According to the Bible, Michael the Archangel will be on Earth as a human during the Great Tribulation.
- Thread starter Michael The Archangel
- Start date
Daniel 12 |
| 1 And at that time shall Michael stand up, the great prince which standeth for the children of thy people: and there shall be a time of trouble, such as never was since there was a nation even to that same time: and at that time thy people shall be delivered, every one that shall be found written in the book. |
| 2 And many of them that sleep in the dust of the earth shall awake, some to everlasting life, and some to shame and everlasting contempt. |
| 3 And they that be wise shall shine as the brightness of the firmament; and they that turn many to righteousness as the stars for ever and ever. |
Here are the verses in the KJV just in case we need a reference point.
As a human?

Revelations 12 goes into more detail saying:
After this Dragon is defeated, then he falls as a star to Earth and opens the bottomless pit and let's out the Angel of the Abyss who inhabits the image of the Beast that is the Antichrist. That's how we know that this chain of events occurs during the Great Tribulation.
Another similar passage in 1 Thessalonians 5:
That is the middle of the Tribulation when the saints have been killed and stand up and ascend into heaven. Michael the Archangel will also stand up.
Revelations 12 goes into more detail saying:
"12 And there appeared a great wonder in heaven; a woman clothed with the sun, and the moon under her feet, and upon her head a crown of twelve stars:
2 And she being with child cried, travailing in birth, and pained to be delivered.
3 And there appeared another wonder in heaven; and behold a great red dragon, having seven heads and ten horns, and seven crowns upon his heads.
4 And his tail drew the third part of the stars of heaven, and did cast them to the earth: and the dragon stood before the woman which was ready to be delivered, for to devour her child as soon as it was born.
5 And she brought forth a man child, who was to rule all nations with a rod of iron: and her child was caught up unto God, and to his throne.
6 And the woman fled into the wilderness, where she hath a place prepared of God, that they should feed her there a thousand two hundred and threescore days.
7 And there was war in heaven: Michael and his angels fought against the dragon; and the dragon fought and his angels,
8 And prevailed not; neither was their place found any more in heaven.
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."
After this Dragon is defeated, then he falls as a star to Earth and opens the bottomless pit and let's out the Angel of the Abyss who inhabits the image of the Beast that is the Antichrist. That's how we know that this chain of events occurs during the Great Tribulation.
Another similar passage in 1 Thessalonians 5:
"For when they shall say, Peace and safety; then sudden destruction cometh upon them, as travail upon a woman with child; and they shall not escape."
In 1 Thessalonians 4 it describes the dead in Christ rising at the middle of the Tribulation and includes Michael the Archangel, but with no clear detail:
"For if we believe that Jesus died and rose again, even so them also which sleep in Jesus will God bring with him.
15 For this we say unto you by the word of the Lord, that we which are alive and remain unto the coming of the Lord shall not prevent them which are asleep.
16 For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first:
17 Then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord."
I don't think so. Michael didn't have to be human to "standeth for the children of thy people", and "stand up" is the same Hebrew word 05975 עָמַד `amad, so no change in nature is implied.
In context it seems Christ is alluding to Daniel when He says this:
15 "Therefore when you see the`abomination of desolation,' spoken of by Daniel the prophet, standing in the holy place " (whoever reads, let him understand),
16 "then let those who are in Judea flee to the mountains.
17 "Let him who is on the housetop not go down to take anything out of his house.
18 "And let him who is in the field not go back to get his clothes.
19 "But woe to those who are pregnant and to those who are nursing babies in those days!
20 "And pray that your flight may not be in winter or on the Sabbath.
21 "For then there will be great tribulation, such as has not been since the beginning of the world until this time, no, nor ever shall be.
22 "And unless those days were shortened, no flesh would be saved; but for the elect's sake those days will be shortened. (Matt. 24:15-22 NKJ)
24 "But in those days, after that tribulation, the sun will be darkened, and the moon will not give its light;
25 "the stars of heaven will fall, and the powers in the heavens will be shaken.
26 "Then they will see the Son of Man coming in the clouds with great power and glory.
27 "And then He will send His angels, and gather together His elect from the four winds, from the farthest part of earth to the farthest part of heaven. (Mk. 13:24-27 NKJ)
Angels are stars, the angelic powers of the heavens will be shaken. First Michael and his angels booted Satan and his angels out of heaven (Rev. 12:7-9). At end of the week the sign of Christ's coming appears, an "opening" in the sky and flashes of lightning.
11 Now I saw heaven opened, and behold, a white horse. And He who sat on him was called Faithful and True, and in righteousness He judges and makes war.
12 His eyes were like a flame of fire, and on His head were many crowns. He had a name written that no one knew except Himself.
13 He was clothed with a robe dipped in blood, and His name is called The Word of God.
14 And the armies in heaven, clothed in fine linen, white and clean, followed Him on white horses.
15 Now out of His mouth goes a sharp sword, that with it He should strike the nations. And He Himself will rule them with a rod of iron. He Himself treads the winepress of the fierceness and wrath of Almighty God.
16 And He has on His robe and on His thigh a name written: KING OF KINGS AND LORD OF LORDS. (Rev. 19:11-16 NKJ)
First Christ and his angels cast down Satan's UFO fleet to the earth, then they proceed to slay the Beast False prophet and Nephilim "mighty" at Armageddon
21 It shall come to pass in that day That the LORD will punish on high the host of exalted ones, And on the earth the kings of the earth.
22 They will be gathered together, As prisoners are gathered in the pit, And will be shut up in the prison; After many days they will be punished. (Isa. 24:21-22 NKJ)
13 And the stars of heaven fell to the earth, as a fig tree drops its late figs when it is shaken by a mighty wind.
14 Then the sky receded as a scroll when it is rolled up, and every mountain and island was moved out of its place.
15 And the kings of the earth, the great men, the rich men, the commanders, the mighty men, every slave and every free man, hid themselves in the caves and in the rocks of the mountains,
16 and said to the mountains and rocks, "Fall on us and hide us from the face of Him who sits on the throne and from the wrath of the Lamb!
17 "For the great day of His wrath has come, and who is able to stand?"
(Rev. 6:13-17 NKJ)
But just before that Michael and His angels go forth and gather together all the elect not only from Israel, but wherever on earth they are. These had missed the rapture, but then repented and now believe.
Contrary to the the popular view of angels as spirits, the Bible shows they have physical bodies and enter our realm of existence through a portal or door. They don't materialize bodies. On this see:

