“As the people were in ‘expectation’ (the Christ appear), and all were questioning in their hearts concerning John, whether he might be the Christ.” – Luke 3:15

The woman said to him(Jesus), “I know that Messiah is coming (he who is called Christ)…” – John 4:25

Jesus said to her, “I who speak to you am he.”(John 4:26).

Lord Jesus was looking at apostles and telling them what would happen of them before the End Day come(before the Temple destroyed), so he said “you [apostles] will…”.

Matthew 24:9-11 “Then they will deliver you(apostles) up to tribulation and put you to death, and you will be hated by all nations for my name’s sake. ¹⁰ And then many will fall away and betray one another and hate one another. ¹¹ And many false prophets will arise and lead many astray.”

Mark 13:9-11 “But be on your guard. For they will deliver you over to councils, and you(apostles) will be beaten in synagogues, and you will stand before governors and kings for my sake, to bear witness before them. ¹⁰ And the gospel must first be proclaimed to all nations. ¹¹ And when they bring you to trial and deliver you over, do not be anxious beforehand what you are to say, but say whatever is given you in that hour, for it is not you who speak, but the Holy Spirit.”

Luke 21:16,17 “You (apostles) will be delivered up even by parents and brothers and relatives and friends, and some of you they will put to death. ¹⁷ You will be hated by all for my name’s sake…”

Jesus told the apostles what would happen to them before the final ‘3.5‘ End Day period: They would be beaten and brought to kings to bear witness Jesus, and finally be martyred. Also he said “the gospel must first be proclaimed to all nations”, false christs and false prophets would appear during the “One Seven” period.

And Jesus answered them[apostles], “See that no one leads you astray. ⁵ For many will come in my name, saying, ‘I am the Christ,’ and they will lead many astray. ⁶ And you[apostles] will hear of wars and rumors of wars. See that you are not alarmed, for this must take place,

but the end is ‘not yet‘. – Matthew 24:4-6

See that you[apostles] are not led astray. For many will come in my name, saying, ‘I am he!’ and, ‘The time is at hand!’ Do not go after them. ⁹ And when you hear of wars and tumults, do not be terrified, for these things must first take place,

but the end will ‘not be at once‘. – Luke 21:8,9

¹⁴ ‘But when’ you see the abomination of desolation standing where he ought not to be (let the reader understand)…

¹⁹ For in those days [The End Days] there will be such tribulation [the Great Tribulation] as has not been from the beginning of the creation that God created until now, and never will be.”

– Mark 13:14-19

²⁰ ‘But when’ you see “Jerusalem surrounded by armies”, ‘then know‘ that its desolation has come near [the End Days come]… 

For there will be great distress[the Great Tribulation] upon the earth… and Jerusalem will ‘be trampled‘ underfoot by the Gentiles, ‘until‘ the times of the Gentiles are fulfilled(ended).”

– Luke 21:8-24

To put it simply, the Seventy Weeks refers to YHWH God’s plan to rebuild Jerusalem and restore Israel. Once the rebuilding is finished,the six goals will be accomplished:

(1) to finish the transgression, (2) to put an end to sin, (3) and to atone for iniquity, (4)  to bring in everlasting righteousness, (5) to seal both vision and prophet, (6) and to anoint a most holy place.

That’s why apostles knew they were living in the final period of ‘Seventy Weeks’ during the 1st century. Therefore, they asked Jesus…

“Lord, will you [Jesus] at this time restore the kingdom to Israel?” – Acts 1:6

If the ‘six goals’ are accomplished, wouldn’t that be the picture of New Heaven and New Earth? That’s why it makes us dreaming the New Jerusalem of God’s Kingdom. Yes.

************

²⁵ Know therefore and understand that from the going out of the word to restore and build Jerusalem to the coming of ‘an anointed one, a prince‘ [Messiah-Christ]… 

²⁶  …an anointed one [prince Jesus] shall be cut off and shall have nothing.

²⁷ And he [prince Jesus] shall make a strong covenant [New Covenant-Kingdom of God] with many [Apostles and disciples] for One Seven.

²⁷ and for ‘half of the Seven‘ he [prince Jesus] shall put an end to sacrifice and offering(of Jerusalem).

²⁶ And… the prince [Messiah-Christ Jesus] who is to come shall destroy the city [Jerusalem] and the sanctuary [the Temple].

²⁷ And on the wing of abominations shall come one who makes desolate, until the decreed end is poured out on the desolator.

²⁶ Its end [Seventy Sevens ends] shall come with a flood, and to the end there shall be war. Desolations are decreed.

Who is the ‘Prince’?

²⁵ Know therefore and understand that from the going out of the word to restore and build Jerusalem to the ‘coming’ of an anointed one, a ‘prince’, … ²⁶ And… the ‘prince‘ who is ‘to come‘ shall destroy the city[Jerusalem] and the sanctuary[the Temple].

This clearly tells us the ‘Prince‘ – ‘the coming‘ – ‘who is to come‘ refers to Messiah-Christ Jesus. You know, unless Jesus allowed it, the holy city Jerusalem would not have been destroyed, ‘not a hair of Jerusalem will perish’. In this sense, the ‘desolator’ [Roman Empire] was used by Jesus as an instrument to accomplish God’s will.

The prophets had already foretold that the earthly Jerusalem would be destroyed because it was full of sin. Jesus himself confirmed this in Mark 14:58…

“We heard him say, ‘I [Jesus] will destroy this temple [earthly Jerusalem temple] that is made with hands, and in three days I will build another, not made with hands (the temple – Jesus himself).’ “

It proves that Jesus allowed the earthly Jerusalem to be destroyed [by the desolator]. Afterward, he would build another one not made with hands (Jesus himself). Therefore, the true Temple – ‘Jesus and the Father God’ would appear in the heavenly New Jerusalem (Revelation 21:22), there is no longer any need for a physical earthly temple as the symbol of God’s presence.

On the other hand, if Jesus has built a superior one not made with hands, why do people still insist on building a 3rd temple that made with hands?

“So when you see the abomination of desolation… ¹⁹ And alas for women who are pregnant and for those who are nursing infants in ‘those days!‘… ²² And if ‘those days‘ had not been cut short, no human being would be saved. ” – Matthew 24:15,19,22

“All these are but the ‘beginning‘ of the birth pains.” – Matthew 24:8

²⁹ Immediately after the tribulation of ‘those days‘ [End of childbirth period] the sun will be darkened… ³⁰ Then will appear in heaven the sign of the Son of Man…” – Matthew 24:19-30

====================

“¹⁴ But when you see the abomination of desolation…¹⁷ And alas for women who are pregnant and for those who are nursing infants in ‘those days‘ ! … 

¹⁹ For in ‘those days‘ there will be such tribulation as has not been from the beginning of the creation that God created until now, and never will be…

²⁴ But in ‘those days‘, after that tribulation, the sun will be darkened… ²⁶ And then they will see the Son of Man… ” – Mark 13:14-26

====================

“²⁰ But when you see Jerusalem surrounded by armies, then know that its desolation has come near. ²³ Alas for women who are pregnant and for those who are nursing infants in ‘those days‘ ! … 

²⁴ …and Jerusalem will be trampled underfoot by the Gentiles (AD 70), until the times of the Gentiles are fulfilled [42 months].” – Luke 21:20-24

************

“And a great sign appeared in heaven: a woman clothed with the sun… ² She was pregnant and was crying out in birth pains and the agony of giving birth…  

⁶ and the woman fled into the wilderness, where she has a place prepared by God, in which she is to be nourished for “1,260 days” (“3.5“)…

¹⁴ …, to the place where she is to be nourished for “a time, and times, and half a time” (“3.5“).”

