Day of the Lord. We believe a popular consensus of this day as a period of years to be very distractive for Bible Prophecy. What is "Near" in God's timing realizes 1000 years is like a single Day. That Day's Wrath has been "Near" since Isaiah 13:6. On the Day Christ appears comes Death and Destruction. Or striking Deliverance. We see this Day as a single solar day at Christ's Presence. Or at a new heaven and earth after 1000 years.  I Pet. 1:7,13; 2 Pet.3:8-12. 

Day of Lord and Lastday are the same day. It is the Day of God's Wrath...the Day the sun refuses to shine. "All Believers, dead and living, rise up on the last day...each in his own order: Christ the Firstfruit of the dead; afterward, those who are Christ's at His Presence." The order begins as "144,000 living Firstfruit to God and the Lamb accompany the Lamb to heaven from earth's Mt. Zion." John 6:39,40,44,54; I Cor.15:20,23; Rev.14:1-4.

Two Prophets arise and ascend to heaven as prime Witnesses for the trial of the wicked in heaven's Court. This all happens before "the rest of the dead, together with those in Christ who survive, are caught up to meet Him." The dead and living arise so that all Saints appear with Christ, are rewarded and share in the effulgence of His glory. Rev.11:11,12; I Thess. 4:14-17; I Thess. 3:13; Zech.14:5; Col.3:4; Rev.17:14; Rev.11:18; Matt.16:27-28; Rev.22:12.

MEDITATIONS connect Mark 9:1 and Rev. 12:10 to the demonstration of God's Endtime Kingdom Power. Beginning with #37, three Lastday Concentric Paths trace its 100 verses under separate categories so as to follow the order of events taking place on that great Day of the Lord. The sequence of Lastday's 22 events, confined to these three paths, begins as the 7th Plague suspends in the air while Seal 6, Seal 7 and Trump 7 precipitate God's wrath! See Centerpiece.  

My Search shows Lastday events include a Three-Act Drama in heaven's open Temple. The 144,000, who "follow the Lamb wherever He goes," sing the Song of the Lamb to present Him before God after He rescues them from Mt. Zion. The Temple Drama that follows separates their ascent to heaven from the "rapture" of those who are alive and remain when He appears the same day.

The Drama also separates the opening of Seal Six (Sign of the Day of the Lord) from the unknown Hour Christ appears in glory. On this Lastday, Plague #7 empties in mid-air waiting for the Testimony of the great multitudes in Seal #7,  just as in the Tribunal of Daniel 7:9-27. Trump #7's Triumph sounds once as the Last Trump. Rev.11:15-19.  It sounds again as Christ descends in Rev.19:11 to gather the elect from earth upon the 4 winds. Mark 13:27.  It sounds a 3rd time as "the angels gather the elect from all extremities of the heavenS." Matt.24:31.

Mystery Babylon rules during the Pre-Endtime. She falls midway of Daniel's prophetic Week #70. Ten Kings destroy her, confiscate the global System and give their authority to the Beast 42 months. She rules a "short time as the 7th King" before the Beast rules as the "8th King." Under her rule the coming Beast will "confirm a covenant with many." 

Two Prophets gives a Dialogue of Elijah and John showing a retrospective look from Trump 6's Holocaust...at the very edge of the Lastday. The critical climax occurs as these Supermen finish their task, are killed, rise up and ascend to heaven. By that event, the Middle Concentric Path begins. For the last Holocaust has "passed by and Time is no longer" subject to a countdown. "God's mystery was finished." Rev.10:6-7; Rev.11:6-7. 

The Apostle reveals the legend about John never having tasted death. John was commissioned by two voices at once to prophesy again before many nations, kings, people and tongues. Rev.10:11. "Seven Thunders" were revealed to him but are sealed until he comes with Elijah to "restore all things and feed 144,000...the Firstfruit of the living unto God and the Lamb purchased by Him from earth." Mal.4:5-6; Matt.17:11; Rev.14:4. Read the Nine Reasons why the Church needs to understand the "hidden Mandate" for the Two Prophets to demonstrate God's Kingdom Power.

Messiah executes God's Wrath on the Lastday. The Sign ( Seal Six) launches that Day.  My Search. A Key Phrase concludes the Three-Act Temple Drama with "Voices, flashes of lightning, peals of thunder and history's greatest quake." Aftershocks destroy cities and mountains. #VIII of Ten Keys, The Text, puts Scripture with the Endtime Outline.
