Sequence
of Endtime Events
1.
Roots of the industrial age can be traced far back as 600 B.C. to
Thales of Miletus, a citizen of Ionia credited with the invention of
philosophy.
2.
The apostasy (falling away from the faith) started approximately 300
A.D., beginning with the invention of Catholicism (2The 2:1-4)
3.
Hitler rose to power
a.
He used the catholic doctrines of anti-Semitism to condemn the Jews for martyring their own messiah
b.
He also used Darwin's atheism, based on the theory of evolution (survival of the
fittest), to justify the holocaust
4.
Rise of the United States after WWII
5.
The apostasy humanized religion, while science denies all forms of
spirituality, establishing materialism as the secular worldview. The
result has hardened man’s heart. People have since become unreachable after
replacing a healthy fear of God with the traits of psychopathy in
preparation to receive the antichrist (Matt
24:12).
6.
Rise of Russia and China

7.
The first seal/horseman rides a white horse holding a bow (with no
arrows); he set out conquering and to conquer (Rev 6:1,2)
a.
International moneylenders pursuing economic conquest have propped up
the United States economy with trillions of dollars for the last
twenty-five years, but America will be unable to repay their debts.
United States economy will ultimately collapse, leading to worldwide
economic collapse (Dan 2:40-43).
b.
The American economy is represented by ten world banks (Dan 7:7)
c.
When the United States is no longer able to pay its debts, China will
demand American property and assets as collateral.
d.
America will refuse to relinquish its assets to its debtors; China will
threaten America with military action (Dan 8:1-5).
8.
The second seal/horseman rides a red horse set out to take peace from
the earth (Rev 6:3,4)
a.
As an opportunistic man of lawlessness, portrayed in Daniel as the
11th horn, will hijack the U.S. economy, pulling up three of its ten
world banks in his rise to power, becoming stronger than any of the
remaining seven world banks (Dan 7:8)
b.
This 11th horn will feign loyalty to American interests, financing its
military (the goat) and inciting the United States to start World War
III against it debtors, primarily Russia and China (the two-horned ram),
under his oath that he will refinance the American economy after the war
(Dan 8:23).
c.
The United States will defeat Russia and China in a nuclear holocost, attempting to maintain
military world supremacy (Dan 8:5-7).
d.
The 11th horn will betray American interests and will invest in Russia
and China, assimilating what remains of their economy after WWIII. He
will establish himself as the economic and military leader of the whole
world (Rev 13:11-18).
9.
The goat’s horn will be broken (the United States). The 11th horn will
rise to world dominance and leave the U.S. vulnerable to its enemies.
New York City will be leveled by a nuclear attack from a Middle Eastern
nation (probably Iran or Pakistan). New York City is not the religious
whore of Babylon as depicted in Revelation, but is a type of Babylon
(Rome – Dan 8:8).
10.
The third seal/horseman rides a black horse holding a pair of scales,
denoting a loaf of bread for a day’s wages (Rev 6:5,6).
a.
Inflation will ravage America and the world economy.
b.
The greatest depression the world has ever known will have its origins
in the United States, being far worse than the depression of 1929, and
will spread throughout the developed world.
11.
The forth seal/horseman rides a pale horse, who was called death, and
Hades was following after him. Nations and their governments along with
their economies will collapse around the globe, leading to worldwide
political and social anarchy. Lawlessness will rule the streets. Many
will die from famine, disease and pestilence. Some will live in the
wilderness and be eaten by feral dogs. The population of mankind will
reduce by one-fourth; 1.75 billion people (Rev 6:7,8).
12.
A massive worldwide revival (Joel 2:28-32; Isaiah 60; Isaiah 63)
a.
The church will physically unite to help meet each others’ needs,
living together through a global economic crisis (Rev 6:5,6)
b.
God will establish his two witnesses, the first of the 144,000. Their
ministry will initially resemble Joseph and Daniel, benevolent spiritual
leaders, having gifts and great wisdom from God (Gen 41:38-45; Dan
1:18-20).
c.
The two witnesses will establish the 144,000 Jews, the woman of
Revelation 12 (Rev 14:4).
d.
The purpose of the woman is to lead the gentile church (her children)
into a global revival far greater than the glory of the early church.
This Jewish/gentile church will spiritually unite as a single entity
(Rev 7:4-17).
13.
