About Revelation Timeline Decoded
The Revelation Timeline Decoded studies are a result of the Holy Spirit revealing many truths to me during the last two years.
Much of the information on this website has been taught for 1,800 years by the great theologians, and it’s only been during the last few centuries that Christ’s Church has lost the truth about prophecy fulfillment.
In 2 Timothy 4:3-4 Paul warned us, “For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine, but according to their own desires, because they have itching ears, they will heap up for themselves teachers; and they will turn their ears away from the truth, and be turned aside to fables.”
Up until a few years ago, I was a Christian who simply believed what my Pastors had taught me about the end times.
What they taught lined up with what my John MacArthur Study Bible says, which lined up with what I hear popular Pastors like David Jeremiah and Chuck Swindoll teach.
They’ve been to seminary, so surely they knew the proper explanations to prophecy.
There was no reason to doubt them…
Until the Holy Spirit started me on a journey that revealed how the Bible explains prophecy fulfillment, which is contrary to many of the teachings from Pastors today.
The Lord put on my heart to look to theologians who had not been corrupted by all of the deceptions, which have really taken hold during the last century.
The best tool that the Lord put in my path is SwordSearcher Bible software, as it gives me easy access to Bible commentaries from the top Bible scholars of the 1700 and 1800’s, such as:
- Albert Barnes’ Notes on the New and Old Testaments.
- John Calvin’s Commentaries.
- Adam Clarke’s Commentary on the Bible.
- Commentary from the 1599 edition of the Geneva Bible.
- John Gill’s Exposition of the Entire Bible.
- Jamieson-Fausset-Brown Commentary Critical and Explanatory on the Whole Bible.
- Matthew Henry’s Whole Bible Commentary.
- Matthew Poole’s Commentary on the Holy Bible.
- John Wesley’s Bible Notes.
I am blessed to stand on the shoulder of these great theologians, who have taught me so much about the Word of God.
You can find some of their commentaries at www.studylight.org/com/ but SwordSearcher let’s you quickly read through all of the commentaries about a particular passage. And it gives you the Strong’s word listing, a Bible dictionary and much more.
Other people who God has placed in my life during the past few years are:
Henry Grattan Guinness, who wrote Romanism and the Reformation: From the Standpoint of Prophecy which gives the explanation for the prophecies in Daniel, in 2 Thessalonians 2, in John epistles and Revelation. It’s an excellent study that exposes The Holy Roman Empire and it’s role in end-times Bible prophecy. Click here to read it online.
Ralph Woodrow’s book Great Prophecies Of The Bible covers the second coming of Christ, Matthew 24, the 70 weeks of Daniel and the antichrist. Highly recommended reading!
Pastor Samuel Pestes, who wrote “The Stonecutter’s Bride“, “Ancient Nation’s Rise To Strike Again“, and “Abraham’s Message To The 21st Century“; Pastor Sam has had a great impact on my beliefs about the 70 Weeks of Daniel prophecy, and Jesus New Covenant as the fulfillment of the Everlasting Covenant that God made to Abraham.
Pastor Steve Wohlberg. Steve is a Seventh Day Adventist and though I don’t agree with some SDA beliefs, his teachings on End Times Delusions about the rapture, tribulation, antichrist and Israel, are Biblically sound. Click here to watch his videos. Click here to read about his End Times Delusions book.
Robert Carignola’s book “The Present Reign Of Jesus Christ” explained much of the fulfillment of Revelation.
Phillip Mauro’s study “The Seventy Weeks and the Great Tribulation” taught me so much about the fulfillment of the 70 Weeks of Daniel prophecy, the prophecy in Daniel 11 and 12, and Jesus’ Olivet Discourse.
Charles A. Jenning’s book “The Book Of Revelation: From An Israelite And Historicist Interpretation“
Victor McGowan’s book “The Revelation and the History of Christendom: Prophecy Fulfilled to the End of Our Time“
I’ve spent many hundreds of hours reading through many books and commentaries, listening to many audios, and watching many videos.
Some Bible commentaries, such as from John Gill, are extremely detailed and long.
Most people are too busy to read these books and watch the videos, so the Lord uses me to make the explanations more concise and easy to read.
The goal of this website is to teach how the Bible defines prophecy terms, and to show the fulfillment of many of the prophecies.
The best way to detect a fake Dollar Bill is to know the real thing so well, that the fake ones are easy to spot.
The same is true with prophecy. When you diligently study the Bible, so that you know how it defines terms and how it reveals its fulfillment; when a Pastor is teaching contrary to these things, you know that they are teaching false prophecy.
So who am I and what gives me the authority to teach these things?
I am not Seventh Day Adventist, though I have learned from some SDA teachers who diligently study prophecy.
