According to C.J.Lovik’s latest video (link below)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=55ku40JxIkM&t=42s
the 7 Year Tribulation Period will begin on October 12, 2024.
(Tishri 10 - The Day of Atonement on the Jewish calendar)

If the hair on the back of your neck is beginning to bristle please relax. C.J.Lovik has never claimed to be a prophet, nor has he ever claimed to be a mouthpiece for God. He is however a very intelligent, extremely gifted bible teacher whose detailed work is thoroughly engaging. He has guessed wrong on two previous occasions and readily admits that he could be wrong this time also. This video is but one of many he has produced. All his videos are fascinating and worth watching… even the older ones where he guessed wrong. But who knows, perhaps this time he will hit the jackpot.

Irrespective of the actual start date (let’s just refer to it as “day one”).
On “Day One” of the 7 Year Tribulation Period, both C.J.Lovik and I are in agreement that…

Two major astronomical events will occur:

1. The earth’s orbital speed will increase resulting in a return to the ancient 360 day calendar year.
(7 yrs x 360 = 2520 days of Tribulation)

2. The moon’s orbital speed will slightly decrease resulting in a return to the ancient 30 day calendar month.
(12 months x 30 days = 360)

In the past God has; a) stopped the earth’s spin (Joshua’s long day) and
b) reversed the earth’s spin (Ahaz’s sundial), so the following is not beyond reason.

From here on I’m presenting my thoughts, (not C.J. Lovik’s):

Half-way into the 7 Year/2520 day Tribulation Period:

The earth’s rate of spin will increase substantially resulting in a shorter 16 hour day for the 2nd half of the Tribulation Period (1260 days)

Rev 8:12 Then the fourth angel sounded: And a third of the sun was struck,
a third of the moon, and a third of the stars, so that a third of them were darkened.
A third of the day did not shine, and likewise the night.


The day will become ⅓ shorter during the “Great Tribulation”.
24 hrs minus 8 hrs
results in a new 16 hr day.
God will do this to preserve the lives of His elect who will enter into the 1000 year Millennial reign of Christ.

Matthew 24:22
“And unless those days were shortened, no flesh would be saved;
but for the elect's sake those days will be shortened.

Mark 13:20 “And unless the Lord had shortened those days, no flesh would be saved;
but for the elect's sake, whom He chose, He shortened the days.”


Today(before the Tribulation)
3.5 years equals 30,681 hours
(3.5 x 365.25 x 24 hrs = 30,681)

The 1st half of the Tribulation will have 441 fewer hours than today.
(3.5 x 360 x 24 hrs = 30,240)

The 2nd half of the Tribulation will have 10,521 fewer hours than today.
(3.5 x 360 x 16 hrs = 20,160 hours)

And how will the “Little Horn” (Antichrist) of Dan. 7:25 react to the new 16 hour day?
he shall speak pompous words against the Most High,
shall persecute the saints of the Most High,
and shall intend to change times and law.
Then the saints shall be given into his hand
for a time and times and half a time. ”

(or three and one-half years).

The Antichrist will “intend to change times”.
New “time standards” would have to be instituted to match earth’s new reality.
Existing clocks/calendars all worthless at this point.

Proverbs 4:18 does talk about the perfect day.
"But the path of the just is as the shining light, that shineth more and more unto the perfect day.."

Oh really? I wonder if he has read Matthew 11:25-27?
I disagree with all his prognostications, excepting how the earths orbit will be speeded up to 360 days and a possible increase to 30 days for the moon. [Note: the moons orbit is now 27 days]
Any change to the earth rotation speed, is not possible. Even a small acceleration would destroy every structure above the surface.

How this change will happen, is told to us in many Prophesies, of how the Lord will instigate a huge explosion on the suns surface, that will strike the earth will a multi billion ton mass of superheated Hydrogen Plasma. Isaiah 30:25-28 & 30, Isaiah 66:15-17, 2 Peter 3:7, +
It will only strike a glancing blow on the trailing side, giving the earth a push. Isaiah 13:13

Clocks OK, calendars, not.

Time is a slippery subject in scripture. I wouldn't hitch my eschatology (or any Word subjects for that matter) pony to a 24 hour earth only clock when it comes to the term "time" because for example, NOW is the time for a lot of things and this kind of "time" has nothing to do with the seconds on a clock

When the angel of Revelation stands with one foot in the sea and the other on the sand and declares there will be no more time, it does not mean ticks on a clock. It means that the "time" for the devil and his messengers to proliferate is OVER, finished, done.

Well, I think that meanswe can be fairly certain that almost nothing of any broad significance will happen at all that day, but that the Mr. or Ms. Lovik weiiol declare that some profound sapiritual event detectable only by the unco spiritual has happened that day,
If the hair on the back of your neck is beginning to bristle please relax.
It isn't.
. But who knows, perhaps this time he will hit the jackpot.
But that ain't the way to bet, is it?

1. The earth’s orbital speed will increase resulting in a return to the ancient 360 day calendar year.
There never was a 360 day year, There was a 360 day calendar, which was 5 days short of a real year, requiring annualy adjustment to sync it up with the actual seasons. And no, the earth's orbital time won't change.

(7 yrs x 360 < 7 years)

2. The moon’s orbital speed will slightly decrease resulting in a return to the ancient 30 day calendar month.
(12 months x 30 days = 360)
Turning these "dates" into even worse rubbish.
Half-way into the 7 Year/2520 day Tribulation Period:

I mean, sure, why not?

I'm gonna start running up some New Age clocks and watchs and calendars to be readyh for the impending time changes. Should make me a satchel full of money,
