Present indications are that Jesus will return 2030-2040 AD.
Over the last few weeks I have been going through and updating all my 25 world trends articles on my website and it still looks to me that present indications are that Jesus will return 2030-2040 AD. I know that late date does not please the 2012-2019 second coming of Jesus crowd but they simply are wrong, so that is their problem. To find out why they are wrong you will have to read these 25 articles or read my previous blog on why Jesus is not coming between 2012-2019.
Now some of you need to quit whining about how long that is and do something for the Lord with the little time that you have left, because if you really think about it, there is not much time left to work. If you go with the middle date, say 2035, and subtract seven years that is left for the Jews you are at 2028 AD. Also, the Rapture is likely to be at least a few years before then (I think 3 1/2 to 7 years). Therefore, the rapture might happen before or around 2020-2025 AD. So that leaves true Christians only about 10 or 20 more years to get their mission on earth accomplished.
You might also consider that during the time that we have left to work it is going to become increasing difficult to work and that many in the institutional churches will be falling away into Apostasy. We already see that taking place. There is also likely to be the beginning of sorrows or false birth pains within this period before the Rapture. Possibly even the first five seals of Revelation will take place during this time. I think that will play out as a world war against those forcing fundamental Islam on the world followed by persecution of fundamental Christians as well.
I also think the United States will cease to be a superpower during the next decade. So all those that are anxious for the tribulation to get started will have plenty of tribulation right here at home in the United States. Tribulation has already started for some and its going to get much worse.
All the events on the earth that will take place in the next 10 to 20 years will just set the stage for the rise of the Beast/Antichrist. Many pieces are still not in place for the Beast but you will have to read the articles to see why Bible prophecy cannot all be fulfilled as soon as some are now saying. Some are even saying that we are already in the final seven years. That concept must mostly be wishful thinking of those that are armed to the teeth to fight the new world order because it certainly cannot come from any rational interpretation of Bible prophecy.
Don Koenig founded www.thepropheticyears.com website in 1999 after almost thirty years of independent study on the Bible and learning from many astute teachers within Christendom. Don created his website to write about Bible prophecy, biblical discernment and his Christian worldviews. Don wrote a free Revelation commentary ebook in 2004 named "The Revelation of Jesus Christ Through The Ages". The World and Church and Bible Prophecy section of this website was started in 2007.

I think that you could be right. I believe that the rapture will include specific signs and events that should give the believer the ability to know at least a close approximation of the time, the day of the Lord is to be secret, at least to the World. I would agree that 2030 is a probable time for the day of the Lord based on Hosea 6. Marking the event from the fullfillment of scripture of 2000 years after Christ’s death (the time the Messiah was ‘cut off’ from the land. ) The day of the rapture would be approximately 7 years earlier, near 2023. If the Messiah was born in BC 4 as is generally held then we could adjust all of these dates back and then the rapture would be 2019 or 20, and the day of the Lord would be 2026 or 27.
The Middle East is quickly joining forces with China due to currency and Oil. China owns half our national debt and as we default it will quickly dump our currency toward other markets. It will be interesting to see how soon these million men can be gathered.
I think that the inventory of people is already taking place where most in China are undergoing an identification number, India is currently in process of a Biometric Identification – where you will not be able to have a bank account without one in the next few years, Mexico is also engaging in this.
I enjoy your blog, thank you for making me think. It is rare and good to find such a relevant perspective based upon correct theology.

And also the 2012 movie is a very popular movie right now.
I agree with you on this article I do not believe we got to much time left. Have you noticed that more frequent earthquakes has been happening lately?
You make some very valid poitns, Don.
The whole 2012 thing will come and go just as Y2K did. IT’s really a laughable non-issue and will just line the pockets of those looking to make a quick buck off of people’s fears, insecurity and lack of biblical knowledge.
One area I believe one has to watch the technology front. How will the Beast be able to monitor and control the financial transactions of the whole world.While our technology is impressive today, the power to control a world-wide financial system like the Bible declares in the end times. We may have broken the petaflop barrier(1 quadtrillion calculation per second), but will probably need to reach 100 petaflops to get that type of control and that is probably 8-10 years out.
Of course, events can hasten things or slow them down. We really don’t know. I believe we will see a Psalm 83 war sometime soon. I believe there will be a prosperous Israel living in relative saftey before the Gog-Magog war, and the ultimate decline of America as a superpower and being eventually controlled by Europe, the new world superpower.
It’s getting close. Time to finish our work and get our house in order.
Dear Mr. Don Koening,
Carry on. This is also a area of interest for me. So I studied a lot, Islamic literatures, Bible, prophecy of Nostradamus etc. Never mind, with due respect to Christianity and Jesus I want to say that there are many common believes between Muslims and Christians, “the 2nd coming of Jesus” theory is one of them, though the objectives of coming to earth again according to the two communities is different.
However, according to my research the exact 2nd coming date of Jesus(Isha) will be in the month of July or September of the year 2028. The details behind the conclusion is absolutely personal. If you feel further interest, then we can share ideas and thoughts later on via personal e-mail not over blog.
Thanks
Amirul
I get many emails from those who feel they know the date of the Rapture or the second coming of Jesus and almost all of them claim different years or dates. The truth is as Jesus Himself said, no man knows that day or hour. I personally think 2028 is closer to the dating of the coming of the Antichrist for reasons stated on this website but 2028 is certainly getting in the general ballpark.
Theories based on non Christian sources carry no weight with me. If events appear to take place according to theory from demonic sources you can be sure it is a deception paving the way for the counterfeit. By the way, I think the Islamic Antichrist theory based on Islamic teachings is exactly that. Nostradamus practiced forbidden arts he got nothing about the future from God.
