‘And she gave birth to a Son, a Male-Child, who will rule all the Nations with an Iron Scepter. And her Child was caught up to GOD and to His Throne. And the Woman fled into the Wilderness, where GOD had prepared a Place for her to be nourished for 1,260 Days’. -Revelation 12:5-6

The purpose of this study is to examine the notion of the 1260-Day Factor that the Revelation 12 Sign is tagged with, scripturally. This study strongly suggests that the 1260-Day Count is the Mid-Point of the Prophetic Time or ‘Shelf Life’ that the Great Sign is to have. Meaning? Could the Revelation 12 Sign actually have been insinuating the year of when the Harpazo or Rapture event is to occur? This ‘Shelf Life’ would be then 7 Years from its Astronomical Occurrence on September 23, 2017. Not necessarily to the day, although that is a Factor too.

This study will consider its Mid-Point Time Marker of March 6, 2021. Did anything Significant, Geo-Politically or Prophetically occur? Yes. If this assertion is to be true, it would put the Year of the Rapture occurring sometime after 2024. And this is exciting. This would not mean though that precisely on January 1, 2025, the Rapture Event occurs or even on the Anniversary, which would be. For one, the prophetic time-clock is not contingent upon the Gregorian Calendar nor the Rabbinical one.

As ‘Signs’ go, they are signaling an Event in the Future. This Mis-Interpretation is what led many to be misguided as to the whole Revelation 12 Phenomenon and Sensationalism that the Rapture was to occur ‘On that Day’. It did more Harm than Good, although many were ‘woken’ to Last Days Events. And perhaps that was 1 of the Major Prophetic Intentions, as a result. When the ‘Revelation 12 Sign’ came-and-went, many if not most who were the Proponents of the Rapture Day marked it as just another Disappointed Rapture Date Statistic and the Mockers and Scoffers made sure of that. And this was and still is the Folly of all those that insinuated, hoped and trusted that the actual Rapture Event was to have occurred on September 23, 2017.

What this study is proposing, 1st of all is that the Great Sign of Virgo did and did have a 1260 Day Prophetic ‘Shelf Life’ as well as its 7-Year one. What this study, however, strongly suggests is that the Revelation 12 Sign was not over and is not over just yet. How so? It had its 1260-Day Prophetic ‘Shelf Life’ intact still. Meaning? As Prophetic Typologies go, consider that the Man-Child that many correlated and still do to the Bride of Christ does not get ‘Raptured’-Out until after the 2nd Great Sign appears. This 2nd Great Sign is the Red Dragon.

In its Time
Thus, there will still be a Time where Pending Danger occurs 1st, then the Rapture Event. It is thereafter that the ‘Prophetic Clock’ shifts to Israel. So, when will this Scenario take place? At this Point, it is somewhat of an Educated Guessing Game. Certain things are known, and one can start with that. One does know that it will be after the 1260th Day, which is just its Mid-Point, thus, March 6, 2021. Consider that the Spring Equinox occurs on March 20, 2021. The Point? The Point is that perhaps the 1260-Day ‘Shelf-Life’ Coefficient has to do more with an Earthly Geo-Political and/or Religious Sequence in play. And that was?

Consider that on March 6, 2012, the Roman Catholic Pope held an Ecumenical Meeting in the House of Abraham. This was in the Ancient City of Ur, and in the backdrop of the Ziggurat dedicated to the Red Dragon and Moon God. Was this its Astronomical Connection? The Revelation 12 Sign was said to have appeared Astronomically back in September 23 2017. This is by the way another mis-conception of the Sign itself. How so? The Sign approximately configures Yearly. One is more convinced that the actual Revelation 12 Sign occurs and will have its actual Prophetic Fulfillment at the Mid-Point of the 7-Year Tribulation Period.

