Michael Bradley at (https://www.bible-knowledge.com/end-time-events-outline/) provides an excellent summary of end time events as follows without scripture documentation:

 First he “lists all of the events that will be occurring before the 7 year Tribulation starts, then all of the events that will be occurring during the Tribulation, and finally all of the events that will occur after the Tribulation.”

 Main Events That Will Occur Before the Tribulation


  1. Restoration of the State of Israel

The Jewish people return to the land of Israel and re-establish it as a state. This sign has already come to pass and it occurred on 5/14/48. The city of Jerusalem was then regained by the Jewish people on 6/7/67.


  1. Miscellaneous Signs such as apostasy, which in Greek is expressed as the word “apostasia” indicating not only a falling away from belief, but also a falling away from a state of being – such a male or female, etc.

 Jesus in Matt 24 tells us that some of the following signs will occur as we approach the end times.

  1. a)  Perilous times will come.
  2. b)  False Christ’s and false prophets will arise.
  3. c)  Wars and rumors of wars.
  4. d)  Nation against nation, kingdom against kingdom.
  5. e)  Famines, pestilences (NKJV) and earthquakes.

                   (Note: pestilences=pandemics) 



  1. f)  Lawlessness and immorality will abound.

 The City of Babylon will rise again – i.e. – meaning it be rebuilt, presumably by the Antichrist.

 Russia and her Allies at the time Will Invade Israel. God will then supernaturally destroy this invading army. (Most likely Eze. 38-39). (Note: Gog is not Russia. Gog is a “ruler” – context is necessary. However, Magog in ancient history was a city in Turkey. Also Sheba was considered the Northern UAE, and Dedan the Southern areas. End of the year 2020 treaties illuminate the written scriptures of Eze.38-39.

 Main Events That Will Occur During the 7 Year Tribulation

Satan apparently forms an Unholy Trinity of sorts and due to length constraints of this paper, further exploits of the Antichrist and the False Prophet cannot be displayed. The reader is asked to recall that once again this entire writing has been severely condensed.

 Going forward in time:

 The Antichrist Establishes a Peace Treaty and a Covenant with Israel.

 The Jewish Temple is Rebuilt and daily sacrifices commence.

 God’s Counterbalances with:

 The 2 Witnesses

The question has been asked, “why, two”? The most apparent answer is to comply with Jewish law. At least two witnesses were needed to establish the guilt or innocence of a Jew. (Deut. 17:6). When Jesus said in Matt 18:20 “For where two or three are gathered in my name, I am there among them.  is often taken completely out of context, with people believing there is more “spiritual power” in groups.

 Some commentators feel the two witnesses will be Enoch and Elijah since they have never died. However, others feel they will be Elijah and Moses. This reasoning includes the fact that Enoch was a Gentile.

 144,000 Jewish Witnesses 

 According to Jeremiah (2 ) these Jewish witnesses who now believe Yeshua Messiah came first as a Lamb, are utterly dedicated to Yeshua (Jesus) and display tremendous strength of character. The judgment of the “angels” empowered for their destructive purpose is temporarily put on hold, after the 144,000 are anointed and begin their tremendous success in telling the other Jews the Gospel of Yeshua bringing them into the Kingdom of God. However, it does not stop in Israel.  Rather the 144,000 go out into the entire world bringing all those written in God’s Book of Life, into the Kingdom forever.

 These 144,000 individuals are protected during the Tribulation and according to John 14:1, he sees them standing triumphantly on Mount Zion. Dr. Jeremiah (2) calls our attention to the fact “not 143,999, but the entire 144,000.”

 Major Outpouring of  Holy Spirit God.

 In his vision of heaven, John in Revelation sees a vast number of  tribulation saints who have been martyred by the Antichrist: (Re 7:9 After this I looked and there before me was a great multitude that no one could count, from every nation, tribe, people and language, standing before the throne and in front of the Lamb. They were wearing white robes and were holding palm branches in their hands. When John asks who they are, he is told, “These are they who have come out of the great tribulation;

 Next: The Angel of the Everlasting Gospel is allowed to preach over the entire earth.

  A War in Heaven Breaks Out”

 –Michael the Archangel and his angels cast Satan —(all the way out of the atmosphere of the lowest heaven and onto the actual earth. )–The Devil becomes furious when this event occurs because he knows that his time is short. It is felt the first battle involved Satan and his followers in “heaven” being cast down to the first heaven, i.e. the atmosphere of the earth.

      This writer feels that since God is a God of sevens and since Paul was taken to the third heaven, it is entirely possible there are three “heavens” with seven levels each. Other than actual scripture, further documentation is needed, including any references to the “unknown expanse” of heaven.

The Abomination of Desolation”

 Three and half years into the Tribulation, the Antichrist will break his peace treaty with Israel, seat himself up in their rebuilt temple and proclaim himself to be God. This begins the judgments:

 There are seven judgments each of 1. Seal, 2. Trumpet, and 3. Bowl.

 Starting with Revelation 5, the seal judgments commence. The seals are such that they can only be opened by Yeshua (Jesus), and are as follows- 1-7:


  1. A rider on a white horse (interpreted as the Antichrist), goes out to make war across the earth.
  2. People kill each other around the world and there is no peace.
  3. Famine occurs world wide due to above.
  4. Many people die due to famine and “wild beasts” who deliberate seek out humans to kill them.
  5. A vast increase in Martyrdom of Christian, Messianic, or Non Messianic Jews.
  6. Tremendous earthquakes.
  7. Introduction to the “Trumpet” judgments, with a “pause”.

 The Trumpet judgments:

 The seven angels who stand before God with the seven trumpets bring the following: (see note above regarding a temporary halt in action)



Angel 3-A meteor falls like a torch in bodies of waters making them bitter and kill men who drink from them. (humanity)




 After these trumpets, the great angel appears with a little book. He utters seven thunders, but God tells John not to write what they spoke. This angel declares there should be no more delay, that with the sounding of the seventh angel, the mystery of God will be finished that He declared to His prophets. He gave John the little book to eat that tasted sweet as honey, but in his stomach became bitter. He told him he must prophesy about many people.



 In Revelation Chapter 16  the bowl judgments are released:



Bowl 3 The rivers and springs become blood.

Bowl 4 The sun scorches men with fire.


Bowl 6 Poured on river Euphrates to prepare for Armageddon.


 Bowl 7: World-shattering earthquake and 100 or more-pound hail.

 The “Great Tribulation” begins in the middle of the seven-year time frame (Daniel 9:25-27).
All of these plagues will be released during it. They end at the battle of Armageddon; the most famous battle known to man, which will unite the world’s armies together in the war that ends all wars. All the nations of the world come against

 This prompts the second coming of Jesus Christ, who returns in judgment with His heavenly battalion. Immediately, after God causes the cataclysmic finale of the sun darkening, stars falling from the sky and the powers of the heavens shaken (Matt. 24:29). The sky will literally roll up as a scroll and marks the end of the age. (https://erikagrey.com/the-trumpet-and-bowl-judgments-of-revelation/).

 Some have said it is best to interpret scripture literally which is common sense. Seek no other sense or you might end up with nonsense. Nevertheless, there are a number of commentators who do not regard the tribulations as literal.