– Revelation 12:1-2,6,14

************

Jesus Christ didn’t break down ‘those days‘ into 2 or more portions, all he mentioned was only one period from the Temple destruction till to his return. And he used one more term, ‘This Generation‘, to refer to this ‘those days’ period.

He said “Truly, I say to you, ‘this generation‘ will not pass away until all these things take place”. ‘This generation‘ is not ‘two generations or generations’, but one single. Therefore, ‘this generation‘ represents throughout‘ timing from AD 70 till the ending of the Age, same as proclaiming the Kingdom’s gospel period from the 1st century until the end of the Age.

“And this gospel of the kingdom will be proclaimed throughout the whole world as a testimony to all nations, and then the end will come.” – Matthew 24:14

Therefore, this ‘3.5‘ symbolic period of ‘this generation‘, ‘those days‘ also refers to the ‘witnessing period‘ of the Seven Churches of the Revelation.

So the last ‘3.5‘ period,

= “those days”;

= “this generation”;

= “42 months”;

= “a time, times, and half a time”;

= “1260 days”;

= Heavenly woman give birth to Saints period;

= God’s Gospel proclaiming period;

= Seven Churches’ period;

= “Sealing the 144,000 saints” period;

= “The wheat – the sons of the Kingdom” growing period;

= “The End Day” / “the last days” period;

= A symbolic period (lasted about 2000 years);

= From AD70 till to the last day when Jesus comes;

************

Matthew 25:1-13

Then the kingdom of heaven(those days of preaching Gospel of Kingdom) will be like ten virgins [churches] who took their lamps [spiritual light] and went to meet the bridegroom [Jesus].

² Five of them were foolish [churches have no spiritual light], and five were wise [churches shine spiritual light]. ³ For when the foolish took their lamps, they took no oil with them, ⁴ but the wise took flasks of oil with their lamps. 

⁵ As the bridegroom was delayed (lasted about 2000 years now), they all became drowsy and slept.

⁶ But at midnight there was a cry, ‘Here is the bridegroom! Come out to meet him.’ (Jesus come, the ending of the End Days) 

⁷ Then all those virgins rose and trimmed their lamps. 

⁸ And the foolish said to the wise, ‘Give us some of your oil, for our lamps are going out.’ 

⁹ But the wise answered, saying, ‘Since there will not be enough for us and for you, go rather to the dealers and buy for yourselves.’ 

¹⁰ And while they were going to buy, the bridegroom came, and those who were ready went in with him to the marriage feast, and the door was shut. ¹¹ Afterward the other virgins came also, saying, ‘Lord, lord, open to us.’ ¹² But he answered, ‘Truly, I say to you, I do not know you.’ 

¹³ Watch therefore, for you know neither the day nor the hour.

************

Matthew 25:14-30

“¹⁴ For it will be like a man(Jesus) going on a journey, who called his servants and entrusted to them his property. ¹⁵ To one he gave five talents, to another two, to another one, to each according to his ability. Then he went away [Jesus back to heaven]. 

¹⁶ He who had received the five talents went at once and traded with them, and he made five talents more. ¹⁷ So also he who had the two talents made two talents more. ¹⁸ But he who had received the one talent went and dug in the ground and hid his master’s money. 

¹⁹ Now “after a long time” (lasted about 2000 years now), the master of those servants came [Jesus came back] and settled accounts with them. 

²⁰ And he who had received the five talents came forward, bringing five talents more, saying, ‘Master, you delivered to me five talents; here, I have made five talents more [made more talents to Kingdom of God].’ ²¹ His master said to him, ‘Well done, good and faithful servant. You have been faithful over a little; I will set you over much. Enter into the joy of your master.’ …”

Conquering, and to Conquer

“Go therefore and make disciples of all nations… And behold, I am with you always, to the end of the age.” – Matthew 28:19,20

“In the world you will have tribulation. But take heart; I have overcome the world.” – John 16:33

 – To the one[Ephesus] who conquers I will grant to eat of the tree of life, which is in the paradise of God.

– The one[Smyrna] who conquers will not be hurt by the second death.

– To the one[Pergamum] who conquers I will give some of the hidden manna, and I will give him a white stone…

–  The one[Thyatira] who conquers and who keeps my works until the end, to him I will give authority over the nations.

– The one[Sardis] who conquers will be clothed thus in white garments.

– The one[Philadelphia] who conquers, I will make him a pillar in the temple of my God.

– The one[Laodicea] who conquers, I will grant him to sit with me on my throne, as I [Jesus] also conquered and sat down with my Father on his throne.

“The one who conquers will have this heritage, and I will be his God and he will be my son.” – Revelation 21:7

“When he opened the second seal, I heard the second living creature say, “Come!” ⁴ And out came another horse, bright red. Its rider was permitted to take peace from the earth, so that people should slay one another, and he was given a great sword.” – Revelation 6:3,4

“And you will hear of wars and rumors of wars… ⁷ For nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom,… ⁸ All these are but the beginning of the ‘birth pains‘.” – Matthew 24:6-8

“And a great sign appeared in heaven: a woman clothed with the sun… ² She was pregnant and was crying out in ‘birth pains‘ and the agony of giving birth.” – Revelation 12:1,2

When he opened the third seal, I heard the third living creature say, “Come!” And I looked, and behold, a black horse! And its rider had a pair of scales in his hand. ⁶ And I heard what seemed to be a voice in the midst of the four living creatures, saying, “A quart of wheat for a denarius, and three quarts of barley for a denarius, and do not harm the oil and wine!”

– Revelation 6:5,6

“There will be famines. These are but the ‘beginning‘ of the birth pains.” – Mark 13:8

“When he opened the fourth seal, I heard the voice of the fourth living creature say, “Come!” ⁸ And I looked, and behold, a pale horse! And its rider’s name was Death, and Hades followed him.

