Here is something that will start to lock in this level of the 1260, and should make you see there is more to this than a couple of men standing in one spot with funny clothes on...:)
Have you ever seen a lunar eclipse? You probably have. Did you notice how in not so rare occasions, in will turn blood red, depending on the conditions of the earth?......
Have you ever seen a solar eclipse? I'm sure you have seen partials anyways. Did you notice how the sun turns as if it were black as sackcloth for a period of time?
Now in a single saros cycle you will have approximately 70 eclipses of both types, over an average of 1260 years. ( I will go over this later)
Now consider this:
Revelation 6:12 (King James Version)
[sup]12[/sup]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;
Remember, the seals are in a time of learning of a future event. In other words this is information a certain group of people should know before the action actually happens. Did you notice that besides the earthquake, what we are seeing is the sun and moon mentioned. Now here is the give away,.......these two types of eclipses can't happen at the same time. You either have one or the other, a solar or a lunar. Then what type of event are we seeing here? Oh, I know, the 1260!
Take a look at the two witnesses:
[sup]3[/sup]And I will give power unto my two witnesses, and they shall prophesy a thousand two hundred and threescore days, clothed in sackcloth.
Notice what they are clothed in?........Sackcloth, the only other time this is used in Revelation is the sixth seal. Connect the dots, you might see they are clothed in the knowledge of the 1260. And, since this is the last prophecy to go out, it might be important! :)

Hi Mike (so you're not Brian Irish after all
Sackcloth is mourning clothes. I can see that they're clothed in knowledge of the reason for mourning. But...why do you see the 1260 days as the knowledge and not the time in which they prophesy (if that's what you're suggesting?)
Do they prophesy about that time or during that time, or both? I continue to see it as the days in which they teach because....
Revelation 12:6 (666) And the woman fled into the wilderness, where she hath a place prepared of God, that they should feed her there a thousand two hundred and threescore days.
Are they going to feed the days to her or feed her during the days?
Please explain. Also, I am seeing the sun, moon, stars, earthquake, blood...everything, in a non-literal way. Could it be both? Sure, but I'll have to rely on your knowledge of this to see it literally.
Here's another of those :blink: Rev. 6:12, 12:6...12:60 days. The 1260 days are 666.
