As I stated, Jesus Christ, Himself, gave the description concerning the "days of vengeance", His words themselves being the reconciliation as He also foretold His coming in glory and power at their conclusion.
Even if one thinks of the "days of vengeance" as never ending as one can see in the Judgment parable of the sheep and goats, we are assured that justice will prevail, even against internet crime.
The basis of this accurate countdown is manifold, inclusive to the Second Coming of Jesus Christ which the Holy Bible indicates to occur in the coming of the Sign of the Son of Man in Heaven. (Matthew 24:30)
Besides being born into this said Sign, I have also been born into a kingship foretold with multiple references within the Book of Daniel.
I have come to know the kings foretold in Daniel 11 as eternal friends.
Besides my experiences with them, other more recent prophecy has served well to expound upon the dimension where the older prophecy comes to fulfillment.
Such is the basis for the countdown to what I call Paradise Restored, the Day of the Lord according to Malachi 4:5, Ascension Sunday, May 8, 2016 A.D., the 1,335th day of Daniel 12:12, which contains a blessing in the words : "Blessed is he who waits and comes unto 1,335 days."
The interpretation of these precious prophecies do not fail in amazement on many counts as Daniel was told to seal-up the words, foregoing fulfillment and interpretation to a later time, this fact alone making this the longest running prayer meeting of all time.
The sealing-up recorded in Daniel 12:4 and 12:9 includes the interpretation to come "at the time of the end"; and that is the reason for so many failed interpretations prior to September 12, 2012 A.D., day one in the counting of the 1,290 and 1,335 days periods of Daniel 12:11 & 12, respectively.
It wasn't until I sat "at table" with the king of the south foretold in Daniel 11:40 on November 8, 2012 A.D. that I did realize that such a foretold event was occurring.
Up to that day, my life had been filled with pieces of fulfillment of the verses prior to Daniel 11:40, but Daniel 11:40 specifically states "at the time of the end".
Then things started to click, as the saying goes.
When the count was well past 800, more than two years later, I finally ascertained that the foretold, historic meeting on November 8, 2012 A.D. was day 58 into the countdown.
I've said it before, and I'll say it again, that at least for me, Daniel did a fine job in sealing-up the words as instructed to do in Daniel 12:4.
The date of September 12, 2012 A.D. which begins a 3 year / 7 month lunar count, is directly preceded by a 3 year / 7 month Roman calendar count which serves as a key to open that which was sealed.
That Roman calendar count began February 12, 2009 A.D. when one of my brothers, the 2nd king of Persia in the group of three foretold in Daniel 11:2, became incoherent due to, basically, the ravages of war, inclusive to an automobile collision on February 9, 2009 A.D., just three days prior.
The day of February 12, 2009 A.D. marked the beginning of the "realm left to two" quatrain prophecy (Century IV:95) of Michel de Nostradame which contains the foretold Roman calendar 3 years and 7 months.

1 Thessalonians 4 : 12-17 :
"12 And we will not have you ignorant, brethren, concerning them that are asleep, that you be not sorrowful, even as others who have no hope.13 For if we believe that Jesus died, and rose again; even so them who have slept through Jesus, will God bring with him.14 For this we say unto you in the word of the Lord, that we who are alive, who remain unto the coming of the Lord, shall not prevent them who have slept.15 For the Lord himself shall come down from heaven with commandment, and with the voice of an archangel, and with the trumpet of God: and the dead who are in Christ, shall rise first.16 Then we who are alive, who are left, shall be taken up together with them in the clouds to meet Christ, into the air, and so shall we be always with the Lord.17 Wherefore, comfort ye one another with these words."The underlined has also been translated "survivors".Having Blessed Matches and Blessed Candles will allow one to have some indoor light during the Three Days of Darkness, the final window being May 5-7, 2016 A.D.Staying indoors is recommended.Most prophecy concerning the Three Days of Darkness concur, there are several videos at youtube, such as Padre Pio's account of the Three Days of Darkness.As for Paul Godfrey's video, he covers the greater gamut of time to which the Book of Daniel addresses with excellent choice of readings and use of graphics.The specifics of the 2,300, 1,290, and 1,335 day periods I cover in detail because it has become a vocation for me.The last days of the 2,300 and 1,335 day periods are the same : the Day of the Lord (Malachi 4:5), Ascension Sunday, May 8, 2016 A.D.I have met other souls (people who once lived but then died) who have / are resurrected : Judas Iscariot, Pontius Pilate, and Adam, the first man, to cite three.The Judgment is to be embraced as the greatest healing to come upon humankind.*** - Quote :