I was blessed to grow up in a Christian family and attended Baptist Churches during the early part of my life. I’ve been blessed by the verse-by-verse studies at several Calvary Chapel Churches. But I am not part of any denomination.
I have not been to seminary or a Bible school.
I am simply a child of the Most High God, who has the Holy Bible as my guide and the Holy Spirit as my teacher.
I have committed my life to learning and teaching God’s truth about prophecy, and I work full-time in this ministry.
I believe that the Lord shows me many insights because I hunger to know truth, so that our Lord is glorified and the enemy is defeated.
Proverbs 2:1-5 says, “My son, if you receive my words, And treasure my commands within you, So that you incline your ear to wisdom, And apply your heart to understanding; Yes, if you cry out for discernment, And lift up your voice for understanding, If you seek her as silver, And search for her as for hidden treasures; Then you will understand the fear of the Lord, And find the knowledge of God.”
Prophecy fulfillment is fairly straight-forward and easy to understand, but it is all of the deceptions that the enemy has created that make it difficult to see the truth.
My End Times Deceptions website covers the fulfillment of the 70th Week of Daniel, the Abomination Of Desolation Deception, Daniel 12 Fulfillment, and a Modern Bible Deception Verse Study In the End Times Antichrist Deception you will learn that most seminaries are teaching prophecy fulfillment concepts that hide the Antichrist.
And the leaven of these false teachings spreads around to Pastors and Christians, so that the majority are deceived.
My Roman Catholic Beliefs website gives a concise summary of how the Roman Catholic Church is the subject of most Bible prophecy fulfillment.
Popes have proclaimed to be God, to forgive sins, and that salvation is only through the Catholic Church. They have killed over 100 million Christians during the Dark Ages and the Inquisition. And the Jesuits seek to push the world into a New World Order where everyone will worship their False Messiah.
Jesuits priests are spread around the world, and have deceived 1.2 Billion Catholics into believing in a false salvation by works through the Catholic Church.
And because Christ’s Church doesn’t understand that the Roman Catholic Church is Mystery Babylon the Great, the Mother of Harlots, Christians are not evangelizing Catholics to call them out of the Church and into true salvation through Jesus Christ.
My friend, I encourage you to be a Berean and search these things out, don’t take my word for it, don’t seek to defend a position, just seek the truth.
Because until the Church understands the grand deception that has blinded her, she is unable to fight to overcome the enemy in the power of Jesus Word.
My heart breaks for Christians as they have been so deceived, and have no clue about how the future is going to play out, so they are like the foolish virgins who are unprepared for Christ’s return.
My tears are shed for Pastors, who are unknowingly teaching the prophecy concepts of the Antichrist, for they will be held accountable for misleading their flocks.
I pray in the power of Yahusha (Jesus) name that He will give you eye salve to see the truth.
In His love,
David Nikao

David, I just listened to the Fuel Projects videos on the Book of Revelation. His view did not seem to suggest the Historicist view. Do you have any comment on this? I am studying and agree with you. I was wondering why you have them on your site. The Fuel Project does have information in many areas that is valuable but I was questioning his study of Revelation.
Hope to hear from you,
Sheryl
Hi Sheryl 🙂 The Fuel Project videos teach futurism. I reviewed each video and provided counterpoints on this website http://christianitybeliefs.org/revelation-fuel-project-guide/
On the Revelation Timeline Decoded website I am only presenting the Historical view. I updated the third seal page today, as it had the Fuel Project video by mistake. Is that what you’re referring to? http://christianitybeliefs.org/revelation-timeline-decoded/the-third-seal-of-revelation-6/
Thanks, David
David, Yours is the first site that has not frightened and confused me. I have never been good at discernment. Growing up, I always prayed that all the other doors be locked, and for God to leave the one He wants me to go through. He has never let me down. I decided I have to find the door in these studies that are true. I’ve followed a number and I always go to bed frightened that I will not know Him when the Lord comes. Your site has not caused fear, so I am sort of “going through this door of yours” and know that God will not forsake me now. I was raised Catholic and I absolutely agree with everything you’ve said. I consider myself a follower of the life and teachings of Jesus Christ with no particular denomination, but a Christian nonetheless. I have no fear that I will die, but I do have fear I will die without Him because I believed what is said on the Internet. I will certainly continue to pray, but look forward to your insightful commentary. I have an extensive post-graduate education, but all the theses in the world do not prepare you for the Truth. Thanks! I keep checking in. May God continue to bless you with your studies. Sandy
Your comment makes me smile Sandra! The Jesuits of Rome have infiltrated seminaries and Bible schools, to mislead Pastors about Futuristic explanations of the fulfillment of Revelation which cause fear in Christians. Once you see that most of Revelation has been fulfilled during the last 1,900 years, you get a sense of relief.
