I tell you what.You would like to teach someone something .I have a question for you so you can teach everyone.
According to scripture,the two witnesses ascend into heaven in a cloud.During the same hours there is a great earthquake.

What kind of cloud ascends into heaven and is accompanied with an earthquake?

I will give you a hint to help you answer the question. The cloud is full of fire and brimstone.
No, the cloud will be similar to what took place in Acts 1:9 when Jesus left this earth and ascended to heaven. Likely a white cumulus cloud

There are ,30 days in a month in the Hebrew calendar.If you multiply 30 times 42 as in 42 months,it comes to 1260 days.

1260 days is exactly 42 months to the day.
I understand the conversion rationale. But in context of the events involved those conversions are non applicable - otherwise - everything would be expressed as 1260 days.

If you struggle to answer that question.
Here is another.

Scripture says,The beast which ascends out of the bottomless pit and the ten horns hate the prostitute Babylon.That great city that reigns over the kings.And they shall burn her with fire .

Here is the question.

If the beast and the ten horns hate the prostitute(that great city),then why do they kill the two witnesses in the great city?

What are the two witnesses doing with the prostitute?
The woman turned prostitute is the church at Rome, that later evolved into the Vatican. The ten kings will be ten EU leaders, who in the days of the beast king's rule, will burn the Vatican to the ground.

The two witnesses will be in Jerusalem, not Rome, and will not be in league with the Vatican.

The beast that ascends out of the abyss which hates the prostitute ,attacks and kills the two witnesses.

If the city of Rome has been reigning over the ten horns as you claim,then how is it that the two witnesses are the ones who have power over the ten horns for those 1260 days and not Rome?


The beast which attacks the great city that reigns over the kings, is the same beast which attacks and kills the two witnesses that have had power over them.

Not really.
I've seen some people try to say the1260 days are years even when the scripture says it is 42 months.

To make no mistake,the scripture gives the exact amount of days as it does months and they are the same.

You believe it is a white cumulus cloud that is accompanied by an earthquake.

How many cumulus clouds have you witnessed were accompanied with an earthquake?

If the answer is none,then you are obviously wrong.

Try again.

The cloud is in the sky above the earth. There is no connection.

Go look up weather clouds on google and learn what forms them and what they are made of.

Then go look up earthquake. Clouds do not cause earthquakes.

Seventh Day Adventist are the ones who believe the 1260 days is 1260 years. They base their belief on...

Ezekiel 4
4 Lie thou also upon thy left side, and lay the iniquity of the house of Israel upon it: according to the number of the days that thou shalt lie upon it thou shalt bear their iniquity.

5 For I have laid upon thee the years of their iniquity, according to the number of the days, three hundred and ninety days: so shalt thou bear the iniquity of the house of Israel.

6 And when thou hast accomplished them, lie again on thy right side, and thou shalt bear the iniquity of the house of Judah forty days: I have appointed thee each day for a year.

..... SDA take that unique application and apply it universally to support their belief that the pope/papacy is the Antichrist .

Yes,there is a connection.The great earthquake is connected to the cloud that departs from the earth.

Revelation 6
12 And I beheld when he had opened the sixth seal, and, lo, there was a great earthquake; and the sun became black as sackcloth of hair, and the moon became as blood;

13 And the stars of heaven fell unto the earth, even as a fig tree casteth her untimely figs, when she is shaken of a mighty wind.

14 And the heaven departed as a scroll when it is rolled together; and every mountain and island were moved out of their places.


I will give you yet another hint but you should already have this memorized.The earthquakes and the great signs in the heavens such as the cloud ascending into heaven takes place when kingdom comes against kingdom.Do you not know what kind of cloud departs from.earth as a scroll rolled together and is accompanied by a great earthquake?

Luke 21
10 Then said he unto them, Nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom:

11 And great earthquakes shall be in divers places, and famines, and pestilences; and fearful sights and great signs shall there be from heaven.



The great earthquake and cloud ascending into heaven from Jerusalem is caused after kingdom comes against kingdom.

What kind of cloud scends into heaven and is connected to an earthquake?
It's not a hard question.Its very simple.

Well,they are wrong.Revelation makes it very clear,the 1260 days is 42 months.


Revelation 11
. 2 But exclude the outer court; do not measure it, because it has been given to the Gentiles. They will trample on the holy city for 42 months. 3 And I will appoint my two witnesses, and they will prophesy for 1,260 days, clothed in sackcloth.”


These gentiles and the two superiors will occupy Israel for 42 months.

I don't care what you claim a year is,your not going to change the amount of time it takes for the earth to complete a rotation.That is a day.

Then you can stay with your fairy tales and forget trying to understand God's Word, because Christ is Who put that comparison there in Rev.11 between a SOLAR year reckoning (1260 days), vs. a Lunar year reckoning (42 months).

And a SOLAR YEAR is... just a little longer than a Lunar year, whether you want to believe that or not.

Been nice NOT conversing with you. Welcome to my IGNORE LIST.

Good grief
There are 1260 days in 42 months in the Hebrew calendar.

They are the same amount of time.
Good bye and good riddance.