And they(3 horses) were given authority over a fourth of the earth, to kill with sword [the Red Horse] and with famine [the Black Horse] and with pestilence and by wild beasts [the Pale Horse] of the earth.” – Revelation 6:7,8

“There will be great earthquakes,… and pestilences.” – Luke 21:11

“And Moses took half of ‘the blood‘ and put it in basins, and half of the blood he threw against the altar. ⁷ Then he took the Book of ‘the Covenant‘ and read it in the hearing of the people. … ⁸ And Moses took the blood and threw it on the people and said, “Behold the blood of the covenant that YHWH has made with you in accordance with all these words.”” – Exodus 24:6-8

“They… came into the wilderness of Sinai, … There Israel encamped before the mountain, ³ while Moses went up to God. YHWH called to him out of the mountain, saying, “Thus you shall say to the house of Jacob, … ⁵ Now therefore, if you will ‘indeed obey‘ my voice and ‘keep‘ my covenant, you shall be my treasured possession among all peoples, for all the earth is mine; ⁶ and you shall be to me a ‘kingdom of priests‘ and a ‘holy nation‘.” ” – Exodus 19:2-6

At first, Jehovah God made Covenant with Israelites, if they indeed obey commandments of YHWH God, worship YHWH God only, love good and hate evil, then they would be a ‘holy nation‘ and a ‘kingdom of priests‘.

That means all saints of the heavenly Kingdom would be chosen from Israelites by blood. Unfortunately, they did not fulfill this Covenant and also killed the righteoues Jesus. Therefore, God made a “new Covenant” to fulfill His original Promised Covenant, to establish the ‘kingdom of priests‘ and the ‘holy nation‘.

“[Jesus] saying, “This cup that is poured out for you is ‘the new covenant‘ in my ‘blood‘. ²⁹ and I assign to you, as my Father assigned to me, ‘a kingdom‘, ³⁰ that you may eat and drink at my table in my kingdom and sit on thrones judging the twelve tribes of Israel.” – Luke 22:20,29-30

“…And Jesus said to them, “The cup that I drink you will drink (be killed), and with the baptism with which I am baptized, you will be baptized (born again).” – Mark 10:39

“When he opened the fifth seal, I saw under the altar the souls of those who had been slain for the word of God and for the witness they had borne. ¹⁰ They cried out with a loud voice, “O Sovereign Lord, holy and true, ‘how long‘ before you will judge and avenge our blood on those who dwell on the earth?” 

¹¹ Then they were each given a white robe and told to rest a little longer, ‘until‘ the number of their fellow servants and their brothers should be complete, who were to be killed as they themselves had been.” – Revelation 6:9-11

“ But if some of the branches [Israelite by bood] were broken off, and you [Gentiles], although a wild olive shoot, were grafted in among the others and now share in the nourishing root [Israelite] of the olive tree [God’s Kingdom]” – Romans 11:17

1 Peter 2:5,9 says, “You yourselves [Gentiles] like living stones are being built up as a spiritual house [New Jerusalem], to be a holy priesthood, to offer “spiritual sacrifices” (under the altar the souls of the 5th Seal) acceptable to God through Jesus Christ. ⁹ But you are a chosen race, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, a people for his own possession…”

The seventy-two returned with joy, saying, “Lord, even the demons are subject to us in your name!” ¹⁸ And he said to them, “I saw Satan fall like lightning from heaven”. – Luke 10:17,18

“When he opened the sixth seal, I looked, and behold, there was a great earthquake, and the sun became black as sackcloth, the full moon became like blood, ¹³ and the stars of the sky fell to the earth as the fig tree sheds its winter fruit when shaken by a gale. ¹⁴ The sky vanished like a scroll that is being rolled up, and every mountain and island was removed from its place… ¹⁷ for the great day of their wrath has come, and who can stand?” – Revelation 6:12-14

“Now war arose in heaven, Michael and his angels fighting against the dragon. And the dragon and his angels fought back, ⁸ but he was defeated, and there was no longer any place for them in heaven. ⁹ And the great dragon was thrown down, that ancient serpent, who is called the devil and Satan, the deceiver of the whole world—he was thrown down to the earth, and his angels were thrown down with him.” – Revelation 12:7-9

” ² She [the heavenly woman] was pregnant and was crying out in birth pains and the agony of giving birth…¹³ … the dragon… pursued the woman who had given birth to the male child. 

¹⁴ But the woman was given the two wings of the great eagle so that she might fly from the serpent into the wilderness, to the place where she is to be nourished for [3.5] a time, and times, and half a time.” – Revelation 12:2,13,14

When the sixth Seal was opened, Devil Satan and his angels were thrown down onto to the earth (maybe before AD 70), the heavens rejoiced! The old heaven has passed away, and the new heaven without Devil Satan has come. It seems the Great Tribulation has come, but just as ancient Israelites refused to enter the Promised Land, so God also refused that ‘generation‘ to enter the Promised Land, they had to stay in the wilderness until the 40 years wilderness period ended.

Similarly, the ancient Israelites as the symbol for ‘symbolic 40 years wilderness period‘, which would occur from AD 70 until Jesus comes. This period is a long, unknown symbolic period: 1,260 Days, ‘a time, times, and half a time’, 7 Churches – 2 Witnesses witnessing period, ‘3.5’, heavenly woman birth pains period, sealing of 144000 Saints period, Jerusalem being trampled period.

All of them are mentioned as the end days period. When this period is being ended, the 7th Seal will be opened!! Let’s see what happens during this ‘wilderness symbolic period’…

“¹⁷ Then the dragon became furious with the woman and went off to make war on the rest of her offspring, on those who keep the commandments of God and hold to the testimony of Jesus.” – Revelation 12:17

We can say ‘the birth pains period‘ began in 1st century that proclaiming the gospel of God’s Kingdom. During this period, the Heavenly Woman gives birth to Saints – the Chosen. When this testimony ended, ‘birth pains‘ of heavenly woman period will end too, for the ‘Offspring‘ has been born. That’s why Jesus said,

“And this gospel of the kingdom will be proclaimed throughout the whole world as a testimony to all nations, and then the end will come.” – Matthew 24:14

“Again, the kingdom of heaven is like a net that was thrown into the sea and gathered fish of every kind. ⁴⁸ When it was full, men drew it ashore and sat down and sorted the good(the Chosen) into containers but threw away the bad. ⁴⁹ So it will be at the end of the age. The angels will come out and separate the evil from the righteous.” – Matthew 13:47-49

But why did Jesus use ‘birth pains‘ to describe the ‘End Days period‘? Is there any relationship with ‘birth‘? Is there any relationship with ‘gospel’? Yes, the answer is in the Revelation.

“³ Jesus answered him, “Truly, truly, I say to you, unless one is born again he cannot see the kingdom of God.”… 

⁵ Jesus answered, “Truly, truly, I say to you, unless one is ‘born‘ of water and the Spirit, he cannot enter the kingdom of God. 

⁶ That which is born of the flesh is flesh, and that which is ‘born’ of the ‘Spirit (heavenly woman)’ is spirit(Saints).” – John 3:3-6

“And a great sign appeared in heaven: a woman (the heavenly holy spirit organisation – the fullfillment woman of Gensis 3:15) clothed with the sun, with the moon under her feet, and on her head a crown of twelve stars (having the heavenly Royal Glory of her sons – 12 apostles – 12 stars).  