This is where the actual 1260-Day Count starts the countdown to Jesus’ Return with the Bride. It is where the 2 Halves of 1260-Day Counts converge. It is clearly described Biblically as being the ‘Halfway’ Marker. It is also an interesting time marker, as the Mark of the Beast will roll-out. And this is the Time Marker when the True Remnant of the Believing Jews will flee to the Mountains and Wilderness as Jesus warned them to do. This is the fulfillment of the Olivet Discourse. That is what Jesus was foretelling His Disciples or Israel to do when the Abomination of Desolation was and will be erected on the Temple and the AntiChrist enters the Holy of Holies, etc.

He will then sit on the Ark of the Covenant and proclaim himself ‘God’ and demand Absolute Worship and Allegiance by what the Mark represents, etc. This is also relevant to the other Misconceptions of, ‘No one knows the Day or Hour’, of the Rapture. This is a Misnomer. The Context and Question was not about when the Rapture was and is to take place. This was not the Topic of Jesus was discussing with His Disciples that represented National Israel during the Tribulation or Jacob’s Trouble. One’s Point is that the 2nd Half starts with the Revelation 12 Sign. The Discourse was about the 2nd Coming of Jesus.

Jesus gave clear Prophetic Indicators leading-up to that and the 2520-Day Count would precisely count when Jesus would be returning with the Bride, alongside Him. The Question posed was at the Beginning, when the Disciples asked, ‘When would Jesus set up His kingdom?’ This was what was qualified by Jesus as, ‘No one knows the Day or the Hour’, etc. Thus, the 2 Sets of 1260-Days would equal the whole of the time Sequence to be 2520 Days or 7 Years. The 7-Year Timespan is based on a Biblical 360 Day per Year Calendar. Mind you, the counting of the Days then will be shorter than the Gregorian Solar Year. This is why many will always be ‘wrong’ in counting the Years of the Tribulation.

Time Sequence
For example, if one states that the 7-Year Tribulation Period using the 365 days/year, the count will be 2555 days, not 2520. The difference in days will be 35 Days but within the same Year Count. However, there does then appear to be a Synchronization to occur as Daniel speaks of a 35 and 75 Day Count thereafter. Many suspect these are the Time Intervals for Jesus to purify the Temple and set-up His ‘Transition Team’ for the Millennial Kingdom much like a Presidential Elected Official sets-up a Transition Team to install the next Presidential Administration, etc. Thus, this will involve the Bride in helping set that up as ‘she’ will be the ‘Transition Team’, etc.

As far as the Revelation 12 Sign was and is concerned, the Astronomical Fulfillment that occurred in 2017 was perhaps a prelude and ‘Wake-Up Call’ to put the Church on notice of reaching this 1260-day Prophetic ‘Shelf-Life’ Mid-Point and 7-Year Countdown. It is a foreshadowing as the ‘Sign’ will occur at the Halfway Marker of the 7-Year Tribulation Period where it will occur literally, as mentioned. What that will be or look like will remain a Mystery until then. Nonetheless, the Sign’ will be to Israel, to flee. Israel will flee to the Mountains, and to Petra as many suspect for those remaining 1260 Days. Meaning? It was at the 1260th Day Marker that a Rapture Event happened.

This is why one is nonetheless convinced that the Rapture Event is associated with the Sign. Will it be a 7-Year Countdown then? And thus, the ‘Rapture’ of the Bride occurs, as the Man-Child before the coming of Lucifer by way of the Dragon and then the fleeing of Israel will occur after the Mid-Point of the Tribulation Period itself. The ‘Great Sign’ is thus indicative of a ‘Transference’ or perhaps a Change in Dispensations? It is a Dispensational Change as that is the time the Adversary is introduced, or the AntiChrist is un-masked at the Point of the Revelation 12 Sequence of Event post 2024. Presently, YHVH’s Spiritual People of the Church Age have taken Center-Stage, Prophetically.

