When will the Rapture take place? That is the wrong question. Everything is about Jesus. The correct question is, When is Jesus coming again?
There is a relatively straight forward answer. The answer is based on 3 things: 1) Daniel 12:12, 2) the Fall feasts and 3) the next Jubilee year.
1) Daniel 12:12
[12]Blessed is he that waiteth, and cometh to the thousand three hundred and five and thirty days.
The 1335th day of Daniel's 70th week is when every eye will (start to) see Jesus.
2) The 1335th day will be Tishri day 10. This is the FEAST known as the Day of Atonement or Yom Kippur.
3) The Second Coming will take place in the next jubilee year which should be 2029.
The Second Coming is a two week long event... starting with the 1st fall feast and ending with the 3rd fall feast.
The Second Coming will start with the 1st fall Feast, the Feast of Trumpets, on Tishri day 1 or Sept 8, 2029.
Every eye will (start to) see Jesus at the 2nd Feast, the Day of Atonement aka Yom Kippur, on Tishri day 10 or Sept 18, 2029.
The Second Coming will end on the 3rd Feast, the Feast of Booths, on Tishri day 15 or Sept 23, 2029.
When will Daniel's 70th week start? Daniel's 70th week will start 1335 days before Sept 18, 2029 or Jan 22, 2026.
This timeline is only good if 2029 is truly the next jubilee year.
What to look for in January 2026?
[15]And the serpent cast out of his mouth water as a flood after the woman, that he might cause her to be carried away of the flood.
Look for the flood before the Covenant with Many is confirmed in January 2026.
What happens to the flood?
[16]And the earth helped the woman, and the earth opened her mouth, and swallowed up the flood which the dragon cast out of his mouth.
[2]And I saw, and behold a white horse: and he that sat on him had a bow; and a crown was given unto him: and he went forth conquering, and to conquer.
The white horseman will go to earth with the bow, the rainbow of God, the promise of God that the earth would never be destroyed by a flood again. The white horseman will be given a crown symbolizing his authority to go conquering and to conquer the devil and his attempts to kill mankind for 3.5 years.
At the end of 3.5 years the white horseman will be taken out of the way and the antichrist will be revealed.
[7]For the mystery of iniquity doth already work: only he who now letteth will let, until he be taken out of the way.
[8]And then shall that Wicked be revealed, whom the Lord shall consume with the spirit of his mouth, and shall destroy with the brightness of his coming...
I believe the white horseman will be taken out of the way on or before July 5, 2029, day 1260 of Daniel's 70th week, when the Abomination of Desolation takes place. (I am not 100% sure of this interpretation but it is as good as any other I've heard.)
Look for the sacrifices to begin in Sept 2026. This is 2300 days before the end of Daniel's 70th week, January 20, 2033.
Are these dates FIRM? No. They depend on when the next Jubilee takes place and whether Tishri day 10 is really day 1335 or not.
Daniel's 70 weeks lasts seventy times seven or 490 years.
When Peter asked Jesus how many times to forgive, Jesus said not until seven times but UNTIL seventy times seven... UNTIL the end of Daniel's 70 weeks. See Matthew 18:21-22.
All unbelievers alive at the end of Daniel's 70 weeks go to hell because forgiveness ends at seventy times seven.
This is one reason why the Pre-Trib Rapture is a lie. If all of the saints are Raptured before the Tribulation starts then forgiveness would end at the Rapture because there would be nobody left on earth to give the Gospel and get people saved.
Bonus thought: We know about the 2520 days and 2550 days as described in the book of Daniel. However, 7 full years is actually 2555 days. Nobody accounts for the missing 5 days. I think the missing 5 days are the days between Tishri day 10 and day 15. Every eye will see Jesus during those 5 days.
God is going to slowly destroy the earth during Daniel's 70th week.
To Thine be the Kingdom and the Power and the Glory, Forever. Amen.