² She was pregnant and was crying out in birth pains and the agony of giving birth (give birth Jesus and Saints – the rest Offspring).” – Revelation 12:1,2

“She gave birth to a male child(the first born), one who is to rule all the nations with a rod of iron, but her child was caught up to God and to his throne” – Revelation 12:5

Who is the firstborn male child of heavenly woman? Yes, Jesus.

Luke 1:30-33
³⁰ And the angel said to her, “Do not be afraid, Mary,… you will conceive in your womb and bear a son, and you shall call his name Jesus. 

³² He will be great and will be called the Son of the Most High. And the YHWH God will give to him the throne of his father David, 

³³ and he will reign over the house of Jacob forever, and of his kingdom there will be no end.

The Holy Spirit will come upon you, and the power of the Most High will overshadow you; therefore the child to be born will be called holy—the Son of God. – Luke 1:35

“Jesus Christ, ²² who has gone into heaven and is at the right hand of God, with angels, authorities, and powers having been subjected to him.” – 1 Peter 3:22

⁶ and the woman fled into the wilderness, where she has a place prepared by God, in which she is to be nourished for ‘1,260 days – 3.5‘. – Revelation 12:6

⁷ Now war arose in heaven, Michael and his angels fighting… ¹³ And when the dragon saw that he had been thrown down to the earth, he pursued the woman who had given birth to the male child. 

¹⁴ But the woman was given the two wings of the great eagle so that she might fly from the serpent into the wilderness, to the place where she is to be nourished for ‘a time, and times, and half a time – 3.5‘. – Revelation 12:7,13-14

¹⁷ Then the dragon became furious with the woman and went off to make war on ‘the rest of her offspring‘, on those who keep the commandments of God and hold to the testimony of Jesus.

Therefore, from the 1st century the Heavenly Woman (Holy Spirit) is giving birth to the rest of her ‘Offspring‘ – ‘Saints‘ during this symbolic ‘1260 days‘ period; ‘a time, times, and half a time‘; ‘the symbolic wilderness period‘. This period is also called ‘wheat growing period‘; the ‘Seven Churches period‘. How many of Saints will be born? Are they a limited number?

“He put another parable before them, saying, “The kingdom of heaven may be compared to a man [Jesus] who sowed good seed [the sons of the kingdom] in his field, 

²⁵ but while his men were sleeping [12 Apostles died], his enemy [Devil] came and sowed weeds [the sons of the evil one] among the wheat [the sons of the kingdom] and went away….

³⁰ Let both grow together [in those days-an unknown period] until the harvest, and at harvest time…” – Matthew 13:20-30

“³⁹  …The harvest is the end of the age, and the reapers are angels.” – Matthew 13:39

Wheat refers to the Saints, the sons of the Kingdom; the heavenly woman give birth to her ‘offspring’ – Saints during ‘One Seven‘ period. AD 70 is the half of ‘One Seven’, the following ‘3.5‘ period that will last a long unknown timing, from the 1st century until the harvest.

This also refers to Revelation 7:1-4, where the 144,000 Saints are being sealed until their number is complete. Then the 4 angels would release the four destroyed winds, the end of the age would come officially.

” ³ saying, “Do not harm the earth or the sea or the trees, until we have sealed the servants of our God on their foreheads.” ⁴ And I heard the number of the sealed, 144,000, sealed from every tribe of the sons of Israel:” – Revelation 7:3,4

************

“Go therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, ²⁰ teaching them to observe all that I have commanded you. And behold, I am with you always(in ‘those days’), to the end of the age. ” – Matthew 28:19,20

So in ‘those days‘; 1260 days; a time, times, and half a time; 3.5, the Gospel of Kingdom will be proclaimed to the whole world. This is also the symbolic 7 Churches period which Jesus build his churches period. Jesus would build Church on the rock of Peter and 12 apostles, until to the end of the age.

“And I tell you, you are Peter, and on this rock I will build my church… ” – Matthew 16:18

¹⁹ Write therefore the things that you have seen, ‘those’ that are [the 1st century churches] and ‘those‘ that are to take place after this [churches in the future]. 

²⁰ As for the mystery of the seven stars that you saw in my right hand, and the seven golden lampstands, the seven stars are the angels of the seven churches, and the seven lampstands are the seven churches. – Revelation 1:19,20

So the symbolic 7 Churches witnessing period started in the 1st century and will span a long time called ‘a time, times, and half a time‘, until the witnessing of the 7th Church comes to end… What does it mean of ‘a time, ‘times’ and ‘half a time’?

This period may be compared with the ‘harvest time slot’ parable of Jesus in Matthew chapter 20…

a time:

“For the kingdom of heaven is like a master of a house who went out early in the morning to hire laborers (the 1st century churches – the earliest morning) for his vineyard [make Saints]… 

times:

³ … about the third hour [the 2nd time slot churches] … he said, ‘You go into the vineyard too’… 

[Master]Going out again about the sixth hour [the 3rd time slot churches] and the ninth hour [the 4th time slot churches], he did the same. 

half a time:

⁶ And about the eleventh hour, [the final time slot churches], he went out and found others standing. And he said to them, ‘Why do you stand here idle all day?’ … ‘You go into the vineyard too.’ 

⁸  And when evening came (the end of the Age), the owner of the vineyard said to his foreman, ‘Call the laborers and pay them their wages…’ “

– Matthew 20:1-8

************

But why did God not define the 7 Church ages as 7 periods, but rather as “a time, times, and half a time” (3.5)?

Because there are 2 witnesses (2 Lampstands – 2 Churches) who are witnessing at the same time, that’s why God defines it 3.5 times, not 7 times.

 ³ And I will grant authority to my ‘two witnesses‘, and they will prophesy for 1,260 days, clothed in sackcloth. ⁴ These are the two olive trees and the ‘two lampstands‘ that stand before the Lord of the earth. – Revelation 11:3,4

¹² Then I turned to see the voice that was speaking to me, and on turning I saw seven golden lampstands, ¹³ and in the midst of the lampstands one like a son of man [Jesus]… (lampstands that stand before the Lord) – Revelation 1:12,13

 ²⁰ As for the mystery of… the seven golden lampstands, the seven stars are the angels of the seven churches, and the seven lampstands are the seven churches. – Revelation 1:20

According to the Bible, the Lord Jesus revealed the meaning of the lampstand, the Lampstand = Church, then 2 Lampstands = 2 Churches. There are 2 Churches witnessing at the same time (Rev. 11:3,4) and it would be ‘a time’ = 2 Churches; ‘times’ = 4 Churches; ‘and half a time’ = 1 Church. From the 1st century till to the end of the Age, that’s why the witnessing period is 3.5 times, not 7 times. For more please read <The 7 Churches and 7 Stars>.