Satan in human flesh, the identity of the 11th horn, will react to quell
the revival, using the pope
a.
His motive will be to raise up the pope as the antichrist and establish
his New World Religion, which will be a mixture of Catholicism and
Judaism (Rev 17:1-13).
b.
The pope will stage his assassination and then be pseudo resurrected
from the dead (Rev 13:3).
c.
The 11th horn (head of the monetary system) will become the false
prophet and require the world to worship the antichrist.
d.
He will glorify the antichrist hoping to unite the world around
Catholicism and resist the Christian revival with the goal of
establishing his global monetary system around his religion (Rev
13:11-18).
14.
Jerusalem’s temple will be rebuilt (Dan 12-11,12). The antichrist will
make a treaty with the orthodox Jews and their neighboring Moslem
enemies to let Jerusalem rebuild their temple. He will allow them to
worship the God of the Old Testament, which will incite Israel’s
enemies against them and create confusion and discord within the
Christian revival (Dan 9:27).
a.
The antichrist migrates to Jerusalem to become Israel’s false messiah
and mock-savior of the gentiles (Rev 11:8).
b.
The ulterior purpose of the antichrist stationing his empire in
Jerusalem will be to war against the saints. His motive for quelling the
revival is self-worship as God of the Bible (Dan 7:25; Rev 13:7).
c.
He will enter the Jewish temple claiming to be God (2The 2:4)
d.
The priestly Jewish zealots will physically extricate him from their
temple; in a rage Satan will possess the man of lawlessness on the spot
e.
He will revoke Israel’s right to perform temple services (Dan
8,11-14).
15.
The fifth seal – Many Christians die as martyrs – Christians and
Jews alike will be rounded up into concentration camps and
systematically eliminated (Matt 24:9).
16.
The sixth seal – A giant earthquake occurs as a judgment from God
against the martyrdom of His saints, violently shaking the mountains of
the whole earth (Rev 6:12-17)
17.
The mark of the beast (Rev 13:11-18)
a.
Global financiers (the beast, also called the false prophet) will unveil
his New World Order, a new global economy that he has built around the
antichrist’s religion
b.
The false prophet will introduce his mark to the global economy
promising to bail out the nations of the world that join the
antichrist’s new world religion
c.
The mark of the beast will have the effect of exposing the false
brethren within the church, causing many within the global revival to
question their faith and leave the church and take the mark (Matt
24:9-11)
d.
Those who leave the church will be obligated to turn in Christians
before receiving the mark as a way of proving their loyalty to the beast
18.
The seventh seal is opened containing the seven trumpets, reflecting the
plagues of the two witnesses (Rev 8:6-13; Rev 9:1-21; Rev 11:5,6)
a.
The two witnesses are transformed from the benevolence of Joseph and
Daniel to the magistrates of Moses and Elijah (Rev 11:1-6).
b.
The 144,000 Jews will lead the gentile church into exile from
civilization, fleeing into the wilderness from the dragon during the 3
˝ year period of the two witnesses
c.
Tribulation of the Saints formally begins. There, the 144,000 will lead
her children into a supernatural ability to pray (Rev 8:1-5; Rev
12:6-17). The majority of the martyrs will be killed during this time.
d.
Parable of the ten virgins is played out, where the five foolish virgins
leave the assembly of the righteous in search of more oil for their
lamps (oil referring to the anointing; Matt 25:1-13). Trumpets are the
voices of angels; the shout the ten virgins heard was the sound of the
first trumpet (Rev 4:1).
19.
The trumpets begin
a.
The first trumpet – fire mixed with blood will destroy a third of the
earth (the shout heard in the parable of the ten virgins)
b.
The second trumpet – a giant volcano will blow its top into the sea,
turning a third of it blood red
c.
The third trumpet – a giant asteroid is inevitably roaming our solar
system on a near collision course with the earth. Astronomers will
discover it and report it to NASA, who will send up a probe intending to
nudge it off course, but will inadvertently nudge it directly on course
with the earth. In this way man will undo himself using his technology.
The asteroid will destroy a third of the fresh water
d.
The forth trumpet – a third of the earth’s atmosphere was darkened
by the volcano and asteroid plume
e.
The fifth trumpet – from the plume of ash came locusts like scorpions
f.
The sixth trumpet – the Chinese army will rise up and kill a third of
mankind
g.
