Rapture Archives - A journal about Bible prophecy and human depravity at the end of the age Sun, 07 Apr 2024 09:40:06 +0000 en-US hourly 1 96261382 Did Oct 7, 2023 start The 10 days (years) of awe for Israel? https://www.thepropheticyears.com/enddepravity/have-the-10-days-of-awe-before-the-second-coming-begun.html Wed, 11 Oct 2023 13:46:02 +0000 https://www.thepropheticyears.com/enddepravity/?p=4093 My Revelation Commentary suggests that there are 10 years from the Rapture of the Church, and the opening of the first seal, until the physical 2nd coming of our Lord Jesus Christ (not just 7 years). That ten years may or may not actually turn out to be the case. Even so, in Judaism, there are 10 days of awe where Jews are to repent so that their sins are covered before they appear before God. I believe these 10 days of awe may also represent 10 years to get the nation of Israel that have returned, but are still in unbelief, time to repent before the appearing of her Messiah.… continue reading

Second coming in 2030’s – Rapture 7 to 10 years sooner https://www.thepropheticyears.com/enddepravity/reasons-why-the-second-coming-is-in-the-early-2030s.html Mon, 02 Oct 2023 11:26:53 +0000 https://www.thepropheticyears.com/enddepravity/?p=4059 Some 25 years ago I started The Prophetic Years website with my writing of 25 articles on world trends pointing to the soon return of Jesus Christ. The various world trends all correlated to suggested to me that the Lord would return in the early 2030’s. And because I believe the scriptures teach a pre-trib rapture before the seven seals in Revelation are opened, the rapture of the spirit born Church would occur 7 to 10 years sooner. I believe this should occur by the mid 2020’s.

Today, in late 2023 it still looks to me like these events will be fulfilled in the timeline that I suggest.… continue reading

After America declines world power shifts back to first century location https://www.thepropheticyears.com/enddepravity/after-america-declines-world-power-shifts-back-to-first-century-location.html https://www.thepropheticyears.com/enddepravity/after-america-declines-world-power-shifts-back-to-first-century-location.html#comments Fri, 02 Oct 2020 16:19:07 +0000 https://www.thepropheticyears.com/enddepravity/?p=3555 Some think the civil war in America has already started. Has the fall of America as a world power already begun? The reprobate minded radical left who are controlling the Democratic Party obviously believes insurrection is warranted against President Trump. They also are hostile toward his supporters. The left already tried a coup attempt and an impeachment to overthrow the president.

Democrats are now outright saying they will take it to the streets if Trump is winning the election. This radical leftist hijacked party plans to use any means necessary, even insurrection, to drive Trump from office. I think people funding and pushing this insurrection should be rounded up and prosecuted.… continue reading

With mobs and Sodom and Gomorrah playing out in the streets, the Church should be aware that the Rapture grows ever closer.

Because Israel rejected her Messiah everything has been on hold until God takes out a risen bride for His Son to rule and reign with Him. After this fullness of the Gentiles comes in, God will again deal with Israel to fulfill the remaining week of years foretold in Daniel’s 70 weeks prophecy (Dan 9:24-27).… continue reading

The Spanish Flu killed about three percent of the population on earth and it started during World War I. That flu killed many more people than did the war. One could argue that such happenings are a judgement from God. It does seem that God purges the earth occasionally to keep evil from totally taking it over. The reaction to the novel coronavirus is about to destroy all the economies of the Western World and evil dictators are likely to see the Western panic as their big opportunity.… continue reading

The 2020’s will turn out to be a prophetically fateful decade https://www.thepropheticyears.com/enddepravity/the-2020s-will-turn-out-to-be-a-prophetically-fateful-decade.html https://www.thepropheticyears.com/enddepravity/the-2020s-will-turn-out-to-be-a-prophetically-fateful-decade.html#comments Fri, 03 Jan 2020 16:50:13 +0000 https://www.thepropheticyears.com/enddepravity/?p=3129 I am not going to make specific predictions for 2020 but I believed we have now arrived to the decade of the Rapture of the Bride of Christ. Shortly after the Rapture the tribulation period will occur followed by the fulfillment of all Bible prophecy related to the second coming of Jesus Christ. I think most of the end times prophecies will be fulfilled in the 2030’s although the four horsemen of Revelation probably will ride in the 2020’s.