But if whatever you expect to happen, doesn't happen that way, I wonder what you will do with yourself when the date is done and past. Have you thought about that?
I ask, because there was widespread belief in 2012 being an end of an age and beginning of a new age, - and 2012 was a great year of change for me, but so was 2006, and 2003 and 1996 and 1986... so I am inclined to believe that 2012 was not as major as those that spent years telling people about it believed.
So whilst you seem fixed on a date, it is unclear what this period will bring in real terms. It may be a good time to meditate. The moon is new in this period, I'm not sure if that is relevant to the 3 days of darkness. But new is good.
In terms of some of what Christ taught concerning expectations :
Mark 11 : "
24 Therefore I say unto you, all things, whatsoever you ask when ye pray, believe that you shall receive; and they shall come unto you." (also translated, "expect to receive")Mark 13 : "
23 Take you heed therefore; behold I have foretold you all things."Matthew 24 : "
44 Wherefore be you also ready, because at what hour you know not the Son of man will come."andI Corinthians 2 : "9 But, as it is written: That eye hath not seen, nor ear heard, neither hath it entered into the heart of man, what things God hath prepared for them that love him."I was once placed at the end of the Old Covenant to bear witness to the Light of the New and Everlasting Covenant, now I have been placed at the window of the world to come, it is all new to me, yet something old.The corroborating evidence of the accuracy of the count, as strong as it is, will still not affect the outcome.The coming of the Day of the Lord (Malachi 4:5) is like a steamroller, like all the prophecies concerning God's Almighty stature, there is no hastening nor slowing it.And as Martha Stewart says, "It's a good thing."*** - Quote :
- ameliorate wrote:I find it hard to reconcile that such a vengeful act (implying death) befalls those who don't believe that Christ died and had risen.
This has more to do with the Old Testament (God of wrath) than the New Testament (God of love) where Jesus is introduced. The
God of wrath is oppressive and rules by fear. In a modern age it is VERY outdated.
What about those who don't know i.e. can't make up their minds about whether or not it is true about Christ dying and rising again?
Will they be spared? Perhaps maimed as a compromise?
Are you familiar with the record of failed biblical doomsday prophecies?
The God of the Old Covenant is the same as the One of the New.
In Daniel 12:2 we are shown the same Justice concerning which Christ explains in the parable of the sheep and the goats.
It is Divine Justice without human error.
Christ used the term "Days of Vengeance" rightly as He was referencing all of Holy Scriptures Divinely Inspired Prophecies and such Scripture has it :
"
It is mine to avenge; I will repay." (Deuteronomy 32:35; Romans 12:19)God is Eternal Light penetrating the darkness.Not only did He purchase us at a price : 1 Corinthians 6:20 - "For you have been bought with a price.";but in the glory and power of His return He promises to reward to every man his due as He taught in the parables.I have seen the list, and as I've just explained, God's prophecies do not fail, nor does His Eternal Kingdom.*** - Blueanchor wrote:

