This Revelation Timeline Decoded post reviews a video by Isaiah Saldivar called ‘The Anti-Christ and END times events explained!‘
Video Description: The Anti-Christ and END times events explained! Many people look at end-time events as complicated and irrelevant so they dismiss them altogether. We are going to continue our teaching on the end times discussing the antichrist, the purpose of the tribulation, Armageddon, and more!
Isaiah Saldivar says that he wants to be wide awake and not like a foolish virgin.
I love Isaiah’s zeal for proclaiming the Gospel, but what he is teaching is causing him and his followers to follow a false script that will leave them as foolish virgins during the end-times.
The historical fulfillment of the 70th week of Daniel 9 from 27-34 AD, Messiah’s Olivet Discourse which describes events leading to the Jewish-Roman War of 66-70 AD, and most of prophecies in Revelation during the last 1,900 years; validates the authority of Scripture and the deity of Messiah. Isaiah Saldivar’s futuristic explanations serve to hide those proofs.
The Protestant Reformers and great theologians of the 16th-19th centuries all taught the historical fulfillment of prophecy. It’s only during the few centuries that the futuristic deceptions have taken hold as the enemy has deceived even the very elect.
The concept of a future 70th week of Daniel 9, in which a one-man antichrist appears and most of Revelation is fulfilled, is a deception from the enemy. I know that sounds crazy since most people teach these concepts, but the enemy has worked hard to mislead the end-times saints so that even the very elect are deceived. I pray that you will seek truth, not to defend a belief.
Please understand that I declare these things not because I think that I know it all, and I’m not saying that everything that Isaiah Saldivar teaches is false. He seems to be very sincere in his beliefs and His love for Messiah. What I’m showing is that what he teaches about prophecy fulfillment is false, because it’s based on the futuristic model that was created by the enemy to deceive the end-times saints.
I don’t proclaim this for my sake, because this isn’t about me. You can dismiss what I’m saying and defend your beliefs, but now you’re accountable and I’ve fulfilled my role as the watchman blowing the trumpet.
Isaiah Saldivar points to the seven-year tribulation and believes in a pretribulation rapture.
His explanation of the futuristic fulfillment of Revelation are based on the concept of a futuristic 70th week of Daniel 9. The false concept of a 7-year tribulation period is based on the 70-weeks of Daniel 9 prophecy. The prophecy foretold when Messiah would appear to carry out His ministry, and when (in the middle of the 70th week) He would confirm the (everlasting) covenant (that was mentioned in Daniel 9:4) with His blood as the Passover Lamb, to atone for our sins. It’s not about the end times or the antichrist.
When you understand that the 70th week of Daniel 9 foretold the exact time that Messiah would carry out His ministry and die for our sins; then you know that it’s not about the end-times or the antichrist.
We’ll all stand before our Righteous Judge to account for what we believe and teach about the most important prophecy in the Bible. I pray that you will read the explanations in this book about the 70th week of Daniel, compare it to Scripture, and discern it for yourself.

Isaiah Saldivar says that the book of Revelation is all about Jesus Christ and that he wants to know him.
What he fails to understand is the glory of Messiah which is revealed when you see that most of the prophecies in Revelation have been fulfilled in exacting detail during the last 1,900 years. Revelation 1:1 says that these things would start to take place shortly, and they did as the seals are about the pagan Roman Empire which Satan used to try to wipe out Messiah’s Ekklesia of saints.
Satan has worked hard to hide the witness of the fulfillment of most of Revelation, for it proves to the world the validity of Scripture and the deity of Messiah.
Isaiah Saldivar says the signs of Luke 21 point to the end times.
He says that Messiah said that the sign of His return is that everyone will hear the Gospel. No, that is false. The sign that Messiah gave was the abomination of desolation.
Luke 21:20-21 tells us that it’s when an army surrounds the temple in Jerusalem, which took place in that generation just like Messiah foretold, when Cestius and his army surrounded the temple and were ready to take Jerusalem captive.
Then they left for no explained reason, which gave Messiah’s saints the opportunity to flee Judea to the mountains for safety. The unbelieving Jews stayed in Judea, and Jerusalem, the temple and the Jewish nation were desolated during the Jewish-Roman War of 66-70 AD.
The Olivet Discourse is directed related to the 70th Week of Daniel 9, which says that the city and temple will be desolated because of the abominations of the Jews, who continued in their rebellion against the Heavenly Father and rejected His Son and delivered Him up to be killed.
As for the Gospel being preached into all the world, the ‘world’ of prophecy is the known Roman Empire, and there are New Testament verses which proclaim that the Gospel was spread into all the world.

Isaiah Saldivar points to Daniel 12, that the saved will be protected in the end times.
