Always Read Chapters: Matt 24, Rev chapter 12, Luke 12, Rev 12, Dan 12, Rom 12, Heb 12, Zech 12
Rev 13, 14, 17, Isa 18, 30 1 Tim chapters 1, 4, and 6, 2 Tim chapters 1, 2 and 3 THE TEN VIRGINS, (Matt 25:1-13) Your questions on chronological order of coming events the Epistles I and II Timothy
Jesus has resolved the question of the gap of almost 2,000 years between the 69th week and the 70th by mentioning in Matt. 24:15 the abomination of desolation, and connecting it with Dan. 9:27. We should rest on His words. He is answering about His “Parousia” Presence with us speaking to us, as to disciples, and seeing us at the end of the Church times calling it the Last Day, and finishing all at the consummation of the eon meaning when the times of the Gentiles will be fulfilled.
If we would check the texts, we will pinpoint two different words in Greek about the
a’ end of the Church and
b’ the consummation of the age, as there are two different words also that indicate the same two parallel ends in Daniel! God is the Author of His books in perfect accuracy not disrupted by the language.
The a’ end in NT is “telos” Matt. 24:6, Matt. 24:14, while the equivalent in OT is “qets;” Dan. 9:26 (2 times); this a’ end ends along with the Parousia/ Resurrection/ Rapture day.
The b’ end in NT is “consummation” in Matt. 24:3, Matt. 13:39, Matt. 13:40, Matt. 13:49, Matt. 28:20, Mark 13:4, while the equivalent in OT is “qala’;” in Dan. 9:27 (consummation); Dan. 12:7 (accomplished), Dan. 12:7 (finished) along with the “time, times and half a time” will take from the Parousia, Resurrection, Rapture [the saints will be broken up from the earth to scatter up in the sky to congregate with Jesus] until “all these things shall be finished” (Dan. 12:7).
THESE CERTAIN WORDS POINT TO THE END, and go hand in hand in Daniel and in the gospels, leaving no doubt that the gap must be there, and we must know it is preordained by God to take place for the accomplishment of His Plan.

Daniel 12:1
“Now at that time Michael, the great prince who stands guard over the sons of your people, will arise ..." Here we will see what Archangel Michael will do.
Revelation 12:7-9
“And there will be war in heaven…” From that we know the dragon, Satan, will suffer defeat by Archangel Michael coming against him with God’s host of angels; they "will force him to be cast down to the earth, and with him the fallen angels that will fight with him."
The stars in Matt. 24:29 here mean these fallen angels that are under Satan. The event of their fall is mentioned after
Matthew 24:29b
as part of the Sign “of the darkened sun and of the moon,”
Matthew 24:29c
“and (4) the stars will fall from the heaven, and the powers of (5) the heavens will be shaken.”
5"the heavens will be shaken.” – It means not only the shaking that will be caused by the war, but also the heavenly quake we read in
Heb. 12:26-28,
because the Mid-heaven must be emptied from all evil that has been possessing / occupying the firmament over and above our world and had freedom to travel back and forth on the earth for a long duration of time, in the six-thousand years. Now the Sign by the heaven’s shaking includes these spiritual invisible events in…
Revelation 6: 13
“…and the stars of the sky fell to the earth as the fig tree sheds its winter fruit when shaken by a gale.”
And Revelation 6:14
“The sky vanished like a scroll that is being rolled up, and every mountain and island was removed from its place.”
[Note. In Revelation, every verb of past tense must be shifted to future tense, e.g., ‘fell’ = “will fall,” ‘vanished’ = “will vanish,” ‘was removed’ = “will be removed,” etc. John describes events he saw in visions, as done to him, but to us will be the events to come in the future].
The area will have to be shaken and cleansed and ready to be in proper order as to become the beautiful meeting place for the events of the Parousia of the Lord the Resurrection and our Rapture.
This is the only prudent way for humanity to be received by the Lord Jesus Christ in this gathering reception. There has to be a complete absence of wickedness in the firmament area, by shaking, casting down, cleansing, and making the area a desert [Gr. ἔρημος “eremos” uninhabited] -the word is found in
Rev. 12:14, a place for the woman, the Bride, God would prepare a place to be of “Her own, to be nourished there for time, times and half of time away from the face of the snake;” for 3 ½ years!
This biblical setting is flawless. Except here, one might ponder questioning something, on which we might also want the answer.
Why the Lord in the description of the sign in Matt. 24:29, lists first the physical appearance of the sun and moon and not the spiritual war and shakeup in Mid-heaven that in chronological order must happen before?
I believe the things written here grouped in one or two verses are by God’s preference in an order from major to minor and not in chronological order. For example, first, He would mention the heavens, then the earth; first, He would mention the sun, then the stars. Love is the first fruit of the Spirit, and then all nine fruits based on love are itemized, etc. Why are they not stated in the reverse that would end in love?
It is only a matter of preference. I say that, also for Matt. 24:29, because we know from other chapters the correct order of that group of events: especially on this we have the description given in…
Isaiah 13:10,
“For the stars of the heavens, and their constellations cause not their light to shine, darkened has been the sun in its going out, And the moon causes not its light to come forth.” Here we see the order written in chronological order, as in the proper list in the Sign, as we have in
SECTION B, B1 EVENTS IN THE FIRMAMENT: INVISIBLE to Us for they are of Spiritual Nature.
On the other hand, could the stars be unshown spiritual, invisible angelic events, be a sign to us? These are only happening at the shakeup in the firmament. None can see or notice that.
The Sign is referenced also in the gospel of Mark because this sign is related to the question in
Mark 13:4, “and what is the Sign of when all these things will be consummated?
There must, first, other events transpire, that is the fulfillment of certain prophecies must be preceded according to the Word of God before the Rapture of the Church.
No. 1, Watchmen will "blow the trumpet in Zion" (Joel 2:1 & 2:15). Chosen faithful who must be preaching the Truth will become messengers of future difficult times to happen in the days of sorrow, they will fulfill the next 5th Feast of Trumpets (Lev 23:23-25). It is the most important ministry before the Rapture. With them, many of us, we now receive the call to prepare the path of the Lord's “Parousia” Presence Who will come in the firmament, with the Resurrection of the ones asleep, and the Rapture of the living, the Bride of His Church. Then, it comes the one following, the Feast afterward the 5th, which from old of Old Testament times has been expected to be fulfilled, the most Great and Terrible Day of God's Plan: That will be the 6th Day of Atonement or Heb Yum Kippur (Lev 23:16-32), then it is "the Day of the Lord the Great and the Prominent Day" (Acts 2:20, Joel 2:31 /or Joel 3:4), the Day of God's three last Trumpets and Woes and seven Vials of His Great Judgment. That one is the actual Day, at its start, then coincides our Rapture!