- Sounds great, if it happens
I asked what will you do if it isn't as you expect?
Firstly, it already is happening.
I bear witness that I have been bodily resurrected in one way, shape, or form for more than 60 years, and originally, at the point of the intellect, I was unaware that I was resurrecting.
That resurrection began on the first Resurrection Sunday when Christ wilfully took up His life again.
Had Christ not done that, mankind would surely have perished on its own in what would have been rightly called 'hell on earth'.
And for those who reject Him, that is their lot.
Since the day that Christ entered the world, however, the world has been undergoing transformation through the infusion of His Kingdom into it.
The darkness has seen a great Light.
Those dead can now hear His voice and come forth from their deaths.
My point of prayer with Christ included an act of obedience to His direct command.
When death overtook me through sin, I was separated from Christ until He blotted out sin.
At that point, I still had no way to life again until He took up
His life again.
Then the Way was forged.
In the miraculous plan of our Father, such undeserved blessings are called graces.
But in God's eyes, that is part of His Justice, overpouring with Love and Mercy.
It has been far above and beyond my expectations.

That is an assumption that it is an obsession, and the same could be stated about the number of times people celebrate the coming of events such as New Year's Day, yet the Day of the Lord (Malachi 4:5) is an exponentially far greater event, the prophecies given at Medugorje by the Blessed Virgin Mary are such that the Day of the Lord is called the Great Event.

Mercy would be to spare them.
The gift of eternal life freely given to us through Christ does not include any prophecy to kill for Christ has come to fulfill the law and the prophets, the law clearly stating, "Thou shalt not kill."
Christ, by His Death, has conquered death.

So much for mercy!
In Daniel 12:2 the general resurrection of the dead is foretold, and is happening now.
Some people live such horrible lives that death overcomes them early through their own choice.
It is allotted that every man die once. (Hebrews 9:27)

I was only able to begin working with the countdown at the computer after being released from some of the throes of the attack of November 8, 2012 A.D.
That release didn't come until October 7, 2014 A.D.
The count up to 1,335 as foretold in Daniel 12:12 was already past 700, but I hadn't ascertained that yet, I only understood that Daniel 11:40 had been fulfilled and that I had paperwork to prove it.
Some of my best conversations about this have occurred at various forums.
This provided something of a classroom to study the prophecy in more depth.
And thus far, everything about it is amazing.
Like the reason it wasn't known due to the instructions and words of Daniel 12:4 & 12:9.
That also explains why all the other attempts failed.
But Daniel 11:40 specifically contains the same words as 12:9, "the time of the end".
It was at this point I also realized that chapters 11 and 12 of Daniel have been the basis of every mystery novel, play, and/or movie ever conceived.
I'm not saying that there aren't possibly others who have had some foreknowledge of the interpretation, but I am saying that the interpretation had been reserved for the "time of the end" because the words were sealed expressly for that purpose.
In days, the largest number given in the Book of Daniel is found in 8:14, and the number of days is 2,300.
The number which contains a written blessing is that of Daniel 12:12, and that number of days is 1,335.
I have lined both end days of those two verses to be the same.
Even the prophecy in chapter 9 speaking of "until the end" must necessarily coincide with regard to Christ saying "must be fulfilled".
I've often looked for parallels such as ameliorate presented with April 10, 2016 A.D. (I played my first concert this year on that date.)
But I checked previously as to what day the counting of 2,300 days was and if it had any other connection.
The priest who efforted (attempted) to baptize me died on the same month and day (not year) as when the counting of 2,300 days began.
The reason I use efforted / attempted is that at the time I was conjoined to a diametrically opposed twin.
Such conjoining posed a problem to what otherwise would have been a routine baptism.
This only made some further sense to me as I recollected experiences.
Not only can the vision of the ram and the he-goat of chapter 8 in the Book of Daniel be seen to be fulfilled in this conjoining, but so can the resurrection of Judas Iscariot be seen, the man for whom Christ dipped the bread, who hung himself to a tree, then Christ hung him on me.
This is covered in depth at my website, and only this evening have I taken the time to include some early remembrances with him :
https://risen-from-the-dead.forumotion.com/t13-st-judas-iscariot-demeter-gregory-palamar-popovich#320We are now only 25 days from the fulfillment of the final day of both Daniel 8:14 and Daniel 12:12.