It’s not to say that there won’t be tribulation in the future as the Jesuits push the world into the One World Government, and Satan makes a final push to defeat the Church of Messiah, but the Scriptures tell us that he will not prevail. All of those frightening stories that so many Pastors traumatize us with, are not Scripturally justified.
And when you see the historical fulfillment of prophecy, you see how Messiah has been active through the last 1,900 years, empowering His set-apart ones to battle against the enemy.
Contact me anytime with questions about the studies. I tell people that understanding Revelation is not too hard, but it’s the futuristic deceptions that have been programmed into our minds, which makes it hard to see.
Grace and peace and love to you in the Father’s name, David
David, Thank you so very much. I was truly blessed with your letter. I do have a MAJOR question. Do you know what the Mark of the Beast is, and will the Lord make it clear to us not to take the Mark?
Thanks again,
Sandy
Sandra, there are two fulfillments of the mark of the beast; one in Revelation 14 which was fulfilled during the 17th-18th century, and one that will be fulfilled when the Jesuits push the world into their One World Government.
The first fulfillment was about the people of France, Spain and other countries, who revered (mark on their forehead) the Pope, and who obeyed (mark on the right hand, actions) his command to kills the saints. They killed millions of saints.
Vengeance was poured out on these people during the first four bowls of Revelation, as France descended into complete atheism; As hundreds of French people, including the government and Roman Catholic Church leaders, were killed during the French Revolution when their blood was poured out in the same places that they had killed the saints; and with the Napoleonic Wars which were extremely bloody.
Here is a study that talks more about that. http://christianitybeliefs.org/revelation-timeline-decoded/revelation-14-the-mark-of-the-beast/
The future fulfillment will happen when the Jesuits push the world into their One World Government, when all countries will be subservient to them. This will happen after WW III and no doubt there will be a worldwide financial collapse.
The Jesuits will offer a One World Currency to help restore peace, but it will be contingent on you revering and obeying the Pope, the beast of Revelation 13. Pope Francis is the first Jesuit Pope, which is significant.
If you obey the commands, then you have the mark on you.
They may use a tattoo or RFID chip to control whether you buy and sell, but the true mark is your obeying their orders.
If you don’t obey, then you will be killed or shut out of their financial system.
In the midst of all of that, in Revelation 16, Messiah proclaimed “Behold, I come as a thief. Blessed is he that watcheth, and keepeth his garments, lest he walk naked, and they see his shame.”
I believe that those who do not know the truth about prophecy fulfillment may falter in the last days, will be caught off-guard, as when a thief breaks in, which may result in them either obeying the Pope, or being killed.
I believe that those who do know prophecy fulfillment, who watcheth and stays pure, and do know the context of Messiah’s return, may be protected from the beast and its system.
Does that makes sense?
That makes perfect sense. Thanks. I am going to read more on the site, and if I have questions I’ll get back in touch so I’m not bothering you too much. Believe me, I would never bow to the Pope. I was so devoted to our Lord as a Catholic, but it was an absolutely exhausting religion! You get out of the confessional and you’re practically back in there within the day for some what they called “venial” sins. There was no way to win. You couldn’t do enough good works to “earn” your way in. I went to a Baptist church once with a friend, and I felt like a fresh and extremely logical breath of air! My debt was paid on that cross, once and for all. The Catholic Church had kept me in that bondage for years. So worshiping the Pope is not on my agenda! Thanks again David, I’m sure after I catch up with what’s on the site, I will be back with questions…I have so many! Sandy
Hello David –
I ran across your website quite by accident, but I’m so glad I did. Much of what you have matches the stuff I’ve gotten from Chick Publications. Do you use the KJV or are you more partial to the NKJV. I use both so I like to see where other people are. I appreciate your work. God bless and have a great day.
Paul
Hello Paul, thank you for your comment. I think that Chick Publications teaches the historical fulfillment of prophecy, so that is why the explanations are similar. I use the King James for reference, and for Strong’s word references. I read from an Aramaic-English New Testament, as it adds some contextual insight. And I read from The Scriptures (the ISR 98), as I believe that it translates words better than the KJ and NKJ.
Thanks David. Keep up the great work for the Lord. God bless and have a blessed day!
Thank you Paul! I have created a more detailed explanation of the fulfillment of Revelation on my Revelation Timeline Decoded website. http://revelationtimelinedecoded.com
Keep learning and growing in the truth!
David
Amen Sandra, praise the Father for pulling you out of that false religion. They truly program people to never leave and be dependent on them, which makes it difficult for Catholics to come out.
David, per my last note, I think from your writing I can see myself as to why only so much information could be given. Because love has to be a choice of free will for it to be love, then information for the sake of convincing us would in great part take away that free-will so critical to our love for Him.
