This Revelation Timeline Decoded post reviews a video by Lion of Judah called The Bible Knows The Things To Come (These Prophecies Will Be Fulfilled).
The Lion of Judah YouTube channel has 2.61 million subscribers, which means that a lot of people are being misled by their false, futuristic explanations about the fulfillment of Revelation and the antichrist.
Lion of Judah says that the rapture could take place at any time.
The concept of a pre-trib rapture is based on a futuristic 70th week of Daniel, but that is a deception to fool the end times saints. The 70th week of Daniel 9 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.

Lion of Judah points to the wars, famine and earthquakes of the Olivet Discourse being about the end times
The context of Messiah’s Olivet Discourse is the desolation of the temple that He just came out of, in which He rebuked the Jewish leaders who were seeking to kill Him. He proclaimed that judgment would come upon them in that generation. We know that within a generation, the Jewish-Roman War of 66-70 AD caused Jerusalem, the temple and the Jewish nation to be desolated. 1.1 million Jews died in and around Jerusalem from famine, pestilence, infighting, suicide, evisceration, crucifixion and by the Roman sword.
All of the things that Messiah described from Matthew 23:36 to Matthew 24:33 were fulfilled by 70 AD. The enemy has deceived people about the symbolism of the sun, moon, and stars being darkened; Messiah coming in power and glory; and the elect being gathered. But the Bible gives the proper definitions for the symbols.
The term ‘this generation’ was used ten times in Matthew, the last time in Matthew 24:34. The previous nine times it points to the Jews who lived during Messiah’s first advent. When you take Messiah at His Word you see the fulfillment of His Olivet Discourse and how the things that He described took place in that generation of Jews, for their punishment of continuing their rebellion against the Father, for delivering Messiah up to be killed, and for persecuting His disciples. They proclaimed ‘let His blood be on us,’ and that prophetic statement was fulfilled in that generation, during the Jewish-Roman War of 66-70 AD, when Jerusalem, the temple and the Jewish nation were desolated.
Read The Olivet Discourse Deception
Lion of Judah says that says that we’re commanded to be knowledgeable about Messiah’s return
It’s ironic that they say that, because what they’re teaching cause people to not be knowledgeable about the context of Messiah’s return.
Lion of Judah teaches a futuristic fulfillment of the 70th week of Daniel 9, the Olivet Discourse and the prophecies in Revelation.
The 70th week of Daniel 9 is about Messiah’s ministry and His blood sacrifice as the Spotless Lamb to atone for our sins. It has nothing to do with the antichrist or the end times.
The Olivet Discourse foretold the events that would lead to the desolation of Jerusalem, the second temple and the Jewish nation; as punishment for the Jewish leaders continuing in rebellion against the Heavenly Father and for delivering His Son up to be killed. It has nothing to do with the antichrist or the end times.
Most of the prophecies in Revelation have been fulfilled in exacting detail during the last 1,900 years. It describes the historical narrative of the Satan-empowered leaders of the Roman beast kingdom (pagan Emperors > antichrist beast Popes > false prophet Jesuit Superior Generals) fighting against Messiah and His saints.
The explanations of Dr. John Barnett of Discover the Book Ministries serve to deflect blame away from the enemy in Rome, and to mislead the end-times saints so that they’re not prepared for how the end-times will play out, and don’t know the context of Messiah’s return.

Messiah tells us exactly what is going to happen before it happens. A majority of believers do not study the Holy Scriptures. What they hear is on Sunday mornings; whatever the pastor says is the truth. They hear, secret rapture, Christmas is Jesus’ birthday. Easter is the bunny Rabbit. It appears most Cemetery graduates put out applications for hopefully a large salary. This is not always the case, but I see it a lot. My opinion, baby believers. Many times the power of the Holy Spirit is not mentioned. Prayer language, healings, praise in worship, studying with cross references in the Torah and new Testament. Hopefully people will look at and read the information your have put together. Shalom.
Thank you for your comment Dan and for sharing your insight! I pray that there is a great awakening to the truth of prophecy fulfillment, to expose the deceptions of the enemy, for the glory of our Heavenly Father and beloved Messiah! Shalom!