But could the “2 witnesses” means 2 individuals or 2 prophets? First of all, Lord Jesus has clearly told us that the 2 witnesses means Lampstands – Churches, so surely not 2 persons. They are also 2 olive trees. Generally, Bible use ‘tree’ to symbolise a big organization not individual person, such as the Church is a big global organization. Therefore, ‘2 witnesses are 2 worldwide Churches – 2 global organization, not 2 individuals or 2 prophets. But you know there are 7 prophets(angels) in the 7 Churches.

This period is the ‘3.5’ – the last half (3.5) of “One Seven” of “Seventy Sevens”. Same as the ’42 months’ (3.5) – the Jerusalem being trampled period. All these point to the same period, from 70 AD till Jesus come back (the end of the Age).

” ¹⁰ They cried out with a loud voice, “O Sovereign Lord, holy and true, how long before you will judge and avenge our blood on those who dwell on the earth?” ¹¹ Then they were… told to rest a little longer, ‘until‘… the number of their fellow servants and their brothers should be complete… ” – Revelation 6:10,11

“Lest you be wise in your own sight, I do not want you to be unaware of this mystery, brothers: a partial hardening has come upon Israel, ‘until‘ the fullness of the Gentiles (Saints) has come in.” – Romans 11:25

” ³ saying, “Do not harm the earth or the sea or the trees, ‘until‘ we have sealed the servants of our God on their foreheads.” ⁴ And I heard the number of the sealed, ‘144,000‘, sealed from every tribe of the sons of Israel:” – Revelation 7:3,4

We can say the those days; 1260 days; the wheat growing period; a time, times, and half a time, all refer to the proclaiming Gospel of God’s Kingdom period. This period is also what Jesus’ parable saying that gave ‘Talents’ [Saints] to servants (the first 12 that Jesus giving), and told them to make more ‘Talents‘ (Saints make more Saints).

Do you know how to define the end of a period? We know two methods for defining its’ ending, just as we define the end of a project. The first method is: To setup the ‘begin time’ and the ‘end date’. The second method is: To define what goals have to complete, and setup the ‘begin time’ but no ending time, when all goals have been finished, that means this project is complete and ended. Then, the project of ‘those days’ can be defined as ‘End‘.

Whichever method you use, the starting time is very important when beginning a project (for example, AD 70). Without a clear startup date, the project cannot succeed because there is no action and no official beginning.

We believe the ‘Proclaiming the Gospel’ project follows Method 2: achieving clearly defined goals. Since this project has already lasted about 2,000 years and contains many uncertainties, it does not have a literal ending date. Instead, its completion is defined by the achievement of its goals.

That’s why Jesus said no one knows the end date. Therefore, we are sure God must using the 2nd method that achieving specific goals within this period. In the other words, all goals have to complete one by one, ‘until‘ the last goal has completed, then the whole project can be defined ‘complete‘ and ‘end‘.

That’s why Bible says ‘until‘… the number of their fellow servants… complete, ‘until‘ the fullness of the Gentiles(Saints), ‘until‘ we have sealed the servants. So ‘until… the number complete’ refer to countable or quantifiable objects. In this case, the objects are the Saints, so how many Saints are there?

“I heard the number of the (goals) sealed, 144,000 “. That is to say, when the last ‘Servant‘ – ‘Saint‘ of 144,000 is sealed, then ‘the number‘ of their brothers are complete (fullness).

Then the period of ‘those days‘; 1,260 days; a time, times, and half a time; the Heavenly Woman Birth Pains period; the wheat growing period; sealing of the 144,000 Saints; proclaiming Gospel of God’s Kingdom; ‘42 months‘ and ‘3.5′ will be ended. It’s like the long iron legs Statue in Daniel’s dream, it will pass a long time, the feet and ten toes will be its’ ending.

“its legs [the 4th Beast- beginning from Roman Empire] of iron, its feet partly of iron and partly of clay [the end of the Age]. 

³⁴ As you looked, a stone [Jesus] was cut out by no human hand, and it struck the image on its feet of iron and clay, and broke them in pieces… But the stone that struck the image became a great mountain [Kingdom of God] and filled the whole earth.” – Daniel 2:33-35

²⁵ He [The 4th Beast-Roman Empire from AD 70] shall speak words against the Most High,
    and shall wear out the Saints of the Most High,
    and shall think to change the times and the law;

and they [Saints] shall be given into his hand
    for ‘a time, times, and half a time’.

²⁶ But the court shall sit in judgment [God’s Judgment Day – the end of the age],
    and his dominion shall be taken away [the 4th Beast],
    to be consumed and destroyed to the end.

²⁷ And the kingdom and the dominion
    and the greatness of the kingdoms under the whole heaven
    shall be given to the people of the saints of the Most High;

his kingdom shall be an everlasting kingdom,
    and all dominions shall serve and obey him.’ – Daniel 7:25-27

That is to say when the last saint of 144000 is sealed with the Father God’s name and the Lamb’s name on his forehead, the sealing work would be completed(Revelation 7:1-4). This would be the most significant sign pointing to the Ending.

“²⁵ Lest you be wise in your own sight, I do not want you to be unaware of this mystery, brothers: a partial hardening has come upon Israel, until the “fullness” of the Gentiles has come in.” – Romans 11:25

“⁶ And someone said to the man clothed in linen… “How long shall it be till the end of these wonders?” ⁷ And I heard the man clothed in linen, …it would be for “a time, 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 finished.” – Daniel 12:6,7

************

When the sealing of 144,000 is complete, then the sealed mysteries of God’s word will be opened and unlocked…

“⁴ But you, Daniel, shut up the words and seal the book, until the time of the end. Many shall run to and fro, and knowledge shall increase.” – Daniel 12:4

“³ And those who are wise shall shine like the brightness of the sky above; and those who turn many to righteousness, like the stars forever and ever. ” – Daniel 12:3

“⁴ but the wise [virgins] took flasks of oil with their lamps… ⁶ But at midnight there was a cry, ‘Here is the bridegroom! Come out to meet him.’ ⁷ Then all those virgins rose and trimmed their lamps.” – Matthew 25:6,7

⁴⁵ “Who then is the faithful and wise servant (the 7th Star?), whom his master has set over his household, to give them their food at the proper time? (reveals God’s word mystery) ⁴⁶ Blessed is that servant whom his master will find so doing when he comes. – Matthew 24:45,46

“Then I saw another mighty angel coming down from heaven… ² He had a little scroll open in his hand… ⁷ but that in the days of the trumpet call to be sounded by the seventh angel, the mystery of God would be fulfilled, just as he announced to his servants the prophets.” – Revelation 10:1-7

Therefore, if you see the mysteries of God’s words have unsealed or unlocked, that means the end is coming soon.