The truth is that Daniel 12 is an answer to Daniel’s prayer about what would happen to his people, the Jews, after they’re released from captivity in Babylon. He understood from the 70 weeks of Daniel 9 prophecy that Messiah would appear and then be ‘cut off,’ killed, and that the result would be that Jerusalem and the temple would be desolated.
By that he understood that the Jewish leaders would be responsible for delivering Messiah up to be killed, so he was wanting more information. The 1,290 and 1,335 days were fulfilled during the Jewish-Roman War of 66-70 AD, when 1.1 million Jews died in and around Jerusalem from famine, pestilence, infighting, suicide, evisceration, crucifixion and by the Roman sword.
Those who believed in Messiah saw the sign of the abomination of desolation and fled to the mountains as Messiah told them, and they were saved from the calamity.
Isaiah Saldivar points to futuristic seals, trumpet and bowls.
Most of the prophecies in Revelation have already been fulfilled during the last 1,900 years, as the Satan-empowered leaders of the Roman beast kingdom have fought against Messiah and His saints. The pagan Roman Emperors tried to wipe out the early church, killing millions. The Roman Popes banned and burned the Scriptures and caused tens of millions of saints to be killed during the Dark Ages and the Inquisition. These are the things that Messiah is pointing to in His apocalyptic vision.
What Isaiah teaches is hiding the glorious truth of the fulfillment of Messiah’s apocalyptic vision, and causing people to be unprepared for His glorious return.
Isaiah Saldivar says that you don’t see any saints after Revelation 4, because they got raptured.
He notes that you don’t see people of the seven churches. That is false, as the letters to the seven churches are seven church eras which span from when Revelation was written until Messiah returns. So the saints are here during the whole fulfillment of Revelation.
As example is the church of Smyrna saints who endured harsh persecution especially hard for ten years, from 303-312 AD, when Diocletian tried to wipe out Messiah’s Ekklesia of saints. This is the ‘ten days‘ of tribulation that Messiah spoke about, as in prophecy one day can point to one year.
Their blood is symbolically crying out for vengeance in the fifth seal, and it came as the seal judgments caused the decline of the pagan Roman Empire and the trumpet judgments caused its fall.
Read Revelation Fulfillment Summary
Isaiah Saldivar says that during the tribulation, 144,000 Jewish evangelists will be raised up to preach the Gospel.
First of all, it’s pointing to people of the twelve tribes. The tribe of Judah and Benjamin form the House of Israel, and are called Jews. But the other tribes are not Jews, so Isaiah is confusing people with his naming.
More importantly, the 144,000 were sealed before barbarian armies were sent against the Roman Empire during the trumpet judgments.
Isaiah Saldivar says that the two witnesses of Revelation 11, maybe Elijah and Enoch, will preach during the tribulation.
The two witnesses are the Scriptures, which testify about Messiah; and the saints, who witness about the Gospel and expose deceivers. This is why the antichrist beast Popes of Rome banned and burned the Scriptures, and killed the saints, during the Dark Ages and Inquisition.
Isaiah’s whole narrative about an end-times one-man antichrist is wrong. The office of the papacy, the Popes of Rome, fulfill Bible prophecy as the ‘little horn’ of Daniel 7, the ‘son of perdition’ of 2 Thessalonians 2, and the ‘antichrist beast’ of Revelation 13, who leads the ‘harlot’ church of Rome.
Read Prophecy Points To The Leader Of The Roman Beast Study
Isaiah Saldivar says that the Holy Spirit is the restrainer who will be removed before the son of perdition appears.
That is wrong, as it was the Western Roman Emperor that had to be removed for the Bishop of Rome to take control of the Roman beast kingdom. This took place during the fourth trumpet, when the last Western Roman Emperor was removed from power in 476 AD. Then shortly afterward, in 538 AD, the Pope of Rome was given civil and ecclesiastic authority over the Western Roman Empire.
The Popes fulfill prophecy as the son of perdition, as they pretend to be a priest of Messiah, but they are a betrayer who teaches a false Gospel message of works through the sacraments, and that Mary is the intercessor to the Father. They have used Catholics to torture and kill tens of millions of saints. They are a betrayer like Judas.
All of Isaiah Saldivar’s explanations of Revelation are based on a futuristic 70th week of Daniel 9.
But the 70th week was fulfilled after the 69th week, and what took place in it is the pinnacle of human history, for in it Messiah carried out His ministry, He died for our sins and He rose again.
To assign the 70th week of Daniel to His enemy, the antichrist in the end times, is a deception from the enemy. I pray that you will seek truth, not to defend a belief.
We’ll all stand before our Righteous Judge to account for what we believe and teach about the most important prophecy in the Bible. I pray that you will read the explanations in this book about the 70th week of Daniel, compare it to Scripture, and discern it for yourself.
