Jesus gave us the key to unlock the secrets of the last days.

But somehow, we got distracted. Nephilim. Fallen angels. Strange details that tickled our ears and let the main message slip past us.

It wasn’t the details that would repeat — it was the pattern. And in particular, the timing.

And here’s the hard truth: we all missed it.

We all slept through it.

But now, it’s time to wake up and trim your lamps. Everything you’ve been waiting for has already happened.

Don’t believe us? Keep reading. You will.

In this article, we’ll look at the clearest timing indicator.

This was 120 years before the flood. And as in the days of Noah, there will also be 120 years at the end of this age — counting down a second time to the final destruction of the wicked and ungodly.

But this time, the world will be judged by fire.

The final 120 years of the age is the day of judgment. It is the sheep and goat judgement. It is the final harvest. It began when Satan fell “like lightning from heaven” (Luke 10:18). It is also when the first seal was opened.

But the critical question remains: when did this 120-year period begin?

At the time of writing (in 2025) we figure it began 118 years ago. And that puts us very, very close to the end.

Such a sensational claim demands sensational proof and we’re not going to disappoint. Let’s get straight into it!

Every Biblical prophecy has two sides — a positive side and a negative side. Such is required for balance. This is an essential principle that will keep showing up.

The seven-sealed scroll of Revelation 5, written on both sides, is no different.

Is the rider on the white horse Christ, or the Antichrist? It’s a question that has been argued at length, but an impossible one to answer conclusively. Unless you recognise the true answer is: they’re both depicted. Balance, remember.

The opening of the first seal initiated a 120-year showdown between the forces of good and the forces of evil.

As the 20th century dawned, the world brimmed with hope. Edison had invented the light bulb. Bell, the telephone. Electric cars were emerging. The Wright brothers had made the first flight. Tesla was unlocking secrets still unknown today. The future looked bright.

And then it all went wrong.

This coincided with the opening of the first seal — and the war in heaven.

The year was 1907.

The following year, on June 30, 1908, Satan was cast from heaven to earth like lightning. It was the Tunguska Event in Siberia — a mysterious atmospheric explosion that flattened 80 million trees yet left no impact crater and no debris. [Tunguska Event on Wikipedia]

It was like lightning that flashed from the east to the west, just as Jesus described His own appearing (observations and subsequent analysis reveal the trajectory was roughly from east to west).

That Jesus described both His own coming, and that of the adversary, as being like lightning is an example of balance. For every action there is an equal and opposite reaction. It’s a fundamental principle required by a God of order.

Twenty-six days later, on July 26, 1908, the FBI was formed. Tesla’s influence and support were sharply curtailed after 1907/8, particularly when J.P. Morgan withdrew backing, and the dream of free energy died. By 1910, electric cars had lost out to gasoline, ushering in a century of pollution.

Then in 1913, the US Federal Reserve (FED) and Internal Revenue Service (IRS) were established. Since then, 97% of the US dollar’s value has been eroded — a polite euphemism for stolen.

The white horse rider had gone out conquering, and to conquer.

The second seal — the rider on the red horse — war — was opened on June 28, 1914 with the assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand of Austria-Hungary, triggering World War I.

The third seal — the black horse rider — was opened on October 29, 1929 — Black Tuesday. This led to the Great Depression.

The fourth seal — the pale horse rider — was opened on July 16, 1945 with the first successful nuclear bomb test, followed just 21 days later by the bombing of Hiroshima.

The life of Moses stands as a second witness to the 120-year pattern.

Moses lived exactly 120 years, his life divided into three distinct segments of 40 years each. The biblical record gives us only a few pivotal moments: his birth, the killing of the Egyptian at age 40, the exodus at 80, and Israel’s entry into the promised land at 120.

History has followed the same rhythm.

The first 40 years — from 1907/8 to 1947/8 — saw the rebirth of the nation of Israel, rooted in the Balfour Declaration that emerged from World War I. In July 1947, the Roswell incident occurred, and that same year marked the start of the Cold War. These events started two races that would dominate the next 40 years — the space race and the arms race.

The six-day war took place in 1967, halfway through the second 40-year period, and at the exact mid-point of the 120 years. It is when Israel took control of Sinai, Gaza, the West Bank, East Jerusalem, and the Golan Heights.

The second 40 years closed in 1987/8. Many expected the rapture in 1988, but they misunderstood the pattern. It was not the rapture — it was the exodus. This year may mark the opening of the fifth seal, when those who were ready were told to “rest a little while longer” (Revelation 6:11).

The Cold War, which had dominated the era, began to unravel. Reagan and Gorbachev signed the treaty to eliminate intermediate-range nuclear missiles. The Berlin Wall fell in 1989, followed by the collapse of the Soviet Union in 1991.

That transition launched the final 40 years — a period defined by globalism and the New World Order.

The entry into the promised land came at the end of the 120 years. By the same pattern, the final entry point for us will be 2027/8 — unless, as Jesus warned, those days are shortened.