God’s mysteries include Mystery of God’s Kingdom, Mystery of Seventy Sevens, Mystery of the 144,000,

Mystery of ‘a time, times, and half a time’, Mystery of 1,260 Days, Mystery of Seven Churches,

Mystery of Babylon the Great, Mystery of the 4th Beast and its’ 10 horns and little horn, Mystery of the End Days period, …

But how do we confirm God’s mystery has been revealed? For there are many interpretations of God’s mystery.

If all your doubts or confusing questions disappeared after reading an interpretation of God’s mystery, then you would know that is the truth. This interpretation can fit and unlock any prophecies, parables, God’s word… You will then know that God’s mystery has revealed. We suggest you to read articles on our website to know more God’s mystery.

“At that time shall arise Michael, the great prince who has charge of your people. And there shall be a time of trouble, such as never has been since there was a nation till that time.” – Daniel 12:1

When all the 144,000 Saints are completely sealed, the 7th Seal is opened and 7 Trumpets have to blow… The 4 angels will release 4 destroy winds, the Great Tribulation has come!

So, during the time when God’s mystery is being unlocked, worldwide tribulation will occur, and the climax of Great Tribulation will come soon: it ‘has not been from the beginning of the creation that God created until now, no and never will be’.

“For in those days there will be such tribulation as has not been from the beginning of the creation that God created until now, and never will be.” – Mark 13:9

“Its end (Seventy Sevens ends) shall come with a flood, and to the end there shall be war. Desolations are decreed.” – Daniel 9:26

“For as in those days before the flood they were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, until the day when Noah entered the ark, ³⁹ and they were unaware until the flood came and swept them all away, so will be the coming of the Son of Man.” – Matthew 24:38,39

This period is also the end of Daniel “Seventy Sevens” prophecy, the ending sign will happen flood and wars simultaneously. Jesus also proved that ‘flood‘ would occur before his return. We now see both floods and wars taking place together around the world. The both have last many years till now, never before have both worldwide floods and wars occurred together for such a long time.

The 1st Trumpet: “The first angel blew his trumpet, and there followed hail and fire, mixed with blood, and these were thrown upon the earth. And a third of the earth was burned up, and a third of the trees were burned up, and all green grass was burned up.” – Revelation 8:7

We have now seen a third of the earth and a third of the trees burning. Eventually, all the grass will also be burned. This means the earth’s temperature will keep rising higher and higher until the seven bowls are poured out.

The Revelation says the 5th and the 6th woe will pass away, but it does not say that the disasters from the first four trumpets will pass away. Therefore, these four disasters may continue occurring until the seventh trumpet is blown.

The 2nd Trumpet: “The second angel blew his trumpet, and something like a great mountain, burning with fire, was thrown into the sea, and a third of the sea became blood. ⁹ A third of the living creatures in the sea died, and a third of the ships were destroyed.” – Revelation 8:8,9

The 3rd Trumpet: “The third angel blew his trumpet, and a great star fell from heaven, blazing like a torch, and it fell on a third of the rivers and on the springs of water. ¹¹ The name of the star is Wormwood. A third of the waters became wormwood, and many people died from the water, because it had been made bitter.” – Revelation 8:10,11

The 4th Trumpet: “The fourth angel blew his trumpet, and a third of the sun was struck, and a third of the moon, and a third of the stars, so that a third of their light might be darkened, and a third of the day might be kept from shining, and likewise a third of the night.” – Revelation 8:12

“Also it (the 8th Beast – the little horn – United States) causes all (Countries), both small and great, both rich and poor, both free and slave, to be marked on the right hand or the forehead, ¹⁷ so that no one can buy or sell unless he has the mark, that is, the name of the beast or the number of its name.” – Revelation 13:16,17

“Then I saw another beast (the little horn – United States) rising out of the earth. It had two horns like a lamb and it spoke like a dragon (the False Christ – False Prophet). ¹² It exercises all the authority of the first beast in its presence, and makes the earth and its inhabitants worship the first beast, whose mortal wound was healed. 

¹³ It performs great signs, even making fire come down from heaven to earth in front of people, ¹⁴ and by the signs that it is allowed to work in the presence of the beast it deceives those who dwell on earth…” – Revelation 13:11-14

“And the beast was captured, and with it the false prophet (the little horn – United States) who in its presence had done the signs by which he deceived those who had received the mark of the beast and those who worshiped its image.” – Revelation 19:20

“²³ Then if anyone says to you, ‘Look, here is the Christ!’ or ‘There he is!’ do not believe it. (False Christ would appear) 

²⁴ For false christs and false prophets (the little horn – United States) will arise and perform great signs and wonders, so as to lead astray, if possible, even the elect. 

²⁵ See, I have told you beforehand.” – Matthew 24:23-25

So, during in this ending time, the little horn will appear, it is also the false christ and the false prophet. It will be the ending of the 4th Beast, its 10 horns and the little horn.

The period ‘42 months‘ of Jerusalem being trampled will be ended, also the last symbolic ‘3.5‘ of “One Seven” of Seventy Sevens will be ended too, for the 6 goals will be fulfilled soon!

The 5th Trumpet: “And the fifth angel blew his trumpet, and I saw a star fallen from heaven to earth, and he was given the key to the shaft of the bottomless pit… ³ Then from the smoke came locusts on the earth, and they were given power like the power of scorpions of the earth… ⁵ They were allowed to torment them for five months… ⁶ And in those days people will seek death and will not find it. They will long to die, but death will flee from them.” – Revelation 9:1-11

What do the locusts of the 5th Trumpet symbolize?

It seems they symbolize COVID-19, which affected the whole world. The first four disasters corresponding to the first four Trumpets have already occurred, and afterward this worldwide disaster – COVID-19 took place. Therefore, we say it seems the woe of the 5th Trumpet appears to be COVID-19.

During the COVID-19 period, “people will seek death and will not find it. They will long to die, but death will flee from them“. This is because people could not go out and were locked in their homes, which caused many to feel depressed and willing to die.

This situation (COVID-19) has been going on for several years, a symbolic timing “5 months”, it has never happened before for such global scale, and most countriesimplementing lockdowns simultaneously.