I could be wrong about the tribulation starting in the 2020’s, but if I am, I don’t think it will prove to be of much comfort to those living through this decade.… continue reading

The mystery of Babylon the kingdom counterfeit of Satan https://www.thepropheticyears.com/enddepravity/the-mystery-of-babylon-the-kingdom-counterfeit-of-satan.html https://www.thepropheticyears.com/enddepravity/the-mystery-of-babylon-the-kingdom-counterfeit-of-satan.html#comments Fri, 06 Dec 2019 20:10:59 +0000 https://www.thepropheticyears.com/enddepravity/?p=3080 One of the great mysteries of the Bible is how the prophecies about Babylon are to be fulfilled. The major prophecies about Babylon are found in Isaiah 13-14 & 47, Jeremiah 50-51 and Revelation 17-18. Most just focus on the Revelation prophecies and ignore the Old Testament prophecies about Babylon. Even so, any prophecies that have not already been fulfilled about Babylon in the OT still must be literally fulfilled.

If you study all the prophecies about Babylon, you should see the parallel in Revelation to what is said in the OT. The OT prophets make it abundantly clear that Babylon is a literal city located on the plains of Shinar.… continue reading

Worldwide falling birth rates signals 2030’s end of the age harvest https://www.thepropheticyears.com/enddepravity/worldwide-falling-birth-rates-signals-2030s-end-of-the-age-harvest.html https://www.thepropheticyears.com/enddepravity/worldwide-falling-birth-rates-signals-2030s-end-of-the-age-harvest.html#comments Fri, 25 Oct 2019 16:33:19 +0000 https://www.thepropheticyears.com/enddepravity/?p=3007 The Bible clearly likens the end of the age to being a great harvest of people. The people of God are reaped and stored in God’s barn and allowed into the Lord’s kingdom. The people of the Devil are gathered in bundles by angels to be burned and their souls are cut off from the earth. Harvests occur when the crop reaches maximum yield. One of the most overlooked signs of the times by Bible prophecy teachers is world demographics. Birth rates falling below replacement levels has never occurred in the history of our planet. It would be one of the clearest signs of the time that the end of the age has arrived.… continue reading

After the end of age harvest only gleanings remain https://www.thepropheticyears.com/enddepravity/after-the-end-of-age-harvest-only-gleanings-remain.html https://www.thepropheticyears.com/enddepravity/after-the-end-of-age-harvest-only-gleanings-remain.html#comments Fri, 01 Feb 2019 16:55:38 +0000 https://www.thepropheticyears.com/enddepravity/?p=2606 I have heard Bible prophecy teachers say things like a third or half of the population might not survive the tribulation. That sounds bad enough, but the truth of the mater is that less than ten percent of the earth’s population will live through these end of the age judgments. If God had not limited the length of the judgments for the sake of the elect, no flesh on earth would have survived. After a harvest, only the gleanings remain in the field. A few here and a few there. The tribulation is the end of age harvest of souls.

Before the end of age harvest, the Rapture will come for believers and remove some unknown percent of the earth’s population.… continue reading

The apostasia happens followed by the son of perdition being revealed.

2Th 2:1 Now we beseech you, brethren, by the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, and by our gathering together unto him,
2Th 2:2 That ye be not soon shaken in mind, or be troubled, neither by spirit, nor by word, nor by letter as from us, as that the day of Christ is at hand.
2Th 2:3 Let no man deceive you by any means: for that day shall not come, except there come a falling away first, and that man of sin be revealed, the son of perdition;

The word interpreted as a falling away in the King James version is the Greek word apostasia.… continue reading
