The scriptures do not say the Jews, Israel, accept Jesus before the Day of the Lord. (the exception being the 144,000). The scriptures actually say to them not to desire for the Day of the Lord.
Amos:
18 Woe unto you that desire the day of the LORD! to what end
is it for you? the day of the LORD
is darkness, and not light.
RT, you are misunderstanding what it says about Elijah. Yes, he comes before the Day of the Lord. But the Jews don't become Christians before the Day of the Lord. Elijah's role is to prepare their hearts.
Just as John the Baptist prepared the hearts in his day.
It is only 144,000 will become Christians before the Day of the Lord. Those 144,000 will be instrumental in converting the rest of Israel, once the Day of the Lord begins, and the two witnesses are gone.
The 144,000 are the Jews in the Wilderness my brother. It is a figurative accounting of all Israel. 12 is the number of fullness, therefore 12 x 12 is ALL ISRAEL. In Rev. 7 the Angels are told to hold back the winds (Plagues/Hurt not the earth) until the 144,000 are Sealed in their heads. They are waiting for the Jews to reach their destination in the WILDERNESS/Petra.
They are virgins in that they have been cleansed by the blood. 12 x 12 x 12 is ALL ISRAEL.
No one is to desire the Day of the Lord because OF COURSE it would have been better if they had become Messianic Jews right? 2/3 of the Jews will be killed, only 1/3 survive. So no one should desire to be on earth during the Day of the Lord, no one is arguing against that point, what we are talking about is the facts of the matter however, and there WILL BE JEWS on earth, and they will repent Before the Day of the Lord, most Jews will stay blind until the fullness of the Gentiles have come in, only some will become Messianic Jews. So that point is moot, we are talking TRUTH or the reality of what is going to happen, factual facts so to speak.
The Passage says he turns them back to God before the Great and Terrible Day of the Lord.
1.
Malachi 4:5-6 Elijah turns Israel back unto God.
Elijah prepares the Jews' hearts during most of the first half of the 7 years. At day 1185, the abomination of desolation is setup, and the Jews begin fleeing to the Mountains (Petra as well). It will be a state of mass confusion.
This is simple math brother. I do not get how you can not get the two-timelines. The only part of the Beasts 1260 days that the two-witnesses are not around for is the 3rd Woe which is IMHO, all seven vials. So the difference in the two 1260 day periods is ONLY the Seven Vials !! Which means the Two-witnesses show up just a fraction before the Anti-Christ Conquers Jerusalem and becomes the Beast for 42 months.
70th Week Timeline
1. Rapture comes: there is 2520 Days left until the END/Jesus returns.
2. Two-Witnesses show up BEFORE the Day of the Lord. ( Israel repents....1335 Days left ? )
3. The Daily is taken away, Israel have been worshiping Jesus, now its FORBIDDEN. 1290 Days left.
4. The First Seal is broken, the Anti-Christ Conquers Jerusalem, he becomes the Beast, he defiles the Temple, there is 1260 Days left until the END/Jesus returns.
Seeing as how the two-witnesses die at the end of the 2nd Woe, just before the 3rd Woe which is IMHO, all Seven Vials, and that can only be a short time period because the scripture says the 3rd Woe comes QUICKLY, we can assume the seven vials last no longer than a month or two. And of course that fits right in with the time-line of the 1335-1260 that I show above.
You are getting the clues in Daniel 12 backwards brother. Why are you saying there is 1185 Days left when the Abomination of Desolation is put forth? Daniel was told by the Angel HOW LONG would be LEFT until the Lords return and he was told there would be 1260 days left. Then Daniel stated he did not understand still, and he asked HOW LONG UNTIL THE END !! Not how long unto the Abomination of Desolation shows up, not how long until the Beast shows up etc. etc. But how long until the END COMES !! Now relook at it brother in that context. In that context their is no AOD Showing up 1185.
WATCH BELOW:
Dan. 12:6 And one(ANGEL) said to the man clothed in linen(JESUS), which was upon the waters of the river,
How long shall it be to the end of these wonders?
7 And I heard the man clothed in linen, which was upon the waters of the river, when he held up his right hand and his left hand unto heaven, and sware by him that liveth for ever that it shall be for a
time, times, and an half;(1260 DAYS) and when he shall have accomplished to scatter the power of the holy people, all these things shall be finished.
So verse 7 says that from the time the holy people/Woman/Israel is scattered there will be 1260 days left until the END/Jesus returns. They wrote things backwards from us but that's what it says. But REMEMBER THE Emphasis is on How long SHALL IT BE TO THE END of these Wonders ! Then Daniel repeats that same line of questioning again, and s told two more KEY EVENTS, but the time frame is REVERSED ENGINEERED so to speak, Jesus/Angel is telling us how long it is from EACH EVENT he mentions until the END OF THESE WONDERS !! WATCH THIS:
Dan. 12:8 And I heard, but I understood not: then said I, O my Lord,
what shall be the end of these things? 9 And he said, Go thy way, Daniel: for the words are closed up and sealed till the time of the end. 10 Many shall be purified, and made white, and tried; but the wicked shall do wickedly: and none of the wicked shall understand; but the wise shall understand.
