The Bible says The Great Tribulation is 3.5 Years. 8 TIMES
Daniel 7:25 He will speak against the Most High and oppress his holy people and try to change the set times and the laws. The holy people will be delivered into his hands for a time, times and half a time.
Revelation 11:2 But the court which is without the temple leave out, and measure it not; for it is given unto the Gentiles: and the holy city shall they tread under foot forty and two months.
Revelation 12:14 The woman was given the two wings of a great eagle, so that she might fly to the place prepared for her in the wilderness, where she would be taken care of for a time, times and half a time, out of the serpent’s reach.
Daniel 12:7 The man clothed in linen, who was above the waters of the river, lifted his right hand and his left hand toward heaven, and I heard him swear by him who lives forever, saying, “It will be for a time, times and half a time. When the power of the holy people has been finally broken, all these things will be completed.”
Revelation 11:3 And I will appoint my two witnesses, and they will prophesy for 1,260 days, clothed in sackcloth.
Revelation 12:6 The woman fled into the wilderness to a place prepared for her by God, where she might be taken care of for 1,260 days.
Daniel 12:11 “From the time that the daily sacrifice is abolished and the abomination that causes desolation is set up, there will be 1,290 days.
Revelation 13:5 And there was given unto him a mouth speaking great things and blasphemies; and power was given unto him to continue forty and two months.

The great tribulation of the saints by the Beast will be cut short by the coming of the Son of Man! (Mat. 24:21-31)
Nowhere does it say the GT will last 3 1/2 years. The Beast will have control over the nations for the 2nd half of the seven years. But that’s not the Great Tribulation of the saints! (Rev. 13:1-7)

“I have made you a watchman for the house of Israel; therefore you shall hear a word from My mouth and warn them for Me.” Ezekiel 33:7
Paul, I believe the Holy Spirit is leading me to become a Watchman to the body of Christ. Before I begin this ministry, what foundational truths should I understand?
A capable watchman should be able to scripturally define the Beginning of Sorrows, the Great Tribulation, the Day of the Lord and the 1,000-year reign of Christ. Understanding the events that take place during these four time periods is critical.
The Beginning of Sorrows will begin after the first seal is opened. It will end after the famines, pestilences, and earthquakes from the third seal cease in the middle of the seven-year week.
The Great Tribulation of the saints will begin after the fourth seal is opened. Satan’s wrath will end after the sixth seal.
The Day of the Lord will begin with fire after the seventh seal is opened. The wrath of the Lamb will end after the seventh bowl.
Their 1,000-year reign will begin when the Lamb and His bride descend to a new earth. Their rule over the nations will end with the release of Satan and the destruction of the human race.

09/27/2017 I believe was this occurrence in the sky. 1,260 days is approximately 3.5 yrs.
That will make it March 27, 2021 that the “devil” truly arrives on earth in human form (presumably). Take note at how fast our world is spinning out of control. The day is close, stars often represent false gods to those who worship satan, maybe “angels” of Lucifer. Possibly, the stars mentioned are really demons sent to earth with Lucifer to help him take over earth? America is at a crossing point, a point where defending Christianity is paramount. It is up to US to protect the vulnerable Woman, until the time has come.

Revelation 12 New International Version (NIV)
The Woman and the Dragon
12 A great sign appeared in heaven: a woman clothed with the sun, with the moon under her feet and a crown of twelve stars on her head. 2 She was pregnant and cried out in pain as she was about to give birth. 3 Then another sign appeared in heaven: an enormous red dragon with seven heads and ten horns and seven crowns on its heads. 4 Its tail swept a third of the stars out of the sky and flung them to the earth. The dragon stood in front of the woman who was about to give birth, so that it might devour her child the moment he was born. 5 She gave birth to a son, a male child, who “will rule all the nations with an iron scepter.”[a] And her child was snatched up to God and to his throne. 6 The woman fled into the wilderness to a place prepared for her by God, where she might be taken care of for 1,260 days.
7 Then war broke out in heaven. Michael and his angels fought against the dragon, and the dragon and his angels fought back. 8 But he was not strong enough, and they lost their place in heaven. 9 The great dragon was hurled down—that ancient serpent called the devil, or Satan, who leads the whole world astray. He was hurled to the earth, and his angels with him.