This text puts the Rapture after the Beast tries to exterminate the church, which technically then is pre-wrath bowls, but close to Mid-trib if the tribulation spans only 75 days:
11 "And the smoke of their torment ascends forever and ever; and they have no rest day or night, who worship the beast and his image, and whoever receives the mark of his name."
12 Here is the patience of the saints; here are those who keep the commandments of God and the faith of Jesus.
13 Then I heard a voice from heaven saying to me, "Write:`Blessed are the dead who die in the Lord from now on.'" "Yes," says the Spirit, "that they may rest from their labors, and their works follow them."
14 Then I looked, and behold, a white cloud, and on the cloud sat One like the Son of Man, having on His head a golden crown, and in His hand a sharp sickle.
15 And another angel came out of the temple, crying with a loud voice to Him who sat on the cloud, "Thrust in Your sickle and reap, for the time has come for You to reap, for the harvest of the earth is ripe."
16 So He who sat on the cloud thrust in His sickle on the earth, and the earth was reaped. (Rev. 14:11-16 NKJ)
11 "And from the time that the daily sacrifice is taken away, and the abomination of desolation is set up, there shall be one thousand two hundred and ninety days.
12 "Blessed is he who waits, and comes to the one thousand three hundred and thirty-five days.
(Dan. 12:11-12 NKJ)
At 1,260 days the False Christ morphs into the Beast and discards any pretense of Christianity (Dan. 9:27; Rev 13:5). It takes him 30 days to set up the abomination of Desolation AI Network in his image, to enforce the Mark Membership only economy. Then he earnestly tries to exterminate the Church, and Israel. That is the Great Tribulation, it lasts another 45 days. All who endure to the end of this period will be raptured.
The Pre-Wrath Rapture of the Church | End Time News