11 And
from the time that the daily [sacrifice] shall be taken away,
and the abomination that maketh desolate set up, there shall
be a thousand two hundred and ninety days.
12 Blessed is he that waiteth, and cometh to the thousand three hundred and five and thirty days.
1. From the time the DAILY is taken away and the AOD is set up, there will be 1290 Days left. NOT 1290 Days into the Seven Year Period. But this is a like-minded question to the first question, how LONG UNTIL THE END !! So even though it looks like the AOD is set up at the same time as the Daily (which I see as Jesus being worshiped) and I have always assumed the Abomination of Desolation happens at the time the Anti-Christ Conquers Jerusalem and becomes the Beast, I AM NOT STIFF/PROUD, I will look at the facts as they come, come as they may, and it SEEMS (Further study needed) that the AOD is set up 1290 days before the END/Jesus returns, and 30 Days before the Anti-Christ Conquers Jerusalem to become the Beast !! Requires more study.
2.
BLESSED is he that waits and comes to the 1335 Days. Since the other events are are from the EVENT to the END, so is this. So what is supposed to happen just before the Day of the Lord comes? (FIRST SEAL). Elijah is supposed to turn Israel back unto God. God doesn't count any further than this in reality as per Israel. They are brought back to life HERE, 1335 Days before Jesus Returns,
BLESSED is he that makes it unto the END of the 1335 Days. (2/3 will die).
Now, using this timeline makes more sense to me. If the Jewish peoples were attacked at the 1260 Day mark then fled, how could they escape the TYRANT BEAST who would be thrust upon then in a flash !! BUT EUREKA, If God is ordering the Angels to hold back the Plagues from coming forth in Rev. chapter 7, stopping Gods Wrath from coming forth until Israel are in their safe zone in Petra or the Wilderness, then this makes perfect sense. The 144,000 is ALL ISRAEL, God holds back the Plagues of which the Anti-Christ coming forth to Conquer is the very FIRST SEAL. Thus the coming Anti-Christ, some Geo-Political figure, not the King of Israel, BUT....Someone I grant that seems to have tricked Israel via a FALSE PEACE into giving him to much authority, power over them thus he seems to set up an Image unto himself before he Conquers Israel to become the beast at the 1260 Day mark. That matches Dan. 9:27 when we think about it.
The Jews will be fleeing to the wilderness during the last part of the 1260 days in
Revelation 12:6 as the two witnesses provide protection from the beast as they flee, from day 1185 to day 1260.
As I stated, you have the 1185 on the wrong end. Its the 1335.........TO THE END. The Jews will flee for 1260 Days. They seems to have a 30 day window to GET OUT before the Anti-Christ is allowed by Jesus to come forth and Conquer, and thus become the BEAST fir 42 Months or 1260 Days. It all fits quite well to be honest.
The two witness are killed on day 1260, come back to life on day 1263.5. The Jews are in the wilderness, the ones who are smart and flee out of Jerusalem right away.
There is NO WAY the Two Witnesses are killed on day 1260, that defies both LOGIC and MATH Brother. No use in me even debating that one with you. If you can add you can see that's wrong.
The seventh trumpet sounds, and there is the war in heaven in
Revelation 12:7-9. Satan cast down. It is then that the Jews, safe in the wilderness, get a chance to piece everything together that has happened at a whirlwind, flash flood, pace..... and they become Christians - realizing the enormity of having rejected Jesus and only to believe in the person as their messiah - who unexpectly betrayed them and the covenant that God is their God.
How do I know? Because it says so in
Revelation 12:10, as coinciding when Satan is cast down.
9 And the great dragon was cast out, that old serpent, called the Devil, and Satan, which deceiveth the whole world: he was cast out into the earth, and his angels were cast out with him.
10 And I heard a loud voice saying in heaven, Now is come salvation
[to the Jews], and strength, and the kingdom of our God
[to the Jews], and the power of his Christ
[to the Jews]: for the accuser of our brethren
[the Jews] is cast down, which accused them before our God day and night.
11 And they
[the two witnesses and the 144,000] overcame him by the blood of the Lamb, and by the word of their testimony; and they loved not their lives unto the death
[the two witnesses and the 144,000].
Satan and his Angels are cast out at the Sixth Seal, you don't really think stars fall yo earth do you? The untimely figs/Stars that are SHAKEN is the Demons and Satan being cast out of Heaven.
. You will really be on your game when you absorb what I wrote above.
