I recently came across the ancient Book of 2 Baruk, which appears to give a timeline of the tribulation period. Therefore, counting backwards from the Fall of 2029, I have created a timeline of a twelve (12) year tribulation period as described by 2 Baruk. I would also like to mention that this tribulation “timeline” of Baruk appears to track closely with the sequence of end-time events outlined by Jesus in the Book of Matthew Chapter 24, when Jesus talks about the events preceding His second coming, and it is also similar to events outlined in the Book of Revelation. The LORD tells Baruk that the time of tribulation is divided into twelve (12) parts. Baruk had asked God how many “years” that the tribulation would last and God tells him it is divided into twelve “parts”…Could the tribulation actually last twelve (12) years from the start to the finish?2Pe 3:8 But, beloved, be not ignorant of this one thing, that one day is with the Lord as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day. There is an ancient Epistle of Barnabas that was written at about the same time as the Books of the New Testament. The writer of Barnabas lays out God’s broad framework for the original fall of Adam and Eve, and the final redemption of mankind.Barnabas 15:4Give heed, children, what this meaneth; He ended in six days. Hemeaneth this, that in six thousand years the Lord shall bring allthings to an end; for the day with Him signifyeth a thousand years;and this He himself beareth me witness, saying; Behold, the day ofthe Lord shall be as a thousand years. Therefore, children, in sixdays, that is in six thousand years, everything shall come to an end.Therefore, it is not too difficult to count from the fall of Adam and Eve to the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ…four-thousand (4000) years, and then count from the resurrection of Jesus Christ at 30 A.D. …another two-thousand (2000) years, thus we come to the obvious conclusion that Jesus will return on or around 2030 A.D.All I ask is that you read this book with an open mind. I am now thoroughly convinced by world events, and by much Bible study, that Jesus is coming back very, very soon.Isa 1:18 Come now, and let us reason together, saith the LORD:This book that you are about to read is the end result of many years of Bible study. All I ask is that you read this book with an open mind. I am now thoroughly convinced by world events, and by much Bible study, that Jesus is coming back very, very soon.