But as the Bride of Christ goes Upward to Heaven by way of the ‘Secret Rendezvous’ Rapture, YHVH’s Earthly People, Israel goes Outwards to the Earth, and takes Center-Stage, etc. It is the reason for the major misnomer of the timing of the Rapture event. As many see this ‘Rapture’ scenario at the halfway marker of the 7-year Tribulation, most thus believe the Rapture of the Bride is/will be mid-Tribulation because of it. Such only narrow down on this segment of the overall storyline or timeline and ascribe then the Rapture event to this time stamp marker. In reality it is true to an extent because it is just 1 of 7 Raptures that occur in the book of Revelations, the book of 7’s.

And coupled with this mid-Tribulation theory will come along with the other erroneous theology of having the Church replacing National Israel. If one does this, one can see the logic behind such thinking, but it is an error. The Church has not replaced National Israel nor is the mid-Tribulation Rapture of the Man-Child therefore the Church. It is of Jesus as a Euphemism. And usually those that espouse the Mid-Tribulation Rapture Theory, and the Replacement Theology will also be Anti-Semitic. Such will see and do see the current and present National State of Israel as nothing more than a ‘Satanic’ Ploy of the Illuminati Rothschilds and Rockefellers, and others. Although this might be True, consider the prophecy in Ezekiel and the Olivet Discourse itself.  

Route to Restoration
The exact Sequence of Israel’s Apostasy or Falling Away will occur in its Reverse Order and is. As such, since 1947, Israel has been Reconstituting itself from Ezekiel’s ‘Bones’, back to the Promised Land, but in Unbelief and is still. But this Timeframe and Marker is indicative of just how close the Rapture Event is then. As the Generation that sees this ‘Fig Tree’ Reborn will not pass-away until Israel says, ‘Blessed is He who comes in the Name of the LORD.’ Realize that most that say they are Jews or identity as being Jewish are mostly Secular. In fact, for example, Tel Aviv is considered the Gay Capital of the World.

In Scripture, this is why Jerusalem is inferred as ‘Egypt’, ‘Sodom’ and thus is indicative of the Dire Spiritual State of YHVH’s Earthly People. This will only change Nationally, when Jesus returns. And this is not to say that there is currently a sort of Revival occurring in Israel with the Younger Generation, especially when it comes to accessing Social Media Platforms. It is estimated that Israelis are the ones that spend most Time Online and view Content as such. It has been a Great Inroad to have them know about the ‘Forbidden’ Scripture Passages like Isaiah 53 and see the deliberate Mis-Information about Jesus, their very own Messiah.

Nonetheless, what will startle many, if not most Jews and the World at large, will be the Rapture Event itself of the Church Age Believers of their Jewish Jesus. Although the coming of the ‘Dragon’ that will appear thereafter, that is the AntiChrist will explain the Rapture away with his own ‘Lying Signs and Wonders’. Sadly, he will bring a coming Holocaust of the Jews much more horrific than what occurred during World War 2 and it is coming. While 1/3 of all Jews perished then, 2/3 will perish in the ‘Time of Jacob’s Trouble’. No doubt, the many Jews then that will come to Knowledge and Faith in Jesus as their true Messiah will take to Heart the Words of Jesus as prescribed on the Mount of Olives.

It was and is for that Last Generation that those Words in the 1st Century were stated by Jesus, as He confirmed the time markers of Daniel and John the Revelator for the Last Century. The Key? It is the 1260-Day Count that coincides with the Great Sign of Revelation 12. Now what that means or will mean, remains to be Fully Understood. Presently, for the Church Age Saints who are eagerly waiting for the Great Escape, the Blessed Hope, obviously will be looking or should be looking at this 1260th day shelf-life that occurs then on March 6, 2021 as the Half-Way Time Marker of the Sign’s 7-Year Countdown to the Rapture.