Daniel 10:12-21; 1Thessalonians 4:16; Jude 1:9 and Rev 12:7-9 are the only verses in the Bible that mention Michael the Archangel. You told me there were more, but never gave me any. Can you provide more scriptures.
Where in Rev 12:1-17 does it say anything about what you posted about Satan falling as a star to Earth and opens the bottomless pit and let's out the Angel of the Abyss as again, you are mixing up scriptures to make them line up with your theories.
Rev 12:7 And there was war in heaven: Michael and his angels fought against the dragon; and the dragon fought and his angels
Rev 12:8 And prevailed not; neither was their place found any more in heaven.
Rev 12:9 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.
The woman represents the body of Christ as we are told by Jesus in Matthew 24:15-21 to flee when we see the abomination of desolation, spoken of by Daniel the prophet, stand in the holy place. Rev 12:1 John is shown a great sign in heaven as he sees a vision of a woman clothed with the sun and the moon under her feet. The sun is representative of the glory and brilliance of Gods righteousness that surrounds her and protects her. Under her feet the moon which is illustrative of eternity, light, Gods faithfulness in His Son Jesus who is the greater light of the gospel age as Jesus being the light of the world that shines in darkness, but the darkness can not comprehend the light, Psalms 72:5-7; Isaiah 2:3-5; Jeremiah 31:35-37; Isaiah 30:26-33; John 1:1-5.
This happens during the seventh trumpet after the first six trumpets of God's great wrath being poured out into the world. For then shall be great tribulation, such as was not since the beginning of the world to this time, no, nor ever shall be. This will then be the time of the 3 1/2 years of the beast out of the sea that gives power to the beast out of the earth being the false prophet/son of perdition, that promises peace and safety and forces all to take the mark of this beast or die a martyr's death, Rev 13.
After the war in heaven Michael the Archangel is never mentioned again.

Do you like really understand Rev 12 ? Will test your knowledge on this question
Revelation 12:4 "And his tail drew the third part of the stars of heaven, and did cast them to the earth: and the dragon stood before the woman which was ready to be delivered, for to devour her child as soon as it was born."
Who are the third ?
Satan cast his angels down to earth after the Fall. Their mission was to prevent the birth of Christ:
3 And another sign appeared in heaven: behold, a great, fiery red dragon having seven heads and ten horns, and seven diadems on his heads.
4 His tail drew a third of the stars of heaven and threw them to the earth. And the dragon stood before the woman who was ready to give birth, to devour her Child as soon as it was born. (Rev. 12:3-4 NKJ)
One way they sought to do this is by corrupting the image of God in man with the image of angels. They deceived mankind that "unfallen angels" would produce offspring who were immortal, and that was the "workaround" God's denying humanity access to the Tree of life (Gen. 3:24)
1 When humankind began to multiply on the face of the earth, and daughters were born to them,
2 the sons of God saw that the daughters of humankind were beautiful. Thus they took wives for themselves from any they chose.
3 So the LORD said, "My spirit will not remain in humankind indefinitely, since they are mortal. They will remain for 120 more years."
4 The Nephilim were on the earth in those days (and also after this) when the sons of God were having sexual relations with the daughters of humankind, who gave birth to their children. They were the mighty heroes of old, the famous men. (Gen. 6:1-4 NET)
The Nephilim were Satan's Fallen angels. They also married and bore children like the sons of God. They are mentioned first in Gen. 6:4 because they were instrumental in the "demon-human conspiracy" against the sons of God. Its likely they paraded their illicit unions before the eyes of the "Watchers", porn 24/7 that eventually caused some of the sons of God (angels) to leave their proper domain and seek "strange flesh"
6 And the angels who did not keep their proper domain, but left their own abode, He has reserved in everlasting chains under darkness for the judgment of the great day;
7 as Sodom and Gomorrah, and the cities around them in a similar manner to these, having given themselves over to sexual immorality and gone after strange flesh, are set forth as an example, suffering the vengeance of eternal fire.
(Jude 1:6-7 NKJ)
The Nepilim and sons of God Angels who corrupted the image of God in man weren't permitted to return to heaven when the flood came, and they all died physically:
20 The waters prevailed fifteen cubits upward, and the mountains were covered.
21 And all flesh died that moved on the earth: birds and cattle and beasts and every creeping thing that creeps on the earth, and every man.
22 All in whose nostrils was the breath of the spirit of life, all that was on the dry land, died.
23 So He destroyed all living things which were on the face of the ground: both man and cattle, creeping thing and bird of the air. They were destroyed from the earth. (Gen. 7:20-23 NKJ)
The angelic "sons of God" were imprisoned in Tartarus, a section separate from the Nephilim angels of Satan, the latter went to the Abyss.
As for the offspring of these angels, the "men of renown". Those who weren't evil went to prison, separate from human dead. Christ made a special trip to them to preach.
But the evil offspring of angels became the unclean spirits that with the Nephilim who didn't corrupt the image of God in man, who died physically in the flood; now their spirits wander the earth desperately seeking some semblance of corporeality by possessing insects, animals and men.
Nephilim Fallen Angels and the Sons of God | End Time News
The Nephilim: Satan's Fallen Angels 1 Now it came about, when men began to multiply on the face of the land, and daughters were born to them, 2 that the sons of God saw that the daughters of men were beautiful; and they took wives for themselves, whomever they chose. 3 Then the LORD said,

