The Final Decade

The next 1260 days, after the ‘Mid-Point’ of the seven (7) year Tribulation, is known as the “Wrath of God.” During these days (3.5 years/42 months) the world and its inhabitants will see and experience death and destruction as has never before been witnessed at the hands and direction of the Antichrist [Rev 13:10] and by God’s ‘Bowl’ judgments [Great Tribulation judgments] poured out from heaven. The death tolls will be staggering and terrible [Rev 16].
 
The Antichrist’s killing rampages will be unparalleled in human history [Rev13:7-10]. The earth and its people will also bear the consequences of the 5th, 6th, and 7th Trumpet judgments along with the 1st through 7th “Bowl” judgments [Rev 16:1-17].
 
At the end of the 1260 days, there will be 45 days when the Antichrist mobilizes the world’s armies under his command and prepares them for the Battle of Armageddon [Rev 16:16].  At the end of this 45 day period Jesus Christ will return to earth, destroy the armies of the Antichrist, and thereafter set foot on mount Zion establishing His kingdom and millennial (1000 year) reign of the new heaven and earth.
 
In conjunction with Christ’s return the 7th Trumpet will sound, the 7th Bowl of Wrath will be poured out upon the earth, a great earthquake will occur, the Antichrist and the ‘False Prophet’ [Rev 13:11-15] will both be thrown into the ‘Lake of Fire’ [Rev 19:20] and Satan will be chained and imprisoned in the abyss during Jesus’ millennial kingdom one-thousand year reign [Rev 20:1-3].
 
The end of the age and the destruction of Satan, evil and unrighteousness will have been accomplished as prophesied in both the Old and New Testaments. (*Post-Tribulation Rapture believers trust it occurs here [1Corinthians 15:51-52]).
 
In total these different time frames combined add up to 3635 days (approximately Ten [10] years) or the “Final Decade.” These observations and calculations span the time periods between the Ezekiel War and the culminating end of the Final Decade when Christ’s millennial kingdom is established.