The sixth seal portends the day of the Lord’s wrath — the destruction of the wicked at the end of the 120 years.

The signs in the sun and moon refer to solar and lunar eclipses. But not just any eclipses. At significant points in history we have had four consecutive blood moons (called a tetrad) coinciding with a total solar eclipse. In the last 120 years these have occurred at the following times:

1949–1950 tetrad – coincided with a total solar eclipse on Nov 1, 1948 and another on Sept 12, 1950.

1967–1968 tetrad – had a total solar eclipse on Sept 22, 1968.

1985–1986 tetrad – bracketed by total solar eclipses on Nov 12, 1985 and Mar 9, 1987.

2014–2015 tetrad – contained the March 20, 2015 total solar eclipse (right between the 3rd and 4th blood moons).

The first three tetrads coincide closely with the 40-year, 60-year and 80-year marks.

The fourth tetrad was preceded in 2011 by the most powerful earthquake ever recorded in Japan, and one of the costliest disasters in history. It also foreshadowed yet more significant signs, in particular the eclipse “cross” of America on August 21, 2017 and April 8, 2024. These bracketed the Revelation 12 sign on September 23, 2017, which was a particular combination of stars and planets in the constellation virgo, and claimed by many to match the description at the start of Revelation 12.

The next tetrad will be in 2032-2033 — exactly 2000 years after the crucifixion.

In a previous article we discuss a modern interpretation of Daniel’s 70 weeks prophecy and show why the 70th week began in 2017, right when these cosmic signs took place.

That is when the sixth seal was opened. But importantly, not all the events within the sixth seal occur at once (nor do the events of any particular seal occur at once — they all represent an unfolding of events over a number of years).

Interestingly, since around that time, ultra-high net worth individuals have been building “bug-out” bunkers. A particularly notable one is Mark Zuckerberg’s 5,000 square foot “bunker” in Hawaii. Bill Gates reportedly has bunkers under every one of his homes. [Survival of the richest: The billionaires building doomsday bunkers] While they have not yet fled, it may not be too much longer before they do.

Now we can reveal the true meaning of Armageddon.

All attempts to understand this word have overlooked one very important detail: Hebrew is written right to left. We first need to reverse the order of the Hebrew letters before interpreting them. ChatGPT has assisted with this task.

Those familiar with the chiastic structure of the Bible — particularly the many parallels between Genesis and Revelation — would be unsurprised at the veiled reference to Genesis 4 in this word. It is an end to the wandering in the wilderness; the entrance to the promised land.

And it’s happening now. In our estimation, we’re already at the sixth bowl of wrath. That is why this is being revealed now. It was not meant to be known in advance. The last 118 years have been a test. Now that the test is almost over, the truth can be made known. This is why Revelation says:

Or in other words, if you don’t have oil in your lamp, it’s too late now to go and buy some.

And that oil? It’s love. It’s always been love.

In 2017, something else very strange happened. We saw our first interstellar visitor, a long cigar shaped rock from beyond the reaches of our solar system, called 1I/‘Oumuamua. Then, in 2019, there was another—2I/Borisov. And now there is a third, known as 3I/Atlas, which is going to pass extremely close to Mars in early October, 2025 and Jupiter in March, 2026.

These visitors and their trajectories are far beyond the realm of chance. In the seventh bowl it is said that “great Babylon was remembered before God, to give her the cup of the wine of the fierceness of His wrath.” (Revelation 16:19).

What does that entail? Her destruction is described a couple of chapters later:

The “sea” is not the ocean. It’s space. It’s our solar system. And a stone like a great millstone being thrown into the sea could well be this, or another, interstellar “visitor”.

And note the effects of this destruction:

Imagine, for a moment, that this “stone” contains some amount of antimatter. Should even a small amount of that come into contact with Mars or Jupiter the resultant explosion would be catastrophic.

This is highly speculative, of course, but informed by the Biblical narrative.

On the other hand, 3I/Atlas may just be a warning. Time will tell.

But Bill and Mark had better have their bunkers ready.

What we’re proposing here is a little different from what other authors teach. And we’re sure the reader will have many questions about things like beasts, witnesses, kings, heads, horns, crowns, women, trumpets, raptures, weddings and so on.

Unfortunately, many of those explanations will have to wait. More foundations need to be laid before we can hope to understand what is a complex, symbolic, multi-layered prophecy.

In our next two articles we’re going to revisit further aspects of these final 120 years, with a focus on the woman and the male child of Revelation 12. Then in a later article we’ll look at the second timing indicator from the days of Noah, and show how that relates to the “times of restoration of all things” (Acts 3:21) and the sending of “Elijah the prophet before the coming of the great and dreadful day of the Lord” (Malachi 4:5). That time began before the dates mentioned in this article. Long before. See if you can figure it out! Here’s a hint. It’s all about LOVE.