Well since the people are doing nothing and will not interpret the books correctly, then yes Michael the Archangel has to come in human form and do it for them.I don't think so. Michael didn't have to be human to "standeth for the children of thy people", and "stand up" is the same Hebrew word 05975 עָמַד `amad, so no change in nature is implied.
In context it seems Christ is alluding to Daniel when He says this:
15 "Therefore when you see the`abomination of desolation,' spoken of by Daniel the prophet, standing in the holy place " (whoever reads, let him understand),
16 "then let those who are in Judea flee to the mountains.
17 "Let him who is on the housetop not go down to take anything out of his house.
18 "And let him who is in the field not go back to get his clothes.
19 "But woe to those who are pregnant and to those who are nursing babies in those days!
20 "And pray that your flight may not be in winter or on the Sabbath.
21 "For then there will be great tribulation, such as has not been since the beginning of the world until this time, no, nor ever shall be.
22 "And unless those days were shortened, no flesh would be saved; but for the elect's sake those days will be shortened. (Matt. 24:15-22 NKJ)
24 "But in those days, after that tribulation, the sun will be darkened, and the moon will not give its light;
25 "the stars of heaven will fall, and the powers in the heavens will be shaken.
26 "Then they will see the Son of Man coming in the clouds with great power and glory.
27 "And then He will send His angels, and gather together His elect from the four winds, from the farthest part of earth to the farthest part of heaven. (Mk. 13:24-27 NKJ)
Angels are stars, the angelic powers of the heavens will be shaken. First Michael and his angels booted Satan and his angels out of heaven (Rev. 12:7-9). At end of the week the sign of Christ's coming appears, an "opening" in the sky and flashes of lightning.

