scriptures, or do what this generation does best and change the Scriptures to match your belief?
Again, remember at Rev.16:15 on the 6th Vial, He is still warning His Church that He comes "as a thief", and for us to keep our garments lest we appear in shame; and that ties directly to the timing of the "day of the Lord" which Paul and Peter both taught is at the end of this world (as also written in the OT prophets).
Verse 15 is indeed a warning to the Church, it is not a warning to a Church during the pouring out of the 6th vial, because the Church was Raptured up at the last Trumpet sounding, right before the 7 vials were to be poured out afterwards.
Is it not men's interpretation that teaches if a verse is mentioned in this place or that place it means that is what is to be in that place or this place? Is it not men's interpretation that teaches if something is NOT mentioned in a particular event that means it does not exist during that event? Men with their interpretation have been misinterpreting the Word of God since the Word of God came out. Saying such things like, because the Church is not mentioned during chapters such and such, that means the Church is NOT there. or because the Church is warned in telling of the prophesy concerning the pouring of the vials, that means the Church is still there during the pouring of the vials. All interpretations of men, and NOT from God.
And here is a warning to all of you who interpret the Word of God, Interpretations belong to God, NOT TO MEN, you have been warned.
In the Millennium timing, where you have "Age Limit Restored", I disagreed with that. This is what I wrote, which I still hold to:
During the thousand years, you have an idea there about age limit restored. Not sure what you mean by that.
And how difficult is it to ask "What do you mean by that?" Also it is not my ideal, it is what God has revealed to me. Please do not give me credit for something He has given me.
My understanding is that everyone alive on earth on the last day when Jesus comes, will be changed to the "spiritual body"
This understanding comes from interpretations of men, not from Scriptures.
Paul taught in 1 Cor.15 with the "last trump" sounding, the 7th of Rev.11 (see also Isaiah 25 about the idea of death swallowed in victory, who all it is to). Man's time in a flesh body will then be over forever.
Man's time in the flesh will then be over forever. Scripture please. or is this but another interpretation of Scriptures made by man.
The wicked outside the gates of the holy city will still be subject to perish though, the "second death", and will be in that state throughout Christ's thousand years reign. Those are the nations outside the holy city which Christ with His elect will reign over with a rod of iron in that time (Rev.22:14-15 and Rev.20 and end of Zech.14).
Christ will reign over them for 3 1/2 years after His arrival here on Earth. He will rule them with an rod of iron. But during this time those same wicked, those who were not taken up with Him when He got here, are being wiped out by the pouring of the vials, as you see in the Timeline. Christ Returns, then the vials are poured out. It is because of the vials being poured out upon them, that the battle of Armageddon takes place, led by the antichrist, which lost His power when Christ showed up and became King of Kings of the Earth.