And it seems after the 5th woe has passed, there will be a gap timing before the 6th Trumpet be blown. So maybe we are now in this gap period – the period of COVID-19 woe has passed but the 6th Trumpet is not yet blown, because Revelation 9:12 says,

⁹ Out of one of them came a little horn, which grew exceedingly great toward the south, toward the east, and toward the glorious land… ¹⁷ … But he said to me, “Understand, O son of man, that the vision is for the time of the end.” ¹⁹ He said, “Behold, I will make known to you what shall be at the latter end of the indignation, for it refers to the appointed time of the end.” – Daniel 8:9-19

²³ And at the latter end of their kingdom (the 4th Beast), when the transgressors have reached their limit, a king of bold face, one who understands riddles, shall arise (Donald Trump?). ²⁴ His power shall be great—but not by his own power; and he shall cause fearful destruction and shall succeed in what he does, and destroy mighty men and the people who are the saints. ²⁵ By his cunning he shall make deceit prosper under his hand, and in his own mind he shall become great. Without warning he shall destroy many. – Daniel 8:23-25

So during this ending period, ‘a king‘ of the little horn shall arise with bold face and understands riddles, he shall cause fearful destruction without warning. It will be the final ending period…

³⁵ …until the time of the end, for it still awaits the appointed time. ³⁶ “And the king shall do as he wills. He shall exalt himself and magnify himself above every god, and shall speak astonishing things against the God of gods. He shall prosper till the indignation is accomplished; for what is decreed shall be done. – Daniel 11:35,36 

³⁷ He shall pay no attention to the gods of his fathers, or to the one beloved by women. He shall not pay attention to any other god, for he shall magnify himself above all. ³⁸ He shall honor the god of fortresses (Golden Dome Missile Defense System?) instead of these. A god whom his fathers did not know he shall honor with gold and silver, with precious stones and costly gifts. ³⁹ He shall deal with the strongest fortresses with the help of a foreign god. Those who acknowledge him he shall load with honor. He shall make them rulers over many and shall divide the land for a price. – Daniel 11:37-39

It seems it is fulfilling today, a king (Donald Trump?) of the little horn (US) shall arise and makes fearful destruction. Let’s see how it develop…

The 6th Trumpet: “Then the sixth angel blew his trumpet, and I heard a voice from the four horns of the golden altar before God, 

¹⁴ saying to the sixth angel who had the trumpet, “Release the four angels who are bound at the great river Euphrates.” 

¹⁵ So the four angels, who had been prepared for the hour, the day, the month, and the year, were released to kill a third of mankind. 

¹⁶ The number of mounted troops was twice ten thousand times ten thousand; I heard their number.” – Revelation 9:13-16

When the 6th Trumpet is blown, the Great Tribulation will reach its climax, a third of mankind will be killed. What does the 6th Trumpet symbolise?

The number of mounted troops — twice ten thousand times ten thousand — symbolizes a worldwide volcanic eruption. The troops’ mouths like lions’ mouths represent the volcanic craters that spew out fire, smoke, and sulfur. Their tails like serpents with heads symbolize the flowing lava and magma. Perhaps these eruptions will begin at the great river Euphrates, as Revelation says: “Release the four angels who are bound at the great river Euphrates.”

And it seems “twice ten thousand times ten thousand” volcanoes erupt simultaneously all over the world, including volcanoes under the sea. That’s why Jesus said…

“And there will be signs in sun and moon and stars, and on the earth distress of nations in perplexity because of the roaring of the sea and the waves, ²⁶ people fainting with fear and with foreboding of what is coming on the world. For the powers of the heavens will be shaken.” – Luke 21:25,26

Rainbow angel of the 6th Trumpet: At the same time, a rainbow angel appear, the ending “there would be no more delay, ⁷ but that in the days of the trumpet call to be sounded by the seventh angel, the mystery of God would be fulfilled, just as he announced to his servants the prophets.” – Revelation 10:6,7

During the 6th Trumpet period, the mystery of God’s Kingdom that God told his servants the prophets will be fulfilled. The Kingdom of God of the 144,000 Saints will be sealed complete, so that no more delay of the End Day come. It is also possible that during this same period, God’s words of “prophesy about many peoples and nations and languages and kings” will be announced.

Two Witnesses of the 6th Trumpet: Because the sealing of the 144,000 Saints have completed, that’s why apostle John was told to measure and count those souls under the altar, make sure no one is missing (Revelation 11:1). Those souls refers to the 5th Seal the ones slain under the altar. They are the Saints – the chosen ones. They are waiting under the altar until their brothers’ number is complete. So, when the rainbow angel announces God’s mystery has been fulfilled, that means the number of 144,000 Saints are fully complete.

They are also symbolised by 2 witnesses who prophesy and witnessing ‘1260 days’. The two witnesses are the two lampstands, lampstand symbolises ‘Church’ and also ‘Olive Tree’. ‘Tree’ represents a big organization, so that means there are 2 worldwide Churches witnessing together during the symbolic ‘1260 days’, from the 1st century until the ending of the 6th Trumpet.

Please read <7 Churches and 7 Stars>. So, the two witnesses would finish their prophesy witnessing mission at the end of the 6th Trumpet.

” ⁷ And when they have finished their testimony, the beast (United States) that rises from the bottomless pit will make war on them and conquer them and kill them” – Revelation 11:7

“¹¹ But after the three and a half days a breath of life from God entered them, and they stood up on their feet, and great fear fell on those who saw them. ¹² Then they heard a loud voice from heaven saying to them, “Come up here!” And they went up to heaven in a cloud, and their enemies watched them.” – Revelation 11:11,12

“⁵¹ Behold! I tell you a mystery. We shall not all sleep, but we shall all be changed, ⁵² in a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trumpet (during the 7th Trumpet sounded in Revelation). For the trumpet will sound, and the dead will be raised imperishable, and we shall be changed.” – 1Corinthians 15:51,52

“But we do not want you to be uninformed, brothers, about those who are asleep, that you may not grieve as others do who have no hope. ¹⁴ For since we believe that Jesus died and rose again, even so, through Jesus, God will bring with him those who have fallen asleep. ¹⁵ For this we declare to you by a word from the Lord, that we who are alive, who are left until the coming of the Lord, will not precede those who have fallen asleep. ¹⁶ For the Lord himself will descend from heaven with a cry of command, with the voice of an archangel, and with the sound of the trumpet of God. And the dead in Christ will rise first. ¹⁷ Then we who are alive, who are left, will be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air, and so we will always be with the Lord.” – 1 Thessalonians 4:13-17

“At that time shall arise Michael, the great prince who has charge of your people. And there shall be a time of trouble, such as never has been since there was a nation till that time. But at that time your people shall be delivered, everyone whose name shall be found written in the book. ² And many of those who sleep in the dust of the earth shall awake, some (sons of the kingdom) to everlasting life, and some (sons of the evil one) to shame and everlasting contempt.” – Daniel 12:1,2

“⁴  Then he said to me, “Prophesy over these bones (144,000 Saints), and say to them, O dry bones, hear the word of the Lord. ⁵  Thus says YHWH God to these bones: Behold, I will cause breath to enter you, and you shall live… ⁹  Then he said to me, “Prophesy to the breath; prophesy, son of man, and say to the breath, Thus says YHWH God: Come from the four winds, O breath, and breathe on these ‘slain’, that they may live.” ¹⁰  So I prophesied as he commanded me, and the breath came into them, and they lived and stood on their feet, an exceedingly great army. ¹¹  Then he said to me, “Son of man, these bones are ‘the whole house of Israel’ (the whole of Heavely Israel).” – Ezekiel 37:4-11

“¹¹ But after the three and a half days a breath of life from God entered them (2 Witnesses), and they stood up on their feet, and great fear fell on those who saw them. ¹² Then they heard a loud voice from heaven saying to them, “Come up here!” And they went up to heaven in a cloud, and their enemies watched them.”” – Revelation 11:11,12