14 And the armies in heaven, clothed in fine linen, white and clean, followed Him on white horses.
15 Now out of His mouth goes a sharp sword, that with it He should strike the nations. And He Himself will rule them with a rod of iron. He Himself treads the winepress of the fierceness and wrath of Almighty God.
16 And He has on His robe and on His thigh a name written: KING OF KINGS AND LORD OF LORDS. (Rev. 19:11-16 NKJ)
First Christ and his angels cast down Satan's UFO fleet to the earth, then they proceed to slay the Beast False prophet and Nephilim "mighty" at Armageddon
21 It shall come to pass in that day That the LORD will punish on high the host of exalted ones, And on the earth the kings of the earth.
22 They will be gathered together, As prisoners are gathered in the pit, And will be shut up in the prison; After many days they will be punished. (Isa. 24:21-22 NKJ)
13 And the stars of heaven fell to the earth, as a fig tree drops its late figs when it is shaken by a mighty wind.
14 Then the sky receded as a scroll when it is rolled up, and every mountain and island was moved out of its place.
15 And the kings of the earth, the great men, the rich men, the commanders, the mighty men, every slave and every free man, hid themselves in the caves and in the rocks of the mountains,

So let's go through these verses you posted that are my message that I have given you and you refuse to acknowledge.
"21 "For then there will be great tribulation, such as has not been since the beginning of the world until this time, no, nor ever shall be.
22 "And unless those days were shortened, no flesh would be saved; but for the elect's sake those days will be shortened. (Matt. 24:15-22 NKJ)"
And so they will be reaped when Christ returns in the middle of the Tribulation after they have been killed by the antichrist.24 "But in those days, after that tribulation, the sun will be darkened, and the moon will not give its light;
25 "the stars of heaven will fall, and the powers in the heavens will be shaken.
26 "Then they will see the Son of Man coming in the clouds with great power and glory.
All that happens in the middle of the tribulation resulting from the war in heaven wherein Michael the Archangel defeats the Dragon and the stars that fall from heaven are the defeated army of the Dragon and thus the powers that are in heaven will be shaken and fall to Earth.27 "And then He will send His angels, and gather together His elect from the four winds, from the farthest part of earth to the farthest part of heaven. (Mk. 13:24-27 NKJ)
That will happen at the end of the Tribulation as it says so many times throughout the Bible that the Second Coming occurs after the Antichrist has ruled for 3 and a half years and in the end.The Revelations 19 verses you posted are the Millennial Reign.
And so is the following verses from Isaiah:
"21 It shall come to pass in that day That the LORD will punish on high the host of exalted ones, And on the earth the kings of the earth.
22 They will be gathered together, As prisoners are gathered in the pit, And will be shut up in the prison; After many days they will be punished. (Isa. 24:21-22 NKJ)"
The host of the exalted ones are the most powerful elite of the aristocracies of the empire that is exalted in the world.

And to the point, these prophets all describe one chain of events. The dead in Christ rise first in the middle of the Tribulation, and Christ returns after the Tribulation and destroys the world and saves the rest of the people on Earth who follow the Lord.This text puts the Rapture after the Beast tries to exterminate the church, which technically then is pre-wrath bowls, but close to Mid-trib if the tribulation spans only 75 days:
11 "And the smoke of their torment ascends forever and ever; and they have no rest day or night, who worship the beast and his image, and whoever receives the mark of his name."
12 Here is the patience of the saints; here are those who keep the commandments of God and the faith of Jesus.
13 Then I heard a voice from heaven saying to me, "Write:`Blessed are the dead who die in the Lord from now on.'" "Yes," says the Spirit, "that they may rest from their labors, and their works follow them."
14 Then I looked, and behold, a white cloud, and on the cloud sat One like the Son of Man, having on His head a golden crown, and in His hand a sharp sickle.
15 And another angel came out of the temple, crying with a loud voice to Him who sat on the cloud, "Thrust in Your sickle and reap, for the time has come for You to reap, for the harvest of the earth is ripe."
16 So He who sat on the cloud thrust in His sickle on the earth, and the earth was reaped. (Rev. 14:11-16 NKJ)
11 "And from the time that the daily sacrifice is taken away, and the abomination of desolation is set up, there shall be one thousand two hundred and ninety days.
12 "Blessed is he who waits, and comes to the one thousand three hundred and thirty-five days.
(Dan. 12:11-12 NKJ)
At 1,260 days the False Christ morphs into the Beast and discards any pretense of Christianity (Dan. 9:27; Rev 13:5).