So, perhaps that is the Year when then a Rapture of the Bride of Christ is to occur. Now, based on Human Nature, many People will no doubt, once again put their Mis-Guided Hope and Trust on September 23, 2024 to be the Rapture Event itself. And once the Day comes-and-goes, it will leave many disillusioned and prophecy having another ‘Black Eye’ in terms of the Sign’s Credibility. However, this is just part of the Outcome that inevitably occurs. The next Question would then be, if the Rapture Event is to occur soon after 2024? Then what Day, Week, Month? One is and has always been partial to the Pentecost Season based on its Prophetic Typology.

Starting Points?
However, there is within that Assertion also a Debate as to when does Pentecost actually occur. Does Pentecost occur on the 50th Day after the 1st Sabbath after Passover or as one is more convinced that based on a New Understanding of Leviticus 23? Is there in fact a Double-Count to then be on the 99th day, when ‘Pentecost Fully Comes’? Consider that, as Pentecost is the ‘Middle’ Feast of YHVH and corresponds to the 4th or Middle Stem in the Menorah Typology, it has to then have its 2 Halves.

There is a 2-Fold Segment of Pentecost corresponding to the Feasts and Menorah Branches. Thus, the start of the Pentecost Season corresponds to the Spring Feasts. And its end of the Season of the Wheat Harvest or fulfillment as in ‘When Pentecost Fully Came’, in Mid-July to Mid-September Timeframe corresponding to the Fall Feasts. Now circling back to the Rebirth of Israel as a Nation? Consider the following Thought about this Prophetic Time Marker.

Many believe it is the single most Prophetic Piece of the ‘Prophetic Puzzle’ to Date. And Israel has been a sort of Countdown to the Rapture Event itself and eventually to the 2nd Coming of Jesus. This study however presents the Notion that the Rebirth of Israel was a Trifecta of Events or of Years. There was a 3-Stage Reconstitution of Israel, the Biblical Israel of the Bible and it occurred in 3 Successive Years. It was on November 29, 1947 that the U.N. Partition Plan was ratified by the General Assembly. This essentially created the Nation of Israel and Palestine.

1947: Partition Plan    
1948: Declaration of Independence  
1949: General Assembly

However, this 2-State Solution was rejected by the Palestinian Muslims and Total War was declared against Israel. It was then on May 14, 1948 that David Ben Gurion declared Israel’s Independence. It was Israel who accepted the U.N. Partition Plan and in its Defense, embarked on the War of Independence and won. This occurred after defeating the well Soviet-Equipped 7-Muslim Armies, etc. However, it was not until May 11, 1949 that the U.N. passed the Motion to admit Israel as a Full-Fledged Sovereign Nation into the Family of Nations. The point?

Many who study End Times have started the ‘Countdown’ from either 1947 or 1948 primarily attributing the 70 Years from 1948 that marked 2018 as the start of the Psalm 90 Prophetic Countdown. But what if the Countdown is actually from 1952? 70 years from 1949 is 2022. However, the Year 2024 has the 7-Year synchronizing with the Revelation 12 Sign.

Based on Sabbatical Cycles since Jesus’ birth in -3 BC and 28 AD reading of Isaiah as being the Jubilee Year Proclamation, it made 2022 the End and Beginning of a Sabbath Cycle or Shemitah, etc. Then consider the following, if in 32 AD, Jesus was 33 years old, it would be 39 years to the destruction of the 2nd Temple in 70 AD. Then if one took 30 AD, the Year that Jesus started His Public Ministry, then 30 AD + a 40 Year Factor of ‘Testing’ is when the Temple, Jerusalem and Israel was judged, i.e., in 70 AD.

This Timeframe could very well be the ‘Season’ or Window of when the Church Age is to End and the Transference to Israel is to Begin. One has nonetheless looked at the March 6, 2021 Half-Way Time Marker. It is when the Pope essentially made a Deal with Islam and Judaism. March 6 , 2021 was the 65th Day of the Year in the Gregorian Calendar with 300 Days remaining until the End of the Year. Coincidence?