1.75 billion people will die, leaving only 3.5 billion people
20.
The dragon kills the two witnesses, but they are raised from the dead,
and ascend to heaven in the presence of their enemies (Rev 11:7-12)
-
The
seventh trumpet (Rev 11:15)
-
Blessed
first resurrection; the dead in Christ will be raised imperishable
(1Cor 15:50-55)
-
The
rapture will occur. God will take His people to the second heaven
(the clouds that surround the earth) and watch the bowls unfold
against the wicked
-
Half the
population of the earth will participate in the rapture (1.75
billion people), leaving the other half (1.75 billion) to face the
bowls of God’s wrath. In the parable of the ten virgins five
were wise and five were foolish.
-
A giant
asteroid will strike the earth, creating an ash plume that will
cover the whole surface of the earth in a matter of hours. Christ
will come for His people on the ash cloud the asteroid made.
-
This
cloud is the sign of the Son of man (Matt 24:29-31).
-
The
rapture of the church (1The 4:13-18).
-
Those of
the five foolish virgins who repent after the rapture and are left
behind will migrate to Jerusalem, where God will protect them until
He returns to destroy His enemies.
-
From
jealousy (the same motive that hung Jesus on the cross) the armies
of the New World Order will attack the homeland of the antichrist
(Rome), because of his failure to quell the revival and because of
his unwillingness to share his wealth. The false prophet will
destroy Babylon (the Vatican), illustrating the self-destructive
nature of Satan (Rev 17:16-18).
-
The bowls
of God’s judgment (Revelation 16) – fallout from the asteroid
a.
The first bowl – Malignant soars on those who received the mark of the
beast
b.
The second bowl – All the sea became like blood; everything in the sea
died
c.
The third bowl – All fresh water became like blood
d.
The fourth bowl – The sun scorched the earth with fire
e.
The fifth bowl – The throne of the beast became darkened; they gnawed
their tongues because of pain (a plague of Moses)
f.
The sixth bowl – The Euphrates River was dried up to make way for the
armies of the east
·
An army of 200,000,000 came from the east toward Israel
·
The war of Armageddon – armies of the false prophet will surround
Jerusalem with the intent to destroy it for hosting the antichrist (Lk
21:20). It occurs just outside Jerusalem; it is essentially a war
against God
g.
The seventh bowl – a giant earthquake, triggered by the asteroid of
the rapture, larger than any that man has ever witnessed
·
It splits Jerusalem into thirds, analogous to Jerusalem being split
between the orthodox Jews, the messianic Jews and the atheistic Jews.
·
The ruins of Rome are further destroyed this time by the hand of God
·
All the nations fall
·
Every mountain falls, all the islands are removed in preparation for the
millennium
·
A hail storm each one-hundred pounds pummels the earth (a plague of
Moses)
-
The armies
of the earth commanded by the false prophet surround Jerusalem
intent on destroying it for harboring the antichrist
-
War of
Armageddon
-
Jesus
Christ comes and saves Jerusalem from destruction
-
He
rescues His saints hiding in the holy city from the armies of the
false prophet. Similar to Pentecost, the saints of the early
church hid in the upper room and waited for the promise of His
Spirit (Act 1:10-14).
-
The
Marriage Supper of the Lamb – occurs while waiting for the earth
to become habitable again (Rev 19:7-9), an undeterminable amount of
time.
-
The
millennium begins (Rev 20:1-10) – Jesus returns with his saints to
the Mount of Olives.
-
Antichrist
and the false prophet are thrown alive into the lake of fire (Rev
19:19-21)
-
Satan is
bound for a thousand years, then released to deceive the nations
once more to prove that Satan is incapable of repentance and that
man is doomed to follow him in his flesh (Rev 20:1-10)
-
Satan is
released to deceive the nations once more to prove the reprobate
nature of Satan and man’s tendency to follow him. The enemies of
God rally against Christ’s throne, rising from the broad plane of
the earth for their last hurrah; their numbers are like the sand on
the seashore. The rebellion is crushed, and Satan is thrown into the
lake of fire (Rev 20:10)
-
White
throne judgment of the wicked. After their judgment death and Hades
are throne into the lake of fire (Rev 20:11-15)
-
God
creates a new heaven and a new earth – the new Jerusalem is
established on the earth (Revelation 21,22 )
-
Eternity
resumes! (Revelation 23)