And, Isaiah 11 says
"11 And there shall come forth a rod out of the stem of Jesse, and a Branch shall grow out of his roots:
2 And the spirit of the Lord shall rest upon him, the spirit of wisdom and understanding, the spirit of counsel and might, the spirit of knowledge and of the fear of the Lord;
3 And shall make him of quick understanding in the fear of the Lord: and he shall not judge after the sight of his eyes, neither reprove after the hearing of his ears:
4 But with righteousness shall he judge the poor, and reprove with equity for the meek of the earth: and he shall smite the earth: with the rod of his mouth, and with the breath of his lips shall he slay the wicked."
And it continues to describe the Tribulation, therefore at that time there will be a man who is not the Christ himself who stands up for the Lord's people.Revelations 9 tells that a star will fall from heaven and open the bottomless pit. Revelations 12 tells that the Dragon will fall after his defeat by Michael the Archangel. It's there for you to see. An angel who falls from heaven will open the bottomless pit during the Tribulation.
The woman is clearly not the body of Christ. Revelations 12 clearly says that the woman will give birth to a Man Child so when she goes into the wilderness for 3 and a half years to escape the Dragon who fell to Earth after her Man child was called up to heaven and defeated him, then the Dragon will seek revenge on the woman and the remainder of her seed, for 3 and a half years, that is the second half of the Great Tribulation. So yet again, this birth is real and it occurs during the Tribulation as does the war in Heaven.

Are there any saints here?

The 3rd of the stars are the angels who follow the Dragon.
Are you claiming to be the archangel Michael in human form?

When did this happen ?
That's not scriptural. All the billions who survive Armageddon, than enter His millennial kingdom, are judged during that kingdom. So Billions alive at Christ's coming might be saved, if they repent during the Millennial kingdom.
And the church will be kings and priests during Christ's reign, to assist in their salvation.

There is clear prophecy of the dead in Christ rising first, then the rest who are alive rising second. That is clearly in two separate comings of Christ. And based on the timeline of Revelations when the saints are sealed and preach for the first half of the Tribulation and are killed by the Antichrist who then rules for the second have of the Tribulation, that first coming will happen in the middle of the Tribulation when the two witnesses who are the saints are killed and are caught up to heaven, and of course the Second Coming is said numerous times to happen after the Tribulation. Then the people of the Lord who are alive and remain will be gathered by the angels and caught up before the Earth is destroyed with fire. That's what the words indicate.

I would have to guess, but it could be anywhere from 500 BC to 200 AD.
Also I must make a correction, the angels did not follow the Dragon, rather they were defeated by the Dragon.

