John and Doves:The Day of the Lord vs. The Day of God's Wrath has been a point of some ignorance with me. I hope I have gained a little better understanding.The Day of the Lord is the Lord's Day, the Sabbath, i.e. Saturday. In the one day is as one thousand years scenario - Saturday - The Day of the Lord (Anti-type - Greater Sabbath) equals 1,000 prophetic years. The yet future Day of the Lord is 1000 years long.The Day of God's Wrath is a much shorter time and is 'inside' the 1000 years of the Day of The Lord. As such, they can both start at the same time and overlap until the end of God's Wrath when he remembers Mercy, as he surely will - as below.Hab 3:2 O LORD, I have heard thy speech, [and] was afraid: O LORD, revive thy work in the midst of the years, in the midst of the years make known; in wrath remember mercy.Isa 54:8 In a little wrath I hid my face from thee for a moment; but with everlasting kindness will I have mercy on thee, saith the LORD thy Redeemer.Isa 60:10 And the sons of strangers shall build up thy walls, and their kings shall minister unto thee: for in my wrath I smote thee, but in my favour have I had mercy on thee.Rev 19:5 And out of his mouth goeth a sharp sword, that with it he should smite the nations: and he shall rule them with a rod of iron: and he treadeth the winepress of the fierceness and wrath of Almighty God.It has been suggested, as I also believe, the Day of God's Wrath will begin on 9-13-2015, Eve of Feast of Trumpets (9-14/15-2015). The Day of the Lord can start the same day. Some may not need to, but I have to boil things down to their lowest components to understand them, i.e. The Day of Gods Wrath and The Day of the Lord BOTH begin on Sept 13-15 2015, Feast of Trumpets, to include the Eve heralding the events with a solar eclipse in Leo.While many study the blood moons, Fewer people consider the solar eclipses in the series. Solar eclipses are bad omens for the nations. As such, the solar eclipse at Leo's back feet can herald both: 1) the Day of God's Wrath (actually takes 7 years) against the Nations and 2) the Day of the Lord (1,000 years). The sun and moon (for signs) can represent the scepter and lawgiver of Gen 49:10. Venus (Jesus) beheads Hydra, the sea beast, during this same time-frame, in fulfillment of Gen 3:15 - seed (Jesus) of the woman bruises the head of the seed of the serpent (Anti-Christ). Jupiter, likewise, can represent the lawgiver and will be in Leo at this time. Considering that the moon (scepter) moves fast, it has left Leo by Sept 15, 2015. This is a narrow time-frame but an important one. It should be the beginning of God's Wrath at the Nations AND the beginning of The Day of the Lord.Let us back up from 9-13/15-2015 a little bit. The sea beast (A/C) is to be destroyed by the brightness of Jesus' coming. The A/C comes to power 1260 days earlier and is destroyed 9-13/15-2015 (FOT). That puts the A/C or sea beast coming to power 1260 days before 9-13-2015 - on or about April 1-3 2012. This 1260 days from Daniel CANNOT be shortened, otherwise it is no longer 1260 days, it is some other number.The two witnesses must complete their 1260 days of testimony before The day of The Lord begins, i.e. 9-13/15-2015. This means they should appear in the time-frame of April 1-3 2012. A really good question is "Why is God Angry?" or "What triggered his anger?". As of 9-13/15-2015 (FOT), God's two witnesses will have been killed and lay in the streets of Jerusalem. Wouldn't you be angry? This, as projected, is the beginning of The Day of God's Wrath beginning when the two witnesses are KILLED and the LORD is furious. This fury lasts only long enough to subdue the Nations (7 years?) and he remembers MERCY, even to the nations. It takes 7 months to bury the bones but 7 years to wrap it up. It took Israel at least 7 years to conquer the land. The Lord did not subdue the former inhabitants instantaneously.Mic 6:8 He hath shewed thee, O man, what [is] good; and what doth the LORD require of thee, but to do justly, and to love mercy, and to walk humbly with thy God?Doves, I leave you on 'a happy note'. April 1-3 2012 - 9-11 Nisan is only two weeks. 9-11 Nisan 2012 may be 'the greater 9-11'.<><
