Despite various interpretations of time and prophecy, we are living within the margin of error. Scripture points to the Jewish feasts of Trumpets and Atonement but we still do not know the year of the Rapture and Second Coming. Many people talk about an endless future with better opportunities for our children and grandchildren. That is just not true. God's time tells us we are the people living in the End Times when Jesus Christ will return. We see the final preparations for the Tribulation. We will witness our unsaved family, friends and neighbors left behind. In ten years, we will be on the edge of the apocalypse or the world will be inside the Tribulation.

2016 may be the last election for a US president that presides over a superpower and leads the free world.

I beheld till the [eagle's] wings were plucked … and the
the lion/bear/leopard rules. Daniel 7:4, Revelation 13:2
Each election cycle, we are told the election is the most important election. Then four years later we are again told that election is the most important election. But the 2016 presidential election will be the most important election ever held, past or future.

Through the World Wars, Iraq Wars and End Wars, the Bible describes in many dramatic details the great rise and even greater fall of the United States and rise of the next world superpower. See Fall of America. I am not saying this is the last presidential election. It is possible that we vote in other presidential elections. There could be more presidents too. However, the Iraq War tells us the fifth trumpet is completed and the sixth trumpet is next. We are running out of time to fix our problems at home, stabilize the world and keep the peace.

The sixth angel sounded, and I heard a voice from the four horns of the golden altar which is before God, Saying to the sixth angel which had the trumpet, Loose the four angels which are bound in the great river Euphrates. And the four angels were loosed, which were prepared for an hour, and a day, and a month, and a year, to slay the third part of men [2.5 billion]. And the number of the army of the horsemen were two hundred million: and I heard the number of them (Revelation 9:13-16).

After the presidential campaign concludes in November 2016, the winning candidate serves until January 2021. If the president is reelected in 2020, they serve until January 2025. This may be the last open seat election until 2024. Plenty of prophecy can happen between now and then.

The world crumbles before our eyes. Watch out for that giant red Chinese dragon as it raises its ugly head on the way to the Euphrates. See China Superpower. The Islamic green horse in the form of ISIS and Iran threatens world peace. See Iraq War III and Nuclear Iran. The red Russian bear is finished hibernating and back to its old Soviet ways in Ukraine and now Syria. See Ukraine. The European Union, led by France, Germany and the United Kingdom, dominates the world's agenda through its weak but collective regional power. See France Attacked. America's foreign policy has turned against Israel and for a Palestine state to appease our oil interests in the Middle East. America's days as superpower are numbered.
Prophecy is about time. If Jesus Christ was crucified between 27 and 33 AD, then the Second Coming of Jesus Christ could occur 2000 years later between 2027 and 2033. Since the length of the Tribulation is seven years, the Tribulation could start between 2020 and 2027. There is evidence that Jesus Christ was born as early as October of 7 BC and the cross was in 27 AD. See First Coming. The Jewish calendar helps us understand that the Tribulation begins and ends on the 10th of Tishri, the Day of Atonement (September or October). See Jewish Calendar and Tishri. If there are no other calendar errors, the seven year Tribulation window begins about 2019 to 2021. So the next president's terms of 2017-2021 and 2021- 2025 intersects with the beginning of the Tribulation window. I do not know which year but we are that close to the end of this age.

We still have the responsibility to pray for our leaders, to pray for revival in our nation, to participate by voting and encouraging others to vote. We must wake up, watch and work together as the Church until that day comes. Remember, we are living at the end of the End Times.

If I shut up heaven that there be no rain, or if I command the locusts to devour the land, or if I send pestilence among my people; If my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land. (2 Chronicles 7:13-14).