It could be anyone, even you. But why not me? And so I portray him on this site.
Incorrect. The Grecian revived Roman Empire New World Order rises at the start of the 7 year end time week, and the False Christ (Man of Sin 2 Th. 2:3-4) becomes its "Chancellor", notice it has a lion's mouth. At mid-week (Dan. 9:27) the Man of Sin morphs into the Beast Son of Destruction Seed of Satan (Gen. 3:15) and seeks to destroy Christianity entirely, targeting Christians who have resisted and exposed him as the False Christ since he appeared.
Notice the change, Empire is now ruled by "the little horn" of Daniel (Dan. 7:7-8; 8:9-12) and he speaks blasphemies with his pompous mouth. Notice this goes on for the final 42 months of the End Time Week during which he persecutes the church trying to kill all Christians:
1 Then I stood on the sand of the sea. And I saw a beast rising up out of the sea, having seven heads and ten horns, and on his horns ten crowns, and on his heads a blasphemous name.
2 Now the beast which I saw was like a leopard, his feet were like the feet of a bear, and his mouth like the mouth of a lion. The dragon gave him his power, his throne, and great authority.
3 And I saw one of his heads as if it had been mortally wounded, and his deadly wound was healed. And all the world marveled and followed the beast.
4 So they worshiped the dragon who gave authority to the beast; and they worshiped the beast, saying, "Who is like the beast? Who is able to make war with him?"
5 And he was given a mouth speaking great things and blasphemies, and he was given authority to continue for forty-two months.
6 Then he opened his mouth in blasphemy against God, to blaspheme His name, His tabernacle, and those who dwell in heaven.
7 It was granted to him to make war with the saints and to overcome them. And authority was given him over every tribe, tongue, and nation. (Rev. 13:1-7 NKJ)
At first the great Harlot of world religion since the Tower of Babel, Babylon the Great is befriended by Chancellor Adonikam Man of Sin False Prophet (Rev. 17:1-7). But at mid-week when he morphs into the Beast Seed of Satan, he outlaws all religion except that to him as god (Dan. 9:27; 2 Th. 2:4) and his power base of "ten horns" destroy all other Religion, Babylon the Great (Rev. 17:16-17).
Up until then the true church had political protection from those who hated genuine Christians, but once the Harlot is destroyed, all their political protection is gone and Adonikam the Son of Destruction seeks to end all those Christians still loyal to Christ:
7 Then I heard the man clothed in linen, who was above the waters of the river, when he held up his right hand and his left hand to heaven, and swore by Him who lives forever, that it shall be for a time, times, and half a time; and when the power of the holy people has been completely shattered, all these things shall be finished.
8 Although I heard, I did not understand. Then I said, "My lord, what shall be the end of these things?"
9 And he said, "Go your way, Daniel, for the words are closed up and sealed till the time of the end.
10 "Many shall be purified, made white, and refined, 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 is taken away, and the abomination of desolation is set up, there shall be one thousand two hundred and ninety days.
12 "Blessed is he who waits, and comes to the one thousand three hundred and thirty-five days.
(Dan. 12:7-12 NKJ)
That is the timeline. From the Time the False Christ was accepted by apostate Christendom, and that removed the daily sacrifice to the real Christ, to the Beast is 1,260. It takes him 30 more days to set up the 666 Image Mark Membership only global economy to manage earths scarce resources the wars plagues and earthquakes have depleted (Rev. 6:1-7), or 1,290 days. That's when the Great Tribulation of the Church and Israel is the most severe when the 5th seal is opened (Rev. 6:9-11). So for an additional 45 days Christians are slaughtered but at 1,325 days all who endured to this end will be saved, raptured.
Here is a summary of these events from mid-week to the rapture, from the destruction of Babylon, the Mark of the Beast, then the Rapture:
8 And another angel followed, saying, "Babylon is fallen, is fallen, that great city, because she has made all nations drink of the wine of the wrath of her fornication."
9 Then a third angel followed them, saying with a loud voice, "If anyone worships the beast and his image, and receives his mark on his forehead or on his hand,
10 "he himself shall also drink of the wine of the wrath of God, which is poured out full strength into the cup of His indignation. He shall be tormented with fire and brimstone in the presence of the holy angels and in the presence of the Lamb.
11 "And the smoke of their torment ascends forever and ever; and they have no rest day or night, who worship the beast and his image, and whoever receives the mark of his name."
12 Here is the patience of the saints; here are those who keep the commandments of God and the faith of Jesus.
13 Then I heard a voice from heaven saying to me, "Write:`Blessed are the dead who die in the Lord from now on.'" "Yes," says the Spirit, "that they may rest from their labors, and their works follow them."
14 Then I looked, and behold, a white cloud, and on the cloud sat One like the Son of Man, having on His head a golden crown, and in His hand a sharp sickle.
15 And another angel came out of the temple, crying with a loud voice to Him who sat on the cloud, "Thrust in Your sickle and reap, for the time has come for You to reap, for the harvest of the earth is ripe."
16 So He who sat on the cloud thrust in His sickle on the earth, and the earth was reaped. (Rev. 14:8-16 NKJ)
If you really were Michael the Archangel you would know these prophecies plainly revealed in the Scripture of Truth, he is a student of the Holy Scripture:
"But I will tell you what is noted in the Scripture of Truth. (No one upholds me against these, except Michael your prince.) (Dan. 10:21 NKJ)