“⁴ Then I saw thrones, and seated on them were those to whom the authority to judge was committed. Also I saw the souls (sons of the Kingdom – 144,000 saints) of those who had been beheaded for the testimony of Jesus and for the word of God, and those who had not worshiped the beast or its image and had not received its mark on their foreheads or their hands. They came to life and reigned with Christ for a thousand years.” – Revelation 20:4

“¹¹ Then I saw heaven opened, and behold, a white horse! The one sitting on it is called Faithful and True, and in righteousness he judges and makes war… ¹⁴ And the armies of heaven (sons of the Kingdom – 144,000 saints), arrayed in fine linen, white and pure, were following him on white horses.” – Revelation 19:11,14

Seven Bowls have to pour out: “After this I looked, and the sanctuary of the tent of witness in heaven was opened, ⁶ and out of the sanctuary came the seven angels with the seven plagues, clothed in pure, bright linen, with golden sashes around their chests.” – Revelation 15:5,6

The 1st Bowl: “So the first angel went and poured out his bowl on the earth, and harmful and painful sores came upon the people (countries) who bore the mark of the beast and worshiped its image.” – Revelation 16:2. So maybe many countries will suffer volcanic eruptions that bring afflictions like sores.

The 2nd Bowl: “The second angel poured out his bowl into the sea, and it became like the blood of a corpse, and every living thing died that was in the sea.” – Revelation 16:3. Maybe volcanic eruptions will occur in the sea, causing every living thing in them to die(the sea became like blood).

The 3rd Bowl: “The third angel poured out his bowl into the rivers and the springs of water, and they became blood.” – Revelation 16:4. Maybe volcanic eruptions will occur in rivers, all living things death(became blood).

The 4th Bowl: “The fourth angel poured out his bowl on the sun, and it was allowed to scorch people with fire.” – Revelation 16:8. Maybe the earth would reach its hottest point, people (countries) will be scorched by the sun.

It seems the 4 bowls are related to each other, just as the disasters of first 4 Trumpets are also related to each other.

The 5th Bowl: “The fifth angel poured out his bowl on the throne of the beast, and its kingdom was plunged into darkness. People gnawed their tongues in anguish” – Revelation 16:10. It seems the situation is like the woe of 5th Trumpet. Maybe the Beast would be painful and willing to die because of sores (volcanic eruption?).

The 6th Bowl: “The sixth angel poured out his bowl on the great river Euphrates, and its water was dried up, to prepare the way for the kings from the east. ¹³ And I saw, coming out of the mouth of the dragon and out of the mouth of the beast and out of the mouth of the false prophet, three unclean spirits like frogs.

 ¹⁴ For they are demonic spirits, performing signs, who go abroad to the kings of the whole world, to assemble them for battle on the great day of God the Almighty. ¹⁶ And they assembled them at the place that in Hebrew is called Armageddon.” – Revelation 16:12-16

“¹² And the ten horns (European Union) that you saw are ten kings who have not yet received royal power, but they are to receive authority as kings for one hour, together with the beast (the little horn – United States). ¹³ These are of one mind, and they (the 10 horns) hand over their power and authority to the beast (the little horn).” – Revelation 17:12,13

“¹⁶ And the ten horns (European Union) that you saw, they and the beast (United States) will hate the prostitute (the Devils’ system – the great city has dominion over the kings of the earth). They will make her desolate and naked, and devour her flesh and burn her up with fire, 

¹⁷ for God has put it into their hearts to carry out his purpose by being of one mind and handing over their royal power to the beast (United States), until the words of God are fulfilled.” – Revelation 17:16,17

“The seventh angel poured out his bowl into the air, and a loud voice came out of the temple, from the throne, saying, “It is done!” 

¹⁸ And there were flashes of lightning, rumblings, peals of thunder, and a great earthquake such as there had never been since man was on the earth, so great was that earthquake. 

¹⁹ The great city was split into three parts, and the cities of the nations fell, and God remembered Babylon the great, to make her drain the cup of the wine of the fury of his wrath…” – Revelation 16:17-21

Why is the last bowl (the 7th bowl) poured into the ‘air‘? Is ‘the air’ related to Babylon the Great? Yes, and the 7th bowl poured into ‘the air’ indirectly proves that: Babylon the Great is the heavenly spirit ‘system‘ which has dominion ruling over kings on earth. Really? What does ‘the air’ refer to?

“in which you once walked, following the course of this world, following the prince of the power of the air, the spirit (Babylon the great) that is now at work in the sons of disobedience— 

³ among whom we all once lived in the passions of our flesh, carrying out the desires of the flesh and the mind (refers to a golden cup), and were by nature children of wrath, like the rest of mankind.” – Ephesians 2:2,3

 “And he called out with a mighty voice,

“Fallen, fallen is Babylon the great!
    She has become a dwelling place for demons,
a haunt for every unclean ‘spirit’,
    a haunt for every unclean bird (unclean angels),
    a haunt for every unclean and detestable beast (unclean spirits).”” – Revelation 18:2

“with whom the kings of the earth have committed sexual immorality, and with the wine of whose sexual immorality the dwellers on earth have become drunk… ⁴ The woman was arrayed in purple and scarlet, …holding in her hand a golden cup full of abominations and the impurities of her sexual immorality.” – Revelation 17:2-4

The final 7th Bowl: “¹⁹ The great city (Babylon the Great) was split into three parts, and the cities of the nations fell, and God remembered Babylon the great, to make her drain the cup of the wine of the fury of his wrath…” – Revelation 16:19

“¹⁶ And the ten horns that you saw, they and the beast (EU+ US) will hate the prostitute. They will make her desolate and naked, and devour her flesh and burn her up with fire, ¹⁷ for God has put it into their hearts to carry out his purpose by being of one mind and handing over their royal power to the beast, until the words of God are fulfilled. ¹⁸ And the woman that you saw is the great city that has dominion over the kings of the earth.” – Revelation 17:16-18

What does it mean of “the Beast and ten horns devour and burn up Babylon the Great”? Can the earthly kings burn up the devil’s spirit system? What is this system?

Why does the Bible say Babylon the Great split into 3 parts? Is that mean there are 3 main components in this system?

Yes, they are kings of the earth (the political system); the merchants of the earth (the trading system); all shipmasters and seafaring men (the transportation system). Thus, the Devil Satan created this Babylon the Great system which consists of these 3 portions (Revelation cheapter 18). These three engines drive the whole world.

Then how could the ten horns and the beast destroy this ‘system’? Maybe they will use ‘Artificial Intelligence‘ to destroy and burn up this system. That means ‘AI’ will crash and disrupt this traditional ‘Babylon System‘ and burn it up. The ten horns and the beast will make her desolate and naked. “Naked” means they will humiliate the Devil, Satan, because their system will be replaced by the lower-level creation of humans.
