"Tribulation Start Time?"

 
OK so I have read thousands of timelines and timecharts and I have to say that in the Bride of Christ there are some of the most intelligent people I have ever seen.   The total love and dedication to watch and read the Bible is overwhelming right now.   I believe to be wise is to take these timelines and look at a best case scenario and a worst case scenario.  

What EVERYONE has in common is that the rapture is very, very close.

Here are some theories and I am just sorta summarizing them, not so we can debate which one makes the most sense, or all the errors I made here because I am doing this off the top of my head from the 3 years that I have studied these timelines and about 3 hours a day that I study so you do the math....but just the fact that Jesus said we would KNOW THE SEASON....and doesn't it seem that the Lord is pulling all of these groups together into one? 

Midpoint Rapture with Blood Moons signifying the End:    This theory says we started the tribulation in 2008 with the speech Obama gave to confirm the covenant with many with the sign of the dragon (Draco) during his speech and that April 2012 is the midpoint and the rapture should happen by then.....that the blood moons of 2014/2015 represents the signs of the return of Christ.   They say that 2008 was the beginning of a sabattical cycle.    This one I follow very closely because many people have heard out loud from the Lord, behold the son of perdition has been revealed.  However I would be shocked to know we were in the first half of the tribulation because from the visions I have had of the world government, it is like the twilight zone.   But sometimes you find yourself in a situation and you cannot believe you are really in it!    But if the Lord has us here to the middle to warn the people of the mark until April 2012, then the Lord is quite merciful.    This theory says that the horses are roaming the earth and that the judgements of revelation have begun, the earthquakes, famines, etc....that we are here to help the people get through these judgments to repent before the mark comes....that the Lord will rescue us right before the mark is going to start being enforced in 2012.

Pretrib with Blood Moons signifying the Start:   Some people say that 2014/2015 is the start of the tribulation because everytime something major happens with Israel, it is near the start of the tetrad....and that 2015 is the beginning of a new sabbatical cycle.   The argument uses that the healthcare law starts really going into effect in 2013/2014 and the chip is required then....that a lot of the technology out there is still ramping up and is not where it quite needs to be yet.....that 2012 is probably going to be a huge time of desensitizing people to take on new technologies....ie the ADT Pulse technology that sees in your home from your cell phone, people are being desensitized to other people seeing inside their home, seeing them without clothes on the airport body scanners, etc.     And the bride has to go through 3 1/2 years of a quasi tribulation period of purification and events foreshadowing other events in order to warn the people of the real event before the rapture happens near the end of 2012 (commercialized Mayan calendar end date)....and events like the 9/11/2011 speech Obama made in front of where the twin towers stood was a foreshadow of the main event that would happen in the temple of Jerusalem later.....and the speech Obama made in 2008 that appeared to confirm the covenant with many would set the stage for him to take the helm of the United Nations later for the real covenant.    And that the events like the earthquakes, volcanoes, etc. are not judgements from God, but the use of weapons by the Illuminati to force a new world order because the earth needs to depopulate....that these events are the birth pangs and the days of Noah prior to the rise of the antichrist's true power.....that we know and see who the antichrist is, but that we are to point these things out because when we leave people will remember what we said.   This theory uses the fact that there are a lot of people in the Bride that still need to be purified in holiness before the rapture and that could mean going through famines, global drought, etc.   During this time the Lord would take care of the Bride by helping her multiply food and work in major supernatural works.....and we have to be mocked and tested now in order to be strong enough to move into a whole new supernatural realm later. 

Pretrib with Blood Moons signifying the Middle:  This theory uses the signs of the heavens soley.   I have seen charts showing how the blood moons signify how the Jews must run into Petra for 1260 days....and this chart also shows how the devil will be chained into the lake of fire in December 2020 (during Hanukkah) for 1000 years.....and how the sign of the wedding is on July 2, 2019.   The sign of Revelation 12 is on the Feast of Rosh Hashanah 2011, and then on 11/11/2011 it shows how the dragon itself is being born...which to me shows how the dragon is going to try to devour the child.   There seems to be a rapture in this timeline somewhere from 2011 to mid2012 based upon the 1260 day cycle.   This is the one I have been following just in case anyone wants to know where I am coming from and I do not claim that I am right.  

I know everyone has their own beliefs and have heard from the Lord in a mighty way, but I just wanted to let you guys know that I do track all of your timelines so that I could formulate an idea of what is happening.    This to me is fascinating stuff.   I do not go around judging people and telling them they are wrong because I notice how the Lord will give me a prophetic dream and it can come true 3 or more times over a course of time in not a way I expected....but He also gives me a prophetic dream and it will come about EXACTLY like the dream within a month.   So I do not know how this rapture scenario is going to go.  

These are my checkpoints through this marathon.....
