While researching the lost books of the Bible, my attention was drawn to the Ascension of Isaiah. Research shows that it became known around 100 to 200 BC and was originally dictated in the presence of King Hezekiah by Isaiah in about 680 BC. Isaiah directed that it never be made public, but was to be passed down through the prophets until the time of the end.
Scriptures in the Ascension of Isaiah confirm everything we already know to be truth from the old and new testaments of the bible concerning the life of Jesus Christ and the Last Days. But The Ascension of Isaiah Chapter 4:12-14 gives us additional information that we didn’t have!
My original chart (copyright 1992) covered events according to scripture up to and including the rapture of the church. I did not go into detail concerning the second half of the 70th week of Daniel, which deals with the true Bride of Christ because I felt there was something missing. That something is found in the Ascension of Isaiah chapter 4:14. That something is that there are 1,332 days after the rapture of the church and then the Lord will return for His bride. That missing piece is what I needed to fully address the Bride of Christ on the Last Days chart. What you see before you is the revised edition (rev. 7/2017).
The first half of Daniel’s 70th week is the first 1,260 days into the 7 year peace treaty. Then Daniel’s 70th week stops at that point and picks back up 147 days later (75 & 72) just as there was a division between the 69th and 70th week in Daniel 9:26-27. This is the explanation of why the bible states clearly that there are two 1,260 day periods.
The first 1,260 day period is Revelation 11:3, the two witnesses. After the first 1,260 days, the church enters the great tribulation period that Jesus spoke of in Matthew 24:14-31. This is jump-started by Michael kicking Satan and his angels out of the second heaven at 1,260 days (Rev. 12:12-13, Daniel 12:1). Satan then incarnates the antichrist. This brings us up to 75 days from the rapture event (Daniel 12:12-13, Ascension of Isaiah 4:12-13). The rapture is 1,335 days from the signing of the peace treaty.
After the rapture, the true bride of Christ (Rev. 7, Rev. 12:5-9, Rev. 14:1-5, Rev. 21:9-12) is taken to a place of safety prepared by God. This transition takes 72 days to accomplish. Then we enter into the second half of Daniel’s 70th week (Rev. 12:5-7) – the second 1,260 days, which brings a total of 1,332 days (72 + 1,260 = 1,332) after the rapture as mentioned in the Ascension of Isaiah 4:14. This brings us to the end of the 70th week (Daniel 9:24-27) and Jesus returns for His Bride and sets up His kingdom.
